Man, that was weird.
Ever see "Saikano"? About the most girly end-of-the-world anime ever. Can't believe I nearly cried.
But the ending song was really, really lovely. I'm going to have it in my head for days. "Sayonara, ishintii hito"...
I bought that original Japanese version DVD of Saikano in Tokyo last June (mainly because it was one of the few that had English subtitles). Anime is much more expensive over there. Now I have the first couple on American version DVDs. It is pretty good over all I think... it is one of those ones where the Japanese attitudes toward war and conflict start to bug me in places. Most anime that is not a big factor but in some it really bugs the heck out of me and I can't watch those shows. Saikano is not so bad that way though.
