Yesterday I would have recommended Blue Eye Samurai because the first several episodes were lightning in a bottle. Unfortunately I watched the finale last night and it was such incredible trash that it ruined the entire show.

What's wrong with the finale?

[–] JakenVeina@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

My guess would be they were expecting a moral payoff, and didn't get it. Mizu's "Violence only begets more violence, I must let go of my revenge" moment. Especiallly since the episode or 2 prior really seemed to be setting up for it.

I was offput by it as well, but a bad ending is one that has nothing interesting to say, or something really shit to say, or that isn't believable in some way, not just one I hoped would be different. Plus, this story isn't over.
