<\/p>\n“Lily of the Valley”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Damnit, Emma<\/i>! Don’t give me hope, give me results! Give me idealised fantasy life, not realistic social inevitablity!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hakim finally tells William that Emma is leaving. William runs to meet Emma at King’s Cross station \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n
Emma<\/I> was nice, but really came thundering down to its inevitable conclusion. What is this, Shakespeare in Love<\/i>? The writers should probably be given credit for their realism, but … well. I guess I can’t fault them, but I want to<\/i>. Actually, I can’t believe I just congratulated an anime that featured an Indian prince riding an elephant through the streets of Victorian London for its realism. <\/p>\n
I’ve sort of run out of things to say on the subject: I did not understand why Hakim stayed for so long, but Emma<\/i> was not difficult. It made perhaps too much<\/I> sense, which was frustrating, when Mr. Darcy can end up with Elizabeth Bennett … Despite the fact that it was ultimately more bitter than sweet, Emma<\/i> was worth watching; you certainly won’t find a lot of anime like it. Now it’s all over, I feel weird.<\/p>\n “Lily of the Valley” Damnit, Emma! Don’t give me hope, give me results!
