Kure-nai – 12: Finally a Finale!
Do you love me?
That post title does not imply that this show was slow or bad, but rather jests at my severe slowness as a writer.
I won’t go on discussing all my views on the show’s entirety, so that I can save that for another post. This is all about the final episode of Kure-nai and because I ruined the final episode of True Tears at my old home blog; therefore, I cannot be held accountable for those who read on.
! SPOILERS FOR ALL YOU GOOGLE-HAPPY ANIME VIEWERS !
Summary:
Shinkurou’s reckless actions in order to save the cock teasing Murasaki have made everyone a little worried. Benika continues to defy the laws of physics in her snowmobile of a car while Yuuno and Ginko remain at school waiting for a call from him as if it is the hour after their first date. Everyone has good reason to wory about Shinkurou. He’s wandering into the belly of the beast but has forgotten all about Murasaki, for he has stopped off at the Kuhouin kitchen in order to sharpen up on his common thief skills. Outside, Lin spots Benika and the recently awoken and perfectly fine Yayoi. She catches up to the two and proceeds to cheat with her car too.
Shinkurou finally manages to get to the outers of the Inner Sanctuary once again, but this time he has met his most formidable opponent yet, an older man with no combat training whatsoever, Murasaki’s father! After hearing about how crummy Shinkurou is for not understanding Kuhouin practices, we see Benika crash into the Inner Sanctuary halls followed by Lin. Lin crashes her car and is met by Yayoi who wants to try out her new skill. This isn’t really a new skill but rather an uber rigged display of why Yayoi is in the wrong anime. Apparently, after sparing and watching Shinkurou, she was able to pick up on the Houzuki-ryuu fighting style (Sharingan much?!?). Who’d have thought that this fighting style was the one thing that could beat Ryuuji and Lin.
After Shinkurou and Yayoi lay waste to their enemies, there is more talk to Murasaki about leaving. Then Renjou and Kazuko come in to tell them that they will not be leaving, Murasaki will stay and stuff, yadda yadda yadda. Obviously, Shinkurou can do aas he pleases at this point. After s confusing exchange of words, a mean knife attack on Benika by Ryuuji, and a flippin awesome Houzuki horn slice n’ dice attack by Shinkurou, it is settled that Murasaki will get to leave the Inner Sanctuary by her own choice. However, she will stay in the Kuhouin estate in order to prove that the whole Sanctuary thing was stupid. Renjou decides to preserve the family and dissolve the Sanctuary at the same time. The one good thing about this is that he tells Shinkurou that once she loses that he can come take her. Meaning, Muraski wins either way. She lives outside the Sanctuary with the father she never got to bond with and if they decide to stick her back in, she gets to live with the boy she came to love.
And so we come to our happy ending. Or is it really a happy ending? Muraski may get to sit in daddy’s lap and hear stories about Souju before she overdosed, but Murasaki sure didn’t get to ask Shinkurou the most important question, whether he loved her or not. We get to see our answer when we get a glimpse at Shinkurou’s pedophile dream of walking hand and hand with Murasaki in a field of violets.
Thoughts:
I must say this this last episode had some serious drama and some kick ass action. Even though the drama was VEEEEERY drawn out and the action was EXTREEEEMELY short. I loved it. The whole bit about cars on snow was too much for me because the show has been so true to the physics of fighting. So why exactly was it too much trouble to research driving a bit?
The other thing would be that the Houzuki’s fighting style was utter suck up until that point. Yayoi could stop it easily in a sparring session, but Lin couldn’t stop it in real combat. Oh well. I don’t really care. If they hadn’t had won, then I would have been forced to withdraw my love towards blissmo (idk why, but I just would have).
No matter what anyone says Murasaki may not be a doll in the Inner Sanctuary anymore, but she is a Kuhouin doll nonetheless.
worst ending ever!! so basically the little girl is back to where she escaped from. WTf, hello? she still need to be rescued. If this was the real world, the cops would be all over that kuhouin place. Shinkurou is too guillible and i can’t believe he trusted a 7 year old when she is obvious too young to realize the dangers she is in. We can kiss that little girl’s virginity goodbye when she is 13 and impregnated by her brother. BAM. Seriously, WTF? was the writers on crack when they thought up this ending? Sure, let put a little girl back in a place where women are trapped in the Inner “jail” and when they are 13, they get to be raped by their brother and then never to be seen again. Yes, and let make Shinkurou an idiot so he let the little girl stay in that place when he could had freed her. This could had been the best show for me and it was going into the last episode. But i guess you can ruin a perfect show with one episode. Oh well, i guess we will never see that little girl again unless we visit the Inner Sanctuary. And even if Shinkurou comes back to save her the second time, don’t you think security will be beef up by then? i am sure Shinkuou will be killed 3 feet into that mansion. Can’t believe people think a 7 years old what best for her. She is WAY TOO YOUNG TO EVEN COMPREHEND WHAT KIND OF SICKOS HER HUKOUIN FAMILY IS. I hope she get what she deserved for not going with Shinkurou. That will teach a lesson to all the seven year olds kids out there who think they are smart when they should just listen to adults.
Let see how smart and witty that little girl is when she is being raped by her older sicko brother. a sequel better comes and it better show that she is safe and away from that sicko family or this show is the worst show EVER!!!!
@xdotx: Stop making sense. That’s my job.

@xdotx
LMFAO LMFAO LMFAO! Best comment ever. I can’t stop laughing.
@xdotx
O_O There is a point in there… somewhere.
And it was weird how the Houzuki-ryuu just became hax for no reason. Ah well, still an awesome show, especially if you compare it to the sparse offerings of the Spring Season.

Your post might have made sense if Murasaki wasn’t a hundred times wiser and smarter than Shinkurou. Shinkurou had no idea wtf was going on and he could only jab around with his pathetic arguments. He saw that Murasaki had a plan and she wanted to execute it. That’s what Shinkurou came in to do, ask her what she wanted. He did what he had to do, he played his role and went back, simple as that.
@xdotx
the Kuhouin family is too powerful, they probably own the cops, so calling them is a waste of time. Not only are they powerful, but even if Shinkurou and Murasaki had run away, they will always run away, for the family will never stop looking for them. They will have to hide forever, and that is not living… also even if they chose to run away, the problem still lies with the Kuhouin’s traditions, they will never change and continue such terrible practices. Renjou is a conflicted person, on one hand wants to preserve the traditions but he is too weak of a personality than even his son looks down on him… on the other hand he wants Murasaki to be happy but he doesnt know what she wants… so at the end Murasaki chooses the most difficult path, to stay and change things, to reshape the family’s traditions. She knows it wont be easy and Renjou knows this too… which is why Shinkurou promises that he will return and rescue her if she looses… is it a happy ending? thats left to the viewers.
