Affects the Credits Sequence

Credits Dialogue.jpg

The player's relationship with Takemura does not have a significant effect upon the ending of the game itself.

However, Takemura is one of the possible characters who can appear during the credits sequence if you saved him during Search And Destroy. If you didn't save him, he perishes in the attack and does not appear for the rest of the game, including in the end credits.

He calls female V a kuso-ama but I mean, we basically hung him and Hanako out to dry and Hanako's dead in the Aldecaldos ending so it follows that Takemura's to die
