Endings that Have Let You Down - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

The endings to any form of medium, such as books, comics, movies, or games, that have ultimately been let downs. A list of the few of mine:

Hellsing (Manga Version) -
Spoiler Below

Beginning around the time Anderson uses the Nail of Helena. Alucard and Anderson are about to have their last fight, with Alucard fully expecting (and anticipating) dying, seeing as how he's finally found a human as worthy as Abraham van Hellsing (in this case, Anderson) to finally kill him. Thing is, Anderson thinks he needs to be stronger than he is to kill Alucard, so he uses an item known as the Nail of Helena to turn himself into a "Monster of God". Since he's now a monster and not a human, he's incapable of killing Alucard, depressing Alucard and forcing him to kill him. Then Walter shows up as a new version of false vampire, having turned out to be a traitor. Alucard dominates most of the fight, but is killed when sucking in the blood around the city into himself, as Schrodinger, a catboy Nazi who is more or less omnipresent, kills himself and allows his blood to flow into Alucard. This causes a paradox, as Schrodinger doesn't recognize himself when assumed into Alucard, and this causes Alucard to be erased from existance.

The story then moves on to two duels, one between Seras and the Captain, the other between Integra and the Major, and honestly, this was one of the better parts of the series. I didn't start to get truly upset again until the lackluster final chapter, which takes place about 30 years later, though it didn't irk me as much as the "Anderson vs. Alucard" final battle and the "Walter is a traitor" twist.

Oddly, that's all I can remember for now, though I'm sure I'll think of more later.
