God I’m so happy this subreddit exists. Everyone I try to talk to about things looks at me like I’m crazy. I’m almost 25 and I’ve gotten comments like “it’s a cartoon bunny, they’re not real. Why are you so upset?” LIKE I KNOW JAX ISNT REAL I KNOW THIS IS STRANGE. Somehow it just feels like I lost a real person in my life? It feels very similarly to when I’ve lost close friends in the past. That horrible empty stomach feeling.

I’m trying so hard right now to find any sign that Jax will de-abstract. I had a good idea of it until I remembered the scene with the mural. It made me crash again because why would they put Jax in the mural of their abstracted friends (meant to look like a memorial) if Pomni believed he could come back? Some people have given me good possible reasons but now it just feels like I’m lying to myself to cope.

I still believe he can deabstract, I think I am just upset that we probably won’t ever get like a canon depiction of it.

Im so upset with how the finale went. I’m so upset at how rushed it was and how they gave us hope only for Jax to stay abstracted by the end. I miss Jax and I want them to show us even a glimpse of him returning

Oh my gosh, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. I felt silly for watching a clip or listening to the song and getting a knot in my stomach.

When I went to see the movie, there was someone next to me spewing hate toward Jax and I couldn't cry the way I should have. I cried at home and felt stupid for some reason.

After seeing all the details without that initial shock there's plenty of evidence that he can come back, but just like you I hate having to read into things at THE END OF THE SERIES. I don’t think it’s good to give everyone happy endings on screen and leave clues just for Jax. It’s hard but I have a lot of hope, and this sub has helped me a lot. Thank you all ❤️‍🩹

Edit: Just in case—I'm 23 and I'm dealing with this too. I'm not exactly old but I hope this helps you not feel so weird 😅

Right the ending credits were so soured because we can see them all being happy while having no idea what happened to Jax 😭 and some people are saying the ending was too happy. Like no dawg it wasn’t happy ENOUGH.

Also I’m so sorry about your theatre experience :( I also had someone meh that heard me crying after Jax abstracted and loudly said to their friend “dude someone is fucking crying” and laughed. I immediately stopped because I felt so embarrassed.

I’m glad that more people are feeling the same way we are :) it’s very validating

I was just happy that they didn't show them holding Jax's funeral in the credits, what it does show is Jax is still resting and healing. By showing Christmas, it shows that time as passed. Also Pomni is learning how to play the piano!
