I initially appreciated the first few storylines. They were well-written, featured intriguing characters, and had an engaging plot. However, as the arcs progressed, their quality began to decline. Instead of smoothly flowing into one another, they started to feel more like disconnected standalone episodes, deviating from the coherent narrative structure of a cohesive novel. It seemed that the author's enthusiasm waned, and they experimented with new ideas. By the final arc, it became apparent that the author had lost interest and prioritized telling a standalone story they found enjoyable, even if it didn't fit within the original context. The rushed ending, consisting of just half a chapter, served as a summary rather than a satisfying conclusion to a story that had once captivated me. It's disheartening to see such a decline after the initial excitement of the first few parts.
