Au Revoir is not an Adieu

Well, okay, in term of the series itself, Au Revoir was the adieu. And in 7 months, I've given it a lot of thoughts, and I still have some (minor) issues with it, but I keep seeing those very negative comments about it here and there (mostly reaching my Twitter feed via Tumblr), and the more it goes, the more I feel like I need to defend it.

No, it wasn't a bad ending. No, the ending didn't ruin the entire series. And no, it didn't kill the bromance.

( Of course it's a long ramble. What did you expect? )
