Not even Deneb dressed up in all his Station Master merch? That's the main thing about this story!

I don't think praising Shouko's character is being intolerant to another character? Please don't read too much into what I'm saying! If I'm paying a compliment to one character or performer, I am not insulting another one by omission. Something can be good without something else being bad!

I didn't mean it was literally lacking something, like a conclusion. I was more referring to 44 feeling true to the characters and emotionally relatable in a way that 43 wasn't. To me, 44 was easy to enjoy in a way that 43 wasn't.
