>Was it because you also realized it would devastate you if you did so you tried to avoid that or was it simply because you either weren't too interested or had other things to do?
I'm not actually sure why I put it off, I tend to procrastinate things in general. And also be forgetful over time. I did realize that I would be sad after it's over, so there was some sort of effort put it off at one point. But I tried to make the last episode climax viewing special and I enjoyed it.

>you're also one of those folks that wax poetic over everything from the good old days and fervently wish they could go back in time to the era when they had peace of mind and didn't suffer
Haha, yeah something like that. I do find myself constantly thinking about "THE GOOD OL' DAYS," but I guess that's just something everyone who gets older has to deal with.
I do really mean it though when I said make sure to consume the other Rozen Maiden media. The PS2 visual novel is most certainly worth a read. The light novels too and drama CDs. It's never too late to learn Japanese and even if you don't want to, you can use a text hooker to translate the game in real time. Unless you've already consumed all the available things out there. I like to put things off and stretch out media consumption of my favorite series to enjoy it as long as possible.

Now Galaxy Angel, that's probably the series I feel the most connected to, and I think I would feel as devastated as you are if I finally watched and read everything. I purposely have put off watching episodes for decades now just so I always have more Galaxy Angel yet to watch. I couldn't deal with the pain of finally watching, playing, and reading everything related to the series and having nothing more to enjoy. As long as there is more Galaxy Angel for me to watch, I feel I can keep going. And even then, it's a big series so I have a lot of spin off games to play and drama cds to still listen to. Or rewatch what I forgot.
