I figured going into this it'd be a very generic time skip end, but even by that standard this was very underwhelming. This doesn't even feel like an ending, more that the author wanted a time skip and then finished the chapter and went "ehhh actually I'm done with this story."

Thanks to the translators and scanners for all their hard work.

This is such a nothing ending that it's disappointing. I don't necessarily need a long denouement, all the plot threads wrapped up, or whatever. But this feels like it ended too soon, and then it just happened with almost no impact. It's like they ended in the middle of them taking bites out of sandwich during a regular lunch. It feels so abrupt that I wonder if something is/was going on behind the scenes.

A little underwhelming and I can't escape the feeling that the author fell so far down the cosplay rabbit hole that they forgot about the romance and character interactions that hooked people in the first place, then panicked to wrap everything up after spending so much time talking about fabric and the "deep" nature of cosplay.

Also kind of annoyed at the finale for tossing out the line that Gojou's hina dolls are "a bit different" and then not even showing them. I thought all the teasing and lead-in was going to reveal that he made slightly more stylish dolls based on Marin but we don't even get to see what it actually is.

Still happy that it got something that's kind of like an ending and I hope the epilogue delivers.

That's it? THAT'S HOW IT ENDS???? Just as we got a SLIVER, no, CRUMB, of cute couple moments the manga ends like this? This kind of development tends to only happen when mangas get axed, but this was a fairly popular series, no? Even if it is health issues like how others are speculating, I can't imagine anyone wanting to end their work like this, just as it was reaching it's peak.

I was expecting cosplay hina dolls! Or SOMETHING. But not even seeing a photo of these supposedly different dolls felt like a cop-out.

I feel like this is more of just a way for the author to at least make sure it has some sort of ending, most of the larger loose ends will be tied in the epilogue and side stories, I believe the epilogue will either show us more about their life as a couple, or the repercussions of the Haniel Cosplay, with the side stories focusing on what happened to the other characters.

Extremely unexpected and abrupt ending. I can't believe it ended just like that? 😭 I hope the mangaka is doing okay. I'm looking forward to the epilogue but... I'm pretty underwhelmed.
