But VoE does NOT have a tragic ending. They break apart for no reason and say "We can see each other whenever we want to" which means (and is later shown to be) imagining each other or something.

If they had a reason why they couldn't remain on the same planet, I'd be fine, but with Hitomi being able to control her powers completely new, she could literally teleport back and forth between Gaia and Earth at will. Or they could both remain at Gaia or both move to Earth.

There is absolutely NO reason at all for them to seperate and they aren't even unhappy about it. I mean seriously, if you finally found the love of your life, your soulmate would you just seperate from him/her without a good reason and keep smiling happily about it without even a hint of sadness?
