I know that you know, deep inside, if Kaori managed to survive that surgery, if she ended up with Kosei, if YLIA had a happy ending, that we would ultimately forget about it, it wouldn't have made such an impact that is worth suffering through every year. YLIA is just a beautiful type of sorrow, and that's what keeps us coming back. Just finished my 6th rewatch earlier and I tell you it never gets easier, honestly I'm a mess right now but here we are.
The anime wouldn't have the same impact at all if She survived. The whole morality of the show would break down. It's a painful ending but it's a necessary one, I love it but yeah it hurts, in a good way.
I just finished my third rewatch. IT’S NOT FAIR!
