A world where people seek to resolve differences of opinion without violence such as spinning tops and children’s card games

I am completely and utterly in love with this ending. This isn't just Law at it's absolute best, it also shows what the heroic part of Law encapsulates: peace, harmony and cooperation. The fact that Zelenin ultimately refuses the mindless world of Law and fights for a better future says a _lot_ to me, and I feel like this is perhaps the best Law ending in the series, hands down.

This, friends, this is the embodiment of everything good that the Law alignment represents. This is what people fight for when they fight for peace.

I dare say this is the best law ending in the entire franchise for how tragically empathic it is. It's not about order or even that much about God, but about the eternal desire of people for suffering and hate to finally end forever. Though lingering the implications of how fragile such a paradise would be if it was an isolated community rather than universal, and how the instinct to inflict conflict is what accelerates our growth, in the end, we will never stop wishing we didn't have to. At least, that's how the new law theme makes me feel, there's just nothing of the self-righteous douchiness it usually reflected, only sorrow for the unnattainable.

What's interesting is Mastema in IV acts the way Zelenin does in this ending, but Mastema here is a much worse creature who doesn't think of humanity at all beyond the context of God.

Best law ending in the entire series hands down. An actual law ending. A world with freedom, but instead of competition, it's harmony and cooperation between humans. The hot chick had character development in the first hour of the path more than herself in the entire base game. Best law ending.

It's like the New Law Ending was done to spite Mastema, in-game and in-universe.

Wow. ...that was... Really good. It actually made me tear a little bit. This is one Law ending I can absolutely say I like. Like other comments said before me, it's not even about God or angels anymore. It's about the happiness of humanity. One that, in this day and age, may be impossible to attain.

Ironic isnt it, lucifer agreed with Zelenin law-neutral Path but dissapointed at Jimenez Chaos-Neutral Path

I really like this ending! It's probably one of the best endings for the law route in recent years. And on a side note relating to removing humans aggressive and prone to fighting nature. I'd like to think that the main character was left with his drive intact. Because the way they have it happen it doesn't seem like the main character isn't actually effected by the rebirth caused by the cosmic egg since he himself chose how it would work. Sort of like a safe guard in case some force ever did try to rise up and take over the world again, He would be there to stop them, or at the very least inspire/teach people in the next generation to be there and rise up to the challenge should something ever happen. That way even if most of the world has lost it's fighting spirit, there would always be someone ready to protect the peace. Sort of like how the axiem in SMT IVA can create a messiah to help protect a universe whenever necessary.

I love how Alex and George try to reason with Zelenin. It's obvious from her speeches that she is either totally dedicated to her path, or completed enthralled by Mastama. ...is how she was originally portrayed. It seems that Atlus is toning down their dire ending routine.

Honestly, I love how the endings still keep the notion of the flaws of that ending. They do turn the original ones into bad endings, but really the original Law and Chaos endings were downers, while Neutral was always a maybe that as this game showed was just as doomed as the neutral ensing of the first SMT as the bad guys won later because people failed to learn from history and all the bad guys have to do is win ONCE, it also makes Arthur and Gore's sacrifice at the end of normal Neutral senseless since mankind had little to no idea on how to defeat the threat much less understand it (only enough to create an upgrade of the Demonica suit & weaponry, a portable version of Arthur and the functions to use forma in George, Time Travel and luck may have it a half demon willing to see the mission to the end) because the two who had ANY understanding are dead/destroyed and everyone else was likely sworn into secrecy or WORSE the Joint Project Board really were assholes and had them all killed to try and cover as much as they can up (they did try to nuke the Black Hole Dome of death from the outside rather then WAIT for your group to get out first, and everything about Jack and The Lightning crew makes it obvious a good many of the members in the project are opportunistic pieces of shit as Jack's immediate response was to intimidate you and your group before opening ANY channel of communication (hell only because as much as they can copy and make more REFINED versions of what you have through the leaks, tye Demon Summoning Program was not one of them seeing how it was the "Wise" Men who gave you and your crew the program and it wasn't made by human hands and even then they couldn't properly use it), they only really lost because while they did have better equipment, by that point you gone through a good many tyrants that it was the equilivent of Rambo with a Nerf Gun vs Chump's with Rocket Launchers that think HITTING an infantry target directly is "smarter" then hitting near them and letting the blast do the work for them, scratch that, that's describing the fight with Jack, his men were more of chumps with One shot then reload Sniper Rifles & Shit Accuracy. But back to my point normal Neutral becomes a Shaggy Dog story (and shows Gore's future sight wasnt absolute) thats "Hope for the future" but ended up being meaningless.

"I will keep it with me always, Alex." She kept it for like, 30 minutes

Take note here about mastema.He was MORE than willing to fight a losing battle in chaos and diet chaos,yet here he's incredibly reluctant.He knows that zelenin is still on his side and that she'll make people praise god.Plus,she had the upmost care for him even up to this point.Mastem really is the most human of the heralds.

I find it ironic that Jeanne of all people rebelled against God.

I love how in her final speech she mention the demons and the Schwarzwelt are no more, but that even more importantly, she flipped God. This ending is indeed a big "FUCK YHVH".

I don't know if this is on purpose or not but human world in this new law ending is EXACTLY the same as the Animal Planet in "Nobita and the Animal Planet". I read that as a child so I don't remember every details but there was a weird statue in the manga, too. When the Animal Planet get attacked, the people there needed to ask the statue to be allowed to fight back, which the statue, of course, agreed.

Zelenin is the only best Law hero in Shin Megami Tensei franchise, especially she gained character development.

I like seeing a Law candidate actually be reasonable. Zelenin heard Alex’s pleas and decided there was a better, safer way to create her ideal world: by using her own power. This is probably my favorite law ending which helps because I like Zelenin way more than Jiminez. This is the best law ending in the series because it isn’t obsessed with the same goals as other law heroes with God and Angels. She just wants peace. We need more female heroes.

Not only do I consider this better than other SMT Law endings, I consider it better than a lot of Neutral endings. Neutral, when you get right down to it, is essentially just maintaining the status quo above all else. And while that's certainly the better choice than falling into the monastic extremes presented in other Law/Chaos routes, it's still not a permanent solution, and conflict is still an inevitability. Here, New Law is indeed not as extreme as Law, but it's also something that's absent from Neutral routes- real, proactive change towards a better future. Same with New Chaos, too- both these routes either mitigate the chances of conflict arising, or give the common person the means to fight back against said conflicts. I really hope we get more routes like this in the future.

Just got this ending… “Are you crying??” “No… piss off”

An actual Good Law ending without genocide but humanity will be destroyed by outside forces

Mastema saltiest angel?

The mind blowing law ending.

A Law ending that I actually LIKE? The fuck?

How did we go from this to Dazai

okay I guess we’re just solve our differences by battling Pokémon!

May this world last.

Hmm this is a interesting Law ending. It's not the best but least it's not as sad as the pure Law ending.

I think Strange Journey’s True endings regardless of what is chosen are all great endings. They see the faults of pure law and chaos. I would like to say they’re some of the most neutral routes in the game.

We need more Megaten games where you can tell your alignment team member to reel it in.

This is Zelenin's redemption, I hated her so much but I liked her in this. This is a great ending, showing perfection and imperfection beautifully shown with the writing, the music and the graphics. Beautiful work.

I fucking most of the of Law endings in SMT, since god/his envoys just ALWAYS have to be mechanically inclined to go for the most efficient route of clearing out the dust with ill regard for what's humane: genocide, massacre, or selective persecution (I mean, it makes sense, god ain't human, he might know how a human would feel, but not exaclty what it FEELS to be human, you get me?) But even I liked this order of humane law through the removal for potential conflict in human hearts. It's HIGHLY idealistic, and yet, that's what makes it so inspirational. None of this absolute law garbage rhetoric, just straight-up envisioned paradise of peace through human cooperation.

Very strange thing to there at the beginning - you needed to say no to the question and make Zelenin realize her mistake - that would lead to the same ending but would make much more sense

Jimenez: I'll use these eggs to make the world in different way Tadano and Zelenin: I'll use these eggs TO BECOME GOD

Please come to Brazil ending

IS ZELENIN VOICED BY JEANNE D'ARC!?

What happens to the Red Sprite's crew? Assumedly they escape the Shwartzelt and return to earth but Zelenin converted them. They'd likely attempt to massacre the inhabitants of New Law's world like Zelenin and they'd be unable to fight back because they were cleansed of the will to harm another. As far as we know, the song is a one way ticket so they couldn't be unconverted unless an outside source outright killed them. I feel like this is a pretty massive oversight.

I like Zelenin more now...

I know it's meant to be a happy ending but I can't help but feel incredibly sad seeing Zelenin's statue and listening to the choir in the background 34:17

In this scenario: Lightning decides Orphan is full of shit.

I love this ending

So, I guess Zelenin became something where she can no longer stay with the protagonist and the surviving crew?

In the end it was all brazil

All chaos bois hate this ending i love it

No entiendo nada, pero se ve chido

The game look great, too bad i only able to play the Original version and miss this fancy new character

And then the Septentriones attack and earth dies.

I get that this ending is good and all, but I just cannot get over the fact that when Zelenin goes into her Pillar form at the end here, I didn't know that she would also go sugoi dekaiju like god damn. What I'm trying to say here, is that's a huge bitch.

Welp, it looks like they brought world peace. Just wait 'til Kang and Kodos show up and invade the planet. =P

Hard to believe a lot of my views concerning humanity used to mirror Old Ending Zelenin. Don't get me wrong humans will always be bound by their nature and those in power will always be drunk with it but we aren't completely irredeemable. Unfortunately I'd rather see it burn these days, let mankind destroy themselves. Maybe then, one day the world will know peace. SMT plot lines tend to show the extremes of each alignment.

so basically the new law ending just brings Brazil to the entire world?

BAD ENDING! THE WHOLE IS NOW BRAZIL! 🇧🇷🇧🇷

Someone knows the angelical song of the end?

Not as unfortunate as the Neutral

9:36

Perfect ending imo

I hope for dubbed voices Dlc

So does this ending replace the old law ending of the OG strange journey or do they both still exist. How do you get this one?

Whats the name of the song in the ending?

I can see how these new endings undermine the story to make it happier. Zelenin's power is entirely dependent on God, so she should not be able to rebel against God without losing her power. Also, how did she edit her song to apply to everyone? How did she change the effect to pacify people, rather than make them awestruck by God? It's not like Law and Chaos have had consistent underlying ideologies throughout the series, but this change makes it hard to understand what is going on.

Bad ending The whole world is now Brazil

In ds version you only get the original ending and not new ending so 3ds version is better but there is part for dlc if it comes to 3ds version

As of this comment, 215 people have cried every time they saw this ending.

Is that Yukiko looking Alex girl in the original game?

so what about when God's army descends and enslaves humanity...? what will they do then

It would be a plot twist if alex is the child of Protag and zelenin

...Why Is Lucifer supporting this path? Although Im not complaining...

...isn't this more of a neutral ending?

Law = canon.

This is a great ending. However the old Law ending is still a good ending and perhaps just as good

Very disappointing. They go with the cliche "power of humanity" route when both law and chaos have always opposed this logic. I feel like this is just a variant neutral ending. It also isn't as happy as it first may seem, because humanity is royally screwed now when anyone invades.

So, Atlus now advocates to make all good endings Neutral disguised as other alignments? I miss when the endings would make you think... Now they made their anti-law stance cannonical by even making Law screw Law, SCREW this new tendency.

A world lulled by a brainwashing song. This is not a good ending at all.

I don't get why people like this ending for
