@DrJamesFox I maintain that YoruKura had a perfectly good ending that closed all of its narrative threads even if I'm also disappointed they didn't get together. Meanwhile, the issue with Wonder Egg was in all likelihood less the competency of its writers and more its notoriously poor production schedule (in contrast to MayoPunch which was, according to P.A Works, fully complete before it aired).
Really though, disregarding that, you're working from a sample size of two that don't really have much in common in terms of staff or even genre; all thats been said is that its possible for things to jump the shark, which is, well, I assume everybody already knows that.
Historically, most of the mediums best shows have been originals, and they definitely tend to have a much higher cieling. Eva, Utena, Flip Flappers, Shirobako, YoriMoi, MyGo, Lain, Code Geass, Witch From Mercury, Gundam/Macross in general, etc. If anything, its adaptations that lend themselves towards unsatisfying endings because they typically have a stopping point midway through rather than contain the "full" story.
Also this shows been cool so far, genuinely quite well-written and funny.
