FWIW, in retrospect, this outcome was obvious; how else would someone as useless as Jaune get into the academy? All this really does is confirm the B-plot, which is Jaune trying to achieve the destiny he wants.

Oddly enough, I don't think that the A-plot (what's going on with Ruby) has been more than hinted at yet, has it? They'd better use all the remaining Volume 1 time to set that up, if only in a Harry Potter-style: "Oh, your mother was a great heroine and a personal friend who died at the hands of [$NAME_DRAGON]." If they don't, some wit is going to suggest they rename the show 'JNPR'.
