I honestly think I'm done with the Crystal Saga. It's been six years. Six long years. I was actually pretty satisfied with the story right at the last Crystal Stone chapter--"The End of the World". TEotW was, admittedly, my point of desparation. I mean, what else could I have done with these characters after 150+ episodes? They've gone all over the place, and faced many villains. I wanted to end it, but how could I end something that was very close to me? It only seemed right to end the world...with everyone dead. I really couldn't think of any other sort of closure for these characters. Hell, they're all only around 15-16 years old. Who are they going to return their Crystal Stones to? Their mentors were dead. Crystal Caves? The readers must've forgotten about that--it was only mentioned in the first chapter. I can't even recall how many "Power of the Crystal Stone...transform me!" I've typed up....so after ending the world, I tried to keep it going with "Magna Crystals"...since the past years were more villain-oriented, I was planning on making these characters expand more, and become more real. They were going to face problems every teenager will probably face. (Drinking, drugs, depression, cutting, phases in attitudes, relationships, etc) But it all seems so unreal after what happened only months ago. So with the message, "Peace out", I leave the Crystal Saga behind. Peace out. ;)
