Ironically, it's only when I lose the will to read it that a bunch of Usagi Drop chapters get released.

For anyone curious, the final chapter of Usagi Drop has finally been released, so you can see the awfulness in all its glory.

I guess you could say that. Reading the manga up to that point there are almost no hints that anything of that sort would happen until the last volume. Though even if it was hinted at it would still be a pretty bad ending.

As bad as the ending is, the people that actually LIKE the ending because it's not a cliche are far worse.

If the manga set out from the get go to portray a quasi-incestual relationship like The Tale of Genji I'd probably be fine with it, just means I wouldn't have read it in the first place. But I call bullshit on anyone saying that was the intention from the start. It was abrupt and out of nowhere and does not fit the theme from the rest of the manga.

It's nice to know there is a lot of outrage about the ending here. I continously bitch about it for that very reason. Usagi Drop was just so promising and interesting and now it's been ireedemably butchered. And it's not like I haven't come across lovely anime/manga endings before. Probably one in two of them have unsatisfying ones. Ah well, time to reread Yotsubato and pray Azuma doesn't have a similar mind implosion.

The mangaka has had a few other series, nothing as long Usagi Drop though. I actually did read one of them before, and it had a pretty oddly depressing ending.

Zorak posted:Well, if I remember reading correctly Azuma did use to write pornography... Nah, I doubt that'll happen. It's not really a drama comic anyway. Yeah, I've been reading My Girl, and it has been really good so far. Bit more if a serious tone than Usagi Drop, but still really nice in its own way.

It took me till the last few chapters to realise how strange all the ears looked in My Girl. I guess I read so much fantasy stuff that I passed them off as elf ears or something, but they're pretty odd. Anyways, just finished reading it and I'm glad that it had such a pleasent, feel-good ending. As much as I hate mentioning it and would rather let it go, Usagi Drops has kinda made me wary of manga like this and I always get that niggling feeling that something terrible is going to happen. Doesn't help that the majority of Japanese media seem to always shoehorn in the dumbest little twists to make their endings always a bit of a downer.
