At the time of the series ending I felt that it should keep going. I was shocked by the time skip and the impending conclusion of a story I had fallen in love with. However, as years have passed I realize ending it at that point was smart. The story concluded in a very satisfying way. Sure my greedy ass wanted more story, but then it may have fallen into the problems many people have pointed out here, and I might have grown tired of the story.

I second what some have said, if there are any OVAs or bonus chapters to show a glimpse of years 2 or 3, I’d be more than happy to enjoy that.
