I suspect the OVA will mostly be backstory that they couldn't fit into the main series. The game ending isn't that far off from the anime, with the exception that it gives a little more of a hint that Hakuoro returned. In that respect, it's highly doubtful that they'll get another season, as they've already exhausted most of the source material.
There's plenty more they can do with the series if they really want to, but from what I've seen in the past, I wouldn't expect much. The trend is more to quit before all the original source material has been used, rather than to go that far beyond it.

hmm, talking about ep 26...

the ending was sad... too sad... its the first ending that drove me to almost wanting to shed a tear. i kinda wanted the kiss to happen, but it felt so sad then. the after story for everyone seemed just fine, except by the fact that yuzuha died... and that eruruw didnt get to stay with hakuoro. anyways, this anime met my expectations and even went higher. i might be a sucker for action + romance, but this anime really hit my heart, and is going to be remembered forever.

who knows what the OVA will be about...

about the OVA, my friend says he read somewhere that it will be about



As for the episode...man i loved it but hated the very end...she turns around and smiles...what the heck! I wished they told us whether or not they were reunited at the very end.

game spoiler


well it was nice, and followed the game fairly closely. One of my all time favs =3

Sad ending, and interesting plot twists.
Never played the game, so the expreience is "new".

But I wonder, was the story much better explained in the game? I felt the pace change dramatically towards the end, so I can't help but feel like they couldn't put in more stuff that helped explained further the revelations that were showned towards the end. Grasped the essentials, so I think I undertood it all eitherway, so...

Anyways, good anime, and cool characters.

hmm, at the very end of that episode.
when Eruruu said that she and Aruruu is waiting for him, forever and ever.
while she turned and her eyes seem to water, followed by a bright smile of her... i think thats answer enough that he returned and i will live with that dream/opinion, as she really deserves to be happy...

good series overall, wasnt expecting this...

It was just too sweet !! Well, that's not the right word. What I mean is sweet, but without the 'tasty' feeling.

No, that doesn't sound right either.

Let's start that again, I am touched by the ending. It was sooo ... memoriable! Yes, that's the word!!

I've got to re-watch this one again !!

This. It's so comparable to some mecha anime you all know out there but the romance here makes it even more special even though it was implied/onesided for most of the series. This episode made up for it. First 10 I've given since CG. =)

I have to be honest, was pretty much silent tearing the whole 'Goodbye' scene. But the water works was threatening full-blast when they showed Yuzuha's grave. That just really hit me like a slap to the face.

This series could probably be the exact opposite of what I normally look for, but it just somehow stuck with me! Truthfully, the only reason I had watched it was for an adorable little video clip of Eruruu getting her tail pulled, and wagging it later. So cute. And then this amazing anime happened to be underneath it all! I'm very happy to have seen it.

I cried during the ending. I knew Oboro was going to leave but I didn't know Yuzuha died. Aww and she was one of my favorites. It was nice to see that all the characters were happy and moving on. Kuuya is still my favorite, she was so adorable.

Yuzuha's death was foreshadowed way back at the beginning so no surprise there. These god stuff is just unbelievable. Anyone notice the smile face on Hakuoro's mask?

The ending wasn't really that sad, but it was a bit unpleasant. I saw it coming, but I'm glad they had Hakuoro really leave and not make an excuse for him to stay. What I find even more tragic is seeing Kuuya starting life over as a baby. Psychological things like that make me uncomfortable inside :/

Overall this was a very surprising series. I really enjoyed the beginning moments where there was a lot of war battles. Then it goes all sci-fi and supernatural...and I really don't know if they should have did that. I feel on one side it would have been better if it kept doing what it was doing, but on the other side I feel like it was a great twist to keep things interesting and chain everything together. Tough call, but a great series nonetheless. I might look into playing the game some day.

EDIT ~ Looking through the posts, people really cried at this? Okay I guess it's to be expected, but I found the moment lacking in that kind of emotion. I suppose the VAs did a great job and the dialogue was great, but the music didn't do it for me. Maybe it's because an actual song was playing in the background that made me not get teary-eyed. I think I've only cried when the music is a beautiful instrumental piece...though Crisis Core got to me with that lyrical song at the end, and even when there was no music I was crying. I guess it just depends, lighting seems to affect me too. I get more teary-eyed in the dark than when I have the light on.

It's really disappointing that Oboro did not receive anything besides the lame leadership from Hakuoro, unlike the VN. I guess they tried to push Eruruu as the heroine a lot more than the VN. I hate how they didn't explain the connection between Mutsumi and Iceman, though it not very important perhaps.

Anime was pretty good though since the VN was alright to me.

so the people with wings are like his people....like the child he gave birth 2 had wings...

humans, turned into jelly...

for some reason they can't go on the surface and then humanity is wiped out and then their experiments are left over.

shit that was deep, and those winged people are like anscestors of him so that explains the magic power bit :)

Yeah but in the anime they are meant to be androgynous. Anyways, for those who still didn't get what was going on read the info on Hakuoro http://myanimelist.net/character/288/Hakuoro It explains pretty much the whole post-apocalyptic scenario.

So the final episode was pretty good - could have been better in regard to emotion and such, but I still thought it wrapped things up nicely. The red blob CGI thing was kinda weird, but it was all interesting. I found this anime really addictive from the start, but I never expected it would have such twists towards the end. Unfortunately, I read somewhere that it was a post-apocalyptic anime which was a bit of a spoiler because I reckon that twist was probably the best, although it could be seen as a bit 'Planet of the Apes cliché'.

I'll go as far as 9/10 for the whole series.

Sad ending... but satisfying enough, I suppose. Nice to finally see Eruruu and Hakuoro admitting their feelings, even though it was right before their parting. Also... sad to see that Yuzuha did end up dying. It would've been cool to see her healed, with her eyes hoping, but that would probably be too much of a stretch, I guess!

At the very least, the ending doesn't actually feel as though it left something to be desired. To my surprise, it does have that feeling of having tidied up loose ends nicely and of having a somewhat peaceful, final conclusion.

Well I just finished this in a couple of days and I have to say it was pretty good overall.

I felt the plot got a bit weak towards the end but the whole humans creating the experiments and their experiments going onto populate the planet was interesting. So Humanity itself was wiped out for some reason which is something alot of anime doesnt deal with which was different.

I felt quite sad seeing Aruruu cry over Hakuoro leaving, I was hoping he would have referred to her as his beloved daughter or something as she always thinks of him as father.

The kiss with Eruruu was expected and very welcome, I would have been disappointed if she didnt relay her feelings before he left.

The ending was good though as I like Bittersweet endings as they always give you something to think about.

10/10 for the episode, 8/10 for the series as a whole.

And holy shit, thank you so much for this! I've been having a hard time deciding whether or not I should give this anime a 6 or a 7. After fully understanding the whole thing, 7 (good) seems legit. I felt the whole anime was good and I enjoyed it, but it just didn't feel right giving an anime I didn't fully understand a 7. So yeah, thanks again! :)

One last thing, loved this song. <3
