"Arang and the Magistrate" vs "Harry Potter"

So it ended
I can't accept it
Oh what am I supposed to do every Wed/Thu now
ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

As the title of this post suggests
I'm gonna compared AATM with Harry Potter
^^

Firstly, just like HP
AATM is full of mysteries and unknowns
And gradually answers are revealed one by one
Every little details contribute to the big mystery
This makes both HP and AATM very addictive
You can't stop once started reading/watching
You don't mind even re-reading/watching
again and again

Secondly, like how i used to read HP last time
I'd read the Chinese translated book first
before reading the English one
For AATM, I watched raw first, then with sub
Some reason: my proficiency in Chinese is more promising XD

Thirdly, the ending style for both HP and AATM
is too similar
At the very end when they are about to be "finished"
they suddenly become very smart
and solved all mysteries by themselves
in a split second
Questions are answered too abruptly
It's as if the writers are too exhausted
and just want to end the story fast
