    I dunno what you guys are talking about, looks like a happy ending to me.

    http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm11705127

    Throwing in my crack theory in the mix: This story is a cycle in Kourin and the Kirisames. At the end you see him visited by Marisa and her daughter, which bores a resemblance to the Marisa we know today, and who obviously has a crush on our favorite handsome tall white-haired half-youkai.

    My idea is that this is a repeat of what happened many years before, and the real reason why Kourin left the Kirisame household was him and Marisa's mom were involved and Kourin decided to break ties before it becomes a full-blown affair.

    And the ending of this video hints that this cycle will begin anew with the next generation. Kourin being a long-lived half-youkai, he will stay the same while the ones who loved him come and go...

    Somewhat bittersweet, I know, but it does has precedent, with pools #822 and #1640.
