| Holy shit one of the most eventful final episodes I have ever seen R.I.P Loli Blanket and Chtholly :'( |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Ending was sad. The lizard guy scene indicated Chtolly and Neph are dead, but the great sage's pulse tracing device indicates two pulses, meaning Willem and Neph is alive, and Chtolly dead. But even her death seems vague, after she defeated the beasts, she walked back to willem. 7/10 for me. |
| Chtolly died standing on that last scene. As you can see in that scene with Souwong at the end, there's two echoes, so the other two are alive, but stranded on the surface. The scene was Chtolly's birth(more exactly when she was 'discovered" by the peoples of the orphanage rather than her exact birth tho), those two are previous faeries who died already. That scene was shown right after her death scene due to the words said to her at the moment. Also, before it happens, I'll suggest to be careful with any following answer from someone else, and especially avoid reading kosamja's answer (that will probably come sooner or later in this thread) as his posts are basically massive spoilers that spoil 10 times more than what peoples asked for (his posts keep getting moderated). Well, if you still want to read them, at least you know what you're signing for if you do, now. ;) |

| I havent read the novel so Im not sure if the ending is anime original or not, but I dont think Chothly(did I spell her name right?) is dead because what's the point of intruducing a "god" character and just killing her off without giving much details about her past. They already set the ending for a second season if by any chance it does get one. Maybe I'll read the novel too if I get the time. |

| I almost cried this episode. Honestly I wanted them to be together but knew it couldn't happen. I enjoyed this anime and I'm hoping for a 2nd season. Here's a poem/quote by Chtholly that touched me https://myanimexp.blogspot.com/2017/09/the-clock-keeps-ticking.html |

| I gave it a 7/10 because it was fairly enjoyable to watch but am I the only one who didnt think this was "OMG BEST ANIME EVER"? Honestly the plot was a bit messy, there's a ton of tangents that are unresolved and a lot of stuff that just feels random and superfluous like Ctholy being a reincarnated God, where does that even play into things? Why does it really matter that the beasts were human? Where did they go with that and what is going to happen to the world next? It's like they were trying to build up a fantasy plot but in the end they were just like "fuck it lets just do a romance with lots of cool fight scenes". The visuals, fighting and romance were decent hence 7/10 but the substance was weak. |
| Me being satisfied with decent amounts of feels and a fair improvement in the last episodes, but also me ruing what could have been. Gonna write a review. 6-7/10 Trivial question- why Scarborough? |
| The story (and characters) showed potential at the beginning but slowly turned into something like the other thousands of light novels adaptation out there, as agendator put it in his review, "Problem is, the show couldn't decide whenever it wanted to be a dull light novel adaptation or a good story." I don't hate the moe aspect of the series, I don't mind certain cute quirks that the characters have, even if it's somewhat cliche but the story didn't do a great job not bringing moe into the gruesome part of the story, making it seem like the characters themselves do not take the situation seriously. The main character basically became this generic "im so strong and im so right" character which annoyed me the entire time in the latter part of the story. I totally disagree with agendator however on his romance assessment, Willem and Chtollo or however you spell her name have zero chemistry at all. It all seemed predestined that she was going to be the love interest by the end of the first episode, not as in narratively but strangely the person herself seems to be drawn to him almost immediately. The romance turned each individual into a worse version of themselves, without much of any development at all. The outcome of the pair was tragic/heartbreaking but the development itself was really poorly done. A show that could've been better but remained a generic light novel adaptation. The potential was there and I am definitely intrigued enough to want to know more about what happened and what is going to happen next but I know I am going to be annoyed by how the characters are being handled. |

lazyboy76 said: Nani.. man studios shouldn't go off on their own and alter the story without a really good reason. Nope, I have not read the LN. I did liked the beginning portion of the series, and the story elements in the rest of the series but the execution wasn't up to standard.those part doesn't even exist in the LN |

| I hate flashbacks fro mthe getgo that spoil way too easily, as well as predictability in stories. This was yet again an anime that had potential, yet fell short and focused on romance too much. Maybe if it had been longer than 12 episodes it could have ben more satisfying, maybe they wil just make a 2nd season. Either way, too late now. 5.5/10 * shrugs* |

It's like they were trying to build up a fantasy plot but in the end they were just like "fuck it lets just do a romance with lots of cool fight scenes". You'll have to read the novels (or hope for a second season) to have the answers to your questions. Yes, all those loose ends came into play. FatalGaze said: I though the story was pretty interesting but I wanted to know more about the beasts and Willem's past. That would be volume 4 of the novels. And random flashbacks before that. Willem's past was cool enough to be its own anime. |
| I don't how I missed this anime too, but anyway it was really worth to watch. I must confess the few episodes were a below seven but the first episode and this one made it shoot through the roof. Too bad Neph and Chtholly had to die but who is that blue haired baby in the end and what happened to Willem? Lots of unanswered question, really hoping for season 2. 9/10 for great plot, music, romance, animation and keeping emotional invested. |

| @Thompson84 I'll try to answer your questions. From my understanding (I might be wrong as it was a while since I watched this) humans were originally beasts. When the gods arrived they turned them (beasts) into humans. But humans became dangerous and so gods decided to eliminate them and created different kind of beasts to do the job. I don't know if the gods underestimated humans, but humans managed to win this war and slain the gods. But by doing so they turned back into beasts. So the beasts Wilhelm was fighting against, and the ones the leprechauns are fighting against, are different kind of beasts. Chtholly is not the only one to have Elq soul, all leprechauns have part of Elq soul. As for the last questions, Chtholly died because her time/energy source run out. And yes, Willem and Nephren survived. The last scene was a flashback to when Chtholly was born. |

Thompson84 said: Yes, that's how it works in this world. Some have more time, some less. Do all the leprechauns have a limited time on earth and they are all doomed to die before they reach adulthood? |

| second season PLEASEEEEEEE |
 |
| So what happened...? Still confused lol |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Wow, this anime was pretty good. I really regret not watching this sooner. (I know I'm extremely late for this) There better be a new season/sequel to be announce and get aired as soon as possible or riot! Anyway, I'm gonna rate this anime an 8 (or a 9?) score overall. |
| Haters always gonna hate. |
| This episode is by far the best of the series. I cried like a baby. This and the fist one are my favorites, if just the middle hadn't felt so forced I could have loved this. |

| Who are the two ladies at the end holding reincarnation of chtholly? Also what happened to Willem? Where did he went? |
| What an incredibly sad finale. I was well prepared for this but still it was hard to see Chtholly and Willem's final moment together. I felt like she was such a tragic heroine as she never really knew about the kiss she shared with Willem. But Chtholly's last words were words of gratitude for Willem so it can be implied that she truly became the happiest girl in the whole world right before her death. :') As for Willem, finally we got such likeable main male character in anime but he had to bear the cross of not being able to save the person who was the dearest to him. He is such a tragic hero. I am not sure if he is dead or not given the pulses shown. Those could be his and Ren's pulses. But regardless, his situation whether he's dead or not, was incredibly cruel. Well, I am gonna give the anime an 8/10. It handled the romance and tragedy much better than most of the anime out there with one of the most lovable couples in Chtholly and Willem. skyfaller2 said: Who are the two ladies at the end holding reincarnation of chtholly? Most probably Lakhesh and Collon if you notice their conversation. Besides, their appearance is almost similar to those two. Also, they are two of the main heroines of the sequel novel as this endless cycle of tragedy likely goes on which is implied by the reincarnation of Chtholly. |

Chotholly died but was reincarnated. Willem lived but if you read the light novel... You know... After losing Chotholly... |
.
| Strong ending, empty but hopeful after seeing the very end. Really hope a second season gets picked up to finish the last two novels |
