Key's visual novels bad ends discussion

Air’s ‘bad end’ or ‘ends’ is/are also quite nice.

Haruka and Refrain spoilers: She’s removed from the world and ‘dies’ because the facade she kept up broke and the reality of everything pretty much destroyed her. She was ‘no longer of use’ because she lost her purpose, for lack of a better way to put it. Kanata in this route isn’t much different from Kyousuke, the other bros, Komari or Yuiko- She knows the truth which is why her explanations and questions, had you not read the entire VN, are quite confusing and carry a dual purpose- One of the reasons this route is -SO- good. She didn’t want her sister to suffer the reality. However, looking back at it after knowing the secret of the world, it’s one of the SICKEST bad ends I’ve ever seen. I absolutely love how dark it is. I could write more and make more sense but sleep.
