I was a little disappointed that we never saw the reunion between Shion and Karan or learned the identity of Shion’s baby, and I would have liked to have gotten some sort of indication as to just what No. I’ll give BONES credit, it was certainly a breathtakingly fast-paced finale. Did I miss anything? I would have used more punctuation and paragraph breaks, but the show didn’t use any so I figured I shouldn’t either. Nezumi kissed Shion on the lips again just to remind us this was a bromance, then left for no apparent reason except so the ending would be bittersweet. Shion himself was shot in the heart, but when ElyuriaSafu went non-corporeal, she emanated some sort of magic healing dandruff that cured Nezumi’s wounds and resurrected Shion from the dead.

Nezumi was shot at least three times and lost twice his own body weight in blood, but because Shion stitched him up he was able to overcome a perfectly healthy Shion and disable him, using a bomb to blow up the correctional facility, which in turn destroyed the city wall. Yoming was part of some sort of violent resistance that planned to overthrow the city, but was a casualty when the wasps hatched. 6 was conducting on its own citizens as some sort of way to harness Elyurias’ (who appears to be a giant wasp) power, with the help of a supercomputer called “Mother”.

6, which was trying to use Elyurias for their own power, because she was a perfect medium and would allow Elyurias to wipe out the city and reclaim it for nature. So what did happen? As near as I can tell, Elyurias intentionally delivered Safu into the hands of No. It just said “These go up to eleven!” and cranked up the volume of insanity. And I have to admire that, just as I did all along with this show – it never pulled its punches or worried about believability or restraint (certainly not restraint). 6 was as true to itself in the end as Usagi Drop was – it was overdramatic, confusing, breathlessly sincere and hilariously absurd. Once I again I find myself asking whether the helpless peals of laughter I was emitting after the finale were a good thing or not. Director Nagasaki Kenji’s response must surely have been, “All of it! Use it all!” I picture the inner sanctum at BONES during the planning for this final episode, with one of the staff asking what was left of the novels that they hadn’t used already, and, given the answer, asking what they should use in the finale.

#NO.6 SHION X NEZUMI SERIES#
6 ends on an understated, restrained and reflective note – a quiet and dignified final episode that reflected the nature of the series as a whole. Like it’s NoitaminA stablemate Usagi Drop, No. Planning to go and save Shion, she was kidnapped by the Public Security Bureau.Įpisode 8, she will used as a sample, it is unknown what kind of sample.「伝えてくれ、ありのままを」 ( Tsutaete kuru, Ari no Mama wo) In episode 6, her grandmother died and after knowing that Shion has committed a murder, she ran to Shion's mum and she then confessed her love for Shion to her. 6 in episode 6 because something happened to her grandmother and episode 6 also reveals she might have a connection with Nezumi because both fainted after hearing a song. She is also very straight foward as she asked for Shion's sperm.

She seems to be very fond of Shion's decisions, especially when she asked him what is it that wants to achieve and what are his hopes for the future. On Shion's 12th birthday, she invited Shion over and baked a cake for him also giving him a sweater as a present.įour years on, she was chosen to go study aboard to the city No. Safu (沙布) is now a 16 yr old girl living in No.
