I think it's really interesting that you can see some Buddhist influences in this style of work. The constant craving for an object of desire (in this case Alice) that leads the protagonist to experience cycle after cycle after cycle of suffering. It's only after sufficient knowledge is gained that the problem can be cut at the root. This last sequence of fights against the Crawling One, Jubjub, Jabberwock, and Bandersnatch is reminiscent of the last temptation of the Buddha by Mara and his three daughters under the Bodhi tree. Grimm failed to let go of Alice and escape after fighting the Crawling One so he did the next best thing. If you can't beat the Jailer you have to break the Jail itself. In this metaphor the Grand Guignol would represent the six realms of Desire themselves. The nature of the Crawling One is the nature of Dukkha, an endless craving without true fulfillment. At most a temporary one. "Love, when obtained, loses nearly all of its value". Because to her the meaning of love is the yearning that comes with it. A form of longing and attachment. It is only after letting go of Alice and surpassing the Jail that we can be free. It's just too bad that unlike the doctrines of Buddhism this is not a story of hope though. What awaited at the end of this particular journey was not enlightenment but even more heartbreak. But still, I don't believe this was just coincidence.

"If you want allies, starting over is an option." Dr. Dog(not the band), Alice winter ver., and homie Carnacki fight a mechanical god. I see this moment as a subtext of development for Grimm. Ever since the first game he's been more or less all alone, he's lost a lot of people he grew close to. But that is no reason to carry such a burden all alone, no one can and should not be all alone.

I remember trying to fight it the first time around without help (Because they're all dead). Ended up getting stun locked into rage quitting. So imagine my surprise at how easy the fight is with just one helper at your side. Kinda make me wish Melinda and Heinz were around to help with that one Lindameia fight.

I would go on to fight the nightmare mockery of Wonderland made manifest with Furry Florence Nightingale, Thomas Carnacki Who decided to multi-class into Paladin and Detective, and Gerda from Snow Queen I would have never believed you. But now All I can say is Pure, Absolute Peak Fiction.

I think one of the reasons Grimm had such a hard time letting go is that deep inside, he thought he deserved the hell that Wonderland was. Offering your soul instead of fighting represents the final submission to this; Grimm giving up after being unable to escape even after learning the truth and falling into despair completely.

@@gametime8300 probably one of the most fundamentally broken protagonists I have seen. From the make up its multiple souls fused as one, with even a pedo included. Then his soul was tainted so black from all the fucked up acts he did out of desperation, even if his memory was lost every cycle. Escaped from one garden only to be trapped another, and only gained freedom at the cost of losing everything dear to him in the end.

And it gets worse when you find out that all the endings on BS1 are cannon since the world got reseted after every ending, meaning Grimm probably went through all the companions bad endings + Mary Sue's one (the most traumatic imo) god knows how many times.

When I defeated Grand Guignol. I stopped playing. The story ended right there. When the story ended, my vicious cycle of torment finally ended with only the feeling of longing, and regrets, and those culminated into suffering. It was to remind me of what I have become after those endless unwinnable wars in my mind. Being obsessed with Alice was my longing for those memories that I could no longer come back to, and the dreadful anxieties and traumas I had to endure. Now I have to move on because she definitely wouldn't want me to linger on our past memories that will no longer come back again.
