Fate| Stay night - Excellent anime + thoughts

Recently came across the Japanese anime: Fate| Stay night. Excellent anime. 24 episodes in all, fast paced, but i would had preferred slightly more episodes to show more character background. Had been quite some time since i was so hooked onto watching anime. Somehow the storyline got me hooked.

The ending would be ... well.... *warning-might be a spoiler-avoid reading the fine print at the end of the post!!!!*

The picture is one of the main character:- Saber. Maybe i would be buying a figurine of it to place on my desk, that is, until i see the price tag for it. heh. Esp since i dont think it will come cheap, and plus the fact that i am rather cheapo. hmmmm.

Some thoughts on life, perosnal but also wish to share with anyone who reads this... unfortuately, it includes spoiler to the anime. So skip it if you wanna watch the anime 1st. =)


*Felt that the ending was rather sad, but can understand the reasons behind their actions.Although frankly speaking, deep down inside, i wanted them to be together. Why? Maybe cos i am rather sentimental? Used to cry in some sad movies, but after my brush with cancer, i cry when watching NOT that sad movies and even MTVs (Cried the 1st time i saw 童話 MTV, my eyes still tear when i think about it; Maybe it reflects how my life could have ended, maybe not as dramatic, but just as sad. Luckily only get to see it after i recovered =P ) . Losing someone you love is painful, the one who dies loses everyone he/she loves, wouldn't that be even more painful? Thus i feel that by knowing that the love for one would forever live in others' hearts, one would bravely pass on and face death peacefully. By facing death with a smile and a contented expression, wont that be the best gift you can give to your loved ones as they have a last look at you? A skill which we must learn is to know when to let go; to let go of wants, desires, anger, sadness, everything. Life goes on, do not carry any baggage, smile and move forward. Cherish the memories and the person shall live within you.

To my friends n family who read till here: Just to let you wonderful people know, i love you guys n gals!*
