/t/ - Theories

Contrary to popular belief, Mitarai's throat and arms had been slashed wit ha utility knife, not a box cutter.

While being held in a police station after the murder, Girl A is reported to have stated that she and Mitarai had a falling out after Mitarai slandered her on the internet, noting that she had attacked her weight.

In early versions of Yume Nikki, the Fat Effect is acquired by interacting with a mirror.

Girl A is also quoted as saying that she was sorry repeatedly, even immediately following the crime.

It could be argued that regret or guilt are running themes in Yume Nikki, especially given the ending.

Girl A was institutionalized.

One could say she was sent to an inescapable area.

And now the guessing begins.

Maybe Kikiyama knew Girl A personally.
If so, the themes in Yume Nikki may actually have happened.
Could Girl A have been pushed over the edge by more than just internet bullying?
Perhaps there was a lot more going on in her life.

So instead of a "Weird Dreams" or "Sanitarium" spinoff we actually got a "Super Columbine Massacre RPG" reboot with surrealistic artistic content, interesting theory.
Still 23 days to develop an RPG Maker 2k3 game with these elements seems impossible, just try it for yourself, unless you go 24/7 working on it, not having any PC issues or creator blocks and tell me if It's possible to do such thing. I think it could be actually more a foresee than inspiration, it's a very small world, remember.

>I think it could be actually more a foresee
That may very well be true.
If we believe that Kikiyama knew Girl A, and if the themes of Yume Nikki are based on Girl A's reality, Kikiyama could have been working on this for quite some time.

It is my theory that Kikiyama knew her personally and knew about what was going on in her head and her life. Or at least had an educated guess.

Of course, earlier versions are smaller, I can't quite remember, but v0.00 may have been more of an outline. It might have been possible to make in less than a month.

I think you can tell this is a plausible theory because almost no one has commented on it.

Deleted messages that were going to derail a potentially interesting thread into garbage. If you have nothing valuable to say, please don't post.

The mod who did the 1 second ban with the cute message will be spoken to, as they catalyzed more dumb posts.

"While news reports state that there were negative comments left on "Girl A"'s website by Mitarai (specifically that she was "heavy," i.e. overweight) which may have been the immediate motive for the murder, investigation has shed more light on the issue. A police psychologist stated that "Girl A" was not mentally ill, and already had a history of violent incidents, from punching and kicking other classmates, to an issue with a knife the month before the murder.

There is some public speculation that "Girl A" may be suffering from (and does fit some of the classic symptoms of) hikikomori syndrome, but as of the present, no medical examiners have declared such. "Girl A" was also showing signs of withdrawing from social life, including quitting clubs, although she continued to play physical sports, particularly basketball, until shortly before the incident.

It appears that "Girl A" was heavily influenced by some of the more visceral aspects of Internet culture. An analysis of the case states that she "was a girl fascinated with urban legend, internet subculture, even going as far as guro. From her site she had linked shock flash movies and bizarre ASCII movies that would unnerve even the most hardened internet warriors." Her website showcased her interests, which included fanfiction about her favourite film, Battle Royale, and strange "recipes" (with names like "Curse of the Purple Skull" and "Demonic Art"). A particularly strong influence was the "Red Room" horror flash video, around which she based the site's design."
