Kaito resolves to destroy humanity and rule over a new world.
Zack falls to his might, and Yoko Minato perishes as well.
Kouta eats the fruit of Helheim and completes his evolution.
The two are fated to do battle...
But who will stand as victor at the very end?
KAZURABA!!
KAITO!!
This is a world of potential possibilities.
Which one will survive to the end?
Like me, all you can do is watch from here.
Kaito! Didn't you gain anything besides your sorrow and despair?
Is that anger all you have?
It is!
I hate this world that has only pain for the weak,
and forces all to be strong!
And the power to destroy it all is in my grasp!
Once I defeat you!
FRUIT BASKET
LOCK OPEN
ZENITH ARMS
M-M-M-M-MIGHTY WARLORD
I won't let you... I can't let you defeat me!
I have to stand in your way, Kaito!
Got it, move... wow...
Don't say no, just live more!
It's survival, you gotta move
When life's in a warring state
Who's got the strength to win
Now that all the locks are open?
Don't say no, just live more!
Where will you find...
Don't say no, just live more!
And how will you use...
The forbidden fruit?
The wind of the moment has its own message to share
It's blowin' stronger and stronger till it reaches you
Your dreams and future may seem so far away...
When you've got all you can out of life, that's when you can stop
But don't let life get you down
Keep your head held high
Wherever you may go
Never compromise yourself
Follow the path you believe in, and just live more!
Don't say no, just live more!

I share in Kouta's hope...
...but I can't bring myself to turn on Kaito.
I... I feel Kaito's pain.
His hate for the strong, and the despair felt by the weak...
But the future is...
MELON DEFENDER
GRAPE DRAGUN
MANGO PUNISHER
STRAWBERRY KUNAI
Is that all you've got, Kazuraba?
SONIC ARROW
Come at me!
PEERLESS SABER
MATCHLOCK ORANGE DJ GUN
Fine, then...
What's wrong? You can't hold back now.
This ends here...
Kazuraba.
Maybe, but...
But I...
How, Kazuraba?
What made you this strong?
Because I wish to protect something.
Because I swear not to give up.
That's all I have.
Why are you crying?
I'll cry gladly.
Even if this makes me weak...
I won't stop myself. I'll go on even as I'm crying!
You...
are truly strong.
Kaito... Kouta...
The future has been decided.
Return to the world that is.
It's time for you to carry out your role.
Mai...
Kouta...
I...
I couldn't stop Kaito.
His goal was right.
He just went at it the wrong way.
So let's make it happen. Let's grant his wish.
But the right way this time.
Yeah.
Will you let my future happen?
I promised, didn't I?
It was all for this...
Here you are at last, Man of the Beginning.
Is this the ending you wanted?
It is.
This is the inescapable fate that awaits all life.
The selection that drives evolution... death and rebirth.
It is my role to encourage that process.
I have carried it out once more.
Even now that it's over, I'm not sure if you're on our side or against us.
Neither.
If you have to call me something, call me the medium in which fate operates.
Just the hand on the ticking clock.
After you turned our world into this?
This was inevitable.
All races, all cultures enjoy their prosperity, then fade away
to make room for the next generation.
Tell me, as the new generation of humanity...
How will you bring your world to its end?
The power to paint over the world in our image...
That would mean destroying everything I've fought to protect.
Don't be ridiculous.
I refuse.
Don't be naive! Without destruction, there can be no new birth.
If you won't sacrifice the world of the past, you two have no future.
If we have no future here, we'll find another world.
There's a way, as long as we don't give up.
There are empty places at the edge of the universe no living being knows.
That is where the future I want lies.
Instead of destroying this world and ruling over the ruins,
we'll create a new world from scratch.
That's our new stage.
Do you realize how difficult the choice you're making is?
You'd find a world without life, without even light.
Can you bear living there?
I have the power to paint the world in my image.
With this power, I have no reason to fear the dark.
I'll be fine.
After all, I'm not doing this alone.
I'm not afraid as long as we're together.
No matter how hard it gets, we'll make it through.
You would simply abandon this shining blue world, this living paradise?
The future is always in darkness.
That's what makes it worth lighting it up ourselves.
I can't say I expected this...
But it is your decision.
Because all you do is observe, right?
This may not be my place as a snake to say, but...
Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth.
Or else, there really is nothing for you.
Thanks for everything.
Let's go.
Okay.
A man and a woman, driven out of paradise to the barren earth.
A new Genesis is being written.
Now, let's see what species is next to face the trial of evolution.
3 Months Later
Here you go.
Excuse me?
How can I help?
Another one of those? You glutton!
Iyo, put that down and give me a hand!
Honestly...
The damage caused across the country has been immense,
and the road to recovery will be long.
Have you seen this man?
Zawame's really starting to be a bustling city again.
It just goes to show how many people thought of this place as home.
Even with Yggdrasill gone, they still want to come back.
Not everyone has, though...
No point worrying about what you can't change.
Better to focus your energy on what you can do for now.
There's still a lot of work to be done!
Well, I guess I can count myself lucky...
At least I have a job to occupy myself with...
But him...
Hrm?
Mitsuzane Kureshima.
What do you think's going to happen to him?
Nothing, I suspect. He's still just a child.
He was deceived by the Overlords and manipulated.
He's as much of a casualty as any of us.
That's all the punishment he needs.
Is it, though? It's not like that makes it right...
It doesn't.
But that also means he'll live with the burden of what he's done.
In a sense, he's the one who'll suffer the most in the long run.
The problem is, he has no one left to understand him, or what he's done...
and tell him how he can help put things right.
Hey!
Kinda weird, when you think about it.
Seeing everyone smiling and dancing, you'd never think the world was on the brink of destruction.
There's barely anyone in the world who knows what really happened,
or who it was that saved the world. Just us, I guess!
Say, Micchy...
We'd be glad to have anyone we can talk with about Kouta and Mai and Kaito, keep their memories alive...
No one but us can, so...
So please, won't you come and dance with us again?
I...
Don't have the right to.
After the break, Mitsuzane meets that man...!!
He'd drifted quite a distance before that boat recovered him,
so it's frankly a miracle he even survived.
So, you can't help him?
I'm sorry. His body may heal, but the damage to his brain has been immense...
We don't have any means of treating him...
Brother...
What am I going to do?
What is this place?
Hey!
Kouta... Kazuraba?
Sorry to barge into your head.
But I guess this is the only way I can talk to you now.
I see... it's all over, isn't it?
The weight's been taken off our shoulders.
Yeah. You've suffered more than enough, Takatora.
The weight you had to carry is way too much for one person to handle.
"But you can rest now." Is that what you want to say?
I guess.
But the thing is, there's one last favor I want to ask of you.
You just can't let me go, can you?
Well, it's something only you can do, or I wouldn't ask.
Well, what is it you want me to do?
I want you to go back to Micchy.
You really think he'll listen to what I have to say?
I know going back to his side is going to be really tough after everything that's happened...
And maybe you'd be happier if I just left you to sleep.
But...
I need you to tell Micchy...
That no matter what happened in the past, he can find a new path and move forward.
I wasn't even able to change my own course.
Don't give up that easy. People can change.
Even someone like me was able to become someone new.
You can transform yourself, Takatora!
Kazuraba...
If you can't forgive the person you've become, then you can try and change who you are.
I need you to teach that to Micchy, Takatora...
By your own example.
You're right. This will be tough.
But will you do it?
Brother...
On the finale of Kamen Rider Gaim:
This is my stage now!
Who is that Armored Rider?!
A new enemy!?
Kouta's not here anymore...
So we'll have to be the heroes in his stead!
Final Episode: Transform! And Face the Future...
We'll always be friends.
