Heartwrenching

This episode contained an ample amount of tearjerking moments--moments where I felt so immersed (whether that be angry, sad, or tormented) by the scenes. One scene in particular, the scene between Ryuji and Onizuka, hit me very hard. It's one thing for Onizuka to sacrifice himself, and quite another for him to forget himself. Ryuji's reaction to this is just beautiful.
Although I have not read the manga, I know that Kikuchi's character isn't entirely the same here. However, I don't think that the artistic license taken here is a deterrent. Others may disagree with me, but I think that the way that Kikuchi is characterized fits with how they've played him from the beginning of this version.
I am certainly interested to see the final installment of this series!
