Haibane Renmei - 6: End of summer - Rain - Loss

Title:Haibane Renmei
Episode:6: End of summer - Rain - Loss
Synopsis
Rakka is looking for her own room at Old Home. Winter is close, so Kuu gives Rakka an overcoat [image1] that has always been too large for her to wear it. They both missed breakfast, so Reki provides them with a lunch packet. And then, a storm arises [image2], and a mysterious light [image3] shines from the dangerous Western Woods...
Comments
(Devil Doll, 2004-01-04):
Rakka is "independent now, thanks to her good sempai"... yet noone knows that this comes just in the nick of time.
The previous episode was about entering this world - this one is about the opposite. The whole episode is as gloomy [image4] as the weather at Old Home. And once again Rakka is facing the question why there is a wall surrounding the city when it doesn't prevent this type of departure [image5].
But the most striking moment of this episode is the closing scene [image6].
