User blog comment:Varzan Deodinm Beldinm/The "meh" factor of this show has finally gotten to me. ( please read, then judge.)/@comment-10380701-20131011020616/@comment-24038268-20131011022453

I heard that Monty originally designed JNPR as the "B-Team," then later decided to make them full-fledged main characters. By that time, he probably already started advertising the series as RWBY.

I personally like Team JNPR more (considering that Pyrrha is my favorite character and probably the one whose past I'm most interested in), but I can respect your decision. I think that right now, RWBY's simply "light entertainment." It's not designed to be earth-shattering as a whole, but we get scenes that are just really appealing. I don't know if my opinion would change after seeing it all on DVD (hopefully with most of its errors fixed), but so far it's just another one of those "look forward to it every week" things.
