I've been listening to The Final Trial music on repeat I love it so much,,,just that happy up beat music with the distracting creepy tone in the back is perfect. Really fits the level really well. Olimar wants to continue on as normal just like the pikmin are but his life support system is on its final days and he knows something bad is waiting for him at the end. Really good sound design I love it so I drew something based off of it!
(Sorry the quality is so poor my camera isn't the best rip)
Dawn of the Final Day: 3 Minutes Remaining | FINAL EXECUTION
Taguchi Aritomo has been found guilty of creating the dream.
Preparing a appropriate punishment.
[Shadow is coming too, whether he likes it or not]
[MUSIC]
The shadowy hands that wrapped around Taguchi were cold. He kept his eyes closed as he and Shadow were both being pulled down into the ground. This is it. This is the end. The end of the dream. The end of the killings. The end of… him.
As the cold grasp of the shadow hands slowly begin to release themselves from the two boys Taguchi opens his eyes. The two are back at the steps of Yumenushi School For The Damned. At first glance everything seems peaceful and normal. Taguchi looks around for anything that can be used to kill or torture him. He is expecting fires, explosions, twisters, something! But, there was none of that. None that he could see from where he stands. With confusion all over his face he turns to Shadow, who seems to be staring up at the sky.
“Ah…” He speaks as he looks up to the blood red sky.
Dawn of the Final Day: 3 Minutes Remaining
The moon seems to have taken a new look. Or at least now Taguchi notices the moon looks like… that. Hollow eyes, a creepy mouth with lines of teeth, and it’s slowly plumbiting to the earth. Of course Taguchi instantly recognizes this as the moon from Majora’s Mask. What a fitting punishment to end a video game designer’s life.
“If those two were fucking there, none of this would be fucking happening…” Shadow mutters.
It seems like they won’t die any time soon. Death looms over the two but neither of them really reacts to it. Shadow is annoyed that he didn’t get his way and Taguchi is content with this being the end.
Two minutes remaining.
A voice rings in his head. Two minutes remaining? He doesn’t need to ask what the strange voice is telling him. He knows. Two minutes until the moon crashes onto them. Two minutes until his death.
But that didn’t bother him.
He moves away from the view of the moon and takes a seat on one of the steps. Thinking back on all the events that happened, in the end, this was a good ending, right? Taguchi gets what he deserves, Shadow is dead, and everyone can return home with no problem, right? Taguchi can’t help but to think about all the friends he made in this game. If they weren’t put here with him, they wouldn’t be his friends, right?
Then he thinks about old Taguchi and the events that happened during Hope’s Peak Academy. The old him did all of this due to all of the events. So why did he target everyone in his class? Wouldn’t the only target have been Leslie? And his hands… if he wakes up he has to face the reality that he can’t use his hands. He looks down to look at them. Not being able to draw or program or play video games will suck.
But once he can use his hands again it will all be worth it.
All the drawings he can draw, all the games he can both play and make… it will suck for awhile but there is hope. And his friends. Even if they weren’t his friends in the beginning they are all here for him now. This isn’t the end, this is only the beginning of his new life. He’ll be given a second chance, right?
One minute remaining.
The voice in his head speaks again. He blinks out of his state of mind, only realizing that he has been crying that entire time.
“Pussy.” Shadow’s voice comes from behind Taguchi. When did he get there? He doesn’t respond to him.
Though something comes into his mind again, aren’t people watching him? His friends that are still alive in the trial room, they are probably watching him think and start crying. Probably thinking that he is upset that he is about to die.
Thirty seconds remaining.
The moon continues it’s decent onto the land. The wind begins to pick up and the world begins to get hotter. Taguchi shouldn’t go like this. He shouldn’t be crying or look like he is sad. Let’s give them all a final goodbye.
“H-Hey everyone,” He says with a smile forming on his face “I’ll s-see you all when we wake u-up, alright?”
Fifteen seconds remaining.
This is the end. Taguchi looks to the moon. It’s so close, it’s almost like he can touch it.
Ten seconds.
Closer it comes.
Nine.
Closer.
Eight.
Almost there.
Seven.
So close he can almost touch it.
Six.
Taguchi reaches out his hand to the sky.
Five.
‘Let’s try to touch the moon.’ He thought. It will probably be the last thing he feels.
Four.
He can feel the nose of the moon with his hand. It is so smooth.
Three.
The moon is now on his body, quickly crushing him.
Two.
“It… hurts…”
One.
The moon landed right on top of Taguchi.
Right when the moon hits the surface of the room the trial room shakes violently. On the screen before you there is just static.
