Oh god the bleach ending. Even Naruto wrapped up better than that. I can't believe it was literally he sliced the big bad in half and that was it. Like. Literally. It;s the WORST ending I've ever seen in anything.

The minions got better, longer fights. There's plot details all over the fucking place, definitely should've ended with Aizen.

The fact that Naruto did better says a lot about the quality of Bleach's ending. What the hell did they do without Aizen, though? Wasn't he supposed to be the be-all, end-all antagonist?

How did AC end? Too lazy to look up, yet I do wanna hear your thoughts about it.
Same for Nisekoi which I heard about, and... Ugh, I never liked it to begin with, and the ending only made me hate it all the more...

The ending of Assassination Classroom? MAJOR SPOILERS INCOMING
Koro-sensei sacrifices himself to save everyone and he's pretty much going to die from his wounds anyway so they kill him to put him out of his misery because they love him. Then they all grow up and become successful.

Nisekoi's ending sucked. MAJOR SPOILERS! Where is my Kosaki end? :(

What about DBS? Was that a manga first? J-Stars told me they own JoJo (Why are JoJo 1 and 2 in there, and not 3? I thought 3 was most popular?) and isn't that still going?

DBS? Dragonball Super? Uh, I think the anime and manga for that are running at the same time at the moment. The manga doesn't run in Weekly Shounen Jump though. And yes, Jump owns Jojo but that too is in their monthly magazine. And yes, Jojo is currently on Part 8 and still going strong.

My theory is that Aizen was going to help them beat Yhwach, only for him to turn around and go "just as planned" and reveal that everything, including his sealing was exactly what he wanted to happen the entire time and he would be the final boss. But then it got cut short and it never happened.

This actually happened a couple of weeks ago, and odds are nobody cares but me, but Realm of the Mad God now belongs to Deca Games, and not the evil overlords Kabam, and as such may become a great game again.

Ash lost on kalos, and the japanese fandom disliked by 30K the next episode preview on youtube dislikes.
The fandom is so angry that some of them cancelled the S&M preorder.

and Mega Charizard X is getting cosmical ammounts of hate, now you can't play withit without being called an asshole.

Blaze Burn memes are being born.

What surprised was the way he lost,when greninja shot a giant water shuriken it didn't seem to hit when it collided so either:

A)Team plasma absorbed its energy and thus made alain win. or
B)Water shuriken evaporated.

but it was weird because greninja could tank 2 frenzy plants from mega sceptile but not a blast burn.

Nobody would've been shocked if the writers hadn't hyped Ash up as the possible victor this time around. He has a legitimately good team, he did incredibly well against Diantha (that is, the champion), and he'd already lost to his opponent (Alain) twice, making this the perfect time for a comeback. Ash was clearly being set up to win this time, and everyone was getting hyped up about it.

Then he lost.

Not only did he lose; he lost in the worst way possible. Both Greninja and Charizard are standing on opposite sides of the battlefield, Charizard looks like it's going to fall... and then Greninja falls instead. This after twenty years of leagues that Ash just isn't allowed to win.

The only way the writers will be able to redeem themselves is if the Team Flare arc is fantastic and Ash defeats Alain (though many have said that this will only make Ash the moral victor at best). Some, however, want Ash to go on and publicly defeat Diantha, making him the new Champion, even though it probably won't happen.

I read somewhere that team flare could have ruined the fight by absorbing the water shuriken energy.

Honestly, it makes sense that Team Flare would be willing to cheat to make Alain win. He's supposed to be their pawn, so having someone with such influence under their thumb would be to their benefit. If that's the case, the writers had better give Ash a rematch with Alain, because otherwise it means that he was literally robbed of his victory.

Oh, that reminds me of the last thing that fans hated: Ash's reaction to his loss. In earlier seasons, Ash was always disappointed or angry whenever he lost a league match, but he accepts his defeat with such a sense of calmness that it almost feels fake. This after he made a speech about how he was going to win the league for all the trainers out there...
