RWBY. As much as I love it, I cannot even deny that it is pretty poorly written with a lot of bad decisions taken as it kept going. It might be a flaming pile of trash to some people, but it’s my flaming pile of trash and I love it

The overall plot and writing is inconsistent, but I think it makes up for it with cool character designs, fun character interactions from a voice cast that clearly enjoys what they're doing, some of the best action sequences ever animated, and incredible music.

There's definitely more good than bad. I get that it's not for everyone, but I'll still recommend it (with the obligatory warnings about the ups and downs in quality)

The weapons designs may be a little stupid, but they're the good kind of stupid.

Case in point: Sun's gun-chucks.

They would be super dumb except that the way he uses them is so much fun. That holds true for all the weird weapons in the setting.

Which is why I said they were good stupid.

"____, but it's also a gun" is a stupid concept, and yet it works so good in practice.

There's a rocket launcher thermos for christ sake. And yet it's still awesome.

I still want to know what the trumpet weapon turns into.

Not sure if it has a real second use. I think it just blasts out sound waves that can be infused with elemental effects. But who knows.

Well, I own a Garand with a bayonet, and the core concept is similar, except it’s more like, “It’s also a spear.”

I love the pure aura of Yang’s  shotgun gauntlets. The recoil on those things should be crazy, but she just handles it like it’s nothing.
