RWBY

RWBY
Rwby's Pros out way it's cons and it's only getting better.
Overview,

Music:Top notch, Jeff Williams delivers and even if you despise everything else it's soundtrack is incredible.

Action: Monty Oum's bread and butter and it shows. Excellent fight choreography and clearly Monty and the laws of physics had a falling out at some point because Rule of Cool is in full effect and it's all the better for it.

Story: So far, nothing we haven't seen before, school for fighting monsters, creatures of darkness, If you are into any type of fiction then you've seen the premise. That said, it's way to early to be certain of where it may go and with multiple seasons confirmed there is ample time for them to subvert there premise or introduce more original plots. Also, it needs to be said that even if they don't do that, not having an original premise is NOT automatically a bad thing. If it's executed well that's all that matters.

Animation: Needs...

Awesome for what it is
Rwby seems to get a lot of attention from individuals who are fans of either Rooster Teeth or those who enjoy anime. The action sequences are amazing which isn't surprising given Monty Oum's involvement. The music for the series or at least the released songs are in my opinion the best music Rooster Teeth has released. The show gets a lot of crap for the animation style or the character portrayal. Personally neither of those bother me though. The animation style is sub par by most individual's standards but the show isn't going for realistic or high tech displays. It is made in a very rounded and cartoonish style but its still high quality of that style. I think some people tend to forget that shows and especially animation carry a level of art or how they want to be seen to the table and this shows style simply isn't for everyone. The character portrayal issues I can get behind a bit more. The dialogue can be cheesy at times and some of the characters seem rather flat but I can get...

rwby review
RWBY is a good but flawed series. The good is... almost everything about it. The diologue is entertaining, the character designs are eye catching and distinctive, the music is great. The flaw is in the animation. If you can see past that, this series is definitely worth checking out.
