Weiss - I honestly found myself pulling a Kaidan Alenko on Weiss (for the unaware, Kaidan is attracted to FemShep from the start if the player chooses to do so), so I don't really have such a problem with her. Weiss is more stuck in her shell if nothing more. Now, someone needs to break her out of it. Ruby seems to be doing a good job, but her antics are hard to resist. Good weapon choice too, I like Myrtenmaster's power.

Ruby - I never, ever, ever saw Ruby as being the oldest of the group. Ever. From day one it's been Ruby is the little can-kill-you-with-flip-of-finger and still look adorable kid. Still, her maturity is admirable. And that big killer scythe rifle is really, really fun to see.

Blake - This one's always reminded me of Emile-A239 if nothing else. They both have relatively little screen time (Emile doesn't even exist for half the campaign of Halo Reach), and when they do show up, it's toward the end (Emile only has a major role in The Pillar of Autumn...but that's only because he's the only one left.), Blake literally doesn't exist for several episodes of the story, in the middle, and although mentioned in a few, doesn't make any real prominent role until episode 8 onward. Still, she has her good points like Emile (Emile being the Halo Equivalent of Ghost with a boomstick), in Blake's case being a smart girl (who loves reading that Ninja's of Love book) who elements of the community believe she is a Faunus, with a dark past and who actually studies.

Yang - Reminded me of Minako Aino out of all of them. Has very similar clothing style (shows a lot...not that I'm complaining.), obsesses over her hair, which happens to be a similar color and length if anything, and is generally the most normal out of them. Blake has problems through that dark past of hers and the currently MIA Adam who she worked with. Ruby is relatively normal, but someone who fights Roman and comes out of it untouched and all the while smiling while dispatching various idiots with gigantic guns isn't that normal. Weiss...pampered princessess who don't practise what they preach (she hates childish behavior, and threw a temper tantrum.) are never normal. I do however, like the idea that Yang brings out with Ember Celica, shotgun gauntlets, very practical, no one will ever suspect that you are a threat until these powerful wristmounted shotguns pop out and blow your head off...I like that.

Now about JNPR, well...

Jaune - First off,  he really dropped off the fanbase's favored after Thursday. The clues were all there, he was the most incompetent, literally a walking embarressment, and never really did anything (out of all of them, he hasn't killed several enemies by himself so far.). Yet, he proved himself as a leader when that Death Stalker showed up, he coordinated Pyrrha's throwing of the shield, Nora's finishing blow, and generally rallied the team. Yet, he's a leader with a dark past, so things are going to be a little intersting. At the moment, he's also the one who has appeared in every episode and appeared in more episodes than anyone else, which is ironic, considering Ruby and her team is the focus of the series.

Nora - The psychotic ones are always the most popular. Reallly. Nora's the most popular in the current polls. She has a love of battle, a grenade launching banhammer, basically has a crush on Ren and could cause so much destruction while smiling and laughing the whole way. I see why she's the most popular. And she combines cuteness with an affinity for destruction.

Ren - Well, he hasn't really had that much character development just yet, he, much like Blake, is the Emile-A239 of the group, hasn't really had a lot of time to interact with anyone. He has what it takes to hold his own, I'm just saying he needs more time than just a three second cameo appearance like in the latest episode. He needs something along the lines of a prominent role like in episode two or something like that. That would be perfect for him to be fleshed out. And hey, he's voiced by Monty Oum. That right there is a good thing.

Pyrrha - I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who couldn't resist saying "THIS IS SPARTA!" Upon seeing her. Pretty sure. Pyrrha's generally been popular in the community at large since her introduction, which mainly involved breaking Jaune's neck with a spear while not actually breaking it at all (it's a modelling error, his neck appears broken in at least one instance). She's essentially the Wonder Woman of the group.

All in all, it's a good show, little short (but then again, I was always into long stories like Star Wars, so this five minute show thing is really a shock.), but good nonetheless, with good character development. It's just that the short time each episode has doesn't leave much room to develop all the characters equally.
