hi. I just updated this post with the infographic and more details. also important addition to note:

I made an AO3 collection (weekofdemise) authors can post to / add their works to for Week of Demise! just to make those works easier to find

Week of Demise 2025: July 20th - July 26th

The Week of Demise availability survey has ended! This year, 16 out of 24 votes voted for the week to be held from July 20th - July 26th.

You're getting the prompt list quite early! i.e. a whopping two months to prepare. This year, you may pick from a selection of 24 one-word prompts (4 per day) to create artwork (of any medium; writing, drawing, etc.) based on. You are free to interpret these however you want (that's the fun of it), and pick more than one prompt per day or even combine prompts for a day if you so desire!

For Tumblr, post your artwork to the tag #week of demise or #weekofdemise. On other platforms, you may use the equivalent #weekofdemise tag. If posting to AO3, you may post to the collection weekofdemise.

(Infographic and prompt list below. link to website for more information on Week of Demise)

Here are all the prompts in text form:

Day 1: Photo / Secret / Doors / Parallel

Day 2: Stars / Error / Game / Repeat

Day 3: Diary / Music / Curse / Mundane

Day 4: Summer / Paradox / Ghost / Rewrite

Day 5: Rain / Memory / Gaze / Theater

Day 6: Color / End / Number / Reality

Day 7: Free Day!

why i love the film club's tragedy

okay so we were talking about the reasons for the appeal of the film club in shuuen no shiori. I realized I hadn't supplied my own honest thoughts on it. I had so much to say that I ended up taking up almost two full discord messages just to write it. anyways here it is.

i do understand how the occult club's dysfunctional relationships and dynamics can be fun to play with and examine/explore . and in concept/word only describing just their relationships alone, the film club sounds mundane/boring to me that not even I imagined that I would be a huge fan of them at first. but . one of hte special things that makes the film club so interesting is precisely the overall role they play in relation to the occult club's narrative. it's quite unique . and then like. It's Really Fun to contrast the film club and occult club because they foil each other so much. occult club's tragedy was caused/perpetuated by an overall lack of communication and trust among the group members. there was no traitor (among the four of them, at least...?) , but they all acted in accordance with the false belief that there was one. the film club's tragedy is different. the power of friendship could Not save them from their tragedy. their friendships possibly made them more susceptible their fate, even, with the suggestion that the film club did have a "traitor" (murderer) even when none of them could have suspected it. their tragedy was sudden. it was cutting those happy, mundane days short.

and then of course the other big thing is E-ki . E-ki adds to all of this interest through the power of first Subverting our expectations, red herring it the fuck out, and just Existing as a character because wha the fuck. what do you mean a 5th one .and also his ties to the bookmark of demise. THEN of course we get to experience the film club's story through his lens while knowing the inevitable tragedy that befalls them in the end (their story ended before we even began.) and the dramatic irony from knowing this while hearing e-ki repeatedly express how much he doesn't want these Fun-filled days to end. if only! if only! the reader's anticipation for the worst conclusion while e-ki is kind of clueless! it is through e-ki's meaningful interactions with the film club that the film club is given life and is made important to us, because we don't get the other film club members' perspectives. and his love for his friends is Fucking Contagious. anyways. when their happy days are cut short and it is revealed e-ki has just been dooming himself to a neverending cycle of repeating them in his head over and over and over for 10 years . bashing my head against the wall. I'm sure we would have loved to know the film club more. (I'm sure E-ki would have loved to, too. where's that quote. "It's just that, when we do things together, it brings us all closer...!") part of the overall tragedy is in not knowing them, as well. and the mystery surrounding them that is never solved and it's just. and. to me I think the very fact that shuuenpro story's itself is Less fair to the film club makes me more sympathetic to them . because at least like. The occult club had a chance to avoid their tragedy. Still does if their time loop is taken to be literal. but the film club dying is like. a set event. a vital event that eventually leads to the occult club's story beginning. The film club having a happy ending was always fundamentally incompatible with "Shuuen no Shiori". I'm sorry, E-ki.

obscure repeatragedy fact: the -Re:act- beep

thanks june for cursing me with the knowledge of the distinct BEEP (akin to a heart rate monitor's) sound that comes IMMEDIATELY after the first chorus of the -Re:act- version of repeatragedy. ever since he pointed it out i have not been able to listen to repeatragedy re:act without hearing it. Every. Time.

tried throwing it through a high-pass filter in an attempt to isolate it more. if you don't ignore the guitar it's hard to notice it

it seems to appear only ONCE in the song. It is not a regular part of the instrumental, nor does it appear after any other chorus. just the first one. additionally, I checked the Shuuen -Re:mind- version of Repeatragedy: it doesn't have it.

uhm. considering this is not the only heartbeat-like thing relating to repeatragedy(?) (see: the pulse image before repeatragedy in the re:mind crossfade, and maybe the instrumental part before the first chorus?) I'm just sitting here like. Why. Why would you do this.

transparent edits of Saine's art of the occult club (light novel 1), film club (light novel 3), and that other guy (light novel 4)

spent a couple of days working on these. cleaned them up as much as i could 🫡. original artist is saine (さいね)

Ah yes. and here's that other character 🙄

[re-code1713]

to the first question: i might consider adding that to the document, I suppose? it's never really explained anywhere in canon or by word of god, but one can speculate it's to mimick the way the names of minors involved in crimes in Japan are kept confidential and instead replaced with placeholder names like "Boy A", "Girl B", etc.

second question: i have more info about that on my website guide page. I am not sure where it might be appropriate to actually explain it in the document itself, though. it's not meant to be a shuuen encyclopedia

thanks for the suggestions!

9000 Word Summary of Shuuen no Shiori (Google Doc)

realized I never made a post for my 9000 word summary of shuuenpro . i remember spending like. 5 days writing this in December and then being so burnt out i couldn't write again for the rest of the month. the film club biases are so obvious in this document. I hope I didn't do anything too dirty.

The intended audience is mainly for like. people who have never ever read Shuuenpro and don't want to actually read it. part of my desperate measures to get people to know of Shuuen no Shiori's story. etc. It was supposed to only be 6000 words. (but unfortunately, I really like the film club.)

here it is. If it has any particularly embarrassing inaccuracies feel free to comment/suggest on the document
