I don't get why people are saying the story has no point just because he didn't die. The point was him finding value in his life and going out of his shell, learning to see and receive people's affection and also reciprocate those feelings. He learned to be a better person, to be honest with his feelings and to not fear getting closer with those who show him affection. All this time he was afraid of loving someone and being left behind cuz he thought his mother had abandoned him when that was not the case. He also thought he didn't need love or companionship since he learned to be alone all the time, but by being put on a life or death situation he changes his mind about it. There's a point and he didn't need to die for the story to make sense.
