User blog comment:Zolnir/RWBY Episode 6 Review/@comment-4197234-20130823204642

I agree with you in the sense that, considering monty's usual work, this episode did fall flat but i think you're blowing this WAY too far out of proportion in terms of how bad it atually is.

first off, calling something worse than old 80's tv animation is a pretty bold claim and I dont think rwby comes close to being that bad.

second, monty's animation outside of fight scenes has always been rather lacking from wider than normal walking stances to awkwardly stiff hand gestures. It was present in RvB and it carries over into rwby. Don't get me wrong, It's definitely bad and needs improvement, but I think it's something we should come to get expect  by this point.

third, the fight scenes, or rather, lack therof. I'll admit, considering how long they've made us wait, and all the hype surrounding this, the fights in this ep were rather boring. However, we are still in the early portions of the series, so i doubt Monty is going to whip out the good stuff until we actually get to a major villain.
