But he had a final mission to accomplish: to put things back in order. He only wanted her to know that he DID come back as he promised. When he hesitated to ring the doorbell and he left the car key instead, I knew. His objective was to return to the church where NPC Emma was and finish the task but the thought of HeeJoo waiting made him go to her house instead. That was the only thing I could think about.” That’s why he said as he got on the elevator, “All of a sudden, I remembered that HeeJoo might be waiting for me. To me, he only “detoured” to HeeJoo’s place. So when he left the hotel after killing the soldiers which Prof Cha sent him, I fully expected him to complete his mission then. … which was a weird thoughtfor him to entertain ifhe was expecting to come back right after he leveled up to 100. Unlike all the previous wives, here finally was HeeJoo who would cry and REALLY miss him.
He finally found a girl who would cry for him. So then, I decided to say that he looked at peace.
I thought he even looked happy but that was strange way to describe a face when he was parting with his beloved. THAT’s why his face looked like this:īack then, when I was writing that blog post, I couldn’t describe the expression properly. Jinwoo was saying goodbye to her without letting her on that it could very well be the last time he saw her (at least for a long time). I warned you, didn’t I? I said it reminded me of that scene in Casablanca. While I can’t say I am happy with the ending (I think I’m a closet romantic), it made sense because ever since the kiss and goodbye scene at the mall, I had this feeling creeping in my bones that maybe that was not a random kiss at all but a planned last farewell True to form, MotA delivered shockers till the very end, showing that anything the viewers will predict will actually not happen!

It’s possible that humanity was wiped out, resulting in the people becoming one with the Lifestream, which would explain Midgar being deserted. The ending is ambiguous, as it’s not clear whether humanity changed their destructive ways and learned to live in harmony with the Planet. Set 500 years after the events of the game, the post credits scene features Red XIII and his offspring running towards a dilapidated Midgar which has been overcome with vegetation, seemingly abandoned.Īfter the game’s title is shown, the screen fades to black and the sound of children laughing can be heard. Cloud is able to come to terms with her death, accepting the cyclical nature of life, one of the game’s main themes. She is part of the Lifestream, where Cloud will eventually end up too.
