"It was a simulation this whole time" as an endstage reveal is the issue I have with it. If you're gonna set the game in a simulationi and have the conflict be about breaking free from it, do what Matrix did and make that explicit in the first act.
As do i. A loose theory of mine was that maybe little Kaori was playing with a spider in her parents car while they where driving, and it shocked and distracted the driver (probably her mom) which led to the car crash.
But that contradicts what im thinking nowadays, where Kaori is involved with Nao.
but if you want me to search for a specific frame for a specific line, nah, i dont have anywhere near the patience for it, though i do periodically go through each girls events one by one, I legit can't be bothered to write down each event that corresponds to a theory. ( I really hate how difficult it is to find things in this game, i know someone suggested a really good idea for the wiki where you can search events by who is in them and you can add multiple people to the search... that would be fantastic. there are also scenes/frames being cut out of these replay events now for several updates which bothers me too)
the niki's basement thing i'm not entirely sure what he said in his thoughts, just alluded to his tutoring days he cant remember and compared it to what niki is doing.
Just replayed that event and nowhere was it mentioned he rented anything just for tutoring. Her going to a grody crumbling building seems to just mean she went to his creepy old apartment for tutoring, like she's mentioned earlier:
Seems to confirm he didn't just rent out some space for tutoring like Niki's basement. Instead he was using his creepy old apartment that was in a grody crumbling building.
Also, yeah I do wish things were easier to find as well. I've just begun screenshotting things I deem notable to save time.
Random theory time:
I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned or theorized this before, and it definitely comes out of left field, but anyone else think that Geoffrey might actually be the third god/Pareidolia? Ayane's butler.
Geoffrey can mean divine peace and is related to Godfrey, and has a reason to want to aid Sensei while not actually liking him or being on his side. Ayane loves him and Geoffrey seems to be one of the only people that cares about her, and pays attention to her. Not to mention, I can see why a butler would be "concerned", and Pareidolia could easily be a code name, which based off Geoffrey's apparent life, it wouldn't be surprising if he's had code names before. I also recall Geoffrey and Pareidolia both mentioning/being mentioned to want to meet/get a hold of Sensei at some point. (Albeit it's been awhile, so could be wrong)
Not much credibility, but it did seem like a possibility.
This and a theory that Sekai might actually be some entity that created and became this world when Maya prayed for anything to resurrect Sensei after he killed himself for knocking her up, have been on my mind for a bit.

Since it's mentioned that young Akira was a neighbor to Niki/Noriko, it'd surprise me if they (parents) had to drive Noriko there.
That makes it more plausible he tutored away from his apartment.

i mean considering the tsuneyo dad's room is that room theory... it having a bed and bathroom doesnt seem that weird and we had more than one person in the thread saying he rented out a 2nd space for tutoring. pretty sure its just a matter of hunting it down.

I don't really see any base for that theory either, tbh. I mean if someone can actually bring up evidence of him renting a 2nd space just for tutoring instead of it being his apartment, it'd be a different story, but no one has yet. Seems more likes it's just something that's been assumed. Like Noriko stalking him to find out he was a tutor, when it was actually Niki who told her family about it.
Oh well, I'm sure it'll be explained later on when he regains more memories on Maya.

didn't Yasu specifically say it was a storefront in the old district?
she said "There are several answers to that question. two of which are very naughty. but the one that's likely written down is... Well, i suppose its safe to just call it a storefront in the old district now. Though, it was quite different back when it was used for... educational purposes."
i can see people using that as some sorta basis for the tojo ramen theory, but its still too vague and we got nothing linking akira and Mr Tojo yet

Interesting. I definitely forgot that it is apparently a storefront now. Thanks for the insight. That also definitely implies what the bed was used for.

I was wrong, I guess there is some basis to the Ramen shop theory. My bad.
I mean I knew it had merit. Like it's vaguely sprinkled throughout the game and I stand by it being said in game a few times regarding a place he rents for tutoring.
In regards to noriko stalking sense this was done after he tutored and abondoned her in one of her events she talks about how she got on a bus to go through the old town every weekend and spent all day looking to see him through the window and she saw him once and begged the bus driver to let her out and they wouldn't stop
Like the only other place I can see as having any significance in the old town that might be the location of where sensei tutored... would be the convenience store noriko works at and she got a job there hoping sensei would just randomly pop up there but I'm pretty sure noriko doesn't even remember where the place is because I remember her talking about trying to find the place again on her own because her parents always drove her there and never being able to find it. The fact it was turned into a store front since he tutored means she wouldn't even recognize it most likely if it's either of those places though

Like most of the lazy ass theories I read regarding the gods make me just wince in pain sometimes. It's like reading fan girl theories on why Justin Beiber in early 2000s wore a blue shirt at a concert so he clearly lost his virginity to Cristina Agulaira in Spain 3 weeks ago even though he was performing a concert in LA at that exact time. Utter insanity. That's the main reason why I don't like God of wires is tsuneyos dad theory. Massive leaps in logic
its also possible we just havent seen the location yet. akira is blocking it out whenever he goes to the old town. hell maybe during the event Where the Sidewalk Ends was around there and thats why his brain blocked it all out. or maybe that was near the crash or something.

Where the Sidewalk Ends leading to it makes a lot of sense, but Niki showed us the location of the crash. Also I think that Akira, the king of avoiding feelings, probably didn't set up shop down the street from where the love of his life died.
