When you see them live the band freaking kills it on this song. Its their jam, and they actually wrote this before the rest of the tunes.

Just remember that The Protomen focus on live shows. At a performance a band usually likes to end with a big finale to extract all the excitement they can from the crowd. This epilogue is that big finish. Live-oriented, big-finish type songs are usually better live and often don't translate well when recorded.
If the rest of the album was the "movie", this is definitely the "end credits" song. It is an homage to the Mega Man games while not being a part of the story the other songs tell.

That’s exactly what I’ve been thinking! I actually have a concept going for a movie (one of the first things I thought was something along the lines of, “Hey, where am I gonna put Due Vendetta? Oh, wait. I forgot credits existed.”), complete with alternate endings to Acts I and III, since I’m writing it in chronological order album-wise instead of event-wise. For the ending of Act III, I just thought it would be a cool idea to have “Light Up the Night (Reprise and/or Part II)” in there. Funnily enough, the concept came from an idea I had that started off as a little skit meant to act sort of like a lyric note, and soon enough I was 7 pages in. Well, great minds think alike!

In my honest opinion this song serves as a great transition from Act 2 to 1. In a way you could state this song depicts the creation of both Proto and Mega while Wily's working on the robots he stole from Light as well as eight of his own. With that idea in mind, this serves as a great setup for the Protoman's fight against Ice, Bomb, Fire, Cut, Guts, and Elecman(men?)

In the last minute or so of this song, I imagine that's when the Yellow Devil makes his entrance, slowly being revealed by a steel door, then stepping out of the shadows menacingly. Mega Man looks up like, "Holy friggin' crap." Then, the curtains go down, the lights go up, and everyone in the audience goes for souvenirs, candy, and a bathroom break...just like Broadway! ^_^ (And if you've ever been to a Broadway show, you know this to be true.)

This song actually makes sense to be at the end of act 1 to me. It makes me think of Megaman fighting the robots himself without anyone interfering. Then slowly but surely, slowly burning out due to nobody helping him, he meets his end after meeting Dr Wily's real weapon (Yellow Devil/Zero idk) This makes a lot of sense especially if you heard the extended version.

i know this song isn’t canon, but to me it’s sort of a placeholder ending for the story until act 3 comes out. at the end of act 1, megaman realizes his brother was right, the people themselves are evil and don’t deserve to be saved. after he allows them to be killed by wily as punishment for goading him into killing protoman, this song represents returning to the fortress and tearing shit up anyway. “as i live, there’s no evil that will stand”

This has always been canon to be. The liner notes specifically end with Megaman turning around to face the castle again, followed by this song. And everyone who's played the game knows Megaman fights Wily at the end. To me, the story ends with Megaman defeating Wily, who's evil, but not stopping the robots that have overrun the city. Since the band loves referencing Streets of Fire, I won't be surprised if Act 3 begins with Roll seeking out her brother for help like Tom Cody and his sister at the start of that film.

This is the scene where Mega Man storms Wily's fortress. He fights a boss rush of every robot master from the first game, and just when things start getting tough, Rush appears and saves hit butt and Dr. Light sends him a message of encouragement. Our hero fights on, then encounters the Yellow Devil, curtain down at "Game Over." Begin Intermission. Well, that's how I see it in my head anyway...

@RyuTora2808 theres a difference in Megaman canon and the Protomen universe. in the protomen universe, Megaman left the humans to die after he realized they really dont deserve to live if they wont stand up for themselves. everything will make a bit more sense when you listen to the whole album in order. Personally, i thought of this as light looking back on everything that happened between creating Proto man and the events that took place during "sons of fate"

I'm not entirely certain on the story behind it, but it is my belief that this would come before the Sons of Fate, because at the end of that Megaman saw that humans would never fight, and gave up on them. If you haven't already, take a look at the lyrics in the description, as there are some critical plot points in them, especially for Sons of Fate.

It can also be thought as the "ending credits" As Protomen is meant to be a rock opera, Act One is done and gone and the actors of the Opera do a final roll call before the curtains close to reopen for Act Two Act One ended with Megaman surrendering after clashing with the Robot Masters as the characters in the story, the Robot Masters and Megaman now greet the public as actors who delivered us the story itself
