I understand what you try to say about Blake and Sun, really. But It still doesn't work. The way it is shown in the actuall show - Blake just does not care. The way you say it is smth like "Blake didn't have another choice/option". I say that she had. Even after Sun was wounded, it changed nothing.

Well, Blake could said that she's leaving to Sun - why not? He have seen Blake leaving - was it wrong to say: "I need to sort some tings out, so I have to leave for now. Tell my teammates that if the hate me fot it - I understand ".

But no. The audience is told that Blake runs - out of fear, for now. In V4 she doesn't sem feared.

About Weiss - thank you for bothering to remind me the songs' lyrics/ the events of manga, but it was not that necessary, really. I remember it clearly. But you are right and that is what I tried to say: the way of storytelling in actual show has too many flaws for now. "Show don't tell" should work here. I just don't like that RWBY songs make a better job showing characters' intentions than the show itself - though with a proper writing they should be just a supplement (a brilliant supplement, as far as the songs in this show are really great, I give my credit for them).

I also agree with your point about Sun - I know, It's hard to write so many characters at once, but turning some of them into a background for another character... Well, it's just not good.

I have no problems with teamwork - what I was talking about was storytelling, not fighting scenes.

That is the way that should be. I mean, yes, It was her original intention. But what I call a bad writing is the way it was showed: Weiss says that her brother was just a replacement of her. She doesn't talk about his intentions, she doesn't ask what is he going to bring into SDC politics in future. BTW, she says the same thing to her father - "You're not even a Schnee!" Despite what I think about her father, that was really shitty. Weiss seems arrogant in V4 - though, from the first three volumes I know that she is not, she managed to came through this.

If you still don't understand my point, make an experiment: show someone sho knows nothing about RWBY Weiss' episodes from V4 and ask, what are the reasone of her crying. I'm sure, the answer will surprise you.

Still sorry for my mistakes, meh. x_x
