Okay so, who is T? cause it's the second happy event that heavily calls attention to this old lost friend which is a she, and I can only think of tsuneyo, but surely it's someone else?

please don't be just "teacher" cause that'd be super lame

On a side note, in that same event, I noticed that if you fingered Ami the angels will claim for Akira to be castrated, but if hasn't, they'll say his sin is suicide and that he should be given to Nozomu - given that the god and Akira's brother have the same name, and their relationship with Ami, I thought that may be relevant

HOPE will also say for the angels not to scream cause they'll wake the girl (?), what girl.

And amiokay (which is from the same world as akira, but not of hope's), while she's being assaulted by a machine will explain to Akira that the "gods" enter loops of repeated speech just like machines, and that she and Akira's job is to fix things

Do with those informations what you will, cause I really didn't remember any of it

And how could she be an old friend when the whole sinkhole and with it the new girls from the other school is something that maya prime cant recall has ever happened? So it would be even unlikely that they even knew each other from another loop, not even to speak of becoming friends.

Personally i would be careful with such old events, because i really would assume at least some of them include parts of storylines Sel has been droped/forgotten by now.

It probably is teacher. But it is referring to Sekai as teacher.

I think what she was to Akira and her identity was still being obscured at the time of that event.
Click to expand...
yeah, that's probably it. The angels' voice reminding him of Sekai's makes a lot more sense than Tsuneyo's. Also, there's this happy event called "the letter T" where he says just how much he hates it, amiokay is crucified on a giant t, while telling him to look for what's buried beneath his feet, and even bizarre ami shows up saying in japanese for him not to trust hope and how he's a trap.

I guess it all boiled down to Sekai in the end (I just don't know if she's the "girl" that hope didnt want to wake).

It's be funny if Sekai had HOPE wrapped around her finger, just as Akira's brother. Although I barely have an idea of their relationship dynamic.

replaying these early events I feel like there's a lot of random stuff. for instance, there are these smiley faces that seem like early concepts and never show up again.

or there's this random "HOPE" on chika's cellphone, and I don't ever remember she being tampered with (other than a very quick scene when Akira leads her to her home in the middle of the night, when it shows her crying, even though she's not sad at all in real life).

And I can't figure out what that was about. Sometimes it feels like there was some random stuff that just remained as red herrings that don't really matter.

How? :unsure: It clearly does say "Her name". So unless her full name is Sekai Teacher Arakawa, that wouldnt make sense.
Click to expand...
Again, I think it's super lame. But other than it being her name it fits very well.

Also, isn't Akira's "name" literally Sensei for a lot of the game? Maybe he just recalled her being called Teacher because a) he didn't recall Sekai's name at that point in time, and b) he was doing the exact same thing by using Sensei as if it was his actual name.

If there's a better theory I'd love to hear it.

And you probably would be right about that, a lot of stuff early in the game feels like it is just there for the sake of been there. Because a lot of it just leads no where. But, i wont even blame Sel for this, because that is just how a story under active development sometimes works out. You can see that a lot in TV shows when you compare the early seasons to later ones.

You really think so? Because i dont even think the old friend part does fit. She was his lover, mistress, aunt, his brothers wife, part of the family and abuser of him. Nothing of that i would really take equal to a old friend.

Well, i have a theory, but it is really just from my own experience about how stuff like this can happen in stories you are working on and that have become so big that it became easy to overlook such small details. And that is that the "old friend whos name starts with a T" is an old reference to niki, when the name he planned to give her started with a T, only that he changed her name to Niki later, and just forgot that he had implemented this reference to an old friend who's name starts with a T.

But it is really just speculation, so take it with a grain of salt.

Pretty sure you got the bit with "aunt" wrong, she was his mother figure and not his aunt nor a relative to him.
Click to expand...
Yeah, you are right, i did mean sister in law, i cant even tell why i wrote aunt. Maybe my mind turned his brother to his uncle for a split second or something. :unsure: I blame the fact that his "brother" isnt even really important to the story, so he could be something else and it wouldnt change anything.

I'm pretty sure, however, as it's told in Happy Event Tick Tock, the girl died a long long time ago whose name starts with letter T was

I dont recall any of this. :unsure:

Edit: Tick Tock you say? I will reread the event and see what i get out of it.
Edit 2: Oh, the clock room. Yeah, i should have known by the name. Tbh, i would take everything from events that early that isnt confirmed in some way in later events with more than just a grain of salt.

I also think, the having sex with literally nailing to the wall is a obvious sign, that you are not suppose to take most if not everything literally here.

Teacher was probably used as the obfuscation because Sekai taught him what love is. (In the game leasons in love). And the messed up idea of what love is that he learnt from her is very central to his character.

Also I think she was a teacher right?(Or have I miss remembered?) Plus I think before we even fully know who she is she shows up in some happy events/blackout stuff in a teacher like role.

Edit: And regarding "old friend". He doesn't remember (and we would not yet have figured out beyond theories) who or what she is to him at the time of that event. So it makes sense for it to be vauge.
