Gunslinger Girl Omnibus 6 by Yu Aida
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
For a "final" volume, this was sad. By sad, I mean pathetic, even by anime/manga standards.
I knew that
I would have felt better about the series if Aida had shown the Welfare Agency
This really felt like a pen-ultimate volume. But as is the case with many manga, the author doesn't know how to end it, and so they don't. When I first got into anime, I thought they ended most anime the way they do because of some sort of cool "eastern philosophy" thingy. Now I realize they are just lazy and can't be bothered to wrap things up.
And most of the time, that doesn't bother me. But for this manga, it really did. I think some of that was because I wanted the sacrifices the girls had made throughout the series to be given the honor and respect they deserved. Instead, they are discarded like ragdolls...
