You don't need the extras to know that he's still alive. It's literally revealed in the last chapter and we just didn't catch the symbols around. Even I was surprised. I really thought that he's already dead. T^T

I do think this was really beautiful -... but why wait until the extras to find out he's alive? I would have liked the main story to be longer and to explain how he finds out he's actually not gone? I mean I've read other manga where the ghost is actually more like an astral projection of someone in a coma, so I'm not surprised.. but this doesn't explain any of it.
