>>57805416The first season of RWBY was genuinely awful 95% of the time, but the big bird fight and the ending fight were cool enough to keep people watching. It's why the series got so popular in the first place, because the original trailers were (still are) extremely kino and established enough goodwill out the gate for people to ignore how terrible everything else was. Basically every Monty fight scene was a shot in the arm, but then they lost those, so the show suffered a long, slow death.
