1. The trailer issue was never a relevant thing to me in this entire thread. We couldn't jump to conclusions saying Monty isn't doing his job incorrectly when he might just decide to link everything together on a whim. Besides, I hear its confirmed that the trailers are canon and do take place in the past...The Black/White ones anyway. I've yet to hear about Red/Yellow.

2. Indeed. They've definitely widened the world of their story by leaving the school, although I have to wonder if we're still limited to a typical high school drama...I could totally imagine this story development being like a kind of field trip of sorts in some mainstream anime, and then its back to all hell with the bigger school drama within the lesser one. Regardless, the clash of cultures and the exploration is a huge plus.

3. Wut...? I can't believe you'd just let the cliches and typical development slide. For me, thats the biggest problem. Seriously. I considered dropping this whole thing because of it. I'm sure alot of the fanbase could've guessed what was going to happen. I realize theres a line that these shows like to jump between cliche, and what fans want to happen in their giddy little fantasies; which usually match the cliche to the mainstream audience, but come on. These characters could be so much more than this that I feel stories worth of potential is being burned here and its aggravating.

And I know someone out there had to have felt Weiss forgiving Blake so easily be cheesy as hell; though props given for remaining in the "Weiss" character when she does it. I felt that it could've gotten around to make it alot deeper and more interesting.

4. Yeah. I'm probably going to watch the DVD off of someone's pirated collection like most probably are. You folk can lie to me as you wish. I prefer being realistic. I will buy it if it becomes incredibly onerous to find it on the internet.

5. Although they do need to focus on JNPR eventually. They made the right decision in focusing on the main cast first.

RT will always have the benefit of the doubt for me. I won't give them the patience to improve their flaws however, if it means I sit through a hell of cliches all throughout the series and become bored to death. In which case, I will most likely have to hunt the writers down and make them regret ever watching their god-awful Naruto/Bleach/and their collection of high school drama anime hell.
