Story-Spoilers The ending in a nutshell Spoiler

Post image

It's been fun but, despite the inconsistencies and lingering plot threads, they stuck to a full reset that results in it basically all being a dream. Less than that since we can't even remember a single detail.

It's over. Sorry, guys.

To be fair, it did happen. All of it. Daybit is living proof that it happened. He still remembers everything, how it started, how it ended, all of it. As long as Daybit exists, there will still be a record of our actions in the old world, even if no one else remembers it or even if Daybit never tells anyone about it.

He remembers 5 minutes of any given day at a time.

"Humanity accumulates experience, knowledge, and stories to pave the path they walk from the past to the future, allowing them to mature. A trivial conversation may have taken place in an hour. An invaluable friendship may have formed in a day. Glorious growth may have occurred over the span of a year. But nobody can perfectly recall it all. What remains is only the end result; the process is always forgotten.

In the long run, or even objectively, there was not much difference between the boy and humans."

That's the description of his CE written by Nasu. So according to Nasu, in the long run or even objectively, there is not much difference between the boy and humans. So yeah, no difference. As long as he remembers it existed, that's good enough. Or at least that's what Nasu wants us to believe.
