Like, no effort at all he was able to start creating weapons AND managing to spar with Archer and later Gilgamesh. In the series he got his teeth kicked in basically every time he tried to fight and sucked at swordplay while he was training with Saber. Gaining his epic hero powers *snap* like that was just poorly done and this is coming from the anime genre where sudden power ups are common place. Yes Gilgamesh was arrogant but that only goes so far. He only pulled out his trump card at the last second only to get his arm chopped off. Actually, I'm pretty sure Gilgamesh's arrogance goes all the way. It's apparently even on his stat card. Plus he's from old-school mythology, which consists entirely of people arrogant enough to do stupid shit and lose their lives (or worse) because they lacked a lot of common sense. About Suzuka...at least it had a good sound track. Which is about the only mention that series deserves. | ||

So obviously I perceived the quality of both as different as night and day.Suzuka was meh, but at least ended on a decent note, while KNIM started off decent, but slowly descended into Haruto being pathetic and rage-inducing and adding more and more people into the harem. I'm talking about the manga, and not the anime as I never bothered to watch the anime after reading the manga.. KMNIM probably one of the most rage-inducing manga I've ever read especially with how it was dragged out. | ||

KMNIM probably one of the most rage-inducing manga I've ever read especially with how it was dragged out. There was nothing decent about Suzuka, though idk if you're referring to the manga or anime. Either way the whole thing was pointless since the characters had no personality or really any reason to do anything other than the 1 thing the writer decided they should do. Specially the idiot lead character. At least Haruto seemed to have a life outside of trying to be with Eba and he liked Asuka for a while, also Eba was a believable character unlike Suzuka. You make KNIM sound like white album lol, I did hear the whole thing isn't great and it did outstay its welcome but it seems to be good to a point so I'll read it until that point. | ||

First arc in KMNIM was decent, probably why I didn't stop reading it until 100+ chapter in. Then, it really starts dragging out starting in Tokyo. Never read or watched white album so can't comment on that | ||

+ Show Spoiler + I get that Nagisa died and he ended up raising Ushio after 5 years but eventually, like Nagisa, she has the same sickness and passes away from it when she is still young. At that point, I'm completely lost. Supposdly, there's another ending that can happen if he collects all the orbs in the other dream world he's in so does that mean he gets the other ending? :S While I was pretty sad that Nagisa died, seeing Ushio and him get along and his problems with his father get fixed was great. Seeing Ushio die leaving him alone again was not something I enjoyed at all Can someone please explain to me + Show Spoiler + which is the correct ending or rather if there is even one? edit: seems like + Show Spoiler + they all died. Nagisa from the sickness after she gave birth. Ushio from the sickness as well when they went outside and Tomoya dies from succumbing to his grief. Sad story I guess this is the true ending. I knew there was something peculiar about the girl in the dream world. The way she looks like Nagisa, turns out it was Ushio. | ||

The "true" ending (if you collect all the orbs in the game) was that Nagisa and Ushio live and its all good. Basically the girl in the other world is Ushio who created the world because she didn't want her dad to suffer and the robot was her dad. In the anime the dad syncs up briefly with his robot self then he still chooses to call out of Nagisa and begin their life together as opposed to his earlier wish of never meeting her so none of the bad happens. In that moment he goes back to the time when Ushio was born and Nagisa does not die and no one but possibly the MC has any inkling of the "alternate" world where all the bad things happen. So basically the true ending is supposed to be they live happily ever after. The orbs created from happiness that can cause miracles that are hinted at throughout the series basically act to allow the MC to relive his life starting from the time of Ushios birth but without Nagisa or Ushio dying | ||

If I remember right: + Show Spoiler + It was key magic. Because you collect all the lights that can cause miracle. In the other world where no one exist but the girl that is Ushio, she made a miracle happen, and Okazaki was sent back in time or something like that and Nagisa doesn't die. | ||

Her being there didn't make sense or rather, being there on her own didn't make sense to me. I guess it's one of those things to take as is. Ya, I read up and heard her saying the dad is the robot and the world is her creation or w/e her phrase was. Ya, I saw him calling her after hesitating and her saying that she was hoping that he didn't think meeting her was a mistake. I get that part but the transition seemed so odd. I mean, I figured that maybe, when he saw her die and such, it was all about thinking it or seeing into some future but then that was reversed or didn't happen so they were a family. So, you're saying that had he stuck with the idea that meeting her was the right thing from the start, that she wouldn't have died? | ||

The reply above you (and I added more to my post) explains it better. Basically the mystic forces talked about throughout the series come through for the MC. | ||

The dream was mostly created by his daughter to help him keep his sanity? | ||
