THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So there's the end of our beloved little series. It's been a while since I've shed this many tears at the end of an anime. I had to watch the raw since anon speed subs appears to have disbanded, hopefully another fansub will pick at least the last episode. EDIT: Well, subs just came out, that's good. Accompanying 2 main characters and their love interests throughout 2 generations was fun, the music fitting and the art great. I'm very conflicted on rating Allison & Lillia definitively since there are so many good aspects and so many bad aspects. Anyway I've gotta update my review, probably with a full rewrite, praising it more. For those who've followed this anime from the beginning, and also had the patience to wait for the subs and everything, thanks for watching and let's wait and see if there's anything similar this fall season, I'm betting on To Aru Majutsu or maybe Hakushaku no Yousei, see you there.

I am glad Treize made it through. The flying biplane ladder kick was truly epic. How did Prisoner No. 42 get up after that? This show was great. I agree that there needs to be more to the story. Allison's arc spread across 10 years almost, whereas Lillia's was only a couple years. I'd like to see the romance between Treize and Lillia, Travas and Allison getting married, and Travas revealing to Lillia that he's her father. This attack gets 10/10 for creativity ![]() Modified by Sheepdude, 10-04-08, 3:17 PM |

Oh wow epic ending, at least the Biplane sequence was the best among others before in the series..I find. Why the hell would Treize blush at revealing that he is the prince when he should be proud. To me that is just shame and being ashamed of royalty in his case should not be for the whole Ikstova family was persecuted and they did nothing for that. It was all greed. I am happy Treize and Lillia finally dance in the end. We finally know that Allison knew about Wil being Travas......ABOUT TIME. I knew it but was just not sure about her other than the expression and hints here and there. The train part was cool and SCREW THE CABINET MINISTER WHO IS SHIT. What kind of name is HOMME???? Means man....him being a man? MORE LIKE BEING A BIG BLOB OF SHIT WHO USES PEOPLE! Corrupted scum ass of a politician to top it off. Good thing he will rot now instead of #42. FINAL HOMMAGE: That was a nice flash back! ![]() Treize most flashing moment! ![]() THEY DANCE HAPPILY EVER AFTER! ![]() Oops! I appear to be incapable of following Rules 16 and 17, so I had to have a mod change my sig for me. |

Ending was a bit of a disappointment for me. For one thing, couldn't they find killing Treize easier if they used a gun? The villain went through this long complicated process to kill him using a train. And then what? He gets hit by a kid on a plane. I mean he dodged him so easily in the cabin. And what was the motive to kill Treize in the first place??? Why did the villain have to die with him? HOW DID TREIZE LIVE??? Confusing stuff. Also, I wish they told Lillia that her dad was alive. I was hoping for a wedding finale... |

The two things I was looking forward to the most, Treize revealing he's a prince and Travas revealing he's Lillia's dad, where either done poorly or not done at all. I felt totally let down by the ending of this show. I'll still give it an 8/10 overall but I really wish there was more or at least a better ending. I agree, the first half was way better then the second. Not only because we got to see Wil and Allison grow up and evolve but also because the story felt more complete. |

well that 's the end... i feel like the ending was okay... sucks that Lillia never got to know who her real father was even though he was right in front of her... i thought they were going to get to that in the end, but never did... overall a happy ending, so i guess that's okay... i'm glad i gave this series a chance because i really enjoyed it... the characters were really likable and grew on me as the series went on... |

Even though I'm normally prepared for things like that, it quite got me this time when Treize jumped back on the train. The ending wasn't a bad one at all there were lots of things missing, yes - maybe that could have been better if they had divided this episode into two. But I loved this show nevertheless with all it's ups and downs and the characters that grow on you quite much during the series. Therefore I'll give Allison to Lillia a 8/10. |

I never showed the train falling on Treize so maybe he could have gotten away in time. I loved this anime, surprisingly. I never thought I would. I ignored it for such a long time but I'm glad I finally watched it. it gets a 7/10 from me ![]() |

I was hoping for more of an explanation/motive as to why Treize was the target... And I was also hoping Wil would come out and say he was Lillia's father. *cries in corner* |

Plot Holes were everywhere. Example : The mastermind was practically asking to be punished for the lousy kidnapping attempt. Ending was extremely unsatisfying. I actually starting to to think that Criminal 42. is actually a good guy in disguise. |

So the first half of the ending was good, but the writers just clearly didn't know how to end it, so they just said "screw it, we'll skip it, fake kill Treize and then bring him back a minute and a half later!" Very odd choice and poorly executed. I still want to give the whole show an 8, but it will probably go down after time. |

this series was garbage, the only thing that made it watchable was allison. i honestly don't know how i forced myself to finish the second half, it had no redeeming qualities other than the occasional appearance of Fi and Benidict. |

I was personally a little disappointing by the ending, it felt rushed to me. We never even found out how Trieze survived the train wreck...or what happened to the villain. Not to mention he still never confessed his feelings to Lillia in words. I think it should have had one more episode to conclude things. Over all it was a descent ending to a great series....sad to see it end. ![]() "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life."

I was gonna be nice and give it a 7 but since a lot of things were just left unexplained, I'll give it a 6. Wasn't too bad. though. |

The ending was bad. Plain and simply bad, we feel as if the development wasn't finished, and the train incident was just... what the fuck happenned? The last arc was redundant and rushed too, so honestly, it was a very dissapointing series, starting so well and finishing (or not finishing) so bad... On top of that, the first half with Allison and Will was twice as good as the second part, where the animation and chara design failed totally. Maybe there are budget and staff issues, but it doesn't explain everything. |
