Talk about a bitter sweet ending. Poor kid ends up all alone. Parents home, sister gone, and a sprit friend moves on.
But, he at least said goodbye for one last time. Unlike some unlucky few, they don't even have the chance to say farewell.
@@afellowhuman2191 I can relate, lost my mom so this game hits me in the balls
@@justsomejoyousj Oh, I'm so sorry. I hope you're doing okay now.
I like that he'll probably try to find KK's family and deliver his last message. :,-)
@@gagaplex Definetely
Akiko has trouble letting go, first when his parents died, then later when his sister in a coma. Its so sad yet a relatable tale, as one of the hardest part of living is to overcome the feeling of loss.
Kiyv
Akito
i love how KK gets closure and finds peace but a big part of me wants him and Akio to just be a ghost fighting dectective duo
Well, he can fight spirits without KK. It can be a good continuation
One more K than we’ll be fricked
Akito
@@minhuang8769made me laugh ngl
actually made me kinda sad when KK left :(
Ok, minor correction (cause they literally say it in the game), the souls gathered by the katashiro aren't being sent to the "afterlife" by the pay phones. They're being sent to Ed, who according to KK, has a way of returning them to Human form.
You beat me to it. It mentions that in the game so I'm not show how that was missed.
Glad to hear it. Otherwise hundreds of thousands, maybe millions would be dead, even after "victory". 😱
@@CameronHuff Thinking about it, I think he may have confused what we were doing with the souls gathered by the katashiro, and how we were helping the Spirits who were giving us side quests.
To clarify, the Spirits we talk to and take side quests from are the ones who actually died, while the spirits floating around like collectables are the people who can still be saved. But given they're both Spirits, I can see where the confusion stems from.
There transfer outside the city and gained there now naked bodies back
I absolutely love the ending because of its bittersweet ending. Everyone's spirit peacefully passes on and Akito is in the exact same situation that he started in. Even though it's not the outcome that Akito and KK would wish for, they still achieved what they fought for. To accept people passing on when the time comes.
A game I HIGHLY recommend you should check out is - Three Random Archives. You play three short minigames all within one singular game. It's not really a horror game but it has a lot of secrets and easter eggs. It's if FnaF, Bendy and Dark Souls had a child lol. Cannot recommend it enough. I would love to see your coverage on the game.
Correct game is really good
@@scpagent5659 It's so fun and weird in terms of lore.
Not the souls comparison! Hahaha
@@tomatazoo I had to do it lol
Heh well another playthrough would be interesting
Man, I feel bad for Akito.
He lost everything and gained nothing but closure.
How could you lead a full life when all of this shit went down, you have no living person to rely on be it friends or family, and any friends you had here are gone.
I love how akito being posessed goes from violent screaming to just casually pulling kk back inside
Maybe because he was reluctant at first then came to except and even embrace it?
The Japanese character motivation trope of fighting for your loved one(s) always starts off sympathetic/endearing and then turns idiotic near the climax.
"Yo bro, I don't think my sister wants me to help her. Maybe we should let the world turn into a demon-infested hellscape after all"
Maybe he forgot to eat Snickers Bar
I mean, emotion sometimes does that to folks...
To be fair we get glimpses throughout the game that Akito has a lot of shit he's dealing with in regards to his sister especially after their parents already died. He was likely already struggling and blaming himself for what happened to her. KK and the fighting were helping keep him distracted but the closer he got to Mari the harder it was to distract himself and Hanya was able to pick up on his insecurities (likely due to their similar circumstances) and crack him for a moment, and just a moment was all he needed.
I really like the placement of the red/black flowers around mari and the final boss, as those flowers are typically used in funerals and it adds another meaning
They’re called spider lilies.
I really liked this game, it introduces Japanese folklore to younger people as well as other cultures ☺️
As a person who is half-Japanese, I’m Surprised that the developers of this game did a lot of research about Japanese folklores.
@@arturosandovalsaito2704 nice! I’m a history geek and I love seeing all the little details, I talked my sisters ear off about the mythos that I saw in the game when I was first watching the play through ☺️
I'm really looking forward to playing it myself. But I'll wait for it to go on sale... ;)
@@arturosandovalsaito2704 The game is made by Japanese gaming company bruh
@@gagaplex Already on sale now
One minor thing (potentially). In the voice log files from 'a certain scientist', it's stated he's recording the logs using an application made by his colleague. Since the only other character we know who dictates everything to tape is Ed, I assume he's talking about him. Which would mean the spirit hunting team and Hannya were former colleagues, and the man in the photo with his face scratched out is Hannya, not KK.
I was wondering why KK's face would be scratched out.
In fact, when I first saw that picture, I thought the guy with the scratched out face was Hannya, while the others would be his three assassins. Also, we never hear much about Dale (even less than Ed, I think), interestingly enough.
It's could be true cause why kk want to hide his face like we literally already saw his face at the hospital part
I think it's interesting that Akito and Hannya both mirror each other in their trauma
They both went through deep personal loss and took the wrong paths to recover from it, and that led them both down the story of the game
Just an observation :)
That because kk manage to get inside Akito body... Imagine if kk arrived a little bit late or somehow get captured, Akito probably would follow Hannya path
Honestly, both the protagonists had mirrors to Hannya, I find it really neat.
Have to say, seeing many of the current horror games, it’s more interesting to see another action and battle packed horror game, if this is a horror game anyway.
Probably action thriller, but people probably get the message regardless
It's not horror in the traditional sense. It's more thriller and some really good suspense. A lot of the terror and horror come from the implications of things and how the Visitors come into being.
This is what I've always wanted, a game full of Japanese mythology.
played nioh or persona 4?
@@paolobucci2761 no, but I did hear persona was really good so I will have to check it out
This is very interesting and fascinating and a very incredible explanation of Ghostwire Tokyo always wondered what the deeper meaning was with it’s symbolism and metaphors, Incredibly in depth explanation SuperHorrorBro of Ghostwire Tokyo have a incredible day

I am still salty that after you do 3 different fetch quests to fix up Rinko's Bike. You don't even get the feeling of mowing down Stray Rainwalkers with The Bike before it being destroyed in a Cutscene. Like at least, make us drive into The Fog ourselves. That would be infinitely more enjoyable than watching it get destroyed in a Cutscene.
I love this, your voice is so calming, and I really love how you explain the stories of fascinating games like this :)

Hi❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Bro what?
Why?
Oh 😮 what you doing now I need you help with the water for now
I love hearing about the stories to these horror games like White Day, Little Miss Fortune, Fran Bow, Happy Humble Burger Farm, etc. I also love learning about the creatures that appear in those games like White Day! I love horror.
I love this guy’s voice! He explains stuff so well.
Facts
Ghostwire Tokyo is so interesting! I love the influences it takes from Mythology and incorporates it with other spiritual aspects.
This game is great, I played it and the story is wonderful, I recommend it. The moral of the story is vague in the beginning but executed well in a great tone. The emotions are genuine and the characters are lovable (I do love the antagonist for his desperate attempt to bring back his family) and etc.
I like the idea of merging the Afterlife with the world of the living in a singular world.
It really is a neat idea. If not for the demons and whatnot it’d sound wonderful tbh
The only thing that annoys me about these stories is that it's always a parent trying to reunite with thier spouse and single child. Always that. That's the villains motive. I'm a bit bored by it.
maybe but you had to think how much it hurts for that person to lost a family he tried so hard to love and protect, if that had happen to me i would have probably turned into a villain in someone else's story(if not my own)
Got a better idea? Everything has already been invented, it's just how you handle it
@@dcry1003 I can agree. My dad lost my mom and I honestly can see how death can drive you mad
@@rougestarlight4308 it's not that I have any better idea, it's just that anytime a story has the dead invading living done by a person it's always to get some undescribed family back. A family we never learn about and thus I never care for. Maybe if we got to meet these family members it would make this troupe more engaging because they would go from items to actual people.
@@dcry1003 I think that's the problem, I dont know his family. I dont really know anything about his wife or kid. Not enough for a connection. I think this troupe would benefit from the family members being explored as well.
Idk, I just keep seeing it over and over and yeah it makes since, I just wish I cared I guess?
I really wanted to see the face of the Man in the Hannya Mask, it would have made it so that we knew that there was still a human under there, who just wanted to see his wife again. But who lost his way.
I'm pretty sure that not showing his face was intentional for that very reason. Hannya may have originally done it to be reunited with his wife, but by the time of the game he's really doing everything in an attempt to deny his existence as a human.
He has effectively "become the mask" in doing so.
you should try out The Mimic, its a roblox horror game based on japanesse urban legends, I've played it and it can't cease to amaze me the lore is spot on, graphics work great and controls are pretty simple to master. While also introducing strategized gameplay and hidden secrets among its maps, chapters and most recently book 2.
Never thought I’d see roblox recommended
@@spleens4200 the mimic is unique enough to be its own horror game
@@gongerman9754 still, I’m Shocked
It's actually pretty scary, I had to play in windowed mode lol
Scary and cool. I loved this game after leaving some fandoms
Honestly SuperHorrorBro is my favorite CZcamsr, I literally make sure I like every video. I love them all
I’m still confused, is everyone who has lived in Tokyo just permanently dead or did they all get revived at the end of the game?
big chance they get revived in the end
oh no…
The do
you're collecting the spirits of the people who disappeared from shibuya and by doing so you're rescuing them and they get reincarnated at the end of the game. the nice touch is that the amount of spirits mirrors the population of shibuya
Super dead
Damn. That's a bittersweet ending.
A game so painfully relatable to reality! Letting go of the people you’re not ready to can lead to immense turmoil, but eventually, you gotta learn to let go.😭
Been waiting and looking forward for this video ever since you played the game. It was worth the wait
This game was an emotional train for me, with everything KK and Akiko had been through along with the rest of of cast. The ending was sad but it kinda told a little story in the end about forgiving and letting go, which is sweet.
Your analysis videos are so great to watch! Thank you for making them every time
I always love these videos. So much. Thank YOU creating them!
This game was a lot more fascinating that I first thought it would be. Thanks for sharing your playthrough and other videos with us Mike! Appreciate all the work you put in this channel.
Damn, KK getting kidnapped as much as Princess Peach in a single game!
6:15 Wow, thanks for the VERY flattering picture of Mari.
In short a story of letting go, closure, spirit detectives, modern comentary on japans social issues and japanese folklore and spirituality all in all id say a really amazing game
Thank you for this! This game was a lot of fun to watch, but I honestly got lost with the story several times. Thank you for clearing everything up!
Hey, I really like your videos
Just wondering if you’ve ever heard of a game called Sea of Solitude. It’s not outright ‘scary’, but I think you might have some fun looking at it if you haven’t already, I think it’s a really good game
I think that be interesting. I played it before and completed it
Awesome video man! I love ghostwhire Tokyo and I was waiting for this video.
I just finished watching the enemies explained video and was wandering if there's a story explained video. What a coincidence.
excellent video. what i have been waiting for at the perfect moment :)
Omg, I’ve been waiting for the story to be explained! This game is so interesting!
i love you channel, SO GOOD content holy god
A game I really want to see you play is Venge, it’s kinda like Poppy Playtime. Not really any big youtubers have played it and it is a really underrated game.
Isn't that the game whose developer accused the Poppy Playtime people of ripping them off? Would be interesting to see, including the similarities and differences.
Superhorrorbro I love your story explained videos it helps knowing the whole story of games.
I almost teared up when kk asked alito for the last favour I definitely like kk alot
Love this channel so much!
The ghost possession mechanic reminds me of Cellobrimbore and Talion.
If the ghost leaves it's host the corpse dies all over again.
I'm just a bit sad because I thought that the devs would show what happened to Tokyo after the man with the Hannya mask got defeated and how Akito lived his life, but hey overall Ghostwire: Tokyo is a really good game.
FINALLLYYYY! I'VE WAITED FOR THIS!
I’ve been waiting so damn long for this
A classic style superhorrorbro video nice job love your channel I'm an old fan
you know it isn't a horror game technically but I think you could do some really good analysis videos on the Arkham series
FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING!!!
The story is both scary and touching. It also inspire us to have the courage to face our inner demons, let go of the past and move on. Thank you for sharing!
While akito was screaming the subtitles said " [applause] " loll
Great rundown of a pretty awesome game, thank you!
It’s always fun to watch your videos
Hi I love this and I hope you get 2m subscribers and I hope you have a good day
your the best youtuber i seen. :)
YES I absolutely love your videos and I've been waiting for your story explained of this game!!! :D
tks for this explaination love it summary is great
another mike vid cheers :D
Dang onions! This is really a great game with a good story and excellent design! I would recommend this to anyone who has a ps5. I'm not crying; you're crying!
ive been waiting for this
until the end I never heard word "and then those souls back to human"
Jesus, so aftermath of this game, a city was massacred in single night, and nobody but Akito know what's happened
I think most of the victims were brought back to normal, except for those who were consumed by the visitors. Those people are definitely gone.
Was the rest of the world also in the state of this phenomenon or was it only in Japan? Cause literally no news outlet or FBI even pop up anywhere
@@Black_Girl_Central This only happened in and around Tokyo. The fog made Tokyo lose connection to the rest of the world.
@@Black_Girl_Central FBI lol that's such a USA thing to say, like they would care about what only happens in Tokyo
They were incomunicated. Everyone dissapeared so there was no one to tell what was happening
@@rougestarlight4308 I also think all this - regardless of how long you take to do all side quests and collecting - takes place in just one night. Not to mention there's all this supernatural stuff going on which might mess with time. Perhaps the rest of the world didn't notice at all or only considered it a serious internet blackout.
I’m a huge fan of little nightmares and ghost wire so when I saw the raincoat enemy I kinda yelled “SIX WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT OF THE MAW!”
This is the most sad yet so cool!

Brilliantly done
Akito really just lost everyone and everything he ever loved
I just completed this game tonight after 50 hours, first playthrough. I would say the lore and the feeling of loneliness is perfectly captured in this game. I completed all side missions, got all Tanuki, and all relics except for 3 that were underground somewhere, and saved 160,000 of the 240,000 souls and I had to stop there. I think the game fell short for me sadly. Especially Chapters 5 through 6. I had spent all these hours trying to upgrade skills I never needed. I love Japanese culture and was hoping for a similar Fatal Frame vibe which is kind of here, but also I think things felt extremely rushed near the end.
Honestly I love the monster designs and the grittiness of the environment, but the story wasn't as fleshed out as I had hoped. But overall I feel like the main point and motivator is just to collect things that in the end are not that rewarding.
I like how we don't mention what happens to all the people who disappeared in the fog
Nice.Keep it up!!
Wow I really like the Chanel 👍 🤩
31:37 bro got the scream so good he can be in an opera
I got chills at the end
Wait, let me get this straight. A spirit possessed a spirit?
WHAT
This game is so stupidly animeish yet somehow I unequivocally both love it and hate it.
Akito’s not a spirit- he’s a human
@@megumimasashige5803 I was talking about rinko and eirika.
Not possessing, controlling
Semantics
@@rougestarlight4308 semantics would be a valid counterargument if it was my interpretation of the events. SHB clearly said Eirika was possessing rinko. So , you can kindly stop with your pretentious apologist reaction to inconsistent writing.
@@grayghostxiii no
I love this video
YES!!! More ghostwire Tokyo!!!
I like the way you make your videos 😄👋
Nothing like two guys whit a tragic history working together to get what they want and being there for each other
that's such a well made game. I love it
Kk is doing fine, he shows up on my island and plays sweet tunes for me and my villagers.
I thought the man in the mask was the dude on the team with rinko and ed that we never saw
Just noticing how much of the plot depends on KK geting yoinked every 5 seconds XD but it still looks super cool
i dont watch the gameplay i just watch super horror bro mikes videos because their fun to watch
I cried when Mari saved akito and kk by rising up and redirecting the energy ball back on hannya mask man
Awesome and cool!
Yayy it’s here!!
Awesome!
I realized Akito and KK are like Venom and Eddie
Bitter sweet ending, great video game, great vid, i wish akito and kk just stay together and become a yokai fighting duo
Me.
Daddy.
@@Yupgodfuanime wait, what now
I enjoyed my time playing this game and now on to the dlc🔥
I wonder how Erika came to work with the group against her father. Neither the game nor the prelude seem to really get into this. I suppose she knew what her father was up to with regards to her dead mother and disagreed with it?
I'm guessing Erika could have been a rebellious teen.
This made me cry.😭
I been waiting for this 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
