Ending Boy Hänsel

"*One of the fragments that it gave birth to, his name is Hänsel.*"
―Narration

**Ending Boy Hänsel** is a song released on March 19, 2015 as a bonus track for the purchase of the Seven Crimes and Punishments album and Deadly Sins of Evil: Fifth Pierrot from Animate. The song follows the life of Hänsel Twiright and his reincarnations up until the end of the world.

## Plot

The narration tells of how a seed of "malice" inside a beaker birthed Hänsel Twiright, a boy able to reincarnate; he lives as a woodcutter's son who is defeated by a henchman, a slow-witted servant of light, a forest spirit who is the apprentice of a famed sorcerer, and now an apostle of the eventual true end. The narration states how he appears on the full moon with either a silver knife or glass bottle depending on the person.

It then explains how the gods created the world as a millennial kingdom that was supposed to have eliminated malice, with four endings according to its rules: The endings of the Masters of the Graveyard, Court, Hellish Yard, and Heavenly Yard, the final ending possibly leading to utopia. As each ending is unavoidable, ultimately no matter the conclusion, punishment is mete equally to all. It notes that Hänsel's destiny beyond the millennium is yet unknown, being either an angel or mad familiar depending on the person.

## Lyrics

A tiny, tiny seed of malice that wriggled inside the beaker

One of the fragments that it gave birth to, his name is Hansel

If his body should rot away, he’ll be reborn any number of times

That was the doing of gods, as a prank of demons

Once the child of a woodcutter living in the forest, he was tossed by the evil henchman into the stove

Once the servant of light, he was a dim-wit in charge of livestock

Once more a forest spirit, he was like a son to the famed Clockworker

And his true colors are as an apostle of the ending that will become canon

On a night when the full moon shines, Hansel will appear

Holding a deadly weapon tinged with light in his hands,

Whether that’s a silver knife, or a glass bottle

That depends on you standing before his eyes

This tiny, tiny world created by the four pillar gods

This millennial kingdom that should have eliminated malice

Four different endings were prepared in the rules,

What the boy holds in his hands may just decide them

The Master of the Graveyard brings death, everything goes to the master’s stomach

The Master of the Court brings the trial, everything receives judgment

The Master of the Hellish Yard brings hell, no one will ever be able to be forgiven

The Master of the Heavenly Yard brings atonement; this will show the way to Utopia

Any of the endings may come to the world

That certainly can’t be avoided

The established conclusion, or the distorted Irregular

Punishment will be given to all equally

Crossing the time span of a millennium, Hansel will appear

While not knowing his own destiny

Whether he’ll become an angel, or an insane familiar

That depends on you standing before his eyes
