A Constantly Improving Experience

If there is one thing that can be said about RWBY, it's that it's constantly improving.

Volume 1, once you get past the hype of the work of Monty Oum (may he rest in peace), was obviously the weakest of the series. It was important to establish the characters, the setting, and the basic ideas, not to mention having beautiful fight scenes and many a funny moment, but it suffered from pacing problems, short episodes, voice-acting criticisms, and not living up to the hype expected of it after over a year of teasing and four trailers.

Volume 2 was the improvement. Longer episodes, better pacing, more funny, Vocal Evolution, more development that built on what the previous season hinted at, more fight scenes with even greater scale, and shedding some light on the BigBad's goals (plus giving her some action of her own). Still, the show suffered from several problems, particularly near the climax of the final episodes and how the Grimm haven't exactly been living up to the hype the lore paints them with.

From what we've seen so far, Volume 3 has continued to up the improvements. Smoother animation, even more fight scenes due to taking place during a Tournament Arc, and humor that works. Even more important characters are being introduced, such as Uncle Quow and Winter Schnee, that were only spoken of in the previous seasons and are implied to actually play important roles in upcoming events.

Whether you like or hate RWBY, there's no denying it is constantly improving from what it used to be. Here's to the new season and the upcoming ones, and may they continue to amaze us with their improvements.

Oh, and you forgot probably its biggest improvement: voice acting.

In RWBY, every girl is Best Girl.

Definitely agree, it's a pleasure to watch all the way through now, not just the odd moment.
