Not having played Sword of Vermillion, although having listened to the music, I cannot say if there are themes in this ending theme that are similar or reminiscent of other themes throughout the game, this track is the ending theme, and credits music done right.
As implied by its title, Sword of Vermillion is a fantasy action RPG where you are tasked to save a kingdom by killing the BBEG. The fanfare that intros the song is a classic fantasy motif all around. The bulk of the song is not overtly melodic but just builds and builds in a way that congratulates the player for saving the kingdom and likely the world. This song just exudes heroicness and you, the player, should feel amazing for the feat you just accomplished. If the cutscene before the credits did not do it for you, then this song is a last-ditch effort to instill you with a sense of accomplishment. Hell, I have never played this game and I feel accomplished in my recently completed task at work.
Again, not having played the game and while I am not about to watch the entire 12-hour playthough to find out if the explosions at the end of the song are specifically referencing anything that happened during the course of the game, but I was a little disappointed to find out that there were not any explosions or fireworks during the credits to accompany these sound effects. But that disappointment was short-lived because of how happy this song just makes me feel.
Good job song.
