90% of mangas are written by antisocial weirdos and its always only a matter of time before they fuck up and fumble it all

my favorite manga of all time is made in abyss yet I cant even read it anymore because the author is letting the weirdness seep in to art again, seriously wish they had an editor that has the balls to tell him to become normal

made in abyss was deadass one of the best mangas (behind aot, tomdachi game, and maybe tokyo ghoul). Couldn't predict and always was on the edge of my seat finding something new. Then everything became weird as fuck with the teacher and other girl tryna chase the mc. Juujika no Rokunin same thing. After time skip is just became the authors weird fantasy with r*pe and weird ass shit like someone lock this mfer up

It was the laziest, most rushed and the shittiest ending ever and I'm glad that at least 99% of the fanbase agrees with me and this isn't a fandom splitting decision like AoT or MHA where a good portion of people think that the ending was good.

Literally so infuriating considering how the rest of it was a masterpiece (in my opinion). I feel like they could've done so much more with it but instead of giving closure to like... all the characters they just [insert moral message about persevering] and call it a day.

i think u misunderstood the ending.
ruby still has black star eyes, indicative of her trauma - she's still lying to herself saying that she has healed etc. she won't really move on from either trauma she experienced

the rest of the characters make sense:
kana: had to be kept pure/in the light so she reacted the most viscerally to aqua's death bc she was meant to bring him out of his dark persona. though she only accepted the lies presented to her by aqua

akane: willing to do anything for aqua, accepted the liar behind the lies. while morally ambiguous she will recover the best out of the 3 main girls

also you have to understand that the harem/incest subplot was always bait, the fact that aqua died this way and ended up with none is to be ironic

I don't think I misunderstood the ending, I think I simply didn't say enough in my original comment to convince you otherwise. I guess I was mainly referring to the last chapter because I was really looking forward to it and it didn't deliver the way I wanted it to.

Also, incest is quite blasphemous and I really did not like that part of the story, and being a romantic reader I actually prefer it when the protagonist ends up with someone instead of uhhh... expiring right at the end.

not meeting expectations != a bad ending.

i agree that incest is morally reprehensible. ayasaka sensei is wry enough to bait it throughout the manga. hes the kind of guy to ironically put it in, but never commit to that premise.

Endings to stories are subjective and to me, not meeting expectations when the rest of it had been so enjoyable makes it a most disappointing ending.

I do respect your thoughts and where you're coming from.

It was a bad ending because of multitudes of reasons, not just because it didn't meet the expectations of the readers.

I mean there are just so, so fucking many inconsistencies and problems that I can write an essay one, but just to name a few, Aqua's method of dealing with Kamiki being unrealistic and quite stupid, all that build up for Kana's confession led to absolutely nothing (total time waste), Akane couldn't save Aqua, Aqua dies twice and throws away his life twice, the crow girl plot line is left completely loose, the last few chapters were Aqua coming to terms with Ai's death and choosing living over revenge, all of which is completely ignored.

No build up, everyone got screwed, insanely sloppy writing. After Aqua's death, there should have been at least 10 chapters dedicated to the aftermath, showing us how the entire cast copes and grows through Aqua's death. Instead we got a fucking powerpoint slideshow with shitty narration. Ruby got NO DIALOGUES after Aqua's death, not even an internal dialogue. It is just bare proof of how rushed the ending was and literally everyone agrees.

Unlike AoT and MHA, nobody is defending OnK, and deservedly so. Even the people who admit to liking the ending are saying that the ending was bad but they like it because of some eccentric reasons.

I really can’t tell if this is a good ending or a bad ending. It’s realistic to some extent, but good or bad is up for interpretation.

It’s realistic because revenge always begets tragedy and there is (usually) never a good outcome.

+++Aqua dying left a lot of loose ends, and while his death was tragic, it impacted everyone.

However, my main gripe is that Ruby essentially became Ai 2.0, even though it was stated that she wanted to become her own “idol,” though she has surpassed Ai to some extent. The whole “lies will become someone’s truth” is a good concept but it wouldn’t really be Ruby’s “style.”

My ideal ending would’ve been to coincide Aqua’s revenge to the Dome performance so there’s a lot more emotional depth from every character, and it would culminate to that final arc.

Oh well, still a fun read.
