User blog comment:Varzan Deodinm Beldinm/The "meh" factor of this show has finally gotten to me. ( please read, then judge.)/@comment-173.58.104.208-20131011081507

Well, in answer.

1. Let me think, what else has had a school as part of the show? Oh, there was Kids Next Door, Harry Potter, Mermaid Melody, Sailor Moon, Andy Griffith, and ER. Yeah. Wayy overused.

2. RWBY, the show is called RWBY, not JNPR. Yet JNPR is now the main setup for the story. There's a lack of logic here somewhere. That's why it was good when Halo was just called Halo. They could put anyone in, and as long as it conformed to the Halo universe, it was Halo. RWBY without RWBY in a prominent role is like Moby Dick without Moby Dick in a prominent role. (Yes I read that book, will read it again just to get my mind off of waiting for the next episode).

3. The cliches. Weiss being a tsundere. Well, that one was obvious. Jaune being the dork who is really a superhero. Haven't seen him do superheroey things yet, but you may be right. CRDL as bullies, yep. Cute animal thingies: Yep.

Honestly, I want to see a slightly darker turn to the story, which thankfully, EP13 gave us. Just slightly. LIke a choice between saving a person or taking out a badguy.

And Nora is almost yandere with Ren. Almost. It's more with Obsessive love.

I'll take what I can get with the show, but honestly, I'm hoping for a return back to Ruby and her team being the focus, and not Jaune and his team. Nice idea, giving them the spotlight, but I hope it's for only one more episode.
