It was just the anti-climactic nature of it that disappointed me a bit.
Mind you, I'd say there's a big difference between seeing someone casually on occasion and being limited to texting and phone calls for a long period of time. And some people really DO prefer to take things like relationships more slowly, which is perfectly fine. But as you said. With all the drama they had, the conclusion was ultimately way to anti-climatic.

I guess my problem is that I'm neutral to cute/awkward couples, and somewhat cynical


I don't know. I can find somewhat awkward couples cute. But Hanasaku Iroha never seemed to go beyond *Ko/Ohana are cute together*, despite how much drama surrounded the relationship.
