"What's your 🔥🔥hot take🔥🔥 on the show ❤️🤍🖤💛 RWBY? No actual unpopular opinion tho 😅😂🤣 because that'll make you a hater ROFLFMAO 😍😘👠. ONLY SERIOUS HIVETHINK FOR REAL FANS."

That thread is bound to be the biggest popular opinion circlejerk ever since r/politics and r/unpopularopinion. There is no actual hot take, no actual criticism, and will only consist of Fujoshitbait and hivethink.

Monty was not a good writer and although he had big ideas he was not capable of bringing them togather in a coherent way. The constant attitude that this show is Monty's "baby" and that Monty had a "vision" for the show has held down the writers and fans from moving on and letting the show evolve and move in it's own direction.

That's why Miles and Kerry were brought on (though some would prefer Shane and Sheena in the roles of those two)

Well, Miles and Kerry have been involved in development long enough that on any other IP, they'd get their own "Created By" Credit unless they turned it down and let Monty have that recognition by himself.

As for "moving on", if the fans and crew were (more) willing to welcome criticism and if they bothered to address things like Shane's letter (on their own or if something regarding the contents and implications of it leaked before that ship sailed), that wouldn't be holding them back. Then again, people are talking about the only way truths about Monty's vision getting out will be through leaks or some statement after cancellation about what would have happened means I won't hold my breath in that regard.

This is what I was trying to say, but you worded it far better.

Given how little presence RWBY has had in Japan since Volume 4 wrapped, I'd give it a 25% chance of doing well (or they deliberately only printed a limited run but don't say as much so they can go ZOMG WE SOLD OUT) or commercially just flopping like a fish because by all accounts, Volume 4 did a lot of genuine damage to the series over there and Blazblue's sales indicate RWBY don't have a lot of stopping power solo.

I can see Volume 6 doing well if some people read that Neo got content, but that's it. 5 could only do well if everyone went in blind and didn't hear a single thing about the season's quality drop.

"Blu-ray".

This is assuming that they'll sell like hotcakes. They really didn't think this through, did they? They're not gonna stream them? :story:

Also, found this in Vex's feed.

Really, Arryn?

"Something special". Sure, whatever you say.

They say this about every volume and the entire thing blows ass every time.

I've been on another subreddit that generally talks more critically about the show called r/RWBYCritics. It's a much less hostile environment than you'd think.

In my experience almost all critics of RWBY are fans of the show that have soured on it. Despite what the fans of the show think RWBY is in no way mainstream and does not appear in the popular dialogue, the only people who care enough to actually discuss it are people who either watched it and like it, or people who watched it and used to like it, or people who are fans of Rooster Teeth in a broader sense and thus are forced to know RWBY since it's RT's big property.

And yet any time RWBY makes a product placement in some movie, everyone goes "OMG! RWBY IS MAINSTREAM NOW!"
