AURON570 (Level 15)

I'm not sure whether this last episode can be considered a separate arc. So I was right! >> Before I started watching the series I was wondering how they would wrap it all together, and here they did it! I didn't really like the idea of the obsessive girl (Risa) intervening in all of Junichi's relationships. It's like she was playing God. o_O (or as if it was all a GAME!!! ;D) Which is really disturbing if you think about it. It's like a huge slap in the face, like hey remember the past 24 episodes and the relationships that developed during them, well guess what! they were all interrupted by some other girl who you don't know about! YEAH! It felt sort of cheap..
 
So, since it was only one episode, I didn't get the feeling like they were trying to develop an actual love relationship between Junichi and Risa. It was obviously more of a conclusion episode. Where we finally meet the girl that ditched Junichi on the Christmas date, and we find out the truth behind why she never showed up. Even though at the end of the episode Junichi and Risa are both like, "I love you let's do our best to be boyfriend and girlfriend," it was more troubling than anything. I mean, as I mentioned, we've just watched relationships develop between Junichi and 6 other different girls (not at the same time of course). But in the end you can only really have one. Maybe the lesson is you can love anyone if you put enough effort into it.
 
Junichi doesn't even seem bothered that all his possible relationships were cut off! Maybe instead the lesson is that man will settle for anything? *shrugs*. Anyways this series has been interesting, each Arc was interesting in its own way, animations was good, cuteness was not overdone, music fits well. If I had to rate the series I'd give it an 8.5/10... This last episode leaves me troubled..
 
P.S. Apparently there is an OVA coming out featuring the sister (Miya). April 20, 2011. I'm not expecting much, but I'll probably watch it anyways.
