yeah anime original endings are rarely a good idea. stories are long and anime is expensive to make, so a lot of the time these days its just a fancy way to get you aware of cool manga/novels frankly, the worldbuilding in this is dope enough that im glad theres a lot more story. im definitely going to start the novels once i have the time

Basically the work has a pre-existing tone, and so that limits the possibility space of possible endings. Even if at first brush it seems like they aren't directly related.

KillHour posted:Yeah, I know. Like I said, I just don't have the patience for something that strings the audience along that much. It's not a fault of the show, just my own preferences. Lots of series have gone to anime original endings and it's blown up in the face in more than one franchise. You're not exactly aware of how anime production works out read much ongoing series do you?

Quite a lot of fiction has a "happy ending" and doesn't bother to remind us of the mostly-nameless people who died along the way.

If you take a military thriller-esque work like Gundam, lots of nameless people die, but some of the main characters can clearly still have happy endings ever after; win their peace, and so on. But the idea of "people die in war" is kinda baked into the genre in a way that is independent of tone. Then you have works where its pretty clear that maybe someone might have a happy ending, but it won't be the main characters.

Volume 5 of the light novel is out and it's a wild ride and it confirms a lot of what I suspected but in completely different ways
