User blog comment:Zathronas/Speculative author: The motivation of a Huntress/@comment-10380701-20141004133830

Sorry. I can't take Weiss' motivation seriously since you typed her name instead of her surname. The giggles won't stop, Help.

That said, I'm seeing a lot of parallels with Attack on Titan (good show btw. So much parallels with RWBY right now) on what a Huntsman is truly about.

It's not about honor and glory. It's about your duty to humanity. If you can't cross the threshold of being able to sacrifice yourself, then being a Huntsman is not for you.

Ruby, hasn't crossed the threshold of self-sacrifice yet, however. She's just too young to fear death for now. She has selflessness, but I don't think she's ready to give her life for others.
