Kamisama no Memo-Chou | Notepad of God
Lord of Fire:
Well, that was quite sudden.
(click to show/hide)I actually believed she would at the very least try and confirm what she overheard. But, she apparently trusts the guys enough to know that they're always right. Still, she kills herself, just because her brother's a junkie? Seems to me like she had been keeping a lot of stuff inside her then, much more than she was willing to show, even to Narumi, whom I believed she was quite interested in.
You could argue that they could've been more honest with her and just tell her right-out about her brother, but on the other hand, I doubt that would've made the situation any better. If she hid away all the negative stuff for so long, I guess it's only natural that she could find no other way out than killing herself upon hearing the worst news she could possibly hear (even though her brother's not dead, to her he may just as well be).

Bob (click to show/hide)Through early morning fog I see
visions of the things to be
the pains that are withheld for me
I realize and I can see...
[chorus]:
That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please.
I try to find a way to make
all our little joys relate
without that ever-present hate
but now I know that it's too late, and...
[Chorus]
The game of life is hard to play
I'm gonna lose it anyway
The losing card I'll someday lay
so this is all I have to say.
[Chorus]
The only way to win is cheat
And lay it down before I'm beat
and to another give my seat
for that's the only painless feat.
[Chorus]
MASH
The sword of time will pierce our skins
It doesn't hurt when it begins
But as it works its way on in
The pain grows stronger...watch it grin, but...
[Chorus]
A brave man once requested me
to answer questions that are key
'is it to be or not to be'
and I replied 'oh why ask me?'
'Cause suicide is painless
it brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please.
...and you can do the same thing if you choose.
This was an awesome episode. Yeah, I had to watch the end a couple of times. (click to show/hide)You see her waving from across the street, and next you see her literally pushing up daisies.
I don't think this will end in some group tree hug like a lot of shows. Something nasty has to happen, as in more blood.
Garret02:
So I finally watched last ep and my reaction is...
HURRAY!!! \o/
Also I think there might be an explanation for her doing it.
(click to show/hide)What if she was growing flowers needed for a drug in her school club? She was probably doing it for a request of her brother. So when she heard he was in drugs, she added 2 and 2 and came to the right conclusion, that she unconsciously became a source for a drug thus being indirectly responsible for ruining/killing many people lives (because she obviously knows how drugs work). So she committed suicide. Ofcourse her brother could've throw her down from the building when she confronted him during package delivery. Either way I am happy with this because she was annoying and I didn't like her. I hope she'll stay dead.

(click to show/hide)I liked the latest episode. It was really well executed, and at the end, I had the same 'holy shit!' moment. It was unexpected, and I'm happy whenever I'm surprised by fiction. I agree with the others who say it's all about how this is going to unfold. If you do something crazy like this, hopefully there's some major payoff coming. Maybe not, but I really hope so.
Before this episode, I was enjoying the anime, but I wasn't terribly interested in it. I'm really interested in anything about depression and suicide, so that helps.
As far as realism goes, I think it rings true.
