Although I felt that after Reki had her Day of Flight, everything shown afterwards was almost pointless to show. We already get the impression that life would just go on, and ending the show on a dramatic scene, rather than trailing off with meaningless "happily ever after" scenes feels like they lessen the impact of Reki leaving.

I also would have liked if they'd explained more about the world itself, but at the same time, I feel that the show would have had to be completely different if they did that, and I'm perfectly fine with things the way they are.

Overall the show felt like it had good pacing, the art was beautiful, the music fit perfectly, and while none of the music really stood out, it all fit together perfectly for a subdued atmospheric role. Even the opening and ending contributed to the subdued slightly nostalgic feeling of the show, which is something I like, compared to shows that decide to flaunt that they are dramatic by plastering us with some opening or ending designed to be over the top in the drama. You'd never guess what the show was about, just watching the opening (though with the lyric of the ending, you could figure out that it was going to have some drama.)

Either way, yet another great show that managed t bring a tear to my eyes... I'm such a sucker for emotional anime...
