| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- And finally, I am in love with the opening. Episode: http://www.animebullet.com/letter-bee-episode-17 |
| Episode was the special episode of Letter Bee before it aired. Letter Bee:Light and Blue Night Fantasy. It was mostly similar to the special, though it felt kind of rushed. Some extra scenes were added, like more backstory of Elena Bran and Largo Lloyd. I think the story of the pendant was changed, cant remember. One question: if Darwin didn't move from that spot for how many years, how does he eat? Maybe Lloyd brings him food? If he does, then he should have given Darwin a bath as well. But Lloyd is busy so he cannot take care of Darwin everyday. Then how?...Ah well minor details. A good episode though the special is better. "It says 'Darwin'..." "Darling?" "He doesn't look tasty, but I'm gonna make him steak before I make steak of Steak!" Niche FTW |
 |
| Even though I had watched the special before, the episode still made me cry. In comparison to the other filler stories, Darwin is the best one so far. Next episode looks interesting. Bees versus pigeons. |
 |
| haha that opening is growing on me. its pretty good. this episode i had seen before but it was still enjoyable. |
| =[ Elena X Lloyd.. (T_T) Gauche X Aria ( .?) Good episode. |
| LET JUSTICE BE DONE; THOUGH THE HEAVENS MAY FALL |
| I cried :C |
| ep.17 = special ep. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| no wonder...i was wondering why i had seen this ep b4 |
| The first op song "Hajimari no Hii" makes me feel like a start of journey and its exciting.The travelers beginning(OP),endless journey ahead(ED) The second op song "Love Letter no Kawari ni Kono Uta wo" makes feel comfortable and sweet.Its like a song of a traveler that try to bring happiness(love) to everyone(OP).I guess this will be a traveler's tale(ED). Old dog FTW ,age doesn't really matter i guess ^^ |

| I liked this episode. I haven't seen the special yet so I can't really compare. Lag ended up crying again but I guess it's understandable. |
| T-T so sad... Dawrin is like fry's dog from futurama They both waited for their masters thats why i feel like i watched this before -_-; |

 |
| Wahhh I cried like a baby!! D: I didn't like this episode.. it was way too sad. And Darwin is so cute that it made it even more sad.. *sigh* As for the opening.. I nearly fell asleep listening to it. The other one was so much better! Same thing goes for the ending, I usually sang along with it. But this new one... well it's not so bad I suppose. Over all I'm just not satisfied this week. |
| i started crying too...just too...sad...poor elena and darwin.. |

| this was a lot like the special they had, such a heartbreaking story |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |

| I too cried ;'( Such a good episode even though its quite similar to the special... |
 |
| It's kinda embarassing to say this as a boy, but i cried. Really. The first time i cried watching anime... correction... the first time i cried watching something. I was reeeally sad. I'm starting to like Tegami Bachi more and more. And the opening is absolutely lovely! ヘ（^＿^ヘ）(ノ^_^)ノ |
| Such a sad story. Felt awful for Darwin having spent much of his life faithfully waiting for his master who would never return. Letter Bee couples don't seem to have much luck... |

| And I cried again, just like I did in Letter Bee - Light and Blue Night Fantasy, it always reminds me of that one episode of futurama with fry's dog waiting for him it's entire life and im just ;___; but yeah, depresses me every time. |
| Recycling plots is bad. I fast-skipped all of it. Furthermore, the quality of the animation was WAY lower than the OVA. I'm sorry guys, this episode did not do the trick for me. |
| Again, the tragic story of Elena and Darwin is made really really tragic. Really got the viewers into it. RIP Elena and Darwin. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Wow, I'm sorry but just reairing the special? That's lazy even for this show. |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
Splitter said: Sorry but that is not a re-airing. It is a remake if I could say it.Wow, I'm sorry but just reairing the special? That's lazy even for this show. |

| I remember this plot, still sad as heck though. |
| My anime list |
| 1. I cried. That was so sad. Even though I knew what was going to happen. It was STILL REALLY DEPRESSING. 2. Largo is too pretty to ever be a main character. Yes. Too pretty. |

| This episode changed my life. |
Uskaro said: Largo is too pretty to ever be a main character. Yes. Too pretty. Thought the same :P The episode was so sad, i felt like crying. But it was a lovely one as well. |
 |
| Ah, no filler for this episode. That was nice about that, but I am afraid that next episode is a filler. |
| it reminded me of the dog, hachiko. The scene of their graves delivered a special meaning to me. Good ep! |
| that was heartbreaking. |
Kyuusi said: T-T so sad... Dawrin is like fry's dog from futurama They both waited for their masters Yes the very same! They even had that old look about them. Both the Futurama and this episode made me bawl my eyes out. |
| I think this was better than the OVA, even though they were basically the same thing. Still just as sad though. I like the added ended. And next episode= filler... again?? T~T |
| what a sad episode....but it was a nice one to see the director's past.... i love the music they played during the name tag memories.... |
| This is the first episode of Letter Bee to actually make me cry...It's just so sad D,x I'm going to go hug my dog now...*sniff* |
ElenirLachlagos said: parfaited said: Yeah, me too.Sad stories involving animals really get to me. I cried more than Lag. Seriously. Me too D,x I can't take sad stories involving animals either. They make me so sad D,x |
| Well right as I say that episode 16 is my favorite delivery, this one goes and just completely out does it. Wow, that was just so beautiful and bittersweet. Darwin being delivered to Elena's grave so that he could finally rest in peace after all of the waiting he endured. This episode did a nice job at displaying just how important the Letter Bee - Dingo relationship is in their line of work. How they're both partners who look out for one another as well as comrades. They were best friends and in that sense, this really was a delivery of the heart in its most pure form. I nearly choked up on tears when Darwin laid down next to Elena's grave, his journey finally coming to a close. This was the one time where Lag's incessant crying was completely called for. |
 |
| futurama all over again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6GDil0rGls :'( |
| Reminded me of Jurassic Bark too, just a girl and her dog. There's something about waiting for a dead friend that works so well as drama. This is probably my favorite episode of the second cour so far. Not flawless, but it was solid. |
| Why the hell you're making the old dog walk, carry him dammit! Lag and Niche's stupidity of just letting Darwin use up his last ounce of strength like that when it easily could be prevented made me really angry and they lost a lot of points in my book for such a heartless blunder. And that stupid Elena, why the fuck are you bitch leaving your injured dog on a fucking street?! Leave him at home! Or better at a friend's where he can get the care he needs! This episode made more angry with this beyond awful animal treatment than anything. |
