On another note, the first paragraph is also misrepresenting the content of the show by claiming that Ruby\'s power is a walking DeusExMachina, contrary to all the show\'s evidence to date, which means it\'s just complaining about things that fans don\'t like. And that isn\'t the trope. (Arguing about the potential of a concept is meaningless -- anything can potentially be DeusExMachina when context is removed.)

So really, we\'re talking about a general feeling within the fandom as a whole that the entire silver eyes storyline could have been handled better across all six volumes, with people have different strengths of feeling about the matter and having different talking points about what they like and dislike about the storyline.

So really, we\\\'re talking about a fandom that debates accuracy, but not quality -- a general feeling within the fandom as a whole that the entire silver eyes storyline could have been handled better across all six volumes, with people have different strengths of feeling about the matter and having different talking points about what they like and dislike about the storyline.

There was also a general sense within the fandom at large that Ruby was too incurious about her silver eyes. Again, even though there are fans who point out that there are valid reasons for why she wouldn\'t be able to learn more information prior to Volume 6, even those fans tend to agree that the delay could have been handled better.

There was also a general sense within the fandom at large that Ruby was too incurious about her silver eyes, and that there was too long a delay before we started learning actual information about the power or see Ruby using that power. Again, even though there are fans who point out that there are valid reasons for why she wouldn\\\'t be able to learn more information prior to Volume 6, even those fans tend to agree that the delay and Ruby\\\'s attitude all could have been handled better.

So really, what exists is a fandom that has broad agreement on the fact the silver eyes storyline could have been handled better, with some fans being extremely angry or intolerant about it, other fans shrugging their shoulders over it, and everything in between. There\'s no real division of opinion here, just grades of how strongly people feel about it.

There\'s also no \'other side\' regarding people thinking the silver eyes build-up being badly handled \'versus\' people who were excited to learn more about the silver eyes. Given that most of the fandom generally agrees the build-up was badly handled, most of the people who were excited to learn more came from \'the same side\' as it were. The same is true for the post-Volume 3 delay in learning more information. We\'re talking about a general feeling within the fandom as a whole that the entire silver eyes storyline could have been handled better across all six volumes, with people have different strengths of feeling about the matter and having different talking points about what they like and dislike about the storyline.

There was also a general sense within the fandom at large that Ruby was too in-curious about her silver eyes. Again, even though there are fans who point out that there are valid reasons for why she wouldn\'t be able to learn more information prior to Volume 6, even those fans tend to agree that the delay could have been handled better.

That\'s not BrokenBase. There is broad agreement within the fandom that the build-up to the reveal of Ruby\'s power wasn\'t done well. Some people might argue that there was no foreshadowing and so accuse it of being a DeusExMachina and then be corrected over the fact that there was foreshadowing and therefore DeusExMachina is being misused; however, even the people who make those corrections tend to point out the foreshadowing was and build-up could have been better.
