Don't get me wrong, the ending was great.
From what I'm getting here on this discussion is that Tomoya was sent back in time (along with Nagisa). However, this time, Nagisa survives the childbirth of Ushio.
Some things confuse me though...
1. Were both Tomoya and Nagisa
aware that they were sent back in time? I thought this was the case since Nagisa told Tomoya not to ever regret the time they spent, and that he
made her (past tense) "so happy."
2. Was Tomoya sent back
knowing to collect the light orbs? I might be wrong, but Ushio sent Tomoya back in time so that he may do that right?
Also, I'm confused about the whole ending. I don't mean to try to sound pessimistic toward the series, because I absolutely think it is the best anime I've watched so far, but would it be a plot hole if Tomoya had known that he went back in time knowing that Nagisa and Ushio would die if he hadn't collected the orbs?
If that was the case, then I think Tomoya would deal with the future situations
ALOT differently. One thing that comes to mind is dealing with his father. If Tomoya had realized sooner that his father had a rough life sooner, then maybe his father wouldn't have turned to selling the drugs, thus Tomoya getting the job he did not get before.
And again I might be wrong, but one thing that I think is that the "Another Chapter" endings are related to the actual story arc. Because if there are actually parallel universes, then Tomoya could still obtain orbs for Tomoyo's and Kyou's happiness (by going out with them). Because as Kotomi said, the worlds influence each other indirectly.
^(Okay, that sounds really farfetched...haha)
But yeah I'm still very confused!
