| I just want to test out the theory that the ending was to please male viewers more. That Hiromi is the ending that guys would want more then Noe. It's just a theory of my. please vote honestly. |

| I am female and I'm a huuuuge Noe fan and I wasn't exactly rooting for either girl but I guess I could say that was rooting for Hiromi |

| Male, rooted for Hiromi. Not that I had anything against Noe, she was a fun character. I'm just not a big fan of the whole loli concept and she looked like she was 5. |
| More like 13. 5 year olds look younger than that :p |

| I was sad! Hiromi didn't have the inspiring personality that Noe did. Perhaps it's because I'm an artist too, and I would take the girl that inspires me to fly over one who doesn't in a heartbeat. I really wanted to see Shin'ichiro with Noe in the end, even after it looked like the decision was made when Jun and Hiromi crashed the bike. Even still, it was a hell of a ride, and one of my new favourites. |

They see me trollin', they hatin'. |
| So, in other words, what you're saying, OP, is that females are unable to tell if a character has down syndrome or not. I'm sorry, Hiromi wasn't the most amazing girl in anime, but Noe obviously had a few fucking screws loose. |

naikou said: wtf. No aiko option? aiko doesn't stand a chance at all ...i felt rlly bad for aiko cuz she didn't even get what she want in life ..she was desperatly in love with shin ..so many ppl hated aiko but why ?she's not as bad as everyone is making her out to be ..for me aiko is the girl with the ill-fate ..the who keeps on fighting with her destiny to get in the mix with both heromi and noe ..sure ,she made mistakes and hurted nabuse ..but the gurl was truly suffering from the guilt of lyin to both guys and having severe feelings for shin ..she doesn't say NO to nabuse whenever he askes her to do something ..she stayed with nabuse but was troubled beacuse of the guilt ..and i don't think she's rlly happy ..she has't told nabuse a bout the kiss ..poor gurl (she suffering because of the guilt always have been ,always will be ) her love for shin was soooo unhealthy ..anyone agrees with me ... |
| heromi is the one shin loves |
| Right...so that would be a bad ending if he choose Noe...Like Ichigo 100% The main thing that is certain is most of the girls on MAL who have seen the show actaly rooted for Noe... |

| NOE!!! |
| I'm a male and I rooted Noe, despite her being slightly mentally retarded. Sorry, shes a great character, but she is retarded. Hiromi is so emotionally secluded that in the end she seemed like a real bitch when she finally started showing some emotions. |

| Noe can considered crazy, but not in the classical way...she's just childish with some weird toughts... And Hiromi...yeah she's emotionaly secluded and not willing to tell anyone(most importatly to Shin) that she loves Shin.Her denial caused incalculable disturbtion(gf switch:P). After Shin and Hiromi's love come true Hiromi becomes possessive, so it's not a surprise that she asked Noe to stay away from Shin...and why she's a bitch?Because she's somewhat rude to Noe? In the real world what kind of reaction you exept from a love rival? She's lost so Hiromi askes her to give up, to prevent the further harm for both of them... |
| |
| If you had a high school girl who climbed trees, and followed you around trying to feed you bird seed(genuinely wanting you to eat it). And constantly talking about flying and tears being taken. Would you honestly say she's just childish? I'm not giving her any breaks because it's a anime, if she was in the real world, behaving that way, she would be classified as being mentally challenged. I can't honestly say "their love came true" Before she made that statement. More like "She was finally ready to start showing her feelings" I believe the kiss came before that, but it wasn't initiated by shin. Shin at this point was still confused as to his feelings. He honestly did love Noe. To me HIromi was more of a infatuation with a ideal rather then a person, and imho they have terrible potential as a couple. And yes, even in love rivalry there can be a bitch. Take a look at tale of memories, would you call the childhood friend a bitch(notice it's always the childhood friend that freaks out. Shuffle too) Where he goes out, and she deletes all the other girls messages off his phone? That's a real bitch move, being love rivals doesn't place you above judgement. |

And noe and him actually developing a relationship rather than the much less satisfying omg childhood friend repressed emotions go go. noe is very weird but she's not retarded..she was muture more than hiromi and aiko and she was true to herself as well ..ok , yes she was out of her mind at the end but that because she was hurt and was shocked to see that the real world is different than her's ..poor gurlTT hiromi is blameless ,she was hurt by her grandmother death and was wronged by his mum.what do u accept her to do ?be happy ..the poor girl was suffering a lot because of her love for shin(it was love so great a bout to pop out)and the fact that they might be siblings ..can u blame her for acting this way? and i have to disagree with u that thier love wasn't true (it was )shin and hiromi loved each other for years and years ..shin loved noe but noe was his brain,his muse and the one who got the best of him .. u said that chilhood friends freak (aiko is his childhood friend though)aiko was messed up more than heromi ..aiko was living a lie unlike heromi who was lying to ppl but was honest to herself ..aiko was the one who freaked out ..but i felt bad for this girl though cuz she a had a pretty messed life (full of lies and regret)aiko made mistakes more than heromi but i don't rlly blame her that much ..she just loved shin desperatly i guess ..the poor girl was suffering from great a mount of guilt .at least heromi didn't give in for shin unlike aiko (she has no diginity )..aiko is messed/screwed and/ill out of all three girls ..even though she knew that shin had zero interst in her and that he views her as a boy more than a real girl but went for him any way and insulted herself for him..that's just way too desperate and unhealthy ..isn't it ? if noe is retarded then so r aiko and heromi ... i don't like using the word bitch,slut,whore ...thier just too wounded by thier feelings and act out of thier minds ...i wouidn't go as far as calling hiromi or aiko a bitch (they do act bitchy sometimes )but that's due to tragic situation ..hurt ,sad and very confused ......... all three girl r very likeable characters and have thier flaws -hiromi is too emo/mesirable,noe is too innconent and aiko is just way toooooooo desperate ..i mean like rlly desperate .. that's juat my opinion ^^ and i won't change ur's |
foxy12Feb 8, 2009 12:02 PM
| to me I saw aiko as being the most normal out of the three. Just like Hiromi she had feelings for him for a long time. The difference was how shin felt. At the time she accepted shins friends confession because of Shins insistance(he practically begged her) and started going out with him. Because of this, she felt trapped in the relationship. And during the course of the show sought a way to break free. In the end she finally got the courage to go for him, sure the kiss was sudden and really hurt the friendship they had. But it was the best way for her to go forward. If she would have simply confessed and been turned down, she probably would have wound up keeping the feelings, but the strong real rejection snapped her out of it. And she actually grew as a character more than the other females. She not only got over her crush, but she was able to move on and try to look at Shin's friend for real instead of just thinking of Shin and tolerating him. The worst possible thing Aika could have done would have been to stay the way it was and just keep her feelings and keep dating the friend. Nobody was going to be truely happy this way. And unless you've been in love, you won't realize you can't just will yourself out of it. If you started to have a crush on your friend, it would never go away, and even if you were seeing someone else yourself you still can't just make feelings disappear, it's why so many affairs happen irl. You get some feelings for someone else, and you give in to those feelings, after you've been satisfied, you can think logically without these feelings, and this is where relationships end. Hiromi, I can blame for everything, first off, she never talked to the father about it. wouldn't a normal reaction to finding out someone may be your dad, and you have a brother, to be to go talk to him about it. It would have resolved all the issues asap. But i really have to wonder, besides Hiromi and the festival, we don't really see much out of Hiromi, why did Shin fall in love with her? She was very cold and distant, and avoided him. Sure he had childhood memories, but he had those too of aika, and from the way it's presented, Aika seemed to be a much bigger part of his childhood. i say they have the worst relationship, is because he fell in love with her image, of what she looked like, and who he thought she was. She practically was a blank slate around him. It felt really forced, like these two were destined to be together despite them not really even being friends for the past year or two. Noe, again is my favorite character. I really liked her and I wanted her to win. But she simply wasn't normal. You have to realize when i say she was retarded, there are varying deegrees of retardation and she is just slightly retarded. I don't mean it offensively, but it's just who she was. She was adorable though so it's easy to love her and not realize her flaws. Even though she was adorable you have to think of her mental capacity versus her age. They were in high school so she was AT LEAST 15/16. Yet she behaved more like a 10-11 year old. It's really easy to forget when your watching anime, since ages and appearance have no ties together(Watch yotsunoha) . About her being his Muse. I'll agree to this. But at the same time, she also was the only girl that he has genuinely interacted with. When did we see anything besides angst from Hiromi, not untill the very end(what she did to make shin her lapdog ill never know) And Aika pretty much was her interacting with him and him being distant. He showed genuine interest in Noe, enough to keep going to her, whereas he was avoiding Hiromi(why? He had no knowledge of the brother/sister thing, he should have been at least talking with her). |

| Hiromi was originally very cheerfull(kinda Like Noe without the her weir thinkings and doings), but after she lost her family she had become somewhat cold...not too mention that Shin's mother treated her as a bitch and even she ensured that Hiomi keep the distance with Shin.... Imagine yourself in her place...i bet very few people are that strong to remain cheerfull and carefree after that... Shin's attraction to Hiromi: If you have seen the flashbacks then it shows that they were very close friends since childhood...His goal all the time was to retain Hiromi's happiness... And Noe: the thing that brings Shin to somewhat love her is the same thing that he liked in Hiromi: her cheerfullness...she was his Muse and Angel of Love... About Noe's personality: Most of the time she shown as childish as 11-12 old...but she has pretty good insights and she seen through the most people well...So i have to say she isn't degenerated just have developed her personality in a very weird way... |

Aiko was out of the equation since quite early so its a sensible decision not to include her in the poll, I mean come on how can you root for someone even though you know for sure they won't even get the guy. I am a male and I rooted for Noe, but for me it was a tough decision to chose between Hiromi and Noe. All females hate Hiromi lol, yet males like hiromi almost as much as noe. Interesting. |

| It's realy interesting...because Hiromi is a female character who can be refered to...cuz Noe is a very rare kind of girl...So i could exept the opposite. |

Interesting. u know what, it's sad cuz she never stood a chance ..i still think aiko loved him the most to the point of abandoning her dignity...she knew she was destined to lose and she forced her mind to believe that she had a chance ,seem's like it's more of 'nabuse is happy but she's not end 'she still suffering from the guilt beacuse she still didn't tell him a bout the kiss .. i didn't rlly care for the end ..i liked all three hiromi,noe and aiko ..but hiromi is the one for him ...noe has friends now ... |
| hiromi ending with shin is the best ending in my opinion |
| I'm a girl. Rooted for Noe in the end, but didn't hate Hiromi. Didn't think Ai-chan was a bad person either. It's just with Hiromi i didn't really get why he loved her and it seemed in the beginning to be one of those idolizing-fanboyish loves. And i've never liked those, and i don't like idolizing-fangirlish loves either. In the end when Shin was saying repeatedly to Noe, that he loves Hiromi, it felt as if he wanted to prove himself that it is so. But still he said, that when he looks at Noe, his heart trembles. Which i took as sign, that she is really important to him and if Hiromi wouldn't exist he'd go with Noe anytime. Going further: Noe was his love, but the director chose Hiromi ;P |

| It's just that Shin fallen in loved with Hiromi before the story started and we've got little amount of flashbacks that only proved that he somewhat loved her as a kid too. For me that was totaly obvious that there's no competiton against Hiromi cause Shin loved her for years...Noe only had chance while Shin thought that Hiromi being with Noe's brother is the best and he should love Noe then. Still the main thing he loved in her was that she's like Hiromi few years ago(exept theextreme childish attitude sometimes). |
| |
| Noe all the way i hate hiromi >,< she ruined everything! poor jun dating such girl poor shinchirou falling in her =_= why?? she so....i dunno....normel emo quiet girl character =_= totally uninteresting =_= i really don`t get boys...what do they see in her? =_= i hate her she ruined EVERYTHIG pooor noe T_T female for nore i wish hiromi have gone away very crapped ending =_= 13 episodes end up like this ....not cool ending ruins all anime |
| Ruined? There was nothing to begin with...Shin could love Noe if he didn't love Hiromi...BUT he loved her since a long time...Noe just "striked on a momentary gap". Emo? I hate that term...every depressed character=emo? Something seriously wrong with the pople's dictionary. Well then a question: You(perhaps in the case if you were a guy) date a totaly childish girl with some messed-up attitude? I guess not. About uninteresting: I can't deny it cause people's interest varies per person. I hope no one bitches Hiromi cause they're not exactly knowing the term of bitch in general. |

Word of advice, most guys (at least guys that I know) prefer logical girls, not some girl with messed-up attitude, treat others like a chicken, and jump off a tree for god-knows-what-reason. |

| ok...may be i`m pretty hot-blooded i was just on emotions that time let`s think clearly Noe,as someone said before, is a childish girl *total agree* may be she even isn`t ment for shin ... i`m ok with them not being a couple but i don`t understanf hiromi too she was living with a guy , fell in love with him... but why did she telll she likes jun? (lying is not good) next why she made jun ride a bike in winter? (ruined bike ... not good....does she thinks of other people? exept shin? seems like no for me)....i don`t see any kindness in her X_X seriously... and shin`s strange too...he is so in love with hiromi....why did he even started dating with Noe, while he knew he could never love her? (not good too) such two unlogical characters strange anime that`s why i voted for Noe she`s caring, loving and nice i haven`t seen those qualities in Hiromi she just wants for shin to be her`s doesn`t seem like love for me just like a toy |

Going further: Noe was his love, but the director chose Hiromi ;P to be honest with u here ,i don't rlly care for this whole thread cuz i'm more of an aiko fan and i wasn't even rooting for aiko cuz i know that she stood no chance and i just wanted her and nabuse to be happy ,didn't think that she was a bad person either ,just conflicted .but i wanted both hiormi and noe to be happy as well .i don't get it though why r noe fans upset? .noe got what she was looking for (her tears )and made friends ..if noe had to pick between shin and her tears ,i'm sure she'd pick the latter-she can't have both her tears and shin .shin always always loved hiromi (read what willyvereb wrote ,he explains it better than i do )noe was there to make his heart waver .. Yuki_no_kodomo-hiromi was portrayed by the writers to be this realistic person ,noe and hiromi r quite different ,try to forget ur hate for hiormi and understand her character ,hiromi is not a bad person at all -the whole sibling lie made by the mum made her who she was ,she was not been honest with herself because of that ,she said she liked jun cuz she wanted to forget that she was in love with her own brother and yes it was mistake and all but that why she's realstic and a bout her been selfish -that a normal reaction for a girl who's madly in love like hiromi and even Ai .. as for noe -it's obvious that the majority wouid like noe cuz many ppl like prefection -noe was portrayed to be this nice,caring girl like u said and that's why many ppl wouid like her more than hiromi but still noe had some flaws which r also her gd points -she was also selfish in her own way -selfish in wanting to understand ppl and she even said that herself on ep 12(that she din't knew how hiormi,shin and jun felt ).. her extreme innocence doesn't rlly work in the real world in my opinion but still both her and hiormi were not as realistic as Ai -and i can tell that the majority hated Ai so much -noe wasn't as realistic as Ai and hiormi in my opinon .. for me i prefer the realistic characters more and Ai ended up becoming my favourite because she was real and she stood no chance -i also liked and felt sorry for both hiromi and noe ..it's was obvious from the start that he'd pick hiormi ,so why r u noe fans deceiving urselves? -shin got hiromi ,hiromi got shin,noe's journey in seeking for what she had lost came to an end -she got her tears and made friends = perfect end ..so what's the point of this whole noe vs hiormi thread when it's obvious who the winner was from the start.... |

foxy12 said: who knows XD i didn`t start a thread..so what's the point of this whole noe vs hiormi thread when it's obvious who the winner was from the start.... it`s just seems to me that hiromi didn`t even notice Shin before noe appeared X_X why didn`t she tell him about possibility being siblings earlier? she just keeps too much in herself she should be more open with Shin Hiromi had pretty much a depressive childhood , and of course it`s normal to be like that... however, i think that people should be more open with the ones they love. ...but it easily to explain why she stayed away from Shin as far as possible...she was afraid to get to close to him, wasn`t she? ....but jealosy has won X_X as I said before, it looked like hiromi was afraid to have relationship with shin , but she didn`t want to give him to Noe too X_X and that`s why she made everything too difficult that`s the reason why i voted for Noe...she`s more simple, while it`s hard to understand such people as Hiromi >,< it looked like like she made confused not even shin, but herself too did she even understand herself on her own? maybe she got tooooooooo confused...and even wasn`t in love with shin but had a brother complex and didn`t just want him to date some girl X_X her character is too hard to understand, because she almost don`t show any emotions and don`t explain anything she should remember that people can`t read her thoughts |
