    Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.

    Why do you talk about a guy you hate? Even mentioning his name means he wins.
    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    Giving them any air time at all, does.

    It's like the what's his face with the suicide video. Can talk about how crappy it is, but don't keep bringing the person up, it keeps them relevant well beyond the point where they should have stopped being.

    Then again, someone will always keep someone like this relevant í suppose so I'm just flailing about.

    Nah, like.

    If you want to bring him up that's fine. I just feel like spending effort on hating people that will never change is kinda ... a waste, I guess. Not trying to change how you do. Just, as noted, flailing about or whatever.

    The Faunus racism was one of the shows weakest elements, they really didn't do enough to show that aspect of the world, to the point were it seemed almost non existent and the WF just came across as a group of poorly conceived and completely unthreatening mooks for RWBY to take down. The only time they ever felt threatening was when Adam would turn up to spite edglordy nonsense.

    This storyline would also make Blake more unlikeable with each passing volume, taking who was originally the most popular member of Team RWBY and causing her to more or less become the scrappy (although the worst of this aspect didn't start to sink in until Volume 4).

    On top of being the most poorly written plot it took up huge amounts of screen time and dragged on forever. Which brings me to the worst aspect of the WF. It's massive screen time would often drag down other (often better), storylines around it and hurt the show as a whole. It's mass amount of screentime caused much of the planned plot of Volume 2 to be pushed back to Volume 3, it taking forever to finish forced every other plotline in Volume 5 to have to stop and wait for it to finish, leading into the messy and rushed final arc of said volume.

    In my opinion there is nothing in RWBY that has had a more negative impact on the series than the White Fang.
    It really was mishandled. At the end you're forced to realize Weiss was kinda totally right in Vol 1.

    Adam cutting off Yang's arm in one shot will never not be amazing, though.
