      Nunca achei ninguém fora da Internet que conheça essa obra, mesmo que ela seja sensacional. Acho que o maior pecado do Anime foi n ter adaptado o final do manga, msm faltando tão pouco.

      @@ricardoschultz7136 I agree, they definitely missed out on getting the mangs last 2 volumes it would have been beautiful to see the manga ending animated. I think that is was probably hard to fit all the manga chapters they wanted to cover in only 12 episodes

    Thanks for providing the link between GLT and Schopenhauer! Was wondering about it for a while. Now I only need to find out why tkmiz referenced Also Sprach Zarathustra. It's beautiful how, while referencing some of the infamously grim philosophers (probably having read their works), Tsukumizu still delivered such a life-affirming story.

    • @notproudmexican6855

      I'm not too familiar with Sprach Zarathustra, it has been a while since I read Girls Last Tour but where was it mentioned? I'd love to check it out.
      And I agree, I'd like to believe that Chito having read at least some of Kappa and perhaps having some knowledge of Schopenhauer and Mainlander, lives in spite of their pessimistic ideals. My favorite quote from the whole story is at the very end, in Tsukumizu's afterword, "This world is so massive and complicated that many things pass us by without us even knowing. But no matter what, Chito and Yuuri believed that the joy of living would never pass, and I want to believe that too... I think that's what I had in mind as I drew this... probably" I think it sums up the message behind Girls Last Tour, that Yuuri's carefree nature and acceptance of the indifference of the world, because as long as she had Chito with her she was okay wins out in the end (as compared to Chito's endless striving to learn more about the world and later regretting certain choices she made, with Chito ultimately coming to terms in the end with the comfort of having Yuuri by her side). And it is quite funny to think that Tsukumizu idealizes Yuuri's way of thinking and living. But yeah overall a lovely story with anti-nihilistic themes
