| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ----------------------------------------  Ah this episode got weird. I think I'm seeing doubles, or rather "Tokakus". I think this is their second time since that one pool episode. Poor Nio. I'm actually going to miss her considering she brightens the gloom and doom atmosphere. Oh wait, she made it yay. What the fuck though, pretty much everyone is alive. I feel trolled |

I feel trolled there was no kiss dont say lies when there wasnt any i just saw the episode |
The last 5-10 minutes, even if were cute...  Anyway, AnR was a great anime!! |
| Was this a masterpiece of the comedy genre or am I watching Mai HiME s2? |
| Happy Ending! Will we have Akuma no Riddle season 2? |
 |
| The beginning blew my mind. WHAT ... Will come back when I have actually finished the whole episode, lmao. |
| Whattheheck, how did some of them even survive.. .___. |
| Proud mama and papa of Misha Yuuki* (02-01-2014 - 22-01-2014) Thank you for the wonderful twenty days you gave us. <3 One day we will meet again.. |
| yeah this was as bad as Danganronpa, maybe even worse.. |
 |
| such a let down , that ending screwed up all the serie for me |
| Very disappointed with that ending. That was a really cheap cop-out of the writing, in my opinion. I really wanted to love this show, but that really ruined it for me. If I hadn't fallen in love with a few of the characters as much as I did, I would've rated it really low. |
| So this is Kill me baby + Mai-hime after all...just when I start to take it serious... |
| WHAT!? This episode was plain and straight BS!! How some of them could even be alive? I don't know, it felt weird. When they were allowed to use the dragon balls and pull out a Krillin? Last bit was kinda sweet but it felt really anti-climatic. I would have been a lot happier if the ones that were supposed to be dead stayed dead. What a shame, since I was expecting something better. Still giving it a 7/10 because I kinda enjoyed the rest of the series. Let's just hope the manga doesn't pull up one of these and everything will be alright. |
| i had no subs so hardly understood anything,what happened when Haru got stabbed? really confusing episode guess 8/10 but i like happy endings. |
AliasAngel said: i had no subs so hardly understood anything,what happened when Haru got stabbed? really confusing episode guess 8/10 but i like happy endings. Well, if you don't have subs it's sure to be confusing... When she got stabbed the knife touched the bones and didn't pierced the heart. A BS theory... Apart from the first episode it was one of the worst anime this spring. |
 |
| Just a brilliant example how to ruin generally good series. |
| I dont even care if this ending was rushed/cop out etc. I'm honestly just glad all of them are alive! Including Hitsugi and Chitaru. Honestly even if the ending might seem a bit cliche I'm still happy nevertheless....<3 Also...bit disappointed there was no 'real' kiss between Tokaku and Haru, haha. |
  |
| I only liked this episode because of the graduation song, it made me shed a few tears even though the ending was crap. I thought most of them died, but I guess not.. |
| lol |
| Unlike some others, I wasn't particularly surprised or put off by the "happy" ending, as the show had clearly built up on the whole "not killing" thing. So, it would actually make less sense thematically for any of them to have died. That being said, I'm still not too happy with the end - I was just expecting it to turn out that way. I think this would have been better if it had been darker and characters had been dying. Still, not a bad series overall, but not that great either. However, we need a Nio OVA . . . |
| That was interesting. Weird to see how some of the girls are still alive even though I thought they were dead. |
 |
| What the shit is this? Titanium ribs, just pls, Hanabusa was already enough. I wish atleast one of them would have died, i mean Haru or Nio. In the end i was happy to see Sagae is doing well as a construction worker, she was the best of the class in my opinion. Anyways 7/10 for retarded ending. |
Sourire said: yeah this was as bad as Danganronpa, maybe even worse.. The difference is,AnR had everyone to survive in the end,in DR there were only 6 survivors and everyone else really died. |
| I'm conflicted. On the one hand, the ending was a total cop-out, but on the other hand, I'm a huge sucker for happy endings and got everything I wanted. Came for the yuri, stayed for Nio~su and Tokaku-san. Over the top, ridiculously stupid at times (two all too frequent staples of Japanese action series), but I still managed to enjoy it more than not, thanks to the lovely girls. Gonna be generous since I'm in a good mood: 6/10. |
| So in the end we only get "I love you" from Haru but she only said it in her heart. *sigh* I was anticipated for a little kiss in this last episode but they want to keep it as subtext as possible huh lol. Why not drop the 'Yuri' tag then. Well, i'm surprised that everyone is still alive. So glad to see Haruki again, I love her^^ Is it too much if i'm asking for a S2? |
| So,everyone is alive? That's so weird. When I checked the AnR Wikia weeks ago it said Kirigaya and her red-haired seme's status was Deceased,and now they are Alive. Did the anime had an influence to this? And if someone could tell me,the manga is still ongoing? Thinking of picking up the manga. |
| More forced drama and everyone was revived by magic, awesome. |

 Read my manga at http://tapastic.com/series/Strawberry-Succubus |
| Was a good episode except for the part about how everyone was still alive after everything. The show was about a class full of assassins and no one died in the entire show. Kinda missing the point here. Through the show though it was interesting but other than the main two characters, you never got a chance for anyone's development since they had really one episode per and then they were done. 6/10 |
| So basically one big dues ex machina? Is this in the manga or is this anime only ending bullshit? 7/10 I liked the action scenes and while the last few minutes were cute and did make me tear up it was just ridiculous how did that girl survive drinking a whole vile of poison? |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| LOL that ending... Whatever the series was still enjoyable for me and Ill just continue the manga |
| "Thus, the world is fulfilled by ___ " A:Forgiveness? What I don't understand is this battle was for heir to the Hive.... So if the "Queen Bee" is still alive is she still the Queen? If not how does she get her freedom? |

| People saying that the Tokaku at the beginning was not the real Tokaku are confusing me. So correct me if I'm wrong... but the Tokaku with the sword in the beginning is actually the real Tokaku.. and the Tokaku who saves Haru and claims that the Tokaku with sword is Nio... is actually Nio? I base this off the part where the Tokaku who pulled Haru away from sword Tokaku has the knife pass through her head and then Nio's weird markings flash.. And though not sword Tokaku continues to accuse sword Tokaku of pretending to be Tokaku, after not/sword/I/want/to/save/Haru Tokaku knocks sword Tokaku's knife away, not/sword/I/want/to/save/Haru Tokaku flashes Nio's teeth.... and then when she's clearly Nio (return of Nio voice) says "But I won't let you kill Haru!"... because the real Tokaku is actually attempting to kill Haru to prove that she can? And then real Tokaku stabs Haru to prove that Haru was not using the primer on her (or doesn't possess that ability? because that's sound proof!)... and then cries when she is "proved right"... but then the magical titanium saves the day... Did I get something horribly wrong, or is that pretty much what happened? I found the whole primer thing to be a pretty stupid idea... same with Nio just screwing around with them... and of course I agree that it's pretty ridiculous how they all survived. Still I wouldn't say it was an absolutely terrible series. Maybe I just prefer a poorly written happy ending to a poorly written sad one. I didn't really expect much from the ending anyway. |
| Wow, that's kind of a screwed up ending. Well it's a happy one, but it's pretty much of a screwed up one. WTH did everyone survived, I need some answers. Ah well the fight was pretty entertaining, well in most of the fights in the previous episodes. Also I pretty much forgot a couple of characters backstory when they all appeared at the end. Not enough Yuri in the series tbh XD. 6.5/10 (Guess 7 should work) ending was pretty much meh and not enough character backgrounds, but it was a good series overall. |
| This anime pretty much ruined the last chance it had to redeem itself. My god everything about this anime is so retarded, it's such an insult to its audience's intelligence. Well at least this train wreck is finally over |
 |
HARU HAS TITANIUM RIBS! XD LMFAO HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA NIO IS A SHAMAN!  EVERYONE LIVES :) BUT I THINK BANBA'S SHINYA HALF DIED AND THE MIHARU SIDE SURVIVED! GOOD MUSIC AND CHARACTERS BUT A BIT RUSHED AND NOT ENOUGH GOOD ACTION SCENES 8/10 |
 |
| I can't believe this. The series itself wasn't TOO bad. Some of the cast I absolutely adored, but come on. The loli & the knight shouldn't have survived. Not after that incredibly dramatic death scene they went through. Haru & Nio surviving was asspull material. A series like this shouldn't have had a happy ending. I like happy endings, but, assassins out to kill people =/= happy ending material. Bittersweet wouldve been MUCH better. 5/10. So much disappoint. Being nice with 5. |

| So this show ended exactly where it started. 6/10, at least it was somewhat fun to watch |
 |
| Akuma no Riddle, where falling off a sky scraper, drinking poison or getting stabbed through the chest won't possibly kill anybody. |
