The good guys don't win the traditional sense. The bad guy isn't really beaten, because there really is no big bad. It's the way the universe works in this setting. They can't really win. But they can't stall things forever and there a special kind of heroism in how it's done.

It was also well set up. This ending didn't come out of nowhere. I hate it when shows do that. The side effects of King Form were already established, in typical dangerous final form style. Using it in that way was very well written.

It's so great. Kenzaki saying I Can't Beat This But Together We Can Endure It by just joining Hajime. Not overpowering him, or diminishing him, but accepting the risks of walking in his shoes.

The Sealing Stone always being out there, I just love that metaphor. There's always something out there that you can't reason with, can't eliminate. Not everything can be defeated. But we can work together to keep the world spinning. That's heroism.
