Besides, name-calling doesn't mean it's supposed to be an insult or even offensive. People engage in name-calling often in social interactions and it's not always derogative.

2-So? Biased all the same. You loved a character we knew nothing about, and when he turns out to be nothing like we expected, you believe said character you loved can become good, or at least reach an idealistic conclusion.

To the point you are trying to pass said character off as Sane (when he isn't) at the very least, and it grows from there.

3-They didn't. I was mostly guessing. Blake is currently 17-18, she was in the WF since she was a kid, Adam had an abusive relationship with her for a while.........it's hard to say exactly how old he is compared to her. My guess is "half a decade"......because going any bit higher would make the whole thing very pedophilical.

4-1) It generally means that: That someone is crazy. When one wants to say "Cold-blooded" one usually uses words like "Cruel" or "Inhuman" or "Monster". 2) The avatar is only a part, in my opinion.

5-.........How did they seem to be dead on? In fact, the closest any has gotten to being dead-on, is Pyrrha dying.

6-Agreed to some extent. The show needed to get dark for the threats to become believable, but they went too far too soon, leading to a polarizing contrast with everything that came before. 1) Yeah, but I'm a 31 yr old man. Talking like that sets a tone. Comes off like belittling someone. There's no need.

2) I don't think he's insane for the same reason I don't think other criminals are insane. Killing people out of rage when you have full knowledge of what you're doing is a sane action. It's just that you're so mad you don't care about the consequences or the morality. I'm saying he's aware what he's doing is wrong. He's not the Joker who's basking in immoral behaviour. He throwing a murderous tantrum.

3) I don't know if they'll ever say his age but I want to believe RWBY isn't going Law and Order on us and we have pedophiles and rapist. Then again, he's a villain. Anything goes for them as Venture Bros has taught us.

4-2) I picked this avatar at a time when I couldn't find any cool pictures of Ren. This show has a bad track record with males. Most of comedic and add little to the story unless they're a villain, and if they're good then the only ones really pulling their weight in the lore is Qrow, Ironwood and Oz. In the beginning I thought Adam was a dark hero, a Batman who kills. But I see I was wrong. If I change my avatar again, it'll likely be Qrow or Ren or Torchwick. The ladies of the show are fine. But they're like the vanilla and I want Cookie and Cream.

5) I was thinking they were dead on with how Jaune was being harassed by Cardin, and Nora being a battle loving female Thor and Weiss being pale as snow and consider beautiful, and Glynda good witch and her Bitty-Bootie Boo telekinesis (even though that's more Cinderella's godmother). And Ozpin being the "man behind the curtain" who turns out to be not all that powerful despite all the reverence he gets.

6) No way. Before everything was sun shine and rainbows. The 3 intro is the best because it laid down the law that this was the start of some hardcore epicness. No more school life shipping war nonsense. I wanna see sweet Lord of the Rings quests with epic Akira level battles and villains as smart as Light from Deathnote or as evil and insane as Darksied from DC's New Gods and Superman. To me, they needed to get dark and serious because for so long all we had as a stuck up mean girl pulling the wool over everyone's eyes and a charming yet narcissitic sociopath running cons. NOW WE HAVE MAD MAX JRPG STYLE WITH ALL OUR FAVORITE HEROES GOING TO THE FUCKING WIRE TAKING THEIR SKILLS OUT ON THE ROAD AND FIGHTING IN THE TRENCHES! GETTING DIRTY AND LEARNING FIRST HAND WHAT REAL EVIL IS!
