Ah yes. The blood and "nudity" would certainly be cause for demonetization. And as I had said in another thread, This volume already has the heroes separated, the relic and Jinn explained, Ozpin getting heavily mistrusted, Salem backstory beginning, and all in two episodes. If we looked back to Volume 3, all that happened at this point was Qrow's introduction, a tease of Winter and the first threads of the plot to destroy Beacon at the tournament itself.

I'd argue the first three volumes were much heavier on "shipping fodder" than anything more recently (though it has never been a viable concern. never). The show's plot was much more lighthearted and focused on romance with the dance arc, but people don't really ever talk down about the early volumes. If people had to bring up problems with shipping though, they should look at the early volumes. Not post-Beacon.
