The ending was at the beginning, i think. At the beginning, she became oiran and her story continued after that. She became top oiran’s kamuro and she slowly met her fate as a prostitue. Bur sincerly she wanted freedom. Even though she knew that her situation was not suitable for love, love was her only heaven. She run away because she wanted to see her lover and she realized that his kindness comes to her only if she is in her “fancy” self. She immedietly underestood her love was an illusion. So she accepted herself as a prostitude. So the end was beginning. Though she accepted her life, she still seeks freedom and that man suggested her to become oiran. She hesitated but since a man who were like bro to her asked, she approved. If she become oiran, she can marry someone with high rank like oiran she was serviced when she was younger. So it is her only chance i think. She stopped fall in love, so she will not make a mistake like oiran who shows up in 1st episode. As i underestan, oiran from 1st episode falled for a man who can’t buy her. She wanted to end her life with him and that man killed her as she wanted. But who knows if that man didn’t kill himself...
