What do you think about omnibus format in anime (especially in romance stories)?
I honestly liked the idea in Amagami and Photo Kano, because in that way there are alternative universes and every fan can choose his/her own one, and there are no wars about this or that character who allegedly should have won the right to stay with the main character. Everybody can choose the arc where the girl the viewer wants to end up with the main character, DOES actually end up with the main character, and the other arcs can just be ignored or considered not being part of the "personal canon" because every arc is organized in such a way as if the other arcs didn't happen. So everyone is happy with their own ending and no flaming fan wars.
So I am kind of surprised and disappointed the omnibus format didn't become more popular and used in more anime series. I thought it was a good solution to satisfy all fans of a series, not just a part.
