I think I'll stop watching anime altogether again.
Just finished The Count of Monte Cristo. I haven't read the book, so I can't be sure if the adaptation is tight or just following anime cliches. You spent 22 episodes building up the main plot... You were going very well even if the setting would be nonsensical sometimes... But you had to ruin it, didn't you? You had to follow the stupid shounen rule that your main guy must survive everything and anything that might pose a threat to him and live happily ever after anyway.
The "real" ending/finale was rushed, some bullshit happens, and then BAM! "Everybody say love! Everybody is forgiven! Oh and let me KISS YOU to destroy that sort of demon living inside of you".
Very good plot (adaptation of course, can't expect such storytelling and characters from anime), beautiful art style and soundtrack, awful setting (people don't have phones but they can travel at light speeds and ride mechas), and awful ending.
