| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Really nice ending hopefully there is a second season but for now i guess i will start reading the manga seeing as is it still ongoing.  |
| Simply beautiful. ;_; Can't believe it's over already.. |
| Great, sweet episode. I liked how they used "Kanashimi Shirankao" as an insert song in the middle of the episode. At the end where Fumi starts crying when she remembers Aa-chan was her first love.. it made me want to cry a bit. I was hoping she'd tell Aa-chan like she did in the manga but oh well.. it was still a nice scene. Aww ;_; I loved this anime so much, you don't even know. 10/10 for me. I'm actually genuinely sad that its over but at least the manga is still going. *applause* ps: I can't wait til the OST comes out. |

| Ponytail... Fumi needs to wear her hair like that more often... I am totally in support of the Shinobu x Mogi relationship though. It was a dainty anime; glad to see those sweet blue flowers in the brief flashback though. |

| Very sweet. So everyone goes back to their everyday living. I can only hope for another season. Where can I get a hold of the manga for this? |
| Great, It was awesome and moving. Extremely sweet. I'll get to the point, Ko is the sex; Shinobu as well, but not that much. Anyways it was great to notice the emotional growth of Fumi, it was quite splendid to put it on words, many people wouldn't notice this if it weren't for that last episode where Fumi confronts Yasuko. To be honest I still can't find the reason of why Yasuko is leaving the country, shes runing away from all that she loved once and It will be probably more easier for her to face it all straightforward. But wait, that's just a contradiction, or at least I see it that way. But leaving behind a past is definetly not the best answer. She should have stayed even if it means to carry all that emotional weight on her shoulders. Anyway I just simply don't understand whats Aa-chan role in all of this, she was just there as a shoulder for Fumi, not someone to rely on but a pilar of growth. This is probably a conclusion I'm coming to but, for me, this looked mostly like a Fumi Arc, where we get to understand all the hardships she passed through so we can empathize with her in the next coming season (?), that's if, theres another one. And why not? I mean... Wheres Akira's development? Not just that, what about Kyouko and my beloved Kou? Fucking christ those JC Staff bastards better give me a Kou arc before I get a nerdrage. Certainly I would like to preserve this show as it is, an emotional portrait of art with a lot of significance behind every character's action, they didn't waste a single movement on any of the episodes, unlike most of the shows where they just don't justify their actions and jump out to a conclusion. And finally I loved the way we figure out what's going on through character actions, not asinine summaries from them. Really, whats left to say? Epic. 9/10 for me. |
| I knew it was Achan. I'm so sad to see this show end. I love it so much. I hope there will eventually be a second season. |
 |
| A solid 8/10, my only complaint is the relationship between Fumi + Achan was not developed enough romantically but more in a friendly kind of sense. I also thought Kyoko was a pretty pointless character but i think they should have had a little more time dedicated to Kou, but you cant win em all. |

niwasatou said: Thanks for affirming the obvious, Mr.Sherlock. I just wanted more Kou screentime since personally, he's a really interesting character for me. And there will be obviously a Kou/Kyouko development, given the fact that she is a main character in Aoi Hana. Go figures eh?

| Great anime for me (9/10) It was very relaxing and peaceful for me. Cant wait for next season. But i wonder what role A-chan had. But the best thing was growing character from begging to the end. |
| It was good am a little disappointed on one part tho. But it was still sweet tho at the end....it almost made me cry. |
| Nice ending. Japanese christmases seems to be really cozy :3 This is the best episode. |
| I love this show *-* The ending was so sweet <3 |
deadoptimist said: Though I think shit-flinging should also have standards - no personal, no behind the scenes. |
| Perfect ending. So sweet. I want another season... |
  |
| Decent show overall. |

| Really good ending, I really liked this show, gets an 8/10 for me :D Can't wait for season 2 (hopefully theres a season 2). |
 Breath|| |
| I know that it might not happen because of this ending but I still hope for a second season. I think we need an after story. I really enjoyed watching this series. |
| All of my worries of having the ending rushed just washed away with this last episode. Now that I'm done with the anime, I'll most definitely pick up the manga (torrenting it as I type) and hopefully it will satisfy my craving for more Sweet Blue Flowers. I could not find any faults in this anime according to my taste. Therefore, I give it a ten. Simply stunning. |

| a beautiful ending to a beautiful amazing anime *standing ovation* :) |
 |
| For a series that I wondered a bit about how appropriate an anime adaptation would be, this ending was handled surprisingly well. It's tough to hold it alone without comparing it at all points to the manga, but the changes that were made here were definitely appropriate to the medium and the length of the season (and the knowledge that there probably wouldn't be a continuation). Here the conclusion for Fumi in this version of the story is her connection with her long lost friend being rekindled completely. Lovely scene, too. Not like there were many that weren't. I'm satisfied on to sasameki koto |
| I'm a little sad Fumi didn't tell Aa-chan she was her first love x__x I wanted to see them kiss too...it's really sad that it's over. Hopefully there's be a second season. It DID say 'Fin'...but you never know. Some animes say that (and games) and end up having sequels. |
 |
| How ironic is it to have a Buddha Christmas snow globe? Anyways the anime was great to watch with plenty of good angst and I'm hoping they'll continue the anime. |

| Are they going to have a second season? If they are than I can live with how it ended. I really liked the anime though it was really nice to watch. I liked all of the characters and that rarely happens so I do hope for a second season. I kind of figured that Fumi's first love was Aachan. |
| what is a person with SAD to do.. |
| Great Show. I loved the ending but I'd love to see more of this series. Very touching and well made. J.C. Staff are amazing and so is Kenichi Kasai. |
     |
| Such a great anime. The ending made me slightly teary, filled me with a nice warm fuzzy feeling, and also made me sad that there wasn't going to be a second season. Beautiful art, beautiful music, beautiful storyline... 10/10 for me Onto the manga!:D |
tehnominator said: Or if through some weird blessing, we get OAVs based on Akira x Fumi growing up. THAT I'd like to see. Hmm...well, it would be nice if they have OVAs. I would love to see Akira and Fumi growing up too. |
| what is a person with SAD to do.. |
| Brilliant ending to a wonderful anime. I can't even find the words to describe it. I was blown away by the ending scene. Definately a series I will keep rewatching for years to come. |
| very good! Great pacing, conflict, romance, animation, art, etc. Was very relaxing too. Overall I give it an 8/10. I wonder if they will make another season, but either way I am pleased with the way it ended. |
| geeeh =,= season 2!! |

| In the end Fumi didn't even tell A-chan that she loved her? T_T Well it was still a good ending so it's ok I guess, I'm still going to hold out for a second season though, ecause I don't like to read manga a whole lot and I like it even less when I don't have the physical book in front of me....I might just cave in and read it anyway though.....maybe..... |
| Actually I liked the end like this, a second season would ruin it. I think it would be alright for Fumi and Acchan being friends now, Acchan was Fumis first love and she is not necessarily loving her now. I think like this it's not like "everyone is happy, UTOPIA!", it's more like "everyone isn't crying that much anymore, hurray" Realism is always the better way But, to be honest, I was expecting Fumi to tell Acchan that she was her first love... |

| I really liked this series, the ending was perfect. I don't think it needs a second series. |
| 5/5, I enjoyed the ride, but I would have enjoyed a confession at the end. Aloud. Not a mental confession. I give it a few days before I start going through yuri withdrawal. |
 |
| For the first time a "girl romance" didn't bore me to death because it was not just about "Let's keep touching to each other's nasty places shyly and finish this episode". Yes, I was quite disturbed at some moments with the chains of love problems between nearly every single main *and sometimes supporting* characters, but anime kept it real and didn't exaggrate relations of virgin lovers to a sick level; made watchers kind of wondering about "what if"s yet made them feel appreciatingly satisfied. *I am, ofcourse, talking about myself here. XD* I am glad they didn't turn to each other in the end, saying "I love you Fumi", "I love you A-chan". That would kind of ruin my expectations because A-chan is apparently not a character that goes all out like Yasuko when it comes to her romantic feelings. Thus, anime gets a 8 for its lovely art, Fumi's adorable voice, acceptable scenario, simple but suitable opening. |
 |
| Wonderful ending to a good series. The snow scenes were really pretty and remind me of how good JCStaff can be when they try. |
| does anyone know what was written on the page? crunchyroll didn't bother to translate it :/ |
| hmmm, enjoyed the series more than I thought I would. It was plain, subtle and subdued. But that fit the material perfectly. Even the intense moments were done without yelling. I wouldn't mind some form of continuation, OVA or otherwise. I probably won't pick up the manga for awhile because I'm afraid I might catch up to the latest material too quickly. I hate having to wait week to week, or worse month to month for the continuation of something I enjoy. |
