I sobbed again with eps 43-44, my heart aches for the leads, we all knew it wouldn't be happy ever after, but…
I'm pretty sure he died. The ending scene with ML walking through the streets in Tokyo is more of a nod to the mystery of who the ML was. Per the show, all records of the secret spy organization operating in Japan were destroyed before the Allied forces entered Tokyo. at the end of the war.
Ep 42 is definitely the peak for me. The confrontation between Ye Degong and the commander - chills.
I might need to amend that statement lol. That scene with Ye Bingying all alone on the runway seeing the multiple planes crashing and then that lone plane being able to land at the airport was so moving. Perfect imagery that amidst such chaos and destruction, there is still hope.
Catching up on this. A bit roundabout and slow in the past few episodes, but hopefully all the the threads will come together soon. I hope we reach a good climax in the last several episodes - but I know it's going to be hard watching knowing the real history.
