There is enough evidence to suggest that the "mysterious character" at the end is just a main character in a new form.


** [[spoiler: The final chapter of the manga actually ends with a cliffhanger, which introduces a mysterious new girl. But since the series ends there nothing will possibly come of it.]]

* MoreHeroThanThou: Ryouto, Neko, Kotori and Chi are all casually willing to sacrifice their lives for just about anyone. For the Witches, this is a major dilemma as survival means taking one of [[YourDaysAreNumbered a limited number of death suppressant pills]]. Kotori doesn't want to take any more pills because that means shortening someone else's life, [[spoiler: because Chi already made that sacrifice for her]].

* CatchAFallingStar: Horribly subverted in the first episode. Ryouta trips and falls from a pipe on the side of a building, and Neko Kuroha extends her hand to catch him. He grabs it...and pulls her down after him. To make it worse, he survives anyway...but she doesn't.

** Played straight at the very end of chapter 154 and beginning of 155, when Kuroha meets [[spoiler:Kotori, who appears to be alive and well within the alien ruins that Makina brought her to. However, due to her recent memory loss, Kuroha doesn't remember her, aside from some notes scribbled about her prior to losing her most recent memories. They do at least have an awkward moment when Kuroha asks about Kotori's large breasts.]]

** Kana's role in the final battle is downplayed. [[spoiler:In the manga she shows up to slash Valyria's throat, though that doesn't stop the latter. In the anime she arrives to momentarily stop Valkyria's attack on Kuroha long enough for the latter to press the harnest and unlock her powers to deal with Valkyria. Additionally, she is seen in a wheelchair again, implying she's crippled again, while in the manga she can still move around and transfers to Kitsuka's school.]]

* GainaxEnding: Chapter 181. Fans can't be sure what the author was trying to accomplish here. [[spoiler: There's a time skip, Ryouta's witches still, the survivors at any rate, still live in the astronomy center, Kougo still visits on occasion, Ryouta's disembodied ghost popped in for a visit and floated away, and then Ryouta's at a beach holding hands with Koneko, until a snotty kid yells at them, and they turn shocked to look at her with the final frame having "THE END" slapped on it.]]

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The ending is really bad with this. For example [[spoiler:Kikka, who was brought to Vingulf along with Ryouta to become the new "Eve"]] is left alone in a room… and never heard of again. The last chapter only gives a resolution to a few main characters, leaving everyone else's fate in the dark.
