User blog:DarknexxC/Feelings on the Volume

I feel like this has been done many time today so this will not be as in depth, I just feel like i need to say something about this volume. Voice acting was great although I do feel like Ruby and Yang were used more as comic relief because their voice actors are not particularly known to be serious, and this can all change in the coming volumes. Storywise it definitely lacked in areas but also excelled in others. I contribute this to some of the failed Roosterteeth shows over the years and see this as mainly a pilot pitched to a network and not a show picked up for a full season pick up. As they were just waiting to see what would become and if the hype from the trailers could carry it all the way through the Volume, which it clearly did. Seeing as how we got hardly anything from the team as far as a Yang and Ruby storyline goes I hope this can be greatly remedied in the coming volumes. Animation seemed to be the most out of sync being excellent in the action sequences and a little unbalanced in the normal everyday of the characters, with sliding feet and choppy movements mainly to blame. Of course this will all be worked on in the coming months until the second Volume comes out. It also does not help that Miles, Monty and Kerry along with some of the animation team had to work on both RWBY and RvB. Until the second Volume though I feel like this definitely deserves at minimum a 7.5/10 which in terms of tv shows would virtually be guaranteed a second season or in this case Volume. Also I love how the best voice acting came from someone we've only heard scream (Michael Jones) it just made me laugh at how talented he truly is.
