I’m mad because I came to this after finishing season 3 and…wtf. I get the ending, but the rest is disappointing.
Actually, the more I think about it, f+ck the ending. If you’re going to do an ending like that, it has to feel inevitable or like there’s no other options. Aqua was smart. He could have easily come up with a way to deal with Kamiki that didn’t require him dying. He could have cut himself then jumped, then swam to shore and his narrative would have still held. Unless self defence isnt a thing in Japan? Also, why would Aqua killing someone in self defence ruin Ruby’s career? They exposed Kamiki, no one would’ve defended him. I don’t know, man, the ending just doesn’t make sense. The only way it would make sense is if Aqua was suicidal, which he obviouly wasnt.
I loved this story so much. As an aroace person who has struggled with depression myself, this was the first time I related to a protagonist with my very being. I also didn’t mind the ending, though I wish we had gotten at least one chapter that focussed on the trio after everything. But it was at least implied they all get a happy ending, so I’m ok with that.









Um, I’m going to pretend that didn’t happen. Where’s the brain bleach?
