Roller Coaster Episode 8

That was the ending?

I really did not have any expectations when I started watching Roller Coaster. The only thing I could guess, from the poster, was that it looked like a love triangle. I binged this series in just a few days, not because it was the greatest, but I was just curious to see how it will all "blow up in the end" for all of them, especially Air. It was incredibly selfish to string along both Lamp and Pure for all those years. Yes, familial obligations are real, no joke but do not do half-relationships for both parties (esp. using Lamp's family's money) - that was incredibly unfair to them. For ep 8, I agree with another reviewer. The break-up was also absolutely unnecessary because everything before it, Pure said she would not break Loft's heart. Yes, Pure felt "guilty" (having "moved" on from Air) but she should not have. Air kept telling her not to wait for her, and Pure met someone who made her truly happy, finally, and gave her the attention and love she deserved. The ending was confusing to me, I just could not wrap my head around it. I am not a fan of quick (wrap) endings, they feel like such an afterthought, and they feel like they are cheating the audience, ones who have invested time and energy into the series.
