I thought ribs too, except there's no reason to think either of these two could've done that; she'd have to have fallen off something. And it'd have to have either been her ribs or asthma; it really couldn't be both.

This theory is amusing on some level, given how often Another subverts tropes. How many horror movies have you seen where one of the main characters escapes from the bad guy, only to seemingly run into someone else who can help them and instead get killed? Takako, however, just kicks the other guy's ass and moves on.

It does mean her death kinda sucks, though, since she survived two murder attempts and then got killed directly by the Calamity. Given Japan's fixation on the number three, if she'd somehow survived the third one, she'd probably have been fine...well, alive anyway.
