 Why Stranger Things Finale Was Underwhelming

By: Sachi Dixit

After years of hype, theories, and dedication, the Stranger Things finale left many fans

disappointed, including me. I’m not saying it was extremely bad, but it just wasn’t the

strongest ending, as everything just felt too perfect and easy.

For example, the final battle between the main characters and Vecna was barely 10

minutes long, which felt rushed after seasons of buildup. The fight ended too quickly,

making the villain seem less powerful than he did before. After everything the characters

went through, this final battle should have been more meaningful, instead of being

incredibly easy to win.

Another issue was that there were very few real consequences. Most of the main

characters survived, and everything wrapped up too perfectly. This made the danger feel

less and didn’t make the ending as emotional. Everything was played too safely; instead

of shocking the audience, the plot was easy to follow, which was strange since in

previous seasons this was never the case.

Overall, I still love this show, and I appreciate everything it gave us over the years,

from awesome characters to iconic moments. Even though the finale wasn’t as powerful

as I hoped, this show will always have a special place in my heart.
