Synopsis.

Kiryu confides that his time is running out. His friends suggest that he create an "Ending Note" in order to spend some quality time and revive his zest for life.

Contents of "Ending Note

The "Ending Notebook" is a collection of contents in which Kiryu addresses the various things he actually wanted to do and the things he has left undone. There are three elements: "Ending Drama," a series of stories that provide a glimpse into the present of people with whom Kiryu has close ties; "Reminiscence Diary," which takes visitors on a tour of memorable places to reflect on their lives to date; and "Unfulfilled Missions," in which unfinished tasks are presented in the form of missions. As the player progresses through the "Ending Notebook," the "Awakening Level," a parameter unique to Kiryu that consists of mind, technique, and body, increases. As the level of awakening increases, each battle style of Kiryu's exclusive job, "Dragon of Dojima," is enhanced, which is a great advantage. Fulfilling one's remaining wishes will also lead to perfecting Kiryu's condition.

Ending Drama

A series of stories in which Kiryu reexamines his own life through glimpses into the present of old acquaintances. The story begins with a chance reunion with detective Date, who is also a close ally of Kiryu. With the help of Date's arrangement, he also learns about the current lives of his loved ones.

Kiryu has led a tumultuous and eventful life. The number of people he has met along the way is also endless. Just as Kiryu has influenced the lives of many people, he is here with the help of many others. The people who were deeply involved in Kiryu's life are here today. What does Kiryu think of them?

Also, as the story progresses, you may be able to call on people who have appeared in the story with "delivery help" during battles, which is useful for strengthening your fighting skills.

Diary of Reminiscence

This is an element of town exploration that allows players to recall their past lives by visiting places associated with Kiryu in Kamurocho and Isesaki Ijinmachi. Not only will you catch a glimpse of Kiryu's feelings toward the places he remembers and the friends he has met, but you will also increase your awakening level, so be proactive in your search for memorable places.

Unfulfilled Missions

This is a list of things Kiryu thinks he left undone in his daily life. There are various missions such as "eating at a restaurant," "singing at karaoke," "defeating an enemy," etc. When accomplished, Kiryu's awakening level will be increased. Since this is an important factor in strengthening Kiryu and advancing the ending drama, be aware of it and take action.
