That was the reason because I never started it. I dislike Tearjerkers without Happy End. And when a story ever cried "Drama" then it was this one.

I just hope Faith won't go this way but as you pointed it is going Fushigi Yuugi. The Mangaka isn't known for her Happy Endings *sigh*. I think ES has to return.

I don't mind unhappy endings (I loved both IRIS and Hong Gil Dong) but they have to have a reason. This is all blah.

At least nobody is dying in Faith...

Reasons are in the eyes of the beholders. I'm sure a lot of viewers would say it made sense indeed.
As I said, I still don't like unhappy endings even when it makes sense. Real Life is delusional enough, in my dream world no one who is dear to me dies or is left alone without hope :P.

Yet! I like that the bad guys aren't black/white and I can kinda like them. But every time I like the bad ones it ends bad. So I keep my fingers crossed and hope the writers aren't that into Fushigi Yuugi.

Its not unhappy ending at all, but I think mousie dislikes how the story was resolved. like how Shunji dies for example. didnt ring true to her. and also the ending is very nationalistic etc etc.

Yup. I don't think it's a 'rocks fall everyone dies' ending a la Hong Gil Dong, IRIS, A Love to Kill, MISA, Tree with Deep Roots (though I suppose that one is arguable), Bichunmoo, The Myth and a score of other dramas that ended in a truly horrifying 'everyone suffers and dies' manner, and yet which I either liked or adored.

I just don't like the way we got there at all.
