I feel as if the series should've ended when

Well, after following Vampire Knight since 2008--getting out of touch with it, forgetting about it, not wanting to continue my involvement with its slow-as-molasses-angsty-world-of-Vampire-Knight, I have finally finally finished it and can put it to rest in my complete list.

I don't really have any words of hatred for any of it. No complaints, no spite, no grudges, no harsh words to inflict upon fans or start up an unnecessary argument or arguments. Maybe it's because I'm tired. It's been a long arduous journey reading VK and I bet Matsuri Hino-san has had it rougher. For me, I probably view VK in this light because I was hiding from it for so long, not wanting to face the direction it was going--not feeling comfortable with its new developments. I don't really have much to say for the manga as a whole. I have forgotten my earlier--more strong feelings about the manga and its characters after running away from it and refusing to continue it until now.

MMM...I feel like it has certainly been a crazy ride from what I vaguely remember from it in the past. Reading the rest from where I had left off has been a ride too fast for me to feel much of anything but confusion and bits of a jumbled mess of bittersweet melancholy and many questions I don't know how to form.

I wish it didn't have to end to fast--not that I wanted it to span forever--just enough so things could be wrapped up neatly and explained in the way Matsuri-sensei probably couldn't with the way things were going (I heard that she had to end it because VK began to get low sales and she had no other choice). The ending was a thinker. I had trouble wrapping my mind around the idea of it. It was a bit much for me to handle and I was sad that at long last, it had ended like that. Still, it was probably the best she could do with what she had.

In my heart forever, Zero...< 33...

At first I was unsatisfied, but after reading the whole series again, it made me really believe it was the best- yet bittersweet- ending. One of my all time favorites! I'm just sad to see it end after all these years.

I hate Vampire Knight, but I also really love it. In the end, I felt as though that was the best way it could have gone. It was a bittersweet closer.

Ahhh, I'm just a little bit sad, ya know?

When I first started reading this manga, I loved it. The anime was just as good, but after a while I dropped it and didn't read it for ages. After 2 years I came back and decided to continue reading it, I'm glad I did. The ending was sort of how I pictured it to be and I am satisfied with it.

although it really did take time for me to finish this manga, over all I like it. The story seemed to go anywhere, but I like the ending eventhough it's not as wonderful as the beginning.

Most of thing have been already said, so I'll just add that if Hino-sensei wanted to please everyone, she should have done 2 or 3 endings: one with living happy with Kaname, one with dying with Kaname or dying in his place, and last one, Kaname dying and Zeki lovu lovu.
What shocked me the MOST in the last chapter was

When I read it, it was written on the first page that the team was so pissed they weren't able to translate it so a One Piece team made the translation.

VK used to be my favorite manga. I actually started reading it when the very first chapter came out and followed it religiously until the end. And now Hino throws this convulted idiocy at me and calls it the end? I'm so mad right now I could spit flames.
