## Profile

### In-game Description

*"A 17-year-old high school junior. Last year, he caused an accident that resulted in the death of his older sister. He lost all his friends in school and was constantly harassed online. Just as he was about to lose it all, he received an invitation to transfer to Mihate High School. He escapes to Mihate Town and starts a new life under pseudonym. After getting involved in the lives of other people like Maimi and Kensuke, he learns to take life more positively and continue living."*
### History

The **Protagonist** is the main character of the story. He moves into the Mansion during the Prologue after transferring to Mihate High. The story follows him as he spends his summer vacation in Mihate High.

**Something far scarier than the Yomibito lurk below, SPOILERS!**In the Truth Ending, the player is revealed to be Sora Otonashi. A year before the events of the game, Sora was driving his sister's car and got into an accident resulting in her death. His name and personal information spread around the internet resulting in extreme backlash and abuse and his empty and nihilistic personality. Kaori eventually sends him a invitation to attend Mihate High and start over, leading to the events of the game. His sister is also revealed to be Yukino, who came back to life as a Yomibito and lost all memory of him.

## Personality

The Protagonist is initially a very brooding and withdrawn person, often observing life with a fatalistic viewpoint and a streak of nihilism, declaring that "none of it matters" and that praying to the gods is worthless. Despite this however, his reactions to the antics he gets into are quite typical of a high school boy, expressing distaste and concern towards Kensuke's perverted behavior as well as nervousness and embarrassment when he's alone with or ends up in 'compromising' situations with the heroines.

### Worst End

During the Prologue the player is initially forced to refuse joining the Mystery Club and spends the summer listlessly, continuing to "exist and consume air". A series of killings occur involving more students and filming for Worldend is cancelled. On the last day of summer, the Protagonist receives a call from Yukino asking to meet at the Seafront saying that she's made a breakthrough in the case. Upon arriving, Yukino is not there and the Protagonist is unable to contact her. He waits there for the remainder of the day before returning home to the Mansion that night. When he arrives home, he finds the lights off and the front door open and rushes inside. The living room is in chaos, covered in blood and upon hearing something upstairs, he drops his bag and rushes upstairs to find Yukino clinging to life in the hallway with a large cut in her side. She whispers Maimi's name and weakly points to her bedroom prompting the Protagonist to check on her. Maimi is found already dead in her room, slumped forward, covered in cuts and a stab wound in her abdomen. A loud pounding and the need for his phone draws the Protagonist back downstairs to the entrance. He looks through the peephole to see Miu staring back at him demanding he open the door. He stumbles backwards and hears someone behind him. He turns around to see Kaori with wild eyes as she kills him. The player will end up on this ending if they fail to complete a heroine's route, although the setup is different. If reached during the main game, a series of personal events will cause the members of the Mystery Club to grow distant. The rest of the ending plays out the same as the Prologue, with Yukino, Maimi and the Protagonist dying.
