Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

Thanks Poui.

Well, it's worth mentioning that he's not the main character. Ruby is. Down to her team even sharing the phonetics of her name.

I would've said the title of the show sharing the phonetics of her name, instead, but the whole thing is kinda irrelevant. Jaune is very obviously meant to co-main the show, given how much focus is on him (or at least main this arc, if that's all it is). Setting up a conflict, even one I disagree with, and then resolving it five minutes later is kind of lazy. Why bother introducing it in the first place?

Furthermore, I think it would have been more useful to use Jaune's [radio edit]ups as a leader in order to teach Ruby, as well, who could recognize his faults and then simultaneously address his and hers, rather than just having her already being an (apparently) competent leader. The implication during the big battle was that she had a good head for strategy, but was still a pretty poor leader (for several reasons). Her development there seems pretty inconsistent.

They need to just stop releasing these little 4 minute episodes. Please turn these little subplot episodes into one episode, and stop delaying it. If the big fight scene episodes aren't ready yet, you should have held off longer to start everything, because there have only been a couple episodes worth watching so far.

Ithink they're just animating as much as they can between weeks, and wahtever they have done is what we get.

Maybe I'm being slightly silly though.

If it would make for better and longer episodes, I'd be totally content with waiting 2 weeks at a time, or even more. These piddly little episodes with very few interesting scenes are really ruining the intended experience of this show (I assume).

I actually stopped following RWBY after episode 6, partly due to life, partly because the pacing was so shoddy. I'm going to catch up soonish, but the pacing DID turn me away and I was kind of upset by that.

HJ and I came to the conclusion that every episode with a 'part 2' is in fact, one episode cut in half for as yet unexplained reasons.

Just watched the recent episode. Loved the polarity joke.

Soooo if not for Glinda's comment of "I don't care what his transcript says" earlier in the show, I'd think that the school is aware of his lying. As it stands, I'm still kind of in the believing that the headmaster probably is aware.

And who else thinks he's probably a villain?

Yeah, they're definitely aware. They don't seem like the kind of organization to be fooled by someone so dumb.

As for the headmaster, don't think he'll be a villain. But I'm sure he'll have a very colorful past.

Those are amazing. I haven't played much of the Tales series, but those were very well done.

Yay, Blake arc! That...actually wasn't that surprising. I originally suspected a connection between her and the Grimm, but I'm still suspecting a connection between the Grimm and the Faunus, so...

Also, a conversation I had before the Black trailer was released with a friend had him commenting on her cat ears, when I said, "No, I think it's a ribbon."

Everyone wins.

Well that was a nice episode. The length was worth the wait.
Even if a lot of it's fairly cliche, I'm liking how this characters and story are developing.
I kinda wish the animation wasn't so awkward though.

I guess that was the season finale. I really wish the rest of the series was more like those last two episodes.

lol. Yes. If nothing else, the series has maintained the excellent sense of humor that I've come to expect from anything Rooster Teeth.
