Found this in the reworked part of the game, dunno if it's 'new' information exactly but i take it to be pretty suggestive of just how many cycles Maya has potentially gone through.
While brunette could be green, because maybe Maya.
Eyecolors and text colors should match, i think.
Interesting is also that "Red", say's something like:
"If you walk over a street don't forget to look both ways, because you never know when someone let's go of the wheel."
(Far stretch: Maybe what i said, and one of the carcrash drivers got distracted (spider), or someone wanted to die.)
Btw.:
Red, Sekai and Selebus are the only ones sharing the same text color.
Second picture should be from "Lamb legs", a bonus scene at the end you don't see in the replay, because end replay comes before that.
He has explicit flashbacks to pulling Sekai out of the wreckage and a fear of being a passenger in a car that's clearly articulated at multiple points in chapter 3. He was absolutely in the car when the accident happened.
I dont remember which event it was now, but I do remember Akira looking down at his arms and seeing them covered in blood too. pretty sure it was in a talk related to the car crash or cars in general? which to me says either he was also in the crash or showed up before anyone else to try to save at least sekai
I mean being "butchered, maimed and/or poisoned" have very high chances of killing someone (for not to say that they surely died)
Edit: Also now that i think about this, how Gods or Nao decide when to reset someone? Because if we assume that Ami might have killed someone why they let her do that but not let someone suicide?
Like they give free pass to murder and torture but if someone wants to end its life they are not allowed

Once again, people forget that nobody dies in Kumon-Mi, except maybe at the very end when everything else has also started to break down (like Tsuneyo's old man right as the world was starting to reset).
Ami doesn't kill them. Even if what she does to them SHOULD kill them, they live, because nobody dies in Kumon-Mi.
It's possible she did tell reveal what it was but his brain is just blocking any memory of being told. Similar to Noriko calling Sensei his name but having no memory of it until he learned it from Niki.
Maya isn't hiding what's in the box, she tells Sensei to open it if he can. He just seems to be incapable of learning what's in the box yet, in my opinion.

Well, Bluejay is pretty clear in that regard. Apart from it, there may be some other instances of characters cheating death, like Wakana overdosing or some even say Nodoka getting beaten up by Yumi
So it basically stated that you cannot commit sucide in Kumon-me. And maybe you also cannot get killed.
I want to agrue about the connection between "bluejay" and "all is bright" / "twisting ivi". In bluejay Makoto jumped and then reset/teleported to safe place before she fell. Preventing lethal injuries is the exact opposite of surviving lethal poisoning/injures. So "all is bright" is more like "Wakana could finnaly overdose herself becose this time it is not enough to kill her", than "miracly survive after lethal poisoning". And "twisting ivi" doesn't have even this sort of connection, because there is no room for supernatural prevention of earlier attempts.
You should also remember dosens of murdered janitors. Poor guys either didn't have plot armor or it is just possible to kill somebody (maybe except suicide by friend)
And even apart from the above, there is no known rules for supernatural powers, especialy Ami's cute girl magic, so she can just ignore any restriction unless proven otherwise
Yasu has some quotes that might be relevant to death and birds:
Yasu: "There is no death. Just a second plane of existence. A plane much greater than this."
Yasu: "Birds are sacred beings in the eyes of He who is so commonly misunderstood. They can pass through planes at will and hear things that normal humans can not."
It is interesting that she implies that birds are humans. Wonder if that says something about the bluejay/Makoto or something.

just as a side note...
if you wanted to enact revenge by killing someone but there was some kind of magical system in place where every death gets undone and no one even remembers the vengeance, not even the victim, what would you do? lets also say you were the one to make said system but can't change it for some reason or another. brutal protracted unimaginable torture over long periods of time is the closest you can get till you are satisfied and that is even wiped from the mind of the victim eventually, every thing undone meaning not only do you get to live out your sickest revenge fantasies as long as you dont kill them in the process but you will NEVER have to come to terms with what you did since its all going to be undone anyway. but the only way to eek out just that small bit of extra satisfaction is to make them live through the consequences of crossing you till they inevitably get reset.

The faceless, nameless janitors who could literally just be the same person dying over and over again, reporting back to work only to be killed again and nobody would ever know.
Yeah i think the janitors dying is just a gag, after just replaying the first death-of-one scene yesterday, the game describes Akira and Ami scrubbing brain matter off of the floor in an overly-nonchalant way, i don't think anyone should read into them as a sign of anything.
the release dates are always tentatively the 1st of the month, depending on how fast the development and coding and proofreading goes
or thats what its been listed as for quite a while in the discord and images shared from it
