aight, so I just finished watching Angels of Death and I want to say a few things. spoilers ahead.
while in most of the animes I tend to ship many characters with each other, in this one I don’t. It was just too peculiar and well, different. It made me feel emotions that I can’t name and the fact that they didn’t reveal everything in the end makes these feelings last.
The moment that made me cry the most wasn’t the ending or anything else that was supposed to but the scene where Ray enters Isaac’s room and finds a piece of paper where he taught himself how to write.
In this world where his only job was to kill people that came to his floor, he still, for some reason tried to learn. I wish I knew why.
I wish I could learn more about what was going on in his head his whole life, what he felt when the old man died, what were his last thoughts seconds before he was executed. Did he think about his promise with Rachel? Did he think he deserved being killed? maybe he just cleared his head of any thoughts whatsoever and drifted into the darkness unbothered?
We will never know and I think it’s beautiful as much as it is painful.
