12 | ---- |
13 | !! Shuuen no Shiori Project contains examples of: |
14 | * AbandonedArea: The Music room in the OldSchoolBuilding A-ya, B-ko, C-ta, and D-ne always meet at for their occult talks. |
15 | ** Slightly subverted with the Film Club kids as 10 years ago it was still a normal HighSchool. |
16 | * AlphabeticalThemeNaming |
17 | * AlternateUniverse: The second novel is just this with all of the Occult Club members switching around the urban legends they got before; A-ya gets the Monkey Paw; B-ko, Mearry-san; C-ta, Doppelganger; and D-ne, Hide and Seek Alone. |
18 | * AnyoneCanDie: [[spoiler:[[EverybodyDiesEnding And everyone does]].]] |
19 | * ArtifactOfDeath: The Book and Bookmark of Demise. |
20 | * BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: [[spoiler: D-ne uses the wishes of the Monkey's Paw to become B-ko and to escape from her impending misfortune. Unfortunately, this backfires as becoming B-ko causes all of B-ko's misfortune to befall on her, also getting her killed by an impostor in the end.]] |
21 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: The Occult Club does just this at the end of the second novel. [[spoiler:The traitor [[YouBastard was you all along!]]...[[UnseenAudience or is it?]]]] |
22 | * ChekhovsNews: In B-ko's song, Warning of Imposters, the beginning is a tv forecast calling a chance of imposters in the area. [[spoiler: it ends up being her imposter.]] |
23 | * ColourCodedForYourConvenience: A is red, B is purple, C is some variant of green, D is some kind of blue, and [[OddNameOut E is yellow.]] |
24 | * CreepyDoll: D-ne's Ririka doll. |
25 | ** A-ya's bunny doll counts as this too. |
26 | * DysfunctionJunction: A-ya is a [[LonersAreFreaks loner]], an occult freak, and [[ManipulativeBastard quite frankly]], a [[{{Jerkass}} jerk]], B-ko, while [[TheAce seemingly perfect]], is actually a {{Mood Swinger}} {{Tsundere}} that's constantly worried about her image, and both C-ta and D-ne are {{Stepford Smiler}} [[StalkerWithACrush stalkers]] who are [[CrazyJealousGuy way]] [[ClingyJealousGirl too]] [[{{Yandere}} obsessed]] with the former two. And these guys are supposed to be [[AntiHero our protagonists]]. |
27 | * DwindlingParty: [[spoiler: Every character dies at the end of their chapters, until the entire cast has died.]] |
28 | * ExactTimeToFailure: If you do not fulfill Kokkuri-san's demands by one week, you'll die. |
29 | * ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: It's a bookmark. And it kills people. |
30 | * EvilPhone: C-ta has a case of this with Mearry-san. |
31 | ** [[TechnologyMarchesOn Apparently it can use]] Website/{{Twitter}} as well; [[LiteralMetaphor being "followed" now sounds so much more ominous...]] |
32 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: The smell of D-ne’s shampoo really sticks around. |
33 | ** B-ko mentions Mearry-san in their discussion about who’s watching A-ya. |
34 | * IronicEcho: “I will protect you.” |
35 | * LoveConfession: [[spoiler:D-ne to B-ko.]] |
36 | * LoveDodecahedron: D-ne is in love with B-ko, who's in love with A-ya, who either loves rumors or C-ta or maybe just [[ChasteHero doesn't care about love]]. C-ta, as much as he'd deny it, is obviously in love with A-ya too, and he also has a lot of moments with D-ne. |
37 | * MadnessMantra: “WHY WON’T YOU COME OUT WHY WON’T YOU COME OUT…” |
38 | ** “No no no no no no no no no no no that’s wrong” |
39 | ** It's been said you can't have a Shuuen no Shiori novel/manga chapter without a page of words repeating over and over. |
40 | * MediumAwareness: A-ya displays instances of this especially in the second novel. |
41 | * [[spoiler:MetaTwist: Invoked]] at the end of the second novel. [[spoiler: This is a Shuuen no Shiori novel. What do you mean, everyone's going to live?]] |
42 | * MurderIsTheBestSolution: They must kill the traitor in order to end the game. |
43 | * NoNameGiven: All we know is that their names might end in a particular syllable. |
44 | ** [[spoiler:A-ya's classmate who gets sliced in half and D-ne's classmate who ends up hanging off the building don't even get that much.]] |
45 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: The incident from ten years ago that started the rumours of the Book of Demise was [[spoiler:caused by the Film Club trying to make a movie.]] |
46 | * OneLetterName: This would have been literal, had Suzumu not decided calling them by only one letter would sound weird. |
47 | * RashomonStyle: Each arc of the novels and the manga focuses on each character's POV of the demise game and how they tried to handle the situation. |
48 | * StalkerWithACrush:While only D-ne’s crush has ever been explicitly stated in canon, [[spoiler:C-ta has four cameras in A-ya’s room and a microphone in his bag.]] |
49 | ** He’s just doing that because he’s A-ya’s [[{{Yandere}} ‘’one and only best friend.’’]] |
50 | * TrueCompanions: Yes, really. They're ultimately depicted as such in the song ''Shuuen no Shiori''. |
51 | * UnmovingPlaid: In some of the music videos, the main characters' school uniforms' skirts/pants are depicted as such. |
