    I just found this out and had to share:

    The Charm of Soul Pets had a really sad ending. I won't describe it, but it was very depressing but author was very satisfied with it. Actually one of that author's friends who was a writer himself (writer of
    Versatile Mage) came to his house as a guest and when he (COSP author) went out for shopping, hacked his PC and threatened screw up his author account unless he didn't write a alternate ending.

    Seeing his author friend's behaviour, he realized that his fans must be pissed and so CoSP author decided to write a new ending which was more hopeful.

    If that isn't true friend, then I don't know what it is.

    Not everyone like a happy ending, but more people do if this wasn't the Disney would not be where it is today by retelling old and dark fairy tales.

    The novel has a good focus on the MC's character, you sympathize with him and so that ending is a double punch in the gut.

    Doesn't mean it isn't a good ending. The opposite, if anything.

    The ending was good, why should the author change it?
    I mean, the fans are raging because their fantasy isn't real, not because the ending was bad ( Plot-wise ).

    And here I am longing for a good ending and not a rushed one.

    I never said it was a bad ending. It was gut-wrenching, but certainly epic as hell. Beseech the Devil's ending was amazing, but ISSTH retconned it.

    I mean the fans are raging because of the Author's choice of ending, and that choice is not a bad one.
    Basically, the fans are selfish.

    Also, why did you link your post that links to the reddit spoiler in the OP instead of directly link to the reddit? :hmm:

    So a Loop ending? Seem like a good ending.
    Sadly I couldn't empathy with you guys for this ending. One of the reasons is that some of my stories follow this type of ending, I couldn't be sad about it since I also wrote this type of ending, I like to write sad to bittersweet ending and still haven't written a Happy one. Another is that Kagerou Days song, 2 kids trying to save the other from dying with same loop for the other.
