Kei Nagai Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Final episode . [spoiler=Episode 24] Migi says good bye for good this time as he "sleeps" to explore the knowledge he has gained from being in Gouto. Shinichi and Murano continue to live their normal lives but while walking around the city with Shinichi , Murano is kidnapped by Uragami. Shinichi manages to disable Uragami ,who throws Murano off of tthe roof of the building that they are on, Migi saves Murano as shinichi was not fast enough to catch her while she was falling off of the building. I feel that there will be an OVA coming soon after watching this episode. I kind of felt like the previous episode was a bit of a copout....Shinichi's normal personality has returned which is good however after his initial change, he seemed to be much stronger even without migi being awake sometimes. It seems like most of those reflexes were just sort of casually forgotten. He could see and hear better and had more endurance....then suddenly with Gouto....He is back to regular shinichi and rather useless and he only won thanks to accidentally choosing the right thing to stab him with and suddenly connecting with Migi randomly. Then on top of that, to kill or not kill g......that was dragged out and I think he should have let him live. Much like Tamara somehow developed humanity perhaps Gouto could've then learned how to tame his sadistic urges. Plus the old lady shinichi met....I liked her. But it would've been nice if Shinichi met her a little earlier instead of shoving it all in an episode or two....i'd have loved to see Shinichi trying to pretend to be normal for a couple of episodes and then remembering Migi and going back to face Gouto. But then the finale was rather boring. I can almost buy the return of old shinichi but I hated how Migi said goodbye. Why not have let Migi die protecting Shinichi. Instead we got a 'I am going to find myself' ending basically and we end with psycho killer Uragami.....which is a let down considering gouto, tamara, and that high school student were much better villains than this mess. Then on top of that......they are literally laying there after nearly dying....beside two dead bodies, just laughing. Okay then. finale 3 out of 10..... Overall season 8.5 out of 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
