Once upon a time...
I should know better by now, but I keep going. Still, I feel the need to state this- Endings are painful. While I know that for every ending there are more beginnings, and that endings are part of the cycle of life, and that some lead to wonderful things that people go to and never look back with regret or anything, they still fecking hurt. I mean, look at me, all ranty. And I'm not even aching over something important, really.
For starts, I'll let you in on a secret indulgence of mine- I've been watching the Digimon dub on Toon Disney for a while now. Don't ask me which series, I don't know that much. The one where people spirit evolve, whatever. I'm assuming that doesn't happen in the other, but it might. Who knows? Not me, but any ordinary Digimon fan would. I oughta ask Reka sometime.
But yeah, I've been watching it. Caught most of the series, actually. That particular season anyway. And I've been enjoying myself with it too! I mean sure, it's cheesy as hell, some of the dubbing sucks, the transformations drag on and are a bit Sailor Moon-esque, and parts are just silly, but it's also a lot of fun. I think the morals behind it are great, I love the characters and their development, the animation's pretty good, and the plot was pretty good, if a bit predictable.
But why did it have to END? And so... so endingly! :gonk:
Mind you, the ending isn't bad. The reaffirmation of development and beliefs, the constant friendship and teamwork... it really was beautiful. In fact, I think it ended pretty well, except on thing- when they revived Kouichi (my favorite character), their D-tectors (or however you spell them) turned back into normal cell phones. Necessary for use in the human world I suppose, but to me it just symbolized that they'd never go back. Not to mention all the goodbye stuff with the spirits and Bokumon.
A good ending requires closure, of course. But to me, it also needs to show growth, reaffirmation, and new beginnings. It did so pretty well, except for one thing. It left no real loopholes to go back to the Digital World! >.<
I was gonna go back and catch the few episodes I missed (mebbe 5? All Koji and Kouichi ones too, of course). But in retrospect, does it matter? And knowing that I feel like that makes me annoyed too. I knew I should've waited to see the last episodes some more; endings always depress me. But even so...
I feel so anti-climactic now, crabbit.
Maybe this'll inspire me to write fanfic.
On the bright side though, a different season starts Friday at nine. ^_~
Ciao!
