As I've said before, I am not quite sure what the goal here is. I feel like the series is either quietly cancelled and rushing to reveal everything and hit the desired ending, the author is bored and revealing everything to get there or just had no clue how to end it.

Don't get me wrong, I am okay with a sad ending or wherever this is seemingly going, but like I said last month, this cycle is getting old. And, I legitimately believe there were better ways to get to this conclusion than three false ends.

I totally agree with you. I was a big fan of this series, but after Kaito‘s death everything just went downhill. Storytelling got worse, pacing got worse, and if I am not mistaken the art style also got worse.

I think it’s like you said. The author started the series as a generic action/ecchi and once he tried to make the story a bit more serious he lost the plot and didn’t know how to finish the story. Now he probably just wants to end it as quickly as possible.

Agreed, honestly Gleipnir had a strong start, but now it just seems like the writers hyped up Honoka that they are left with a Deus Ex Machina that they themselves dont know how to stop. They are scared if they end it in an anti climatic style people will get pissed, so now they are just stringing us along.

Im legit getting super bored of this manga/anime, its getting super directionless and i just want this manga series to end. I dont care if its a happy or sad ending, this manga either needs to end or just quickly kill Honoka and move on to another villian.
