Looks like I came back to check stuff right on time. I hope to god the wait is finally nearing an end. Is it sad when all of a sudden your goal becomes live to the day you get to know the ending of a series?

Just watch some other animes and shows to pass the time.

Alchemist007 · 2010-06-03, 08:36

Yeah that's what I've been doing. You kinda have to forget the series exists till the author does something. Anticipation of this level can cause cannibalism among fellow members!

Again I want to clarify that this image,

specifically states that the 12th novel is indeed the finale?

sirfkartik · 2010-06-03, 12:03

HI, I just finished reading Approaching Nick of Time, and I wanted to know, are there any spoilers for the 11th volume?
Can't wait for Volume 11!
PS: I can't read Japanese, so I don't the meaning of the last post. BTW, in my opinion, FMP! is one of the best series(Novel,Manga, or Anime), Right up there with Naruto and One Piece,
though it feels much more mature compared to them(That's a plus point).
PS 2: Kurz Weber is alive. His death will obstruct the Happily Ever After, and come on, he and Mao just got on! How could he die like that! It'll probably be a very touching, if not sentimental scene when the two meet up.(Any bets on him being beaten up by her?)

Everyone who passed away with a purpose, just let them go as badasses.

And from my thoughts, there'll be more deaths in the two books.

Yep, I've said it too. Going out and kicking ass while doing it is manly!!!!!! Kurz, you are a man.

sirfkartik · 2010-06-04, 07:28

Yup, that's true, but I can't help but hope for a Happy Ending for Weber and Mao. Guess i'm a softie that way, huh?

Fweedom · 2010-06-04, 15:35

I thought Kurz proved his manliness by finally hooking up with Mao. O_o

selilychidori · 2010-06-04, 15:56

Am going to quote Chidori on this one...

It doesnt make you cool to die off and sacrafice yourself! She screamed this to the top of her lungs to Sousuke during the earler episodes (terrorist taking over the plane), convincing Sousuke that being Sacraficial is totally fictional and not honorable at all...
and there was ALWAYS another way...
She'd feel horrible, guilty, and resentful if Sousuke and Kurtz would have chooise to risk their lives for her and

by her standards... was NOT a choice... "Am not going!!"

Usually in an anime, the guy would reason with her and sacrafices himself anyways! Oh no the hero!

But Chidori lampshades this and in this rare moment, Sousuke is convince to simply partner up with her and save each other's lives.

I expect the unexpected. Not this sacraficial honoring nonsence....

It's not cool or manly to die! if it happens so be it...am ensadden either way...
No one is happy that Kurtz died defending someone else...
but it happened...

Or maybe not? Who knows....

Fweedom · 2010-06-04, 16:37

In the end we'll just have to wait for July 17th.

Hobbit · 2010-06-04, 17:36

Am I the only one expecting a bad end? And it's a good thing! At least for me...

And let Kurz die in peace. He was far away from any help, or a hospital. He was in a dead city, alone and totally screwed. Nobody want's to see him like Locke...

Well, maybe we can see him alive and siding with Leonard... But that wouldn't be cool after all he did.

I actually think you are the only one expecting a bad ending. I can't see how it could be a good thing.

I agree with the Kurz part. I don't like how people hate on his death. He was a definitely awesome character, but this is a war. What do you expect. This isn't a children's book. Deal with it. He's gone.

@ Hobbit, if that seriously happened, I would be ashamed to have watched this series, and read the novels for that matter.

Alchemist007 · 2010-06-07, 08:34

Happy endings for everyone! But yeah Kurz returning in some badass style (sniping a bitch?) would be pretty cool.

Actually he's not the only one.
I also expect a bad end may fall, but at least it's my defination of "bad end" of some more major character dies......Chidori or Sousuke included.
But then will be go EVA or something else to reset everything, I can't really tell.

If you really think about it. The time restart isn't necessarily a "bad end." It would actually create a more peaceful world without all the Whispered and advanced technology. Sousuke or Chidori dying would be stupid though.

Fweedom · 2010-06-08, 23:30

The only way BOTH Sousuke and Chidori would die is if this was a Korean drama. =P

Yup, that's it. It's a Romeo & Juliet kind of story in a ninja setting. Two opposing clans in a never-ending feud and the main characters fall in love with each other even though their clans hate one another.
