Ruby is the one character that really bothers me, and it stems from the fact that she has virtually no character motivation whatsoever. All the other characters have some driving force behind their pursuit of being huntsmen and huntresses, but Ruby basically just wants to be one for the sake of being one.

What I would have done is put an emphasis on Summer, and given Ruby a drive to find out what happened to her (similar to Yang's pursuit of Raven). I find it quite odd that Ruby never talks about her mom, and even more odd that neither she nor anyone else even bothers to ask anyone with agency what the hell happened to her.

And, not to go off topic, but the whole Summer Rose situation really irks me. It's like everyone in the show just assumes that she's dead, even though nobody has a shred of evidence to support that, nor do they even explicitely state as much. They all just tiptoe around the issue, and make a point to never speak of her or the circumstances surrounding her disappearance. It's weird and I don't get it.
