I wanted to be able to get into it. I really did, but I just couldn't. The only character I found interesting was detective Shibazaki. Lisa was just a waste of space to me. Could you get into it okay?
Ah. Well, I
was.
Kids on the Slope (episodes 7–12)
I was enjoying this so much I finished it in only two sittings. It was set to become an all-time favourite of mine until I got to the last episode. I feel like I've been robbed. To me, it was like some kind of ill-advised prank or bizarre self-parody.
What an awful way to destroy a great series. Surely that's got to be right up there with
Mahoromatic season 2 as the most disappointing final episode in anime. I'm genuinely upset about it after investing so much in the characters and their stories. It just feels pointless now.
What did you make of it, dude?
