THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The fight is okay I guess, seemed rushed but damn, Aoi is still annoying as ever.

Oh well that's that.
The twins were kinda awesome this finale tbh. ED song is also different. That's definitely Angela though.

Well and so this Anime ends.
I really much enjoyed the last episode, the fight was fine I guess but I also shed a lot of joy tears, I think this is the first Anime where i shed so many tears despite of being sad or not.

I think this episode the stars were the Ozu sisters, who would have thought that they ran through so much pain. I was really happy when they joined in Coppelion or rather it seemed like they did.

In the fight when Naruse lost her will to fight, she said while shedding tears: " Haruto, I want to join you...", I'm not sure but this should mean that she likes/loves him:



The crimson red sky was beautiful, it was awesome that Gennai-san saw it before he died.

Also the twins of Ibuki-san were really cute, I didn't expect her to bear twins.

I also liked the face of sleeping Shion she looked so cute, and even her personality changed.

In the end the choppers came and took everybody expect of Coppelion with them, and Ibuki-san and the others also realized that the Coppelion won't live for to long, so they are gonna wait for them to return. Also Ibara, Aoi and Taeko became the godparents of the twins.

And now they start to continue their mission this time not the three of them but also Kanon and Shion.

This Anime deserves 7.5/10, though I don't understand why this Anime is underrated, maybe they didn't like the drawing style but the story was top, so 7.5/10

One good thing did happen!
Well, technically two: Riku and Sora lol.

I'd just like to reiterate that shoving 9 volumes of manga into this thing was a dumb idea and pretty much guaranteed unfavorable results. I don't think I ever found Aoi as annoying as some other people, but she wasn't that great of a character either and as a full-fledged adult, she should get her act together (preach, No-Sense, preach!). I'd say Galilei took more of a dive, but this hit rock bottom a lot quicker. That said, this finale was a decent rebound though and wasn't filled with the questionable dialogue that I feel plagued the rest of the series. If I had to say something positive, I guess the art is probably its strongest suit. Then, again, complimenting the art just seems kinda silly in a season full of shows with arguably better eye candy like Kill la Kill, Kyoukai no Kanata, Kyousou Giga (TV), Nagi no Asukara, Non Non Biyori and Monogatari Series: Second Season. 5/10

Decent show. This anime will be remembered as one with a very distinctive yet fitting art style, interesting premise, but most of all the first anime where I disliked a character that was voiced by Kana Hanazawa. I wouldn't mind checking out a second season though if it was better paced.

Man talk about a lousy Christmas present.

Nah seriously, I actually liked this episode, despite my distaste for the rest of the series. Didn't have to shake my head in disbelief at all this time. The Ozu sisters are actually really cute when they're settled down, like when Shion was sleeping and when they were gazing at the newborn twins. Those names though...can't believe this of all series made a KH reference. The ending wrapped things up in a decent enough fashion.

Overall this series was, for the most part, painfully disappointing and cringe worthy with forced drama, awkward/out of place characters, and a scrambled story with terrible pacing. Even despite that though, I found some good moments that were able to shine through this contaminated series. And even though Ibara's over righteous "PRO LIFE" attitude was annoying, I feel like the overall message on the value of life was nice and was especially shown well with the birth of the twins.

Really mixed on this, with the way it was going before I would have given this a 3 or 4/10 easily. But it's Christmas and I feel like it ended on a good note, so 5/10 from me.

The Ozu sisters have been forgiven too many times and in the end, they gave in.

Beautiful series finale. The Ozu sisters calm down and join Ibara, a birth of twins, good air for last and rescue all survivors, unfortunately died Gennai. Seriously Coppelion is an excellent series.

Animes like this usually have no sequel but we got the good news of the onward journey of Coppelion:

Very nice episode, and I'm surprised Ms.Ibuki had twins. The Ozu sisters were pretty good this episode, and I'm glad they became friends with the Aoi, Naruse, and Taeko. It's a shame, Haruto could not make the final episode. I'm guessing his body was too beat up that he pretty much gave up and accepted his fate. Story wise it was good, art was decent, and the sound was good as well.

7/10 on my book.

In general I was pretty disappointed with this series, but this last episode kind of made up for the rest. Also, if the school trip continues, another season can come?

Coppelion finally ends with this finale which was just like the rest of the season...

Personally I felt disappointed. We don't become attached to the characters because we really don't get to know them really well. I didn't shed one tear on the Ozu sisters story. Dialogs are childish and the redemption of the "villains" (chief of 1st division and the sister) is almost absurd.
But I liked the style and the described universe, which is why I watched Coppelion until the end, waiting in vain for that latent potential to finally shine.

Well Coppelion tried it's best to make it into a promising series, but several flaws were present in the anime. The sound effects tbh felt "childish" when they are shooting something, Aoi is useless until several last episodes, overly bland emotional characters, and the story with it's dialogue are dry in a sort of way.

Though, I would say that the setting, art, animation, and music were promising and the characters Haruto, and the Ozu Sisters were enjoyable to watch. As a waiting person for myself at least Aoi showed some support for Ibara and her new power that she had. The ending of the season was good and I'm sad that Haruto did not make it and the Ozu sisters changed their personality.

Coppelion gives me an 6.5/10 pretty good start but it then became dull after each episode.

The anime was good. I'm a fan of the manga because i'm at vol 19 and i love it, i hope there will be a second season soon. I'm disapointed a little because the they left out 50% of the manga story. I give 8/10.

Ah I wanted to see Aoi use more of her power. The ed song was awesome, and those twins the boy and girl the president named Riku and Sora. I thought for a second they were trying to reference "Kingdom Hearts" with those names.

I enjoyed some choices in the visual department and that's it. I usually have a good eye to discern shows that I'm going to enjoy and those I'm not. I was so wrong on this one.

4/10.

I propose a little campaign to make this show get a score under 6.5. It would be hilarious.

Deym, the vice president didn't made it clear to us. The truth is... what?
  1. their life span is short?
  2. or they're not meant to come back to the new capital and should forever remain in the wastelands until they die?


I guess the number 2 was the one the vice president wants to say to them. Because that's what the coppelion's mission is.

I wish haruto's still alive, the gang is not complete w/o him. With the ozu sisters accompanying them, they're a one powerful group now.

And it's an open-ending, and there's a possibility for a second season if the sales and popularity goes above their expectations.

So, this is goodbye for them. I'll miss ibara senpai.
The whole series was not so very good, and also not so very bad... ok for a score of 6 out of 10 I guess...

I was at least expecting the sisters to finally die in this episode but oh well. The ending wasn't as bad as I was expecting it to be, maybe because I won't have to go through this every week anymore.

This seemed good at first, the first episode was actually decent but appearances can be misleading since this went to hell after that. Fancy visuals can never save any series, specially when the characters are as awful as in this Anime.

I guess that from getting a great pro which is the ability to survive through the radiation with altered human DNA living as artificial beings, they gain a huge con which is a short life span of being alive.

I bet you that Haruto is still alive. No way in hell he's dead. A little high level radiation for a artificial being immune to the atmosphere will do nothing, plus someone must have saved him since the anime liked to depict him as invincible

It also seems like the Ozu sisters are needed for something else in the future

Pretty meh anime, but some people are seriously just overreacting about how disappointing it really was.

This was a lot more subdued than I thought it would be. The trailer I watched on ANN was pretty heavy on the action. That is not a bad thing, the (mostly) quiet stroll through the empty ghost town certainly helped set the mood. The visuals of the city being overtaken by nature were beautiful and it was nice that that the show took its time to introduce the setting before unleashing any major action sequences.

Started off decent, and progressively turned into unredeemable trash. If you asked me what had happened during the past 3 or so episodes, I wouldn't be able to answer, because I've lost track of what the purpose of the whole series was a long time ago ...

Ending seems really rushed especially the part with the Ozu sisters. Some questions are left unanswered. Ozu sisters can be quite cute when they are cooled down. No Haruto on the finale eh ? Duh , he's not dead for sure. The truth is ... what is the truth ? Having short lifespan owo ?

Overall , it was a good show , wouldn't mind a second season. 7/10.

I love how every single villain changed their tune at the drop of a hat for practically no reason. How stupid can one story be? The show completely wastes a decent premise. By this show's logic, I'm going to post this message and then magically change my mind about this show twenty seconds later.

Kanon: Mwuhahahaha! I'm going to kill all of you for siding with the humans!
(20 seconds later)
Kanon: I'm sorry for everything! I don't deserve to get on this train! Now that I magically survived the grenade that exploded behind me 20 seconds ago, I no longer want to kill every living thing on the planet!

I'm kinda in the same boat. Before this Episode my rating was 9/10 but I somehow expected more from this Episode but sadly I did not enjoyed it and dropped the score to 7/10...

I probably thought the last Episode will be so epic that it was worth 9/10. I also thought that the really soon low ratings the show got from many people here were not fair but in the end I can accept when people give it something under the average.

"You and I became friends" ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS!!!!! Seconds ago she was trying to kill you........

Twins well that explains why she was so freaking big :P

Shion and Kanon's faces when they saw the babies was cute, that whole scene made my eyes tear up in joy :)

"Miss Aoi, from a biological perspective you are a full fledged adult. As an adult, you must get your act together." Thank You for those words, No-sense you rule! I nominate him for best anime robot :D

A great finale ( accept for that one part >.>), that ED was pretty cool.

Aoi and the excessive drama are what killed this for me, but because No-Sense is a boss I'm going to have to give it a 6 instead of a 5 :3

They most certainly can't sue for that. The names Sora (空):Sky, and Riku(陸): Land, are just words when you boil them down, and therefore Kingdom Hearts or Square Enix hold no exclusive rights to use either one of them.

That aside, this episode was satisfying, but doesn't really make up for the train wreck that was the last 8-9 episodes. Not the worst anime this season though. 6.5/10.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

NoSense crying was the most surreal thing, yet the most touching in this show.
Anyway, 5/10. I think Haruto could had give us a lot more, so there are characters not fully exploited.

Cast with annoying characters and excessive melodrama did not help.

This series was pretty average to be honest. The beginning was pretty weak, but it kept getting better near the end. The last 7 eps or so took place over four days, so it would probably be a better show to marathon than watch weekly.

I'm interested in checking the manga out since a lot of people who are fans of the manga didn't particularly care for the anime version of it. I liked the series to an extent, but it was probably one of my least favorite of the season.

7/10

Plus I agree, the Ozu sisters after they calmed down, were quite cute after all!

It ended kinda weird, personally... and some things happened in this episode that should've happened an episode or two ago. Oh well. I figured Ibuki was going to have at least twins because she did look a little too big to be carrying one baby. Gennai went out quietly, and Haruto never made it, sadly.

Still was a nice ride, and Shion and Kanon really helped as does the atmosphere, though Naruse was great and Aoi remained memorable. Taeko seemed to have gotten set to the side a lot the last few episodes, but her character wasn't really fleshed out, so... but we ended on a rather bittersweet note since we know what's going to happen to the girls sometime down the road. The anime did drag on a bit too long, but the atmosphere was what kept me going. It was an interesting series, so I'm glad I watched it.
