Just had a very "KIDS THESE DAYS!!" moments, when an YouTuber said, "The average kid isn't going to take the time to watch a movie ten years older than they are", and I'm like, "Why does the average kid care? Wouldn't they just be watching what's available at h... oooooohhhhhhhhhh."

Sloane Cameron, once a young devotee to the kings and queens of the land has been chosen to be sealed alive in the royal temple in order to guard the graves and riches of the dead. Unbeknownst to them, the scripture painted onto their limbs and back were not for protection or luck in the afterlife like they've been told, but rather curses and spells binding their soul onto the thin thread which laid between the two realms, dividing the living from the dead. That is where their soul was now bound to wander until eternity, losing their grip on mortality yet unable to pass on like the rest.

With time their flesh rotted away leaving nothing but a husk of sand and bones. Before sealing, their sight was blinded as they weren't worthy of looking onto the royals that rested within these tombs, not even in death, and to ensure that Sloane wouldn't try to escape.

For centuries the guardian remained asleep in their designated chamber. That was until now. Until you and your crew of explorers too curious for your own good uncovered the entrance to the temple, awakening the guardian from their peaceful slumber in the process.

The guardian now awake had one goal in mind.

With a torch in hand you scanned the golden walls upon entering, lightly tracing your fingers along the carved paintings. Sand and dust coating your fingertips. For a moment you swore you could feel another presence there with you. Another pair of eyes watching, lingering on you while your crew stayed behind. The room suddenly felt cooler, as if a draft of cold air passed through you making a shiver run up your spine. This spooked you even further but you were determined to continue onward.

Its probably just my imagination you tried to comfort yourself as you stepped deeper.

A Long Post On the Death Flags of Every Remaining Student and Their Survival Odds

they all have major flags what the fuck

Wada is slowly starving to death due to his eating disorders/depression/trauma/etc. he passed out due to malnutrition, along with his food stash getting stolen by an unknown party. He seems to be quickly spiraling down to suicidal ideation and he has crippling survivors guilt. Unlikely to murder but likely to be a victim. He got a major sprite update, which might count as the “big change” required to “complete his character arc”, despite nothing really happening to change him as a person. Wada has also presumably taken a punishment from Defense Game, which might make someone angry enough to target him. Unlikely, though. Plus, he wouldn’t be hard to physically take down due to the muscle atrophy/weakness that starvation causes. His health is deteriorating so rapidly that if he doesn’t die from what he’s doing to himself, someone else might. Honestly 50/50 chance at surviving this chapter, but honestly? Not giving off too many “gonna die” vibes. If this goes on long enough, he will, but he doesn’t seem in immediate mortal peril.

Ojima’s character arc could feasibly be called “complete”, only just beginning to process and accept the trauma he went through. We already saw this with Kamimura dying right after regaining the will to live. It’s likely he might die for “the tragedy of a cutoff character arc” trope. Plus, he’d be an easy target if someone managed to find him dissociating, due to the established fact that he cannot feel pain when daydreaming (picking at stitches without realizing). Hiroaki told Ojima that he still had a long time to live and that he was only 17, something Hama said to Chiba right before her death in chapter 2. For meta reasons, his death would also progress everybody’s character arcs as well, especially Hiroaki’s. If he died, the others would almost certainly see Hiroaki’s breakdown in real time, which would be.. honestly, the first breakdown they’ve ever seen from him. Because yes, they’ve seen him blowing up, a few have seen him crying, they’ve seen him tired and exhausted. But not full on crying, doing one of his “I need you” speeches to Ojima while sobbing his eyes out. And I hate to make Ojima all about Hiroaki because they’re fully fleshed characters outside of each other, but that’s a very compelling plot point to make. Likely to die in some way, whether he’s going to be the victim or the culprit.

Hiroaki is losing all the progress he made with his addiction, and if this killing game doesn’t end soon, he’s going to fall back into withdrawal again for the second time. His character arc is finishing up, but still feels somewhat incomplete, so I feel it’s unlikely he doesn’t have more things to do. Plus, the remaining cast’s opinions on him are fairly negative, except for Ojima and Wada. Due to recent events, he seems to be quickly spiraling back down to suicidal ideation and hopelessness, which makes risky behavior increasingly more likely as he loses the will to keep himself safe. He is starting to believe everybody hates him again, and that nothing is worth it, and that trying to become a better person is a waste of time. All the others are making it harder for Hiroaki to keep fighting to change, mostly due to Tamba’a insistence that he’s a bad person. His mental health is taking a huge hit. Just like Ojima, his death would also affect everybody’s character arcs: Wada and Ojima’s in a negative way (more survivors guilt/trauma). Death is probable, likely by his own hands, but with less death flags than Ojima or some of the others.

Tamba obviously has the death threats she’s been dealing with, and she’s the most on-edge and paranoid character in the remaining cast. She almost seriously injured or killed Hiroaki in chapter 4 by accident, and it’s not entirely unlikely that she’d do something stupid out of impulse— that hurts either herself or someone else. She hasn’t changed much at all, and this chapter the only development she’s gotten have been gaining more paranoia and insecurity. She’s gotten almost no character development this chapter, and yet, it’s unlikely she’d be the victim. Possibly she’d be the culprit due to fear or something, her desperation leading to take matters into her own hands. Still, unlikely to be killed. In a meta way, it’s too obvious. The note is likely to be a diversion for both them and us the fans, to help completely blindside us when the actual body discovery comes out. High death flags, but unlikely to be killed by someone.

Yanagi has been getting more screen time and character moments, especially playing his role as the medic for everybody else. He’s partly been incapacitated this chapter due to his concussion presumably acting up from stress. He’s had a small breakdown, similar to Tsuno, because he doesn’t know how to help everyone. Yanagi has been helping a lot of people recently, even Hiroaki, and could arguably be called the “rock” besides Mai. He does have issues with anger control sometimes, especially when provoked, which could lead to some reckless decisions. His relationships with the other characters have been developing quickly which suggests he might die soon, along with the trope of “medic dies and everybody’s health is negatively affected as a result”. He wants Mai and everybody else to escape, and he might do something to make sure of it. Honestly unsure whether or not he’d kill someone for that, though. If he wasn’t provoked beforehand, I don’t think he’d choose to murder. His outburst at Hiroaki in chapter 2 was probably the most intense rage he’s going to get, ever. Unless something as drastic as that happens, such as Mai being killed. Likely to die for both plot and relevance reasons

Hasegawa is the smartest of the remaining cast, which makes him a big target. This is the last trial of the killing game, according to Monomoko, which means everybody is desperate and eager to get out. Taking out Hasegawa would ensure the killer’s odds increased drastically, as Hiroaki is also pretty good at deduction, but his opinions are believed and respected much less. He has survivor’s guilt from Kamimura dying, and despite four full chapters going by, he hasn’t improved much in the self-confidence category. Yes, he has his moments, but he’s still insecure and lacking in confidence. He’s been targeted pretty heavily, from Decision Game’s branding, to losing an eye, to discovering the bugged audio recorders, to getting high from mysterious circumstances. He broke the fourth wall. Wouldn’t it be highly likely for- from a meta perspective- Hasegawa to get killed off so none of the other characters figure out the truth? He’s bound to tell the others if he doesn’t die. He doesn’t truly have motivation to murder anybody and he doesn’t seem to have the mental fortitude to, either. The tricks during the entirety of chapter 5 seem to be something Hasegawa could pull off, but what motivation would he have? Again, high death flags, especially as a victim. Likely to die, unlikely to be the culprit.

Mai has been getting lots of screen time as well, she’s struggling to keep everybody else afloat and is a high risk for the “removing the anchor” trope. She hasn’t gotten much major development recently, only small character moments. She’s encountered two traps so far and gotten a note inviting her to a highly possible trap. She’s been a reliable figure during the entirety of this killing game, the grounding anchor. Mai is trustworthy and realistic and has common sense, which makes her unlikely to be a culprit. She doesn’t have motivation to anyway, but if she was murdered, it makes sense. She’s the one holding everybody together at this point, and her death would absolutely affect everybody in a negative way, especially Yanagi. She’s been the self proclaimed bodyguard for Tamba since day 1, and it’s only fitting that the supposed target isn’t even the one that dies. The pool is a high risk area due to electrocution/drowning being an easy way to murder without having to physically overpower/surprise the victim. Due to her strength she’d be an unlikely target for murder, but if the killer decided to outsmart her, she’s screwed. If there’s nothing for her to physically fight against, what can she do? Unsure of her death odds, but has many reasons and possibilities to get killed. Unlikely to murder.
