Awesome / Virtue's Last Reward

Go To

Virtue's Last Reward carries on its series' tradition of awesome.

Spoilers are unmarked per wiki policy.


  • Phi delivering a 30 foot dropkick to the back of Dio's head to save Akane. It never gets old to see her level the asshole in such spectacular fashion.
  • How about Sigma's plan to circumvent the bracelet's lethal injection in Quark's route? He fights back against the Soporil long enough to be able to get the Axelavir from Dio. Then, while still under the effects of the drug, he holds onto Dio while the much younger man fights back. And that last part? That was all just so that he could use the number 9 door to cut off his own freaking arm in order to avoid being killed by his bracelet. Pretty badass.
  • At the end of Alice's route, Sigma using what he learned during Dio's ending to get him to confess to being the leader of the Myrmidons and planting the bombs. You get to bust him in several other endings too, but it is much more simplified, and therefore not as amazing, in those endings. To be more specific, in Alice's route, Sigma pretends he's a member of the Myrmidons, and then lies to Dio and tells Dio that Brother no longer trusts Dio to carry out his mission, so Brother sent Sigma to keep an eye on Dio. This causes Dio to go on a long rant about how that can't be true, Dio is trustworthy and Brother knows that...at which point Sigma just chuckles, Dio having just blown his cover all by himself.
  • Alice herself gets one in her route. Upon discovering that Dio's people were responsible for her father's death and after listening to him threatening to blow up the AB Game facility with the detonator in his hands, she knocks him to the ground, grabs his arm from his back and attempts to twist it off. Listening to him squeal in pain is satisfying after putting up with his Jerkass antics throughout several timelines.
  • On Sigma and Phi's paths, Tenmyouji gets one, again relating to Dio planting the bombs. In addition to having balls of steel in the face of Dio's threat to detonate the bombs, he tells Dio that the detonator he's holding is fake — a lie, but Dio buys it for just long enough for Tenmyouji to wrench the detonator away from him. This inadvertently activates it, but his bravery is commendable.
  • Luna, when you piss her off by picking "Betray" against her. No, seriously. Two out of the three times, she'll break whatever orders she has been given to get Quark out. Keep in mind she's a robot whose second most important principle is "Follow all orders given, unless it conflicts a Thou Shalt Not Kill policy".
