Watching Kobato follow around Fujimoto in the first bit of the episode was rather tiresome, but I have to say, Kobato's farewell scene was really quite beautiful - animation, music, dialogue, everything. Kudos to whoever directed that scene. It was pretty heart-wrenching, particularly for a series that hasn't managed to do that yet despite all that's happened so far.

The first part was a bit boring, but the rest wasn't that bad.
Although I found it strange that Fujimoto's konpeito somehow completed everything
The bottle looked far from being full, but this is the ending, so I shouldn't complain.

I wonder how they'll get Kobato back in Fujimoto's world.
I'm sure Ioryogi and Fujimoto will have something planned for el grande finale.

Hmmmm, still some plot holes. I mean, why in the hell did Kobato get special treatment? Even with the contract it just don't add up. Shit is complicated and unfair up in Heaven.

This was so sad .___. i cried too~
can't believe Kobato was just a wandering soul. I loved that crown on her head.
And it's so weird that such a cute bunny didn't even care about anything but the contract. I guess what's decided is decided, no matter what changes occur in the meantime. T__T And i loved Ioriogy's reactions T_T

I just love Kobato. T__T *tearing*

Now I want to know where she'll be reborn.

You know what I thought before starting this episode?

''It'd be so cheesy if Kobato suddenly heals someone's heart and a bigass konpeito fills the bottle.''
And that actually happened. o___o

Didn't the contract say that she couldn't fall in love with anyone's heart she healed? And wasn't she in love with Fujimoto..? xD Then she healed his heart, so it should't have counted, right?

I definitely did not expect that to happen, and perhaps it was a bit too sudden..

That was indeed the premise as a I remember. But perhaps they let this aspect out in the anime? (I don't really remember them literally stating it in the show) ..Ór.. since their love seems mutual, that could have 'undone' the 'contract'.

Well, it wasnt a halo. The hat reveal was more of a "huh..." moment than anything surprising. I think they could have done it better by actually explaining what happened in the past. Hope there's some of that in the last episode...

Cleverly put, or maybe it'll make it so she's reborn in the same world, hence her wish not oming true?

Nice episode! I liked it a lot. When the glass thingy by Kobato shattered because of Fujimoto, I thought for one moment there was going to be a cliche happily ever after moment coming up... but it didn't, thankfully. I am most definitely looking forward to the last episode.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

maybe it counted because in fact she was in love with him. enough to fill the bottle. also that wasn't really the point whether she loved him or not. the act of falling in love might cause her to deviate from her mission or whatever. her [wish] changed but her contract did not. meaning that falling in love was merely a way to keep contracted people in line.

One of the better episodes. I cried ;_______________;
But, gosh, I was surprised when she took off her hat and there was a crown. But I thought she was a dead person, or some kind of dove.

I predict that Kobato will be reborn to the world, but won't remember anything?
Actually, that would by so sad ;o;

I was pretty close to smashing the screen in when the stupid bunny came floating down again. It's SO ANNOYING.

I *still* don't know who started that rumour. It was later posted in Wikipedia and everyone gave it for granted, but I've watched the whole anime, read all manga chapters available and even watched Clamp in Wonderland 2 for completion's sake, and there was NO MENTION OF SUCH RESTRICTION. So, there xD

But she was indeed a dead person. O_O
Wandering soul given temporary substance may be a better description though.

Afraid we'll have to wait for the next manga chapters for the answers. Some juicy info has already leaked from the latest one.

But Thats's actually where I got it from. Well, not Wiki, but MAL xD Thats what it said.. Oh, well it looks like they changed it, "However, she must not fall in love with a particular boy she works with and whose heart she must heal." When i first looked the anime up it said, "However, she cannot fallin love with people whose hearts she cures, or her wish cannot be granted." Something like that, anyways. So it's not true? o.o That would clear a few things up xD

I can't say for sure it's true or false. But I assure there's no mention of that restriction anywhere in the story so far. I'm not the only one that has doublechecked for that info. Many guys at Mangafox are stumped as well.

Guess my guess was wrong, I thought she was an angel or smth.

But really did anyone notice the similarity of this episode with Tsubasa Chronicle, like Fujimoto ad Kobato's hands were like touchig each other through the wall. Exactly like Tsubasa Ep 1.

And the time she turns to sakura petals and disappear, look like Tsubasa Shunraiki to me!
