Death Parade Ending (actual review)

wow. All I can really say at the moment is wow. This... This was incredible. The whole way through, I enjoyed myself.

I loved how deep it got. With emotions, and Decim having emotions because of Chiyuki... Incredible.

And no, I don't think Decim 'got' emotions because of Chiyuki, I believed he had them all along. I believe Nona did as well, and Ginti. All of the arbiters did, and the other shinigamis. They just needed something to bring them out, and for Decim, that thing was Chiyuki.

If any of you remember my old rant book before it was deleted, I once posted a very deep chapter about life and emotions, which is what Death Parade focused on. I related to Chiyuki and Nona a lot, and even Mayu. They all believed life could have a purpose and nobody was a dummy, not even arbiters. This was incredibly insightful and very deep. I cry over a lot of things, so I'm surprised I didn't cry here.

I honestly think that Decim loved Chiyuki. No matter what kind of love you feel it was, respectful, sisterly, or romantic, you cannot deny that he loved her. She brought out his emotions. He couldn't hurt her. This, my friends, is true love.

I'd like to thank whoever made this show, or even thank the show itself. It showed me emotions, and what it means to live. I used to think emotions and love we're make believe, and that life could never exist, or didn't matter. It does.

So, thank you, Death Parade. Thank you for showing me.

Thank you.
