Volume 1 was meant to introduce the main characters (Team RWBY and to a lesser extent JNPR), their backstories, character motivations, relationships between the character etc. In my opinion, they failed (partially). Volume 1 was about the same length as 5 episodes of a TV anime. How many anime give us the full breakdown of all of the main characters in the first 5 episodes?

They've set aside volume 2 to get more into the characters and explaining some things. Monty said they even took some things they originally planned for volume 2 and moved them to volume 3 to make room for character stuff.
