| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ending of shit. Toshi, one of the dumbest characters of all history of anime. To Tsukasa Hojo: from Cat's Eye to City Hunter was a HUGE evolution, almost like water to wine. |

| It was fun start but got repetitive and boring after 9 episodes, also felt like it was going nowhere fast, so from ep 9 i just skipped to the last 2 episodes and it was like i didn't miss a thing lol, right back where i left and with no end in sight. At the start i was like 'nice this is fun watch!' 7/10, but in the end 5/10 from me. |
| Read the manga the true ending is in it. |
| Damn, after so many years of delays(I started watching back in December 2014), I finally managed to finish this! So that's the ending. A "what if" scenario if they had indeed catch Cat's Eye and was revealed to be Hitomi. Really wish they had continued up to the ending of manga. No worries, I have the complete Manga in all English, so I could read it as well sometime ^^ I did see one of the Anime episodes in the manga where Hitomi dress as a man and where Asatani fell in love. It was some chapter in Volume 11/18. So technically, they were actually close in animating the whole thing. But I see a couple of changes compared to the Anime. Hitomi actually showing her face(with disguise) and talking and tempting Toshi to have an affair on Cat's, even though she hates it "{ Toshi also had some buddies on him helping the investigation and Asatani seems more shy than ever!!! Guess the Manga is bit different, but I still appreciate the Anime for bringing them to life with full voices and OST :) Now that this is done. I guess I should watch the other classic 80s work of Tsukasa Hojo. City Hunter which has multiple seasons, but Season 1 and Season 2 BD are now out with English subs. Let's go!!! |

| I gave this episode a 5, out of respect for a series that I found to be extremely charming and oozing with that addictive 80s flavor! I have to say that this was also a really original episode, by creating this "play-within-a-play" (really, some post-modern content here). Yes, it didn't provide the "true ending" I wanted to see, but that's ok. I enjoyed the series, and that's what matters in the end: the ride. I'll probably read the manga someday, to see the way it truly ends! What's next? City Hunter, of course! And that crossover with Lupin, which I'm really curious about! |
| I thought it was a great "finale." I highly doubt Hitomi would've turned herself in to save Toshi's job, though, let alone take her own life out of shame. If it came down to it, I bet he would have just resigned and kept the secret, maybe even been folded into the group while daylighting as a simple salaryman somewhere. As for the whole series, I loved practically every minute and it's definitely a classic. I admit that much of the 2nd season wasn't as exciting as the 1st, but the stories and heists were very inventive, and it's a real accomplishment that they didn't rehash any save for a few. Somewhat disappointed that they never brought back some characters like Lupin's Bride and Slim Suspense, as they could've had at least 1 more ep each to spice things up (maybe in the manga?). And, of course, the lack of any resolution regarding the father was total let down. There wasn't even a real reason given as to how them collecting all this artwork was going to lead them to him in the first place. I kept waiting some hidden messages/symbols in the paintings to be revealed and that would point to his location. I also wanted to see a little something of how they became Cat's Eye in the first place. Oh well... Toshio was the real MVP, as his blundering and interactions with the chief were always comedy gold. And the progressive romance with Hitomi was solid. 9 "break me off a piece of those kitty-kats" /10 |
