Great, seeing ya on almost every episode discussion board makes me feel I can trust ya on your opinions. And I love you so much for your screenies on every 1st post you make. :D
But hey, you didn't just... copied and pasted everything you wrote from the episode discussion board did you...? Well I guess you did, oh well.
And keep up with the nice reviews and screenies. XD


Thanks! Yeah I copy and paste but your comments are more private in a way like this so it's all cool! Go watch the subs if you just want to see what happens. They are ok but not all signs are translated like ones in German.

zStorm_Dukez said:
Sure, its cool. :D
And I'm waiting for episode 5 subs... Hope its not gonna take too long like the one for episode 4...
And I'm just curious, do ya really watch all of them anime? I mean, I see you on almost every episode discussion board I go... but you don't actually update them on to your list... Isn't that right?


I do lots of things but I will update that, yes you are right, I should do that. I am sick so I do not go outside of home..........have a weak body. Anime is sure fun, also learning Japanese culture is cool along with their spoken language.
zStorm_Dukez said:
Hmm... I do envy you for having time to learn the Japanese language... Ahhh I gotta go sign up for a class soon.
And hey, don't push yourself too hard, take your time. :D

Whew, subbed. :D
This is a great episode, seeing how all of season 1's main characters coming back. I thought they were just gonna be thrown aside this season. :p
And now I finally know where the story takes place, both consecutively in Japan and Australia. I was wondering what Mizuki meant when she kept mentioning "its really like Japan". I know its not in Japan, but I couldn't tell where, but now I can. And in any case... does Australia really have such a big Japanese population...? Guess I'll look that up.
And angel, I think you're overreacting a little about Nagi saying she is Kuze's girlfriend, cos from my viewpoint I think she was just trying to get Mizuki to forget Kuze (from what I can see from her short convo with Kuze). Just my opinion though. ^^


Good opinion but we need to see more about that. To see whether Nagi was doing that or she really was and now came back as Kuze's gf. We need more info. Interesting to see how Mizuki will take it.
zStorm_Dukez said:
Glad my opinion is agreeable. ^^
Can't wait for episode 6, especially since there seems to be something going on with Yuuko...
And I love the way they run both the past and the present together, its really well done.
Pekie said:
Nice review ^^~ have a lot of detail >.<~ but ep.5 have a litte of Mizuki T_T
angel999 said:
zStorm_Dukez said:
Hmmm... about Amamiya... I think he has the same kind of disorder as Kuze does, called neurosis or something, hence his unstable emotions.
As for Yuuko being a ghost or not, we'll hafta wait and see... Hope she isn't though.
And after seeing so many spoilers about ef, I've got a feeling that


Interesting fact in your spoiler. I wonder about that. Amamiya having same disorder as Kuze sounds bad! Yeah he might have that but again we do not know how they caught it.

It really makes me angry the lost of Yuu sister like there was something that could have been done but nothing was done. On top of that I think Yuu might blame himself on the death of her sister because they left the kettle heat on. That with the earthquake caused it to spill and thus the oil inside which is flammable.

Episode 6 is a really sad episode. Even though I kinda guessed that Yuuko already lost her virginity, this episode was still able to bring out a lot of feelings and emotions.
And the graphics were really well done. I'm just a little dissapointed with no voices and people in the OP, but then gradually I realized it was to suit the theme of this episode.
Really looking forward to episode 7 now.
And now, lets move on to the explaination of tarot cards...


COOL THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT ONCE AGAIN. I WILL DO MY BEST FOR THIS CLUB........OK SENPAI! GANBATTE!

wowwww
well it seems that one of the relationships starts off close, but at the end gets destroyed by that evil evil evil art teacher. or else it may have turned out OK. and then at the other end, they seem to have broken up, yet still strongly for each other and towards the end of the episode, it seems there is hope for their love to foster.

I find the slap of Yuu was really overboard and should not have admitted to being like Amamiya sensei, I don't think Yuuko would like to even hear that name at this point.

How the hell did he seriously get in?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Episode 9


I might edit this since first time around reviews that are long but this series is so special I think it deserves a little more then let's say city hunter.

THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I have never shed tears T_T this much since first seeing Clannad but I did not feel sad during this. Knowing what that sensei did, my tears were tears of happiness because that SOB piece of ***** (will not even go any further as the hate is too much) is finally DEAD! That's right! He is burned by the catholic fires of hell's punishment.

In Japanese they call it Ten Batsu! T_T Finally I am able to sleep well tonight after finishing this.

So Amamiya sensei's trigger was a portrait of Yuuko by Yuu. Well finally someone pushed the magical button! :D Great since the sensei beat up a lot Yuu and before that slapped Yuuko+Pushed into the wall Yuuko+Made her most likely emotionally enough disturbed to cut herself+hugs her to show affection (affection my *** more like advantge of playing with ones emotions), I think that is enough. I was at the edge of my seat during the whole scene of Yuuko being abused by sensei.

The film part was a nice art touch. Nagi confrontation of Yuuko was also nice, especially during her running in front of Yuuko to confront her about Yuu.

The sensei painting like a maniac made me scared. I was also wondering where the hell is Yuu's steel pipe he was using in #7. Just one shift blow to the head would have ended things well. ;)

In any case really happy about the first part cause the sensei is dead!

The second part I hated cause Kuze is not stopping his bitching about the disease. Just stop the bitching about the disease and take the meds. After live on and not to worry about the disease that makes it way worst.

Finally I hope Mizuki
also finds great happiness.

Finally a question to all: What is the meaning behind the sudden saying of something we cannot hear of present Himura to Mizuki once she mentions the statue being Yuuko Amamiya? Please do not tell me Yuu cemented into a statue Yuuko because of something of the past.

1.Glad the SOB sensei is dead and burned to death. I had much hatred and now it is gone thanks to him being dead! T_T+^_^
2.I wonder what awaits Mizuki and Kuze on the rooftop? A happy first time? Would be nice memories to Kuze. I would know because I am virgin still waiting for such a time, just click on my signature banner it's there.

1.


2.


BTW very nice to see Kei and Chihiro once again. Wonder why Kei gives her key also? I though making a long review is the least such a nice series deserves although I have to study! Arrrrgh! Ok see you!

Oh. *highly disappointed*

But the picture in the ending theme has two people with a little girl in the middle. The lil girl has yellow hair and the other girl is Yuuko, and the other person sort of looks like Yuu...

Me too I am speechless and still not believing yet I seen it all. So hard to believe.

My review from the forums:

Yuuko! T_T OMG Yuuko T_T Right now as I finished this, I am broken in half. Drenched in tears and a mess. This one hit so much that I still can't stop ;-; Yuuko!

After like 24hrs, I recovered enough to write something. Man this episode hit me harder than #6 ever did when I watched it. #6 was pretty bad already as it was.

The whole coloring of the episode right away made me think decay and the word die featured twice also told me about decay in my mind which in turn meant someone would die/suffer. I did not know and refused to believe such until that bad scene.

Mizuki is so cute when small. She called herself Miki back then and was terribly shaken. It looked she suffered a lot or was traumatized a lot by something.

Well the black thorns I think have to do with the earthquake and how much it destroyed.

Nagi and Yuu were nice to see and Nagi seems not to be as she used to be so she changed. I think she even encouraged Yuu in his current lifestyle.

It was very nice to see Yuu and Yuuko sleeping together. Also nice to see they are living such a peaceful life in their home.

The white scarf Yuuko made was so cute and nice as a present for Yuu. The flowers Yuu had were also nice.

When they were together with Mizuki, they looked like a family together. It was quite nice to see Yuu and Yuuko receive a letter from Kuze that he was playing in other parts of the world (Germany I think?).

Amazing scene with the violin playing and colors floating in. Then it gets better when we find out that Kuze was the one who gave Mizuki the blue ribbon and said to her she is beautiful apparently it's cute but I think deep down the love connection was illustrated at that point because Mizuki trusted Kuze right away and perhaps it may be due to his nice personality but it was there. Now that is innocent cuteness being adored! Little Mizuki :3

Then all changed Everything changed, when that ball went on the street. When those headlights appeared. Everything. Something broke within me. I know I could most likely not describe but it was something so deep that I even do not understand it well.


1.Yuuko, you will always be remembered!
2.Mizuki when she was a kid was so cute!

1.

2.


Why God? Why had this happened? Why? What for? For what? Was there any way to prevent this? Was it supposed to be like that? Should we be so fragile? I keep asking myself with tears when I see those things.

Oh. My. God.

They can NOT kill off my favorite character. No way. Yuuko's dead, and Kuze is near death. What the hell?!

But didn't Yuuko offer advice to Kei and the manga writer? If I'm correct, didn't that happen AFTER the accident? Plus it's not exactly confirmed that she's dead. I mean, we don't see her funeral or her coffin or anything right? RIGHT?!!

wowww powerful stuff. kuze's supposed death (tho i doubt as his heart beat went back up at the end) and the beautiful song made me have tears in my eyes (more than yukos death as tht seemed too sudden and rushed) and i loved the flashbacks and summarized the 1st and 2nd, with links. cleverly done. glad they didnt feel the episode with useless unneccessary stuff (ie try to complicate the storyline more). was a gd episode. cant wait for conclusion now! its obvious its going to be happy yet bittersweet, but i still love it

Episode 12 was not only the end of this season, but the entire series as well. I think the episode did well to conclude the events, albeit with a rather bittersweet ending. Yuuko is gone, but she was able to say goodbye to Yuu. Kuze is alive, but his fate always lingers. Nonetheless, the characters press on and live. This is classic ef, a mixture of tears and joy.

I think Melodies did well to tie together all the individual stories of both season and weave out the entire story. As the series progressed we saw more and more of the interactions between old characters and new ones. Overall I felt the series was wrapped up quite well.

Yep, I hafta agree that episode 12 was quite well made, it nicely wraps up the two season.
However, what I'm slightly dissapointed is that the ending didn't have as much an impact as season 1's did, my eyes didn't get teary or anything.
Though one thing I loved was the ending tagline:
"Two becomes one, and it through all eternity."
It may sound like Engrish, but I believe this is actually proper english. :P
And Ever Forever was just beautiful.
