| About Alex: Though I think he did die, there was a little hint that he did not. This frame. Right after a Silvana crewman says that there's debris of Delphine's ship falling on the ground. It's a human body (you can see it in motion a bit afterwards) and looks a lot like Alex to me. The legs are folded in this frame, but they're there (again, you can see it when it's in motion). Of course, there's no proof that this isn't a dead body. The grave could be just empty and just there as a memorial, but I guess they would've found him if he survived. Also, it would make his final scenes a bit meaningless. Oh, and I'm not sure if you can call that a spoiler... Dio survives - he's still alive in the second season of Last Exile. |
Erzaa said: Um.. Last Exile was a 10 for me but went down to a 9. Every episode was perfect until the end. I actually hated the ending. Way too many things unanswered. Dio's death was in vain. All this time building his character and relationship with Claus and everyone and he just dies alone, forgotten. Even Claus said he was a friend, but I guess not. Delphine's death was stupid. Was expecting something way more horrid after everything that bitch did. Alex.. I'm glad he died. Never liked that jerk. Good to see how the world is a better place now though.. But yeah I'm unsatisfied. I'm exactly the same, the ending really soured what had been an almost perfect series. Lucciola's death was beautiful, but after that it all crashed in a heap. Especially appalling was the complete trashing of that odd, complex relationship between Claus and Dio, that they'd spent half the series building, and Dio suddenly being pretty much forgotten. I think I spent most of the last 3 episodes thinking, where the hell's Dio and why doesn't Claus care anymore? Mullin Shetland magically surviving was also stupid, since it was plain from Dunya's reaction that he was dead. If someone you love has been shot but is still alive, you don't walk away and leave them to bleed. Either he's dead or Dunya's a complete idiot who doesn't know how to check for a pulse, and left him to bleed his life away while she went and cried her eyes out. It's a shame, because I was really loving the series up until that point, but now I can't look back at it without feeling almost betrayed. When an ordinary series has a crappy ending, it's no great loss, but this one was a real waste. |

When an ordinary series has a crappy ending, it's no great loss, but this one was a real waste. We all get different things out of the same show. I found the ending good. Regarding Dio, I never got the impression Claus considered him a close enough friend to be distracted by him given everything else going on - Claus had to be focused on keeping Alvis safe and to Exile so she could do her thing - taking care of Dio when he appeared to be trying to sabotage what Claus was doing was surely a low priority for Claus. Dio's "death" (as it seemed at the time) might have been in vain, but in war many people die in vain. Regarding Mullin - (shrug) - not sure what I an say there other than when in combat everybody reacts differently - there were a lot of dead and dying bodies around, and what I took away was that Dunya appeared to be in shock from it all and when she saw his butchered body and the huge pool of blood on the floor she just broke. I've personally never been in combat but what I've read a lot about read about people's reactions - her reaction didn't seem unreasonable from what I've read, so I'm not going to second guess it. Obviously, your mileage may vary. |
 |
| Badly written show but entertaining nonetheless. Dio made it worthwhile. So fucking sad he had to die. Oh well.. at least Mullen miraculously came back to life. |
 |
| Too many things left for speculation, lots of loose ends. I still liked the series despite its flaws. |
| Happy face :) I'm really sad about Alex though :/ He did fulfill his desire in the end so it's alright :D Nice, conclusive ending to a great show with great pacing. ^ There were loose ends, as others pointed out, but that's why there's another season. But it still ended the main plot well, so I can't complain. The show gets an 8 from me :) It used to be a 9, but things got less awesome towards the end. |
Justwon said: Haha!Hmm, finished the series in a few days, and the ending... I was kinda hoping Lavi would die =P I actually detest her character. While watching this I couldn't help but notice how alike it is with Eureka Seven, and while Claus wasn't anywhere near as annoying as Renton, Lavi wasn't anywhere near as perfect as Eureka (character wise). I doubt Dio actually died, and I was kinda going "WTF MAN!" when Mullin died... And then they had this funeral looking thing with dark-skin babe and Lavi handing over the treaty, and crying and such, THEN SUDDENLY, A WILD MULLIN APPEARS 30 SECONDS BEFORE CREDITS! I loved dark-skin babe so much that I'm willing to accept a mystical resurrection, just cause they're both awesome. My understanding of the ending was that they all went on Exile back to Earth, and the time lapse would have to have been at least 4-5 years, as Mullin's kid is like, somewhere between 3-4, maybe older. I WANTED TATIANA TO BE THE LOVE INTEREST! SCREW YOU STORYLINE! Man, Lavi.... TATIANA, WHY!? Lavi forever! |

ihateuimeanit said: Pretty good series, but after the harem almost scene... It went downhill -___- But still they ended it with a very good --almost impossible-- ending, so I'll put a 9/10 just to annoy people! ^^ Why would giving it a 9/10 annoy people? I think that's a fair score for Last Exile. |

| Well, I didn't feel convinced about that Exile thing, but atleast it was a happy ending. Also best part without any doubt was when Alex killed Delphine, there was nothing I wanted more that to see that annoying bitch dead. That alone made the ending satisfying enough for me. In any case, Last Exile was a really good watch. |
 |
| like this ending but it's better if Alex wouldn't die.. |
| That was really one of the best series I've seen in a while. I loved the adventure of it, it was for the most part really fun. Towards the end I wasn't sure if this was the kind of anime to actually kill off major characters, in a tragic way like that... But then when we were led to believe Mullin died, and Luciola died... I wasn't too surprised - but still incredibly sad - when Alex died. But regarding Alex's and Dio's deaths... Or "deaths"... I want to believe what people say about Dio, especially since his death ("death") was rather glossed over, no mourning, no mention, nothing. His presence wasn't missed (well, he only did just become likable to the main characters a few episodes before the conclusion)... Maybe he isn't dead? I don't know what to make of it. As for Alex, I'm really upset about that, but, his death seems rather expected. I mean, he was out for revenge, and that didn't change the whole course of the series. That was what he was living for, he didn't seem to have much left of him after Euris died... The prospect of one day avenging her death was probably what kept him going so long after her death, even if he became an unsociable grump, lol. So when he died after getting his revenge, at the tragic hands of Sophia no less... It felt kind of...right. Still not happy he died, but if he just magically survived that and went back to the Silvana, it wouldn't have felt very final. Sadly it just seems that's where his journey ends. Damn though, I was hoping someday, maybe years down the road, Sophia could get through that coldness of his. Meh, that's a pipe dream. But I still want to believe that they didn't find Alex's body, and perhaps that was an empty grave, and they assume he's dead... Lol, not the case at all of course. But hey, Mullin came back and I was so sure he was dead. =[ Glad he came back though, he was awesome. xP Well. Aside from the deaths or not deaths... It was an okay finale. A lot of things were left unanswered or without closure, but by that point I was kind of sucked up in the drama and action of the last episodes that I wasn't thinking too much about it. I know there are answers outside the show itself, in DVD booklets or magazines, but... It would've been cool to learn more about Exile, Alvis, the Guild (curious people), what becomes of Lavie and Claus' relationship, what the Silvana is up to/its next mission under presumably Sophia's command, why Exile acted the way it did and why it was supposedly obeying Delphine even with only 3 'poems' (forget the other word for them), etc... I don't see them as plotholes rather things that weren't entirely necessary to answer, but were just things that would've been nice to have answered...but still entirely possible to forget about or fill in the blanks yourself. I'm not going to sweat over the origins of Exile, lol, but it'd be nice to do more than speculate. Still, not necessary for me to have enjoyed this series. Which I fully did enjoy. I give it a final 9/10. The overall journey is most important, not necessarily the conclusion you arrive at, and that's how I see this show. |
| Enjoyed this series quite a bit! Sorta reminded me a bit of Eureka Seven, probably should have been as long. Glad I'm not the only one feeling left with unanswered questions. I actually kinda like that some of the characters we connected with died, some you win others you lose like real life. 7/10 |
| Such junk... |
| So many victims, all tried so hard, and eventually kills the captain with his bare hands Maestro, LOL. But the anime very much, 9/10. |
| The new release of Last Exile: Fam the Silver Wing picks up the Last Exile story two years later on Earth. And, some of the original characters appear in the new series, including one who was thought to be... gone. The artwork is quite a bit different from the original series, but I enjoyed the new series as much as the original - and watched back to back the two series tell a much more complete story. Very good ending to wrap everything up, as well! Together, one of my all time favorite anime series ever! Also there is a Last Exile wiki online called "To the Sky: A Last Exile Wiki" that has a very long, detailed timeline page describing all the backstory and history of the Last Exile World - definitely a must-read - but only after you have watched the original series first, as there are many spoilers in the timeline! |

| This sure was a nice yet touching ending with quite a lovely yet interesting concept how everything ended! I do wonder what the second season has to offer but well this ending sure was suiting enough to close up the series so I'll quite enjoy the second season as well! |
 |
| That was really good ! :D an 8.5/10 for me ! I loved it. I also wanted an end where Mullin was married with kids and I got that so I am happy. |

| Hmm okay so the Exile is a spaceship. Didn't see that coming. I honestly thought it was just some advanced ancient civilization technology. I'm not going to ask any more question, I'll just watch the sequel I guess. But yeah I was confused lol. I wish they could have focused more on the main plot and discovering the mystery behind Exile. I mean I don't even know what the Guild is, why they're there or how they got so powerful. Maybe I just missed it, I don't know >__< I think that scene where Alex killed Delphine was a bit lacking. Needed more oomph I guess. But it was strangely satisfying. Alex literally killed Delphine by his own hands...or hand in this case. And was that sound the sound of Delphine's neck getting broken? Woo! I would have given this a 10 but that ending was just really confusing. But this doesn't change the fact that this series is awesome. The characters were likable. I raged at some of them at first but then ended up liking them. The villains aren't one-dimensional either. Really loved it :) |

| WTH Delphine? I'm disappointed in you :< |

| The ending was neither bad nor good. A lot of things were conveniently left either unanswered or vague. I can't get over how Claus abandoned Dio in the hospital when he was clearly disoriented. Was he expecting a deranged individual to stay in place? After I viewed Dio's birthday party scene, I had great expectations for the relationship between Claus, Al and Dio. However, Claus and Al left Dio all alone in the Grand Stream without a care -- as if he was merely some burdensome baggage. Is that how shallow their relationship with him was? Yes, they had a vital mission before them, but helping Dio wouldn't have been too much of an impediment. Furthermore, Dio wasn't a lost cause. He was slowly regaining his memories and personality. Elrondp said: How, and when, did Mullen get there? I mean, the only thing left was to make him a grave if you think about it. He got shot on the torso, stayed there for a while and the girl left him inside and went out by herself to sit right away. The guy was dead! That's what I was thinking. If your loved one was gravely injured, it wouldn't make sense for you to leave them all alone and lament in another room. Mullin was dead in that scene. Since his corpse wasn't shown, perhaps they decided to revive him at the last minute for the hell of it. j0x said: and Alex death is a tragic one just when he was about to move on after he accomplish his revenge then later planning to love Sophia, the unaware Sophia fired a missile at him accidentally, what a waste of good love ending right there lol Alex was never planning on moving on to Sophia or any other girl. His heart was reserved for Euris. The only thing that was keeping him alive in a world without her was his profound craving for revenge. After he fulfilled his vengeance, he really had no reason to be living anymore. I feel a bit bad for Sophia, but I believe that she'll be able to move on. It would be nice if she got together with Vincent. Overall, this series was a 8/10 for me. |

| Dio was officially off his rocker. I couldn't feel anything but sorry for him at that point, he was completely wacka-doodle and it was painstakingly understandable why. I thought it was interesting how Wina lied to Sophie about Alex's last words. She did it without hesitation and it spoke volumes about that one way love. I liked the moment where Claus and Lavie found their fathers' vanship in Exile, but after that it started to lose me. Usually I'm on board for interpretative conclusions and showing rather than telling, but this one just rubbed me the wrong way. The spaceship bit felt out of place in the steam punk setting and took away from the novelty of the world building. Nevertheless, I will give credit that its purpose made sense. It was established as a colonization ship before and the hint is in the Mysteria themselves. Specifically "The place where all are born and all will return. A blue world." This, combined with other responses, leads me to believe that they did indeed use Exile to travel to Earth and make a fresh start. Although that then begs a new question - how did Mullins survive? I mean, last time we saw him, his wife to be was abandoning his corpse and sulking. Personally I didn't want him to die, but it just seemed out of nowhere to include that scene and then randomly show him to be all dandy. Still, it was a sweet little happily ever after. Last Exile was certainly an adventure...of sorts. I don't mean to nitpick since I really did enjoy it overall, but there were certainly elements within it that left far more to be desired. For starters, I personally preferred the early episodes. There was a far more vibrant and colorful atmosphere with Lavie and Claus's dynamic duo working together as messengers. The sky was the limit (ba-dum...tsh...). But once they boarded the Silvana, it felt like that energy diminished with the battle against the Guild. There was also the matter of the romance octagon that was starting to take shape midway. It seemed rather pointless to introduce elements of affection only to pretend they never existed later on. With that aside, the negatives weren't nearly enough to outweigh its merits. Aside from the above gripes, I felt the journey was smooth and well executed. The characters were also particularly well handled, as demonstrated by Claus's growth and how his perspective on flying vanships changed. In contrast, Lavie wanted to hold onto her love for peaceful skies. By the end, their initially opposite visions were able to unite in their desire to protect the freedom of what had become their true home - the sky. I'd love to mention more about Dio but I'm getting tired of typing soooo....Dio rules! Last Exile managed to weave together a very fascinating atmosphere and the art style was reminiscent to Kino's Journey. The CGI was actually very well utilized and organically blended into its sci-fi world. Admittedly I found myself dozing off during some of the air battles, but the vanship flights were always thrilling to watch. 7/10, I've heard nothing but bad things about the sequel but ironically it looks more up my alley so I may give it a go in the near future. |
 |
| Why do I have the feeling that 70% ~ of this shows important event and explanations happened off-screen?? Oh well.. Also, annoying leads and only 2 interesting characters (Alex and Dio) dying in the end didn't make it any better. The only thing that made me rate 6 and not 5 was that Delphine s* getting chocked to death. 6/10 |
| A bit of an odd ending, but overall a very enjoyable show. I thought Dio's death was very well done. All his life he's had Lucciola right by his side and when he snapped out of his stupor, he was nothing without his other hand. Delphine's death came out of nowhere. Out until the very end she thought she was in total control and her face when Alex grabs her by the neck is priceless. If I have to point out a weakness of the series (besides too much happening offscreen) it's Claus. He just had so little in place of personality. He could have been better developed and written. And don't get me started on the weird haremic turn it took halfway through. It felt inappropriate On to the sequel I guess. |

| Well, I guess that happened. I don't like the priorities of the finale. Instead of expanding on the more intriguing aspects of the show, and leaving the personal narratives of Claus and Mullin and the like up to our imagination, it did the opposite. Dio and Alex died in some pretty unsatisfying ways, and Delphine never really got the chance to be a three dimensional character. Oh well. It's too bad they didn't recognize the strength of the material they had on their hands; if the narrative had been tightened up, for example by cutting the melodrama baggage surrounding Claus, as well as developing the core ensemble with fewer distractions, this could have been an all around excellent series. But that's just my opinion. At the end of the day, it had several good ideas and at least it looked pretty. |
| huh? So what? What happened? What was so great about the ship ? How is there peace in the new planet? Was there other life there? How was Alvis connected to the ship? Why was she the only one able to open it? Who seperated the poems that needed to open it? What does the ship do now? Who governs it? What happened to Dio, he was the only good character that made sence, killing him off isn't right, his friend sacrificed his life to save him. So much uneeded romance in the middle and the main couple doesn't even end up together? Man and i thought bleach had a loose ending... i had high hopes for this show it had such a good setting... bummer |
| Man its like hardly anyone paid attention to anything and are asking questions that have been answered years ago. Anyway, I'm rewatching this show after a couple years and I still think its an amazing adventure series. Yes, the ending is rushed and I would of liked a bit more clarification on things but it was still great. Delphine's death was satisfying for me, bitch got her necked snapped. The only part that was meh for me was the romance which didn't really go anywhere. Well, I guess Mullin finally got his girl. Great show, not as great as Eureka Seven but still pretty damn good. |
 |
| Felt nothing from Dio's "death", crazy guy who killed several innocent people yet I am supposed to care about him because Lucciola sacrificed himself. Nope. Really all the characters felt muted and not really fleshed out. Claus and Lavie's relationship never really went anywhere which is annoying and in the end Alex was just a one dimensional character looking for revenge and nothing else to him. Decent show for all that but after rewatching just isn't as good as I recall. |
 |
| This was just disappointing. We never learn anything about this world enough to actually care. The main characters are barely interesting and the interesting ones are dead. You don't have to spoon-feed me the answers but at least make an effort to answer something damnit. Overall, this series had a few good moments but honestly, I just could not care about any of this. 5/10. |
| Was between a 6 and 7 during the series, this ending kinda pushed it down to 6 for sure. Overall an enjoyable watch, but nothing too special. None of the characters really stood out. The world was interesting, but we didn’t see enough to care too much about it. I think with more episodes it could have been better. Would like to have seen more world and character development. |
 |
| As the alliance force rush Delphine's ship, Claus, Lavie and Alvis get closer to delivering the poem and ending everything. Would you look at that, a happy ending. How nice. I still have little to no clue what Exile is, why it was there in the first place, who created it and how it got there, and tbh I think I'll never know (unless it's explained in the sequel, of course). So Mullin is alive. Awesome. Shame Alex had to die, tho. I wonder if Alex could have choked Delphine to death sooner, avoiding his own death... Last Exile wasn't necessarily a bad watch. It had interesting and enjoyable characters. Decent CG for 2006, although frustratingly out of focus most of the time. What let this show down for me was the lack of consistency and care for the art and character designs. The animation and plot were average too. |

| Delphine's death was definitely anticlimactic (I actually liked it) and funny, in a sense...until I realized they were going to kill Alex ;_; Overall Last Exile turned out to be an enjoyable steampunk show, but I think the mysterious elements could've been either less mysterious or better fleshed out...I wasn't too huge of a fan of the ending and the whole Exile thing, not gonna lie. Alvis' connection to it is still a mystery, how does that even work? Dio's fate is left ambiguous, given that we hear his voice in the engine room later on (how?), and he seems to be a character in the sequel? Well, even if he died, that was pretty sad. Same if he didn't. This frame. Right after a Silvana crewman says that there's debris of Delphine's ship falling on the ground. It's a human body (you can see it in motion a bit afterwards) and looks a lot like Alex to me. The legs are folded in this frame, but they're there (again, you can see it when it's in motion). The link isn't working anymore, but what I see after that line is a green vanship, not a body. P.S. Still no idea who that weird yellow person in white...things in the first opening was. |

| for people who are confused about the fact that Al didn't age, read this: "The epilogue shows that he [Mullin] survived to be with Dunya and live on a farm alongside Dunya's siblings. Many viewers mistakenly assumed the child shown to be Mullin's son. Additional materials state the child is Dunya's younger brother." this is from the character info. so sad :( I thought they were their children. |
| While yes, I loved this ending, I also can't help but feel like maybe it was rushed, or it wasn't put together in the best way. They "freed" Exile, and then suddenly they were inside it? But also there was a ton of other people in there too? Like they just showed up there? I'm glad Mullin is alive (which is like, what? It looked like he died two episodes ago. I don't like how they did that), and I think Dio is alive too? I think you can hear his voice in the engine room... But how? We saw him fall in The Grand Stream, and suddenly he's back on the Sylvana? How did that even happen? Again, I loved this ending but I feel like it could've been done better, but then again, that's with a lot of things from this anime. Some things felt off and awkward at times, but overall I enjoyed this! So glad I finally got around to watching this! This was awesome! :D |
 |
| so i guess exile was a colony ship meant to terraform and spread humans across the galaxy. not sure where "the guild" comes in, but the ending, even if a bit rushed, was quite beautiful. i also don't like how dio was just killed off with no resolution to his character. |
 |
| This episode jumps around from one twist to another without really giving you much time to process what's happening, and Dio's death scene was unintentionally funny due to how he just falls off his plane and there's absolutely no reaction from Claus, Lavie or anyone else despite them having become his friends, they also don't explain how Mullin survived, one scene showing him being treated by a medic before the ending would already be good enough to be honest. There's a handful of stuff that's left ambiguous, like the backstory surrounding the Guild, Prester's creation and the Exile, which is a shame because exploring all of this in a flashback episode or something like that would be very interesting. That being said, I do think this is a good ending from a thematic standpoint. Last Exile is mainly a story about people's ability to change and adapt, as well as how much of an influence the past has on who they are, this being applied to a context like war, which is something that always brings changes to the world at large. Aside from the characters' individual stories relating to their pasts, there's the overall idea of Anatoray and Disith repeating the exact same mistakes that led to the Earth being ruined and the migration to Prester happening in the first place by waging war against each other, while the Guild's overall apathy towards them stems from the fact that the previous generation of their houses failed at passing on their knowledge to the new one, which in turn led to their internal conflicts and Delphine taking over. Seeing how much death and destruction all of this caused, the people who survived and returned to the now healed Earth can put what they learned from their experiences in Prester into practice and hopefully create a better future for themselves and for mankind as a whole once they repopulate the planet. This conclusion might be way too optimistic for some people, you can argue that realistically there will be some conflict in the future because humanity is hardwired to go to war or whatever, but I think having such a positive ending for Last Exile is a breath of fresh air compared to the high amount of "human bad" messages these types of stories tend to bring with them. |

| First, I will say that Last Exile is cool. Airships with people manning observations towers looking around with binocular towers, people shouting down brass tubes, morse code signaling. Airship battles. The Silvana crew look good in their uniforms and Alex looks great in his black coat. Instead of the usual "plucky rebels vs evil empire" setup, instead it's the empire and the nomadic barbarians team up to fight the guild, which has a monopoly on clean water while everyone else is drinking filthy water and nations are disappearing off of the face of the earth because of drought. That being said, rule of cool is no substitute for the fundamentals of storytelling. Proper pacing and scene tension, coherent plotting, and so on. Unfortunately, Last Exile just does not hold up. The show was okay up until the Silvana's first battle with the Urbanus at the Dragon's Fangs. After that, the show begins to break down. Characters we were supposed to take seriously as adult military officers begin acting like indecisive manbabies. The mystery boxes are not paid off in a timely manner and have unsatisfying reveals. Things happen for no apparent reason. Why are there thousands of people evacuating onto rockets in the middle of nowhere, that then launch and crash? No clue. Why is Alvis and Exile so important? No clue. Why isn't the Guild doing anything to stop the Alliance when they are clearly massing for an attack? The fact that the engine compartments of ships in this setting were sealed off and contained guild personnel was not apparent until the last few episodes. Why did Luciolla put the suicide ring on? Why was the Maestro able to control Exile without Alvis or the last stanza? Why does Alvis have the power to control Exile anyway? If Exile was a colony ship then shouldn't everyone on the planet be descended from the colonists and should be able to control Exile? Why was Exile covered in a shell and floating around in the Grand Stream in the first place? And so on. I've heard that the sequel series is "worse" and often viewed as noncanon by fans, but I am curious as to how it could possibly be worse than the first. |
