VoE is my all-time favorite anime, but I still angst over the ending every time I watch it.

[identity profile] leinyan.livejournal.com 2008-12-15 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
ahaha the ending is the only part I dislike, actually. it isn't bad, just a bit of a let down to me.

also lol my old lj name used to be schezar but I've renamed twice since then.

My user name is two geeky Esca references in one- Hitomi of course referring to the character, and tenshi being the Japanese word for "angel" (since wings are a common theme in the show).

[identity profile] leinyan.livejournal.com 2008-12-16 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I noticed! I really enjoyed having that username, it was probably my favourite out of the 7 I've had.

[identity profile] tenshihitomi.livejournal.com 2008-12-16 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Damn, 7? I've had the same user name ever since I started my LJ back in 2001. Thought about changing it a few times, but figure it would only confuse my friends since they're used to this one.

[identity profile] leinyan.livejournal.com 2008-12-16 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
YES! I've had this one account since May 2004. I got my first rename token mid September in uhhh 2006 and I kept that name for 7 months. I changed my name to psychoticsounds but kept it for 25 days because I kept spelling it wrong :/. I picked out my next username not long after I got this back in July, but I'm making myself wait. I do think this is one of my best names, too so that is more reason to wait.

Although I have been defriended through their confusion before, I don't care too much about confusing people. Last time I didn't even make an announcement about it ahah.

Countless times I dreamed and fantasized about how they both start to miss each other desperately and somehow cross over the worlds just to be together.

[identity profile] tenshihitomi.livejournal.com 2008-12-16 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
God, me too;_; I remember watching it for the first time and being both pissed off and saddened by the ending, repeatedly saying "Oh come ON!" through my tears.

[identity profile] your-insomnia.livejournal.com 2008-12-16 12:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Well at least Hitomi admitted that she loves Van. That's really something. In some animes we don't even get anything close to that.

Too true!

Personally, I like the way it ended.

I'm of the belief that I think it's selfish to go off and do things on your own without closing ties... unless if your life really, really sucks and you need to escape for your own well-being... however, that's not the case here with Hitomi.

I would have been severely disappointed if she stayed behind. She had a good life, had people who cared for her, who worried about her, and would have always been left in the limbo of "what the hell happened?" That's cruelty and torture to leave people like that without resolution.

With Van and everyone else, she at least had closure. And no matter which path she chose she would have been able to have a content, happy life (she never appeared anguished over the decision... she seemed calm and accepting, realizing that no matter the distance she'd always love him). In the end, I thought she made the best decision.

Also, for as mature as the anime was, that ending would have been an immature copout. Hitomi wasn't selfish like that. She had family she left behind. She was still young and had a long life ahead of her. I would have lost respect for Sunrise Studios if she hadn't returned.

That doesn't mean I'm not open to fanfiction of her returning (I've read several to satisfy those shipper cravings). At least in those situations there can be more closure.

But, overall, I loved the ending.

Good points. It would have been rather terrible to leave her family and friends wondering just what the hell happened. I like to think that maybe she returned to Gaea one day when she was a bit older and ready to plot her own course in life.
