Hundreds of years later, Luna remains in the tree as the branches spread out to ever more distant stars. Millennia pass, and she wonders to herself if she will be trapped there forever. She watches the Earth below her destroyed by an asteroid. Millions of years later, when the universe is now dead, Sun joins her there, and although they do not remember each other, they embrace and then fall asleep. a b "Fire Punch, Vol. 1". Viz Media.

The story is one Fire Punch’s greatest strengths , the world is covered in snow and civilisation is about to collapse, thanks to the ice witch who brought the snow upon the world. This brought out the worst in humanity, leading them to persecute the “blessed”, people with supernatural powers. Agni is constantly on fire and has the mental age of a 15-year-old. He suffers a lot throughout the series, but is basically a normal shonen protagonist (in the way he acts). After nearly a decade of enduring the pain, Agni has conditioned himself to tolerate Doma's flames. However, his burning vengeance is as fierce as it was on the day Luna was taken from him. As Agni traverses a frozen wasteland, he vows to avenge his sister and kill Doma. The difficult part for me with respect to the nihilism, and gradual recision of Agni’s character was that, I really enjoy stories with strong protagonists, one’s that I can identify with, or at least, can identify with their motives and reasons for being. Here, while the story is fantastical and, one can argue, damn near impossible to relate to much of anything going on, for much of the later story I couldn’t fathom, or even remotely understand, what the characters were doing. Or perhaps worse, how they got to thinking what they did and acting how they did with respect to the story prior, and that’s Fujimoto’s fault for the lightening fast pacing. Because of her regeneration being weaker, Luna dies in front of Agni, her last words telling him to live.Meanwhile, Agni calms Togata down, as they had been planning to abandon him after their secret was revealed. The two reconcile and Agni declares he is going to confront Doma, which Togata is eager to record for their film. They find Doma, now caring for a number of children, and after a brief conversation, Agni resolves not to kill him so as to end the cycle of vengeance. However, he is overcome by his memories of Luna's death, and ends up killing Doma and many of the children in a fugue state, recorded by Togata. Upon awakening, Agni tries to kill himself by walking into a lake; Togata drags him out, but catches on fire in the process and dies. Fire Punch, Vol. 2". Viz Media.

Fujimoto is an incredibly weird person, but he is incredibly talented. The artwork in portrays the harsh world of Fire Punch. Some panels are eerie and haunting, while others are...strange.

Also on the train is Togata, another regenerative blessed, and twisted cinephile who has taken an interest in Agni, aiming to make him the subject of a film as director. Togata kills all the Behemdorg soldiers on the train, saving a girl named Neneto from being raped and making her camerawoman.
