The story can continue after the main character dies, but only in an epilogue fashion. The villain has to be defeated before the main character dies, or the main character dies defeating the villain. Either way Ruby is still the hero, or I could agree to RWBY and JNR all being heroes of Remnant, but not Jaune alone. I disagree with because of an anime I watched. Gurren Lagann. One of my favoriate animes ever, and one of Monty's if i'm remembering correctly, I may be wrong though. Now Spoiler for anyone who hasn't seen it even though it's nearly a decade old.

In episode 8 the one character who thoughout the entire show up till that point was practically given and stamped with the Main Character Plot Armor was killed in the first major battle they had. Stabbed though the chest and died just like that. In the middle of the first 'season' Now there's a whole buisness there with him reviving himself to finish the fight, but at the end of the episode it is 100% canon that he is dead.

There are nineteen more epiodes until the end of the series. With the Deuteragonist ​taking over the role for the remaing episodes. He is mentioned in some way every single episode even though he died and is confirmed by the creator to actually be one of the weaker characters in the series in terms of power.

So that being, it's possibe that RWBY takes this route. With one of the four main characers dying and the rest remembering them thoughout the rest of the series, or even Team JNPR stepping up to claim the plate from them. RWBY is one of those shows where I can see that working. Hell, I mean Roosterteeth has killed off the one of the main characters in Red vs Blue in the sixth season and just had him live on though a memory. Literally.

Of course it's ypur opinion so you think whatever you want but right now its just harmless speculating.
