Seriously, i really liked this show, but thats as shitty as an ending can be.

btw. Nagis is drawn so much hotter since she´s a "mum". lol
Well, Tomoya wakes up at the time of Ushio's birth. He thinks Nagisa might be dead.
But she soon wakes up too.

You can always take elements from the lights, the second chance or whatever, but truth is, it really ressembles the "everything was just a bad dream" trick.
Just rechecked ep 16 and at 17'09", Tomoya seems to wake up and feels like groggy, like his mind slowly restarting. I might be wrong though. However, in today's ep, he really wakes up from a nap. So I guess it works?
