| HMMMMMMMMM.... Not sure how I feel about the ending lolol. Before the ep, I told myself that if Safu was the only who died, I'd be satisfied. But then I saw Shion proclaimed to be "dead" and Nezumi sang to him and laid next to him and I was like. Holy shit. If it ends just like this, I'd be happy with it!!!! >8D and then Safu appeared. And I was like oh, great. Don't tell me she's gonna bring him back to life. And then she did. Surprise, surprise. I was still mildly content with it tho. It was a 6.5 for me at that point, but I would've rounded up...... til Nezumi gave him that goodbye kiss and told Shion he'll be alright. Goodbye kiss to that 7 LOLOL. *le sigh* It was a pretty good anime-- I liked it up until the ending, pretty much. Came here cuz I saw it was on a yaoi list, but it ended up not really being yaoi, honestly :P Some things confused me or were left unanswered. How did Nezumi know Shion's mom to be able to contact her in the first place? O_____o Like. It never showed them meeting or knowing each other in the past or whatever. At least she FINALLY ran to Shion herself in the end lmao Inu gave back the baby, so now Shion's mom got another little one on her hands, heh And the wasps weren't really explained well .-. Where did they go after coming out of their hosts? Who designed them and how are they implanted into random people? Youichi's Lonely People with Our Losses Club-- what were their plans, exactly? It didn't show his texters either lol. Even though there was that pan over to the corpse in the car, which I assume was him. Dunno how he got infected with a wasp either when he knows about them, but okay. I would've liked to see the elderly being disposed of as well, esp Safu's grandmother. It would've given this anime that inhumane horror effect. 6/10. They could've done a better job with this anime. Oh wells. |
| Watching No.6 reminds me why I left behind post-apocalyptic and dystopia tagged stuff: god, their endings are so dissatisfying. There were a lot of questionable plot moments, but...lol, we won't question it. Nezumi and Ash are so similar, I guess you can say I have a type. |

| First of all that ain't a farewell kiss! is it? There are few things wrong with this anime few things doesn't make no sense (character buildup, it's funny when it's not needed to be, etc). It was started with a good Mystery but failed to maintain the suspense and got down hill after episode 6. I really wanted to see Sion and his mother to reunite but sad they didn't think that would be needed. Seriously the ending is shit. 6/10 |
| The ending was unfulfilling and the whole show felt rushed. But considering they tried to fit 9 volumes into 11 episodes, it wasn't terrible. It just could've been something so much more with 20 episodes or so. If I'll ever get enough motivation, I may just go ahead and read the novel. I doubt I will though. |
| I have to say, the ending sucked ass. Oh god, I think it's one of the worst endings I've seen. This show had so much potential, loved both Nezumi and Shion and their chemistry. The first few episodes were so good and even if I felt that the pace was too slow during the middle ones, I was still enjoying the character interactions, hoping the plot will be resolved by the end and even though I'd heard that the ending wasn't the best, I did not expect this level of bs! What was up with that golden tornado? What was up with that stupid revenge plan by the bee? What was up with the out-of-character behaviours? Shion dies and is then miraculously resurrected by a giant wasp which came out of Safu, really? And thousands die, but who cares because the wall is broken, so now everything is alright. They never explained about the "people of the forest". And then Nezumi gave Shion a quick kiss and then just up and left. Wtf?! But this is not the only problem I have with this show. It just basically goes nowhere since most of the plot points like Shion's mother's connection to the founders of No.6, the connection between Nezumi and Safu, the rebellion that seemed to be taking place, finding out how No.6 actually came to be formed, are never resolved. Even the central theme of the show, Shion and Nezumi's relationship, is not resolved. The show started out really good but lost it's focus and it all came crashing down at the last episode. I had already decided to read the manga after this but not so sure now since I didn't like the fact that what started out as a dystopian sci-fi turned into fantasy. But I'll probably get around to it someday. Really hope it's better. |

  I want to know what it is, this 'sin' they say I've committed. |
| I quite frankly have no idea about a lot of things that were going on but I was expecting this anime to be far worse based on the reviews. I think it's good and with more episodes it could've been great. 7/10 Rat said no more goodbye kisses so why he leavin |
| Somehow, it seems that this needed more than 11 episodes to really tell the story. Not bad though. Wouldn't it be nice if it were this simple to destroy evil? |
| just wtf happened??? i have a lot of questions but i can't think straight right now. a lot of stuffs left unanswered jfc. |
| Welp, that was a confusing ending that made me feel like this series needed another cour to explain all of its worldbuilding and properly build up to this finale. Buuuuuuuut NO GAYS GOT BURIED! Yay! 8/10. Could be a 7/10, because it REALLY needed that second cour, but it's hard to blame BONES for doing their best with what they could get for a pretty risky IP. |

| I....am so confused with the ending, and it left me unsatisfied. Confused with the series as a whole to be honest. From what I'm hearing from several people, the anime is rushed and left out too many things that matter to the plot. That makes sense, because this anime is bad. I still want to read the manga, though. I still want to give this series a chance. I've been interested in this series for years and I finally got to watch it! But man, what a bummer it turned out to be. I'm really hoping the manga makes this series in my eyes turn around. |

| Didn't realize this is BL anime after that kiss scene in episode 7 want to drop it but Curious what happened to safu then she dead like that F*ck and what is that wasp thing is ? I don't get it at all |
| Rewatched after more 10 years. Still a solid 10/10. Masterpiece of anime. |
