    Endings can kinda get to me. Not the end of a show necessarily, but the end of a story. It often happens at the end of a show, but not always. The best example that comes to mind is actually a video game called Season letters to Tomorrow (or something like that). Without spoilers you leave your home and it’s as sad as it is uplifting, and then you document the last day of a town before it’s destroyed. There are other endings that you get to document too, big and small, and all of them are framed as emotionally complex.

    I think I’m just a nostalgic person, because ancient ruins and stories in that context also get me. Girls front line was sad long before the ending! Maybe it’s because i was born in the late 90s and i saw the world getting better before it started getting worse.
