| From the MAL image for this show, I would have never guessed Hampnie was only a supporting character. That kind of sucks, his character was rather interesting. Also, this feels a bit too early for something like this....wonder how the rest will play out, and I hope to find out if he really was immortal or if it was just a plot hole... |

| I was underwhelmed with the first couple of episodes, but this one was really good. I will continue to watch. |
| so sad she lost both her parents now :( had to bury him too that's brutal i cried D: |

| Totally overwhelmed and greatly confused. Guess his immortality was cancelled due to his wish being full filled which makes no sense but ok. Not sure if i should drop the show on good terms or continue... |
| I think this is an excellent example of a big emotional moment that suffered due to the build up. It is a good idea to have a big reveal or a shocking moment during or before an emotional scene, but that should never detract from the scene, which is what happened here. This might not have affected some of the audience, but by looking through the responses above i gather that the death scene was not well explained, causing the audience including myself to stay hung up on death of an immortal. The anime did give you enough information for you to make a educated guess as to why he died, but figuring that out severely detracted from the emotional moments of 'father-daughter day' and the burial scene; moreover, Ai was half explaining that he came back as a deceased during these scenes, giving the audience other things to think about besides touching moments. This doesn't mean i did not feel an emotional tug, because the animation and music came together well for the burial scene. However, to me it felt awkward because I was not immersed into the story. Ai's crying felt awkward as well, but if the build up had focused my attention on these scenes and provided proper immersion I probably would have been brought to tears. This of course is just one opinion. |
| But that's just one opinion. |
| I thought he was immortal *confused* |
| I could tell by the first epi, I liked this anime. Hambert was an insta-fav. (Badass mysterious albino.) ... ... .. . Oop scratch that.SPOILER. He's dead /_ ALL TEH FEELS. right there. And ironic way to discover your child....truth be said. <3 My heart forever lives the piggy back ride. -ktimetogodieinmyfeels- |
| He hated the dead more than anything But for one day he gave up his ideals so ai could have memories.... My blood pressure can't take this :( |
| dem those ninja cutting onions , ffffeeeelllsss !! life on the pppppplllaaannneeett !!! |
| What an amazing series!! Everything is perfect 5/5 |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Great episode. That was really nice of him to stay with Ai for a little while and give her some memories with her father. I thought the Huntsman was gonna be the father but I guess not. Really sad that AI had to bury her parents. But that's the way it should be. The children should bury their parents and not the other way around. I wonder where this show will head next. I don't know where it can go. It kinda felt like it ended. Really great episode. |
| Manly tears they have been shed T-T |
   |
| What the..... I thought he would stick till the end.. It seems not. |
 |
| So Hambart was looking for Hana and a way to die. Well, he found Hana's daughter and also a way to die happy. (T_T) You will be missed Hambart! Or Kizuna Astin. Lol, he just kicked Ai off a bridge. Hooray, Julie and Scar appeared. Ai finds out the secret of the village and she fights. As of now, Ai wants to save the world. |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |

| Loving this show thus far, looking forward to see where it goes from here. Cnon said: RavenWish said: How did he die if he is immortal? That's what I'm wondering too Remember he explained his theory? God answered humans' most common wish, thus making them unable to die. Then when they wished to die he gave them a way to do it. When Hambart got strong on the fated Sunday he wished that it'd last forever - thus he gained immortality. Later he wished to be able to die happy, leaving beloved ones behind. So when he was overjoyed by the news of his daughter he fulfilled the criteria, thus he was allowed to die. Seems like God just finally decided to answer prayers. |

| died happy with a smile in his face :') |
| Dropped the show after watching the episode end, I was so fucking sad... |

| This is really sad.. |

| Hmm only ep 3 and man-eating Hamburger-san's role is already over ;( Didn't expect this with only 3 episodes in 9.9/10 this ep cuz tearjerker felt rushed. |

| Wow. That was insanely fucking intense. So it turns out he actually was the father. I bet he was killed so many times that his own memories of her got a bit hazy, that's why he didn't immediately put the pieces together. But he did end up remembering. Then he fucking dies. What the hell? How did he suddenly lose his immortality? I'd guess that his true desires or wishes were somehow fueling his immortality, and then when it was completed when he learns that Ai really is his daughter and he got closure on Hana, then everything was fulfilled. But that still seems absurd to pull out the immortal card, then take it away the very next episode. How about the other bomb though, the villagers being dead the entire time!! How in the fuck is that even possible? Looking back, it was clear that one dude in the field in episode 1 was clearly already pretty messed up, but some of them seemed super normal. Like wayyyy too normal. Their deaths needed a bit more explanation. Some of them you could tell they were dead a while; the nasty infected gashes, the bloody eyes, but like her foster parents looked completely normal. People still had the ability to work the fields, the guys trying to kill daddy were able to run and use guns. - So when did they all die? They said that the living dead would eventually lose it physically and mentally, so you're telling me the dead can last over 12 years? - Were they all dead before Hana died? It almost seems like it. Because if people stopped dying 3 years before Ai was born, then that means that nobody should've died naturally afterwards. I could see maybe 1-2 people died in accidents or something, but they shouldn't really be affected by sickness anymore right? So how did all 47 of them die and stay alive that long? And if some died before others, they didn't start showing symptoms of decay? Did Hana just not bury anyone as a gravekeeper? My mind is literally blown by this right now. I really cant comprehend how that entire village was nothing but dead people. |
| The reason why I started to watch this show was because of Kizuna because I thought he's one of the main characters. I was really shocked that his role ended quickly (like Mami Tomoe from Madoka). I wished that the arc extended for one more episode so that we can really delve into his character. |
| P.S. English is not my first language. I'm sorry if I would cause any misunderstandings. |
| Huh, Hambert died?! Wait, wasn't he supposed to be an immortal and one of the main characters?! How can this be?! I'm so confused and sad at the same time.. I feel all the emotions about to explode. o(╥﹏╥)o I wish we got a few episodes of Ai and her father connecting. |
| I shed a tear. Great art, very likeable characters, great atmosphere, lovely dialogue... I'm liking this anime more than I thought I would. |
 |
| Yeah I dropped it right after this. I was so mad. He was an amazing character so now I don't care. Such bullshit. |
| That ending just felt... really bizarre to me. I didn't have time to learn enough about the characters to feel any real attachment to them and I honestly didn't understand neither Ai's nor Julie's feelings towards Hambert enough to justify their behaviour and reactions. Nonetheless, I am oddly hooked. |
 |
| You gotta be kidding me |
nyansensei said: first of all, WTF (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ I read most of the manga that was updated so I didn't know THAT HE WOULD EVENTUALLY DIE. LIKE IN THE THIRD EPISODE IN. no but ssrsly, I was thinking he'd be a character that would stick around until the end of the series protecting Ai and doing cute daddy shit BUT ISN'T IT A BIT TOO SOON TO KILL OFF THIS PRECIOUS BBY （ ＴДＴ） this episode was sad and unexpected, it from 'awwwwwwwwwwwwwww' and 'yesssssssssssss' to really quickly 'WTF NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO' Agreed. I was aware something was going to happen on episode 3, something unusual (just look to the replies this thread has versus the rest of the series), and well damm. It got me a bit emotionated there, I didnt expected him to die. |
 |
| Well shit at first i was really sad even tough too me it was dumb bullshit, but after some thinking i get it, he died around his "friend" i guess and his daughter so being happy, but that mean that if she hadn't said she was his daughter and let him die normally he would have com back. That's quite the loss, the character was super cool and i was sure he would be here t'ill the end of the show, but after understanding the reason of his death even tough it was maybe quite quick, only 3 episode, i think it was amazing, simply beautiful ! But i still think it could have been better if she didn't say she was his daughter, so he die "not happy" and come back, then she tell him and they can spend time together t'ill he actually get critically injured toward the end of the show and here die happy with his daughter and friend around him, i think that would have been better. Anyway there is some chance that his death serve a purpose to the plot so all my "i would have preferred that" bullshit is worthless. |
| It's sad that Ai only knew her father for a few days |
| Sasuke or Kaneki I can't decide |
| All aboard!!!! the feels train that has no breaks |
 |
| So, he just dies ... in, like, the 3rd episode? Why even bother continuing the story? |
 |
| I know this has 12 episode; my God I already satisfied with episode 3 and I have 9 more episode to watch. Fucking Genius |
