And furthermore, other Anime (and other shows, like Star Trek DS9) are capable of having loads of developed characters by having them introduced gradually (which I can see RT getting right), and having loads of time(about 30-45 minutes) to develop each one in the episode's sub-plot while allowing the main plot to take center stage at the same time (and even the rare treat of having the two be reversed and the main plot is about the development) and some shows even have more than 20 episodes per season. However RWBY runs on 10-15 minutes each and with even less episodes now totaling in 15(?) episodes, less than 19 from this last season (which even then, only had 5 min long episodes) and are still introducing 22 more characters, each (as Miles said) with their own backstories and storyarcs to be added in addition to the 8 who still need further development from their previous arcs, totaling in 30 characters in the First Season. That's insane.....
