You rejoin us at the start of the boss battle. I pretty much had the technique down before but made too many silly mistakes. Here, I barely move from the spot and just hope that he lowers the arm so that I can get some shots in. This might not be the most exciting finale, but it works. Afterwards, Breager vanishes and I'm warped to the endgame celebrations, and the final narrative. Darkoan got good again, the realm was safe(?????) and our hero was a legend.

We get a short credits list of bosses, and the game is over. Despite some annoying item hunting (wings of the falcon in part 11) it's a lot of fun. The acquisition of abilities to help you reach new areas almost gives it a Metroid feel, and I generally can't stand backtracking and ability finding in games, so it deserves credit for that. Also, this isn't the first blind playthrough I've tried - I did a Mega Man X4 one which got cancelled towards the end - but it's the first where I've succeeded, so yay. Oh, and there are some surprisingly satisfying narrative reveals - finding Majorita after hearing about her several videos ago was great, and the plot dump was welcome. Anyway, thanks for watching!
