Yeah. THAT episode is just as bad...

What? You thought this was going to be totally a breeze due to what's being crossed over with what? Well, the answer is still NO. Unmarked spoilers ahead!

     Prologue 

     Part 1: I Need You...Like a Hole in my Ed 

  • The Eds being reduced to an utter panic during the Sabbath. They've been through Hell before, but this was just a reminder of the horror to come. Thank goodness Devilman was born that time.

     Part 4: Come, Akira. Scream, Ed 

     Part 5: Beautiful Sirene, Unlawful Eds 

     Part 6: Neither Human, Nor Demon, Nor Ed 

  • Ed's situation, when you think about it. Either throw the race, thus angering Eddy for the umpteenth time, or win against Miko, humiliating her. He picks the first option, ultimately. Thankfully, circumstances prevent this from getting too out of hand. Still, one quote from him that even gives Miko pause and the first step to re-consideration.
    I'll just find a rock to mope on...Who cares if I have to make Eddy sad...again.
  • The poor aliens that are wiped out by Rex Formido in the end of the chapter. The mother and daughter aliens hugging and comforting each-other didn't help at all.

     Part 7: Weak Humans, Wise Demons, Active Eds 

     Part 8: I Must Know Myself and Ed 

     Part 9: Go to Hell, You Eds (A.K.A: THAT Episode) 

As the alias of the chapter can tell you, this is the episode that was bound to earn a spot here.

     Part 10: Thinking with Portals and Eds 

  • Just when things seem to be getting better with the awakening of Vishnu, Yumi's soul is suddenly absorbed into King Ghidorah. Doubles as Nightmare Fuel, but Mikiko's reaction to it and the aftermath are miserable sights. Just when we thought she'd be Spared by the Adaptation. She gets better at the very end, though.
    • More specifically, she's willing to fruitlessly fire shots at the golden hydra while shouting "GIVE HER BACK!". Granted, she realizes her mistake, but still.
  • A minor one, but Eddy is willing to pull a near Heroic Sacrifice to save Edd and the others from Devilbreaker during the portal incident alongside Kaim and Trax, even if it causes them to hurtle into the unknown. It all works out and Miki states right afterward that they're not dead, but still. After what they've been through, can you blame them?

     Part 11: A Sound of Ed 

  • As one might guess, the Cul-de-sac residents reaction to Ed's demise is a prime example, as they react with disbelief and, even in Sarah's case (especially, actually), despair. The following funeral drives it right home, complete with a storm.
    • The funeral in question? He's buried next to the Chunky Puff's factory, Edd can barely get himself to leave after it's all said and done, and the epithet..."Here lies Ed. He smiled for the world, no matter how horrible it was. Kronos bless."
    • Oh, and Mikiko places a smaller but no less meaningfully grave for Yumi. She ends up holding Edd in a tear-filled hug for a while. Really drives home the contrast as to how she was at the start of this fic.
  • Kaim's Curb-Stomp Battle at the hands of Devilbreaker, set to State of Mine's cover of Rascal Flat's "What Hurts the Most". Just how brutal it is will get to you. Thankfully, he turns it around with a Heroic Second Wind.

     Part 12: Crybaby 

  • Ed's return is more of a happy version.

     Epilogue 

  • In a twisted way, Ryo/Satan's desperate pleas for Akira to join his side, even as he's been Dragged Off to Hell by Red Guy. While it does become more frantic, it still shows that, though the Devilman didn't die in this continuity, he truly feels like he's lost everything...and he's just realizing it now.
    • Akira's reaction is just as bad. He really does want to forgive Ryo, but, after all he's done, he feels like this is for the best.
