Well, it's the good end we've all been waiting for. Hikari is angry that Kei left, but she decides to go to London to bring him back. The rest of S.A. decide to come with her. Unfortunately, Hikari can't even figure out how to get to London. Enter Sui, who just wants his dear Onii-sama to return. He supplies a helicopter that will ferry the S.A. directly there. Once there, Akira and Tadashi get a little distracted by the sights and the food. But they eventually find the Takishima residence, which looks something like Buckingham Palace. There's going to be a party at the place, so they decide to sneak in during the party. They're approached by guard dogs, but Ryuu says he'll take care of them. The gang moves on, and Tadashi drops out to deal with some attack lasers. Yahiro appears to help him. Once inside the mansion, the remaining group are surrounded by combat maids, but Sakura appears and activates HAREM MASTER Jun, who easily distracts the maids to that the remaining three members can continue. They're met by a group of black suits, so Megu stays behind to deal with them. However, she realizes that she can't sing without Yahiro with her. He shows up in time and her song quickly immobilizes the guards. Tadashi returns with a motorcycle and picks up Akira and Hikari. Hikari is unceremoniously dropped off in what appears to be Kei's office. When she hears someone coming, she disguises herself as a big pink rabbit. But it turns out to be Kei, so she gives him his birthday present - a set of dolls of everyone in S. A. She then challenges him to a race to Big Ben and he agrees. The two take off in sparkly lovey happiness and Aoi decides to just let them go. Once they're near the top of Big Ben, Hikari wants to confess. But the wind blows away the flowers she brought. She leaps after them and Kei leaps after her. They then share an embrace and a kiss while floating magically in front of the clock tower. No. Really.
ROMANTIC TIMES
Well, not exactly the most shocking plot twist ending ever. Not like anyone wanted it. Special A has, for the most part, been somewhat of a headache for me. I enjoyed the manga, but the pacing in the anime felt awkward and Hikari's cluelessness really annoyed me a lot more than it did in the manga. But it has a happy ending with good friends coming together and doing good friend things. For all its little bumps, Special A still managed to provide a nice, warm fuzzy ending that was actually decently satisfying. This isn't a show I'd stick on my top ten, but it was worth the ride while it lasted.
