Diary

The **Diary** is Saiko-chan's personal diary. It was added in update 2.2.5 as one of the escape methods.

## Appearance

The diary is a small book with a gray tattered cover and a picture of a flower on it.

## Summary

The diary appears in Normal and Hard mode. In normal mode, it is always placed on the desk of the Headmaster's room (the player's starting point), in a Hard mode, it will be located in a random place in the school. After taking the diary in hand, the player must collect the pages hanging on the school walls (an indicator will appear in the lower right corner - 5 must be collected on easy, 7 on normal, and 9 on hard mode). However, if Saiko sees the player with the diary, Saiko will immediately ask him to give it back. If Saiko doesn't get the diary back on Normal or hard mode, or if an incomplete diary is given, Saiko will become angry. The incomplete diary can also be thrown on the floor and Saiko given headpats to calm her back down. If given the completed diary, Saiko will thank the player and slowly give them the code to the safe. However, if the player angered Saiko too often, she can instantly kill him instead. The warning for this will be Saiko's red eyes and the phrase "Die", which she will say instead of a number. To avoid death, the player can push her and run away. In response, she will laugh and start chasing the player.

The pages will be hung on the walls throughout the school - at the stairs, in the corridors with the classrooms, on the roof and in the toilets. They also can be found in the meeting room, cafeteria (not the kitchen), library on the side walls of the bookshelves and in the computer room. The first page **always** is hanging in the Headmastre's room.

For more detailed information about the location of the pages and the diary, see the interactive map on the School page.

## Yangire Mode

In Yangire mode, the mechanics are somewhat different - there is no diary cover, and all the pages on the walls are the same and look like the eighth page. Also, the player can take them without a diary. The taken page remains in the player's hand until Saiko will stand in front of him. In this case, the page will start to glow, Saiko will freeze and scream, hiding from the page with her hands, and glowing red cracks will appear on her body. Each page can protect the player from Saiko for 5 seconds. The effect will not overlap when collecting several pages, so it is not recommended to collect them in several pieces.

In **Extreme Yangire Mode**, All pages will burn.

## Trivia

* The "flower" on the cover of the diary is a reference to IMAGINATIONCLASH.
* Initially, the pages in Yangire mode had no animation and were protecting the player for 10 seconds, but the record was started from the moment the page was removed from the wall.
	+ Some later test builds reduced the duration from 10 to 8 seconds eventually but in 2.2.5, It's now reduced from 8 to 5 seconds.
* Initially, When the diary and the pages were first added, Grabbing another page will always say "Page 1" instead of "Page 2-9". There was also gonna be 8 pages just like in a classic Slenderman game.
	+ In later test builds along with the official update (2.2.5), Each difficulty now has a set requirement of pages that the player needs to get, 7 pages for Normal and 9 pages on Hard. Grabbing another page after the 1st page collected in the Diary will now say "Page 2-9" depending on difficulty.
		- In 2.3, An upcoming Easy difficulty was added and the player will need to collect 5 pages. However, Saiko will not be mad if you're holding the diary in front of her.
