If you go back to season 1, and even up till like the start of Season 3 Ruby was a complete and utter sperglord.
Like when she got pulled in for questioning by Glynda and Ruby just reveals her powerlevel talking about how much she loves fighting and how much she wants to go to Beacon.
Or when she sees all the students at Beacon and is like "Omg look at all the weapons"
Like holy shit how can she be this autistic. Everyone has fucking weapons in this world, it's not like your scythe is the only one. (Admittedly a cool one) But still it doesn't seem to make sense.
Or when she's walking along Jaune for the first time, who is a little autistic himself and she just whips out her scythe and is just like,
"Well I don't have anything to talk about so here's my fucking scythe dawg isn't it cool?"
It was completely out of nowhere, and it baffles me how Ruby could be this socially retarded.

Because she pretty much only has that and the fact that she's cute going for her.
Her personality tends to swing between autistic and non-existent, and it's not until season 4 that she even gets any real lines that show a side beyond the autism. Did you know that if she didn't have that extended monologue at the end, most side characters would have more dialogue than she does?
She's just not a particularly interesting character, even by RWBY standards where most of the cast is fairly vaporous. At least the other three have a tangible backstory and character arc. Hell, Juane probably has the most development. Even Nora has a less nebulous arc, and she's basically just an extra who was liked enough to gain protagonist status.
Don't get me wrong. I think RWBY shoots itself in the foot accurately and often, and I could level a lot of criticism at it, but I just don't have the heart to do that most of the time because it's a quirky auteur project that clearly has a lot of love put into it by people who basically have no idea what they're doing, but when the major figurehead of your entire franchise is one of the least interesting characters, there's a problem.
Carson Jackson
She's just a /k/ommando, user. Don't bully.
Jason Torres
Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this bonermancer needs more screentime?
Gabriel Thompson
Or maybe some more screentime with this bonermancer?
Michael Adams
I want her to be my Mommy.
Brody Smith
Only if you're into violent amputation.
Isaiah Rivera
Too soon. ;-;
I really hope she comes back in the next season.. She would have been a good daughteru.
Hudson Allen
Ruby is really really cute.
Logan Davis
Remember kids, being cute doesn't excuse a lack of personality.
Unless you're trying to appeal to neckbeards, in which case it's actually a point in your favour.
Blake Morgan
What about Blake?
Would you get nakey with Blakey?
Jacob Wood
Alright who's your RWBY™ Waifu?
Logan Wright
She didn't stop being a sperglord she just stops talking.
Volume 4 before her monologue all she does is make fun of Jaune and question why her uncle didn't tell a sixteen year old about a secret organization.
Jace Lewis
This point is accurate.
Dominic Edwards
Can we come back now
Blake Murphy
Yes.
Ethan Williams
I like Penny Polendina
Grayson Barnes
Ruby is kinda interesting, she at least isn't boring. I don't think any of the characters so far have been boring.
I'm obsessed with Rwby. It's a strange addiction and I don't want to stop.
Jeremiah Fisher
Tell me about Jaune's sword. Why did it throw shoot some wind when he swung it?
Charles Allen
She's the first member of the Illuminozi we meet, and then proceeds to have the least relevance to the plot.
Like, she doesn't even have any development like Ozpin, Qrow, and Ironwood do. She just gets left in the dust as Beacon's janitor when we reach Volume 4.
Grayson Collins

Connor Green
Glynda is for Ironwood
Owen Jones
One of these things is not like the other. One of these things just doesn't belong.
Parker Wood
Bump
Noah Rodriguez
Ironwood is a punk bitch
Anthony Morris
Glynnda will never ever show up again b/c the VA had a fight with RT.
Nicholas Stewart
Accurate representation of the quality drop from Vol. 3 to Vol. 4
Angel Carter
I will never not be astounded how a show can increase so greatly in visual quality (though V3 looked good for the most part), and yet somehow make the writing even shittier
Jace Barnes
Anime way to say he swung it pretty hard, don't be surprised when he starts cutting shit with just air pressure.
Dominic Cox
I haven't been here for a couple of weeks, but the Generals are dead right? At least until the hiatus ends or RWBY Chibi Vol 2 comes out?
Jaxon Clark
You guys cant be here.
You were banished.
Leo Sanders
I don't watch the show and just came into the thread out of boredom while waiting for a download to finish. Could you elaborate?
Ian Hughes
A loss of imagination? I mean, this should have been the season where the fight scenes finally reached the level Monty dreamed of and yet they were the most boring fights in the show's history
Asher Butler
The threads probably won't be back for Chibi.
Jaxson Nguyen
...
Nathan Hughes
Because Sup Forums mods are stupid They said we could have rwby threads no general though
Logan Morgan
No, she's not interesting at all user, you're lying to yourself.
In terms of depth:screentime, she's one of the lowest rated characters. Neptune has more personality than she does.
Noah Adams
The entire season was filler. It was literally just an excuse to move the scenery around and provide a little time to have the side-story character development sections that Weiss, Blake and Yang got.
Ruby and Co. effectively got put on a boat for the entire thing and they had to be included for audience reasons, but it was clear that everything they did was token filler.
There's a lot wrong with that, but if I'm correct then hopefully S5 will be better. If it's not, rip the entire franchise.
Cameron Bell
definetly NOT blake, because she's the worst female character, so nora or pyrrha
Jaxson Price
Weiss, Yang and Blake's story arcs were all awful though. The only memorable parts of the season were Ren and Nora backstory and development.
Jaxson Myers
I'm just explaining it, I never said it was actually good.
The animation is getting better but the writing is a lot worse, I'm hoping they can salvage it.
Mason Adams
Weiss' story in particular was fucking egregious
That should been one episode and ended with her summoning the knight
Jackson James
>Okay she's gonna break out now right >Nope >She's gonna break out NOW, right? >No >...Now? >Sure, but also fuck you, season over
Yep.
The entire season was stretched super-thin. Very little actually happened, and it just fucking finished after the potentially interesting resolutory stuff had been set up in the most tortured fashion possible. It's like 'Okay, here's where things get inter- Whoops, guess we're out of episodes!'
And then they have Ruby deliver a pointless monologue about nothing in particular after a pointless season of nothing in particular, just to give her enough lines that she still qualifies as the protagonist. Nice one.
Blake Martinez
Weiss' storyline basically did one thing for me, and one thing alone.
It solidified the theory that 3 volumes will equal 1 arc now, with each arc revolving around a school/Kingdom. The fact that Miles and Kerry refused to even show a hint of the city of Atlas is proof of this.
1-3 was Beacon. 4-6 will be Haven. 7-9 will be Atlas. 10-12 will be Shade. Monty did say he had about 9-10 volumes actually planned anyway
Connor Anderson
Sword-Sword is best weapon, right up there with Ironwood's Gun-Gun.
Cameron Collins
Boring design in a show that sells itself on unique and interesting designs.
Dominic Reed
Maybe he'll put dust on it and turn it into a fire or lightning sword.
Dylan Jackson
MANTLE DID NOTHING WRONG
Ryder Perry
I only watched up to ep 5 of this season should i finish it?
Kayden Mitchell
why the fuck not?
Henry Rogers
You do realize pretty much the only three interesting weapon designs are Milo, Crescent Rose, and Magnhild, right? Everything else is pretty standard.
Lincoln Morris
Might as well, just don't expect a lot
Easton Carter
Standard is still better than Juanesword 2.0
Mason Garcia
Ironwood's gun-gun apparently isn't a gun-gun. According to Kerry, we haven't seen what the second trigger does yet. I'm betting it's probably a gun-sword somehow.
Nicholas Thomas
Qrow's weapon is pretty good
David Rivera
Go away, self-insertfag
Dominic Myers
I love the Rubooty.
Nicholas Sanders
Sun Gun-Cucks say your wrong
Parker Miller
And we will never see the gun-chucks in action ever again because the skill to animate them died with Monty.
Nicholas Peterson
Torchwick was cool
Nathan Hill
Me too
Juan Hernandez
I love the Bellabooty
Ryan Bailey
She doesn't have cat ears, she just has a little black bow..
Nolan Phillips
Bump
Isaiah Edwards
Will she return lads?
Blake Jones
I hope so, I miss Penny.
Sebastian Sanders
She was too good and pure for this show.
Michael Lopez
I hope not. She was useless and only added to a bloated cast.
Angel Edwards
What is /rwbyg/ doing out of the /trash/?
Leo Foster
Yeah, the show seems to be going in darker direction.
>Ywn protect your Penny Daughteru
Why live?
Brayden Sullivan
I want her to force me to eat her faunus pussy in front of the entire cast.
Anthony Collins
this one
Zachary Powell
>Muh charts
Evan King
>butthurt by evidence liberals everyone
Brandon Turner
To paraphrase your "argument" "Hey two rocks look the same, therefore they must be the same rock."
How basic can you be?
Daniel Ramirez
>the guy who reused his own older animations for some fights in his FF8/fairy tales crossover fanfic show also reused other assets as well Is it really that surprising.
Landon Wood
>I don't know how 3d models work pleb if you look closely, it has the same details and pixels.
Tyler Price
Tiny butts count as booty?
David Cooper
You've made this argument so many times that it becomes fucking annoying
Jace Richardson
Even if he did it wouldn't make a difference to me.
You're over here saying, "Ugh, Monty is such a hack"
I like Rwby, and some retard on Sup Forums isn't going to change my mind.
I hope the ghost of Monty diddles your anus while you sleep.
Henry Wilson
>he can't negate my arguments just proves that I'm right
Bentley Collins
I'm saying it's annoying to see redditors praising something that shouldn't have any merit at all.
only children like rwby
Henry Evans
Why do you care about being right? What are you trying to prove?
You're wasting your time. You came to a Rwby thread and basically just started shitting on things.
Do you literally have nothing better to do?
Kevin Green
Have you ever noticed that nobody cares. I'm not debating the stupid hair parts or a fucking boot strap because it's really autistic to even notice that
Angel Butler
Dude no one cares if you're "right", fuck off.
Grayson Anderson
psst don't feed the trolls
Daniel Perry
all of your tears are so delicious. not only am I right, but I just proved you people have shit tastes and know for a fact rwby doesn't belong on Sup Forums.
Jaxson Ramirez
...
Mason Howard
>I have an opinion therefore it's a fact >I showed you charts therefore I'm right
Lucas Carter
>I showed you evidence therefore I'm right speaks for itself huh?
Nicholas Rogers
Two pictures that look similar doesn't equate to "evidence"
Jordan Jenkins
if you know 3d modeling, you can clearly see the mesh was stolen rather than recreated into something original or used as reference.
but I doubt you know what I'm saying because like I said, you're pleb with no knowledge.
Lincoln Wright
How about siting some academic sources instead of playing a picture match up game?
Otherwise fuck off.
Elijah Wilson
holy shit this nigga
thank god you're not outside of Sup Forums christ all mighty rwbyfags are retarded aspies.
