Really, Reika?

This made me giggle all the way through (er, and I was at work. Oops.)

Reading the Ichiro and Sae section was interesting for a variety of reasons, but one of the most applicable here is Sae realizing how much she and Ichiro are alike--because a couple of days later on the beach, Reika is telling Ichiro about how much he's like Sae, for almost the exact same reasons.

(Also, they have some of the best interactions.)

Yay for Sae getting braver around Gunnar. Sadly, I see the resolution of their relationship kind of like this:

[Credits roll on last episode. Goes all through the end, ending theme muted, picking up with the characters a few months after they save the world (and doing memorial things for whoever didn't survive... this assumes it wasn't Sae or Gunnar). The music ends, and it cuts to Gunnar and Sae standing, facing in front of one another under a tree, sun shining, birds chirping.]

[Gunnar holds out a shiny scimitar like a bouquet of flowers.] "I... I don't not like you."

[Sae, blushing] "...I don't not like you, too."
