## History

### Early Life

**Before Her Creation**

Before the creation of the Nameless Girl, the video game designers were discussing about making a new game called Seiko. The head, Rui Akamatsu, thought of making the character with the same name as the title of the game. Everyone agreed so they beginning making the design of Seiko. Finally, Seiko was created through a concept art. Rui thought that adding more characters would be perfect but none of them thought of other characters. One of them thought of other characters and the video game concept artist named Ritsuka Hashimoto told Rui if she could add someone nameless. As a result, Rui agreed and Ritsuka began to illustrate her. A video game designer said that the Nameless Girl should be a deuteragonist, and the last girl that the protagonist met.

An anime lover named Miyu Kizuchi has heard about Seiko (game). She thought that it was going to be anime-ish and began waiting for it. The game will delay the release in order to clean the corruption of R1NK0, which made Miyu sad. They finally released the game but they never knew that the virus is still corrupting R1NK0.

**Fabricated Past**

After successfully releasing Seiko (game), the virus has reached the entire game, making the Nameless Girl and the other game characters think that they were real characters from the real world. The Nameless Girl's memories and past were fabricated by the virus as follows:

The Girl's parents are a famous actor and a screenwriter, who went overseas for business, which is why the Nameless Girl began to live with her uncle and her wife. While the Nameless Girl claims there isn't any sad story behind it all, her parents are neglectful towards her, and he smiles bitterly whenever he talks about them, plus her parents never gave her a name. To show her gratitude to her uncle, the Nameless Girl helped him by working as his assistant in his detective agency. While she was only helping out and had no desire to be a detective herself, she learned to be a detective this way. The Nameless Girl's first detective case was unofficial but a tough one, as her classmate asked her to find his miniature pet alligator, and she had to do a lot of research, prepare tools and eventually climb around mountains and swim up rivers. As thanks for finding his pet, the Nameless Girl's classmate later gave her chocolate for Valentine's Day, though she assumed it was done just as friends. The Nameless Girl was mostly happy to be useful and memorized his words "thank you". Her first official case was an infidelity case, which was nothing compared to the alligator one.

Most of the cases that happened to come to her uncle were small things like investigating infidelity, but on the one rare occasion, the Nameless Girl managed to solve a murder case faster than the police and became publicly known as the junior detective. As a result, people began giving her nicknames like Nameless Girl Detective and Detective Without A Name. However, the Nameless Girl does not believe she deserves those titles, claiming that she only happened to solve this one case by chance.

In reality, the situation was more complicated. When the culprit was captured thanks to the Nameless Girl, his eyes were full of hatred and malice as he looked at the Nameless Girl, and the boy never forgot that gaze. The Nameless Girl heard later that the culprit had killed the victim to avenge his family and the victim was a horrible person who had tricked the culprit's family and driven them to suicide. The Nameless Girl felt guilty for "siding with" the victim and felt everything was her fault because she exposed the truth. She gained a fear of exposing the truth, considering herself a pathetic detective, and she began to pretend that she was blind by continuously closing her eyes because she couldn't look at other people's eyes anymore. Later she realized that continuously closing her eyes leads her to danger by not seeing, so she just used light contact lenses and try to avoid contact with people.

### Prior to Kiriko's Insanity

#### Project Riku

*Main article: Project Riku*
Part of the fake backstories created for the Nameless Girl and the other game characters was Project Riku, which supposedly happened before the kidnapping started. It was created when Riku Games has fallen after 46 developers has died. In this, the other game characters was fabricated as one of the developers. They evacuated and created Project Riku, in finding new devs to recreate the goal of Riku Games.

4 developers, Seiko Kamichiro, Kiriko Saikyo, Komaru Kagawa and The Nameless Girl (default name Ryoko) were the only ones alive and was evacuated to Project Riku. The deaths of the developers were caused by the deadly curse spreading across the world. The curse has affected Kiriko but she wasn't dead but instead she kidnapped Komaru and the girl. She never intended to kidnap Seiko since she has a romantic feeling for her but did it anyway to express her love Seiko. As a result of the game corruption has started.

The fabrication also caused the thinking that R1NK0 is an unknown entity but R1NK0 being a real person wasn't fabricated. Indeed she was a real person, a developer of the real Riku Games named Rinko Kimura.
