| Goodbye Isla! The last moment was touching and Kazuki's expression was the most relatable. Also I loved Yasutaka at the end, helping Sherry, which isn't surprising given that he's probably my favorite. I did expect this to happen but I was hoping it would be a bit more sad, like having everyone gather around in the office or something like that. Nevertheless I still cried a bit and it was a nice ending. However that 9 months training that happened right after felt weird. I still wish there was more after the ending. The new Giftia was presented in a weird way but there's no way that's Isla or a new Isla because of Tsukasa's reaction. Overall it was nice, the comedy and drama were too much in some moments but it still ended in a good way. |

Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| Holy shit that was so sad I felt it. They prolonged it so much so you can feel all the memories they made together and in the end its time to say goodbye. I guess at the end they brought her back again but without her memories? who knows 8/10 |
| Phenomenal last episode, and paced very well despite the series itself being quite short for the premise. The ferris wheel scene is one of my favourite anime scenes as a whole. This anime had quite a few flaws; like mostly irrelevant side characters, and a lack of follow up on plot points and world-building details. On the other hand, Isla was handled well as a character, and all the scenes intended to be emotional or thoughtful delivered. Said flaws weren't egregious or anything, so I still found it enjoyable. Like a lot of other anime I watched before, I wish this was longer. Balancing slice of life and plot like this is tough within thirteen episodes, especially with the scope of the world in this series. |

| I respect the heck out of the writing team for ending it the way they did. However, at the cost of making a ballsy ending, it just feels unfulfilling in many different ways. Thus, I feel very conflicted as to how I feel about Plastic Memories as a whole. In the end, I rated it a 7/10. The buildup is great, and I love the interactions between Tsukasa and Isla (albeit, they're shorter than I would like). And yet I'm not exactly sure what message I'm supposed to derive from the anime. If it's the old "loving and losing is better than never loving at all", then that's great and all, but what does the handshake in the final episode represent? Is it supposed to symbolise Tsukasa moving on? The concept of "moving on" is touched very minorly when Isla mentions about Tsukasa finding someone new after she's gone, but I wish they explored this side of love more. "Moving on" doesn't resonate with me at all, so I suppose that's why the ending bugs me so much. I suppose most people will want to find someone new after their partner is deceased, but that feeling doesn't resonate with me. |
| Damn this show made me cry...you can say i'm sensitive but hell poor Isla was so dear and moving if i ever got a daughter i might consider given her this name. This finale was so beautifully sad and touching, i loved that anime. |

| An emotional rollercoaster of an anime. This anime had the best MC I've ever seen with him being very reasonable and courageous. This anime asks many philosophical questions about fulfillment and how people would respond to knowing someone you know will disapear. 8/10 |

| Echo'ing what everyone else has already said. The ending was really sad, even if it was expected. I think more time for the main couple to build up chemistry would have both been nice to see and also have made the ending more impactful. One thing that keeps hitting me is that it has to be a very difficult work environment. Not only are you helping others deal with the loss of their loved ones but every few years, one of the staff members is going to die. What would that be like for the human staff? How would the Giftias left feel? Would have been interesting for the show to touch on that. |
| i knew what was coming and still ended up crying like a baby. Now this is a proper greek tragedy. |

| ohh iam emotional as hell .For the last two episodes alone this deserves a 10 ,keeping the the itty gritty overall analysis aside.A show which gets more appreciating once we age.The contentful smile of her as she guided him through her last day was so beautiful.And Tsukasa kept being a Man right up untill the end .It was very evident from the prior episode that it would be going in this direction but it still it left me awestruck that it made a grown ass 30 yr old shed some tears. Hope they get reunited once again ~ 10/10 |
