After all this time i watched this one again as i was bored yesterday .
First up to say that it had a good beginning with some emotional scenes and some suspense to boot. You get the feeling this actually is going to be a big battle with some comedy in between. That ended as soon as we got to see Nue. She is the best character with the best lines but when we get to see her real form you know this won't get as serious anymore. The only good part was Ameri with her depression. The writers don´t use to its full potentional though.
The beginning of the last episode was just bad. Why did the writers kill of all excitement? The second part however is very good indeed.

Still after all this time it did feel enjoyable with a very good character in Nue. So nowadays i´ll give it a 7 out of 10.

A little long past posting time... but I only watched this series now, but my thoughts on the ending...

I guess we are supposed to assume that it is him... I mean if he kept to his oath - his whole "I will never take another wife" vow - then it couldn't have been a descendant of his (I shouldn't have to explain why  )... and if he didn't keep to it, then the ending would just be "off".

I suppose it could have been in the not so distant future... 20 years or so. They made the point pretty clear that he didn't know how long it would take for her to wake up, so it could have been sooner than expected. And there's nothing to say that the world (or at least his part of it) couldn't come to a grinding halt the day after the events in the last episode *enter earth shattering earthquake*.

Plus, I think assuming that he was now "immortal" because of his awakened powers... well, there was nothing in the show that even hinted at that as a possibility, so I'm discounting that idea.

Overall, I enjoyed this series, but I can't help feeling disappointed. Some things were a little too vanilla... a little too cliché, and the way things were wrapped up with "I was about to tear you to pieces, but hey, let's just all get along... onto the wedding in the back yard" just came across as stupid.

I would have liked for them to spend more time on filling in some background on her flash-backs, and perhaps build on a few of the supporting characters a little more. At times it felt as if a few of them were just thrown into the mix for no better reason than to take up screen-time, and just when you did think something more might develop with a character (such as with Mafuyu and her regrets of being judgmental) it just fizzles out.

At least he wasn't one of these useless male characters that is helpless on his own and never stands up for himself. I would have preferred if he were a little more "ballsy" but it was already better than many other main characters from other series.

If it weren't for the rushed feeling, and the bad ending, I would have given more... but as it stands, 6/10.

I've watched up to episode 11 and despite the general premise has been used countless time.....the Jealousy Arc....lolz. I really like this series.....and I'm glad I'm watching it all at once because if I was to watch one episode per week.....it wouldn't be good.....not much really happens in the episodes. I've thoroughly enjoyed the development of this series. I usually don't exactly root for Ameri-chan's type but what she went through and how she is protrayed in this series.....makes her my favourite character of this series.

EDIT #1:

I just watched the last episode (episode 12) and its the 2nd TV series I finished today along with CANAAN. The ending was kinda sad......the epilogue showing the future....is not very clear but I assume that it is Yuuri and Mashiro in the future where civilisation has taken a downfall.......since, it shows the guy riding on a futuristic bike.....I'm actually hoping that is Yuuri........he could also be immortal and I believe he had the same helmet.....maybe. I feel sorry for Ameri but I think she would make a good couple with the Sand dude (can't remember his name).

Apparently the anime's ending is made up of one of the route endings in a patched-up way........with the whole Yuuri and Mashiro meeting each other again in the future......there's something about Yuuri disappearing for a while to be reunited with Mashiro........it said by one of the members at animesuki........read it here -----------> http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?p=2670478

The series was good but definitely not medicore.....it was done well but rushed nonetheless.....could have been better but what the heck. Despite the ending being pretty sad......the little epilogue at the end of the ED credits gives it a happy note right at the very end.

I'm giving this series a score of 7/10.

I'm gonna go off to bed now.....I'm gonna try and watch the specials that were included with its DVD releases.

I have chosen this anime to be in my next marathon, which starts right now. I never watched episode 01 before so its all new to me.

I'm currently watching Death Note again with a friend.....we're up to episode 24....most likely finish it next week.

I'm hoping this a good series.

EDIT #1:

Episode 01 was okay....not bad and I am glad that Mashiro isn't a loli anymore....I don't think I'll be able to handle this series if she was a loli the whole time.

Well...the first Episode was quite....interessting...i guess.Not what im locking for but still.
If anyone can tell me 3 Animes with a ...at least not stupid ending, that i didnt seen...no i think only a god could do this.

Every last of those stupid"think for ur own" endings are just to much i think

what a sad series ......... nothing ood in the series after first few episode .... completely turned into loli series and hopeless comedy .... everything sucked in the end except that they didn't tried to give a very cheeky ending.

I finally watched the whole thing, and I feel the ending was rushed, we still do not know if that was him on the bike, or if it was an offspring of his, you never get a good look at either of them at the end,

but I guess since he had finally developed the full power of his ancestor, maybe we are supposed to believe he can now live forever.....

still a better ending would have been good, I will agree it should have been a 25 episode show, to give it more time for the back stories, but can't change that now,

I will just settle for what it is,

I am working on the DVD versions of this, and there are some small shorts on the retail DVD, If I get them translated I might upload them here, the first short only has two words said in it, but the second has a lot of dialog, so I have to hope to find someone to translate it, or if the group that did the series will do it,

i think it was a good series as well, there were parts that seemed rushed like the backstory of yuuri and ameri in middle school, i was waiting the whole series to see what that was about, i did like the ending though it was kinda weird how it left it unexplained how yuuri lived long enough to see civilization fall, all in all a touching series, wouldve been better as a 26 epi though

Lulz, Kid-Wolf, this series doesn't seem to popular xD

Though I get why. That half-ass worked ending, it's almost in the same league as Akane-iro Somaru Saka.

Though Akane-iro prolly had a bit more potential than this. But it's a shame they messed this up anyway, I mean, what about those flashbacks of Ameri in middle school Yuuri had? And how about the relationship of Nue and Mifuyu? Too many questions unanswered and I'm dissapointed... I mean, this is based of a Visual Novel, ýou've gotta have alot of material if you work with something like that don't you? <.<;

Though it's still a good watch for the laughs.
