However, they made up for it in this book with lots of separation anxiety and angst, and a really wonderful happy ending! I loved the whole dilemma of all their career paths, thinking about what they wanted to do with their lives in the present, with relation to their pasts and the people around them, really gave the characters an amazing, four-dimensional realism that was unbelievably endearing. I almost started crying when he was crying in the rain with Yuzuki - but he's definitely a flower that would live for a thousand days! I wasn't too impressed with how Rakuto confessed his love to Sachi in the last book - after nine volumes of build up, to just sort of say it without fanfare was a bit anti-climactic. What a great series! I'm so sad the story's over! But I'm thrilled with the way it ended, an excellent mix of finality and possibility for everyone! I had a heavy heart for poor Azuma, he must really have loved Sachi to help her get together with Rakuto.
