What We Really Think About Banana Fish

So... after having some time to stew in our post-ending emotions, we decided to sit down and organize our thoughts into a "formal" review of Banana Fish. Our original intention was to give off the vibe of a socratic seminar with prepared arguments and quotes... instead we spilled all of our feelings into a 30 minute video. Our past English teachers would be so proud :)
All in all, we loved sharing our reactions to Banana Fish with you guys! Thank you for your support and comments, it means a lot to us! In return, we hope you enjoy this review! We also have two more videos in our Banana Fish series! Please stay tuned!!!
Also, SPOILER WARNING FOR BANANA FISH AND GARDEN OF LIGHT (the epilogue)!!!

The only thing I hate about this show is that ash died and him and eiji are not together

Since you guys really like Banana Fish I suggest you watched Mo Dao Zu Shi (Grandmaster of demonic cultivation) and Tian Guan Ci Fu (Heaven Official's Blessing). The are both Chinese Anime anime based off of Boy's Love webnovels by the same author. The have really great storylines and characters that get really deep. The couples are incredible and every character has so much personality to them.

I really agreed to your opinion that no matter how much we wanted a happy ending for ash and eiji, ash dying was a really fitting ending for this whole series. hearing you talking about the Garden of Light hurts me so much and i started crying again while you were enumerating all the painful parts of that epilogue.
