I agree with that part. It's because it depends on the fandom, I watched a lot of series and learned a lot of things about how people think when it comes to a tv show, specially anime. There are haters who hate because they ship homosexual couples (my favorite anime had this problem) and hate other characters, always talking bad about them, going as far as making fanfics, fanarts or even videos about them getting killed or something worse. I was actually surprised and really happy to know that the RWBY fandom is not like that.

I still have a hard time putting together everything like how I forgot about their reasons. For example, we can't tell anything for sure. Jaune is a good guy who is righteous and would always play the hero but he is lazy and gives you the impression that he didn't mean it when he said he wanted so hard to become a huntsman. Also, Blake did it for a noble reason, yet, the White Fang became violent five years prior Volume 1 and what was Blake doing during all that time? She said "I no longer wanted to use my skills to aid them in their violence" which means she has done terrible things in the past.

Like I said, we can't tell for sure but it's most likely that all the things she said about how the White Fang works: setting fire to stores, stealing cargos and participating in organized attacks, was her old life. She even called herself a criminal and Jaune only did because he was desperate to live up to his surname.

Of course there are difference, I'm not saying that one is better than the other but this are things that people don't take in account whenever they talk about it. Like how everyone says that Pyrrha likes Jaune because he treats her like a normal person, even though no male who has met Pyrrha so far has treated her differently to how Jaune does so it's not really a good reason to explain how they make a good couple.

My point is: people just skips important facts and don't give it too much thought when it comes to talking about it. So yeah, I totally agree that when we meet their full backgrounds, they will regret their early opinions of them. Just like a singer who tries hard to be loved, but there are always people who will hate him and try so hard to make their point, just needs to shot himself and suddenly everyone loves him. It's just how people think. It's hard to accept it but the sooner you do it, the faster you will understand this truth and it helps you to have better opinions of most things.
