Just to try to redirect the conversation a bit, given the setup in Episode 11, how did people want Episode 12 to play out?
It seems to me -- albeit naively -- that the ending we see here is pretty on-par with the setup and the way the rest of the season played out... but I'm not sure what people were expecting. I wonder if some of the "rage" about this episode is more pent-up rage about the entire season or anime franchise, and less about the actual episode itself... but maybe I'm wrong. That's why I'm curious about what people expected to happen based on last week's setup.
