There's a pretty good explanation by Ren90270 (to which I agree after watching the scene several times) to start with... So remember, when your head starts hurting just stop watching (nothing personal, just good advice) Oh, and if you were confused by H2O, then I suggest you don't even start watching NGE...

I wouldn't have watched it even once if I knew how crappy its ending would have been. The anime's first 1/3rd of its plot was okay. Characters are introduced, conflicts are decided, the viewer understands most of the story. Then the middle came, and I started to become skeptical of how this anime's ending would be. I mean, Hayami suddenly makes up with everyone and now she's one of the most popular girls? She was called a "Roach" before Hirose came! And now she's popular?! And Yui just lets it go? Yui ordered her henchmen to BEAT HER UP! Now she accepts Hayami, and Hayami accepts THAT? I don't understand how this anime's characters' humanly limits can go so far for forgiveness. It doesn't happen in real life. I'm not saying that this anime is for realism, but...the characters have to seem like they have human qualities and faults! Their capacity to forgive and forget is...insane. Now the last third. This was the most ridiculous in my opinion. The episode where Otoha leaves Hirose after glomping him repeatedly and fighting this big-ass monster in some idiotic alternate dimension, made no F****** SENSE! I didn't even have enough of a characterization of Otoha to even feel sorry for her leaving! Fine, she's gone. SCREW HER. -_-;; And then Hirose loses his vision? Fine, I'm okay with that. What I'm not okay with is that he doesn't accept Hayami's family killing his mother. He has a mother-complex. WOW. That sucks. But it's believable, however childish it is. And then he beats up Hayami 'cuz he thinks SHE killed his mother indirectly? No sense. No clue what was going on, and no idea how Hirose could be so wild and violent to a girl who he loves. -_-;; And then he turns INSANE. WOW. That's the biggest twist that made me put a finger down my throat. There's so many damn twists in this anime that it's just made ridiculous. Then Hayami kills herself so she could make Hirose lose his retardation and turn back to his normal self. What. The. Hell. There was no point in killing herself. Hirose already remembered! Then the "Epilogue" as some of you are calling it. Um. Okay...Hamaji...turns out to be a father. Weird, shocking, but funny. I accept that part. Yui and Hotaru have great endings. Hotaru turns out to be a normal woman, and Yui's...become a farmer. o_O; Weird. But acceptable. Then we turn to Hirose...whose voice hasn't changed at all. His seiyuu's worst shown in the ending. It sounded like he wasn't even trying to SOUND older than before. Like...an imitation. Then WTF?! HAYAMI SUDDENLY POPS UP OUTTA NOWHERE?! NOW THAT'S JUST SCREWED UP. She DIED. DIED. When you DIE, you DON'T come back. Unless you believe in certain religions, and I'm pretty sure in this anime that no religion has been mentioned. I'm sure it seems like a miracle...but miracles can be ACHIEVED in real life. People coming back from the dead is NOT a miracle; it's an impossibility. My overall score for this anime is a disappointing 3.5/10. And in my opinion, I considered Kimikiss ~Pure Rouge~ a way more interesting anime than H2O. Especially since Kimikiss ended with a believable ending. >_>;; All of this long spiel of blaphemy in the face of H2O fans is all IN MY OPINION.

I guess you can't age when you come back to life one bit of advise they should of ended with a kiss after her coming back from the dead thing. overall it was good even without it the whole "Hayami is gonna die like her mother" thing was so predictable but the epilouge was not and just made my day oh ya i forgot about the "accept everything" part can anyone tell me how it goes? love this series I give it a 7/10 better than freakin kimikiss :mrgreen: nice ending

And Hayami was practically "welcomes" the incoming train to save Hirose from himself? (Talks about self-preservation?). Yes, twisted story indeed. And why in the first things of all, that he not remembered the damn ball that got his mother killed? God!!!!!!! All in all, this is one twisted, illogical, mangled, abused anime storyline I've ever watched. Still, watched it BTW. :grin: So in the end, 2 random shota died for them?
