You know what really grinds my gears?

"Oh no, I'm being chased by a Nevermore and a Death Stalker ahhhhh."

"Oh no, I'm about to get hit by a truck ahh."

"Oh no, I need to run away from Roman ahhh."

YOU HAVE SUPER SPEED.

USE IT.

Ruby is starting to come across as a seriously flawed character. Which is worrying, considering she's the "main" character. I mean, at this point I'm more interested in why Cardin sodding Winchester is such a prick then I am Ruby's backstory.

I think the inherit flaw in alot of the RWBY writing is they have that pitfall where antagonists act, and then protagonists ''react. ''The baddies do something, then the good guys are forced to do something because of that. It can make all your heroes feel like reluctant heroes. It's good to have a reluctant hero in a story, sure. But, when all the good guys are just kind of waiting around for the bad guys to make their move, it starts to feel like a game of chess.

A game of chess. Isn't that interesting?
