Can We Talk About That Ending?! ?

I genuinely have mixed feelings about Lost to You. I loved the emotional journey and the characters, but that ending left me frustrated, confused, and honestly a pissed off. 😭

After 11 episodes of buildup, Episode 12 ends with Zhan finding Xu while meteors are falling, they look at each other, and then... THE END?! 😭💀 What are we actually supposed to conclude from that? Did they survive? Did they make it off the island? What happened after the meteor shower? Did Zhan's father return for them? We don't know!

And then there are all the other unanswered questions: Where was the first brother? What exactly happened to him? Who was the Yakuza guy who attacked the noodle shop? What was the father's full backstory? So many things were introduced but never properly explained.

I don't mind an open ending when there are enough clues to interpret what happened, but this felt more like the story just stopped. 😭

So I'm curious: How did you interpret the ending? Do you think Zhan and Xu survived? And what do you think happened with all those unanswered storylines?

Because I need to know if I'm the only one sitting here thinking, "GaGaOOLala... what the bloody hell was that?!" 😭💀

Genuinely so many things left unexplained, which I didn't really mind, but that ENDING?????

That Yakuza guy confused me so badly lmao, we just randomly see him in a scene basically butt-naked and that was it.

But I hated that ending arghhhhh, I don't mind that we were suddenly sprung with the whole comet thing, but that ending was just not it. Wdym they smiled at each other a whole cliff apart and the comets were raining down behind them? They're probably most likely dead is my interpretation .. but at least get them together before that TT

Also the whole point of XuYuan going to that cliff is so he can 'change their destinies' or something, I feel like that point is kinda defeated by the fact that now both of them are pretty much dead either by the comet crash or the tsunami that follows .. If they both died, it might actually be poetic, live together and die together. But now we don't even know what happened to them, besides there was a pretty big chance of Zhan getting treated if he went back with his father, so there was no need for this melodramatic stuff.

Additionally, I wouldn't have even minded if they made Zhan go back and recover, and Xu died from the cliff making his wish. Even that would've been poetic, albeit a bit cliched and just downright depressing. But at least it's a logical ending, one that I would've enjoyed much more than this open-ended nonsense even if I would've cried my heart out.

Honestly, I wanna say they both live. It's a possibility. Those comments were really far away so they didn't get hit, the dad accepted everyone being gay so he'll let them be together and then when the younger son goes to get surgery his love will be with him and he'll have the desire to live and the surgery will be a success! IDK, I just want to put it out there that it is a possible outcome.
