| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The most sad episode in saikano ;__; I didn't expect that Akemi-chan will die :( Even Tetsu-san is killed :/ |
 |
| i guess ive been watching too many depressing animes recently. saikano delivers its sadness by depictions of losing loved ones. definitely one of the best episode of the series, but saikano is rather too mellow compared to some of the newer animes. |
| Sad moment is sad :(... I feel sorry for Akemi. |
 |
| So saad T___T Akemi and Tetsu.. wow that just killed me. Feel so horrible for the both of them, dying like that. At least Akemi was with her love in the end :/ |
| That song gives me chills. |
 |
| Chise is going to destroy their hometown. Too many people are dying in this anime. I don't remember half of their names before they're killed off. |
 |
| Fantastic episode. One of the saddest death scenes. I didn't cry though. Wasn't attached enough to Akemi. |
 |
| This episode is pure tragic, although the drama is bearly there due to RediceRyan said: I didn't cry though. Wasn't attached enough to Akemi. yes, the problem which plagues this anime: poor character development. One can only help but feel terribly miserable for everything, but cannot actually feel for the characters. War is already bad enough, and they had to top it off with an earthquake...why can't they just let her live? She wanted to live, right? Life is seriously cheap, not even the most realistic of war anime can portray this so heavily. Tetsu's death I believe was the most tragic one. He just wanted to spend his last in the room he built out of memories, only to see it invaded by the enemies... 5/5 was powerful. I don't know why some people review it saying the OST was bad...the soprano solo defined the moments. |
| "If you reject me, I'll blast a hole in you!" Kanzaki H. Aria Just kidding.  |
| Very sad episode. I do feel really sad what happened to Akemi her voice actor did a great job on that :) Life can suck sometimes like in the end of the episode :( |
 |
| Well ... this sure was a depressing episode. I actually felt sad for Akemi and Tetsu. And I kind of have to agree on poor char. development, not just that but any development regarding the war aswell, it's weird just seeing enemy soldiers in a hotel room like that. Anyway, seems Chise got back on her feet. |
 |
| One of the most realistic death scenes ever. This anime is highly underrated by many people, because they watching it too superficiality, sorry I can't say it properly in English, this anime has 2nd meaning. It isn't really important with who they are fighting, this (and many other things) is irrelevant. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Damn this was such a sad episode :/ really a great dramatic episode, but so many great characters died :| Really great development though, just so sad :( |
 |
| Well that was depressing. |
| Why is Shuu looking Akemi naked when she almost dies?? I dont understand him at all. The worst character in anime history, LOL. Urahara screamo XD Worth it XD That made my night XD 2/5 |
 |
| Man, this is sad. Everyone is just getting killed off. Who's next? |
| This series is trying too hard to be sad but it doesn't work on me specially seeing how horny all the characters are. |
  |
| Whenever someone says the childhood friend always wins, I'll will direct them to this anime. One of the most striking and depressing death scenes I've seen. The fact that Akemi held back her own desires for her friendship with Chise and the way she was talking about her plans with so much hope, despite knowing that she's going to die any moment. So horrible and the whole scene captured the bittersweet contrast really well. Some tears were flowing... |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
