I watched "the Help" last night and it made me cry at the end.

>ごめんね
Am I the only one who seriously gets pissed off at characters who use this non-casually?

Am I seriously the only one who gets pissed off at people who failed Japanese 101 but still feel the need to correct native Japanese writers?

I'm not saying it's incorrect. I'm talking about how it sounds really insincere, and certain characters use it when they should be sincere. This disparity in sincerity gives it more of a negative effect.

You should know the cliche, your girlfriend sleeps with another guy, and when you confront her about it, all she says is ごめんね before running off. That way of "apologizing" really stings.

It's an emotionally-powerful way of apologizing, by bringing forward the girly and pathetic qualities of the speaker.
It's used by manipulative whores precisely for that reason, but it only appears insincere because you've read too many NTR doujins apparently.

It was pretty much the best line she could deliver in this context and fits her attitude and their relationship perfectly.
And it's moe, faggot.

>That way of "apologizing" really stings.
Yes, but not because it's insincere.

Last Sunday I visited Tretyakovskaya gallery. For some reason, Vereshchagin's war-themed paintings invoked ultimate sadness and grief deep inside my heart, and my eyes became really wet.

I drempt I cried last night, but it's been years since I really did cry..

Last night.

When that scene played, it's true that it made me quite sad... But then, when Battler finally woke up, and she was just a pile of ashes, and that Promise song was playing... That was when I choked up.

If it was anyone but Beatrice, I think I would have been fine. But I didn't want her to die either... So when Battler finally realized the truth, I was surprised at how he not only kept going (if I was in his shoes, I'd have followed her to the grave), but then made EP6, which was a masterpiece.

I don't know, but I find it particularly effective if it's used in a situation in which someone has no control over, or if they disappointed you indirectly in some way.
Otherwise, if they were truly sorry, they wouldn't have done something to screw with you in the first place.

I liked that scene too. All of EP6 and 7 were interesting, especially the EP7 Tea Party, which was a blast for me.
