Humans and Dragons (Life expectancy)

There is an unconfirmed rumour, that author planned something like that.
Even Tohru's father told Kobayashi to "Take care of Tohru while her lifespan allows", so author is obviously setting up for that.

Don't think the story will cover the death of Kobayashi, Saikawa and/or other humans in general. It certainly makes us aware that the sad ending is inevitable for the dragons eventually, but something tells me the author will end things on a warm, happy, wholesome note - rather than a grim, depressing note with Tooru/other dragons grieving near a tombstone.

Heck, maybe Kobayashi will eventually give in and marry Tooru and they'll end the story with "until death do us part" vow in a church or something.

If not, then we'll get a family photo of all dragons and humans smiling in a picture, with a narration full of positivity in the background.

Well, that's how I envision it.
