The road might be filled with corners. You can't see what is around the bend. But I believe there will be dreams and hopes. Walking slowly on this narrow road rather than running on a broad open horizon, I'll have more of beauty and warmth. I will not forget the mountains on the other side of the horizon, but the world that I've created with my imagination--no one can take it from me. I do not regret this. That's why I can write about this now, just as if I were writing a book about my life. God's in his heaven, all's right with the world.

Hint #1: spoiler[This red-haired twin-tailed tsundere had recently more than patched up her relationship with the boy she spurned for most of this TV series.]

Hint #2: spoiler[Although the speaker quickly befriends everyone from her nosy neighbor, to her slightly chubby bosom buddy, to her minister's wife, to her bosom buddy's irritable spinster aunt, she deliberately spent most of the story shunning the boy she seems to eventually end up with.]

Hint #3: spoiler[The prequel to the Canadian girls' novel upon which this series was based was adapted into anime 30 years after this series.]

Hint #4: spoiler[The speaker resents having her hair compared to carrots, a fact that got a somewhat older boy in her class bashed over the head with a writing slate in an iconic scene.]

I guess that would be spoiler[Anne from Anne of Green Gables aka Akage no Anne (World Masterpiece Theater).]

As lenient as I am on context, none whatsoever is a bit much.

Oops, sorry, still in character guessing mode. Embarassed

No idea, I've never seen it (or any other adaptation, for that matter) or even read the books. But maybe someone who has can scoop it up before it expires now. Smile

It has expired, so here's an easy one.

I was hoping to come up with a question while I was objecting, Your Honor. But I did not.

next quote, dub

Character A: Space century, 0014, Mankind has unlocked the heavy secrets of space travel. But in the vastness of space, humans are but one of a myriad of species. There are countless others, like that one. And those, and all of them. Far too many to name. No seriously, I'm done.

Character B: Wow, he really phoned that one in, didn't he?

I believe the speaker and show were correct, but Raftina didn't give the point because Gina didn't provide the context of the scene
