Bittersweet Endings
« on: March 12, 2010, 12:42:06 AM »
Sad and bittersweet endings have been part of Japanese literature, not just in anime and manga. Bittersweet ending is half-happy, half-sad, It is where you can never gain something without losing another thing.

An example would be - 5 Centimeters Per Second.

Saikano would be more bitter than sweet ending unless you stopped at episode 11)

Gurren Lagann definitely has a bittersweet ending...
Honey and CLover is more nittersweet throughout, than just the ending.

Laziness, or lack of effort, can best be avoided by the effort to avoid effort in the most effortless way.
