I've mentioned this before, but even with the Nevermore's beheading RWBY is a surprisingly tame anime and such acts of intentional cruelty didn't seem like it would appear here, to be honest. They are giving us a gentle set-up. We're going through like it's your typical magical girl animé until one of the girls gets her head bitten off with the rest of her body promptly being devoured by a monster as the other girls look on in horror. Ok, maybe we are not building up to that kind of horrific shock to our expectations, but there is no reason to believe a series that starts out sweet and innocent will remain as such. I don't think a guy pulling on a girl's ears would really qualify as gratuitous violence, though, if that is what you are talking about.
