Sho and Kan erase their existence, allowing HImari to have a full life, but leave behind a memento that triggers some memory.

So why is it I felt good about the other two, and this one left me feeling... meh? Maybe because it felt like in those first two there was a struggle and ultimately while it was bittersweet there was still some promise while this one seemed to be more of "best compromise that can be made given the rules"...
