I'm currently reading Soul Eater and Claymore and just found out both authors weren't happy with how their series ended. Now I'm in this weird spot where I'm still enjoying them but also kinda bracing myself for disappointment. For anyone who's finished either one, without spoiling anything, are the endings actually bad or just not quite what the authors envisioned? I can usually enjoy a story even if the ending isn't perfect, but I'm curious if I should lower my expectations since I'm really liking both of them so far.
>>284814217I haven't read Claymore, but Soul Eater I feel just had an unsatisfying conclusion in some ways. It wasn't terrible, but there were so many things that the story could have done but didn't. Loads of questions about the world gone unanswered, loads of characters with arcs that just didn't quite feel complete. Things like that. I'm told to read Fire Force for that, but I wanted those things to be explored with the characters I'd gotten to know and had a specific interest in how they would react to the answers and revelations, I wasn't just in for the answers for their own sake. I also felt like Soul Eater had a fantastic feel to it that originally drew me in, vibes, for lack of a better word, that it lost over time and never got back even in the better written parts of it.
