And did someone have a thought about a word in each ending song? I mean, in the first episode there are 花も (hana mo), 散りぬ (chirinu) in second episode, 人も (hito mo) in third episode, べき (beki) in fourth episode and 花なれ (hana nare) in fifth episode. It's probably Hosokawa Gracia's death poem. "散りぬべき 時知りてこそ 世の中の 花も花なれ 人も人なれ" (chirinubeki tokishiritekoso yononakano hanamo hananare, hitomo hitonare). Internet says the generally accepted meaning behind the poem is that both flowers and humans are beautiful because they know when they will fall.

Anyone else catch Honebami in the ending? Thank you for your answer! I have a feeling it would be strange if these words linked each other as a normal sentence, so I didn't suprised it derived from haiku. But since the not all the word in this haiku appear in ED, I will wait until Doga Kobo said something about this.
