@Shinmaru:

Mwuahahahaha!!! As much as I have sympathy for your forthcoming novel post on Clannad, I cannot help but prioritize my own desire to read it >_>

(In all seriousness, though, take your time. It'll be worth the wait ^_^)

Clannad eh? I'll definitely have to give it a look.

@Mimmi:

Oh god. I am fretting over just describing this episode -- man, I am going to have to sum up this entire series when I break out the ol' "best of the fall continuations" post when the winter season ends. I'm going to sit there for hours. :(

I just watched it again for the second time and I'm still stunned* xD It's not often one is granted such a perfect resolution to what has been a wonderful show.

* Not that it didn't move me, mind you, I just get the feeling that the ending was perfect for each individual watching the series, in different ways. For me it invoked an incredible relief and mental pat on the head after shedding so many tears and worrying it'd break my heart beyond repair.

It's gonna be hard to wrap words around the series as a whole but I will eagerly await your final post on it (whenever you're ready) and might even try my hand at throwing some thoughts out, as well ^_^

Heh, I know the feeling.
