User blog comment:Zolnir/RWBY Episode 5 Reviews & Assumptions/@comment-7472785-20130816191105

I believe for us to speculate what the next episode(s) will bring, we must first get an idea of where the first season will end. As the number of episodes to then is known, and limited, that doesn't leave too much room for epic story arcs. (And what would then the story of the future seasons be?)

Hence I believe the first season will not give us more than the final forming of the team. Not just in its composition, but in their understanding that they ARE a team, will work as such, and master their future adventures as a team in the next seasons.
