Based on what I've read about the ending and the clips I've seen, I may begrudgingly have to give Season 9 a shot. I've seen some commentary that it actually ended well. One thing I read said that the writing was actually pretty good for the first time in many seasons, possibly because they had nothing else to do except focus on the core characters without getting horribly distracted by so much ancillary stuff.

I was late to the game with RWBY and watched the first eight seasons straight through last year. Unlike many (most?) people, I've liked the later seasons better than the first three, but even in that light, I thought this latest one was exceptional.

People have gobbled up the darkness that has enveloped RWBY for the last several seasons. Their complaints, in my opinion, have been more about writing and certain creative choices, but from the 30,000-ft view people seem to have generally preferred the dark tone compared to the first seasons, which were far more lighthearted.

Most of the people who are watching RWBY at this point are those who prefer the newer form of storytelling. It's only natural for people who preferred the original style of the show to move on after such a long period of time.
I know many people who stopped watching RWBY due to its changes. I continue to watch it because I enjoy it, but I still prefer some elements of the original V1-3 that I feel have been lost in the transition. It's not always such an exclusive sort of concept, where you must enjoy one or the other. Also, Volume 1-3 had Pyrrha, so, y'know, that. I know people who stopped watching because of that.

If there is more Raven content and more Summer content in Season 10, that would help draw me back.

Ideally? No. Can’t do all of Vacuo in a single volume. The relic of choice is still hidden in Beacon, which is where I personally believe the final arc/battle will take place.
However, that’s subject to change. New realities over the budgeting of RWBY or the creative willingness to stick with the story may encourage a revision of the plot that ends the story at volume 10. If we even get a volume 10, haha… As it stands, we have no confirmation that a V10 is greenlit or being worked on… so, we’ll see. Maybe V9 was the final season, who knows? (As incredible as v9 was, I would hope not).
