1. There Is A Lot Of Gay Self-hate Being Projected Against The RWDE In This Post. I Ship Hetero Couples,

1. There is a lot of gay self-hate being projected against the RWDE in this post. I ship hetero couples, but I don't call lgbtq shippers 'gross and sick' because of their shipping preferences.

2. This video https://youtu.be/K3vYbF3_TAk gives a basic overview of some of the problems RWDE finds with RWBY. Its a lighthearted yet funny representation of what RWDE sees as areas of improvement in RWBY's story.

3. There are many reasons why RWDE and critics find RWBY 'disappointing' and ultimately, there is no ONE answer as to what about RWBY is disappointing. Adam was not treated right, Cinder's backstory was revealed too late, Qrow's voice changed. All or any one of the above reasons could be why a critic finds RWBY disappointing, and that list is far from exhaustive.

4. In the end, all we (RWDE, critics, rewrites, etc ...) want is to be allowed to raise our points and not be attacked for our views. The toxicity of the fandom is the root cause of RWBY's reception and reputation. A problem that is prevalent in the fandoms of most modern cartoons and tv shows today.

There’s something that I just remembered about critics/rewrites that say that they find RWBY “disappointing”. And something that I don’t get is “how?” What exactly did ANY of them want in the first place that isn’t some vague, generic answer, like waning it to be just whatever constitutes as “good” in their eyes? Or try to say they wanted “Monty’s Vision” when they either A.) never met the guy or actually worked on the show themselves ever or B.) seemed to have hated the show when he was alive. What is your perspective on why RWBY has gotten the reputation and reception that it has gotten since day 1?

1. They don’t like that their “male” favorites aren’t worshipped. Adam , when shown in the black trailer? was “cool”...to where they completed ignored he was willing to blow up innocent passengers. They ignored him dismissing the death of his men in mount glenn. they dismissed his attacking unarmed civilians in v3...they only started complaining when he and blake first interact...never mind that he was evil and had no redeeming qualities...they only looked for what they wanted to imagine...because the real adam was a jerk, they were upset that their fantasy was not the same as canon. Qrow trying to give up alcoholism? oh no, he’s no longer “relatable”? Ironwood being authoritarian is bad? oh no, we cannot believe in our idea of executive power/privilege.

2. when I joined during volume 4, the qrow worship was at an all time high.the words of monty and the writers were considered to be liars if it got in the way of ships and theories...one woman used mental retardation insults towards anyone trying to debunk the qrow is rubys father theory....when miles debunked it? he was called a liar by so many. So now the desire to believe that the writers are lying for the sake of one’s ship or theory became an obsession to the qrow fanatics.  if you don’t like what happens in the show? just call the writers liars or scream retcon...doesn’t mean its true, but the people will swallow up a lie in favor of accepting reality.

3. RWBY up to the end of v3 took place in a school setting where people using jaune to promote their OC male protagonist fanfics could have.  the jaune-centric fanfic writers who loves making jaune the protagonist..or adam? when volume 4 started, the plot moved beyond school to become a worldbuilding series, encompassing the four kingdoms...so people could no longer have their school fantasy setting. So they had to adapt to the actual setting of the show.

4. With Monty’s death of course, if something did not go the way a “fan” wanted? Adam being evil or dead, Blacksun not happening, Taiyang being Ruby’s father, Raven being a deadbeat mom who’s leader of  a tribe of killers and thieves? No matter what Monty said in life...dead man cannot debunk lies...so using a dead man’s name to defend your accusations against a studio became another practice.

5. Vic Micnogna...despite funimation and conventions firing him...double standards led his fanbois and fangirls to blame RT...After Shane left, the idea of claming RT rules with an iron fist became another practice. So RWBY and Roosterteeth became subject to double standards...anything anime or studios do that get a pass? RT and RWBY become villified for. Example? RWBY has about 100 characters...most anime have over 300...yet RWBY is accused of having too many, while most anime get a complete and utter pass.

6. Military and authoritarian support....America, not FMA but America, is a country where there is a love of militarism and executive power...where one person holds all the power. RWBY is where four councils hold the power...and where Huntsmen are NOT soldiers...they are NOT the mlitary...freelance contractors with a noble cause...so they are NOT like “Shinobi” from naruto or “shinigami” from bleach where everyone is militarized and obeys a central authority figure... Ironwood who controls both the military and the huntsmen, and tries to merge both, shows that atlas fails miserably in terms of its military... and yet people love the idea of one individual holding power if he’s cool enough... for all the hatred and problems of capitalism? the hatred of robyn hill and her attempts to defend the downtrodden of atlas gets ignored in favor of defending anything the atlas military does. RWBY is anti-military and anti-capitalism....qrow and glynda both call out atlas and ironwood...

7. Ironwood...sigh...in volume 2 he brought a MILITARY ARMY to vale during a time of peace...that’s like nazi germany bringing an army to austria during the olympics....also in volume 2? he went behind ozpin’s back to tell the council to fire ozpin...what did ironwood say afterwards ? “you brought this upon yourself”...he demands trust from others, but refuses to show trust in others..glynda calls him out on this...volume 3, he conducts military projects, aka penny, refuses to reveal her identity to ozpin, and treats her as a machine, even telling her not to make friends...people say that volume 8 he “suddenly became a villain”...did everyone forget him literally abusing his two council seats in volume 4? Jacques schnee of all people telling him to get a grip? how many people have “good intentions” but are still tyrants? An Anti-villain

8. Raven....they wanted her to be an anti-hero....that she had a “good reason” a “morally justifiable” reason for abandoning yang and taiyang... but raven being scared of salem and wanting to save her own skin? the bandit tribe being killers and thieves? oh no, raven was actually a bad person? noo, their fantasy of what they wanted her to be was ruined by what she actually was....so again, rather than face reality, they scream bad writing..

10.money and clout...youtube algorithms benefit from hate...and people make money and popularity off hating the show and its writers...making money off trashing CRWBY has become popular...so has gaining fame of hating.

11...RWBY is a show about four female protagonists...and yet people are so obsessed with the men...next, they’re angry that the women do not conform to their wants/expectations...they get mad that their headcanons are not canon...they get mad that they cannot fantasize a woman being straight...there’s a hardcore qrowxsummer shipper whose a VA...while I commission malexmale and femalexfemale fanart and fancomcis, that dude commissions his self-insert being shipped with lesbians in legend of korra, she-ra, and rwby...gross, and sick... sigh...fanbois AND fangirls seem to get some sick twisted pleasure of hating on female characters and subjecting them AND lgbt to double standards...you need only look at the hatred of korrasami and the anti-lok vidoes to see how women protagonists in anime are subjected to double standards.

Well...hope that helps answer your question...

This is what I’ve come to believe about the hatedom, about rwde, about the “rewriters” and anyone who ditches constructive criticism in favor of “valid criticism”

oh yes! for anyone interested! I built a list of 121 pro-rwby youtuber channels! I hope this helps you all! https://canonseeker.tumblr.com/post/669777878220685312/111-rwby-youtube-channels-for-rwby-fans-to-enjoy

Character Design

It is common for new writers to try and cram their character sheet with pages of details and backstory. With column upon column for trivia, minutiae, and physical statistics. Just like the character sheets of the Writer's personal inspiration.

Writers don't realize that those character sheets are written from the perspective of the audience. An audience who has read the story and compiled these sheets from the details they gleaned from the story they have read.

New Writers should try to make their characters as simple as possible. Heck, leave a few gaps here and there so that they can fill these gaps over the course of the story they write.

Mineta Minoru Haters

I'm not sure if they have read some older Manga which are extremely sexualized.

Mineta's shenanigans are extremely tame by comparison.

Secondly: why are people so hard up on the 'sexualization' of the girls in BNHA?

Shouldn't girls be allowed to wear what they want?

Momo plays a Barbarian. Her interactions in game is based off Bakugou whenever he throws a tantrum. D&D allows her to be a 'bad girl' and break stuff.

Mineta is an avid D&D player who specializes in Bards. He introduced Momo to the game. His constantly insane charisma rolls allows him to be a sex-machine during his games.

Sometimes Mineta's filter between reality and D&D blurs, which is why he is constantly harassing the girls around him.

Momo thinks her in-character dialogue as a Barbarian makes her sound like Red Sonja. Everyone else thinks its cute that she's trying.

Mineta is a very respected role-player and is able to help Momo with her roleplaying.

Can we get mineta headcanons for playing dnd with Momo as DM

I honestly don't know anything Abt dnd other than it's fantasy and...thats really it. I'm a nerd but not like..that kind of nerd. Sorry 😅 but if anybody wants to chime in plz add to the post!!
