Not all shows need to leave you feeling good at the end. A good show makes you feel and makes you think.
I was depressed for 2 weeks after watching this show, the ending was gut wrenching
Pey just said: i will not allow to be broken beyond my actual broken self. I understand the choice he made, probably because i don't like to suffer for something like a show, but ironically enough, i found myself eagerly searching for a closure, i ended the story and regardless the pain and the loss, i got to the realization that the pain molded me to a better version of myself.
Yeah, edge runners, me too. When it won the anime award, it was quite a weird feeling.
It occurs to me that my recommendation for a miserable tragedy that doesn't make you misery quit would ruin it by mentioning and spoiling that it's definitely not going to end well.
Imagine if berserk was animated by the edgerunners creators
Re:zero. I’ve heard nothing but good things about it, it ticks most of the boxes for what I like in a show, and I couldn’t even tell you what I don’t like about it. I’ve watched the first season and loved it, but no matter how many times I watch it I can’t make it through season 2.
It's so odd having you state exactly what happened to me with that show. I still haven't finished it and now I know, all the more, why I won't. Thank you.
Bro when I hear the "I really wanna stay at your house" I just want to ball my eyes out
woah. loved this show so much but actually 3 episodes from the end I loved it even more. It was at that point you knew how the show was going to end. It was sad, but having the end made clear so far in advance made it easy to adjust when it happened.
Tragedies are actually pretty difficult for most people to enjoy, but I eat them up. I wonder why...
It's very interesting. I actually felt this at the very first episode of the show. I knew right away, despite a part of me really being interested in continuing to watch it, it's just not something I would enjoy or gain anything worthy from. It's exactly how you put it: When you finish a show feeling worse than when you started it, with no hope, yeah... that's it really.
Completely unrelated to anime, I would say the best example for me is Breaking Bad. I appreciate and respect it as one of the greatest TV series ever created but It's not the kind of story I'm into.
I love this show, and I cry nearly every time I finish it. It is the second saddest piece of media I have ever seen and it deserves more recognition
Made in Abyss. Its beautiful in a lot of ways and has fun bits, but I have a mental weakness to children being tortured and that crosses the line and never looks back.
Oddly enough, mine's Cyberpunk too. Like, I could see the quality, the love put into it, the writing is nice overall, the characters are lovable but flawed to the bone, but I still just wasnt as touched by it as others. When I looked up discussions about it online after finishing it, I was genuinely shocked that so many people cried to the ending, when I just mostly straight faced it. I really, genuinely wish I enjoyed it as much as other people, but I just didnt
Yeah for sure. Beautiful and action packed. Likeable characters and good humor. But I was so depressed by the end. I could never rewatch it knowing how it ends. How much it hurt to see everyone you liked die. I feel very similarly, but not as strongly about Rogue One.
It's Cyberpunk with expected end results, this is dystopia at it's finest. To me it's a masterpiece.
Well, if you're a street kid who falls into a life crime, you ultimately have 2 destinations. Your boy David got the latter.
