I thought I would be more off-put by the Shuu confession revisiting this story. While there definitely are moments throughout the show that weirded me out now with the context of his romantic love, I found myself more accepting of the outcome on my second interaction with this story. I can not fathom them being lovers, even if I know Shuu feels that way. They are familial, and since they feel like the only two characters at the end that are still unsure, remain together to support each other. until Hagu fully finds her strength. At least thats how I read it. Im glad the anime ended with a scene of them helping Hagu strengthen her muscles and not something weird.
I love the scene of Hagu telling Morita that she will always be watching and rooting for him, even if she wants him to leave her behind to pursue his dreams. Maybe that can be interpreted that they will find their way back to each other and fall in love all over again once they both are settled?
Of course, the train scene really tugged at my heart strings all over again, maybe even more so now that I'm a college grad. The love the characters have for each other, yet mutual understanding that they all need to move on and separate is so powerful. It feels like Hagu's injury is finally the push the characters need to move on with their lives, after remaining reliant on each other and in limbo about their futures for so long. I forgot how devastating the scene of the characters talking about going to the beach together but never actually making it is. Only a few anime have made me cry, and I broke down at the portion of Hagu rushing to bring Takemoto the clovers even though I knew it was coming. Takemoto's acceptance of his heartbreak as a crucial chapter in his maturation is fantastic.
Also- The Zetsubou OVAS are soooo good! Def on par with the full length seasons. That show seriously has some of the best visuals of anything I have seen, and the ovas amp everything up to 100. I loved the four minute full theme song.
Yeah, it was really fun. Finally had a day for myself to take a break and do fun stuff, I really needed it.

I have been pretty well, currently navigating post-college life and deciding whats next for me. Hope you are doing well too.
