lol didn't expect that, altho I did wonder how the relationship between Kurogane and Sayuri would develop(not just if romantically but overall), never expected that turn of events simply cause she is a ghost but in hindsight that still wouldn't stop either one actually loving the other.
Would just make the departure between the 2 ever so bittersweet, which I'm now actually hoping for. I now know what this series is to me, it def is the same feeling as Smash. I was in it for the sports at first but then got to a point where I stopped caring and just took everything else the stories had to offer, mainly the romance. Expect here It's happened alot sooner than it did with Smash. Altho I prefer the potential romance here cause I like Tsubame more Also get the feeling theres a back story with Sayuri and her love life from before which I'm guessing involves a guy somewhat similar to Kurogane.

Introduce weak character > Build him up as something special > Introduce Aizen like invincible character that the main character has no hope of defeating to make him realize he really isn't that special > Train the character for 5000 chapters > Have him face Aizen character again and win through Deus Ex Machina OR Have him beat Aizen character mid-way through and then introduce even more ridiculously powerful characters afterwards. Standard shounen fare. Not sure how the series is doing now as I stopped reading after the mangaka introduced a character who basically diminished everything that made Kurogane special. Something tells me, the series won't last long enough for us to actually see them fight again anyway. Not doing too well in the rankings and you know how WSJ is. I'm thinking most of the young readers of WSJ would find it boring. 5 left.
