DrHouse said: Oh no no! Not closure. Here are my points:I don't know what everyone's problem is with the ending. Kimimaro returns to all the places that were important to him before moving on. A thematically appropriate ending with closure, if nothing else.

| disapointed realy i had higher hopes yet it got cut into a half season anime quite a let down |
 I signed my screen and now its all smeary "When you meet your God tell him to leave me alone." check out my bloghttp://corpse69.wordpress.com/ fix MAL already |
| WTF!! Seriously disappointed with the ending. A lot of unanswered questions. Like who the hell was Kimimaro's dad? Was Masyu actually Kimimaro's future? Wasn't she supposed to be like Kimimaro's daughter or something? This series would have been a lot better if it was 24-26 episodes. I really do hope they make an explanatory OVA or something. Overall I liked the series, but the ending made me downgrade the score to an 8. |
| "El Psy Congroo" |
| I dont get it. So i have been reading some comments, and so Kimimaro is a ghost like form now?... toatally did not get it. |
| Disappointed. Confused. Last few episodes and this ending made me w.t.f. |
| This in regards to people wondering about Mikuni's disappearance: Mikuni is stuck in between reality and the present that was not changed. In other words he is stuck in between dimensions. He clearly said that he wanted to live in the now unchanged. The only way to do that is to live in a alternate space where things are as they were. Problem is none of it is reality. Mikuni may also have dissipated because if you cannot live in the present now then you cannot live at all for there is not present that was. It is only the now that Mikuni hates. Mikuni wanted to only live in the present that is not changed with his sister Takako. That's the best I can explain there is no other explanation less he means the now as in trying to live in the changes present. Kuro-Tenshi said: No he is not a ghost and he clearly lives in reality unlike Mikuni.I dont get it. So i have been reading some comments, and so Kimimaro is a ghost like form now?... toatally did not get it. |
| wait what...it's over? |
 |
| i felt this series needing more explanation on what was going on in the whole district and the whole Dad factor of kimimaro. Anyway the amount that Kimimaro was fighting for at the end must of been huge to change everyones future like that. Although I do feel like he got the short end of the stick with not being able to be with the people he knew. Overall to me this series was alright nothing that will raved about "in the future" I think. |
| Hey Can Some Please Explain The Ending Because Its Confusing Me:/ |
| Here's a summary: Yoga: "Oh hey Masakaki reverse money. Doesn't make sense, but screw the rules I have money." Masakaki: "Ok lol" God: "Sup Yoga, we just made you do this bullshit to improve humanity or some shit" Yoga: "Oh cool lol" Masakaki: "K so now Japan is saved and everyone has their futures brah" Yoga: "Wait wtf nobody knows me" Masakaki: "trololol, bro you bet on the future, so now you have no past and present. You still have your future so you can come back any time. The FD is still open bro." Yoga: "Whatev dawg. I guess this means everyone has infinite future and money don't mean shit or somethin'" Yoga: "Well if I learned shit during this I learned I should smile for the camera" |

Are you part of the production team or something because I have no idea how you got all of that. Just because he said he wants to live in the now all of a sudden he in some parallel universe? Other than what he said, which doesn't really explain much to begin with, there is nothing else that leads you to believe he is stuck in some other dimension. What I took from that is Mikuni is going to live in the moment that is, meaning experiencing the moment he is in now (living in the present) and not worrying about the future or the past. Kind of like how people say live in the moment/the now. His whole thing was to preserve the present so what he said just goes along with his philosophy, doesn't show that he is trapped in another time or space from anyone else. |
Merciless said: No you are right but this is your view in other words IMO and I gave out mines because the ending of Mikuni is precisely open interpretation. We cannot confirm your point either because we never Mikuni apply this philosophy and personally I don't think he wants to live in the reality that Kimimaro brought.Yumekichi11 said: This in regards to people wondering about Mikuni's disappearance: Mikuni is stuck in between reality and the present that was not changed.

| Ending was interesting. I don't think kimimaro is a ghost or some entity not apart of the world because of the way masakaki was talking to him. But this definitely leaves a lot of loose ends for a season 2. |
Endar said: Considering that the name plate outside the gate says "Nagata", I... really have no idea who's house it is. It might be that Hanabi's name is in fact Nagata, and not Ikuta (which it is, according to MAL's character list). Or it's a complete stranger's house. That'd be a twist.Ovindel said: I thought the same thing. "Wait, wasn't that Hanabi's house?". I don't know what the deal is. It could be lazy animation.IAlready said: Wait, if you look carefully you can see the face of the father (I assume) of the children, so why would it be the professors house? And that house is Hanabi's, right? What do those have to do with eachother?koolvid said: Remember the house that Kimimaro visited before he goes back to the park. Then the kids started coming out and when the kid look outside, Kimimaro already left. I mean who is the only person he's gonna visit except Hanabi, certainly that's the professors house.where did you see the professor have his family back? At least it's nigh impossible to misread it as Ebara at least, so it shouldn't be the professor's house. And I guess it's possible that someone's already come to that conclusion on the following two pages, but I didn't see any post like that, so whatever. |
| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |
| It's the professor's house. One of the subs had a mistake. |

Or should I say the-Hanabi-from-the-reality-Kimimaro-once-knew. That Deity (oh geez...) said the world is totally different now. And it indeed is. So, 2 possibilities as I see it: - the house belongs to some other random family now, not Hanabi's. (And it's not Ebara's, because it's really inpossible to mistake 長田 (Nagata) for 江原(Ebara)). - it's Hanabi's family house, it's just that Hanabi's so changed due to Kimimaro's actions that even her last name changed (from 生田 to 長田). It also might be that the caregiver is the new very changed Hanabi, but also it might be that it was not her and the Hanabi of this reality exists somewhere, in different city or something. Either way, it seems her and Kimimaro never met in this reality. |

Yumekichi11 said: Ovindel said: It is her simply because of that beauty point she has in the spoilerI don't understand you completely. First, Masakaki said that the girl that was caretaker of those children lookie like Hanabi but wasn't her. Am I right? But that means what Masakaki said to Kimimaro could be not true? |
Ovindel said: Yeah because he mentions a little something called "I was thinking what you may be thinking" idea. Masakaki is a manipulator. I would not trust anything he says other than FD stuff.

CG said: I doubt she is that much changed but clearly there may have been a time that passed that made Hanabi progress with her studies and become what Kimimaro saw her as. It also might be that the caregiver is the new very changed Hanabi, CG said: I don't think so since most likely the Hanabi Kimimaro knows would work in the city where the teacher would be closest as to ask him about advice but in general this one is the less likely I would go for as a theory.but also it might be that it was not her and the Hanabi of this reality exists somewhere, in different city or something. CG said: That may also be but it would have been nice that Kimimaro would have finished saying her name to see her reaction.Either way, it seems her and Kimimaro never met in this reality. |
| I now love Msyu 40 times more than usual. :3 |
 |
| The fight was nice to watch, but the show overall was just... :| |
 |
| Awesome ending to a meh series... 7/10. |
Use your brain before using your keyboard!  |
| That was lovely |
 |
| Great ending. I still feel bad for Kimimaro because he had to sacrifice everything for the future, But he still was happy. Some things were not that clear. But [C] is an anime that makes you think twice before you get anything. And I think that english song was out of place. Anyway: HawthorneKitty said: I thought it was an amazing end, definitely the best anime of the Spring season. All the characters were intriguing and plot and concept it revolved around was executed in a fantastic way. Entertaining all the way to the end, I will give it a 10. 10/10 |
| A sentence to describe C: Started off great, or rather perfect, but wrapped up quite badly :/ |
| オタクなんじゃねぃよ I'm not an otaku. |
| Ending was utter bollocks "m8". |
| Those people who is mindfucked about ending, just drop it. I mean, you won't know the truth since the anime didn't tell us anything about it -_-;; All these theories and ideas of what happened after is just a guess and its up to you guys whether to believe it or not. Or more importantly, we can wish for 2nd season to come out and answer all the the questions that people are asking right now... Thus, don't rate this series bad just because you were mindfucked. I mean, I'm mindfucked as well and I've read several other forums in regarding to get some answers though everything were guesses. |
Yumekichi11 said: Endar said: Yes we do know but it was spoon fed like a direct conversation with Kimimaro that they could have put to explain to us her depression or like the time he came to her place.Endar said: Mostly all this and that she has strong values of saving money and spending it. Her boyfriend may be nameless but we do know he is rich.All we know about her is If I missed something, please let me know. Endar said: No it was not explored sadly and I wished her boyfriend may have had a FD influence or that she herself would join FD to make some WTF situation at Kimimaro but sadly none got there. Hanabi was essentially a support character for Kimimaro that had nothing to do with FD and was a same school buddy for Kimimaro.Now we got the first four of those in the first episode. So yeah, her character was never really explored. Oh yeah, forgot about the implication about her boyfriend being loaded. Thanks. Probably. I would have liked to see her in a more direct role in the FD or her boyfriend be an entre. It is actually possible that he was, but we never saw him. I mean, we don't know if the FD has a member list that entre's can see. They might have that because you could pick an opponent for deals, but we do not know. I guess I just wanted more out of her in this series. Yumekichi11 said: That may also be but it would have been nice that Kimimaro would have finished saying her name to see her reaction. Yeah that would have helped. Because he just said "hana" which is flower. That is kind of a word you would expect to hear in a park. And Masakaki is definitely not trustworthy. He doesn't even true his counterparts from other FDs. |

| Ending... felt kind of... lacking? Hanabi was just there, suddenly the American female agent becomes a good guy, the guy who was a good guy became a bad guy, Msyu just disappeared with no resolution, and Masakaki just appears outta his ass once again? What the fuck |

What the fuck i agree with most of that. it had potential & some excellent moments... but they just weren't executed. 6/10. |
  |
| Could have been better. Masakaki turned from intriguingly creepy to a character that felt forced, especially when the other Masakakis were revealed. The battles were odd from the start - what with the Engrish and those jargon. But it really started to get bad when Kimimaro suddenly completely followed everything the lollipop-sucking lady told him to do. Not something I'd recommend to anyone. |
| C is the worst show of the season. Not only that this show is boring but it is also unable to answer its own questions. What I got is "Actually, we are building a better future for you so please just sit there quietly and STFU or replay the game " |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |

| In the end this show was a big fuss over nothing. At least that's what i felt because nothing really made sense. No i don't mean i have trouble following it i just had trouble accepting what was shown and they hardly explained any of the dark spots of the plot. I can't give a high mark to an incoherent plot like this. It just seemed like it was trying to say or show us something but completely failed on doing so. In the end the whole concept failed to rise-up as an inspiration method of storytelling. |
| Isn't Masho his future daughter? Isn't that kinda wrong? I liked the kiss on the forehead better... oh well. Then ending was super rushed imo but the fighting was good at least. |

| Fuck. I can't. I can't describe my emotions right now. There are no words for what I'm feeling. That censored kiss. That fight. That ending. |
| Bollocks. |
| I once rated this series 9... ... and now it's down to 6... WTH happened!? It started so good but then rushed and the plot went meh I loved Trapeze but this... ugggggh what kind of ending is that!? |
| Ended how I expected it too. In a way that most would not understand just like how the economy really is haha. I was under the impression that this series was supposed to be 20 something episodes but was cut back due to lack of interest by the Japanese viewers (the ratings where bad). You can plainly see they had a lot more they wanted to do with the show but couldn't due to the cut back (ie. Yoga's Dad's book of numbers, Yoga and Msyu's relationship, Yoga and Hanabi's relationship, why yoga's dad's asset looked like Yoga's, what happened to Yoga's dad, who the god(s) of the FD are, Mikuni's future being saved thanks to him owning one of Msyu's 10 shares thus not losing all of his money in the end...etc). With that said the ending made perfect sense. The future was saved but not the future Yoga was expecting. It's a future in which the FD had never existed, one where people where not effected by the depression. FD is still obviously there and will continue to suck up future only when more people join it and flood the world with it's currency again. The ending was bitter sweet because Yoga's future was worse than his past. He started with nothing and ended with less yet saved everything. Future Hanabi, now Miss Nagata, is a kindergarten teach who we can guess has never met Yoga. Her old house is now owned by some other family (possibly relatives since they share the same name unless the subbing groups messed that up). Yoga is on his own in a world where most people may not even know him now. We have no idea if he has any money to his name or still has a place to live. All we know is he has a future and he's there and can witness what he saved. |

| God I hate Noitamina and their 11 or 12 episode bullshit. Countless shows would've been good if they were longer. |
| Hmm, kind of an anticlimactic ending. We all knew Q was Mikuni's sister and that Namimaro would beat Mikuni. The romantic relationship between Mysu and Namimaro also had absolutely no depth (and is kind of icky since he names his daughter after her). And the Financial District is still there, so nothing's really changed. Sure, a bunch of people were saved, but who is to say it won't all happen again? I guess this is the point where we have faith that Namimaro will step in once more if needed. (And why he's so great, I still don't understand.) Would have liked more backstory on Namimaro's father and where his mother went, that was one gaping hole that annoyed me. Oh well. Would prefer not to have a second season of this show, although they've set themselves up nicely for one if they want it. Overall I felt the show didn't have strong enough direction. The animation was pretty bad, with its choppy scene cutting (I don't care that it was intentional, it was annoying and made a few things difficult to understand). The random CGI made everything worse. Art was okay, music was okay. It had a good premise but ultimately the story didn't come together effectively. Giving it a 5/10. |
