Cliffhanger Ending
I just watched the final episode of .Hack: Legend of Twilight on Animax. If you found that the very abrupt ending- with heroes Shugo and Rena vanishing in a flash of light to save The World- left you hanging, then you should probably be interested to know that after the credits, there was supposed to be an additional 2-minute scene that wraps up the story. Yep, Animax (and Cartoon Network in the US, I think) did TV viewers an inconvenience by not airing the ending in its entirety.
Well, lucky for us, I did some research and found what we're looking for online. You don't have to go and get the anime dvds or vcds to watch the real ending to Legend of Twilight. Just go on down here and download the ending for yourself. I personally found the whole Legend of Twilight series pretty much on the dumb side (certainly not to the standards of the much better original .Hack series), but I am a sucker for closure for stuff I watch. Enjoy!
In case you can't download the video or don't have the time to, here's a synopsis of the ending:
After the credits, we open up in a scene in The World. It's sometime after the end of the crisis with the Wandering A.I. Everyone is meeting for an event- all the main characters, including Kamui and her assistant. Balmung remarks that the two most important people haven't arrived yet. Sanjuro assures him that they will come- The World is a place where you can meet anyone, no matter what. Then, finally, Shugo and Rena arrive, alive and as perky as ever. They get ready for their next adventures. In the shadows, the Fourth Kid looks on, perhaps having found the answer she was seeking in The World. With their friends, Shugo and Rena set off to start a whole new legend... Told you it was dumb... Heh.
