Jaune...the hell! Just let people help you. Everyone at beacon has had teachers, thats why their so good. Am I the only one who doesn't like this part of jaune, not the feeling weak part but the asshole part that push everyone away. It's like shinji only a bit more realistic. I think a lot of Jaune's lines on the rooftop scene came mainly from bitterness. I'm not saying he's fishing for compliments or drowning in self-pity, but I don't think he entirely meant what he said to Pyrrha. At least not in the fashion he said it.

In my opinion, Jaune is just now coming to terms with the fact that he's in over his head. I suppose he simply thought that by going to Beacon, he would automatically become a good fighter--he didn't really have a plan for getting there. It's a pretty nasty kick in the head to realize that you aren't really improving. I think he really does want Pyrrha to help him, but admitting it would just be too galling for him.
