bro look on the website: all the dead characters are gray. *ash isnt gray* also theres no arrow leading to ash from the guy who stabbed him, only an arrow leading to the guy who stabbed him (meaning he killed him) prove me wrong.
@@sam5822 In the manga Ash is 100% dead. The original author has zero involvement in the making of the anime, the director of the anime chose to keep a slightly open ending but I'm afraid he's 100% dead. Although he could've lived through the incident because he's gone through worse, he decided to die peacefully because the stab reminded him that he and Eiji live in completely different worlds and for Eiji to be 100% safe Ash was better of dying leaving Eiji alone, also he basically had to lay low for the rest of his life since he was wanted and presumed dead so he was practically done with life.
@@Blaqgoku12220 Actually, in an article I read (about season two) It is said that Season Two has a chance of coming out in 2021, and that the author of the manga would give ideas if this were to happen.
in the op it shows him in the outfit he was stabbed in putting pressure on his wound and limping away. i think he might be alive but its probably up for interpretation :/
@@hassansolaih7106 u should email MAPPA in regards for a season 2 and spam the official banana fish instagram accounts comment section for a s2, its what i did and im sure theyll notice it
Never buddy..... I haven't even watched from ep 20 onwards to spare myself the pain in the end.... I watched all four episodes of this fan made adaptation of garden of light manga and I was crying, sobbing in each episode... I guess after I watched GoL fan made eps back to back, by the time they reached ep 4 I accepted ash's death along with Eiji... A true masterpiece
OMG I can't believe someone really made this. Main plot of BF is so touching in itself but these side - stories make everything more profound. I still can't describe the way I feel when Ash's photograph, 'The Dawn', is revealed in the final pages of GoL...it's so sad but there's also that warmth in it, as if Ash is the source of it and the rays are reaching out to you from the picture...can't describe it :'-) Thank you so much for this ! Great fans of a great series ❣
I really admire this! You did a good job on episode 1, really good style. I finished the series almost a year ago... and this is good for the Garden of Light! Keep up the amazing work!
i cant explain how i feel about banana fish. I love how it made me so emotional, its a pure masterpiece but i hate it so much for making me cry when anything reminds me of it. I hate how much i tried to get over it but i coudnt, i hate im crying rn and i hate the end. But i love the small moments they had, i love how Ashu always protected him, i love it. Before starting Banana fish, someone said that they loved eachother like lovers do, i obviously didnt get it back then but now i do. And i wish i couldnt. Ill just accept the fact that ill never be the same person i was before Banana fish, ill accept that im never gonna get over it and ill accept how weak this anime made me. Sometimes i wish i could go back in time and tell myself that i shoudnt watch it.
I Just found this because of tik tok. I love banan fish so much, Banana fish will always have a secial place in my heart and to be honest I can't heal from this anime. I am very sad since i never saw garden of light and finding this made me so nostalgic, sad. Thanks for making this
@@ysl570 Although I can't direct you towards any app or official site for the Garden of Light manga, I recommend watching teeaboo's CZcams reaction video to the final episode. After watching the anime, he pulls up the Garden of Light manga (Edit: does a full reaction) and says barely anything at all. You can pause to read it and the screen it's on is pretty large so it's easy to see. He also reacts to the Banana Fish Private Opinion manga at the beginning of the video, which shows how Ash and Blanca met. I didn't see anything romantic between Sing, Eiji, or Akira. But maybe it's shown in a different manga? It's still hard to believe though, since Akira is much younger than Sing, and Eiji seems unlikely to move on with another romantic interest. I thought Sing and Eiji were only close friends.
This is so beautiful, oh my goodness!! The way you've taken the time to draw every scene so true to the manga, with your own embellishments and additions here and there (which are all fantastic and fitting!) is so impressive. The music and sound effects are great touches too. You're really bringing the story to life! I really appreciate all the work you've put into this, I love it! I can't wait to watch what you create next ❤️
I just finished watching it and couldn't sleep after gulping down the truth that our lynx is not there. He is alive. He is immortal. Some soul never dies and Ash is the one
This is really amazing! Kudos for the great job. It actually made me cry. With the choice of music, animation, its pretty impressive. I sure do look forward for more episodes!
This was really well done! The expressions, the audio, the colors - it all brings it to life and the effort is amazing! I wish I could have found it way earlier. But it also helps to make me realize that my heart wouldn't be able to handle a season 2.
Thank u so much! :-D I was looking forward of reading this but cant find the manga. Pls upload ep2 & the rest of the eps...pretty pls. We really miss Ash so much & I wanted to know the aftermath... tears. God bless ur heart for this. ♡♥♡
I just read a theory video that Ash is alive based on the opening intro where Ash is walking outside the snow after being stabbed...he must have survived... but i come to think on this Epilogue that would contradict the ending. Oh, i wish there would be a Season 2 to give way on Second Chances..even just an exception on whatever crimes he did. That was just caused by his abusive past & he deserves to live. Thanks again! Cheers to Banana Fishdom! :-D ☆★☆

thank you for this i love this so much and the part in GoL where eiji said in the interview that one "friend" of his said that there's both virtues and faults in the city and that he could take photos that exert warmth because he loves both the pain and light of the city, he was literally talking about ash i can't brb crying
Such an amazing work!!!!!💕💖💕💖💖💕💖💖💕💕💕💕 I love it so much and I'm only on episode one! Your art is amazing too 💕 Also, this got me crying, Banana fish is so sad (and you did such a great job communicating emotions with your art), I'm hoping Eiji will be happy 🥺
I loved this, can we apply like a fandub, like, we make a casting or something like that and we send you the audios of our voice saying something, it would help a lot, I hope you read this tysm
its been 2 years since i have finished banana fish. the physiological damage this anime has caused me is unimaginable. everything hurts so bad, they never go to say goodbye.
I will always have Bananafish etched in my heart. I will never get over it. Ever since the ending came out in 2018 I've been so hung up. Even now I still feel the same emotions I've felt. Never fading. I feel like I can never move on.
Guess I'll cry!!!! I'll be honest, I love this soo much, and this was really well made. My heart is still sad for Ash, but this gives me a little bit of hope seeing this animated, instead of constantly rereading the manga. Thank you so much for this!!💗
I guess you'd like to know that this piece of art that you've created has jerked some tears and pulled my heartstrings. good job! you did it. you made me cry. kudos to your talent!

Some anime's we'll never get over no matter how many years we let pass. BANANA FISH is by far the most painful master piece I've ever watched
not really
@@Diaryofaninja we all have different opinions and thats ok. 👍🏼
@@cyb3r_d3m0nz5 nope banana fish is not a "painful master piece" its good but nowhere near a master piece nor is it painful
@@Diaryofaninja some people react differently, so it could be painful and a masterpiece to whoever. Everyone is different
@@cyb3r_d3m0nz5 except that its not a masterpiece LOL
i can’t explain the pain banana fish caused me, it’s only been a week since i finished it and i haven’t stopped crying. everything just hurts
this is amazing btw
That shit hurt huh
i feel u, i finished it yesterday but i’m feeling so numb but heavy at the same time. I have a connection w the characters that i cannot explain...
Linh Anh Tonon exactly, it’s been almost a month now and it hasn’t gotten any better and i don’t think it ever will
it's been five months, it hurts like the first day
I legit paused at 0:02 and started crying, like damn, how am I supposed to get through this video
Just when I thought I have finally moved on. I'm never getting over this anime, am I?
Thank you for this vid
