Background
Note: This song is known as Requiem of the Endless World in western fandom, but Requiem of the Self-repeating World is more suitable. This tradition comes from Motokokusanagi's mistranslated title.
"Meguru Sekai no Requiem" was first uploaded on December 19, 2012 as the third and final song of the Synchronicity Series. At the same day, the album EndlessroLL was also released, with "Meguru Sekai no Requiem "as one of the tracks in Yamashizuku's first major debut album. On December 29, 2012, the song entered the Nico Hall of Fame (exceeding 100,000 views).
The song ends the three year cliff hanger of the series, with Rin and Len finally reunited. Their wishes are completely opposite of each other's; they face their fate, singing to the dragon so it can "sleep for an eternity" even if it means giving their lives away. However, instead of both of them dying, they live, and are successful in sealing the dragon away forever. Whatever happens to them next is up to the interpreter.
