Shu got over the death. We don't need to have that spelt out for us. It's a natural progression in life. We've all dealt with major life events, from being laid off to death of a family member and gotten over it eventually. You don't really need to see that to know how he has dealt with Inori's death. |

But for the sake of time, maybe we should just end the argument, because this is going nowhere, and I need to marathon another show.

While that's all an argument in favor of Souta, honestly, even if they had swapped Souta out for another character - say, Argo or Arisa - it wouldn't have mattered. Those characters don't matter. The point is their relation to Shu, and that they're representative of Shu's other friends and acquaintances. Come on, guys. The title of the series is Guilty Crown, not "Guilty Kingdom." She was, but then she took on a different role. Either way, as I said above, the core are only important as they relate to Shu. Within the confines of this series, they aren't important on their own. Why do people keep bringing up the robot family? It's not like Funnel went out on the dating scene and found a mate. Robots don't procreate, and Funnel was built by someone! Tsugumi built Funnel some companions and "children," and perhaps the series writers were using that imagery to imply that the other characters had moved on and had families of their own. Why make more of it than that?

Souta joined in with the rebellion when they got out of the barricaded area. It's arguable that Ayase and Tsugumi were in on the rebellion as well but it's not clear if it was support through inaction of if they actively did anything.

I don't know why people are thinking they are in Paris in the epilogue... People do know that the Tokyo Tower was inspired by the Eiffel Tower right? Before they show the scene of Hare's birthday party they show scenery shots with a highway sign that said something like "Nihonbashi."

So....Keido was the real cause of it all then?
If he never interfered, Mana may be cured and none of this would have occured? Without him, the Daat could not have done anything more than rail and fart...They are after all, still a human organization no? Was it the virus that trapped Mana in that unending role I wonder or was that Mana's fate anyway.... I hope she's really freed. Her lot is arguably the worst of anyone in the story, turned from a normal human into that.... As for the others besides Shoe, Inori, Mana, Gai and maybe Haruka....well they could all just go rot and no one would care.... Except for Rowan...jeez he was a nice guy....He should have used Darryl as a human shield and fled instead of the other way round And yes....Shoe should have been allowed to follow the other three into wherever they are now...After all this time finally able to put everything right again and the reunion with the people he cared most from his childhood alongside Inori.....he should have been granted just that....

Way too early. Even if the series is over, some people might discuss a bit about it as the "current trend of the moment". Every sub forum stayed a certain period of time before being put in the older series section.

If I were to view this as a stand alone episode, I'd say that it was a pretty good finale. Certainly, from a technical point of view this was everything that I had come to expect from the show. The music was top notch, with Gai's and Mana's final scene as well as the epilogue being wonderfully composed, the animation was among the best I had seen from the show as well (even if it did bug me that apparently the animators had removed any sort of restrains they had about the bouncing breasts but that's not really important at this point so I'll let it slide).
If I were to ignore how we got to this point, even the story was technically fine, if not brilliant. Gai's end was rather touching, I thought, even if his new motives don't gel with his behavior in the past 21 episodes. Inori's sacrifice was sad, if I had actually grown attached to her, I would've have probably cried that she passed away. The epilogue was nice, seeing everyone meeting again on Hare's birthday, even if I felt like that the show conveniently decided to focus on Shu's core group ignoring the fate of secondary characters that we had so much screen time devoted to them. But you know, that's fine. Really, at this point I think we reached the point where all that could be said about Guilty Crown had been said numerous times over this past half-year. I had shared my concerns about the show before it's airing, and hoped it would turn out to be better than I originally expected (a dumb but fun show, is what I wrote if I recall correctly), but for what's it's worth, Guilty Crown at least got it right on it's finale episode. 7/10 As a side note, I wonder if the folks who say this should've been longer are being serious or not ...

An extra episode would have been nice so they had time for a proper fight between Gai and Shu after Shu gets Inori's sword. The initial clash between the two looked cool but there wasn't much more to the fight after that. It would also give more time to Ayase vs Daryl. Maybe they could even have Shu actually do something to beat Mana instead of Mana selfdestructing after Gai's defeat.
