I will also agree that to a certain extent, RWBY is over-hyped. I enjoy the show so far, but there isn't really anything yet that makes me think it is the best show ever, as some people tend to claim. What I like about it so far is the dialog and the action. The way the characters interact and the quick one-liners fit the type of humor that I like.

However in contrast, I find the writing to be somewhat poor. Most of the things that I'm assuming were supposed to be plot twists can be seen from a mile away (Blake being a Faunus, Jaune cheating his way into Beacon, ect.), so instead of being surprised it feels like you are just waiting for the reveal instead. Also as people have said, the animation is poor.

But for what the show is, it is pretty good. I don't mind spending 12 minutes a week watching the latest episode and hopefully I can get a laugh out of it. It could just be that because it is a web-series, I have a lower standard of it, but what it does it does well.
