Adding a subpoint to one of above

** For this troper, even more than simply romantic subtext connected to the symbolism of fireflies, the An'ya Kouro ending is a sweeter take to the recurring dreams of "dark ocean" Kazuki has in the novel. Why the sudden jump? Because Kazuki reaches down for a part from a debris but pulls away-- this was exactly how the novel ended. In the novel, Kazuki would find himself swimming in pitch black water and see lights in the distance, giving him just enough hope to want to live and reach it. But once he's there, he searches for "his light" but finds no place for him to be, and he lets go of the rock he was clinging to and plunges back in. It's also notable that when Soushi shows Kazuki his "darkness", it's in the form of Kazuki's pitch black ocean becoming deeper. The ED seemingly implies that while they're still "in the dark", never really being or having the light (Kazuki lets the firefly fly away), they're at least together. Note also that Soushi is looking at Kazuki at first, not the "light" symbolized by the firefly.

** Additionally, the Drama CDs paint his preferential treatment of Maya in a different light. He's protecting her as ''a favour to Kazuki''. As in, Kazuki asked him to keep her out of the fighting so that's what he tries to do. And if he had romantic feelings for her, knowing he would die, it would have made more sense to push her towards Akira - who does like her - instead of Kazuki. So the "protect Kazuki for me" theory actually makes the most sense.

** It also really pushes the point home that at no point Kazuki had any romantic feelings for Toomi or Shouko, despite Shouko actually somewhat confessing to him in this continuity. It also manages to bring Soushi up at any given moment, even when Kazuki is contemplating others romantic feelings for each other.

** It also has Kazuki become extremely uncomfortable with people praising him but outright ''blushing'' when Soushi is the one to do it. And really, the entire novel showcases how much the break in their relationship hurts Kazuki, while making no secret out of how much Kazuki still means to Soushi.

** Same drama, different scene, Toomi asks Soushi if he would have changed Kazuki's data too is he'd had the chance but says he doesn't have to answer. Soushi gets ''extremely'' defensive and says "As if I could answer such a question!" to which Toomi says "So it really is like that" in a very resigned but also somewhat relieved tone. She might not be happy with the person Kazuki chose but she's glad that it's at least mutual.

* The Exodus relationship chart has stated Soushi's feelings for Maya possibly romantic, though left them ambiguous (despite being pretty straight forwards about ''everyone else's feelings''). If you look at his comments of "You don't understand" from a different angle, with the knowledge that he knew for quite a while he wouldn't survive the war, this gets darker. To me it always had this aftertaste of "I know I won't see the end of this war, and when I die I want to you take care of Kazuki".

* In one of the early episodes of Exodus 2 they are required to sit on the plane with Miwa and the others. Obviously they sit right next to each other, but they're sitting so close that a lot of viewers had to do a double take to make sure they weren't actually holding hands.
