I took it to mean if worse comes to worst, he could die without regret.

That's how I took it, too. Reminded me of that scene from Morning Glories #4 where Hunter says that when he was about to drown, all he thought was "at least I got to see how Lost ends".

Yeah...not something you should put in a job application. Laughing But do understand the point he's getting across. To the job people there, they probably think he's a crazy otaku fan or something and that he's "not taking the job seriously."

I'm sure he'd get the job if he said Evangelion.

It's not in the news section, it's an interest story.
Go to animenewsnetwork.com/news if you want them filtered out.

I wonder if his concerns would've been greater if the ending actually was spoiler[totally, utterly depressing]....

That is true dedication. "It doesn't matter if I die from the radiation. I have seen all of Madoka". I salute you, sir, for you are a true fan.

I thought he meant it in the sense of "When I get to the end of that tunnel, a pretty little pink-haired girl is waiting for me."...... Laughing


I would have seen it more as some sort of fan achievement if the show was longer. You can practically watch all of Madoka in 1-2 days.
