What hurts is how dead the Azumanga fandom is. Every damned time I talk about this anime people tell me Nichijou is better, which is just salt on wounds.
2008 for me, I wish I could have watched it sooner. I remember 3 years earlier seeing that infamous shoe gif that was all over the internet and wondering where it was from.
This was one of the first anime’s I actually watched Lol. I think I was about 9/10? So like 2010. I only discovered show well after it was relevant lol
In sixth grade when I finished this show I got really depressed. I pretty much stopped watching anime for another year and a half, I haven't stopped since I got back into it. But every time I come back to this anime I _still_ get really depressed after finishing it. It's just so charming, more so than any other anime I've ever watched, really.
I always get really sad when I finish a anime too. I usually finish most of the anime and leave 2 or 3 episodes and watch the last episodes when I think I'm ready.
Hello stranger, worry not for the passage of time. You may just find that the magic you felt then has been a part of you all along. Keep it with you, appreciate it, and it'll be a happy life.
When I watched the last episode, I thought 'They're still together after school....I am not crying..*sniff*' but then this started with them flying in a field and I bawled my eyes out.
...With Episode 25's next-episode preview dialogue + the ED animation sequence (and title) + the "let's all have one last vacation together" at the finale; it really sets a forboding tone as to what might have happened to the six friends, no?
I was a 7th grader when thus anime hit the U.S. and it id also so nostalgic. I am awake at 4am in Mexico, remembering when I lived in the U.S. and watching anime with my friends.
I love this show so much, but when it ended I wasn't sad. I was glad that everything ended well. Osaka, Chiyo, Sakaki, Tomo, Kagura, Koyomi passed their exams, entered the universities they wanted, turned their dreams into reality and continued to be friends. *Isn't this a good ending?*
God bless Kiyohiko Azuma (creator of Azumanga Daioh), J.C Staff (a famous Japanese anime studio), Hiroshi Nishikiori (producer of the anime/The Very Short Movie), Kuricorder Pops Orchestra (composer of the OST for the anime) and Orange & Lemons (the group who provided vocals for both the opening and ending theme).
@@alkaemisp7407 oh yeah, this comment exists. I watched it, finished it, read the manga and have been on a downward spiral of slice-of-life animes and mangas that I can't crawl out of. Thanks, 4chan, very cool
I will never regret finding this anime. It gives me nostalgia back when I used to live in Japan. It has the feeling I felt back there, this specific song, I've actually heard it somewhere in my time living there. Maybe someday, I will return to Japan.
@@limmycunk9748 Once in awhile I will. It’s still one of my favorite old-school anime songs, but considering it’s been 11 years since I first posted my comment up above, I’ve obviously discovered new anime songs that I like more now, lol. 😜
I swear! I've heard this song way before I ever even knew what anime was. It sounds so familiar, and always sparks memories of when I was younger. The whole show does really... I will never forget this show.
I remember this being broadcasted on filipino television, just as noise in the background of the living room. I was kinda a weird sleeper, sometimes I'd take noon naps and would wake up at around dinner time, feeling all groggy and drowsy from waking up, seeing the ED on the television. Hell, I still recognized the OP and ED of the anime and didn't know why until I confirmed that it was broadcasted in the philippines around the time I remembered it from. Just thought i'd vent it out here. Seeing this ED is like a triple nostalgia trip, hot damn.
@@nathannathan7528 tv5 really? I thought its channel 23 broadcasting this anime I'm nit really sure because when I first watch this anime I was 6 or 8 years old at that time ^w^
good old days, those were the times that we aren't having any life problems, just waiting for these shows (Shakugan no Shana, Code Geass, FMA, etc.) Very nostalgic especially this song for me, how I wish I can go back into time haha
Ako din natamad mag engling kaya maga tagalog nalang ako hahahaha Napanood ko ito noon lagi sa animax nung inapalabas pa ito noon, kabataan ko ito, ito ying mga napanood ko lagi, kasama na Sergeant Keroro, Little Battlers Experience, Hunter x Hunter, at Sket Dance Ang sarap lang balikan ng kabataan mo hahahaha Pero ang malungkot lang ay wala nang nag uusap tungkol dito, yung mga fandom ng lumang anime ay patay na
It's always emotional going back to Azumanga Daioh and hearing this song at the end. It was the first anime I had ever watched, and I didn't realize just how special it was at the time until I tried to find other ones like it. There were some that came close like Lucky Star or Nichijou, but I have never been able to find one that captures the same feeling as this one did.
The anime has such an impact on my youth especially considering the memorable and lovely interactions between each character, the music is just perfect now that i come back to a great memory of my life.
Посмотрел данное аниме уже 3 раза и честно ни разу не пожалел, один из лучших по моему мнению тайтлов, после просмотра которого льются слезы литрами а на лице остаётся сладкая улыбка. "А ты молодец Чио освоила технику плавания! Но вопрос, почему ты все ещё жива?" @Осака
thats awesome. I rewatched it too in 2020/2021 and it was just as good or even better than I remembered. Maybe better because I was able to relate and understand things differently now as an adult.
Brings me back to my Middle school days when Yotsuba&! Was the only manga I knew existed and art club was heaven. I didn't care much for my school but I do admit that if it weren't for the fact that they had Yotsuba&! I wouldn't have made the friends I did and I certainly wouldn't be listening to this amazingly nostalgic song.
I know right! I cried at the end when they graduated because I knew that's how I was going to be in the same scenario when my graduation arrived. I also had a major crush on my teacher, so I related to the girl that had had feelings for Sakaki(I haven't watched this Anime in a long time, so I can't fully remember all the characters' names). But what I'm basically trying to say is I could relate to the characters and their moments/scenes/events, so it brought me closer. I had many laughs. This Anime played a major role throughout my middle school years. Azumanga Daioh meant so much to me and will always remain as my favorite anime of all time.
Watched the show around the time this video was posted and I loved the hell out of it. In fact, it got me through some tough times back then. Watched a good chunk of it when my brother was in the hospital for a while with a broken jaw. Helped me decompress and relax every day when i came home from school and visiting him. I downloaded the soundtrack and would listen to it on my old ipod all the time.
Oddly enough, I liked Kagura the most. Sure, she’s loud, kind of dumb, and truly belongs with the other two knuckleheads. But when it comes time, she will man up and apologize for her actions. She’s willing to take responsibility.
Life wasn't better back then. You were. Not to say we are worse now, but we're sure harder to entertain. All that said, I almost cried on this (2024) rewatch, and I haven't cried since 2003. Funny thing is that I don't remember being paticularirly emotional about this way back then, but the mind works in strange ways. One of these days some bullshit thing is going to get me, and it might be this one, since it was closest so far. I feel I get less and less nihilistic as years pass by, but at the same time the years pass by so goddamn fast I barely have time to register anything. Couldn't say for sure if I'm happier now than I was, because I've always been pretty happy, and I've always put very little value on wordly matters. Things are always (mostly) improving though, and as shit as the new generation is, we were by far worse, and I have high hopes for the future. (If you are wondering what kind of fucking arse buggering message this is, take comfort in that I'm drunk out of my mind. Also, if you are stuck in the mindset that our generation was best in all ways, then take comfort in the fact that I'm super wrong).
Literally i see this anime because the yt recomendations recomended to me the op song, and this anime make me feel with the inciative to watch it, at this moment i watch 5 episodes. is a very good anime but with a no masive fandom (sorry for my bad english)
I cry every time i hear this. I think in like 20 years when i listen to this hopefully, i will cry for like a day straight. This is probably what people who watched the anime in 2002 felt when they listened to it last year
Words can't describe how much this anime means to me. I just discovered it last year and now I've got a couple t-shirts, posters and I'm trying to get my hands on everything Azumanga related. ❤❤
Hey just a note to people to enjoy the anime, I highly recommend you check out the manga. It's HILARIOUS and there's a lot of parts they didn't animate. :3
wow, i havent heard this song for about a year and it still makes me emotional, just the thought of the last episode is enough to make me all teary :') its also emotional coz i watched the last episode the same week i left school so i just cried watching it lool
So yesterday and today, I watched this anime for the first time ever. Watched every episode. Loved it and cried at the end. Sakaki became my favourite.
A heartfelt closing song to Geibuchan and Jontron's fave anime. I enjoy the anime too having recently watched it, BTW. This song really makes you wonder!
@@trevorheartnina is he an actual white supremacist? I thought he apologized and informed himself after his incident with Destiny and clarified he doesn't necessarily view whites as superior to other races. Whichever the case, I like to separate the art from the artist when it comes to entertainment (as long as there's no continuous targeted harassment or acts of violence or worse)
I love this anime , I always liked tomo the best , my lil brother liked kagura And yomi I think , he also had a really weird grudge with Osaka for some reason lol
This anime is my favorite anime of all time! The comedy, story, all of them I love IT! Already watch this anime 2 times and it stop play this anime on Animax and I REALLY WANT TO WATCH IT AGAIN!!
I just finished the anime today it's really fun and wholesome😊....this anime have manga or not? If it have, does the anime ending same like manga or there is more chapter after the graduation😅
this was my first anime as a child because my older brother had a box set, and i just rewatched the series after 12 years. The nostalgia hit me so hard hearing this song again. I didn't realize how much it reminds me of my childhood
I remember reading this manga and loving the shit out of it. This was one of my favorites, along with my sisters for some time. So cute. I love the anime openings and endings in this!
