Interesting movie but something is unexplained

I had zero expectations before I watch the movie so I enjoyed it up until the last bit scene before the ending and the ending.

The movie perfectly captures the horror theme associating with an urban legend that haunts the island. I got really hooked while watching as the movie had a clear, smooth, logical flow of the story, had a normal pace and scares you time to time. Though I wish they would show more about the main character (Tomohiko) as it feels like there's something the audience didn't know much about him.

In the ending however, it's quite confusing and I understand the director wanted to make an open ending for the audiences to think or wanted to make a part 2 of the movie but in this types of films, I really expected a straightforward ending that satisfies the audience (but maybe that's just me idk) it feels like all the efforts that Tomohiko did is useless considering how the movie ends. The little bit of romance at the ending is rather shocking as I thought Tomohiko and Tamaki would just remain friends and no other feelings involved are present.

Also, Shigeru destroying the computers to save Imajo + killing hilmself after just didn't make sense. I understand the suicide part as everyone hates him except Rin but he didn't need to care about the VR research team.
