Did anyone else notice that in the end, when Rin turned into an angel/god, Mimi didn't get all horny like she should have in the face of an angel. Technically, Rin turned into an angel, so Mimi should have been all over her right?

If anyone has an explanation for this I'd love to hear it.

I never really thought about it too much, and it's been a while since I've watched it...

Perhaps as Rin became the new Guardian, she actually became a real angel, while male guardians are just labeled as "angels", like how Rin explained the origin of the name because they had wings to resemble angels, but they really weren't. Either way, the physical additions weren't the same so I would assume it was something along those lines...

Sorry, I'm no help. this is the second time you made this thread I think so I thought you'd be lonely. >w<

I thought it made sense. I finished it about a month ago.

I just didn't pay much attention to the whole 'addiction' thing since I was focused on what they're saying and how they ended it.

I guess that Rin has turned into a true angel.

I like HawthorneKitty's theory though.

Don't look too much into the anime. It was an ending that really showed how the protagonist was very inconsistent. One episode, she would be strong and confident and the next she would be some submissive slave. The ending portrayed as a "caring mother" which is absolutely ridiculous.

Agreed. Though i want to see that girl(whatever her name is) turns into immortal too. And more episodes.

O_O
You're right... I haven't noticed that because I was too confused about something else. How did she become a guardian anyway? I really didn't catch that.

But yeah, you're right.
Okay, I don't wanna spam so I'll try to explain that. Er, somehow.
Um, maybe she became the complete opposite? Because Apos started blushing so maybe she became something dangerous for angels. Not for the immortals.
Crapy explanation, I know.

I had the same idea only I didn't know how to explained it.But I say she became more powerful than angels but then Mimi should gone all over her but she didn't,which means something else to me I want more of this show!!Or maybe an OVA. i understand the ending now,Rin is an immortal angel that's why Apos blushed.

She become guardian and not a angel, She can't become angel becouse she is a women.
The real world is past the virtual world is future.

Oh yeah, I didn't really think much about that. Seeing more Rin x Mimi would've been great....

Although I think Rin had her wings folded by the time Mimi brought Laura's head, which is why her angel side didn't affect Mimi.

YES! EXACTLY MY THOUGHTS ON RIN after finishing this series! She was so strong in the beginning... losses her memories.. gets her memories back... then you would think she would start kicking ass again but all of a sudden she became so weak

Not even close. Her voice (in the sub) is always motherly and caring, and the only time she's helpless is when angels are around.

This is called being multi-dimensional. Although, I guess if you watch a lot of anime you may not be used to it.

Just because it's multi-dimensional doesn't mean it's enjoyable to watch. I believe Rin already had enough depth as a character in episodes 1-4 without the writers needing to put her into situations where she's reduced to a whimpering mess for a solid 75 percent of her screentime. Not every character in fiction needs to be incredibly complex, and there are dozens or even hundreds of other anime that I could watch if I wanted multi-faceted characters; anime that do a much better job of portraying these types of characters than Mnemosyne. It is my opinion that Rin's character was almost totally ruined by the choices the writers made with episodes 5 and 6, enough to make me regret even watching the show to begin with, even though I quite enjoyed episodes 1-3.

My interpretation is that her personality shift had to do with the memories thing. It made it pretty clear that when she gets completely obliterated, her memories get messed up. After going through the turbine her memories got all screwy, yeah she started coming back, but then got turned to ash, totally obliterating her again. When it briefly shows her first form in feudal times, I think that's her true personality, same with her in the final episode. I think her personality changed due to the hundreds of years of living, fighting, killing, being killed; basically got wiped clear. She might've began remembering things (such as the characters); but that wouldn't exactly bring back all of experiences. So basically, she reverted back to her original self, a version that the show didn't start with; which is likely why some feel there was continuity issues.

That's because the whole anime is a torture porn fanservice with very little plot or substance, take away the torture porn fanservice and replace the lusty characters with ones that never show their feelings and everything is just talk, talk, talk with a little action here and there, this anime loses 99% of its appeal. In fact, even as I watched it like it is, I didn't enjoy it at all. I was waiting and hoping for the time when it will get interesting and everything will start making sense, but it just ended in a very stupid way, like Naruto Shippuden - with retarded space aliens. How can you start with ninjas and end with aliens? Same is here - start with some immortal women and end with some interdimensional crap about angels and Biblical motifs? The overall story and idea behind the anime or manga or novel or whatever it first was is so stupid and immature. It makes me feel like the creator never evolved past the mental and emotional age of 14 years old and this was his dirty mind trying to create something of substance, but failing miserably.


The biggest problem with the anime/story is that it's taking itself very seriously and this is where it fails. I've seen so many animes with such stupid plots, stupider than Mnemosyne and just because they aren't taking themselves seriously, it works, you can go along with the stupidity and have fun watching it. But when you make your protagonist to be a good looking chick that has a cool attitude at all times, then your story cannot help but take itself seriously.
