I skipped episode 7, I know, but it was too much of a drama thing. And in the end, Mei and Rihito separate. At least with this one, they come full circle and you bet I am super pysched about it.

       What is memorable about that episode, besides the sadness, is that Shinobu seems to be unsettled by Lucia's continued spiral into Crazy Town. He's not a thoughtless lackey after all. Aw, he cares. It's not just blind obedience. Also, Rose confronts Shiori and warns her about the man Rihito will become. She seems to have been in the same position as Shiori and we can only assume it was with Yu-san and Shutaro.

      There is also Rihito's slight confession to Mei before she leaves. Ugh, what a bittersweet scene.

      Last episode...Mei leaves St. Lucia. She says her goodbye and so does everyone else...well, not really. Mameshiba leaves with her. So, we find her back in her hometown.( Click me... )( Click me... )
