If I had to summarise my thoughts of the final episode of Kannagi in one word, it would be superb. The episode had great storytelling, everything from Jin’s resignation to losing Nagi to Tsugumi’s futile efforts to win Jin was depicted proficiently. Above all, I am utterly amazed as to how this adaptation managed to make the sharp switch from comedy to drama.

Tsugumi’s love for Jin often goes unnoticed. Despite that, she tries her best to win Jin’s heart, that itself is amazing in my opinion. Nevertheless, I thought it was great to leave Tsugumi’s relationship with Jin at status quo. In that way, Tsugumi’s situation, probably something many people would have experienced before, would be highlighted, hence allowing for viewers’ pity.

There has to be a second season with the great dvd sales and the mangaka being well enough to draw. In addition, several questions still remain of which the more prominent ones, the identity of the other Nagi and the reason for Nagi’s memory lapse. These factors increase the likelihood of a sequel, something which I am definitely looking foward to.
