So many questions after finally finishing this...

Why did this episode suck a huge, giant cock?
Why did Nezumi leave?
Why was there no sex scene?

They only get better, so I'll stop.

Ermmmmmmmmmmm... Nezu-pon, where the hell are you going to? Just screw your pretty boy already.

Moreover:
I regret watching this. Dammit, shoud have stopped at the previous episode. Or not, better at 6th or 7th. After excellent beginning everything went so downhill. Now I need some good manga to get rid of horrible aftertaste.

A BABY?! WHUT. New beginnings, new life, blah blah, I NEED MORE NEZUMI ACTION MAN. OR HOW THE CITY IS BEING REBUILT..WHAT THEN, A STRONGER (FAKE) UTOPIA?! AHHH SO MANY DAMN QUESTIONS!!

ANYWAYS, I did love the West District and I wish we'd get so see some more life from there. More destruction on No. 6 please! The constant smiles and laughter ticked me off...ignorance really is bliss, huh?

Did not appreciate Shion's random mood swings. I mean, he completely threw away his belief whenever he was shocked and ended up turning in to a totally different person.

I think Nezumi held this show up for me, really. I guess I just adored the whole mysterious soldier vibe from him. His character and determination really kep me drawn to him.

Yeah, with all the plot holes, I am a total sucker for it. Ending was thrown at my face but it the graphics and sci-fi history was enjoyable. So, here's your 8, Nezumi!

Disappointed :S
The anime had a wonderful start, mysterious and action packed which makes you want to watch all the episodes in one day..
Around the 7th episode it started to get a bit boring but bearable
The final episode was horrible, so confusing and rushed and Out-of-Character Nezumi was pathetic
One episode ruined a very good anime.. Disappointing

well the ending wasn't the greatest, but i dont think it was the worst ive seen. i love the relationship between shion and Nezumi. im glad they kissed again in the final episode. there's only really one thing that was annoying me:

THOSE DAMN MOOD SWINGS! shion went waaaayyy out of character!! alot of what happened in the last episode wasnt explained properly, it was like they needed a double length episode.

This epsiode leaves a lot unexlpained but im guessing that when Safu disppeared and that pollon? stuff fell from the sky it revived Shion as well as healing Nezumi's injuries.

Im happy about Shion surviving (althought he reaction from Nezumi when he got up was TERRIBLE) and everything but was it really neccassary to make them part in the end? I mean, Nezumi has nothing else to do now, right? Revenge has been taken out and all is well, so why leave?

I think that they should have done more episodes, therefore having more time to explain this and that, along with coming up with a more satisfying ending.

Oh my gosh, I seriously thought Sion was actually dead...I cried ;~;...but then when he came back I was so happy ^_^

Kinda didn't care much for Safu, but I can't say that I wasn't affected at all, I mourned a bit when I saw the reminisce.
I was seriously screaming "KISS KISS KISS!!" during the whole time the credits were showing, and then when they did, I just spazzed out so hard...just..ugh <3

I was really upset when Nezumi left, though. What happened to "We'll live together, you, me, mom"..yeah, that would've been nice, but oh well.

Great anime, loved it, great plot and characters. 7.5/10

What a bullshit ending,one of the worst I have seen.
what's up with Nezumi saying that Safu is no longer herself?what the hell?after all that personal talk with Shion?I get that she has another person/thing inside her now,but she obviously still has her memories and feelings and is aware of herself.
don't even get me started on the bees or Elyurias.Those were so poorly explained if even explained at all.

I loved the relationship between Nezumi and Shion and Nezumi especially is a good character and there was a good amount of character development in this show,these are the only reasons I'm giving this a 6 out 10.

and yes the kiss between them at the end was too short.

There was a swirl of emotion in this episode. Some that I like and some that I don't. I really didn't want to see Shion blaming Nezumi and it made my heart ache(not in a good way). Oh, I love how Nezumi was fighting to keep Shion as he was, as a pure boy, by playing the bad guy, but I didn't like it as well because I didn't want to see him playing the bad guy role. Nezumi has been through so much already, why does he have to suffer by making the one he so cherishes hate him.(no I'm not trying to say they have a love relationship, just saying that Nezumi likes that Shion is "pure")

One of the worst endings I've ever seen in any show, anime or not.
Everything's cramped to the extreme and makes NO SENSE whatsoever.

Shion, who's been so hell bent on saving everyone, suddenly changes his mind and wants to blow the corrupt world to pieces. Nezumi, who's always wanted to convince Shion to hate No. 6, is suddenly "hell no, you mustn't (stain your pure and pretty soul, lol)!". Worst of all, what these two do in the end, is of no consequence to the plot, because if it's Safu who wants the computer to be destroyed, she would've done that even without the boys' assistance.

Then it gets EVEN WORSE. Magical tornadoes appear out of the blue and kill the bees - the bees, whose existence wasn't even explained properly. "Elyurians" also receive no explanation - we're only allowed to know that they were a bunch of magical forest creatures, uh-huh. And their leader can apparently transform into a giant bee and revive dead people with songs. Wonderful, a way to go "plot twist" in a "science fiction" show.

Also, the city walls are destroyed with pure magic. Thousands (millions?) of innocent people die, and the survivors are doomed to lives of poverty and starvation, but hey, it's a HAPPY ending, the one Shion wanted, right? Let's rejoice!

Oh, and before I forget: the rebels' leader makes his grand entrance to a plaza filled with already dead people. Guess he was yet another character whose actions had absolutely no impact on this deus ex machina plot. Karan's ties to the creators of No 6. are never explained. And in her last scene, this brilliant, caring woman LEAVES A SMALL GIRL ALL ALONE IN A FALLEN, DESTROYED CITY. What. The. Hell.

Last but not least: I usually cry a lot when characters die. It takes next to nothing to make my eyes water. But the scene with Nezumi singing to Shion's dead body only made me think: "geez, can't this stupid place explode already"?

I totally regret wasting my time on this damn show.

I really liked this anime. The plot was really good, I loved Nezumi's personality and Shion's cuteness (even though he was unrealistically a good and inocent person). I didn't expect the death of Yomming because I thought he was a good guy (kinda crazy but good). A quick ending? Guys, let not be so hard on the anime, it was jut 11 episodes. I think they could have WAY more of the story but it was too short to do something about it. They had a lot of material for it just not much time.

There are dozens of things unsaid and I'm curious of the chip Shion destroyed, WHERE THE BONES NEZUMI WENT and what happened to Dogkeeper and Rikiga. I wasn't happy because of Safu's death but I can live with it. Nezumi and Shion couldn't die because jesus, NO and I'm really glad they survived.

This is the first time I watch an anime of this category and I loved it besides the little things not solved. 9/10 from me :3

The ending...Nezumi kissing Shion. Is it a good bye kiss? ewe
oh and why did Nezumi must leave Shion? I thought he want to be together with Shion? damn please give me a better explanation for this! D:
I think the ending is kinda...hang out? so..it's a happy ending? Karan and his son, Shion met each other again and you call it's a happy ending with many people dead? wow.

Wish I could have liked it more, but it was too flawed and lacked content. I've read too many dystopian books to know what was gonna happen. The pacing was way too slow for me and the characters were incredibly inconsistent and boring to watch. Also, too many plotholes in the last half. It was more on the fantasy side instead of sci-fi. 6/10

Loved the kiss.
Hated their parting.
Again, loved the kiss.
But, when Nezumi left Shion I was like: "Wait. Did he just up and leave him like that? WHY?"
I just want to throw out there that the ending of the manga makes more sense.
THERE WAS ACTUAL DIALOGUE.

Cry. That goodbye kiss!!!
WHEN DOES HE COME BACK?!?!

What I did understand from that lame excuse of an ending was why Nezumi didn't want Shion to kill that man.
It was sad and resulted in Shion's loss of innocence.
I guess Nezumi wanted Shion to stay the innocent and pure hearted person he was. His ignorance and naivety was a part of Shion and if that kept him the way he was then so be it.
Nezumi didn't want Shion to become corrupted, like him.

I agree with everyone here.

THE ONLY FAULT OF THIS ANIME WAS THE SHORT AMOUNT OF EPISODES! And probably the producers too.

On another side note:
The voice seiyuus were EXCELLENT <3
Especially Nezumi's~~
I really really loved his voice.

Oh wow this ending is actually quite impressively sad.. while Shion and rat did survived by the powers of that queen wasp or whatever that thing was that took over Safu but well they didn't managed to rescue Safu which did seem the final plot of this whole series which made this ending quite lacking but still beautiful sad in a way!

The Yaoi stuff really destroyed this for me especially this second time in the end, makes it just a killer from quality for the whole series (if this anime didn't had this concept it would've been a lot better!)

Other than that the story sure was interesting it had a quite lovely concept together with a decent pace so other than the above mentioned huge flaw it was still a pretty nice anime in general! 7/10

This was very weird and awkward. Overly dramatic screaming and explosions ending with Sion dying BUT BEING BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE BY A SPARKLING RAINBOW WASP. And what's up with the baby anyways? Has it suddenly become an important part of the show? Why did Nezumi leave, I didn't get a good explanation as to why he couldn't just keep living with Sion.

I really think it would have been a much better ending if Sion died.

^This.
If you want to kill him, kill him. If you want to let him live , let him live.
DONT DO THEM BOTH !
I liked the show this far, even the final ep, i could accept no explanation about the bee thing etc. i was even ok with Shions death, but the moment they revived him, the show dropped 4-5 points for me.

Was there a reason to why the man who was investigating No. 6 died, just to have his death revealed in a "He's dead and everyone is happy"-kind of way? Was it to demonstrate the randomness of the bees, or were the watcher supposed to hate him (Why?) and rejoice over his death?

Rushed and predictable at every turn. This show could have been good if it had more direction and compression. Instead, everything was ambiguous as fuck and nothing was explained. A little of that is fine, but it goes a long way. Shion's sudden 180s were just out of place, as was Nezumi sobbing about it. Eh, I don't see a reason why they should have parted ways. There is nothing left... Why be overdramatic about it?

5/0 for me.

I have SO MANY EMOTIONS RIGHT NOW. I THOUGHT THEY BOTH DIED ATLEAST FIVE TIMES. WHY.

At first it was "WTF I STAYED UP ALL NIGHT BEFORE AN EXAM JUST TO WATCH EVERYONE I LOVE DIE. I HATE THIS."
Then it was "HE CAN'T BE DEAD. HE CAN'T BE NO NO NO NO AND NOT NEZUMI TOO NO"
Then I started bawling because HOLY SHIT they aren't dead thank the lord of anime. BUT THEN NEZUMI WALKS OFF. WHY. COME BACK.
BUT. Atleast he returned the kiss. That made it a little less painful.

I don't even know what to think about this. I'm happy and sad and in love with this weird short anime. Boy love at it's finest. And safu finally became useful and is the only reason my boys are even alive. jesus. Anime. Feelings. Not a good combination.

Very end.
No.
Bad end, bad!

Didn't include the opening window scene.
Kiss was quick and all awkward. Kiss happened as a vow for Nezumi's return in novel.
Nezumi just bails out??? gee thanks
^^The novel at least, with the dialogue, lets you understand he's pretty much leaving to have his own life and return to Shion eventually.
^^Hence importance of window scene T_T
Didn't include the letters and how Shion is part of the reconstruction.
Sudden delivery of baby x_x

Ugh. Bones why you gotta do that....



Not having read the novel your post just made my day, after balling about how Nezumi was just leaving out of the blue, knowing hes supposed to return someday felt soooo good to read, the way they did it in the show made it seem like he was never coming back and I was heart broken. Thank you!!!!!!! :D

What a fucking horrible mess this was. Didn't answer shit. Safu's character existed just cause to provide *plot* and she just died off..

*Sigh* What a waste, started off with so much promise and all that was lost to the BL stuff and nothing more. Everything was so circumstantial, magic light appearing saving Shion/Nezumi and everything was so much bullshit.

It would have at least made me happy to see Shion reunite with his mother, but NOPE!
I feel like I wasted my day watching this.

5/10, mediocrity at its best. Should really give it 4/10 actually but I enjoyed it till the last few shit episodes.
