Remember in Maburaho when
Kazuki split into 16 people, one for every girl in the school
?
It's too bad that the anime ended before getting to stuff like that... :)

Well, the ending there seems to be that old trope of
human beings are made up of both good and evil and that the two are inseparable
. SuperS had yet another tropey
collective consciousness
ending, so it's not surprising that they went that way.
That's certainly true, about Stars' ending. That was clearly the message, and it does make sense. Still made for a decent ending though.

As for SuperS...
collective consciousness? What do you mean?

I'd like to think it's all a big troll but creepy manga endings seem to be a theme lately.
From what I've read of the spoilers, it's not like this'd be the first time that series did that... I mean, haven't the novels already pretty much made it clear that
Kirino really likes her brother, etc.
? The anime just hasn't gotten far enough to make it entirely obvious.

It does seem true that the author likes to keep seeing how far they can go towards 100% confirming it without actually doing so, but still, it seems hard to deny...

You just don't understand the brilliance of it. It is high concept art of the finest degree.
You guys know I'm bullshitting hardcore here right?
 
I think some of you guys are anime hipsters that like to watch pretentious shit because it is pretentious.
 
Meanwhile:

[Marco 46-47]

Seems like all my complaints about the previous arc have been rectified. We have a diverse an interesting set of characters, interesting events happen and the characters are given a chance to develop. Then it's over. In two episodes! That's very efficient storytelling of the kind you don't often get in these longer-works.

Also: amazing monkey action.

Considering that most of the people here aren't even that interested in tracking down much older works, that seems unlikely.

Rewatched Eureka Seven... It's still emo as fuck

It wasn't emo
melodramatic at times sure, but it was mostly well warranted drama

So depressing there wont ever be a new season :(

Best soundtrack for any anime ever made too.

Move is good but pretty sure they didn't make the music specifically for Initial D
 
Much older works, as in how old? Are we talking about Koka Wa Greenwood old?
Ushio and Tora old? Riding Bean old? How far back you wanna go?
