Thanks! It's nice to be able to spur some discussion.

And you have a very good observation; the mere fact that they're hunted for sport gives us an very concrete idea of how humanity's attitude towards them has changed. That probably has a lot to do with the number of people wanting to become H&Hs; since the Grimm aren't seen as too much of a threat, they either don't really think about the dangers of the job, or assume that it'll be easy. It seems like the show is building up to a point where humanity will be forced to face the full wrath of the Grimm once again, and be reminded of who they're dealing with.

And I completely forgot about Dust! It makes sense for the H&H legacy to begin after it was discovered, but that makes me wonder what people did before then.
