It was abrupt but at the same time it seemed the story was at an end. Shimura didn't seem to think there was anything left to say. Could it have gone on longer? It definitely could have and I think the story might have been better off if all the subplots were wrapped up in three volumes rather than the last chapter. But in the end if the author doesn't want to write you can't force them to.

That being said the last chapter had a lot of great moments and reminded me why I love them all. I'll miss them all.

Now if only Fantagraphics would up their production schedule as at their going rate it'll be ten years or more before they get to the end provided they ever do.
The worst part is that every volume seems to arrive six months to a year late. (Judging by the dates posted on Amazon.)
