So, I've read through your entire rant and I'm not entirely sure what your so mad about.

I personally have not been to any RT conventions and haven't seen every panel, nor am I the biggest anime fan in the world, so I don't have the same perspective as you, but I'm completely baffled at the amount of rage here.

You mention that the story is completely unoriginal. You're probably right, but what is original anymore? Nowadays you abasically have to pick your favorite tropes and go with them. Or am I wrong?

You say that Monty has disgraced anime. I don't see how. It's based on anime and Monty would like to think of it as an anime, but that doesn't mean that it is and I don't see how it lessens other anime out there. Hell, the Japanese seem to be getting into RWBY somewhat. Or am I wrong?

You say that Monty cheated us somehow. If you're talking about merchandise, then how is that cheating someone? No one forces anyone to buy merchandise, you choose to buy it on your own.

You keep saying that RT has been "deceived" by Monty. What does that even mean? Burnie and Matt gave RWBY the green light. Miles has said that they were both hesitant at first, but the success of RWBY made them confident enough to continue it.

You said that this success is only because of RT's prior fanbase. While I don't think that you're entirely wrong, I don't think you're completely right either. I like RT as much as the next person, but if they make bad content, then they make bad content. No amount of fan loyalty could cover up RWBY if it's as bad as you say it is.

This whole rant of yours you've just been getting alarmingly mad about a piece of entertainment as though it's sacrilige or something. If you don't like the show, then that's completely understandable, not everyone will like it. But, it's just a web-series. Don't get so mad over nothing.

If I've misinterpreted anything of what you've said, then please correct me.
