Unfortunately, "Gleipnir" still doesn't have a final ending. The story is still unfolding, exploring the mystery of the aliens, Shuichi's dark past and Claire's desperate search for her sister.

Meaning of Gleipnir

Let's look at the translation of each word and explanation of the anime's name: 

グレイプニル
  • グレイプニル - grape (from Latin 'grāpes'): grape; - chain (from English): chain; - tangle (from English): tangled
The title "グレイプニル" (Gureipuniru) is a combination of words that can suggest elements of entrapment and complexity. The grape, perhaps symbolizing the fragility or sweetness of life, contrasts with the idea of chains and tangles, which evoke the struggle and conflict at the heart of the story. The protagonist, Shuuichi, objectively an ordinary student, finds himself involved in a supernatural world where his monster abilities connect him to dangerous situations and other equally complicated characters, such as Claire. In this way, the name reflects both the duality of Shuuichi's life and the plot full of mysteries and challenges they face alongside Claire's search for her sister.
