| So it's over, huh. I got so many lulz out of this episode. But man, the first movie will come out in November. ;_; Takes too long~ |
  |
| It had so much potential. Maybe I was just expecting to much, but if I could go back I would have saved my time and stopped at around episode 3. 4/10 certainly won't be bothering with the movies. |
| The interesting thing would be if he got his memories back and his blank expression would be from a memory overload. If they did wipe his memories, they better explain it very clearly and redevelop the romance angle again. Anyway great cliffhanger ending. |

| HURRAH for naked neet army! 5/5 that missile scene was awesome! |
| awesome episode!! Did he say he was erasing is memories how do you guys know thats what he did o_O;; anyway love this anime! 10/10 |
     |
| Takizawa made it:) To become the Prince of the whole country - quite a responsible man he is. Can't wait for the movies. |
| "They're following us.." "Don't worry they're probably on interested in 2D' Series kept me Interested the whole way through even if it was a little slow at times. I can appreciate the story, I would have liked to see some of the other 12s stories more. |

 |
| Somehow personally I am disappointed. Didnt expect such a big cliffhanger ending... I dont like that at all. Therefore: 8/10 (would have given only 7/10, but the OP is such an amazing piece of art, its worth one point.) |
 |
| After finished the last 2 episodes I got something in my mind. What if we think of this anime as "A dead man creates the game and control it"? And when I begin to think of it that way there is something ring my bell, yeah Gumdam00. EoE -> Gundam00 TV anime -> TV anime 1st season Mr. Outside -> Aeolia Juiz -> Veda Akira -> CB The 1st movie -> TV anime 2nd season Akira became a king -> CB gained 00 Raiser Akira lost all of his money(Juiz) -> CB lost Veda The 2nd movie -> The movie A journey to learn the true about the game and the man behind the game? But don't get me wrong, I am not trying to compare the 2 anime and not by in any mean. I am only trying to say that they share some idea between the 2 anime. |

| cool ending, patriot missiles and F15 jetfighters saved the day ; ) It was funny as the group was surrounded by the Neets. I hadn't expected a nearly happy ending. but....... Wouldn't it be normal to attack the ships which fired the missiles ? well,who cares XD |

| That was without a doubt the most "epic" last episode I have seen in a while and I am using that totally overused word on purpose here. Totally cool scenes in this last episode. This was without a doubt the best anime this season and I am looking so forward to the movies. 9/10 because not everything was perfect plot-wise, but it's a good 9. |

People think that because in the end when his phone is making the same noise as in the beginning when he had his memories erased and he has a similar facial expression, that he must had done it again. I don't believe that though. |
   |
| Just thought of something. What if he had his memories restored? |
| Why would he want to pay to get his memories restored? he pretty much found out most of the important stuff already. |
| Meh, I don't know, I just don't see a reason for him to have erased his memory either. But I do believe something was done there. I wonder if he even had to pay for this one. What if it was something he had put on his phone, so he could do it freely without paying every time? |
| deus ex machina. should be new title of this anime. :/ |
| Great series, would fall somewhere on my top ten favorite series of all time but not exactly sure where. The preview said that there will be a worldwide release of the movies in November so I really hope I see it then and don't have to wait for a fan-subbed DVD rip several months later. |

| In the intro to the first episode Saki was flipping through her pictures and said the Akira was a prince, then she asked just how did he become a prince anyways? I guess at the end when he said he wanted to become king and Juiz told him that she would like to see him as a prince next time they meet we shouldve seen that coming at some point as an answer to her question. |
noteDhero said: Just thought of something. What if he had his memories restored? Quite an interesting thought. Restoring his memories contrary to erasing them once more would seem more logical to me, too. We can't say anything for sure without the movie, but I am also with the people saying that something happend to him during that scene. |

| I have a feeling that eden of the east will finish the 2 years streak of deathnote. Eden of the east movie i think will be LIVE. lol |
| PM me and let's be friends. |
| Theres only one thing i've to say about HNE. "BAH". 7/10 The Animation made it cool, but the plot comes first for me. Lets see hows gonna be on the movies. |
| Naked NEETs traumatize me for life. O.O |
 |
| What the hell is this? Messiah...? Is this a joke? |
 |
| Best spring anime without a doubt for me. |

| definitely a great Anime! Ending was good. Lots of questions left , can't wait for the movies. |
| Him getting back his memories instead of wiping them off again is exactly what I thought too. No matter how you look at it, a second memory-wipe is very pointless [especially after he ~probably~ got a step closer to saving the nation] Maybe he had lots of troublesome memories from his past he wanted to let go to be able to concentrate solely on the game. [I'm refering to the episode where he vaguely remembers his mother.] And after he is made king, and clears up the mess, his previous memories would get back to him. |
 |
| You know what would be funny? A Eden of the East Live action movie starring Jim Carey. I would love to see him all powerful once again. Make him be like god again. I would love to see him standing on the carousel and just saying "Bang!" a bunch of times. Though it was a huge cliffhanger I still thought of it as a good series and it makes me want to watch the movie more than ever. 5/5. I don't know if it bugged you but it did bug me: Episode 1 was just rofl. I mean.. real proper english in a Japanese anime.. I was like... I wonder if the Japanese people watching that understood what they were saying. They probably had to get a translator to sub it in Japanese XD. And then what the f*ck is up with the blue haired chick? wings!?! wtf!?!?! What was Akira's last wish? after he said he wanted to become King of the Country? He said "And another thing." Also what were they staring off to at the end? When Akira puts his phone in the girl's pocket and she starts to Narrate: "And just like that, He became a Prince. In this country with no kings..." great line! |

| This anime should be classified as Josei garbage. X_X |
Bladecatcher said: arimakenshin said: I don't even know why it's tagged as a Josei.This anime should be classified as Josei garbage. X_X Watch more anime and you'll completely understand how mediocre this anime is and targets the 18+ female crowd. Look at how blank the protagonist is and look at the ultra rich guy she manages to bag and regardless of how ordinary she is, he still wants her. That's Josei. |
| Even apart from the cliffhanger ending, I somehow feel like the series didn't quite live up to its potential. :( Still looking forward to the movies, though. |
| I'm relieved that Pants survived. And Johnny Hunter is still alive too. >_> I'm sad that Takizawa decided to brainwash himself again. Still wondering why he did so. Did he not think he could be a good king with Saki and his past? Liked how the prologue is finally explained. He didn't want to become king but someone had to it. And that's the sacrifice Saki talked about all the way in the beginning. I remember a few people thinking that meant he was going to die at the end. |
   |
| I'm satisfied with the series. For 11 episodes it really did feel like a full show. I'm delightfully pleased with it, 9/10 for me. I'm really excited for the movies and to find out what comes of the "game." And yes! Itazu is alive, wooo! |
 |
| well that explains where the NEETs went to, and also why. and the Japan is once agian saved by them, apparently if you get 20,000 NEETs thinking of saving a country, and give them internet access they can accomplish a lot |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| This episode is great because it have good ending and plot, but there’s few questions in that episode such as why he wipes his memory again. |
| I feel like they didnt have enough episodes to work out the story to its fullest, but still a great anime, and a enjoyable ride. Never liked cliffhanger endings but this was a good episode and a decent ending to a great anime. |
 |
| This was an awesome anime. 9/10. PANTIES LIVES! |
 |
| This was one awesome anime! A lot of questions were answered in this one last episode, though I still have a lot left so... I'm definitely looking forward to seeing the movie! Hopefully any loose ends will be tied up, although I thought this ending wrapped up the series pretty nicely. :D Perhaps the only thing that bugs me about this anime is that I thought it could have a few more episodes to really live out the full potential of the series, although I suppose the movie will cover that! I can't believe I thought Pantsu was dead... All that subcutaneous fat must have acted as a shield when the car hit him... XD'' I actually didn't notice that Akira brainwashed himself at the end, but everyone else is mentioning it so I guess it must be true... Anyway, I really enjoyed this series! |
| Nice ending! Quite a few funny moments too. ^^ He wiped his memory you all say? :( I didn't catch that but if thats the case...poor Saki. :( I wonder why he did it, I guess we'll find out in the movies. Can't wait. |

| When the f*** did he wipe out his memories? Didn't he ask juiz to make him "the King of this Country" with all the remaining money? But you die if you use all the money right? |
