Great that Hibito came home fine from the moon. I love that he gave a moonstone to Mutta and then hinted to him that its not a big deal, its alot of these on the moon so just go to the moon you too! <3

I really started to cry so hard when Mutta started to suspect that Sharon is sick. Sharon is such a good character in space brothers, the kind aunt ;( If she dies or gets seriously sick it will be so sad.

If Sharon dies I think Mutta will honor her by build the telescope. If that happens I will cry rivers.

They wouldn't.... to Sharon..... She needs to build her telescope in honor of her husband though : / All that foreshadowing is making me feel uneasy

Serika is one of the better girl next door types I've seen in a LONG TIME and that doesn't just encompass anime. Go get her Mutta!

It would be really sad if Sharon dies without her dream (and her husband's) to come true.
Stay strong Mutta ;_;

It's totally going to be Sharon, I could tell when Amanti first said that something bad would happen to someone close to him. And it's someone important to both Hibito and Mutta, who better(or worse) for it to happen to than the person who taught them about space.
I bet she's either going to die or stay in the hospital while trying to get people to invest. Mutta will be trying to get the telescope built so she can see some of the images before she dies.

Overall a good episode. I am completely wanting to see what happens next, looks like Serika gets to meet her. Maybe for the last time.

AUNT SHARON!
They even emphasized that scene where her phone was banged up from all the times she's dropped it.

Serika will be affected as well seeing how big of a fan of Sharon she is.

I don't really understand why Amanti told Mutta about her vision in this ep. He's going to be devastated either way (and can do nothing even if he knows) and worrying about the identity of the person getting sick affects his mental and physical wellbeing even before the tragic news come. If Mutta had questioned her about her vision later she could have said that she saw something bad happening but nothing clear enough to forewarn him. This is where you use white lies to spare someone extra suffering, dammit.

Otherwise a great episode as always. Sharon's presentation was interesting, but I do understand why the others would question the plan she has: must be expensive and time consuming to have the astronauts help with the construction. Still, I hope the moon telescope gets built during the series.

Finally, the zoom in on Sharon's phone is one of the more chilling cliffhangers in anime I've seen in a while. One of those "ohhh... ;_;" moments.

It's a type of warning to make sure he will cherish his time with his loved ones.

I'll be honest, I've hated the addition of the Amanti character from day 1, and it's impacted my enjoyment of the series. I honestly can't tell if it's from a storytelling point of view or just plainly not liking the character, but it's starting to really rub me the wrong way.

Am I weird?

ALS is a really shitty and sad way to die. If the show decides to follow the progression of the disease up until her death it'll be depressing as hell

I felt that too. I was hoping it would be less obvious to at least let us to doubt for a sec. This is like 100% sure that there will be something bad happen to Sharon .Sharon even said that he often drop her mobile phone with a closed up view of how badly scratch her mobile phone is ...

Woah, didn't know it would take so many days to get acclimated to being on earth again. I love how Sharon summed up the brother's relationship. That mutual kind of support they provide despite whatever friction they may have. X3 But yeah, seeing her in those memories and then later in the episode, I was dreading it could be her. :/ Especially after seeing how thrilled Serika was, ahhh.

Seems like some kind of debilitating disease like Parkinsons or something. Its sad but it would be perfect if she does die for Muta to go to the moon and build her telescope for her. She did say she was reaching out to nasa to help build it!

I hope she does not die.

I think she will get an illness and be hospitalized, so she won't be able to continue her work, but someone else will continue it. But I can see later in the series, her sitting in her hospital bed watching a broadcast of Mutta building her telescope.

At least I hope so :(.

Oh, Sharon... my guess is Parkinson, and that makes me feel terrible, but at the same time gives me hope that at least she can see her dream come true before she passes away. ;_;

After all that we went though this series you guys think that Sharon will die?

There have been like 10+ years after Serika dad died and probably that illness has a cure already.

Oh dangit ... the moment he confirmed it wasn't Hibito I knew it was going to be Sharon. They didn't even bother letting us wait and see either, it was pretty obvious it'd be her D; Especially with her dropping things more and more ... I mean look at what happened to her phone! Man that sucks >_< Especially since she's just getting a new project started ... uh oh D:
Serika as a fan was really cute though :3 Looks like they might even meet next episode! :O
It makes sense it'd take Hibito and them so long to re-adjust to Earth's atmosphere ... man, that must've been tough for them :S Glad they made it back okay though :D "Soggy udon is still udon!" Haha XD

I have a feeling Sharons illness will be the same as Serika's dad had and it will give a chance to Serika to realize a cure and save someone she likes from that illness. It's like a second chance for Serika to make her dream reality.

Serika is so cute.

But I had a feeling when I saw last episode's preview that it would be Sharon.
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

Mutta had the same reaction I did concerning the moonstone.

I could tell it would be Sharon as soon as they said it wouldn't be Hibito. The sudden scene switch to Sharon confirmed it. The phone drop trolled me hard... I felt stupid/paranoid like Mutta, though the following scene didn't make me feel much better. She's still going to die. ._.

At least Serika was cute.

I knew it was Sharon as soon as Amanti said Hibito would be just as sad. I was thinking it would be Hibito, space sickness or some shit lol. Mutta said his parents are very healthy and yeah, I would agree. Sharon is the only other person that both Mutta and Hibito are very attached to and she's always looked fairly sickly. Process of elimination says Sharon, even before the episode focus and obvious camera shots.

Episode 62 - Those Who Dream Far:

Hibito, Damian and Linda are finally on Earth, they looked very normal greeting everyone, yet they needed to lie down in bed.

Sharon, she can be the one that can cause Hibito and Mutta so much pain if she gets sick, because they cared much about her. She dropped her phone a few times too.

"Say, Hibito... Remember this." (Sharon) "Huh? Remember what?" (Hibito) "You have the strength to lead your brother." (Sharon)

"... Everyone, before you consider funding, I'd like you to use your imaginations. Picture a clear image of the universe, undistorted by atmosphere. Unknown galaxies and solar systems waiting to be discovered. The evolution of space. And the vivid beauty of the universe. A chance to see asteroids and meteorites up close. As astronomers, we lack the ability to travel vast distances. But we can see farther than anyone else." (Sharon)
