I was going to collect the whole thing over a number of Christmas breaks, but with this ending I'll be cutting the collection short this year and pretending this finale didn't happen.

I don’t think they ever plan on continuing the future portion of the story. I don’t think it’s a downer ending either. They spent 40 years growing older together after the present day stuff, got displaced for 10 years and then that final page of Mike and Toid leaving with Renet was a very positive note. No doubt they’ll successfully bring everyone back.
It’s hard to do a finale for a series like this. The show had them kill Dregg and Splinter acknowledging them as equals. Very good finale, but I can’t imagine the adventures ever stopped.
So the message of never giving up was a good one. The Last Ronin connection was kind of eye-roll inducing, but at least they didn’t kill them all off lol.

Overall, it was a good series but I really didn't like it tried to plug the gaps in between the first seven years and red sky. I could have done without all that.

That was my initial problem with the series. There is no gap there. There’s maybe 24 hours between “Shredder Triumphant” and “Get Shredder”.
