I feel a little sad for Schnee, but I hope his feelings for her (and his answer to that question about leaving her behind) is something that can change for the better along the way. Understandably, to him it hasn't been a long time since she was just a virtual NPC that he himself designed. But now she is real to him and has feelings for him. Treating her as an NPC and the world like a game now would just be running away from reality.

For the sake of letting Girard enjoy his final battle, Shin held back from using the power he gained after clearing the game. But I'm glad Girard realized and accepted it, at Shin's full power now the battle would probably end too quickly and a one-sided beatdown would be demoralizing, if not humiliating for those watching in his corner.

But even if Shin held back and turned off those NewGame+ titles he'd still be bringing his A-game from the pre-Origin fight, so it's not like he's holding back disrespectfully. One could argue that Shin without those 3 titles would be him at his previous best condition and what used to be his full power when Girard last saw him.

We've never seen any sign of this world's beliefs in an afterlife. They clearly have religion, and also Undead, but there's been no mention of what people think happens after you die. This world was originally game code, so maybe they go to Silicon Heaven, along with all other electronics. Except for photocopiers, who go straight to Silicon Hell.

Why does he even want to go home. He has the powers of a god and and endless array of hot chicks lining up to do everything he wants
