He’s such a great character and stolen the episodes he’s been in, seeing him sort the problems out will be such great fun. Now if anything makes me interested in the Hope Arc it is seeing Togami in action over anyone else. It all ends with Togami and Hiro saving Makoto. In death Chisa is the champion of hope to Junko’s Despair. This whole thing was basically Junko’s plan which we learn after the actual episode ends and we have to see Junko and Chisa explain everything to us simply and still not making any sense. At least we now know Munakata’s big problem was a Despair whispering in his ear. I can’t make my mind up what Mitarai believes, he seems to think forcing the world to believe in Hope will make them better. It makes you wonder what anyone actually thinks Hope is.
I guess it shouldn’t surprise anyone that Mitarai being in two series but pretty much useless in both so far would be the most important character at the end.
I can’t figure out whether Tengan WANTED Mitarai to show the video or not or what the point of any of that was other then to tie two ends together. Tengan has sent a video message to Mitarai which admits he was the guy that was behind all this, they, well not Mitarai as he’d already left, deduced that he didn’t think that Mitarai would be part of all this so after finding out about it he would force his hand.
No character seems to be using logic in what they do they just do things for no reason at all. The whole episode was a giant mess really. It was a disappointing finish I guess but not really a finish either. I felt like neither story was truly finished, there is a big gap between the end of the Despair Arc and the second game which was actually the thing I was most looking forward too now this one ends on a complete cliffhanger meaning any hope that the gap will be filled a little has disappeared as the Hope Arc needs to really focus on ending the Future Arc. That is putting a lot on that episode before its aired really. In fact much like the Despair Arc it kind of just gets left to end in the one off special Hope inspired episode. Will Despair win or will Hope win the war? The final episode of the Future Arc is here.
