What I loved and hated was that it didn't try to really wrap up the plot. It finished this arc, this story, and just ended there. It did not try to tie up loose ends, left them dangling for readers to speculate on. In fact, the last chapter added a NEW loose end, if anything.

I'm, honestly, fine with that. Wrapping things up with an rapid-fire push to the ending doesn't work. It hurts the ending and the series overall.

Now it ends with a "What's next" moment, letting us guess where Beethoven & Yaso will go next.

I'm fine with that, even as I'm disappointed that it's over.

So, Star of Beethoven ended this week. The series, for those who didn't know, is based on the premise that the literal Beethoven is randomly resurrected in Japan and has some adventures meeting with a Japanese pianist who happens to speak German.

Both Beethoven and Yaso have interesting plot development including Yaso growing as an artist, Beethoven meeting those who actually were involved in his resurrection (and restoration of hearing), Yaso entering a music school and the introduction of a rival, etc.

It was well done. I was enjoying the aggressive Shonen interpretation of a music manga. It also introduced a bunch of plot points and then...just ended with Yaso & Beethoven on stage.
