I remember when I first finished reading Scott Pilgrim, flipping over to that final set of pages. I sat there not inspecting the complex writing of emotions or studying the art and it's simple but meaningful purpose. No, I was tearing up like crazy and just wondering how something this beautiful could be printed onto a set of pages. I didn't get that same feeling from this ending but at the same time, it felt different in a very good way. This final episode took every little detail, every throw away line and packed it into a damn near perfect conclusion. The final battle is meant to show us just how far a simple misunderstanding can go (in the most Scott Pilgrim way of course.) From the battle on, we get a perfect scene between the characters we've rooted for this entire time and can I just say how much this little scene does. It not only concludes the time machine plot, but it also moves both of our love birds forward into there new life. They don't know what will happen from this point on, we don't know either. However, that's the beauty of interpretation and thus, the beauty of this ending.
Pretty close to it anyway.
I loved the original comic book run and thought the movie got the tone pretty spot-on for the most part. I had so much fun with that movie that I don't at all mind the changes too much. I had different reasons for loving both of them.
And now I love this format of Scott Pilgrim too for different reasons!
Such a good ending. While I always kind of loved the ending to the comics, this is also a really satisfying way to end things. I had a blast in the final confrontation, I laughed out loud at times, and REALLY dug the sound choices, and I'm very content with where everyone ends up. I know a second season isn't likely, but I wouldn't mind it I guess!
This was a great series. I think it took a few episodes to get going, and I still wish we somehow had more screen time with certain characters from the comics (Envy Adams to name one), but the characterization of everyone here is so good and believable that I don't really care too much.
Highly recommended if you like anything Scott Pilgrim-related.
