Did someone else wrote the finale?

Man, I never thought I'd be this disappointed, but this finale was a bigger letdown than Dexter: New Blood's mess. Seriously, they took the excitement and hype from the whole season and flushed it down the drain. What a waste.

The episode was just plain boring from start to finish. Mizu, our supposed badass samurai, was so weak it's almost laughable. I get it, she didn't have her sword, but come on, they could've at least made the fights interesting. And don't even get me started on how guns suddenly became these super-powered weapons. It was just lazy writing.

Instead of wrapping things up nicely, they left us hanging with more questions than answers. What happened to all those side characters? And what about the bigger picture stuff? It's like they didn't even bother to tie up loose ends.

Now they're talking about a second season, and I'm not sure how to feel about it but one thing's for sure, it's going to take a lot to fix all this.
