I just beat Metal Gear Solid 2. It reminds me how more recent Japanese stuff totally fucks up the endings. They should have called it Evangelion: Shinji's Revenge. Anyways. All newer Japanese endings are the same and go like this.
1. Enter trip sequence with ambient repetitive music and flashing colors.
2. Somebody begins to monologue about how the earth is actually a giant gumball machine.
3. Random clips of people walking in big cities.
4. Somebody continues to monologue about the meaning of life is actually to dress like a member of the opposite sex.
5. You wake up somewhere not exactly sure the 40 hours you wasted on this game/anime/movie actually happened or not. But you are sure you want to plant your controller/remote/fist somewhere in the middle of your TV.
...you mean the meaning of life ISN'T to dress like a member of the opposite sex?
THANKS A LOT! YOU JUST RUINED ALL MY PRECIOUS ILLUSIONS ABOUT LIFE!!!
*wails uncontrollably*
Someone lost the reason to live. The world sheds a tear.
