Seems like this volume got review bombed a bit but those bombers did have some valid criticisms at times.
Without spoiling anything (because I do recommend this series). RWBY Volume 8 is a great wrap up of the atlas story taking a more gritty political approach to its story telling than previous volumes.
This does some great things for the tone of the volume but also seems to have highlighted CRWBY's writing team's lack of experience with that genre of storytelling. Many of these you will definitely notice during your watch through but they where never so problematic as to ruin my experience with the season. Although I hope that the writing team does learn a bit from this experience.
Animation and art is yet again on a new level (still dont like Yangs new glasses from last season! Aviators are way cooler!), keeping RWBY at the top of its genre of 3D anime yet again!
All in all its worth a watch and you'll get to know and care even more for team RWBY, JNPR and their entourage.
