I personally have issue with jaune arcs, but they're not as intrusive as much of the fandom makes it out to be (just wholistically unfitting given contemporary plot lines.)

I'd say the story's greatest fault is we're none the wiser of the big picture with the villains, which hurts the overarching narrative. We know what they're doing, but not why. The last two examples relate to Breach, specifically because it was all "pew-pew Imma introduce the not plot important right now Team CFVY because the Velvet Lovers Want Her Like A Monkey Wants A Banana" and the Pyrrha x Jaune x Weiss x Neptune thing. We could have had a really good advancement of the main plot overall in the time it took Jaune to realize: Hey, Weiss doesn't like me. She likes Neptune. Neptune likes Weiss. Pyrrha likes me. I still like Weiss. But Weiss likes Neptune. So What should I do?

A. Keep going after Weiss.

B. Go after Weiss conveniently as she chooses Neptune.

C. Ask the most-anti-social-dude-in-the-show for dating advice. Then go after Weiss.

D. All of the Above.

And the winner is... D! Congratulations Mr. Arc, for wasting our glorious time with the Jaune Love Square Arc, you have won the dislike/hatred of Weiss Schnee, the kind of sort of affections of Pyrrha Nikos, and an awkward friendship with Mr. Suave himself, Neptune "Edward Cullen" Vasilias, and no main plot advancement! Applause Applause Applause.

That concludes our glorious show of "Crazy Couples!" I'm your host, Garrett Hawke and I hope you enjoyed this exciting episode!
