Just two days ago, Erased ended. The series that I devoted my life to when it started in January, has just ended. I thought I should put up a post that would us talking about it.
So, did you guys like the ending of Erased? Spoilers will be marked below
The rating on MAL was a steady drop from it's initial score, with it at 8.92 right now. I remember during the half-point mark of the anime it was like a 9.10 average, I haven't rated it yet at that point. Both the manga readers and the anime-only people were excited for every episode. Me being part of the anime-only group. Towards the last few weeks, the manga readers were getting concerned. They were talking about how there was so many chapters left for only about 3 episodes left. At this point,
What happened? It got rushed. Warning, I am not going to mark any spoilers past this line of text.
I don't know how the ending in the manga goes, but apparently this was an anime-original ending, with new material. The last episode was good, not going to lie, but it was rushed and so damn melodramatic. Like homie, please, you are a freaking murderer, not a philosopher. I like how Satoru toyed with Yashiro's emotions to make him admit that he wasn't going to kill Satoru. That conversation was little melodramatic for my taste but I liked the execution. Love that wink. People who said that they did like the ending say that there is no loose ends which made it a great ending. I beg to differ. Remember the whole reason why Satoru was able to go back to 1988? You know, that thing called Revival. I don't remember a explanation about it. Why out of all of all people does Satoru have this time-traveling power? I need a explanation, it boggles my mind. If there was a moment where they did explain it, I might have fallen asleep at that moment. At least there was a cute moment to compensate for it. Not to mention Pizza-chan.

That was my little rant. I still have it as a 10 on my MAL, so the ending didn't really make me hate the complete series. All in all, the ending ticked me off a bit, but still loved every other part!
Thanks for reading!

- Episode 10 Spoilers:
- Yashiro was the killer, as many speculated(not me, I was blind to the fact that he was a red herring). Satoru had nearly drowned and then there was a major cliffhanger.
