What a beautiful episode this was, so sad events but the ending was really a miracle!
Was really a sad back story from Ayu and I was really shocked when Akiko was hit by that car! Luckily Ayu as an angel healed her so they can be together again!

Up to the last episode!

Good episode, it was a little rushed compared to the remake. The imagery of Ayu becoming an angel is the only thing done better this episode.


No one else will comment below me.
So don't you dare who ever happens to watch this anime in the coming years.

This episode touched me greatly. While I do have to admit the relationship between Ayu and Yuuichi was evidently unnatural and too rushed, it was able to pack things up very well by the end of the episode and sum up things. Likely the best episode so far, in terms of pacing and development (albeit superficial). Seems like this anime will end off with Nayuki huh? I kind of like it, considering the fact that she is the most underdeveloped character throughout the past 12 episodes, as compared to the rest of the girls.

Apologies, but I am for one not the type to condemn anime based on appearances, and I'd like to admit that I love this version for what it offers. Episode 12 was the best episode thus far in terms of overall setting and development, as compared to the past 3 episodes which were awkward and highly rushed.

Another very feelzy episode, Ayus final goodbye was really sad.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

The classic did it better. Akiko surviving that accident is a lot more believable compared to the horrific portrayal in the remake. Nayuki is a lot more honest with her feelings towards Yuuichi, and she doesn't enter a state of prolonged melodrama. Also, that "forget me" scene with Ayu looked better too.

I wish wincest prevailed. Nayuki is hotter than Ayu.

It's a great episode. Too bad so much was crammed that the emotional impact wasn't as drawn out as it could possibly have been. Now I'm afraid to touch the remake.

Anyway, it's now revealed that Ayu had died. That's why Yuuichi couldn't remember anything from that time. He wanted to repress this memory.

As Akiko was crossing and I saw the stoplight, I was already screaming, 'No!' It was too painfully obvious that she will be in an accident. :(

I really love Akiko's character. She's a cool and patient mom, who doesn't look like s mom and can be a hot older sister.

It's also here we get to see the payoff for all the missed appointments and Yuuichi taking Nayuki for granted.

Anyway, looks to me that my girl Mai might end up as the winner. Ayu is long dead. Makoto is gone too. Shiori will die; we just don't know when. Nayuki is blood-related unless it turns out that that is not the case

Therefore, Yuuichi can only end up with Mai.
