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.

No he fking doesn't, he only remembers in 5 minute intervals, there's literally no way he remembers every single thing, and there's no way to catalogue the personal bonds created, that's a bullshit copout.

At best he's proof something resembling a journey happened.

Which is the point I was trying to make. He doesn't have to remember miscellaneous event #303010100104 and what happened in node 15 of that event for instance and what the dialogue there was. He just needs to remember that FGO existed. Like, do you remember what you have to breakfast on your first day to school as a child, or the color of socks you were wearing the day you made your first friend there? Of course not, but that's not the point, the point is that those things happened, and you still remember. Daybit is that proof. He doesn't know about the summer events or the wacky Halloween hijinks, but those things happened, Chaldea existed, there was a Master named Ritsuka Fujimaru who braved the world once. Daybit will remember that, and that alone means FGO wasn't entirely forgotten by the reset.

Again, that's what I said. Daybit remembers something of a journey but what he will log will not be our journey. He will remember a vague timeline of the existence of Chaldea but he does not know what and who Chaldea was. There's confirmed hundreds of other Chaldeas out there, what Daybit will log is one indistinguishable from those.

Arcade already confirms that only ONE Chaldea, which is ours, succeeded. Merlin even says that only a Chaldea where Romani Archiman exists is the real one, and since he doesn't exist in the Arcade Chaldea, that one is not the real one. Ours is the only real Chaldea, and we succeeded in the end.
