Since it acts as the climax of a massive arc that serves as a ramp for the continuation of the journey, the ending suffers from the lack of a closed resolution. The events of Abashiri lead directly into the characters' next steps, leaving casual viewers with an awkward feeling of an abrupt cut. In short, it is one of the best and most courageous recent live-action anime adaptations, ideal for anyone looking for non-stop action with a strong respect for history and culture.
