This ending has the same FMV as the normal ending, with Yuu appearing and taking Rei's tattoos from her.

Where it begins to differ is when Rei wakes up the FMV is cut off right before she starts crying. As the credits roll, photographs of the characters show up through the credits. We see the characters waking from their cursed sleep, Miku and Rei developing photographs, Kei going with Mio to see the dam (the same location as shown in the endings of Fatal Frame II), and then finally the entire group being introduced to one another.

Regional Difference

In the Japanese version of the game, Rei's tattoos disappear as Yuu absorbs them. In the US and European versions of the game, the tattoos stay on Yuu's skin as he departs.
