Mmm, I doubt it, but was there ever any resolution to the romance? (Ikki and Ringo, and that one mechanic girl whose name I can't remember) I haven't really been able to keep up with the manga.

Hmmm I stopped this manga halfway. With the thought that I would continue reading it later or when it ends.
However seeing that ending is probably a piece of shit I don't think AG is worth my time to re-read it from start to finish.

Ikki kissed Ringo in chapter 329, after she confessed. That pretty much seals the deal between them IMO.
EDIT: also look at the cover page from this last chapter: Spoiler for ch357:

Here are my interpretation of the last chapter
*SPOILER* FOR the last chapter ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME, this is how it all end!! I know i wasn't expecting some grand finale with ALL the question explain, but my god it felt like Oh great! didn't bother to explain anything about Ikku birth, what happen to Sora at the end, ETC. I felt That Oh great! rip us off from an ending we wanted to see (MAN this is sure starting to sound like mass effect 3 Terrible ending all over again) I was glad we see how the daily life of every chararcter was, but this was done in like 1-2 pages just like Negima where it JUST ONLY EXPLAIN in 1 page how the main are and what they do now, "NEXT PAGE". Though it has it flaw and UNANSWER question here and there, still it was a fitting conclusion to the Air gear manga and surely we wont all forget for some time and i had a great time reading this! |

A fitting end, I would say. It didn't explain everything but I'm completely fine with that. I liked the manga for what it was and it's still one of my top favorites. Although I wish we got to see more of Ikki and Ringo's life afterwards and the life back in the minami household again. Ahhh well. Good run OG! you crazy dude. I can't wait for his next manga, especially because his art is brilliant right now.

I didn't understand half of the epilogue. Some questions remain unanswered, I can accept that, but everything was all over the place. Culture festival, ~2-3 months after the massive fight. Onigiri is wealthy and has a girlfriend? Rika's mother suddenly appears, has a mechanical arm and they are in an airship? Do I have to understand that? Orca is Buccha's sidekick?

The way it ended wasn't bad. I mean most of the fans got pissed off at him with the OMG WTF YOUR NOT FOLLOWING THE LAW OF PHYSICS! It had a proper end, at least in the ending he didn't pull shit out of his ass. That's practically how i felt for the last 1/3 of the series. Its just sad to see simica get the short end of the stick. While kururu was able to get close to ikki in the end he chose ringo. Take note this is Oh Great! Who primarily does h-manga. Anyone who does H-manga you read for the art not really for the story. Just be happy Air gear lasted this long and its still better than maken-ki. Sorry TAKEDA Hiromitsu but i'd perfer if you stuck with h-manga.

And there we have it folks, an ending as confusing as the rest of the series...
but you know what? I liked it regardless and in the end I'm glad I read this series beginning to end, it was fun. Thank you Ito Ōgure! |

The way I see it, Ikki is supposed to be something dangerous based on what they're saying in the last chapter. Excluding the lack of explanation and stuffs, the ending is actually pretty good. It has the sense of closure and umm...fulfillment(?) when you've finished reading it.
Thank you OG for creating this manga and staying with us until the end ;_;

lol, OG is probably going '...FINALLY, FINISHED!!!' *collapse*
And again, an ending that makes you go ...0.o Oh well, not that it made much sense to begin with... Simca becoming a free-lancer...what the hell...
