| 10/10 from me, I'm waiting for an OVA since I think the ending should has a closure episode or meet up episode. |
| This was a really nice anime! Morale of the story, time is only precious because it’s limited... I really felt that with this anime, especially with the last few episodes. Irozuku wasn’t perfect, there were a lot of plot points that I wanted addressing — the yellow fish, more backstory with the mother, more backstory with Yuito, also the romance bits seemed at times contrived. However, they did the execution of the ending quite well, I’m glad she went back to her own time after gaining some valuable life changing memories with her friends. I’m a bit sad we didn’t get to see the old members in the future, perhaps they all passed away which was why she visited a grave, which is quite a shame. I also wish we saw a scene of her trying to reconcile with her mother. But all in all, pretty good! |
| It was great when Kohaku said that it all was in the destiny because she received Hitomi when she was young, the typical time paradox. Because if not, what she did would be CRIMINAL. Send her granddaughter to the past without her consent. Im just sad for Yuto who died virgin and drawing for kids. But by his personality, he would stay that way even if never met Hitomi, and giving up of drawing. The craziest thing is that all the club members and Kohaku probably keep the friendship for life and was paying attention when hitomi was born, but they knew they could not interfere to try to bring more joy to Hitomi's childhood. |

| are you sure about that? |
had to go back to ep1 because they looked familiar and sure enough  |
| Disappointed because they didn't even try to meet again in 2078. (No, in fact they should've been around her since she was born. Imagine the twist, all the familiar faces she met since she was little were the friends she made back then...) That's the least they could've done. The most would've been Hitomi traveling back and forth for a while to visit (let's say once a year), since she has huge magic capability (walking on water without magic powder in super early episodes, etc). Them separating like that and never seeing each other again is more than sad. Catastrophic. Kohaku is basically the only one getting to see her again. It's unfair. The scene with the mutual love confession followed by the irreversible, absolute, farewell, is devastating. It reminded me of a certain scene of Mawaru Penguindrum. Fuck. I have to not cry ;_; Still gave 8/10 because I'm weak against this shit. With a proper reunion it would've been a 10. |

| bruh |
| bittersweet as expected. I aways absorb the sadness over the happiness on this kind of thing, so i don't like it a whole lot, but i would recommend this! Even if it makes you sad, still good. I think. |
I think I don't know wtf I'm doing. Maybe. Probably. |
| Fantastic finale, Made the journey worth it in the end. 6/10 |
| As far as the grave Hitomi visited, I interpreted it in that when Hitomi would discuss her mother in Ep.8 and how she was the first in the family line who couldn't use magic but Hitomi grew up to develop skills in magic and how she 'left' her was metaphor for her committing suicide because she felt she failed her family after discovering her own daughter could use magic but this may be a slight reach considering she phrases it more as if she moved away and kinda wouldn't make too much sense considering she would most likely be happy to see her daughter develop in magic although one could argue she was overcome with doubts of her own being if she couldn't do magic and her daughter could, potentially suffering from a lack of belonging due to that realization I'd like to think the show has a lot more impact interpreting it in that way as it makes the trauma that Hitomi was experiencing that much heavier |

| I did like the ending, it didn't feel sad to me... Lots left for imagination as well. Really liked this series, would be in my extended favourites if I'd ever made one. Hitomi was so cute! The animation was beautiful as well. 9/10 :) |
| ~Where's Gnasty Gnorc? I'll torch him!~ |
| So that's why Hitomi can't see colors because she doesn't have feelings of happiness, when she feels happy, she can see colors. And now I wonder how Aoi looked when he is old |
 |
| Wow... What a bittersweet ending, I expected as much, but it still hit the mark. |
 |
| Solid finale for a solid show. When I remember Nagi I definitely feel a shorter format streamlined the drama, everything was tight and focused here, more efficient if you will. Good stuff. |
 |
| i knew it, that guy was hitomi grandfather xD |
 |
| I love this, such a beautiful ending. To think that Yuito was already helping her in her childhood, surprised me. I was happy and sad with the ending, and without a doubt I really love this. |
 |
Is that suppose to represent the grandma's age? |
| The ending got me thinking about grandma's frustration of not being able to save her daughter which she clearly expressed regretting. She was not skilled enough or had the time (wait for 60y) to gather quality ingredients. Further the moment when her grand-daughter express her desire to look for her mother together felt heart warming. |
 |
| I really loved the ending, the picture book was a excellent goodbye letter for Hitomi, the only thing I would want is to have a glimpse at what all their lives are now, it would be nice, but either way I still give this series an 8/10 |
| A pretty good ending to a pretty good anime. I'm glad we got a confession. Almost thought we weren't going to get it for a while there. One thing I'm disappointed about is we didn't get to see everyone in the future meeting Hitomi again. Like a short scene where they all gather together at Kohaku's house for a reunion on the day they knew she was going to go to the future and back would've been really nice. Would've loved to see if Shou x Asagi and Kurumi x Chigusa happened, especially the former. And I assume the letters Asagi mentioned were somewhere in the time capsule, but it would've been nice to see that too. Like letters Asagi wrote over the years. And whose grave is that? It's probably not her mom's, and from her tears and just from the story it really points towards Yuito... it's so sad that he died before he could meet Hitomi again ;-; And looks like Kohaku married the guy from the magic bookstore. Kind of saw it coming. Was expecting some sort of reaction from Hitomi when she met him for the first time in the past, but the fact that the scene even exists is quite a tell. Just interesting. Also saw the Yuito storybook coming from when she said there was a special storybook that she loved when she was little (and I think she mentioned that she could see colours only in it?). Overall 7/10. Felt like some things could be better, and sometimes it just misses the mark a bit from where it's trying to hit emotionally but it was overall enjoyable. |
 |
| Should've at least had a goodbye kiss but overall this anime been too damn good. Hitomi going back is basically an eternal loop that is meant to happen for Hitomi to see colours. Love the concept! |
| Seems like a fitting ending. Bittersweet. |

| Cried a lot throughout the last episode ;_; |
| Re-watching I don't remember anything about the plot, but I remember that I didn't cry when I watched it for the first time, so I re-watch everything with zero expectations and, hell, now I cried a lot. I already watched the last episode few days ago because I was curious and I cried, now I can finally truly watch it and I cried again. Totally heartwarming and bittersweet. The story theme and concept, the animation's compositions, and the music... everything about this anime is just simply beautiful. So, about this last episode. I think Hitomi visited Yuito's grave and not her mother's grave. To remember that they can't even meet in the future... that's sad as heck (gosh I may cry again). Kohaku's husband aka Hitomi's grandfather might me that guy from Yanagidou's Magic Bookstore since he looks similar. I'm giving it a solid 7/10 at first, but now it got 7.5/10 from me. Though, I'll increase it to 8/10 with the plus point from the nostalgic feelings I got while re-watching it. I adore it. |
