I can't get into RWBY.
If someone can convince me that it gets better maybe I'll give it another go, but the look of it just kind of pulls me out of the story.

If by the look you mean the animation style, I know a guy who felt the same why. He likes the show now, but it tool him a few tries.
Personally, I feel the story gets better, and the crew themselves have stated that they always intended for the first three seasons to be an intro to the overarching plot. That said, the show up to this point can be knocked out in about half of the afternoon, as the early episodes are usually under 10 minutes with this season approaching 20 minutes.
I would recommend just sitting down and watching as much as you ca then stopping and coming back later. See if you can make it to the current episode and decide then.
Also, as it has been said before the fights are beautiful, and the animation improves outside of fights as well; for example, background characters are no longer silhouettes in season 2.

StarDragon (01/12/2016) [-] You watch for the fight scenes. Same reason you watched Dead Fantasy, later seasons of RvB, and Haloid.

StarDragon (01/13/2016) [-] Simply referencing the addition of custom animation in the later seasons most of which was really good.
I started watching RvB because I saw the Tex vs Red Team fight

It's like this. If you have ever read a bad manga, or watched a bad show and you just do it because you are bored, or interested. You force trough about half of the series, it becomes habbit and you get used to it.
Deep inside you know its not worth it, it has mistakes, and it might even be bad. But it has become habbit. RWBY is kinda like that. The series is bad. REAL BAD. Every time I tell it to ppl, they rage, downvote etc etc because they either can't see the fact or they are just focused on different things on the show. But just because I know it's "bad", doesnt mean I can't enjoy it. It just has become habbit and I enjoye how semi average it is. But I would never recommend it to others, just because I enjoye it in a weird way.

2) I wouldn't be asking if I knew smart ass.

***** you need to calm the **** down. ogthegreat is right, mini-OP did state it as though it were bad in all aspects, meanwhile the animation, sound design, fighting sequences, music, and most important of all - no room for argument there - STORY.
I can see why people think it's bad, hell even I think it is bad in some aspects. It is no One Punch Man but still good in other ways.

ogthegreat (01/13/2016) [-] Uh, no, I'm not denying anyone's right to a different opinion. And if you have the time to make such an accusation, I don't see why you don't have time to respond to my comment.

ogthegreat (01/12/2016) [-] 1) I don't. I just took you for a more rational person. Or are you the type that only thumbs down just because you don't agree with someone?
2) Exactly what is stupid about it? Anon claimed RWBY is a bad series as if that were fact when that's subjective. That's all I pointed out. And the spoiler was just a joke.

mariox (01/12/2016) [-] To start off, I think its the "3D anime feel" that's might be throwing you off of the show, some people just don't like 3D anime, its ok. The style and appeal are very anime-like, while the story takes a more western approach. The story does get darker despite its visuals and it becomes a lot more action oriented in the latest volume(season). Volume 1 is slow and puts the basis of the show out for you to easily see it, and Volume 2 starts to pick up a lot faster while improving a lot of the show. Volume 3 is pretty good so far, with the darkest themes so far as well as some character growth(picking up from the previous volume that had some character growth too).

sanitarysan (01/12/2016) [-] it's not traditionally good it's really campy and cheesy and if you don't have a good time watching it you probably wont like it later on.

Best show for action for me. It is extremely stylized, amazing weapons Snipe scythe, rocket hammer, nunchucks flintlocks and mother ******* shotgun fists , great music as well. But thats where the good points end, filler is meh, animation out of combat is either bad or meh, chars are getting better but for the most part aren't there yet. If you don't like the combat scene's don't continue watching.

vultro (01/12/2016) [-] I couldn't either, at first it was because it was in English on CR so I wasn't used to it.
But I saw all the hype and gave it a second try, if you go headfirst for 3 episodes and still don't like it, then it might just not be for you.
The first season has a lot of short episodes but a lot of development and the writing is progressively better.

The main appeal of the show is how its very similar to a Japanese style high school based anime, except its over the top in a less cartoonish way.
The worst parts are where characters are running, but the scenes were characters are interacting close up are done with motion capture to help get expression's correct.
The show's very high energy for the most part and the music's rather well done.
tldr; Yang in there, baby

dagold (01/12/2016) [-] The animation has improved significantly but if the style of it (3D animation, computer generated, the like) isn't your thing, it will probably be difficult to be drawn in. If you are able to look past the cheesiness of the early episodes the writing gets steadily better and much darker as things go on.

Same. Animation just throws me the **** off. Makes me feel like a poorly done animation, thus i can't get into the story. Personal preference i guess

RWBY is animated by a bunch of nerds in a studio basement
Just because its looks weird doesn't effect the story line

zionsype (01/12/2016) [-] Tbh, the story is worse than the visuals.
I was really excited when I saw the trailers, and even after watching more, I can say that the best part about RWBY is the fight scenes.
But that's literally all it has going for it. The story is like something from a DeviantArtRP, the visuals are meh, and the comedy and dialogue is something that belongs on Cringechannel.

blokrokker (01/12/2016) [-] What exactly do you mean "the look of it"? I'll give you that the slice-of-life animations are a little stiff, at least in the first season (haven't gotten around to the second or third yet, whoops), but the combat scenes are top tier. If you like over-the-top action scenes with crazy as **** weapons and moves like I do, at least.
