Spoiler for Difference:

Well, Scythe isn't exactly an assassin himself and there's a difference between getting shot multiple times in non important areas and getting shot once fatally in a vital area.

Spoiler:

Well, having trained countless assassins, and the Phantom's himself, I'm sure he pretty much knows how to handle guns and how to kill a person. He shot Reiji 2 times near his heart and 2 times in the stomach, or a bit lower, I'm sure that's enough to kill a person.

The lesson that recent animes have taught me:

Spoiler for Lesson:

Cart = disappointing ending.

Spoiler:

Yeah, Lelouch was passing by...and decided to finish off Reiji himself.

Overall, if they were going for an original anime ending, I would have prefered something like this...

Spoiler for How the anime should have ended:

Reiji and Elen get married, and they also spend the night together, I don't care if they do it in the church.

Reiji meets Cal and have a showdown, not the stupid duel like in the anime. After some struggles, Reiji finally has the advantage and finishes Cal off, while he mourns her death.

Elen finishes off Godoh's men, then Reiji joins her and they have a showdown with the Numbers Sisters. They finally kill them, Elen finally reaches Sycthe and kills him, breaking the chains once and for all.

Elen finally remembers her past, they go to her hometown and just as they were about to start a new life, Reiji gets killed by a passing cart.

Elen mourns Reiji's death and finally the feelings of anger and hatred builds up on her, she storms Inferno's
headquarters looking for McGuire, she kills Inferno's men along the way and finally faces off against McGuire, she shoots him multiple times, and then throws him out the window, falling to his death.

Some time after, Elen discovers she's pregnant and decides to live for Reiji and the child within her. She decides that the nightmare is finally over and that she can live a normal life again.

Timeskip, 5 years later, we see a grown up Elen, visiting the graves of 2 people, Reiji Azuma and Cal Devens, she puts flowers on their graves and with her hands holding together(praying or something), then she gets up, and we see 2 children near her, praying as well. They seem to be twins, 1 boy and 1 girl. Elen grabs their hands and tells them....

"Let's go...Reiji...Cal..."

The End.
