Sometimes it's hard to tell when a series is over. For example, by the end of the second season of Tsubasa Chronicle, the good guys still hadn't had a showdown with the bad guys, Sakura hadn't recovered all her feathers, and Kurogane hadn't killed Mokona. How was I supposed to know it wasn't the end? It's a good thing the writers assumed I was too stupid to figure it out and had the characters explicitly tell me.

Looks like the good guys think their journey is far from over, but do the bad guys agree?

But it's the last episode of the season! Surely the preview segment would tell us what's going on:
