Here's a thread for manga or anime that you've consumed that left you feeling unsatisfied or downright offended after the ending. Please remember your spoiler tags.
I know I'm super late on this but someone recently recommended I read Mirai Nikki so I did them a solid and read it over the course of a few hours. Despite having some interesting moments and some genuinely cool plot points I just felt disgusted by the end of it and once I was finished my opinion of it had been thoroughly soured. My main issues were: inconsistent characterization across the board, A horrifically stupid sequence of fakeouts and reveals that led to nothing and pretty much everything about the main character. I'll focus my attention on that last point for the purposes of having a decent main post. Spoilers ahead.
So this guy, Amano, is the main character pretty much by complete happenstance. He's the favorite to win the game being played for pretty much no reason. He gets pushed along by pretty much every character, antagonist or protagonist alike, as they desperately try to get him to do something, ANYTHING that would actually help him achieve some kind of goal in his life. Every decision he makes seems to be based on a new motivation he just came up with on the spot, regularly flip flopping between "Save everyone!", "Save my friends!", "Save my parents!", "Save Yuno!", or even just "I wanna fuck Yuno!". He only achieves this last goal, by the way.
This clown Breaks every promise he made during the course of this shit show and manages to get his entire universe destroyed after murdering his own friends and having his Yandere Waifu™ kill herself so he could become a god. Now, this would almost be a good ending to have him have to sit there eternally and think about how his passivity and wishy washiness ended up ruining literally everything, but the author had to inject something of a "Good End" into the very last bit.
This good end completely invalidates one of the only actually good things the MC managed to achieve, creating a happy future for the alternate reality version of his Yandere Waifu™ so she could live without becoming a psycho murderer who only thinks aboutPost too long.
