[[WMG: The entire game is [=Suda51=]'s lovingly satirical parody of VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2.]]

Consider the following, ladies and gentlemen: The main character is a [[ThisLoserIsYou loser, a stain upon humanity,]] even though he accomplishes some honestly magnificent things. Quenton Flynn (''Quenton'' [[Franchise/MetalGear Raiden]] ''Flynn'') plays the foil to him, Henry, an incredibly awesome guy. Around the end of the game, the fourth wall explodes and bizarre twists come out. [=Suda51=] took all the basic, hated elements of [=MGS2=], turned them up to eleven, and set them on fire.
* Given that [=Suda51=] is now working with the Franchise/MetalGear creator on a new horror game, this seems pretty damn likely.

Bonus Boss is a disambiguation


He knew it all along, or at least he eventually caught on. But he made money, he bought more clothes and {{otaku}} stuff, he got to kill people with a beam katana, and he had fun; so, he doesn't really mind. This explains why he didn't bother trying to finish the plot at the end - he was already #1, and there was probably nobody worth fighting... at least until he met the BonusBoss.

Sylvia comes to assassins under the pretense of the UAA, and for a fee, offers them a way out, one last spectacular fight before death. She asks them to pick a venue and tells them to wait for their beam-katana wielding opponent, the 'No More Hero' as other assassins call him. Now, originally, this hero was Henry ... until Sylvia ran into Travis and realized from his story that he had to be Henry's brother.

It's the ''only'' way to explain why [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse she doesn't appear]] in ''Desperate Struggle'': [[spoiler:the epilogue after the credits that comes after the fight between Travis and Henry is actually set ''after'' the sequel. The mural/painting of the two brothers fighting is referring to a time long ago.]] Don't follow [[Tropers/{{X2X}} me]] yet? Let me break it down for you.

We find out in ''Desperate Struggle'' that [[spoiler:Sylvia and Henry divorced sometime between the first and second game. Obviously, their relationship seems to have hit some sort of stumbling block. While this doesn't rule out the possibility of the two never having sex before that point, it's not too far fetched either. Then, Sylvia shows up at the No More Heroes motel to make good on her promises from the first game before Travis goes off to fight Pizza Batt, Jr. [[PreClimaxClimax They do it.]] Their passion is so great that it culminates into a SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}}. "'''[[BrickJoke DOWNWARD FUCKING DOG!]]'''", [[CallingYourOrgasms ind]][[TheImmodestOrgasm eed]]. So, who's to say that Travis didn't impregnate Sylvia at that point? It becomes quite clear that Travis and Sylvia [[OfficialCouple hook up for real]] in the sequel, as in the epilogue Sylvia affectionately calls Travis "''my'' No More Hero". Or at least, [[ShippingGoggles that's how I interpreted it]]. I guess that it must have been some ''really good sex'' if [[KarmaHoudini Sylvia was somehow able to squirm her way out of the mess she caused for him in the first game with the UAA]]. Anyway, if Suda's words are to be believed about Travis' story being finished, but the series continuing, my guess is that Travis and Sylvia settled down somewhere and had a daughter who Travis named in memory of his half-sister Jeane (at this point, Travis doesn't hold any ill-will for Jeane, as she had a [[DeathEqualsRedemption Death Equals Reconciliation]] moment in the first game). Flash-forward a few years, and we're at the museum, where Sylvia is telling her daughter about her daddy and uncle and how they got to this point.]] But hey, [[MindScrew what do I know?]]
