** {{spoiler|Shuji's fate in the anime is to walk an empty earth, with nothing at his side but an [[Ax Crazy]] [[Energy Beings|energy being]] who "loves" him too much to end his suffering. It's strongly implied that said energy being [[Immortality Inducer|gave him immortality]], which makes the situation much worse.}}
