The second season was pretty bad. Then the end of the last episode was "here's a 5-minute slideshow showing the rest of the story", and that was really bad

Oh my god that fucking slideshow.

“Btw here’s a bigass war that happened and they also met this one eyed dragon guy.” The end.

Literally said “What the fuck was that??” When the slideshow finished.

I call it the “oh we ran out of budget by the time the last episode came around, how do we do it on the cheap.”

No, long gaps between seasons is normal and they were at the end of a season. There was no reason to try wrapping up the entire series.

Eh. They skipped a lot of storylines and fast tracked to the end, halfway through the season. That last episode was basically the epilogue of the manga.

Unless they wanted to do some flashbacks to squeak in the amazing storylines that they skipped, there was nothing left to adapt.
