| I really had seen this some time ago... but even now when I watch it again, I'm just amazed how awesomely made this is considering it's a doujin anime. Background art, character design, and of course, though it was sad, I really liked how well they managed to depict the whole mood and atmosphere of the story and leave an impact with the ending. Awesome job :) |
| Lmao, so MAL finally added this to their database. Loved this OVA. <3 |
| Meh. |
 |
| oh shit, I'd heard this was sad, didn't expect it to be Key-level sadism. ;_; I shouldn't watch sad things right before bed D: For a while, this felt like a pilot for a series, until the end. It'd be nice to get a series out of this, though. (With a a nicer ending, maybe...?XD) I'd watch it. also people keep calling this a Chobits rip-off and it 's not. A robot girl does not a Chobits rip-off make. Also, Flower >>>>>> Chii. For an indy anime this had some fantastic art. Especially the backgrounds.*__* Keiichiro dresses like a Digimon character. /random observation overall 8 and crying myself to sleep. (No, not really.) Toodle pip. |
| When was this added to the database? Well, I watched this a pretty long time ago and I liked it, maybe I should watch it again. |
| BLARGH. Why does it have to be so depressing!? I'm too much of a sucker for naive kids and them dying. Why couldn't this be a whole anime series instead? The headphones were quite cute too. |

| Hope there will be a Manga or Anime of this story, sinces this really was a great story with a sad ending. |
 |
| All I have to say is: Awwww... |
| really wish this was made into a series. i want more flower =[ too kawaii |
| I don't get the significance of having her headphones on the sunflower at the end? He left her..? :S |
Sucrose said: I don't get the significance of having her headphones on the sunflower at the end? He left her..? :S I think she died(well malfunctioned to be exact) she managed to live for a couple of days but in the end, she couldn't handle it anymore... D: I also think that the music box he was holding at the end was part of Flower's gear or something xDD |
| funny - when I tried to add this anime to the database, I was told "We don't list doujin/independent anime in our database"... Sorry for offtop |
| Did anyone else think that the description sounds an auful lot like Chobits? |
 |
| Pretty good episode. Keiichiro's past and what happened to his parents was as sad and profound as what happened to Haruka's car accident in Kimi no Nozomu Eien. Flower was rather cute for a android. I was more under the impression that Keiichiro's sister took control of Flower when she woke from her sleep. Kind of the soul in the machine thing. It was because she wanted to give back Keiichiro's music playing since it was the last thing she wanted to hear. In the end he did start playing. Anyways in case someone missed it, Transformer's Autobots indirect reference in the spoiler, on the T-Shirt. gdone123 said: Sucrose said: I don't get the significance of having her headphones on the sunflower at the end?

D: That's about right gdone123, it was exactly that. Except she lived for a few more months. Maybe the sister had run of time to stay on earth and the soul left Flower so she could not function anymore or just her core simply out-spanned it life length and there were no more parts for that left. gdone123 said: I also think that the music box he was holding at the end was part of Flower's gear or something xDD It was, I have the proof in the spoiler to compare in the first pic is Flower's insides and the second the music box part. They look alike except Keiichiro gold plated one part of Flower's original part. |

| It was very short but sweet. I really enjoyed it, a very sad story, managed to get me pretty emotional. |
| Blah it felt it was too short. Ending was bittersweet |
 |
| By the way, there seems to have been a single release for the song. Here is the short version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vYfXwP-5iA Here is an alternate short version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKU7r7i1L9s Here is the full five-minute version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NubCW4Thg-U Trailer featuring the short version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atRud5Rd5S4 |
| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| I only wish it could have been longer. It could have been sadder that way. |
| It always tears me up when I see a loli pass away... My reaction for the 30 minutes of this OVA: HHHHNNNNGGGG!!!! |
| eh... didnt rly make me bawl... maybe i dont rly care for loli? (I'm so inhumane lol) But it does make you ponder for a bit. Great job on packing a story in 30 minutes of animation. |
  |
| Didn’t feel sad in the least, strangely. I must be numb or simply cold-hearted today. Or maybe I don’t care too much for lolis. The animation quality was absolutely amazing, though. Fluid movements, great backdrop art, attention to detail… I’m impressed. |
I think, then procrastinate. Therefore, I am. |
| Did I miss something or it's just that this anime was quite meaningless ;/ I believe 4/10 would suit it perfectly. |
 |
| good OVA kinda little sad watch ending this OVA |
 |
| I liked this. |
 |
| Depressing in a not-so-good way... |
 |
| Sweet little anime :) I love/hate bittersweet endings like this. |
| Was in it for the light hearted happy ending. FUCK. Didn't turn out the way I wanted it to. T_T |
 |
| i watched this for Flower... i got Flower + a sad story that made me cry.. surprisingly good for an OVA... it's very short, but was able to convey the story well... though i honestly expected more... |
 |
| very sweet and gentle little anime... I'd really love the sound of the music and vivid artwork.. it could be a good Tv series if aired .. i give this anime a 9/10 :) |
 |
| Question about the very end: Other then that: It was pretty nice. |
 |
| what an adorable android. i like this OVA though the ending...i just wanted somthing short and sweet, bit it ended up bittersweet. |
     |
| Really heartbreaking ending. I cried LOTS. Its so sad that she had to die |
| Wow... bittersweet as hell! Didn't think this OVA would be so in-depth... R.I.P. Flower<3 :( |
 |
| Ugh. Ending was cheap, contrived, sentimental... I want my 30 minutes back. |
| I feel touched by it. |
