References
- Several characters that appeared in the ending are characters that made their debut in the novel, A Letter from Norman, and the Christmas Omake in Volume 2. Few of the characters are Michelle and Olivia.
- Michelle was the girl who was seen holding hands with a young Emma walking along the cafeteria, she was later seen running across the field playing a ball with several other children.
- Olivia was the girl who was reading a storybook to a group of younger orphans, she was also later seen playing the ball in the field.
- The tin can telephone that appeared at the end of the list of pictures flashed is a reference to the Christmas Omake chapter, where a young Emma talked to Norman via the same device.
- The young boy whose face was covered by his fringe and was seen with a butterfly is Isabella's childhood sweetheart, Leslie. The scene of Leslie later transited to a young version of Isabella, who was seen running.
- The scenes with Leslie and young Isabella is from Chapter 37 of the Manga.
- The final scene with a faceless Emma is similar to Norman on the cover of Chapter 27, the two have the same pose and are both surrounded by flying white doves.
- The boot, book and chess piece shown at the very end of the ending theme are representing Emma, Ray and Norman respectively.
- The boot represents Emma, since the latter is an athletic individual.
- The book represents Ray, since Ray is often seen reading a book, it also represents his vast intelligence.
- The chess piece, The Queen, represents Norman, most likely symbolizes his strategic skills he often uses in tag.

Akane no sora ga kyou wa Konna ni kowai shiranakereba Shiawase de irareta atatakai Tomoshibi hitotsu mata ochiru
Kou yatte shiranu ma ni Ushinatteita ano yasashii koe Shinjite shimatta no boku ni wa Dore dake datta

Kono ori wo nukero ashita wo Tsukamu tame ni zetsubou wo
