I personally think they did more harm than good. The trailers themselves were awesome and worked as their own small stand-alone episodes if you wanted to call them that. They also did what a trailer is supposed to do; make you want to watch whatever they are showing. In that respect they did make us want to see the show.

However the problem we are facing now is that no one seems to be able to pick a point in time where these trailers take place, if they take place at all. I mean Weiss doesn't seem like the kind of person that does concerts or whatever. Not to mention some of the powers are inconsistent with the trailer, like how in the Yellow Trailer, Yang's hair burns golden light when she fights. However in the series it doesn't seem to glow as much or not at all. A lot of Weiss' Dust attacks she used against the Giant Armor don't really go with how Dust is used in the series.

Basically I was expecting an action-focused type show just going by the trailers; but what we got was another school-based drama. There is nothing wrong with that, but it was not what I was hoping for.
