I lost a friend today, he always loved this ost. Life always made him suffer. He never gave up. He lost his brother and his mother. I helped him get through the trauma. He always inspired me to push further in life. To never give up. Lost him to covid. Rest in peace you beautiful person. I didn’t deserve you, no one did. You deserved a better life than this. You prevented me from killing myself You inspired me to work hard and get into a great highschool. I will carry your memories until my last breath

This makes a lot more sense for the final movie. Yuki entering the Velvet Room for the final time, receiving the hopes of SEES and all the bonds to make the Universe, and the elevator entering the top floor. Then, after that, it shows him working his way to Nyx before the best Burn my Dread remix plays.

That depends. Do you feel accomplished, having allowed the world to go on living? Are you satisfied with saving humanity? With dispelling its greatest foe? If not, my friend, then I fear you learned nothing through your journey. There was no other way. But for the life of billions, perhaps that price was worth having paid.

In the game, I always associated this track with the Sun social link (arguably one of the best). Every link has its own conflict that you had to overcome, but not with this one. This was about accepting that, sometimes, there is no solution, and that we must live life to our fullest. It's also one of the only links whose message is very close to that of the main story proper (what with people giving in to despair and all that). So yeah, tearjerker all around.

[@Ceph_04]

RIP

[@Makoto_Akechi]

I can't disagree. You're right. Though Akinari didn't have a solution to overcome his problems, but he learned to accept his life in his own terms and lived happily.

[@ThiccFurryBoi34]

Though technically this is yukari ost about the truth of her father

even more so with a particular scene in the second movie, which i felt to have been portrayed better than in the game.

[@shorty7523]

aultinbarltino ikr. I Can't believe it could have ever beaten the game in some scenes!

[@richw500]

I know that the comment is two years old, but I'd like to point out that the way the game has us see Shinji's last moments though his perspective with everything becoming blurry and slowed down is really sad too, and I don't think the movie was able to beat that aspect of the movie/game execution of Shinji's death.

[@ApexGale]

It's a little sad there won't be a 5th movie for the Answer...but I'm still excited for the recomposed Battle for Everyone's Souls.

[@pezdispencer113]

TBH I'm surprised the 4th movie didn't reveal Makoto's fate since there was no answer movie.

[@rezahydra]

On one hand, I’m sad for that as well. On the other, given just how much The Answer portrayed characters in incorrect light and the fact it gave a reason to undermine the ending, I’m also glad we didn’t.

[@pezdispencer113]

@@rezahydra what do you mean? The answer full embodies the theme of the game, coming to terms with and accessing death. The biggest problem with the answer was that it was an unfun grindfest. The story is fine.

[@rezahydra]

@Pez Dispencer The Answer also portrayed almost every character in it contradictory to how they were shown in game, and it gives hope at a way to save Minato which undermines the whole point of the game.

[@pezdispencer113]

@@rezahydra it doesn't give hope in how to save him. Going back is always phrased as a suicide mission specifically because they have no other way to defeat nyx. Their actions in the answer are a fairly natural extension of their characters. The two most affected are the two in love with Makoto, Yukari and Aigis. Yukari was already a screwed up person from her fathers death and her mother's reaction to it, her irrational need to save Makoto is extremely human and it cultivates in her complete emotional breakdown at the end once she realises she's failed and can do nothing. Shinji's death is nowhere near as impactful for the rest of the team as Makoto's is because outside of Akihiko (who has his awakening from this) and Mitsuru, nobody really even knew him. Whereas Makoto was their leader and close friend. These are characters that are grieving, they are naturally going to react emotionally and not rationally. The "everyone has a key and you need all to use the magic portal" thing is pretty contrived, but the idea behind their fighting isn't bad. It just needed a more natural way for it to come about and be less rushed. The biggest problem with the Answer is the large amount of filler grinding at the start which then quickly devolves into a rushed finish. If they worked on the pacing it could have been great.
