Great Pretender was a very fun experience, and despite I was getting a bit sick that the story never took a serious turn without being a big bait in the end, I still enjoyed the hell out of it, especially Laurent and Cynthia’s backstories.
I mean, the finale seemed to close on Makoto’s character pretty decently? As far as I recall, he shouldn’t have any more business as a con artist, right? I just hope the new season/movie/special (hopefully not recap) doesn’t try to force characters into their old ways 'a la Despicable Me 3; but it is WIT, so I think I trust them to handle the characters well.
Assuming you are talking about Kaiba, yeah… The final episodes butchered a bit of the atmosphere that was built initially.
