It Would Seem People Disagree With My Theory That Haku Is The Traitor.

Tokyo debunker City of Omens (spoilers again ofc)

First of all,

"not an Otome game" bitch u ain't fooling ANYONE

HYDE TRIED TO FUCKING KILL ROMEO??? IS THAT WHY THERE WASNT A BUS WAITING, CUZ HE WASNT EXPECTED TO MAKE IT BACK IN THE FIRST PLACE???

Once again, not a fucking otome.

Did they know what was going to happen? Hodge and Podge, did they give her that knowing that if they didn't she may die?

So. Elias, Gen, Mio, and now Shion. Those are the names we have, one of which is the Janitor. Speaking of:

Man I really hope Elias is just, like, an ex-student pretending to be a staff member or smth cuz if he isn't then the subtle flirting ("dear heart" and such) is just really fuckin creepy TvT If he is around the same age as the students, yay, cool character fun mystery, if he isn't, >:T tf is this guy's problem

Also his dumdum is gone. Not sure what that means but the dumdum is gone.

ONE LAST THING.

I was right. I was so incredibly right, "how do they know about that, it was only me and him in the room" Abt the warding card, then a cat walks in, I WAS SO RIGHT ABOUT THE CATS SPYING ON THEM (at least that's my interpretation of the scene) I WAS SO INCREDIBLY RIGHT

Am I the only one who noticed the distinct lack of bionic arm in the gameplay parts with Caleb?

The workout thing specifically.

The way I see it, there's two possibilities.

Possibility one is that he never actually had a bionic arm. It was just a nod to the fans who said he would, and it truly was no more than a nightmare.

Possibility two, and honestly I'm not sure if I like this one more or less; is that the dates and quality time and such take place *before* the story. That during the story, he's so different and distant and serious that there's genuinely no way that him and MC could work anymore. It's a tragedy.

He's so different now, has such a different personality and such different priorities that MC cannot even picture him ever going back to the kind and caring person she once knew so well.

That the reason she seems so distressed during the teaser is because she genuinely doesn't know this person anymore. He's different and she knows it, and he's such an uncanny replica of her old friend that being near him just feels uncomfortable.

Or, y'know, it was just a nightmare he had. Who knows.

Tokyo Debunker EP. 8

THEY LOOK DAPPER AS HELL ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?

Very reasonable reaction. Very fair to be scared at the idea of staying overnight with 2 mafioso fuckers and a lawyer- sorry, "paralegal". One of them has actively shot at people and eaten raw bird off the ground, one of them kidnaps people into his basement and has probably made at least one snuff film, and the other is a lawyer. A lawyer WILLING TO COVER FOR THEIR CRIMES.

I don't like you.

Tokyo debunker spoilers for episode 7!

Wow, every chapter is like a freight train I swear-

SO! FIRSTLY;

So, the Kudan either means MC is the tragedy, or MC will stop the tragedy. Likely stop, as it says Champion SINGULAR, but this is... It's clearly pointing towards IS. And by pointing to, I mean explicitly stating it. But this game has also explicitly stated several things that turned out to be lies, so still.

Sorry, I love this shot, cuz u have an actual member of the staff walking around giving a tour, being trailed by a curious girl, a salty-as-hell teenage boy in a lab coat with toothpaste colored hair, and Frankensteins apathetic monster who looks like a serial killer from a horror movie ten minutes before they decide to go serial killer.

First of all, missing injection needles??? That clearly has very much to do with us. Like that's absolutely a concern, considering undocumented injection is kinda the name of the game here.

Secondly, can't wait to break into a hospital after hours to steal shit. Truly a great idea. That won't get us in trouble at all.

Tokyo debunker spoilers up to EP. 5 ish (far as I am right now)

So! That traitor Taiga was talking about. I have some theories. Of course, it's only been a chapter since I heard about the traitor, so it's probably all horribly wrong, but they are theories.

I'm bad at mapping out my thoughts, so let's start with who I think WOULD be the traitor, then narrow down who COULD be the traitor.

Actually, first I wanna ask what the hell traitor means *exactly.* (How to do italics on Tumblr still eludes me)

I'm going purely off memory here, though I did the chapter maybe the day before yesterday so it should be fresh on my mind, but I don't believe Taiga specified literally anything about what he means when he says Traitor. Whether he means a traitor to the school, the ghouls, or all of humankind, we don't know. (Or at the very least I don't right now.)

There's only two things that seem clear to me. (Besides them being a Ghoul.) One is that, whatever they're a traitor to, it's quite significant. Taiga seems entirely unbothered about burning down everything he's worked for after all, as if he thinks it's going to happen anyway.

Two is that, and take this with a grain of salt because it might just be conjecture, MC already knew the traitor by the time she had that "conversation" with Taiga. Though this is taken entirely from his phrasing of "keep letting him fool you".

So who *would* be the traitor? Out of everyone in the game I've met so far, not many of them come to mind. Well, that might be a lie.

In Frostheim I can only think of Thoma. (I'm like 80% sure that was his name.) Kaito and Luca seem too good natured, despite Kaito's cowardice and Luca's eagerness. Jin doesn't seem concerned enough with... Well, anything, to be a traitor. He gave away a yacht, for Christ's sake. What kind of Traitor does that for someone they met like a month ago??

Thoma on the other hand seems to fit the bill almost entirely. He's calculated, doesn't share his thoughts much, has a connection with someone high up, seems loyal enough, fits the bill almost entirely. Hell, he even has late-night rendezvous with someone (a convicted murderer no less) from an "opposing" dorm. The only real problem seems to be that his schedule is filled.

That, and the fact that I have yet to see any real reason or reasoning for him being the traitor. Circumstantial "evidence" doesn't exactly make a completely sound accusation, after all. Traitors seem like that because they're advisors, not the other way around. Cause and effect, right?

What about Vagastrom? The only one I can't see as a possibility is Sho, I mean what kind of Traitor goes back on his friends scheme to help someone he barely knows get a lesser reprimand?

Alan is already suspicious, as much as I love his character. I mean he literally killed a guy, (who is somehow still very much alive,) and is, again, having nightly rendezvous with someone from an enemy dorm. AND HIS DORM RUNS A FIGHT CLUB, I mean c'mon dude. Besides that, however, (and his clear bloodlust,) his, yk, general disposition, seems to suggest otherwise. Not sure about him.

Leo, however? Oh he would absolutely be the traitor. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm fairly certain he spread the Frostheim rumours, though it's been a few days since I read that episode. Plus the spying/eavesdropping, antagonizing Alan, hearing that Vice Captain would need to be nice to MC and immediately trying to rob her of all credibility, that scheme in general, antagonizing Subaru, and most of all, suggesting that Alan let Takeru kill the Honor Student just cuz.

Or I have a theory he might be Sho's demon, but that has very little support and is kinda a reach.

Problem is with Leo being the traitor; he's too obvious about it??? He's bitchy even to his friend, he seems to regularly tell MC to come to Vagastrom with no explanation for the express reason of eavesdropping on his Captain, he antagonizes people left and right, (Alan and Subaru,) and outright suggests complacency in murder? The intent purpose of a traitor is to be trustworthy. Leo might just be your run-of-the-mill jackass. Ashamed to share a birthday with him. (Also he's not a fucking Gemini, he's a Taurus, I would know I LOOKED AT THE CONSTELLATIONS-)

Ahem. Anyway, what about Jabberwock?

Ren is a first year who, honestly, doesn't seem to give enough of a damn about the school to be a traitor in any right. He's also clearly not cold enough to be a traitor, he all saw him with Calamari. That boy's just tired.

Towa... Not entirely sure what his deal is yet, but like. "What are you doing, Dandelion?" "Hm... I'll go ask Haru if it's okay." "Do you need help, Dandelion?" "Okay, I'll save you." "Dandelion. What should I do next?" "What do you need, Dandelion? Tell me." "I'm strong enough. Why won't you ask me to do it?"

He's like Floyd if Floyd didn't resort to violence, was actually a good person, and was far more mellow. He's like a lanky, flower eating puppy with Haru as his favorite person. He's literally a sheep. I mean, look at his eyes. Fluffy, calm sheep. Either I'm incredibly naive and easily fooled, or he's not the traitor type. Knowing me, could be either.

And Haru? Haru is too busy. Like all the time. Stressed, well-dressed, and under duress. (Well-dressed because Peekaboo is practically an accessory.) He is worrying far too much about Jabberwock to worry about schemes.

Then there's Sinostra. Ritsu, is again, far too openly self involved to be hiding much of anything, and Taiga's attitude makes it seem like this Traitor has been at the school for a bit by now. Ritsu is a first year.

Romeo? Firstly, he already has shady shit going on. The explosive powder? The secret room, the kidnappings, the debt collecting, his whole thing is debauchery. A traitor would at least be subtle with it.

I sincerely doubt Taiga would admit to being a traitor. I mean it's Taiga, so who knows, but you get what I'm saying.

Hotarubi would be next. I'm only halfway through the episode, so forgive me if I interpret things as suspicious that get explained later, but I feel like the only one I can openly say is free of suspicion is Zenji. He has enough going on, and Taiga would have to know he exists to be able to say he's a traitor.

Haku, I'm gonna be honest, is extremely suspicious. Sure, it might've just been explained why, the existence of Zenji I mean, but his general disposition is just off-putting to me. He's also the first person MC met in the story, (if you ignore Taiga having tried to throw us off a bus) so it makes sense Taiga would say "keep deceiving you".

It would also feel like a good parallel NGL; to have the story start with a hostile character and a kind, guiding character, only to end the main plot by having the "aggressive" one be the only one who had caught on to the traitorous nature of the "merciful" character the MC had trusted so.

Then there would be Subaru. I can't say much about him decisively since, well, I'm not done with the Hotarubi episode yet, but he seems almost unwaveringly secretive. He lied about why Lyca is locked up, (at least from what I gathered from that interaction,) he sympathizes with the anomalies, (not a crazy position on the issue, but suspicious nonetheless when surrounded with people who see no problem with ripping them to shreds,) and overall seems almost too trusting... And trustworthy, honestly. He also noticed Leo quite quickly and seemed very quick to come to the (reasonable and true) conclusion that Leo would start some shit, which is weirdly observant tbh.

Okay, so that was one long paragraph, but there is one more house I've met so far, in the week that I've been endlessly playing this game. Mortkranken!

As this would've been the house me and my friend would've been in if we hadn't both placed Hotarubi in the quiz, I may be a bit biased when I say I doubt the traitorous ghoul is in Mortkranken, but nonetheless.

First of all, Yuri's god complex, while likely a common trait with renegades and treasonists, (I googled synonyms bc that same word over and over felt too monotonous, r u proud of me) doesn't feel like enough evidence of ill intent, especially not within a doctor. His whole job is kinda helping people stay alive.

Jiro(?) doesn't seem too reasonable of a suspect either tbh. Sure, they said there's rumours he woke up in a lab one day or WTV, but he also seems to have his own shit going on with illness or smth, and honestly he seems more like the type to go with the flow until he finally gets out of school than the type to pay attention to "the clash" or interdorm/schoolwide drama. (Also I still feel bad for us having blown up his prototype but yk. Prolly better than snorting it, so I'd call that a win.)

Um. Anyway those are my opinions. This took like two hours to write and it's midnight RN so sorry if it gets incomprehensible towards the end (or in general) but I am tired. As usual, this is just the app I use to scream into the void about my opinions when Notes App isn't doing it for me.

Tldr; possible suspects are Thoma, Alan, (?) and either living Hotarubi ghouls. With that said tho it's definitely Haku.

I'm so tired.

TKDB (TDBK? TDB? TDK? TBK? Wtv) crack theory bcuz why not

Reincarnation. Why? I think it would be really funny. And there's a couple lines throughout the game that can be vaguely interpreted that way.

“Being with you brings up old, old memories… Perhaps it’s because you remind me a little of her.” - Ed

"I know I’m being selfish—but sometimes, I wish you’d just forget about me…” - Haku (just thought it would be funny if it was like, 'oh MC trusts him so much bc some part of her brain still remembers him')

Kyklos means cycle in ancient Greek. Apparently.

Yeah no that's it really lmao I just think it'd be funny

U think Kyklos could be a demon that was going to make a deal with MC? Probably not, obv, but like why single her out. Leo DOES say the ghouls r hand-picked by demons.

Full disclosure, I know this is all bullshit, none of this is at all solid ground to stand on, I just think it'd be funny

Spoilers for chapterrrr 7? Of Tokyo Debunker

Hm. Alright. Gimme a second I just watched an episode of White Collar my brains going kinda slow-

Jiro really is one hell of a character

And one hell of an amnesiac. Wdym he doesn't remember???

So, so far, we have 2 students with O negative blood, given an undocumented injection at Darkwick General, who proceeded to kill themselves, get back up, and kill themselves again.

(I should also mention that he hasn't actually opened the report Leo handed us yet, and I am very much anticipating MC getting yelled at when he does.)

Because Darkwick sucks. Hell, seeing as Luca is a ghoul, I'm pretty sure even the method of getting ghoulified was a lie. And Professor Nicholas absolutely WOULD do something like that. Whether to test the exact limits of his anomalous medicine or something entirely different- look, her first mistake was assuming any member of the Darkwick staff was at all morally sound.

And that was just the first 2 chapters! I got, like, 8 more to read right now! I will be back!

"Miss me with that weak shit." - the captain of Frostheim. The rich, high-profile, commanding captain of Frostheim, Jin Kamurai.

(no joke tho, I love these so much. These are so fun to read.)

... This entire time.

I have been spelling Tohma's name wrong. This entire time. AND NONE OF YOU TOLD ME???

C'mon, there's like, at least three of you, and NO-ONE THOUGHT TO TELL ME ITS SPELLED TOHMA???

I'm not going back and correcting my posts cuz that would be absurd but it's now written in stone forever that I absolutely suck at reading.

For future reference, for my own sake, Tohma as in... Tohmatoes. not as in Thomas. Never as in Thomas.
