It's featured on Toonami Jetstream, CN's online offering.
Sil80, Spoiler:
EDIT: And yes, that 75-minute special is the right one. But don't count on it giving you a more conclusive ending -- in fact, it's an even worse stopping point than Ep 75. |

I remember downloading a set of the episodes, and then deleting them to make room for new episodes on my old 20 GB hard drive computer. I never got to finish the series, got to about 57 if I remember correctly. I loved this show. I want to download/buy the rest of it.
I liked the atmosphere of the show most of all. |

Dunno why they didn't take it right to the end, but I heard that the japanese fan community had a general consensus that the manga ended in a bad place, which may have been a midigating factor. |

I believe it has to do with people liking their series to end on a high note. The manga doesn't really do that, so it really feels incomplete when you read it if that's the style of manga you're used to reading.
There is apparently 2 "special chapters" that came out after the end of the manga (which I just found out about). I think it does better as an ending. Wouldn't animate too well I don't think though, just because it's so short, and it's timeskip.
