Incoherency about drama

I'll get to replies. Sorry, been busy now which is why less replying and posting :)

But anyway. I have cheated and watched the end of Taiyou No Kisetsu

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!! Why??????? Have they been gorging on kdramas what why argh stab am incoherent. AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHH.

I still love the drama and I see how it works in context actually if I want to, but...



The hell. Everything got sort of sorted out and then Tatsuya's ex (the one he seduced as revenge) tries to stab him and Eiko tries to stop it and in trying to cross the road to him gets hit by a truck.

Huh?

I knew she was going to die at the end (with VOs the way they were, it was no shock) but this is the most random thing ever, like one of those kdramas where it's out of nowhere just for angst.

I am not seething or anything because I can see they wanted to do a theme: Tatsuya's wrong-doing caught up with him. After wrecking Shinji he shouldn't ride off into the sunset. In fact, there is a symmetry: Tatsuya set out to seduce the girl (blanking on name) to take the most important thing in Shinji's life (his fiancee) away from him. And so it's sort of karma that his actions resulted in his losing the most important thing to himself: Eiko.

Except:

1. Tatsuya already felt so horrible earlier he tried to kill himself. So he is hardly 'lalalalala everything worked out for me, see ya suckers' and

2. Ummmm. Breaking a couple up (and sorry, if the fiancee really loved Shinji like Shinji loved her, it wouldn't have worked. If Mr. Mousie's friend tries tactics like that all that would have happened is me telling the friend off and telling Mr. Mousie about the louse his buddy is) is not the same order of magnitude as losing that most important to you person permanently to the grave. Theoretically, if Shinji and the girl wanted to hook up again, they could. And in any event, they weren't in mutual love blah blah.

So yeah, I see where they were going with it but

BUT

I can't take it. My poor little shipper's heart.

Ooooooooh. *wails*

Tatsuya. Eiko. Dammit.
