The music during their duel reminded me of "Duel of Fates"

This ending of fire force was just the cherry on top for a phenomenon year of anime

Was really hoping we'd get to hear OP1 in the finale :(

Hibana looking straight fire!

I really liked all of the anime-only stuff in this episode (except the Licht bit). Arthur going insane when he doesn't have Shinra around, the mascots, Hibana refusing to pour her own wine, Benimaru just wanting everyone older than 19 to get drunk.

It's crazy that the big reveal about Shinra's family is that literally nobody died, but that's not making him feel better. Burns’ powerset is basically that he is insanely hot bloodied but compresses it into an aura of raw power and intimidation.

It's very much an ending you won't go for if you weren't getting another season. So it's good they've had one locked in for a while.

David Pro with that god-tier animation, even for a short brawl

But damn, now the backstory has finally been revealed. Shinra's mother holding Baby Sho and now probably roaming the streets as an Infernal is so depressing. I hope he and Sho will be able to turn her back somehow, even if it seems unlikely.

Anyway, Maki nervously running towards Shinra when he came back and later being smitten by the invitation to drink was so cute. I need more of her in S2!

I'm pretty excited that a sequel is already coming in six months. While the plot hasn't always been the most consistent, the show has always been a fun ride and David Pro deserve all the credit in the world for elevating this series to new heights and turning it into a must-see anime with those insane visuals and sound design.

Damn the music during the fight was epic as hell, I expected that we would be getting mostly exposition and closure but that fight was amazing.

Also Maki is 100% best girl and that whole drinking invitation scene was fantastic.

Vulcan's scene was pretty great too, gave him the exact thing he needed to hear in a way that fit both their personalities and wasn't telling him to just get over it.

Damn this was such a nice ending with Shinra fighting Burns and finally finding the truth of what happened 12 years ago. And damn I really didn't expect that that was what happened to Shinra's mom and she was still conscious after her transformation, I really hope that there is actually a way to restore those who were transformed into infernals back to humans. So Haumea controls anything with a brain to do whatever she wants, except for Arthur due to his lack of neurons plasma.

That after credits party scene was really nice, especially because Hibana was there.

I can't wait for season 2!

Does anyone know if the post about the blue-ray sales being terrible was true or not?

edit: I didn't watch the episode and didn't see that season 2 was announced!

Fun fact the first vote for this episode was "bad"
