I like Yang and Weiss vs the skater and the trumpet player. Thought that trumpet player was unique
Prepare for disappointment.
Oh yes. Cloning. Very unique.
Interesting. You like larger scale fights that employ tactics and environment and creativity over choreography.
Honestly, the powers in this show are lame.
What, you don't like "doesn't sperg out emotionally" as a super power? What about "hyperactive"?
Blake's clones and Pyrrah's Violent J powers are probably the best.
No wait, thought of another one, puzzle autism.
And they get progressively worse, to the point where they just give up and stop giving characters any. Or, if they do, it's only during a panel or some other obscure interview that they contradict every other time a writer opens their mouth.
might be the history teacher in me, but I tend to like tactics and large scale fights
Large scale fights that employ tactics and environment and creativity? There were only two such fights in the entire series. The Nevermore fight and the food fight. Three if you count the docks fight vs Torchwick as large scale.
Honestly RWBY's action peaked with the Nevermore fight and has never achieved the same stellar execution. I've rewatched the first volume at least a dozen times and I still find myself really enjoying it every time it kicks into high gear.
My favorite scene is the gun-kata sequence in Sun vs Torchwick. I know it was ripped off the final fight from Equilibrium, but those few seconds had my jaw hanging open.
I love that everyone else got superpowers and all Ironwood got was autism, yet he is still an absolute and complete badass who completely outclasses all of them both in combat and with his objectively far superior (and correct) plans, strategies and an iron fucking will. The only mistake he made was not killing his supposed "allies" who outright betrayed him due to their obscene stupidity.
I will never forgive them for what they did to Ironwood. I was so pleasantly surprised when they got to Atlas and he was actually like, the best man for the situation and totally had his shit together. Only for them to pull the rug out from under all his characterization in the most hamfisted and lazy way possible.
Miles is too much of a pussy to interrupt his girlfriend making out with another chick to try for a threesome, there's no way he could handle any firearm without crying.
Worse, instead of making the best of the situation & trying for a 3some. Miles is a massive cuck who brings his friends to watch his GF cheating on him with another girl in front of him. He doesn't even have enough dignity to later throw her out the project he supposedly owns.
You know, what I think the problem is with a lot of characters and their powers these days?
