RULES + EXTRAS BELOW

A blog where a bunch of survivors stick together to escape and find a way to get rid of the corruption. They are family to each other and no one can say otherwise. No plot at the moment, but I will throw in little things here and there when I can.

There's angst and crack as well.

*____________________________*

These are the the descriptions of the survivors- so far. Will be update when necessary.

They have new outfits, I'll fix them someday when I have the time.

Blue [Boyfriend](21), Friday Night Funkin'

The only survivor from the FNF universe. The first person he'd teamed up with is Pibby. He uses a single-edged sword and, though rarely, a gun (Pico's) to fight.

Pibby(12), Learning With Pibby

The only survivor from the LWP universe. She had teamed up with many people before Blue, but none of which has survived. She uses a rapier.

Finn(17), Adventure Time

One of the two survivors of the AT universe. Was once corrupted by coming into contact with the corrupted Princess Bubblegum. Saved by both Pibby and Blue. He uses his double-edged sword to fight.

Jake(?), Adventure Time

One of the two survivors of the AT universe. Was once corrupted by coming into contact with the corrupted Princess Bubblegum. Saved by both Pibby and Blue. He uses a hammer.

Alina(9), [???]

A child who lost both their parents and were left wandering around alone. Found by both Pibby and Blue, they are now travelling together with the survivors. They stick to Blue the most. They use a baseball bat to fight.

Pinkie Pie(?), My Little Pony

The only survivor of from the MLP:FIM Universe. She tagged along with the group when they arrived. Initially, she had Twilight with her, but she was lost to the corruption. She uses her party cannon.

Sayori(18), Doki Doki Literature Club

The only survivor from the DDLC universe. She manages to run and escape from the corruption somehow, and survived on her own until she found Dipper. She uses a spear.

Dipper Pines(12), Gravity Falls

The only survivor from the Gravity Falls Universe. He ran from the corruption with Mabel, but she was caught, leaving him to survive on his own. He world hopped without realising and has survived on his own until he met Sayori. He uses twin shortswords.

~Sunny 'Ref'~

Sunny(14), OMORI

The only survivor from the OMORI Universe. He was in his house when it happened, holding a knife to protect himself, only to have a portal open beside him. He wasn't alone for long as he met Sayori and Dipper very quickly. He uses a knife- (and eventually a bow & arrows)

Omori(12), OMORI

He's here too. Rather than continuing to protect Sunny from the truth, he now spends his time trying his best to be Sunny's support whenever he needs it.

~Satoko & Hibiya Ref~

Satoko Hojo(12), Higurashi

The only survivor from the Higurashi Universe. She barely managed to survive herself, with her friends already captured in a few seconds of the corruption's arrival. She bumps into Hibiya (literally) and stuck with him then. She uses a dagger.

Hibiya Amamiya(12), Kagerou Daze

The only survivor from the Kagerou Daze Universe. He was sucked in by a portal out of nowhere, the last thing he saw was everyone else being overwhelmed by the corruption. He bumps into Satoko (literally) and stuck with her then. He uses twin cutlasses.

~Makoto & Nagito Ref~

Makoto Naegi(19), Danganronpa

One of the two survivors from the Danganronpa Universe. He fell into a portal that randomly appeared beneath him as he was running. He manages to meet Nagito and went with him from there. He uses a double-sided lance.

Nagito Komaeda(20), Danganronpa

One of the two survivors from the Danganronpa Universe. A portal appeared next to him when he noticed the corruption coming from far away. He ran into it on instinct. He manages to meet Makoto and went with him from there. He uses a halberd.

~Tendou Aris Ref~

Tendou Aris(??), Blue Archive

The only survivor from the Blue Archive Universe. She survived by tripping into an open portal, unfortunately dropping her railgun back in her universe. She meets the group quickly. She uses a claymore sword.

“ -- That was a regular summer day. In the deep blue sky, the noisy sound of cicadas reverberated, at around half past noon on the 15th of August. Under the dazzling sunlight, I was talking with [you], my childhood friend. I didn't even know that right after that, a tragic accident would happen. The next time I opened my eyes, the date on the calender was the 14th of August. Sensing that I remembered the awfully noisy sound of cicadas, I went out. And then, a tragic accident happened to [you] again. The story of a summer that was repeated many times. The next time, the moment I pushed [you] and leapt, something had changed there. ”

YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

from later half Otsukimi Recital chapters in Novels Route: (*DISCLAIMER: OLDER FAN TRANSLATION, STILL LIKELY RELEVANT) (*WILL COMPARE TO OFFICIAL VERSION WHEN I CAN) (bolding/italics mine for emphasis/notes!): (Momo’s POV; “Teacher” is “Kenjirou” BUT.....)

Hibiya opened the car door and went down, I quickly followed him.

We turned towards the car, Teacher opened the car window, and lit up his cigarette.

He must had refrained it before we got down from the car.

“Finally some time to relax. I’m not too sure what’s going on but I wish you good luck searching for that person. Well, I will still meet Kisaragi soon at tuition”

“Guehh…… I see. *I will be under your care……….”

“T-thank you. Uhm…. ah, excuse me. I haven’t say my name. I’m Hibiya”

Perhaps because it was funny that Hibiya suddenly introduced himself just when we were about to apart, Teacher cackled, and replied.

“Oh, I’m Tateyama.

(OP’S note: spacing in following line mine for emphasis!)

We shall meet again.

Goodbye”

Teacher closed the car window, waved goodbye, and drove his car off.

“Haa. Although I don’t wanna think about tuition during holidays, I still remember it…… Eh what’s wrong? Hibiya”

“Hmm? Nothing…… feels like I have heard of that name before……..”

“Hmm~ because it’s a rare name, so by the least an acquaintance of yours?”

“b-By the least……..”

Hibiya gave a bitter smile, and turned to look at the park as if he wanted to change his mood.

CONCLUSIONS re: Kagepro Ages issue + Hibi+Hiyo’s Ages

- in 2012 (May) Konoha’s State of the World TV screens Hibiya Amamiya was “11″: (ALONG WITH) Hiyori, who canonically has ALWAYS had the “March” birthday, as soon as she was introduced with a birthday alongside Hibiya. which would place her on the YOUNGER END of their shared school year going by the Japanese school system* * THE JAPANESE SCHOOL SYSTEM * BEGINS IN APRIL (APRIL 1ST-2ND) * AND ENDS IN LATE MARCH. * HIYORI’S BIRTHDAY IS MARCH 3RD, * EARLY MARCH. * I.E. BEFORE THE SCHOOL YEAR FINISHES. order of Japanese school year w/this all in mind: April - Japanese school year begins -> August 14th-15th - main series canon happens -> November 4th - Hibiya’s birthday / he ages to 12 -> New Years - happens, YEAR CHANGES TO THE NEXT YEAR -> February 14th - Momo’s birthday / she ages chronologically to 16 from 15 -> March 3rd - Hiyori’s birthday / she ages (FINALLY) to 12 -> end of March - school year ends. ->

^ THAT IS VERY CLEARLY AN “11″ THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THIS IS SEEN AROUND 5 TIMES IN THE PV ON MULTIPLE SCREENS. * BOTH HIBIYA AND HIYORI GET THIS “11″. * IT IS CONFLICTING FOR HIYORI BECAUSE OF HER MARCH BIRTHDAY. * IT IS CHRONOLOGICALLY CORRECT FOR HIBIYA. - Hibiya says he is studying for Junior high school exams in “Talkers”, which would imply he’s entering Junior high the next year. - the grade before he’d enter Junior high implied is ‘6′th (ages 11~12*) - * real-world based setting. - this is the grade they’re in DURING MAIN CANON (6th). - 7th is the grade they enter POST-MAIN CANON, THE NEXT YEAR. - a Japanese 6th grader is equivalent to a US 1st-year middle schooler. - by the time they’re in 7th they’re 2nd-year middle schoolers. Talkers chapter 3 w/Hibiya and Ene: Hibiya: I-It’s not a misunderstanding! I really am thinking of taking the admission exam of a [Junior high] school from Tokyo and I’m getting ready for it! (later on): Hibiya: Well, about that… I gotta begin studying for the [Junior high] school admission exam (later on): Hibiya: Hn, looks like it… They (Hibiya’s parents) said, “if you want to take the [Junior high] school exam, try solving this mystery”. (later on): Ene: With this, they will allow you to take the exam! Hibiya: Yeah! Talkers chapter 9 later has:

Hibiya: Yeah… The new semester started and I met up with Hiyori at school.

”the entrance exam season is when students take intense and difficult examinations to CONTINUE ON to the higher school of their choice ” ”schools throughout the country will hold their examinations over a short period from late January through late February”* * this would be post-August 15th loops. * by then Hibiya would have ALREADY AGED REGARDLESS (from “11″ to “12″ on the first November 4th that occurs post-August 15th.) - in 2013 (January) Kagerou Daze Visual fanbook he was “(about ? ) 10″. This was WAYYYYYY back in JANUARY 2013, and Hiyori was displayed with THE SAME, ALSO but HIBIYA CANNOT BE 10 IF HIYORI IS. because then that screws up BOTH of their ages, and especially HIYORI’S, ALONG WITH HER GRADE: 2013:

^ BTW KONOHA WAS STILL “?” HERE IN AGE TOO + DISPLAYED AS “HARUKA KOKONOSE”

^ THOSE SURE ARE QUESTION MARKS

^ 2016 “Perfect Guide” REUSES the 2013 profiles. MY SCAN. ”age” is the first line under Hiyori’s picture with the “10″ “?”. So unfortunately, they are NOT up to date, BUT it means their AGES AREN’T IN THESE PROFILES either. NOTE THE QUESTION MARK. @ayara-resara confirmed to me it means/implies “ about ? ” BASICALLY. it would make HIYORI CHRONOLOGICALLY YOUNGER,

IF THEY WERE THE SAME “10″ AGE AT START, NOT HIBIYA. AND WE KNOW FOR A FACT HIYORI IS NOT “ 9 ″. BECAUSE OF THE KONOHA’S STATE OF THE WORLD TV SCREENS IN WHICH BOTH WERE ”11″ - in the Summer 2012 Children Record booklet they had NO AGES SEEN: ONLY STILL THE BIRTHDAYS (CIRCLED, IN RED):

^ DO NOT USE THIS BOOKLET FOR YOUR AGES REFERENCES. THERE WERE NO AGES IN THIS BOOKLET, ONLY BIRTHDAYS. - in - in a daze - novel Hibiya says he’s been living in his “small town” for: - “OVER 10 YEARS” + - “ten-PLUS” years “of life” ^ PUBLISHED MAY 2012 IN JAPAN. ” I’ve been stuck in this tiny village for over 10 years ”. ” And my short, 10+ (TEN-PLUS) years of life will be a lackluster thing that I won’t be able to remember, too. ” - in 2014 (July, MCA fandom era) PASH! article he was back at “11″. (Hiyori was listed in his same profile box in relation to him.)

^ THAT IS VERY MUCH AN “11″ THANK YOU.

- These were also the ages RE-USED in the official MCA script according to Japanese translator Zushilove , who is also Japanese / living in Japan and speaks it fluently. THOUGH SHE DID NOT SPECIFY HIBIYAS, SHE DID CONFIRM PRETTY MUCH EVERYONE ELSE’S WERE THE SAME CONFLICTING ONES DISPLAYED IN PASH 2014. - July PASH! also reconfirmed Kano’s “17″ age. - official merch from ONLY 3 years ago ALSO RECONFIRMED Kano’s “17″. - Fuyuyuu’s post’s timestamp here is May 17, 2015. (2015 !!!) - this would imply Zushilove was, as always (AND AGAIN), CORRECT. - we still have NO IDEA, HOWEVER, what age HIBIYA was displayed with at the 2014 MCA Japan-only event that Zushilove described

“ Same as Kano and Seto, Kido is one grade below Ayano/Shintaro. So for the current time setting,* * August 14-15th she’s [Kido’s] at an age to turn 16~17 between April 1 to next year’s March 31. Kido’s birthday is in January 2. Her [Kido’s] official age is “17″ (this age was written in the script of MCA as well) but her actual age is supposed to be 16. It’s even canon that Kido is younger than Kano (May 10th), who is in the same grade as her and also has the official age written as 17… ” “ Yeah….so from these facts, personally what I believe [*Zushilove’s opinion]

is that all of the character’s ‘official age’ is written as the age that they’re going to turn into until next year’s March 31, in order to differentiate each character’s school grade to show their age gaps.

For an example, if the staffs wrote the ‘actual age’ for Kano as 17 and Kido/Seto as 16, they may have thought that the fans will misinterpret that “Kido/Seto is one grade below Kano”……

...because there is this one thing I heard from one of the MCA staffs considering this complicated age setting but yeah I can’t really share that here…. “

“ Basically, there is this contradicting ‘offcial age’ thing going on for the characters who have their birthday between August 16 and March 31 “

- Zushilove’s commentary, a year or so ago. * HIBIYA’S BIRTHDAY (NOVEMBER) IS BEWTEEN AUGUST 16 AND MARCH 31ST. August 16 -> November 4th -> etc. (as described above) * HIYORI’S BIRTHDAY (MARCH 3RD) IS BEFORE MARCH 31ST AS WELL. - IT’S VERY POSSIBLE THIS IS WHERE HE /AND/ HIYORI COULD HAVE BEEN LISTED WITH “12″ AT START OF SERIES - AND WHY THAT AGE SPREAD AROUND ONLINE FOR SO LONG. - but even if it WASN’T - HIBIYA AGES TO 12 CHRONOLOGICALLY BY NOVEMBER 4TH ANYWAY - sooooo we COULD just recognize he’s 11~12 - this would place HIYORI at 10~11 chronologically OR, - YOU COULD LET HIYORI BE 11~12 TOO , - BECAUSE SHE IS IN THE SAME GRADE AS HIBIYA, - AND ALSO ENTERING JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL THE NEXT YEAR, - SINCE SHE, TOO, IS ALSO DISPLAYED WITH “11″ - ON “ KONOHA’S STATE OF THE WORLD ” TV SCREENS. - THESE TV SCREENS OF WHICH ARE ALSO STILL CLEARLY SEEN IN THE 2016 GUIDEBOOK IN THE PVs IMAGES SECTION.

- AND YES, THE SERIES TAKES PLACE IN JAPAN (FOR THE FINAL TIME)

ALSO THIS IS MOMO AS OF SIDU’S 2015 ARTBOOK TOO SO:

COMPARE TO KANO WHO HAS HIS “17″ IN 2015 HERE:

^ NOTE THE “17″ ABOVE HIS HEAD

(HOW MANY MORE “17″S DO YOU NEED HONESTLY)

BONUS:

^ NON-CANON WANNYANPUU PV.

STILL-CANON LYRICS. “DECADE S ”. MAKE OF IT WHAT YOU WILL

DO NOT MAKE ME BUY ANOTHER BOOK TO COMPARE OH MY GOD

ALSO IF YOU COULD PLEASE

LET HIYORI LIKE GIRLS AGAIN AND LET HIBIYA LIKE BOYS AGAIN AND LET BOTH LIKE GIRLS AND/OR BOYS AGAIN I’D BE VERY HAPPY AFTER ALL OF THIS BUT WELL Y’KNOW

I FORGOT TO ADD BUT JIN CONFIRMED IN “FUTURE EDITION” SHINTARO WOULD BE AROUND JIN’S AGE WHICH IS 28 WHICH WOULD IMPLY AROUND 10 YEARS LATER WHICH WOULD PUT HIBI+HIYO AT AROUND 20 OK THANK YOU ADULT KIDO WAS CONFIRMED FOR AROUND 25 TOO SO YEAH

Kagepro theories the nth: MOMO EDITION + FOCUSING ! HIBIYA?!????

Kagerou Project Theories ~

MOMO (’S DROWNING)?? (EDITION??) (+ AZAMI..... ??!) +

FOCUSING EYES (+ HIBIYA !!! AND/OR ?? HIYORI THEORIES THE NTH)

( * See my archive for too many past Hibiya and etc. theories )

[ * KAGEPRO ROUTES ENDINGS SPOILERS WITHIN ] RELEVANT: - various Hibiya theories - various other theories (focus mainly on character-related theories) - Hibiya Amamiya’s Changing Phonetsraps Keychains subplot - THIS MCA 04 scene vs. Novels route comparisons - THESE THOUGHTS ( READ AFTER FINISHING THIS POST TOO )

( * OFFICIAL ROUTES / ORDER OF THEM ARE IN MY FAQ )

“THE CHILDREN REASON”: (Shintaro’s POV; he’s speaking to Kido about Momo’s drowning + etc.)

( MOMO: orange underlines HIBIYA: cyan blue Hiyori [briefly]: pink Seto [briefly]: green )

[ OFFICIAL ENGLISH TRANSLATION ]:

.....

[ insert a scene where Kido references they don’t remember here ]

^ ( IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT )

[ CONTINUE: ]

“ THE MISSING CHILDREN ” (Novel 4), Shinigami Record II: (* FAN TRANSLATION ) [ * AZAMI’S POV ]

RE: POSSIBLY AROUND WHEN THE SNAKES LEAVE HER:

( Black lines: Azami relevant )

^ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“ THROUGH ” “ FOCUSING ”

“ F O C U S I N G ” [ EYES !!!!!!!!!!! ]

( AND EVEN ) ( RIGHT ) ( A F T E R )

( “ CAPTIVATING ” ) ( !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! )

^ WOW IT’S ALMOST LIKE THEY’RE A SET

THAT OCCUR VERY CLOSE TOGETHER

IN POSSIBLY LEAVING AZAMI -----------------------------

“ The Children Reason ”, OTSUKIMI RECITAL ENDING CHAPTERS:

[ * DISCLAIMER: OLD FAN TRANSLATION BUT ]

FROM HERE:

(MOMO’S POV):

“Hibiya?!”

I ran towards Hibiya, and realized he was all pallid.

“Cheer up kay? We will do our best together…. kay?”

“Perhaps, even I can’t do it….. even….. I don’t even know if Hiyori is still alive…….”

“……..YOU CAN’T BE LIKE THIS!”

That was, a sentence he really shouldn’t say.

( line breaks here mine for EMPHASIS):

If no one believes one is alive, if they don’t search for that person, maybe

that person will really disappear.

This is a thing I believe since young.

“You can’t…… say things like that…. You cannot give up…! Because I…… believe in you…..!”

^ “ if no one BELIEVES ONE ” “ IS ALIVE ”

“ IF THEY DON’T ” “ SEARCH ” “ FOR THAT PERSON ”,

“ MAYBE ” “ THAT PERSON ”

“ WILL REALLY ” “ DISAPPEAR ”

“ THIS IS ”

“ A THING ”

“ I BELIEVE[D] ”

“ SINCE ”

“ YOUNG ”

ABOVE: MOMO DROWNING NEAR THE END OF

Konoha no Sekai Jijou pv

... MEANWHILE, FROM HERE, 2012 FANDOM ERA SCAN:

Momo’s mystery

The only mystery about her that is NOT REVEALED YET is

how she got hold of her powers in the past.

What exactly happened during

the beach incident that happened when she was young.

And also what happened to her father who was also involved in it….

That incident’s one scene was shown a bit in Konoha no Sekai Jijou.

VERY RELEVANT: EARLY MANGA ROUTE 2:

Shinigami Record I: - AYANO BEGINS TELLING HIBIYA ABOUT AZAMI’S PAST

Shinigami Record III:

“ CAPTURING CAPTIVATING EYES ”

“ I USED MY ” “ F O C U S I N G ” “ E Y E S ” “ TO GET HERE ” ,

Shinigami Record IV: - AZAMI FINDS THE “ BRIGHT FOREST ”

Shinigami Record VII:

AYANO TO HIBIYA RE AZAMI’S FINAL ORDER:

“ SWALLOW THEM ” “ AND GRANT THEM ”

“ A LIFE IN EXCHANGE ”

SUMMARY OF CHAPTERS AFTER:

Meanwhile, Ayano, Shintaro, and Hibiya are still in discussion.

Shintaro explains that

Momo suddenly gained the ability to attract the attention of others

when she was in [Junior high] school.

^ FRIENDLY REMINDERS

Because of this power [CAPTURING], [Shintaro]’s sister [MOMO] became unable to live a normal life. (SHINTARO): “I can’t just sit still and do nothing if something bad’s about to happen to her.“ Seeing how much he wants to protect his sister, Ayano agrees to tell him everything. Some time later, they’ve left the restaurant, and Shintaro attempts to look for Momo.

Ayano talks about how the time Momo drowned

was about the time [Ayano] saw the snake of ‘ Capturing Eyes ’

LEAVE the DAZE

in Azami’s memories.

................................................. HIBIYA IS STILL HERE.

HEARING ALL OF THIS.

^ “ F * * K

AYANO ASKED WHEN THE SNAKE ENTERED HIBIYA’S BODY:

“ Ayano asked when the snake entered Hibiya’s body, to which he answered FROM , THE , VERY , START , long before he killed “Concealing Eyes”

AND MET AYANO.

He continued that this body was a “miss”. It was good that the boy who didn’t have any wish began to have a desire to “save the girl”, but it was a little bit immature. Regardless that the snake was a being that eats up “desire”, that wish causes him a sour stomach. ” ...........................................................................

OK SAERU / CLEARING EYES ASIDE

IS ANYONE MAKING THE CONNECTIONS THAT I’M MAKING

AND POSSIBLY ALSO RE:

MOMO’S DROWNING ???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AND WHEN “ CAPTURING ” AND “ FOCUSING ”

LEAVE THE DAZE IN AZAMI’S MEMORIES ???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MEANWHILE IF YOUNG MOMO

WAS DROWNING

AND FELT

SHE COULD NEVER BE FOUND ------------------------------ MOMO’S BODY IS SPAT OUT

OF THE DAZE

“ THE NEXT DAY ” -------------------------

.....................................................................................

DOES “ FOCUSING EYES ”

HAVE ANY CONNECTION TO ANY OF THIS AT ALL

OTHER THAN MAYBE

SAERU

SAW

EVERYTHING

THAT

H I B I Y A WAS TOLD BY “ AYANO ”

IN THIS 2ND MANGA ROUTE

THAT’S BEEN GOING ON SINCE 2013

INCLUDING WITH THE ABOVE CHAPTERS

AND THE ENDING WE NOW KNOW ABOUT ------------------- ...................................................................

(bolding / italics / caps / line breaks / spacing mine for emphasis):

- When designing KagePro characters, firstly,

Sidu would start to decide their colors.

- Since Kagerou Daze’s MAIN COLORS are BLUE and RED,

HIBIYA’S COLOR is BLUE and HIYORI’S is PINK.

Quote

Speaking of which, it seems that there’s already a conception of the Mekakushi-dan as adults in Jin-san’s mind and he’s decided things such as, “This person will be like that” and “Their occupation will be this”. Kido-san will run an orphanage; taking over the will of that orphanage is very much like her. Hibiya-kun will be an archeologist. There are legends about Medusa all over the world, so he’ll be researching that.

Kagerou Project Japan-only event information compliation; 2019

EDIT/ADDITION:

“ Hibiya will be an archeologist, and since the Medusa is said to have her roots abroad, he might do a research on that. ” - Jin

Kagerou Project ~ Times / Dates References + Comparisons Kagerou Daze I (Novels Route) [ Hibiya Amamiya’s point of view ] (bolding mine for emphasis/reference notes!): The sun set, it was late.

Although it’s cool at evenings, the heat remaining from the day still twines in the air and my skin could feel the breath of the upcoming summer.

“What shall I do this summer? Last year I spent the whole time helping in the field, I guess this year will be the same again, huh…..”

I’ve been stuck in this tiny village for over ten years. My impression of summer was just hot weather and memories of working in the paddy field full of mud.

“…..Travelling….. That’s not possible at all. I’m lacking money. However, I’m sure……”

I’m sure that Asahina Hiyori will make a trip to somewhere and enjoy a perfect summer. I’m just guessing, but I’m pretty sure she will.

No matter the world or standpoint we are in, everything is different between me and her, so I guess the scenery she sees every day is something a normal boy couldn’t imagine at all.

I understand that, that’s why I have expectations, and that’s why I’m so in love with her.

Being showered by the sunset, I was having those thoughts while looking at the broad farmlands being dyed orange, looking at my tiny house that was a stone’s throw away from the village. Right at the end of the spacious open land, thin smoke was coming out from the tiny chimney.

When was the last time I went out of this village? I couldn’t remember, maybe because it was already that long ago.

And my short, 10+ [“over ten”] years of life will be a lackluster thing that I won’t be able to remember, too.

When will be the next time I get out of this village?

I started to imagine a future scene where Hiyori and I are in a monorail, thinking about our destination, laughing together.

^ “Days”, Mekakucity Actors ending theme A warning came from somewhere around my chest. “IMPOSSIBLE”, I subconsciously understood the message.

“So that’s what I’m saying, should I really give up that easily……”

Shallowly sighed, I speeded up my pace to finish the journey back home.

Kagepro: Timeframe Mentions

Kagerou Project References ->

Specific / Important Timeframe Mentions

Routes reminder:

Music [Songs/Videos] (+extra) -> Manga [+Manga Route 2] -> Novels ->? MCA?

MCA: “closest to the latter” - Jin

PLEASE NOTE: EVENTS MAY DIFFER BETWEEN EVERY ROUTE.

(Please Note: This is an OLD post gathering notes on the various canon timelines and including some of my own theories. For the most part, the information hasn’t changed too much upon me making this post, but I’ve included a ‘read more’ for easier browsing.)

Original commentary under the ‘read more’!

“ 2 years ago ”

Ayano [as Japanese 10th grader] initially ‘dies’ / enters the Daze.

Does not happen in Manga Route 2

Instead, the Mekakushi Trio kick her out due to disagreeing with her later revealed motives.

Has not yet had her birthday (Nov 22nd) due to dying August 15th. Chronologically would be 15 years old at death.

Shintaro is in the same school year as her, however, he’s already had his birthday [April 30; Japanese school year begins April 1st] so he would be the older one. He’s still in the same school year as her, which contains the ages of 15~16.

(Ayano would chronologically be closer to 15 when she initially ‘dies’; Shintaro already 16. They’re still close in age.)

Haruka [11th grade] initially ‘dies’.

Konoha is ‘born’ as a separate being. has an ‘immortal body’

Haruka remains trapped in the Daze.

Has not yet had his birthday (December 24) due to dying August 15th. Chronologically between 16 and 17 years old, but still has some 4-5 months left until his birthday, compared to Ayano and Hibiya (both November / earlier).

Konoha: appears created within the Daze.

Likely August 15th.

Unknown if he “chooses” a birthday like Mary does.

As of most major Routes / timelines, does not appear to reach December 24th, much less October.

Takane [11th grade; same as Haruka] initially ‘dies’.

Becomes Ene. ‘immortal spirit’

same personality / memories (for the most part)

Momo is in Junior high school [as an 8th grader.]

Momo met Haruka, Takane, and Ayano [Novels Route] while she’s still a Junior high schooler. [Over the Dimension; Novel 6]

Kano, Kido, and Seto are a grade below Ayano & Shintaro, all three being in the 9th grade

Ayano and Shintaro were in 10th.

Haruka and Takane were in 11th.

“second year of high school”

Kano, Kido, and Seto were in 9th.

all one grade above Momo.

Momo was in 8th. [Junior High school] (bonus):

“ When I got to eighth grade, I didn’t enjoy being in the club anymore, so I decided to quit and spent my time after school aimlessly shopping around town. It was around that time that the number of agencies who scouted me started increasing. I refused them at first, but when the agency that I’m currently working under contacted me, my mom’s work wasn’t going well at the time, so I took up the offer to help a little with the living expenses. ” [Kisaragi Attention; Novels Route - Momo]

Sometime in the future of “ 2 years ago ”, but before present day

Manga Route 2 particularly / notably; various other Routes as well: Ene enters Shintaro’s computer.

Momo is still in Junior high school.

Ene befriends Shintaro and later, Momo. [Manga Route 2]

Ene picks out Momo’s “aun” phrasing pink hoodie. [Manga Route 2]

The Mekakushi Trio “leave the Tateyama household”

This occurs in pretty much every major Route.

However, it is much more notable during Manga Route 2.

Spring of the present year: Momo enters high school.

Going chronologically, it’s only possible for Momo to be 15 at the start of the series. [conflicting age] “ ——I had just enrolled at this school this spring.” - Momo, Kisaragi Attention chapter [Novels Route]

This is when Momo would have her 15th birthday

February 14th - Momo’s birthday.

“ the year before last year ” - Momo’s high school is remodeled. “ The year before last year, the four-story school was rebuilt and designed in a western style; a uselessly fashionable building.” - Momo, Kisaragi Attention chapter [Novels Route] (i.e. Momo is clarifying she enrolled in the spring, while “the year before last year”, the same school was remodeled before she entered it.)

(about) “ 5 years ago ”

Momo (primary schooler) drowns at the beach, her and Shintaro’s father being the price for her resurrection / initially ‘dies’. “ Strangely enough, no matter what I do, I attract the “eyes” of people around me. ” “ In my later years of elementary school, something I drew just happened to catch the attention of a well-known author. It became the cover of one of their novels, and on top of that, the novel became a huge hit. ” [^ both quotes, Momo, Kisaragi Attention (Novels Route) ]

Around this time, Momo’s snake also leaves Azami (confirmed by Azami herself; later theorized by Shintaro + Ayano while Hibiya is also present, after Hibiya’s seen Azami’s memories.) Shintaro is aware of what’s happening to Momo during elementary. [^ confirmed via Manga Route 2]

“ 10 years ago ”

The Dan’s estimate of when all of these events began [Novels] as well as for how long the timelines have been repeating.

Take note: the Dan might be wrong / might not have all info.

A “monster” speaks to Kano [Yobanashi Deceive pv] [Music Route]

in Novels Route, this “monster” is Clearing Eyes.

Kano confirms later on he won’t listen to Saeru anymore. [^ Novels Route]

Kano also confirms Kenjirou maybe doesn’t remember anything that happens to him while possessed. (as far as he knows) [^ Novels Route]

“ from the very start ”

Manga Route 2: Saeru [Clearing Eyes] possesses Hibiya.

Ayano asked when the snake entered Hibiya’s body

“[ from the very start ].”

“long before” he killed Kido and before Hibiya met Ayano.

“ some hundreds of times ” [ “some hundreds” ]

The speaker of “Imaginary Reload” (presumed Mary) mentions this has repeated some “hundreds of times” now.

“ until October 7, 2200 ″

Sign seen during MCA Route [only].

“Construction of a pedestrian bridge is currently taking place until October 7, 2200″.

Obon / Bon Festival

Mentioned by Kenjirou to Momo in Novels [Kisaragi Attention].

The festival of Obon lasts for three days; however its starting date varies within different regions of Japan. When the lunar calendar was changed to the Gregorian calendar at the beginning of the Meiji era, the localities in Japan reacted differently and this resulted in three different times of Obon. "Shichigatsu Bon" ("Bon in July") is based on the solar calendar and is celebrated around 15 July in eastern Japan (Kantō region such as Tokyo, Yokohama and the Tōhoku region), coinciding with Chūgen. "Hachigatsu Bon" (Bon in August) is based on the lunar calendar, is celebrated around the 15th of August and is the most commonly celebrated time. "Kyū Bon" (Old Bon) is celebrated on the 15th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and so differs each year. "Kyū Bon" is celebrated in areas like the northern part of the Kantō region, Chūgoku region, Shikoku, and the Okinawa Prefecture. These three days are not listed as public holidays but it is customary that people are given leave.

Mentioned by Hiyori Asahina in Novels Route [Kagerou Daze I]: "Heh, the truth is, my brother-in-law [Kenjirou] is her [Momo]'s school teacher. An idol as a student, like, seriously! A moment ago he called me and said, 'I'll help you get her signature, why don't you come here and have fun during the Obon?' Sooo, I was planning to go there as a trip, but my parents went mad, saying 'you don't even bother to study well, but you're still playing tricks like this~', things like that."

Obon -> (through to?) “ next week ” (mentioned above):

“Took a lot out of you, huh. Anyway, there’s going to be a [school test] retake next week so…… Try as hard as you can.” - Kenjirou to Momo, Kisaragi Attention Chapter (cont. below):

Kenjirou: “Well, take it easy. I’m sure that you’re still not used to this school yet, and don’t you have a concert next week?” 　　 Momo: “Ah……! Yes…… I do……” 　　 ( ..... ) 　　 Kenjirou: “Well, don’t push yourself too hard…… Anyway, you should get going now. Didn’t you say you had a filming for a drama today or something?” 　　Momo: “Yes… Ah, wait! Class is going to start! I still have time!” 　　 Kenjirou: “It’s written here in the schedule for supplementary lessons, isn’t it? Since it’s Obon, 10th graders only go to first period today. You have the next three days off. Why don’t look at the schedule for once…” 　　Momo: “Ehhh?! Ah, you’re right……” 　　 Looking at the schedule he took out, there really was only one lesson today. 　　 Don’t tell me he found out that I’ve attending my supplementary classes without looking at the schedule like this…… 　　Momo: “Err…… Well, I’ll see you in three days!” 　　 Kenjirou: “Yeah. It would be bad if you didn’t take a break on Obon. Well, I’m going home, so be careful on your way back.” 　　 Momo: “I’ll be fine! I’ll take my leave for today!”

‘ Otsukimi ’ / Tsukimi (Moon Viewing)

[see: Otsukimi Recital ; mention of “viewing the moon” in “My Funny Weekend” (Mekakucity Reload)]

Tsukimi (月見) or Otsukimi (お月見), literally moon-viewing, also known as Jugoya (十五夜), are Japanese festivals honoring the autumn moon, a variant of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The celebration of the full moon typically takes place on the 15th day of the eighth month of the traditional Japanese calendar; the waxing moon is celebrated on the 13th day of the ninth month. These days normally fall in September and October of the modern solar calendar. The tradition dates to the Heian era, and is now so popular in Japan that some people repeat the activities for several evenings following the appearance of the full moon during the eighth lunisolar month. Date: September or October

“ decades ”

“ This cycle has repeated for decades. I’d realized that a long time ago. ” - Hibiya Amamiya, “Kagerou Daze” songs’ lyrics [Music Route]

“ over ten years ”

“I’ve been stuck in this tiny village for over 10 years.” - Hibiya Amamiya, Kagerou Daze I [The Children Reason] [^ Novels Route] [Note: Hibiya is given an official age of 12 in MCA.] [Hibiya would age to 13 by end of MCA (before everyone else).] [Hiyori was given the exact same age, despite being about 4 months apart from Hibiya. Hiyori’s age is more likely to be conflicting due to her birthday being March, placing her on the younger end of a Japanese school year.] [It is unknown if Jin did this for some intentional reason, but their ages, unlike Momo’s, don’t conflict nearly as much with the rest of the casts’. Again, may be for intentional reason.]

"and my short, 10+ years of life will be a lackluster thing that I won't be able to remember, too." - Hibiya Amamiya, Kagerou Daze I [The Children Reason] [^ Novels Route]

August 18th -> “three days have passed” [since then] [Manga Route 2]

“ The scene changed to Kano in front of the TV, hearing news about the incident. Apparently, three days have passed since then. ”

Extended info from “Kisaragi Attention” chapter and etc. continued! [ *this post may be updated as needed ] [ *bolded and italics in this post are my emphasis]

　 “I’ve got time to spare, huh…… Hm?” 　　 When I looked at my watch, it still showed as 8:15 A.M. I was taken aback for a second, but then I remembered that it had stopped this morning. It was my favorite watch that Mom bought for me last year as a birthday present. Its life was too short. I don’t remember handling it too roughly as to quicken its death, so it’s probably just a dead battery. When I get home, I’ll have my stupid brother look at it. 　　 I took out my touch screen phone that had a gaudy pink case. Even though I had a cell phone, I only really used it for work-related things. 　　 If I used it to talk about a favorite T.V. show or about love with a close friend every night, I’d probably be a professional with this device. But when it comes to T.V. shows, I only really watch historical dramas, and I don’t even have a friend to talk to about that, let alone love…… 　　 Although I could more or less grasp the reason for that, it wasn’t really a bad thing. It’s just that each time my phone is in my hand, I find myself hit with an unexplainable feeling of emptiness. That’s why I didn’t like this device. 　　 “9:30, huh…… The filming is at 2, so I have to be home by 1……” 　　 I tapped the screen of my phone and opened my planner, and the tumultuous business schedule was displayed. Under August 14 was the filming for the drama at 2, a live performance on a radio talk show at 6, and then rehearsal for a concert, all closely written together. 　　 Today, my manager is supposed to come pick me up at my house at 1 o’clock. 　　 Even though I’ve gotten used to it, my extremely packed schedule recently made me really depressed. The latest concert had gotten everyone talking about me again, and the subsequent deluge of job offers was making a huge change in my lifestyle. It looks like next week’s concert that’s supposed to commemorate my single which released today is going to be a one-man show, despite it being so soon after my CD’s release.

　　 While I am happy about it, I’ve got nothing but bad memories about the song. 　　 The main reason is that on the day of the recording, my manager got extremely mad at me because I had gotten a bad cold and couldn’t help but sing in a nasally voice. But the producer loved it and said that it “very well represented the dilemma an adolescent girl would go through facing an unrequited love,” and ended up being on the CD. 　　 At the time, I didn’t feel like it actually happened due to my fever, but sometime later on, my nasally song started to drift into the town, and my meal sizes got halved. For the time being, things were fine since it was still summer break* [*of the previous year], but as I thought about how in the world I would face the people at school next semester, I grew even more depressed. 　　 I felt the energy leave my body with a sigh. The suffocating heat didn’t help, either. 　　 I had been breaking in and out of a busy sweat, but I could slowly feel my forehead starting to sweat again. 　　 “I guess I should go home……” 　　 There was no point in staying here. I put my phone away in my pocket and stood up from my seat. 　　 I felt a slight cooling sensation as I freed my leg that stuck to the chair and tried to look far off into the distance. On the other side of the school you could hear various shouts and cheering echoing on the grounds. 　　 Those voices, which could probably be called “youth,” felt somehow distant from me, and for some reason, made me feel like I was being rushed. 　　 As I began to walk and sighed for the umpteenth time, I found a flyer placed on the table that the schoolgirls were sitting earlier. 　　 It looked like a flyer that came from a new knick-knack shop in front of a train station with characters cluttered together in colorful, round lettering. 　　 The giant “August 13th and 14th” seemed to be jumping out from the paper, which meant that the event was yesterday and today* [*August 14th]. 　　 After looking around carefully, I picked up the flyer. 　　 And at that moment, I couldn’t believe my own eyes.

　　 “……!!!”

　　 In all honesty, I had no interest in a knick-knack shop like this, but this one thing at the very, very bottom, which was probably only there to fill up space on the flyer, was an unbelievably cute charm listed as a “Benisake-chan Strap.” 　　 Since the picture was rather small, I could only get the gist of what it looked like, but just by the silhouette of the legs that were clearly in a place where legs shouldn’t be, I could tell that it held exceptional talent. 　　 I swallowed the drool that was pooling in my mouth, and anxiously checked my surroundings again. 　　 If you looked at the flyer, you could clearly see “Limited time offer!” written, although it wasn’t very clear what the offer was for.

　　 I stood there for a second and stuffed the flyer in my bag.

　　 With my hand on my hip, I drank what was left in my bottle, threw it in the trash can, and quickly left the school. ——

Japanese school system chart, again, for your reference.

Note anyone born between January 1 - April 1 are on the younger end of their years’ class. Kido - January 02nd Momo - February 14th Hiyori - March 3rd Seto - March 28th Shintaro - April 30th Kano - May 10th [series begins: August 14 - 15, exact day varies between different Routes] besides them: Mary - July 21 [”age” 17 at present day chosen by her] Kenjirou - September 11th Hibiya - November 4th Ayano - November 22nd *did not reach her birthday Haruka - December 24th. *did not reach his birthday Takane / Ene - unknown; same grade as Haruka [*dies in her 2nd year of high school - 11th grade, as seen below] [*Takane may not have reached her birthday as well.]

present day: - Shintaro is 18 on August 14-15. - Shintaro’s birthday is April 30th, making him closer to 18. - post-series, Ayano would age to 18, following Hibiya aging first. Everyone born December of present day through to April 30th of next year would not age until after Ayano.

sometime between ““timeframe”” of “2 years ago” [Ayano’s, Takane’s, and Haruka’s deaths] -> present (timeframe wise, not Routes wise!): re: Takane dying in her second year of high school [“2 years ago”]: [*this also includes Haruka initially dying during the exact same grade.] “ When she was in her second year of high school, she lost her life when someone administered her with a drug, entering the Kagerou Daze. She is then possessed by the snake with the “Eye Opening” power, gaining an immortal spirit. ” - “Ene’s ” Introduction (2013) (Kagerou Daze Booklet; from Mekakucity Records album release) This was all also confirmed via novel 2. “ In his second year of high school, he suffers a sudden stroke and loses his life, entering into the Kagerou Daze. He is possessed by the snake of the "Awakening Eyes" ability, acquiring the ability to remake his body into one that he finds to be his "ideal." However, this put a large strain on his mind, causing [Konoha]* to lose part of his memory. ” - Haruka’s Introduction (2013) (Kagerou Daze Booklet; from Mekakucity Records album release) * confirmed / clarified since then that Konoha is moving his body as if on auto-pilot, while Haruka watches from the Daze. Haruka is not able to see what happens to Hibiya & Hiyori / “the outside world” after Konoha is born. Takane in MCA even comments Konoha is like a completely different person. Also, in Novels Route: - when Haruka is 10 years old, Haruka’s father tells him he has “about six years left to live”. - confirmed via Novel 2 re: Momo’s drowning, about “5 years ago”: “ When she was in elementary school (lower grades), she visited the beach with her father where she got caught by the waves and drowned to death. She comes into contact with the Kagerou Daze and is possessed by the snake with the "Eye Captivating" ability, thus acquiring the power to draw an abnormal amount of attention to her personality, body, and senses. ” - Momo’s Introduction (2013) (Kagerou Daze Booklet; from Mekakucity Records album release) re: Hibiya & Hiyori ..... After being told that she wants to go to summer school to prepare for the middle school entrance exams, he is half-forced into staying for a summer in the city by Hiyori, who he has (unrequited) feelings for. They visit Hiyori's sister Ayaka's home, but because Hiyori falls for a boy they meet there, Konoha, he's hit by intense feelings of jealousy. In the middle of it he gets involved in a traffic accident while shopping with Hiyori and comes into contact with the Kagerou Daze. He is possessed by the snake of the "Eye Focusing"* abilities, and acquires the power to perceive objects and details that are far away from an aerial (bird's eye) view. - Hibiya's Introductions (2013) (Kagerou Daze Booklet; from Mekakucity Records album release) * Obviously (as you can see from this post), this happens very differently in Manga Route 2 and may also be different in future Routes. Of particular note is that as early as of 2013 planning for the series, HIYORI wanted to prepare for the middle school entrance exams. [MCA Route: Hibiya makes up the excuse to his parents of taking special classes for the summer.] + sometime between ““timeframe”” of “2 years ago” [Ayano’s, Takane’s, and Haruka’s deaths] -> present (timeframe wise, not Routes wise!): re: SHINTARO’S INITIAL DEATH [MUSIC ROUTE SPECIFIC:]

re: Momo’s conflicting age: “ She seems about my age. Maybe a year or two older, at most ” - Momo about Kido [Kisaragi Attention; Novels Route] [Reminder: Chronologically, Momo can only be 15, despite the “script” “error”. Kido can only be 16. “maybe” “a year or two older”] “ The “overly-cheerful” person sitting beside her waved at me with a grin on his face. Although he had a mature air about him, once I looked closer, I noticed that he also seemed pretty close to my age. ” - Momo about Kano [Kisaragi Attention; Novels Route] (right around after the part referencing Kido) [ Reminder: ]

re: all other conflicting ages:

- KANO’S AGE IS CORRECTED TO “17″ IN SIDU’S 2015 ARTBOOK - while Kido’s remained the conflicting “17″ l-lol (she’s 16) - Momo’s “16″ was not seemingly shown in this guidebook, despite the “script”’s previous setting conflicts. - This guidebook is official, canonical information as of 2015. - Please note Kisaragi Attention chapter + MCA were circa 2014 and before. Basically, if Momo is 15, Kido is 16. <---- works for near everyone ! !!! If Momo is 16, Kido can only be 17. If Kido (Jan 02) is 17, Kano (May 10) can only be 18. We know Kano is not 18 because Shintaro is 18, Ayano 17 chronologically. We know Momo’s grades otherwise fit her age range despite the conflicting script re: exact “age” Therefore, one must assume either Momo’s or Kido’s are wrong. Kido’s being wrong does not work with Kano’s, etc.’s being corrected. [ Thanks Jin ] [ please see this tag for any other mentions of ages ]

re: Aug 14th -> Aug 15th Music Route: “ On August 15th, 12:30 in the afternoon, The weather was incredibly nice And amidst the sickening rays of the dazzling sun I spoke with you, for I had nothing else to do ” “ I woke up upon my bed to the sound of a ticking clock What time is it now? On August 14th, sometime past 12 in the morning I recalled the sound of an awfully annoying cricket But, y’know, it’s a little strange. Yesterday, in a dream, I saw us walking in this same exact park ” “ Suddenly, I pushed you aside and jumped into the street; At that moment, the truck slammed into me " “If that praiseful heat haze laughed, “Serves you right!” again Then this would be what you’d call a normal summer day. But all of that ended today. On August 14th, a girl awoke upon her bed And she said, "I failed this time, too..." as she cradled a single cat. ” - ^ Kagerou Daze lyrics [Music Route], Hibiya’s POV
