The toys crushed me in the manga.  I simply broke down on that page.  That image hit me like a sledgehammer.  It showed so much about Nanachi's feelings, so much more than words could ever could.  That was pure devotion and love.  I did the same thing again in the anime--it showed me that the producers understood what the mangaka was doing when they included it.  

The last episode, in my opinion, is one of the best single episodes of anime ever created.  Even the one part that wasn't in the manga, the balloon rising up to the top, was stellar.  The music in that scene absolutely nailed it.  

Then there is the information that Nanachi was supposed to die but became too popular to kill (at least, right away).  I can't even imagine.  I probably would have dropped the it immediately and scrubbed it from my mind. 

I remember just groaning in pain when I saw that. Just an absolute punch to the gut. It was too much ;_;

I'm still digesting the last episode, but yeah, the quality was amazing. The part with the balloon was great. Was nice seeing a reverse recap basically.

If that's the case about Nanachi, I'm really glad the author changed his/her mind. To be honest, I was braced for her death from the beginning, since I knew something sad was going to happen, and she wasn't introduced until episode 10 or so. I'm glad that wasn't the case..she was definitely the most human character in the anime, and I want to see more of her.

And if there is a season 2 ... it certainly doesn't get any easier.
