Ok, now I’m feeling a little less emotional about the ending, I’d thought add some more thoughts here rather than in the main entry.
My interest flagged before the midway point. And I took Kabitzin’s blogging stop Ep 5 to be bad sign. But the great feedback from Erica and Hashihime made think that this series should be worthwhile to finish. And it was.
How Mari x Hagino developed was quite predictable. So much blushing it was comical. And I would have liked to have more aftermath information esp about Mari.
But I loved how the true significance of the Emiru Force Drive incident was revealed, how the school play was finished on the battlefield as well as tying the start and the end of the series plus the sci fi and the school life threads together. Needless to say, I thought it was a beautiful and such a romantic ending.
And Yuko Goto as Tsubael was a joy and a delight. All the different ways she enuciated ‘Commander’ conveyed so much emotion yet also showing how the character was still trying to keep some composure and dignity in front of her beloved Ekaril. And such fun when she taunted Mari (barbarian!) initially and her constant bickering (Urusai! Urusai1! Urusai!) with Azanael.
I got a little too tired of the blushing and slow burn story while I was watching. It seemed like the show was going in a good direction, but then I got caught up watching so many other series that I wasn’t as interested in finding out what happened with the force drive. Good to hear that you enjoyed it, though, and I was kinda surprised when I realized who the first woman was.
