Perhaps just in the DVDs and not on TV? Or something like that, yeah...

EPISODE 10... SO MUCH WIN

Yeah yeah, I'm a little late on catching up with this (try torrenting on dial-up, super fun)

Holy crap man, you guys were right, that phone scene was massively epic. I was holding my breath for the second half when the music picked up, jesus that was possibly one of the most innovative scenes I've ever seen in anime. Just the face that they could rely so heavily on the count-down timer and strong voice actors was amazing.

Really, episode 7 and 10 have been major wins for this series. The phone scene in ep 7 was really well done too, but 10 just blew me away.

Oh, and episode 9 got me really curious as to how chihiro/renji's arc will end.

the last episode starts with a L - Love. Anyway I really love the seiyuus in this anime though when I looked them up this is pretty much their first major debut. Hope to see more of them in the future.

SECOND TO LAST EPISODE! And yes, this whole episode was all about Renji and Chihiro. And this episode was....wow!
Spoiler :
The novel is done, and Chihiro said to Renji that she'll do anything for him. Renji then asked her out on a date. She then told him to read the novel once they're done with their date. Some very cute and charming moments occurred during the date, and while they're at the beach, Chihiro gave Renji the key to the school's rooftop. It was there where they confessed their love to each other and made amateur mistakes on kissing. :lol:

And yes, the two of them had hot, consensual sex! I'm amused that Chihiro's clothes were neatly folded when they did it. And I'm surprised that she's nicely filled out! :shock: :oops:

During the night in the library, Chihiro left Renji alone so he can read the novel; she said it was embarrassing for her to be there while he was reading. As Renji finished the novel, he ran to the rooftop to Chihiro telling her the ending was sad. She disagrees and says that ending was a happy ending. She then explained the parallels of the event of the novel and themselves on how they're very similar. It was at that moment that Chihiro said that they should break up. She the pulled out the diary entries out of her pocket and threw them out to the open. Those entries contained all the events of when she was involved with Renji from the very beginning.
How will the final episode tie things up? Unless they royaly mess up the ending, I getting this close on labeling it "Excellent". Nonetheless this so worth getting the DVDs with hopefully someone license it (me stares at ADV; it seems like the title they can do great justice to).

OMIGAWD it's out!

I'm deciding if I should wait til the last episode comes out and just watch the two together for added effect :/

It would be a nice way to finish such a great series.
