25. How would you end XXX/Would you change the ending of XXX?
I’ve had this ending in my head since like episode fucking three. All I want is for Yusaku to go home and hug someone and hug them real tight and say “I’m home” and then camera pans up, fades to white and then pans down; the white becomes the clouds of the cyberse world and we get a static shot of all the Ignis, happy and healthy and safe and having fun that.
that’s all I want. like, if I could even go even more into the world of the ideal, I want the person Yusaku hugs and says “I’m home” to be his mother because I don’t care how much of an ass pull it would be at this point but I want him to reunite with his family because I’m certain, his mum and dad are still out there somewhere, looking for their little boy who disappeared.
and because I’m incapable of going even a minute without mentioning Him, I think it would be a fantastic parallel to Spectre for Yusaku to get this ending as Spectre, the child of the Incident which made time begin for him, cannot have this ending. Therefore, it sets up a deliciously angsty foil where Yusaku gets to resolve his family/mummy issues against Spectre. I hope this spiel makes sense because it is crystal clear in my head
also Windy’s Origin is perma-dead for this reason as well; at least one of the Lost Incident members is forever lost. I just don’t want it to be Yusaku.
