I had lost my faith in this wiki, then I saw this post and I regained a little bit of it, I agree with OP. we have a series with 4 main characters and by the first season(don't give me the volume stuff counter, whatever name they give to them, they still act as seasons) we know almost nothing about them, and we know nothing about another one. And what we know about the other 2 is not that good, Even if I do like Weiss a lot, her back ground is still weak and kinda cliche at ocations... Now, I agree we need more action, I wouldn't mind the tons of drama and little action, if the actual drama was as good or better than the action, but no, it is not better, most of the characters are cliche, and and most of the plot is predictible. Every single mayor event I was able to predict it. And that is not good. The series is not bad, but is not good either, it is a mediocre series.

Again OP, thanks for being some one who is not biased towards RWBY, that judges it for what it really is, and yes I also do agree that it is full of false advertising, Monty has told a shit ton load of lies, First he said that Ruby and Yang were not real siblings, that it was just like when you call a friend "bro" when Yang called Ruby "sis". Then the series comes out and BAM! they are real siblings... And they have different last name, and we get NO explanation of it... Bullshit! Why? "we don't want to give everything away on the first season"... More BS, come on, I see 2 siblings that have different last names, the first thing that I would ask would be why, 99.999999% of the people in this world would do so! yet, we get no answer, no single character in the series gives a shit about it, not even the said siblings friends? does make sense at all... What happened? most likely it was a merchandising trick... False advertising if you ask me...

TL;DR: OP is right, the series is very cliche and the only real good thing about it is the action, but it is not giving us enough of it.
