I mean, that's a choice if you want to hate life for a while. Angel Beats is absolutely depressing, for more reasons than one. It's theonly show of which I'm aware that had a cour cut during its broadcast window (i.e., while it was airing, the second cour was cut; this destroyed the pacing). But that aside, the story itself is indeed sad.

Now I'm really curious. I'm going in completely blind then. I think I'll start the first episode tomorrow morning.

I should clarify. The show is good. It's just sad.
