Things progress
to their final resolution by returning to the moment that Jeanne was
shot, it turns out that she didn't die but it doesn't change the fact
that she is dying. That with this act Mitsuhide is aware of Cesare
and kill him for his interference, although he is also intending to
kill Nobunaga because he got what he need from Jeanne. However things
don't go as he hopes with Nobunaga summon the Fool which also him to
final meet with King Arthur. This allows to see the true appearance
of Arthur which is that of an old man trying to escape death with
obtaining immortality and give everyone the world that they dream of.
In the end Nobunaga can't accept living in a world that is trapped
inside a dream, that truth is preferable over the illusionary world
that Arthur promises even if that means that both him and Jeanne are
going to die. This refects the Japanese ideology of life that in the
end it only has meaning if it can end. That to live is to die, that
something that can never die then you can say that it has never live
at all only that it existed.
That this meeting
concluded Nobunaga has his final battle with Alexanders where they
wheld the full power of their planets Shinki. Which turns Nobunaga
into a black dragon and Alexander into a golden Dragon. That it is
through this conflict that they summon forth the Holy Grail, this
also leads us to see Arthur true goal that it wasn't about harmony or
immortality it just that he want to be reunited with his lost love
but because of Nobunaga's nature as the destroyer-king he destroys
the Holy Grail and with it Arthur's dream. Then not long after Arthur
is kill in the aftermath of their battle. However now with Alexanders
defeat Nobunaga doesn't stop destroying.
That with the
battle finished Mitsuhide go to face Nobunaga, and the question him
on why he doesn't stop. That wasn't their dream to unite heaven and
earth, that if he continues then there will be nothing left. This
leads to the final confrontation between Mitsuhide and Nobunaga, that
in reality Nobunaga with all his power he could of crushed Mitsuhide
in an instant but he doesn't. The reason is that he want Mitsuhide to
kill him so that he take the tools of war with him to his grave. That
in the end Nobunaga does achieve his goal of uniting Heaven and
Earth, but it was never his destiny to rule over it. The greatest
irony is that Da'Vinci got the roles reversed that Nobunaga was Judas
and Mitsuhide was the savior, that in the end he choose to paint what
he wanted in the end. However we do get our happy ending with
Nobunaga and Jeanne meeting once again after they have been
reincarnated.
