| I have 2 favorite episodes. The first is indeed episode 11 of the first series. You summed it up quite well. The other being, i believe ep2 of Natural |
 |
| Episode 11 of the first series. Symphony insert is win. And episode 20 or 21 of the second. I'm too lazy to go look it up. Fox can take care of that for me. |
| The kurupipi is wise :v Uh yeah, Episode 11 of the ANIMATION is my first and foremost favourite of the series, such a beautiful episode, from Athena's singing, to the parting at the bridge D: And the episode Kurupipi above me was referring to is episode 20 of the NATURAL, the episode in which the ghost/spirit thing tries to take Akari with her, and they run thru the graveyard, before Cait Sith comes to the rescue, and I second that choice, I loved that episode... But I loved all the episodes, there isn't a single bad one D: |

| I have to vote for ep 11 of Animation too. Watching Athena sail gracefully face-first into a bridge was... special. and as for her singing... I need to find a copy of that. Also the episode of the Natural, where President Aria ends up in the alternate universe and Akari is being called sideburns, instead of pigtails... |
Gremlin's World - School Daze - The Comedies III |
| My two favorite episodes were probably Ep 2 and Ep 13 of the Natural. I liked Ep 2 because of the mood of the treasure hunt and the ... well, wonderfulness... of what is implied when they see the marks from all the prior placements of the box. I liked Ep 13 almost entirely because of Athena's line about... Beautifully touching. :) |
| Ep 11 of Aria the Animation was great. I pretty much loved every single episode of Natural, but the Gondola eps were pretty moving to me. I think above all though, Aria the OVA was my absolute favorite. It moved me to tears :( |
| i liked episode 1 and 13 of animation...cuz ai-chan was there XD |
 |
| Off the top of my head, I don't remember what episode it is, but I believe its near the end of ARIA the NATURAL. It's the episode of the woman in the Black Veil. The episode was so chilling, but it's definitely my favorite. Then again I love any of them that involve Cait Sith (I'm a big cat lover btw) ;) |
| The above mentioned episodes are indeed nice ... I like all episodes of Aria ... so i do not have a specific favorite lol ... each episode is special in their own way ^_^ ... Anyway, here are some notable episodes asides from the ones already mentioned ... (placed in the spoiler tag just in case ^_^) |

| Best episode is when Aika |
     |
| I love all the episodes featuring Athena. Gender-bending episode was great as well. |
| i love episode 2 on aria the natural (at the moment) of the treasure hunt. truely amazing - sooo funny. and also in the first season aria the animation, the one about the undeliverable letter (or something like that) as that was really really touching. shed a few tears :P and also in origination, ep 10 al-kun <3!! and of course the last one - when u see her older <3 but all the episodes are truely amazing. it always amazes me how they can make soo many good episodes out of the slice of life on mars ;D ah dear ive used amazing 4 times but thats what it is! |

| The episode of Aria The Natural when Alice is trying to avoid walking in the sun is my favourite episode. |
 |
| My favourite episode of all time was the ending of Origination. Deserves full marks for that alone. Close runner-ups are the treasure hunt episode in Natural, the good bye gondola episode in Natural, Alice's promotion in Origination, and the Al x Aika moment in Origination. However, the best insert song moment came from, indeedm the popular Animation epi 11, with hte excellent Symphony, which is still my ring tone, btw. |
| Every episode. |
  |
| Aria the Origination (Ep 6) Aria the Origination (Ep 7) |
| Alice promotion #1 Final Origination ep for the departure and timeskip #2 Animation 13 for the reappearance of Ai #3 Natural 25 for another reappearence of Ai and everyone just enjoying themselves #4 |
| I'm just a big visual novel fan but have also watched quite a bit of anime and played a bunch of games. Avatar is Mashiro from Making*Lovers and Kotori from Rewrite. |
| Last 2 minutes of the last ep of Aria The Origination, I re-watched those 2 minutes like 10 times. |
| ʕ • ᴥ • ʔ |
| I'm quite queer right now, but I think my favourite episode was the last 15 minutes of episode 9 in Aria the Natural. It's near the middle of the entire series and enhances the relationship between Akari and the company like any other episode, yet at the same time it shows that when Alicia does leave it would make a difference with the "company" (people with Akari) that would be in the company. Candles... Plus, it's one of the few episodes with it's own Music theme to it/ in the middle of the episode. Much like "Just for you" in the last episode of Animation, or some of the Cat Sith scenes I can remember; along with Origination's ending episode scene's theme. Basically, I think the musical entrance proves an important moment among important moments in Aria episodes. Improving both mood and scenery of the scene in the episode. Plus, despite Natural having a severe budget cut, I think it was the main part of the series that absorbs the audience into the world of Neo-Venezia and gets forces them to get somewhat emotionally attached to the series as a whole. Without The Natural Series (or some of the events from the Manga related to the natural series), I don't think ending of the Manga or the Origination would have had enough of an impact on the viewers. Though, that's just my opinion. |

| Really damn old post, but Origination episode 9 was easily my favourite. |
| Seeing Alice happy always calls a smile from somewhere deep within. Regardless, my personal favorite is the last episode. Not because of Alicia parting, or future Akari. I liked the sense of how it seemed as the world had suddenly stopped. Akari not being sure if what she feels is happiness or sorrow, the parting words shared between the Aria company undines, acceptance that those slow days of happiness have come to an end, yet also the future that still holds many possibilities. It is a feeling I can relate to, even if my days aren't as happy as in Aria. That slow time you take for granted, it can end so suddenly and it won't come back. Yes, that time it is truly something to value with all your life, just like Akari does. |
