I recently rewatched, and I was left with the exact same impression.
River: I know you have questions. Mal: That would be why I just asked them.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
And the story line is way too slow. I miss the interest in all the various characters at Beacon.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Blake's story has definitely been dragging, a lot, this season, but I've been enjoying the other Beacon students having a chance to reunite and be friends again without the constant doom and gloom of the second half of season 3 and pretty much all of season 4.
But Blake's story has been incredibly slow and incredibly predictable. The only surprising thing so far is (True Colors spoiler) that both of Blake's parents have survived .
Of course, it's been so long since anything truly terrible has happened that I'm expecting the end of the season to gut punch us.

My wife and I have made it to season 2 and I just realized all the team up attacks that Ruby calls out in the fight against the giant robot are based on the color and/or names of the characters involved.

RWBY:
I'm not sure if they're just inconsistent on how Aura works or I just don't understand it properly.
It feels like a Final Fantasy game where the characters can take tons of potentially lethal hits when they're on the combat screen but can get one-shotted during a cutscene.
I think in the entire series the only time we've seen them show that someone's Aura was depleted before they took a serious wound was the end of Season 3.

Well, I'm officially surprised by something that happened this season.
Also, we apparently get 14 episodes this season instead of the usual 12.
I am rather annoyed that Blake's story the last two seasons seems even more pointless because it's looking like the Faunis aren't even going to show up until it's too late.

Also, apparently Jaune is a paladin now. Which kind of makes sense considering his namesake.
