I've never watched an episode of RWBY but literally every piece of engagement/art/gifs/etc., I've seen of it as an outsider has been of one of the female characters. To the point where I was pretty much under the impression it was an all-female cast.

Jaune is pretty well-known inside the fandom for being a self-insert and taking up a ton of attention for whenever he's in a scene. He and Ruby are the two characters with some of the deepest developments.

Also, many of the big favorite characters are male. Crow, Roman, Ironwood, Oz. The female cast outside of the main group are definitely powerful but they never seemed to have the same audience pull except for maybe Crow's sister, Neo, and Salem.

I'm shocked I remembered any of these names, tbh. I fell off that show in Season 5 when it was clear that they wouldn't reach the same heights as Season 3 ever again.

Eh, I feel it gets better after seasons 4 and 5

That's heartening. I lost track/interest during season 4. It dropped hard after Monty. I'll have to pick it back up some time.

Yeah, 4 and 5 are ROUGH, ngl. But 6 is one of my personal favorites, and everything after that varies from "okay" to "great", imo
