Egads, wall of text makes my eyes bleed...

Take a deep breath, fart if you are feeling a little pent up, and relax. We're only just wrapping up the first 'chapter'.

Episodes 1-8 are something of the 'introduction and origin" story

Episodes 9-14 have been much needed world-building via some character development that needs to happen before the Shit Gets Real for the big finale episodes coming up. Jaune will likely get his tutoring from Pyrrha behind the scenes before 15's timeframe and will have shown 'marked' improvements.

15-16 we will likely see the story take off full time. Whether the episodes will get longer will depend on the time the RWBY team can allocate to the project going forward. They've already established that they've more-or-less streamlined the production process, so we may be able to see 10 minute episodes a bit more often during the character-development phases.
