Ah yes, because that ALWAYS works out so well.

His logic seems to hinge on the fact that there's multiple official and conflicting works, but here's the thing: I am a super hardcore fan, I have tattoos and spend most of my free time on RWBY related writing projects. I literally don't even give a shit about the manga or the books.

Besides; from the mouths of the creators, RWBY is already an anime; or at least intended to be one. Making an anime adaptation of a manga based on an anime is not only recursive, it's doomed to failure.

They're going to end up relying on CGI for most of the Grimm and weapons, which will inevitably result in awkward compositing of CGI assets into a 2D space *cough* Overlord *cough*; it would most likely be picked up by either a second rate studio or one which is given insefficient budget; they end up adding a bunch of details from all of the existing content which leads to an absolute clusterfuck with even worse pacing and effectively creating yet ANOTHER conflicting narrative.
