Looking at some of the reviews of RWBY: Ice Queendom, they actually did a pretty okay job so far.
The first 3 episodes is literally a super condensed version of Volumes 1 and 2(with a small bit of 3) with the retarded Jaune Arc subplot that basically made watching Volume 1 unbearable completely gone(This isn't new, Japan literally doesn't like anyone from PRNJ to the point they barely show up and especially Jaune so most of his shit just gets removed).

Of course, I don't think it'll even touch past Volume 3 and start with it's actual plot because Japan never regards anything past Volume 3 well at all(to the point that in BB:CTB, RWBY and Neo are only at Vol. 1-3 and the potential other characters was only going to be in those volumes).

I’m surprised they left Toriyama’s original design for Black

I wonder how Funimation will try and censor that 🙄

>Their post don't even get deleted
>Non blue haired whale says " prepare for libsihits to start rioting
>Gets thread banned.

It was obvious for years but the mods there are a complete fuck joke. They're not even trying to give the illusion of being fair.
Fuck the cancerfe

Well, just watched what's available of RWBY: IQ on RoosterTeeth. Man, folks weren't kidding. That shit was super condensed, and they legit rapid-fired through the Jaune and JNPR segments, especially for the nightmare Grimm that showed up. Legit only gave us a tiny taste of what it can do to someone, because Jaune is so pathetically weak, it didn't have much Aura to grow on. :mjlol Looks like Urobuchi did as much as he could to make Jaune irrelevant, and only be there to hint at what's about to happen to Weiss on a much bigger scale. I approve, seeing as Miles' self insert was always a trash character, even by RWBY standards.

Animation was solid for the most part, though I am curious how IQ's version of the Grimm beheading by the canyon is going to be calced. I think it looked a little more impressive than the original, but I don't remember it all too well, and am too lazy to look that shit up.:tupac Character development was also rushed even faster than the original two volumes, and the chars end up even more underdeveloped as a result due to the breakneck pace. I do appreciate one addition though, which I can't remember if it was in the original or not, and that's Weiss being the one to be eaves-dropping on Jaune and Pyrrha and not Cardin, and its from here she gets the idea to play nice to Ruby, so that it might make her look better, being so supportive of what she considers to be a bad leader. They legit, with one change, made that coffee scene with Weiss make more sense and be in-character for her early character, rather than just doing an instant 180 because of Port.

Overall, it wasn't a bad watch. Nothing spectacular just yet, in my opinion, but even with the obvious flaws presented, I'd say its still worth watching a little further. Will need to see the newer content more for a further judgement, before deciding if its actually good, or chalked as fuck.

Worst- Professor Crowler from Yugioh GX
Because what is character development am I right? Especially for one of the better developed side characters from GX. 🤣

I mean are we just gonna ignore him putting his life on the line against a Shadow Rider in place of his students, stopping another teacher from bulldozing the Osiris Red dorm and being a big part of restoring Judai's optimism in Season 4. :maybe

I mean this same series had Professor Bonaparte (who was the one trying to bulldoze the Osiris Red dorm) and Cobra, the guy trying to leech energy from the students to bring his dead son back to life.

Cronos isn't even the worst teacher in this series, let alone among the worst in fiction.

dude chronos is the elite teacher that would put student in their place but is willing to protect his student when he needed to. He ain't bad in a way where he will try to destroy a student or shit.
