Judging by the display time, you’d suppose this was an Oba episode. In any case, he’s proper in the midst of all of it. There’s his battle with Kenichi, his try and avert the meltdown of the Mothership reactor and the next destruction of Tokyo. And whereas it’s removed from what anybody would name a whole success—particularly after we watch half the supporting forged evaporate in a large alien explosion—his efforts aren’t in useless. He got down to save the lady he cherished—and he did, if something.
However as thrilling and action-packed as his journey could also be, the setting of the episode is. This sequence just isn’t, and by no means has been, about aliens and the tip of the world. This anime is in regards to the relationship between two ladies and the conventional lives they lead in extraordinary occasions. This episode is the fruits of their relationship, the place every little thing between them is laid naked.
As revelation after revelation flooded us all through this sequence, one query remained: How a lot does Ouran keep in mind from her previous life? Does she keep in mind every little thing, or is she merely pushed by some ethereal unconscious want to maintain Kadode protected and pleased? On this episode, nevertheless, it turns into clear that Ouran is aware of what’s coming. With the Mothership’s unusual actions and Oba leaving her at risk, it’s clear that the tip of the world she was instructed about within the unique timeline is about to occur.
On this second life, Ouran has given every little thing for Kadode. She has ignored the world round her and by no means shared the information she has inside her. Solely Kadode mattered, nothing else. But, she lastly forces herself to face the thought that overshadows her total life. She is accountable for the deaths of a whole bunch of people and aliens, and that quantity will rise to tens of millions, if not billions.
In each goal sense, Ouran is the villain of this story. She put the life of 1 lady above the destiny of not solely her different family and friends, however humanity as a complete. The result’s an evil so nice, who might presumably choose her? She has lengthy ready herself for what’s to return—and even feels aid when it comes—however in the end, there may be one individual’s opinion that issues way over her personal. And so, with simply minutes to go earlier than the world ends, Ouran asks Kadode the one query that issues: “What would you do if the world ended and it was my fault?”
Kadode’s reply says all of it. “I believe that is okay. Even when everybody on the planet had been to develop into your enemy, I might nonetheless be in your aspect. As a result of, Ontan, you might be absolute.”
Not like the one within the unique timeline, this Kadode is free from delusions of grandeur. She doesn’t fall into the entice of believing that there’s a strict perfect of justice – one which solely she will be able to see and notice. She doesn’t rage in opposition to the world and its unfairness – she doesn’t make that the core of her being. As an alternative, the middle of her world is Ouran – and regardless of the utter normality of her life, she is really pleased.
For Ouran, Kadode’s response just isn’t one in all forgiveness, it’s pure acceptance with out judgment. It might simply as simply be a confession of affection—a love that goes far past something romantic. And within the face of one thing so pure and unconditional, Ouran feels the necessity to reciprocate—to indicate her love for Kadode unmistakably: with a kiss. And, moments later, because the world as they understand it ends, the 2 ladies stand hand in hand, assured that so long as they’re collectively, they will proceed to reside.
Judgement:
Random ideas:
• I am gonna sing the tune of doom now!
• The loss of life of Ouran’s brother hits exhausting.
• I believe Ouran pretended to pee, and made up an excuse to keep away from arriving in Tokyo and dying.
• Except a short epilogue scene, we at the moment are updated with the cinema movies.
