Rushed ending is rushed. With only one ep to go, I didn't think they'd finish it anyway, 'cause still so many questions unanswered.. only hope there will be second season eventually....

But the fighting scene really was rushed. They left like 15 for them to travel to Sabrie and talk to Oz's dad, so of course it was rushed >___>

BTW, does anyone know the name of that song that was sung during the whole last battle scene? It was really nice. Was it lacie with lyrics?


It's "Every Time You Kiss Me" by Emily Bindiger, can't wait to hear it completely when OST 2 comes out.

Lacie with lyrics was amazing. <333
The episode? Meh. It was rushed and these last two eps were the only time in the whole series I was bored as hell. They shouldn't have branched off from the manga like that, bad move.
I'd give it a 10/10, but the end was just... T___T I'm tempted to still give it a 10 just for the amazing music though...hmmm.
I think I'd give it a 9.5, rounded down to 9 since you can't have .5's on MAL D:
& now for off to start the manga~

I had to reread...but yeah, you're right x___X I want my Gil development D:
Though the first half of the episode wasn't bad.
Overall, not a bad ending to the series, somewhat open so there's a chance for a second season (yesplz)

No, Gil knew too. Gil tried to stop him from looking. And if you recall, Gil also stopped Oz from killing his father in the beginning and got slashed himself. It was the big mystery of who Gil recognized during the ceremony.

But you have to remember that you should never compare the two (manga & anime) directly. They are two different mediums. The anime is based off the manga and not supposed to be identical. It costs far less money to write/draw things in a book than it does to animate them. ~_^

This series started off really good and continued so trough the majority of episodes, though these last few have really been lacklustre to say the least.

They feel extremely rushed and unconnected at times, it's like they just lost the will to try and only wanted to finish it.
This last episode definitely shows it, first off it starts like nothing have happened from the previous episode. We're jumping from one event to the other, there is never no real emotions or scenes that makes you go "ah".

And the whole "end fight" and father confrontation was just meh...

And what's up with the shitty animation?
Looked like someone who just started as a anime artist drew most of the stuff.

Very disappointing ending on an overall good show =/

I honestly didn't like the ending, they rushed things to much..
I did enjoy the animé in general, and I do hope there will be a second season.

Might sound stupid but i have a question..
In the last episode.. You've heard near the ending the song "melody" but vocal.
My question is,, what is the song called? Really would love to have it. :S

- Nvm found the song name in one of the previous posts.

Exactly. In a way, it's probably better to see the anime first before reading the manga. That way you could still appreciate your experience with the anime while enjoying the manga's (better) story. :)

I think the anime is fantastic, so if the magna turns out to be even better I wouldn't mind that at all. :) However, even if the magna turns out to be a million times better I can't see that changing how I feel about the anime - it would still be excellent in its own right with strengths a manga can't have.

Being a manga reader, the show remained very faithful to the material up till episode 22, i still have hopes for a sequel but you can hardly call this an ending. Its still getting a 10 from me because i enjoyed it a tremendous amount, Im annoyed i didn't get to see echo's revelation though.

i agree with most of you guys..

the ending seemed really rushed.. as if it was done overnight...

and so, i'm hoping they'd do a second season, which i also hope would follow the manga...

i remember in Negima, which was also done by XEBEC, starting from Episode 23 the storyline was suddenly changed...

the final episode looked open-ended, but all the things that happened since Episode 23 were more or less contradicting to the of the manga.. and so, the story was ruined entirely...

well, hopefully XEBEc won't do the same abomination to Pandora Hearts... and they'd push through to a second season...

So how much of the information (not the events, jsut the information) is canon?

I still think PH Brotherhood would be rediculous, but I definitely like the idea of season 2 ignoring the last 3 episodes. Weak ending, but otherwise solid series. 9/10

I THINK there will be a season 2. They can't just go off leaving the story just like that. And this episode makes you expect there is a next episode, if you don't know that this is the last. You will just find out that it is really the last, somehow or the other.
9/10

Now then, at last I get to watch the last episode, been so busy lately >.>
Well, now, let's see what this episode holds.

Obvious thing was pretty darn obvious, about Gryphon, and Oz's father and stuff.
But then I lol'd, Break appears out of nowhere xD

Say.. I kinda find Oz looking more like Jack all the time, as in his appearance, but that might be just me ^^,

Anyhow.... This ending.. left me with more questions than answers O.o
I mean.. HUUUUUUUUH!? That's it?
Gotta read the manga for this one too then =.='

Usually, the final battle is filled with climactic tension and goes on for a lengthy amount of time, like half the episode (God forbid it goes on as a filler). But... episode 25's final climactic battle filled with tension? Lasted five minutes? Not even that long! Needless to say, I was slightly disappointed by that battle. Oz finally confronts his father and their battle lasts a mesely two seconds. Maybe it's just me. Alice is supposed to be the strongest chain of all, right? So I guess Gryphon would go down in one hit. Still... :(

Oh, how in God's name can someone miss a painting that huge? For serious.

I really think there should be a second season. Ending it right here? Don't know, it just doesn't feel complete to leave things off right here. I wonder, did everyone just forget about the clock on Oz's chest? It hasn't been mentioned in a while, but I might have just missed it. :| Anyway, I think a second season is necessary because the ending seemed a little open-ended to me.

I don't know how you can say that. Despite all my complaining about the last episode, this series was fantastic. Granted, the ending could have been better and I wasn't very satisfied with it, but overall I loved this series and thought it was great.

I'll have to read the manga now.

To conclude: I demand a second season.

If there's going to be a 2nd season it better not be as failtastic as the last few episodes.

I'm not sure if I would call it a sudden romantic interest, it's something I feel that has been building up since as early as episode 3, and is also noticeable in episode 15, perhaps the extremity of his "interest" was to appeal to the fans of the show before it ended, as opposed to leaving that as ANOTHER loose end(which, they failed to tie up in my opinion.)

Bah.. I hope this isn't the end of the anime, I have never enjoyed a show this much..
