You can't just confidently say that my theory is wrong based on one thing Maya said and then ignore that she herself also doubted whether she was at the beginning of the reset loops.
So, it LITERALLY is uncharted territory for HER ONLY, but we dont know if this is something that has already happened to Akira before or not.
No no im not disregarding your theory based on Mayas words.Its just that the whole theory is operating on a "What if" scenario.Its far too strech-y for me thats all.

Update: It looks like this was a blink and you'll miss event because the progress tracker is back to normal. And update 0.7 has disappeared from the progress tracker(or was never there in the first place haven't scrolled up there in a minute.)

OK so now it turns out the Are You Happy Here Twitter page is an official entity of the Lessons in Love Universe. SO now we have a full blown ARG basically 2 weeks before the update. Recently the twitter page has been reposnding to fan dm's/fan art and this was one of the questions.

Also this was posted yesterday to kick off the supposed Arg.

Edit: At the time of this post nothing has been updated, but if anything else changes or is posted I'll more than likely make separate posts or update one of my earlier posts.

Dunno if anyone has posted these before. But it seems that recently account @AreYouHappyHere is kinda active and it gives us more insights to Upside Down House. I will post some that might contribute.

The writer of recent tweets is confirmed to be Kyoko, mother of Nadoka. And the man providing supplies is Yuu? Yuu is the one who put girls in house arrest? Wonder if Yuko and the man here has any connections.

Oh Lord Shiori is not only some devil doppelganger of Nodoka. She's another resident in House and seems to enjoy a good relationship with Ai Ariyoshi, which kinda kills my theory that Ai is Yuko, but I will accept it humbily. Then Shiori mentioned by Himawari, that might be a workmate of her came from The House too...We need to think about it.

Have we ever seen the name Setsuna before? Is she Yuko since Kyoko wants to pay her with flesh? But Setsuna is often used as a given name...
Setsuna and Sekai remind me of School Days. Wait, most characters in LiL have alliterative name. Setsuna Sekai, it can't be right?

The man never came into the House.

It could be, but it would be out of place. Nozomu Arakawa, Yuu Arakawa, Saki Arakawa, Kyoko Nagasawa - characters out of the simulation don't seem to have alliterative names.
Dolor is a word in English:
Huh. So it's just Selebus being his usual poetry douchebag.

Nah but if Sel takes this step into connecting an ARG vibe with NiB and LiL i am getting the pitchforks.NiB is still in an unstable state so why would you try to add more details to it? Ig ill wait until Dc345 spoonfeeds me the posts so i can start brainstorming cause i am NOT creating a twitter for this(Unless it becomes beig enough ig)

I've been wondering if this might be the case for a while. In her manic state, Nodoka says that she's infected with thoughts from a "second me".

That "second me" might be Nodoka's upside down reflection, given her interest in the topic.

Shiori is Nodoka's "twin" and is responsible for her actions in her manic state. I think that's because Shiori is the "second me" who is infecting her thoughts.

The thoughts that she's apparently infected with are causing her to write things connected to the upside down house on her board.

And to start talking from the perspective of an upside down house resident while she's digging at the abandoned school.

So if these thoughts are coming from Shiori, it makes sense that she's in the upside down house.

I'm still unclear on who exactly Shiori is, though. If she's Nodoka's "twin", is she a daughter that Kyoko had in the house? If she's just "another Nodoka" why isn't her name also Nodoka? The versions of Kyoko in Kumon-mi and in the house have the same name (or maybe they actually are the same person and the scenes in the house are from the past?).

If she's the same Shiori who is Himawari's coworker, that means that she's not stuck in the house like the main residents seem to be. Does Himawari also have a connection to the house? Is she the girl with blue eyes from Nodoka's dreams and the waterlogged journal?

The only thing I can add that's certain to all of this is that the events of the house happened in the past, and were, presumably, the start of the supernatural tampering with the gates but maybe not the resets.

All of this comes from "it all started before you were born, on the house by the lake".

Adding a bit of theorycrafting, we know Kyoko, or a version of her, got out of the house by the lake, because she gave birth to Nodoka and later had her body be taken care by her as her mind slipped somewhere.

From this, we can speculate that the events of the house by the lake are not the same as the resets because Kyoko, although she got out, did not ascend, but had to slip her mind after the events, still searching for her answer.

Maybe the events of the house were stopped somehow and everyone managed to escape to the real world again, which bodes well to the current simulation. Or, maybe they concluded but had another end goal, or even Kyoko was the odd one out.

Second theory, and wilder than the first, is that the events of the house by the lake aren't prior to Nodoka being born, but after it. Maybe Kyoko slipped into the house by the lake after Nodoka was born, and is there right now. This would align with Shiori also being there, but not Yuu or Saki (who are already dead).

Edit: Also, a lake is often used as a symbol for a gateway into another dimension, and an upside down house could be the reflection of a house by the lake on the surface of the water. Maybe the start of the supernatural events had to do with transporting the house into another realm, idk.
