He then explains that he took such drastic measures to save his future because he knew his own end was near and he wanted to die knowing his apocalyptic timeline would not occur. After his defeat by Yusei, he tells him that his device that has been prolonging his life will soon shut down, but says it is fine and his life has reached his limit. He not only got better a moment later, but got the ultimate 11th-Hour Superpower out of it to boot: he became the Sixth Signer and brought forth "Life Stream Dragon," the Signer Dragon that had been missing the whole anime!)

Not only does it have strong parallels to Carly's fate in the Dark Signers arc (with the exception that, unlike Carly, they don't get better) but it's one of the few moments in the series where Yusei breaks down in tears. ZONE was left alone and was force to use his friends in order to create robots and travel to the past to set things right. But even when he and his friends tried to experiment to come up with a solution, all of them died of old age including himself. Essentially Aporia lost his parents, his girlfriend, and was one of the few humans left that survived the apocalypse. Yusei's facial expression gives away just how touched he is by his friends' words. Also when Jack, Aki, Crow, and the twins confront Yusei as he is about to leave them behind, asserting that they won't let him face the Ark Cradle alone. It's especially heart-wrenching when Leo/Rua bursts into tears.

Aki Izayoi's backstory is one of the most heartbreaking parts of the series.
