This is surprisingly good for a free show. Strange that I don't see a lot of threads about it. I was on the fence for a long time, but I finally gave it a go and now I'm all caught up, coincidentally just in time for the 5th season.
Honestly, I assumed the show would take a nosedive after the part where Monty died, but to my surprise it has remained good so far. To be critical, it does suffer from some tired old cliches, from the protagonist being a Mary Sue to most of the antagonists being a generic league of villains. The show also has a self-parody spinoff exhibiting some self-awareness of these faults, which leaves me wondering why they weren't prevented in the first place.
In conclusion: Show is flawed but enjoyable so far. Nora is unquestionably the best girl and my primary reason for watching it even though she barely gets any relevance. I must say giving her a serious side was a considerable mistake that somewhat undermines what made her a uniquely appealing character in the first place for the show's grim setting no pun intended But hopefully that was just a one-time thing that won't get in the way going forward. We'll see.
I'm glad Monty died because he was too beta to tell his whore to get rid of the cat he was deathly allergic to. RWBY a shit btw.

RWBY is a shitty show created by a manlet who got killed by his wife.

I've heard that story and I do believe it was his own fault in part. I feel bad for him still.
I'm sure you realize that's very easy to find on your own.

Why is every girl a raging whore now? If I wanted to watch sluts. I would talk to girls outside of class.

Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me of that. I certainly don't defend stealing assets. It's a real dick move. But I think they've stopped doing it.

RWBY is a pretty good show. Dont forget every cartoon thread on Holla Forums gets hate

On a kino animation scale of 1-10, 1 being Howl's Moving Castle (boring) and 10 being Rick and Morty (hilarious, witty, memorable), how would you rate this show?

OP here. What a coincidence. I was just in the middle of watching some of this same guy's video reviews. He points out a lot of RWBY faults that slipped by me because I binged the whole show. Yes, this series has a lot of problems I should have noticed but didn't. It suffers from creative negligence and inconsistency across the board. I'm actually somewhat shocked at this level of incompetence now that I have a bigger picture. I mean, it's one thing for some careless viewer like me to binge through dozens of episodes and miss so many of these faults, but the creators have no such excuse. They assembled the damn thing themselves, piece by piece, a slow and firsthand process. Do they have no quality assessment where they work? Anyway, this was a pretty good wakeup call for me. I shouldn't be so quick to trust my first impressions.
In conclusion, I was careless and I take back some of the praise I gave this show earlier. That said, I'm gonna keep watching it anyway as long as it's free, and my main reason for watching it (Nora) remains mostly unaffected by these fuckups. My original complaint was that writers largely ignore her, but I guess it turns out that's a very good thing.

It reminds me of TOME. In fact it's kind of weird how much they have the same problems.

OP here again. I keep finding more and more youtube videos that expose the faults of this show. This shit is comedy gold. Again, I can't believe I failed to notice all this crap when I watched the show myself. I really wasn't paying enough attention. I hope the creators see all these videos and own up to their faults sooner or later.

The show sucks overall, but has some good action scenes, and even some good regular scenes. It's almost like the writers just copy random bullshit they see in other shows and movies and sometimes it actually works out.
Easton Stewart
CGI anime is crap, I'm glad that shit is dead.
Zachary Kelly
cassette girl is about the only good example I can find and its an 8 minute short that was more of a proof of concept than anything.
Angel Allen
If anything, the amount of full CG anime has probably increased. Hand-drawn is better but CG is fine too as long as it stays a minority.
Land of the Lustrous is a (so far) good CG anime this season.
John Brooks
Looks like they made a pretty good intro for the 5th volume. They'll never top the first's, though.
CG allows better action scenes within a low budget. My bet is that all shonen animes will be CG in the future.

I refused to make this thread on /a/ or Holla Forums precisely because those boards are founded on the "cartoons vs anime" autism that shouldn't exist in the first place. Holla Forums seems like the better place. I don't want to waste my time on any weeaboo/westaboo drama.

People tend to think it's inevitable that hand-drawn anime will be replaced by CG anime just because it happened to American animation movies, but the anime industry's very different and there isn't anything inevitable about CG. Not many American shows use it either. Games with sprite graphics also haven't been replaced by 3D graphics.
The BO has decided anime and cartoons are allowed here. This isn't 4chan.

Holla Forums is better than this tbh - less, if not a complete lack of, the Hunchback, less talk about tibetan fingerpainting, more dank memes and funposting.
The Holla Forums BO is a cuck of massive proportions.

Is that supposed to be a panty shot, or her legs merged into her skirt?

as opposed to her panties being merged with her skirt?

OP here again. Vol 5 episode 1 is up on YouTube now. I think it's off to a relatively good start. The very first thing it does is acknowledge how retarded Vol 4 was.
Nora continues to be the best character. And the animation continues to be terribly stiff. Is Maya really this bad, or do these guys just suck with it? You'd think one year would have been enough time to improve.
Jack Gray
The punch scene was lol. The animation improved and looks fine.

also should i bother watching RWBY? i think i watched a few episodes and gave up on it due to the animation and story being super slow.

It's just a rejected tv show, what did you expect?

She's probably the worst VA on the show, save for Cinder, Blake, and Weiss' VAs. Weiss keeps getting worse.

It's good for a free show, but it's weaker than paid media. I would rather pirate the latter. You should too. Scared of downloading torrents? No need to worry; alluc.ee
I also do agree that it's better than cape media origin stories and nerd studd, but kino is more than cape media.

You can't judge the quality of movement but you can judge the quality of the drawings and the quality of the visuals in general. But as far as movement goes it's not a good comparison since RWBY is 3D and those anime are not.
