I dropped this... and it seems that was a good call huh?
The final arc is all over the place. Part of the problem is that the authors seem to have lost their food consultant around the time of the final arc, so instead of using real cooking ideas, they go overly shonen in food cooking techniques and it gets incredibly stupid. Part of the problem is that the arc is very Erina focused, but they have nothing to do with her so it ends up going nowhere and then backwards for a little bit before she ends up exactly where she started the arc. Meanwhile none of the other characters really get good development either. There is at least one good moment, but the whole thing is probably not worth it except for train wreck watching.
Probably. I wish that I had <_<
Actually, I wish that a lot. I guess I should be more selective of the stuff I stick with until the end. Ah well.
You just need to learn to swap gears when a series starts getting bad from "I'm enjoying this because it is good," to "I'm enjoying this because it is entertaining to watch it crash and burn in a spectacular fashion." That is the only way I was able to finish Bleach because I had to see how stupid it got at the end.
