* [[Base Breaker]]: Jaune. Annoying Gary Stu who's just there because he's Miles Luna's [[Author Avatar]] or a sweet, loyal guy who's willing to do anything for his friends.
* [[Genius Bonus]]: In V3E1, as Emerald says her teammates are "socially awkward", we get a closeup on Mercury sniffing the inside of a boot from a vendor at the fairgrounds. The implication is that he's a little weird, and that's how Team RWBY takes it. But actually, the smell of the leather of which they're made is an indicator of the quality of a pair of boots, so Mercury is actually doing something appropriate if he's seriously considering buying them.▼
** Blake is the most divisive character out of core four due to her being involved with controversial 'White Fang' arc as well as her actions regarding Yang and Sun. Blake's supporters often argue that her actions were justified as she needed to leave the team as Adam coming back was too much for her and try and downplay Blake's attitude to Sun. Her detractors point out that leaving just when Yang need her the most was awful. Her attitude regarding is seen by these people as overreactive at best and being no better than Adam at worst. There's also the fact she's never called out on running away from the team (to her face anyway).
** Pyrrha. A badass, kind-hearted girl that was Too Cool to Live or a boring, overhyped Mary Sue who should've been removed from the show sooner?
* [[Broken Base]]: {{Spoiler|Pyrrha's death.}} A sad moment that was given to an amazing character or an overhyped scene from the fandom? There's also a variation of the second opinion that think this way because they simply don't like Pyrrha and thus feel nothing for the scene. [[It Was His Sled]] has also made this worse.
** Another scene that also doesn't help the above is the 'statue' scene. Is it a sad but fitting tribute to Pyrrha or is it an annoying ploy to get fans' attention by guilt tripping them? Again, opinions of the latter varied because they wanted to be over their favorite character's death or because they didn't care about her in the first place. Even some Pyrrha fans have admitted to thinking the latter opinion.
* [[Draco in Leather Pants]]: Adam Taurus is a typical example of this trope: he is an emotionally abusive, murderous extremist, but how his cause is in general a good one and he is physically attractive, many fans try to argue he may not be so bad as he looks.
▲* [[Genius Bonus]]: In V3E1, as Emerald says her teammates are "socially awkward", we get a closeup on Mercury sniffing the inside of a boot from a vendor at the fairgrounds. The implication is that he's a little weird, and that's how Team RWBY takes it. But actually, the smell of the leather of which they're made is an indicator of the quality of a pair of boots, so Mercury is actually doing something appropriate if he's seriously considering buying them. Given that ''RWBY'' is made in [[Texas|cowboy country]], this is almost certainly a deliberate detail.
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: Pyrrha says to Jaune in V2E7:
{{quote|And thanks to you, I've made friendships that will last a lifetime.}}
:It's a sobering moment when you realize, {{spoiler|looking back after the end of V3, that that lifetime was going to be measured in ''weeks''}}.
:* In 'The Stray', when Weiss elaborates about why she hates the White Fang and thus all Faunus, barely any fans had sympathy for her. Come to the later volumes where we see how deplorable the White Fang can be and how bad Jacques's abuse could be.
* [[The Scrappy]]: Cinder Fall. Sure, she's nightmarishly evil, but there are ''RWBY'' fans who want her to leave the show instead of simply getting her comeuppance. It doesn't help that she has what one would call a "power fetish", which isn't exactly uncommon among villains. Volumes 6 and 7 have given her character development, but only to a small extent.

* [[Unintentionally Sympathetic]]: For some, the show showing how bad her childhood was, Weiss became this in the earlier volumes.
[[Category:YMMV]]▼
* [[Unintentionally Unsympathetic]]: Blake. With her ditching her team (mainly Yang) in V3-4 and her yelling and slapping of Sun when he was just trying to help her. Many people don't think Blake deserves any of their support.
