First off, here is a video I agree with a lot about Adam. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZiQAq_nf1s

Adam volume 3 was shown to be an end-game boss that fought for a good cause. He was a villain, but fought for a good thing, so it was an interesting character. Then volume 5 majorly nerfed him skill wise and character wise. His development was bad and his wanting to save the faunus turned to him being an angry ex-boyfriend. He eventually turned into a stepping stool to introduce bumblebee, which honestly is a bad thing.

First off, bumblebee isn’t bad because it’s gay, that’s not why. First off, Blake has had many potential candidates for a potential love interest, and rooster teeth spent 6 volumes before finally revealing bumblebee. And two main questions to ask for relationships, what does it add and what does it take away. Most relationships add nothing, which is fine as long as they don’t take away anything. Problem is, bumblebee doesn’t add anything and it does take away something. It takes away the team dynamic. Now Yang and Blake will pick each other over their teammates, and it’s been showed multiple times they care about each other more.

Same thing with white rose. The show is based around this team, not partners. They should be a team and not split into partners. Side characters can do whatever they want, but the main protagonists should not.

I rest my case. Adam being an Endgame boss is frivolous especially considering the fact that Salem was revealed the episode after Adam cut off Yang's arm. Sure he could've been written better but I knew Adam cutting off Yang's arm would be the only significant thing he would do.
