As you know, I deeply enjoyed the first 30-or-so episodes of Ninninger. But when I got to the last 12-15 episodes, it became glaringly obvious that Shimoyama had zero clue how he was going to wrap up the show. And that palpable uncertainty lead to one of the most unsatisfying, paint-by-numbers finale arcs in a Sentai since the 80s.
Here's what happens when you don't structure a longform story: you get to the end, and you find that you haven't laid out all of the beats necessary to make the audience feel the emotional crescendo of the finale. You also find yourself with all of these dangling plot threads you don't have the time or space to tie off. While you may have successfully spun plots on a granular level for majority of the show, the ending comes off as limp and unsatisfying because you weren't thinking about the big picture.
Well clearly you've got a well thought out perspective on this so what I'm about to say is more "agree to disagree" than "zOmg yur WRONG". I thought Ninninger's last half dozen or so episodes were great (you could easily argue the stuff just before with Mangetsu is simply there to fill a couple extra episodes, admittedly) and totally felt like an "emotional crescendo". It was pretty much the exact opposite of limp and unsatisfying to me. Twice even. Maybe the "paint by numbers" aspect of it bothers me less because I haven't seen that much Sentai? At any rate, I feel they wrapped up far more things successfully than unsuccessfully.
