    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.

      No clue what this guy is about, it’s an amazing show and I don’t have any problems with its finale

        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.

          I mean, there was plenty of hints that she wouldn’t be letting go of her grudge the whole time. The whole parallel to the demon was a big one, but she even said that she might not come back for the sword.

          I only had the indication that she was the type who will only find peace once she gets her revenge
