| (Forbin 2005-05-09) This represents the 'True Ending' for Final Approach. The next episode the 13th is a 'gift' episode. Not to really be taken seriously but just to see the girls again. Stretch 10/17/06: Something was definitely done right, because the story comes to a heartwarming ending, yet retains it's silly comedy without trivializing itself--at least I thought. You learn a lot from continually pausing an anime and taking a close look at individual frames; for example, this is my third time watching FA, but I had never noticed the MiB carrying Shizuka's haul of gifts meant to cheer her up! | |
