Its over! I never thought it would be ony 11 episodes. Lets hope for a second season. Anyways, as for the episode, it was alright. I didn't really find anything too exciting. It was all stuff that would be expected to happen.

I still think it was a good episode though, the usual nice stuff. A second season would be awesome.


8/10

I'll describe this episode as I'll describe the entire series. It was ok. Never bored me but it was far from great. Hopefully, and if there is a second season, it will improve.

I thought about giving it an average score. But I liked characters like Ko/Yomi and some gags were really entertaining. Though I guess I'll rate it down to a 7 looking at which other shows I rated an 8.

There was some stuff left unexplained, like that woman who was talking about fate, and why the ferryman was like that in the end. I feel there could be a 2nd season planned.

It was a satisfying ending. Nothing special, but pretty good. The series as a whole wasn't too bad.
There is definitely potential for a second season, since some things were unexplained, or unresolved, like the shinigami still not having his core in the end, or pretty much everything about the WFO.

I'm looking forward to a second season, if there is one. I don't know, I enjoyed this series. Maybe not the best series ever, but the art style, the music, and the darkness with some gags thrown in... is not a genre I usually watch. So this was definitely a different series for me -- and I really enjoyed it!

Well... I liked the episode in and of itself. It would have been an awesome ending to an arc within the show. Especially a second-to-last arc. But as the last episode for the season? Not too good. Let's just hope they make a second season...

*inserts wish for second season*

Good enough ending for me. I really thought for a moment that the girl golem was going to live through this story arc...

Looks like my good friend Bondius reviewed ZL. He is pretty much spot on.

I really hope for a second season with that ending, the ferryman seemed pretty damn interesting. And, it was a pretty good episode. A real shame that the golem was killed though, I really hoped she would live.

There better be a second season. I need closure! I love how all the characters are starting to develop now and I hope to see more. I wish that golem wasn't killed... she was so cute and poor Shito got pretty attached to her.

I gave it an 8/10.. though if we could give things .5 marks it would be at 7.5... I change my ratings periodically after I reflect and such, so it probably will go down to 7, until a second season comes... yeah.

I thought that this episode was pretty predictable, but good nonetheless. I wish the golem had lived... and I like how the characters changed throughout this (too short) series. The ending with the Ferryman was really good, I think. Bring on season 2.

A good series overall. Nothing extraordinary but not too bad; perhaps because there was onli 11 episode but if there's a 2nd season continuing, it could be much better and more exciting.

I was satisfied. I liked that it was left open for improvement and further growth, so even if there isn't a second season I'll probably read the manga.

I am glad Shito called Chika by his name, I was worried they'd forget about the importance of Shito making friends to the story ending. Well, all is well. Nothing overly exciting, but good enough. If anything it was really pretty like usual.

I'm hoping there's a second season because there's still things that need to be revealed. 11 episodes is too short!

Ahh...a bit of a pity, it was actually starting to pick of steam and I was starting to like the characters. For only an 11 episode series, I'd say its pretty good.

I totally didn't feel like that was an ending. The series was way too short. The ending is very similar to Tsubasa Chronicle Second Season, in a darker essence of course. I'll definitely watch out for a second season.

Felt like the show just started rather than ended so ... *waits for OVA* I hope they tie things up there.

I wish we could rate .5s too because I'd give this a 7.5. Couldn't quite decide whether to give it an 8 or a 7 but after looking at other shows that I rated 8's, I ended up giving this a 7.

I didn't expect that. I thought it was going to have some cheesy ending where he did take her back to the dorms but she would die a day later from lack of protein.

ZL's storyline was quite predictable, but nonetheless I found myself enjoying it because the characters still managed to interest me, and the animation was also appealing. The last episode effectively opened the doors to welcome another season, but I haven't heard anything about it so far

I liked the series and I was dissapointed that it was only 11 episodes long. I honestly wished that it didn't leave you in such a cliff hanger type of ending. There were so many thing that weren't explained and on top of that, there was the part at the end with the ferryman. A second season that explained it all would be greatly appreciated. Overall though, I truly enjoyed the series. ^^

Omfg, did we just see the ferry man in his actual attire? So hot, lol. So, it's finally over. We didn't get to see the Grim Reaper in action, also the committee. WTF IS THE COMMITTEE?

So, the pink haired golem died. Too bad T__T, I really liked her. Damn that bastard for shooting her in the head! AND WTF, DOCTOR GOT DEFEATED JUST LIKE THAT? WITH A FREAKING ANTIDOTE?! WOW.

2nd season? I doubt it. But there are like tons of stuffs which they haven't explained. Overall, 7/10.

Crap ending to a crap anime. Giving this a score of 4 is generous, considering how badly executed the entire series was. Poorly animated, bland and stereotypical characters... even if they did another series, I seriously doubt I would bother to watch it. Seeing how they lost out already on the first season, something miraculous would have to happen in second season to warrant my attention.

Hmm yeah, there were definitely some likeable characters -- they do grow on you, and some really were great characters. However the series itself... I suppose I would rate it a 7. Nothing really wowed me, but it was enjoyable and never too boring or anything.

This episode... Well I think it was a good ending to the series! Everything was more or less expected, but it was still entertaining and nice to see at least some things get wrapped up, even though there are, obviously, loose ends... (Definitely left that way on purpose though.) So yep. Good ending, relatively good series. Enjoyed it but wouldn't watch it again! 7/10

Neh..I didn't want it to end anyway, this is rather confusing. Ferryman looks hot when he takes off his eyeglasses and unties his hair.

I guess they're leaving the rest it for the manga anyway.

I'd rate it a 7/10 overall. I won't say I didn't get bored in the middle. But it was alright, it excited me near the end, but I didn't like how it ended leaving too many gaps and too much unanswered questions.

Onto the OVAs~
