Talk:Takako Sugiura/@comment-397235-20140509013916

One of your best friends got killed by a freaking umbrella. One of your classmates died of a heart attack. One day your teacher walks in and guts himself during the morning announcements. You watch the guy you kind of have a thing for get run over by a boat, because he was trying to get your volleyball back. You develop an unhealthy attachment to your one surviving friend. You go on a class trip where one kid has an asthma attack and nearly dies. One of your classmates plays you a tape explaining, if you kill one of the other students, this will stop. You think you remember one girl from when you were little, but she wasn't missing an eye at that point. Then the nice old lady who runs the inn you're staying at shows up and nearly kills you (blood all over her and Izumi's room, blood all over Takako but she never actually killed anyone, her hand is bandaged implying she defended herself). At this point you're just a tad fucked up. You confront the girl you think is responsible, but her friend, who on some level you blame all this on, protects her, and your friend won't hear you out. So what do you do, at this point, to save everyone? You use fear of death to turn everyone against the person you think is responsible. Now you understand, on some level, what it was like to be this girl for a year. What do you think you would've done?

The only person Takako actually got killed besides herself is Yumi, who is probably just as fucked up as she is at this point (her freaking brother got run over by a piece of construction equipment!). Contrast that with Kazami, who was unconscious when Takako made her little speach but came to roughly the same conclusion, except that he just started trying to kill EVERYBODY. THAT fucker I didn't have any sympathy for.
