So yeah, some one added these to YMMV without going through the Clean-up pages apparently, cause if they did, they\'d see Cinder was on the BaseBreakingCharacter cleanup. Plus, both seem misused.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Oscar. Since Volume 4 Oscar has occupied an odd position in the fandom, as while Aaron Dismuke\'s performance has been a consistently praised element of the series and Oscar\'s character potential has been noted as a great chance for his character, his fans and detractors have noted an odd tendency for Oscar\'s major character moments to happen \'\'offscreen.\'\' Starting with him accepting Ozpin\'s presence in his head and choosing to leave for Mistral in Volume 4, before continuing to Volume 5 with him accepting the risks of being a Huntsman and reaching its peak in Volume 6 with Oscar, despite the plot setting up him running away as a significant moment for him, just returning to the home base with a fresh change of clothes while affirming his commitment to the fight against Salem. For many fans the camel\'s back has been broken and they\'ve stopped caring about Oscar, since to them, the writers evidently don\'t care enough to actually give him onscreen character development. However, Oscar remains a popular character for many others who are hopeful that Volume 7 will finally grant him the chance to development from his trials and tribulations onscreen, especially among the contingent of his fans who ship him with Ruby.

** Most of this reads like TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter and either accepting it and forgetting Oscar, or still hoping it will change.

* TheScrappy: Cinder Fall has become one of the most reviled characters in the entire show in and out of universe. Loathed for killing Pyrrha and abusing Emerald by a large portion of the fans, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UgNfFbogpU critics have frequently lambasted]] the show for refusing to give Cinder any personality or character development beyond a generic sexy femme fatale. When it \'\'looked\'\' like Volume 4 was going to give Cinder an arc of recovering from her loss at Beacon, Volumes 5 and 6 had her dovetail right back into being the same one-note character she was before the Fall of Beacon. With six volumes of appearances and little development to show for it, Cinder has become the favored punching bag of many critics who call her the worst-written character in the entire series.

** This only acknowledges the critics and ignores that, to a good portion of the fans, she\'s either liked for her actions or is given DracoInLeatherPants treatment, even by some tropers on here. Plus, it\'s still being discussed on the BBC cleanup page.
