I just finished the last episode of Katanagatari.
I fully admit to crying so unbelievably hard. I can’t believe how much this show & the character Togame affected me, and I don’t know why.
Let me just say that I feel like I am one of the few people who actually cared enough for her character and understood why she did what she did and manipulated as much as she had to. Sure it was bad, but she felt like she was compelled to for extremely complicated reasons, and she felt her remorse. If I was in her situation, I would be happy for what happened in the end as well. I think she could have brought herself to carry out what she first intended too, but I couldn’t imagine the sheer amount of regret she would have felt after wards (or maybe that’s wishful thinking?)
I wish at the end Shichika had chosen Hiteihime instead of who he did. But. I’m not sure. Maybe it’s just my blatant bias against her type of character. She was just as manipulative as Togame, yet upfront and much more haughty about it. Still, she seems to be more well-liked by popular opinion.
It feels like there is just a chunk of me gone now, I’m sure I’ll get over it in a day or two.
But
god damn.
NOTE: I'm pretty fucking incoherent atm because I'm really tired @D@
also: yes I know it's just an anime shut up shut up shut up
