Hospital End
Sep. 16th, 2014 02:25 pmI still don't understand why JC Staff felt it wasn't necessary to have the hospital ending in there. Just, why. It's so sad anime viewers missed out on Riki waking up in the hospital and promising to take care of Rin for the rest of their lives and then Song for Friends... leaving it out was just such a shitty thing to do. =/
Episode 12 basically just took a big crap all over my feels. >_> That's how it feels to me anyway. You've got Komari saying goodbye to Rin, making her wish and disappearing... and a minute later, Rin's like "I'm gonna save everyone! :D Yosh!" Seriously. e_e Way to kill the feels there. And then they had Kimi to no Nakushi Mono as the ending. What a freaking moodkiller.
Riki and Rin saving everyone off the bat was just, egh. Back when I played the VN for the first time, I picked "Escape with Rin". I would have liked to save everyone, but I knew it would be a pointless endeavour. If saving everyone could be so damn easy, there wouldn't have been much need for the dream world and Kyousuke's struggle to make Riki and Rin stronger, would there? I was still hoping for a miracle though and I got it.
If you take the hospital ending, Kyousuke's conversation with the two, and their creating a world to become stronger together out of the equation, the good end just feels kind of cheap. Though I guess Riki and Rin did technically make themselves stronger, sort of... though with Rin, it was really just "Gee, I don't want to make Komari worry, so I'll go ahead and save everyone so I can see their smiling faces."
It was better when Kyousuke was telling Riki he wouldn't be able to do shit because Rin's so useless, and Rin jumped in, saying she'd make herself stronger too and she does. She actually becomes useful. If you try to save everyone the first time, she just stands there and watches while Riki hasn't the first clue about what to do.
