And that is the end of this show. I think the show ended up fine, if a bit forgettable. I think the highlights of this first season are some of the characters. Rose in particular is really the character that makes this series. If they hadn't done a good job depicting her, then the whole show would have fallen flat. I think one of the big drawbacks of this season was that the pace was pretty slow. If you weren't connecting with the characters, then this show would have been extremely dull since a huge portion of it was dialog.
Going forward, I am not sure I would be jumping at a season 2. From what I have read of the manga, this opening arc was the highlight for me. The journey that Usato sets out on carrying these letters fell really flat by comparison for me. I am not sure how much farther into the story a hypothetical season 2 would go, but this journey is a long one and I ended up dropping the manga before he reached the beast kingdom.
The rose and usato character dynamic is definitely the best part of the series imo. Specially in this episode.
