Maybe it's about time to stop fetishizing anime originals? They ALWAYS turn out like this. The only ones that don't are the weird slice of life things that weren't really trying anything at all

Not always. When they're good they hit like nothing else. Lara just didn't stick the landing.

TTGL is nearly perfect IMO and I love how it ended but it got a lot of shit for its ending too back in the day.
I always considered it perfect though and it was a canon love story and marriage even if it ended bittersweetly. And even that bittersweetness was in line with everything else this show was about.
>>
Compared to what? The 2000 chapter seralized manga that shit their bed even worse when they end?
How is that better?
At least with an original I have a dark horse hope they can pull off the ending. The long running serializations NEVER stick the landing.

Eh it feels like she needs to leave because she needs to keep powering the light or something, it's just not well explained.

They will probably give it a proper ending in manga or OVA.

I believe she had to sacrifice her love for Mari to save Mari because she would have had to kill her otherwise.
Now she's a human and probably lost that saintlike love that only mermaids have, for better or worse. It's still love, because the wish that her love to Mari gave birth to was the desire to keep Mari alive and exist in her world. But the whole "true love" part is gone from her, this is why her colors aren't vibrant anymore. She became a normal human.

I would accept and probably still enjoy all that. I just don't get why they felt the need to end it with a literal goodbye too. She could have stayed with Mari now that she saved her and now that Mari actually loves her and wants her to stay. Even if she lost the fanatic, dewy-eyed kind of love she had before she could still love her in a normal way or at least stay with her. The whole last part was just utterly depressing, even if you don't care about yuri. Worse, Lara felt dead inside.

At that point nobody cares. But also how does that make any sense? The light that saved them came from Lara eating Mari's soul, and then Lara clawing Mari's soul back. Isn't the light all about Mari for 2/3rds of the episode?

It felt like she lost emotions. This is either sequel bait or they really really wanted bittersweet ending for no reason.
>>
>>291095586
The last 10 minutes completely changed the main character's personality and she doesn't seem to give a shit about her supposed "true love" that was made explicit earlier. And the character that suffered and even temporarily died for her, and lost several irreplaceable things through the series, is treated like trash.

Besides that we always get anime like Odd Taxi, Needy Girl Overdose or Girls Band Cry. I could list a lot of good originals with good endings but it ultimately depends on what each of us likes.

She was able to get the soul out because she switched true love from Mari to the world Mari is living in.

So if she stayed and went all out with Mari she would probably love her more than the world and dagger would try eating her again so she decided to go away.

Or something. Who the fuck knows it's not like they explained it? It feels like it's missing some epilogue scene a year later when she comes back and explains herself.

My issue isn't even just that it's bittersweet (that can be good if done well), but that it's cryptic. She also talked about finding a new light and refused to answer, whatever all that means. I don't they plan or even intend to hint a sequel, it's probably symbolism that passes over most people's head, my own one included. I can imagine some possible solution, but there are too many contradictory or confusing smaller scenes that kinda disprove my possible explanations.

In Lara’s case I think it’s less “find herself” and more she wants to see more of the human world, seeing she gave up being a mermaid and essentially her original identity to stay human, hence her significant appearance change. I agree with >>291095621 take that Lara sacrificed a part of herself to save Mari.
I don’t hate it but it does seem too abrupt and needed some more explanation on Lara’s part.

Odd Taxi is an adaptation of a manga. Girls Band Cry would've had a great ending if it ended one episode earlier. The final episode felt like it was setting up season 2 which it probably will get (eventually).

The only explanation for her sad/cold smile I have is that she absolutely has to kill Mari if she let her be her true love. This is why she goes away (because she wants Mari to live, because she loves her), why she talks to Luca about finding another light (to create the light needed but without having Mari involved), why she refuses to answer, why she looks sad when she goes and why she tells Mari that she indeed "meant" it when she said she wanted to live with her.

tl;dr it's the "I love you more than anything else but being near you would be dangerous for you so I leave because I want you to live" kind of ending.

Lara lost what made her, her. She was a mermaid, and the bright and colourful person she was was her mermaid self. She sacrificed that person to save her love, Mari.

Over the six months, this new human Lara probably realized that she no longer could be that person Mari wanted her to be, and decided giving them both distance would be better than the melancholic relationship they would have if they stayed together. Or the human Lara is just a cold person with a phone addiction. Whichever, I dunno.

That's a response to Mari telling her Lara said she wants to live with her. Lara meant it. Then Mari asks why she's leaving then.

And Lara just... doesn't respond for some reason.
>>
>>291095814
Yeah this is what I think too. My issue is just that I think that tragedy or bittersweet wasn't needed here. The whole deal with killing your true love felt very forced in and artificial to make an otherwise uplifting, funny and adorable show dark and dramatic and I don't like it. It never even felt very logical that she had to kill her true love just because she got mad about a love interest once 300 years ago. Her love for Mari and humanity as a whole should have overwritten the hatred that she bore.

It's a shame because I sometimes love bittersweet endings, but this was absolutely not the type of show for that and there is so much shit going on irl that I wouldn't complain about a super rare anime with plot that actually ends with everybody being happy.

What's that motivation to undo a happy ending in the very last few minutes?
>>291096022
The Odd Taxi manga is an adaption of the anime not the other way around. It was a no budget show from a few weirdos that didn't expect it to be successful and rather viewed it as some sort of art project. They didn't even plan to release BDs, they only went into production because fans backed them hard and this is when the manga started too.
Speaking about it I still hope they will write a script for a new anime at some point.

I wonder if some familial grief that causes the issue which is why she's eager to dedicate the rest of her life to convincing those retards that humans aren't always evil.
Would be depressing as fuck though if that was the reason for why she had to leave and that she couldn't be with Mari or anybody else as long as her stupid family doesn't approve of humans. She should just let them die then. If even her sister can learn the others have no excuse.

The saddest part is that Mari is usually not even the type of person that loves someone romantically and gets too attached. Lara spent a whole season slowly, very slowly, winning her over and the moment Mari loves her back and realises that she needs her and almost sacrifices her life for her Lara just switches over and says "no, goodbye" and Mari has to deal with it now without even knowing exactly why it happens.
Fucking shit behavior. I wouldn't mind a separation if it was fairer to Mari and better elaborated. Bet Mari will never get attached to anybody anymore now.

I'm confused, was her relationship with Kouta not true love? What was stopping her from kissing him and creating the light? I know they said Lara was the fated one but it didn't seem like there was anything stopping the other mermaids from finding true love.

I liked it. Would I want a more passionate ending between Masaki and Live, Tokage and Masaki's imouto, and Yuki and her quest to become the cutest dork ever? Yeah. But the ride was pretty good.

NareNare deserves an apology after this finale as well.

>>291096818
Only one princess can be the chosen one and control the light. They didn’t know which one it was until Lara died the first time.
>>
>>291096818
I think it was true love in our sense but I think the actual bearer of the light needs true love and shit
>>
>>291096888

But Rigmor and Grace (the witch) both were able to control light. Although Grace has to eat hers.

Retarded argument, most anime originals get some shitty movies to make money, doesn’t change the anime itself. I hope akiba maid wat gets one as well.
>>
>>291097959
ODD Taxi movie was fine are you one of those retards that thought the anime ending was suspenseful? you didn't really think Odokawa was going to get killed by a fucking 4 foot 20 year old girl did you?
>>
>>291096031
This is my interpretation as well. Lara is cursed, after experiencing rejection/heartbreak she transitions from the fairy tale mermaid to the folkloric monster, the siren. Lara at this point could only kill/consume the person that she loves, after which she transforms into a witch like Grace.

In order to avoid Grace's fate Lara has to abandon "true love". After doing so she transforms into a human being which signifies her shedding her fairy tale nature and becoming real. She becomes like Mari, blind and unable to "see".

I didn't think that but I also didn't think that it would end with everyone singing kumbaya and that none of the build up mattered, all of the threads will live on in my memory but there's no way back after that.

Concrete Revo
Active Raid
Haifuri
Akiba's Trip since is pretty much different from the game to the point is it's own thing.
Anime Gataris.
Toji no miko.
Revue Starlight, I don't remember if the stage shows came first or the anime
Zombiland Saga S1
Endro.
Lapis ReLiGHTs, the anime came way before the mobage
Appare Ranman
Akudama Drive
Build Divide
Soukou Musume Senki
Back Arrow
Denchi Shoujo
Akiba Maid
Ars no Kyojuu
16bit Sensation, the anime is WAY different than the manga.
Bravern
Shuumatsu Train
Maebashi Witches
Hibimeshi
>>
So when is the movie coming out where they go full yuri?
