Karna and Seig's "1st round" lasted a good chunk of the previous episode when they were flying around. The mage being there is well....they were all heading there so yea he made it there. Not sure it had to be shown that him and his sister landed on site. Not sure what you are getting at with Jeanne/Atlanta fight. | ||

Not sure what you are getting at with Jeanne/Atlanta fight. yep, I know barely any of their history so maybe the onus is on me there, just was odd that he went out of his way but I can see it I guess. For such a hyped fight, felt like the 1st round should've been shown much much more. Sure, the 2nd round took a good part of the later half of that episode but still, felt like that episode was more focus on destroying fortress defenses and such. they never showed how he got there amidst all the rubble and fires. Sure, I can postulate that the plane landed somewhere but it felt like a big disconnect to have him go from being in the air one episode to hiding behind a pillar at the end of the 1st fight in the next episode. This was probably the part that made me go wtf the most and check the previous episode again to see if I missed the landing. | ||

I kept thinking that they'll throw in a twist here or there but it was fairly straightforward in most regards. Highly recommended for anyone who hasn't watched it yet, it's that good! Art style is similar to 3 gatsu and it has good progression, pacing and believable characters. MC and Rin both rock and so do most of the other characters so that's a huge plus! If you want more there is a manga that completes the story  | ||

It completely changes in a different direction where you don't want it to go. Usagi drop is one of my favorite anime. I wish the manga would have given more of the same. I would completely agree with pretty much every review out there. The first half of the story focuses on what the anime shows - a man taking care of a child which is a 9/10 to 10/10, but the very next chapter in the manga(from where the anime left off) introduces a timeskip of around 10 years or so. The show completely changes pace and changes what it is.. 5/10 at best, as well as does wonders to ruining your view of the first half. Recommend to avoid. + Show Spoiler [miragee] + Ore no Papa ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai | ||

For me, the anime was perfect. Story, characters, sound, animation etc... it all fit really well. I figure the second half is Rin going off the deep end so she's obviously lost that innocence. Makes me wonder if she'll go back to her mom or something and leave Daikichi behind. That would be heartbreaking. | ||

But really, it just comes down to a matter of perspective. Yes, I would say that majority of people who completed the Usagi Drop manga were displeased with how it ended, but is a bad ending going to ruin the overall experience for you? I'll throw another really mundane hypothetical at you that would also leave a lot of people displeased (Daikichi gets sick and dies, leaving Rin alone at the end of the series). That conclusion is discomforting and obv not a happy ending, but would you be accepting of such an ending? Would that detract for your overall/animu experience? If you're open to whatever story the mangaka goes with, jump into the manga, cause you obv seem curious enough. If bad endings are not something you like, then avoid the manga and end on the fluffy animu note. | ||

Rin becomes different(obviously not a small kid anymore) but does not exactly become a bad character. It's just that the whole show becomes something completely different. If you are looking for "more usagi drop" then you won't get it, you will basically just get an average shoujo drama, with a disappointing ending. | ||

It feels like it's two completely different writers pre/post-timeskip. | ||
