Watamote ending: A rather enjoyable season finale. The comedy definitely dropped off by the end of the series, but an excellent series overall. You really feel for Mokochi and how lonely she is... and then she does some rather scary things and you think "nope, she deserves it".
Symphogear G episode 12: The sub was a week late, AGAIN. annoying. I was realllly worried Shirabe was going to die for a while. I liked her. everyone seems to think episode 12 was the finale, but i'm not so sure. the cliffhanger was nowhere near "series finale" level, too many hanging plot points. If i remember correctly, episode 12 of the first season ALSO looked like a season finale, but it ended up being 13 episodes. So hopefully there's one more episode to go.
Gen'ei ending: This show started out incredibly slow paced and dull. middle way it became too depressing and drudged down, became hard to watch. final few episodes though were really, really good, leading up to this finale which was VERY good. very action packed, very dramatic. I wish the whole series had been like that.
only complaint I have about it is that the final fight kinda drummed up this idea of them working as a team and saving the day, but nope, in the end it was just Akari one shotting the main villain by trying very hard. I enjoyed the characterization of Luna towards the end. She was a wet blanket for most of the season, but took a massive level in badass in the last couple of episodes.
