Ken— He chose the road of samurai which is along with death and separation.
Kimi— He has changed because of your influence, the rest of your life is a life with happiness.
In sequel, "Magatama Selection" will take the role of trigger to advance the story instead of the normal selection in prequel.
Magatama Selection includes four attributes that called "shikon(four souls)": courage, wisdom, love, and friendship.
Shikon's state changes depending on player's selection. That is, your selection will increase the value of a particular shikon, and eventually these different states will divide the ending into "Ken" and "Kimi".
