They could have at least made it a year long series and did a few more arcs & ended on a strong one. Original endings are rarely handled well in my opinion & this one doesn't sound like an exception.

Indeed, that's the key difference - Ao no Exorcist didn't have enough material for a significantly longer run. Magi has plenty. It's just strange - I can't see any way this show isn't profitable with the amount of merch they sell and a likely floor of 10k BD/DVD per volume if they followed the manga (and maybe quite a bit more).
