13 Sentinels - Part 132 / Finale, Ending & Credits / Secret Ending

[@chrisossu2070]

Smart of the devs to come up with a scenario that could make every AU fanfic theoretically canon.

[@0GlassOfAcid0]

I'm so upset that this game isn't famous and a marketing success. It deserves as much attention as breath of the wild or among us. This is a sci fi anime in a nutshell game, along with being a mecha. The VA's who worked on this deserve a round of applause for their efforts. It's thanks to people like Christian Lamont and those who worked with him that made this English Dub possible. This dub was never going to happen, but it did and its a miracle. I'll never forget this game, to me its like experiencing FF7 for the first time.

Fortunately, the game managed to exceed sales expectations at 400,000 units sold as of March 2021 thanks to positive word of mouth, according to a report on Gematsu.

[@Tea-Spin]

yes it’s upsetting me that the amount of merch this title produces is so little, i really want my Yuki and Tomi figure :(

[@DipsyMum29]

Absolutely. Even years later I think back on this game. It was the first time in a long time that a story gave me a WTF moment.

[@michelle_rue]

The secret ending still give me chills after a year and half.

[@cargo4067]

Could you explain it to me, please? I did not get it.

[@terrygoodwin]

@@cargo4067 they sent out loads of pods to other areas of the universe and they all got sabotaged in the same way, so whole other groups of people are going through the same horrible stuff that our characters did.

[@nightadmin283]

@@terrygoodwin So they did send out prob like this to other place as well? But according to our 13 protagonists I'm sure after they got sabotaged by that defected code countless of times their 13 protagonists will made it just like our 13 protagonists. What I afraid is "Will their final destination can be their new Earth?"

[@terrygoodwin]

@@nightadmin283 yeah I guess so!

[@Hyperversum3]

@@nightadmin283 The system also performs terraforming, so technically any planet hit by their probes creates the entire system necessary for survival of the species. From that perspective, it's a pretty hard sci-fi story. All of these New Earths aren't separated only by space, but also by time. Many probes were sent out, and sooner or later many of them would hit a good planet. All of these will be new systems, performing the same story in infinite loop, until a series of generations of the 15 don't break the loop and manage to get out of the pods. Overall, it's interesting that the only true "villains" of the story are the old Ogata who essentially manipulated the situation creating conflict (Not even the old Gouta is truly a villain, he reasonably didn't trust Morimura being the one that fucked up the situation) and the old Ryoko, who as a selfish asshole was the real threat to the plan by inserting the destruction part of the loop.

[@staydilatedTV]

That ending with juro oh man

[@roleemack1535]

Juro and Chihiro ❤

[@staydilatedTV]

​@@roleemack1535my favorite pair out of all of them

[@roleemack1535]

@staydilatedTV I'm glad they rekindle would have love to explore the 2188 characters lives in Manga form at least

[@zaratastari2457]

​@@roleemack1535I think a movie form in anime or live action would be cool. This one has really good adaptation potential thats on 2188 and maybe from either loop 1 Juro's perspective or loop 2. Chihiro's

[@sanslh9979]

The wajima part is my favorite scene in the credits

[@shione717]

The music in this game is just so damn good, i really like the part after the emergency shutdown, the music is just in sync with their discussion, it gives me chills aaggghhhj i cant shut up about this game. I will forever rewatch this finale

[@zeronos2844]

Basically the secret ending is Insterstellar Movie's Plan B but in steroids.

[@BakedBanana]

oh

[@terrygoodwin]

tell me about it

[@Smegmadonis]

Wow that secret ending absolutely ruins everything. What a total waste of time

[@terrygoodwin]

@@Smegmadonis how so? It’s not really new information - we knew that the instance we followed in the game wasn’t the only one sent out into the universe… that ending just shows a different set of people.

[@Smegmadonis]

@@terrygoodwin really? Man was i mad for a good minute. I completely missed that part then. I thought the ppl we played as sent out the same infected code out to the universe again. Thank you for clearing that up

[@zaratastari2457]

​@@Smegmadonis It's implied that all the pods (thousands of them) are infected by the same code set by past Ryoko. You can see it as alternate scenarios that are mostly doomed or perchance have the same hope as we do on our gameplay. You can basically fanfic and have multiple canon endings because of this.

[@majidoujaa5592]

@@Smegmadonis basically in our pod facility after over 300 loops, a miracle happened when the sector 1 trio (Okino, Morimura, and Izumi) found their way to the terminal through a tunnel a kaiju dug, and when that Okino sacrificed himself to send Morimura and Izumi to the next loop, the butterfly effect to their survival started. the pods in other viable planets are not so lucky, Without Morimura or Izumi, no gates were setup, so every compatible is stuck in their sector living a normal life till the kaiju attack in a never-ending loop until a similar miracle occurs
