| THAT KISS. |
 Just quietly leave a memo in my heart. |
one_writer_girl said: FlynnxGuy said: I got pissed how Sion died from 1 shot but Nezumi survived like what, 3? Aah, it's probably because Shion got shot in the chest and Nezumi only got shot in the abdomen (which is still deadly if not treated immediately but generally a slow painful kind of death - not the instant kind?). I think that's how it works, anyway. Mmmm would explain a lot, but still makes me a tad mad. |
 |
| Ok I was like: *Sion laying dead, Nezumi singing and crying near him* ME: Teary puppy eyes, could it be more dramatic? *Safu appears* D:<<< WHY Y U BYATCH AREN'T DEAD???? Personally dead and alive again scenes are.. hilarious -.- It's not that dead Sion would be better but still it would have been more logical if he was shot somewhere else and would recover naturally . And FUUUU(((K you Nezumi, you drama queen , y u left Sion alone with his mama D:<<< Okay... I still can't think normally but....When I'll stop puking bunnies I will write a normal comment -.- |
| I am in shock from this episode. Wasn't quite sure of the motivations, but with a 22 minute time constraint there wasn't exactly time to narrate the thought streams. I rated high, but will probably change the rating after a rewatch in a couple weeks. |
 |
| What are you at, people?! It was great. A bit of Deus ex Machina at the end, but it's not my first time seeing this. But is was my first time in different sense - crying at the happy ending. Yes, it makes no sense. Fuck that. I love how it turned, what characters achieved, and that it was completly the opposite of what I expected (in a good way). It was rushed - but the whole series was that way. Still it managed to give a great piece of character developement. Haven't seen such in a while. |
| What a mediocre anime. |
| I liked it. There were a few things that were rushed and there should have been a few more episodes to explain, but to me it is still one of the better animes this season. I cried, screamed, laughed watching this anime. I enjoy watching a well put together relationship that actually had feelings rather than just hit the sheets. I would love a 2nd season, but they never do that for the good animes. For me, with flaws and all 10/10. |
| The anime series as a whole earn a 9/10 in my book as well. It was a great anime series - and people should not suddenly go bashing on the whole series just because you weren't satisfied with the ending. I didn't approve of the ending and I felt it was greatly rushed and crammed together with those 22 minutes (it would've probably been better with 12 or 13 episodes) but overall, the series was great enough. It would be nice to see some type of OVA or second season even (though I won't hold my breath either for that). And people still hate Safu? Even after this episode? Honestly, there are far worse and more annoying anime/manga girls than her. I will say, I don't think she "loved" Sion like "that" - I believe it was more of a great friendship-type of love, you if know what I mean - though she seemed to think/believe differently. And perhaps Sion felt bad/guilty that he couldn't return her feelings of love in "that" sort of way (i.e: as lovers)...? Safu was a good character - I don't hate her, can't say I loved her character either though; I just admire her in a way. If you all remember the scene where Nezumi was cutting the bee out of Sion's neck earlier in the series - I find the scene where Sion is trying to save Nezumi from the bullet wound, telling him to open his eyes and live (like switching places almost, again) - highly similar to that. It was almost sweet in a sense. I honestly think being around Nezumi made Sion into a stronger character. By the way - anyone else realize just how many times Nezumi has been shot in this entire series?? Anyway, as I said, it earns a 9/10 in my book. I personally think they could've done a better job with the ending but other than that, I loved the series. |

| Could somebody help me? There's some stuff I don't understand... |
   |
| I've read some of the novel but not the last chapter so I can't compare these two yet until I read it DX BUT BESIDES THAT I WAS CRYING LIKE A BABY AND SCREAMING WHEN THEY KISSED ;___; God it was..so many emotions..I can't... I have no problems..and I really want a season 2 but it's like so...slim to none..*cries* Screw it. 10/10 |

amyiceeyes said: Why did Nezumi lie to Shion and tell him he was using him? Some episodes before, when he found out about Safu, he said he wanted to save her to make Shion happy. And what's with that ending? Why does he leave? Where to? Well Nezumi looked like he was enjoying the moment... I mean, Nezumi always wanted " Sion to stay Sion" . At that moment Sion was crying like a baby and Nezumi's words made him even worse. So I guess Nezumi has used the moment to see the same old Sion. Why does he leave? Because he's a damn drama queen. Nezumi said himself that there won't be any more good-bye kisses. So what was that? Good night kiss my ass XD |
Sharyka said: Nezumi said himself that there won't be any more good-bye kisses. So what was that? Good night kiss my ass XD Yeah, and that kiss SUCKED. Lazy animators who use angle as an excuse to make heads cover faces (and mouths) are LAZYYYYY. |
|
| wow, was this an original ending? |
| The series has been consistent in an awesome way, yet they managed to pull this WTF ending. In the end, No.6 becomes one of those forgettable animes. |
 |
| LMAO, if they didn't bother so much with animating all the fanservice scenes from the books, I believe they would have had more time to explain things properly. I'm happy with the bromance and all but in this case I think it interfered a bit too much with the plot :/ No one can deny we had some episodes where nothing happened at all, then at the end SURPRISE PLOT |

|
| Good ending. But wish Nezumi would have stayed. Dx |
"Wait for the signal, and I'll meet you after dark" |
| WTF did I just watch? This is what you call a rushed ending indeed, though I refuse to let it ruin the other ten impeccable episodes. I'm disappointed. The kiss was really the only thing worth it. |

Okay that makes more sense, and is very poignant...that is how it should have ended, them showing Shion waiting for Nezumi. |
| I almost broke my glasses during uncontrollable facepalm. Another series with wasted potential. 5/10 |
| Wow this final episode was such a mess. Thank you Bones for destroying such a great novel series. I guess the biggest flaw of this since when it started was its (lack of) length. It's hilarious how it didn't even made sense why Nezumi left Shion here in the anime. A minute ago he was weeping over him, and then afterwards he suddenly leaves him without saying much. I don't know if I'll just laugh. 7/10 Overall, and I'll just pretend this had 10 episodes. |
| nice episodic ending it was good, but it wasn't the best... |
 |
| A bit rushed but overall GREAT EPISODE. i loved it~~~ Felt pity for Safu, but she did great saving Shion and destroying the walls. mitzuki101 said: Nezumi and Sion finally really kissed! *fangirl scream* I'm hoping they'll meet again! Overall I give it a 10/10 THIS ;3 |
ワンダーランド花 ♥ |
| Well that was.... rushed. I kinda feel like nothing, and really nothing, got an proper explanation. The kiss made me happy though, even if it was waaay too short, but sadly the moment was crushed when Nezumi just left D: Still, I loved this anime but it could have been SO much better with a few more episodes. |
| Well I wasn't expecting another kiss lol And they're both still fine after getting show up... That left way too much open. Disappointing for such a good show ): |
| NO SRSLY WTH WAS THIS CRAP BONES. Two words: ridiculously terrible. (I assumed Bones actually learnt something over the years after the remake of FMA but no. Do they really enjoy remakes so much? o.O Stay closer to the canon of your source (eg. the novel) for fuck's sake!) |

This is so beautiful. I changed my mind. Why, oh, why, BONES. What did you do to this exellent, touching material. |
| ... Ehh. After these building episodes, I felt the ending would have had a little more impact. I feel Nezumi wants to come back later on, but they could have elaborated on that a little more. I really loved Number 6, but this ending really didn't live up to it's name, although I did enjoy it. 5/5 For awesomeness. |
| OHHHH MY GODD!!!!!!!!! 45R5DRFGAGHSIJSKDJSDCOSDCIAJSOCFSOGJVKISFCAAJAHJSHDASCUALSCAHDAGSJADIWFSFSVS4D4VSDGVSR52GSFSJFDCF5SDF4S5D33 *spazzing* Anyway, THIS EPISODE WAS RUSHED AS HELL!!! SO MANY THINGS HAPPENED, I HATE HOW IT WAS SO RUSHED!!! In like 10 minutes, Safu shows up, she dies, the building burns down, Nezumi is shot, Shion tries to do surgery on him, flash backs, Shion gets shot, Shion dies, singing, and then a big ass bee shows up... I HATE RUSHED ENDINGS.. So I was about to rate this like a 7 since this ending seemed rushed and Shion died, but then BAM!!! SHION IS BACK TO LIFE!!! I then wanted to rate it a 8... but then!!!! WHEN I RATED THIS A 10/10 GREAT SHOW!!!!!!!!!AGDSAJDHSHCAOLSHDIJA!!!! BRING IN AUTUMN 2011~!!!!!! Edit: but actually... I'm kinda sad that Shion and Neumi had to split up ;___; |

| Pheeew, finally my mind has cooled and I can write a normal comment. So. It was very... disappointing. Bees kills people, Nezumi shot, Safu is Elyulias, Safu Blown, Sion dead, Sion dead NOT, No.6 blown, (.....) so many things happened in fakin one episode ;_; I don't know why producers came up with idea to make 11 episodes, 12 would have been perfect (well, not for hardcore fans who wouldn't get enough with 100 eps xD). Maybe anyone knows why ..? Sion dead NOT scene was the most disappointing. How the fu*k Safu could make him alive, she herself was already dead... Maybe when I'll reach this part at the novel it will be clear but now it looked like a magical scene from sailor moon. I don't wand Nezumi or Sion dead but just imagine how dramatic it would be if one of them would have actually died... However I agree with someone who has said that ending should be with Sion waiting near the window and maybe with a hint of Nezumi coming. It would have been 100% perfect, dramatic yet heart-warming. |
| I knew he was going to come back to life...fuhuhuhu e___e Anyways, this ending really made my head explode because it was REALLY rushed. I've seen a lot of rushed and really random endings (COUGH COUGH, KUROSHTISUJI II), but this by far was on the top list of 'ones that made me go ($#*@&$%*(@$&#..." I'd also like that add on the fact that kiss was really weird...like it was completely random. Seriously. BAM! NEZMUI HOLDS HIS CHIN AND KISSES HIM! Don't get me wrong...it was in a way 'cute' but still... I love how Shion kind of really doesn't have any reaction after that xD He's just like,"Ah...he kissed me. Yuppp." I'm not against shounen-ai as it includes kisses but that, in my opinion, wasn't really 'necessary' in a way. I STILL DON'T FREAKING GET WHY NEZMUI LEFT. Sure one day they might "meet againnn" but why'd Nezmui just disappear like that? It really bothers me how he leaves Shion. All in all, it did make me jump off my seat a bit. Just a tiny bit. It didn't leave me at edge of my seat, however, because in my opinion the ending was decent. Not amazing. Not bad...just...pretty good. It's not 'average' as it had a lot going on in the ending and answers to questions are revealed but they really could of extended the series a bit to further explain and focus on more things. I'm also, in a way, sort of disappointed. Just a bit. Probably because NEZMUI just freaking dragged his butt out of the picture...yeah that's probably the thing that's bothering me the most. |

narusasu1 said: They changed the ending they left out the conversation they had the ending in a different location toned down the nature of Sion and Nezumi's relationship. Left out the reason for the kiss at the end and changed Sion's reaction to it. And how it should have been in the alternative ending? <I still haven't reached that part> |
| Yoo... my voice is gone you guys.. XDD I screamed so bad in the kiss scene, I cant even talk right now...xD |
Lulexiaa said: Yoo... my voice is gone you guys.. XDD I screamed so bad in the kiss scene, I cant even talk right now...xD Okayyyy so lately I don't know what's been going on with my brain (I think I have obtained Fangirl Syndrome...just a bit of it) and I just feel like it wasn't enough. I'm not talking about they should've...done 'that' (if you don't get what I'm talking about erase it from your mind completely. I don't even know what the heck I'm babbling about anymore) but I mean they could of hugged after the kiss or had a special moment that lasted for more than 5 seconds if you know what I'm talking about...yeah. If they're going to add a kiss make it more memorable. That kiss was just sooo random I could've seen it ending with or without it. I do understand that Nezumi isn't exactly the kind of guy who likes to be all "lovey dovey" but that kiss popped out of NOOOWHEREEE and it just ends like that. Oh, of course Nezumi drags his butt away after that (that's the part that enrages me) which made it EVENN more romantic. |
narusasu1 said: It was a promise to return kiss and Sion is at a window and shows Sion staring out the window as he always did waiting on Nezumi 2 possible ways apparently one is you just see Sion waiting another is you see Nezumi returning. There was more to the conversation too but I would have to look it up again. They left a lot of coversations out in this anime, especially Nezumi's thoughts and feelings. The promise to return kiss was from him, not Sion just saying I will see you again in a strong determined way to return home. Geez, it seems that anime is missing a lot :/ Maybe they've cut those scenes not just to fit into 11 eps. (STILL DUNNO WHY JUST 11) but also to avoid angry homophobics. |
narusasu1 said: Seems if they wanted to avoid upsetting anti-bl peeps they would of left the kiss scenes out all together. They did leave a lot of important things out like the book showing that Sion was inlove with Nezumi even says it is a love confession to Nezumi at one point. They leave out pretty much everything Nezumi is thinking. They leave out a conversation about another kiss that did not happen when they had been climbing the bodies. They toned it down a lot, the manga already shows more then the anime but the manga is way behind the anime. They also leave out the part where Sion would mumble Nezumi's name all the time during the 4 years after they met and Sion's mom said asked him about it and said the way he would say his name was with longing and she asked who he was and was he heartbroken by this Nezumi in which he would blush and get clumsy. Oh, I can't forget that they've putted that Safu sweater story in the anime. After all anime wasn't that bad... but fact "book is always better than the movie" still stays. I'm still surprised how author (and all cast) could keep this anime so pure even thought that it was shonen-ai and even with 2 kisses, usually anime gets vulgar after one person confesses to other. Now I'm kinda sad that series are over (for what will I wait now D:?). I guess I should find another anime with such an amazing purity (but with blood and corpses inside xD). |
| Most. Disappointing. Ending. Ever. 8/10 because the first 10 episodes were epic. |
