Vengeance saga Thoughts/ more specifically 600 Strike thoughts

SPOILERS BELOW

So I like many others have a bit more complicated thoughts about the ending of the vengeance saga. But I come out of it with ultimately one feeling on top of the others which is respect. I have a lot of respect for this ending as an artist.

Sure there are parts of it that I find a little ridiculous (ie.the jet pack fight), but there are other parts of it that I love so much ( ie. The stabbing scene).

Because at the end of the line it was a choice that stands where it is even if it might be divisive or not quite what everyone wants from it. Which is fine honestly, it is more than fair that not every fan is on board with its decision. Because art isn't supposed to make everybody like it, it's supposed to make the people that like it love it.

Jorge has been very open about his anime inspirations for the musical, and it's written all over it. And here is where it makes itself known the strongest in an unmistakeably strong way. It wears its inspirations and heart on its sleeve and basked in it.He invoked the rule of cool so hard this saga. And as an artist, as someone who loves making stories and loves the art of storytelling itself it makes me really inspired. I love and respect the hell out of seeing an artist go this is how I'm going to make my story go, because this is how I'm going to be happiest about it.

And it is perfectly fine for people to see that and say that they did not like where that decision went. To say this isn't for them. The people that don't like it won't like it and the people that do will love it.
