Takopii no Genzai Episode 6: The Final Goodbye That Broke Our Hearts (But Also Fixed Them)
Let’s cut straight to the chase: if you didn’t cry during Takopii no Genzai Episode 6, are you even human? The final installment of this wild six-episode ride hit like a ton of bricks—equal parts gut-punch and warm hug, and fans are still screaming about it. As one MyAnimeList user put it, “I THINK IM GOING TO CRY” (and honestly, same).
First, let’s recap the chaos that led us here. For those who binged the series (no judgment—we’ve all been there), Takopii is a naive, tentacled alien who crash-lands on Earth and meets Shizuka, a quiet girl drowning in neglect and abuse. His mission? Kill her. But after she feeds him a snack (yes, really), he decides to spread happiness instead. Cue six episodes of murder cover-ups, memory loss, and every adult in the show being absolutely useless.
Episode 6 dials up the drama to 11. We finally see Takopii confront his original mission—only to realize he can’t go through with it. “He finally got his memories back last episode, and yet he’s still going around saying things like, ‘DoN’t YoU WaNna SeE ShIzUkA HaPPy?’” rants one frustrated fan. But here’s the thing: that’s exactly why we love him. Takopii’s unapologetic naivety isn’t annoying—it’s his superpower. As another viewer defends, “Bro is just a young naive kid wanting to spread happiness. At least he ultimately achieved his missions across timeline to make both Marina and Shizuka happy.”
The episode’s emotional core? The characters’ messy, human flaws. Azuma, Shizuka’s classmate, steals the show with his growth—from a bystander to someone who risks everything to save her. “Even Azuma showed some actual development,” the earlier critic admits, softening a little. Meanwhile, Takopii remains the same hopeful dork we met in Episode 1, clinging to a version of Shizuka that’s long gone. But as the final credits roll, it’s clear his stubbornness paid off.
The ending? Bittersweet, but perfect. Shizuka and Marina (the popular girl who becomes Shizuka’s unlikely ally) finally find happiness, but Takopii? He sacrifices himself. “Years of neglect, abuse and naivety culminated in a sacrifice,” a fan writes, summing up the show’s heart. “There’s no changing the past no matter how hard one tries. The suffering of a lifetime and the scars that wouldn’t heal—no remedies, only reconciliation.”
Critics argue the ending is “deus ex machina” (looking at you, Takopii’s secret timeline powers), but let’s be real—we needed that happy note. “The ending is quite deus ex machina,” one user concedes, “but I can’t lie, I love that it’s a happy ending.” Another adds, “Yess, bittersweet ending, but a happy one for Shizuka and Marina. You will be missed Takopii 😭”
Let’s talk about the animation, because wow. Studio Enshiya knocked it out of the park—vibrant colors, fluid movements, and a style that feels both whimsical and raw. Even the haters (yes, there are a few) can’t deny it: “Good show. Amazing animation. 7/10, because of some things i did not like (like Takopis annoying voice).”
But the real star? The message. Takopii no Genzai isn’t just about aliens and murder—it’s about how small acts of kindness can break cycles of abuse. “‘People can be good and bad at the same time’ therein lies the true message of this story,” a fan explains. “It’s messy, it’s hard to watch, but at the end of the day it’s a story about broken people perpetuating the cycle of violence and abuse.”
So, is Takopii no Genzai anime of the year? Fans think so. “Anime of the year✋😭🤚 It’s one of the few stories that makes me want to collect the manga,” declares one enthusiast. Another gives it a 9.5/10, calling it a “masterpiece.” Even the critics are won over: “It’s one of the few stories that makes you feel something real,” a user admits.
As the final scene fades to black, Takopii’s voice echoes: “Talking can bring you happiness-pi…” It’s cheesy, it’s corny, and it’s exactly what we needed. Because in a world full of darkness, sometimes all you need is a weird alien with a heart of gold to remind you that happiness is worth fighting for.
Rest in peace, Takopii. You were annoying, you were naive, but you were ours. And we’ll never forget you.
Final verdict? 9/10. Watch it. Cry. Repeat.
“TAKOPI THE THING YOU ARE. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.” — A very emotional fan.
We couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
