I watched the series Eden of the East a few years back. 11 eps but a great show. Always stuck with me. It has great closure with the arcs told within and is self contained but theres a larger arc left unresolved that was tied up with 2 feature length films.

For whatever reason i never got around to them. Watched the first yesterday...nothing happens. At all. Nothing is progressed or revealed. Truly poorly written. This is from the guy who did ghost in the shell so bad writing is the last thing you expect.

Watching the 2nd film now. 20 min in and nothing has happened but im optinistic everything gets wrapped up...but its begining to feel like an OVA the same way the 1st film did...which is not what i was looking for...

Its possible the films were meant to wrap things up and a 2nd 11 ep run was meant to but never happened? I dunno...speculating.
