In fact, Doki Doki is full of characters from a completely different game. A game whose dark story goes far beyond anything you experience in the Literature Club. And the true villain in this world? None other than shy, independent Yuri!

      @kalsyphr5039 6 років тому +41

      syaondri spot on, but theres probably more to it than that. Remember, Monika talks about “remembering” in her character file so the story might be following her trying to help Yuri suppress the third eye or do it herself to save yuri and the others, like stated in the report. Just a speculation though.

Yuri is surprised that that is the similarity you saw, saying that something else is similar between the two of them later in the book. But what else besides personality could be similar between the two of them....

    OK I think it’s pretty obvious that Yuri has already opened her third eye through torture, but what caused her to really start developing those habits of twitching, and going practically insane ,but what I find fascinating is she gives out how the kids at the camp were turned into test subjects ,but what puzzles me most is how most of the kids there had or have some part of a third eye in them and how a normal science guy found that third eye theory, so I’m kind of guessing that he has a third eye but what I’m most concerned about is how they found that camp of kids who are filled with have third eye pieces and how they found that camp, and who was running it before.

      One missing thing though, is that she isn't insane like that 'til Monika changes her files to force it. She's normal until then. It doesn't fit. That means there also has to be something similar with Monika for her to make that happen. A theory I've heard is that the third eye is the ability to break the fourth wall. Reading into project libitina explains it a little, as the subject with the third eye could change code to kill something. The failed suppression test can also be explained as the inability to stop the game code from breaking as an after affect, like the script breaking in Doki Doki. Plus, the posters with strings is a weak part of Mat's theory, because it could just be strings entering Yuri's heart, as that's what Monika manipulates. Seeing that Monika regrets her actions, and that she looks to save the character in the hidden message from her, I believe that the events from another game caused her to break down in Doki Doki. Another thing is a hidden bit of text in the Just Monika ending that says she didn't understand her abilities until she had escaped somewhere. This leads me to believe that she is libitina, and the others escaped from this other place, presumably another game, with her.

    I'm surprised they didn't mention the fact that in the game the player said that the main character in the Portrait of Markov reminds them of Yuri in both acts. In the first act, where Yuri is her normal self/calm, the player says its because she always seconds guesses herself and Yuri doesn't think much of it. But in the second act, where Yuri is more unhinged, she starts freaking out but then the player explains that its because she always second guesses herself and she calms down and says "I thought you meant...something else about her. Were not even that far into the book yet". I feel like this also proves this theory but that's just me 👍

    There's one other thing you missed that might be interesting. During the display of the poems for the festival, Yuri suddenly becomes very proactive, even though Sayori had claimed to be the next to share her poem. The title of that poem.. is "Afterimage of a Crimson Eye". The MC describes her becoming a completely different person while telling it, and describes to poem to have 'lots of twists and turns'. Could it be that she wrote about the other game?

    Another reason why Yuri is probably Libitina can be seen when you start reading the book with her for the second time. When the protagonist said that Yuri reminds him of the character of the book Yuri got really nervous. Then your character says that it was because she second guesses herself . She then goes on to say that she thought you meant something else about her and that this part of the story hasn't happened yet.

    Game Theory, I have great news for you:
    The names Libitina and Elyssa are mentioned in the book "The Portrait of Markov" read by Yuri. And apparently sisters Libitina and Elyssa. Also in episode one, Libitina says her hair is purple in her nightmare. The full sentence is:
    "My face was covered in long, purple hair."
    I haven't gotten to chapter two yet, but for your information, I'm writing this. I think you could make a special video for this book. And if you know what's going on in the book.. I think you can make a video again. And if you did, I didn't see it.
    Thanks for reading!

    Also, if you get the cutscene when you and Yuri are reading the book, your character says that the character in the book reminds him of Yuri. Yuri then says that she isn't like the character at all. She thinks that the main character might be on to her, so she tries to convince him that she isn't like the character. But she IS like the character. This is why she was doubting him so much.

      Yeah, in the corrupted version it gets even more obvious in hindsight:
      "The main character kind of reminds me of you a little bit."
      "E-Eh?? N-No, I don't relate to this character at all! Definitely not!"
      "Really...? I was just thinking the way she second-guesses things she says, and all that..."
      "A-Ah...That's what you were talking about...Sorry...I thought you meant...something else about her."
      "Something else...?"
      "N-Never mind! We didn't even get that far yet...So I don't know why that came into my head...Ahaha!"
      Ah, I thought that the character was a yandere or something, but if she's Libitina and that meant she was thinking about the fact that she ends up consumed with bloodlust somewhere after the beginning... (*Shiver*)

    Also, when it comes to the glitched/corrupted images of the characters, Yuri is always pictured with photorealistic eyes. None of the other girls have that. There's definitely been an eye theme to her all along. Great theory, as always!

    If you keep playing the game at the end with just monika she mentions something that ties into this theory extremely well. she says...
    "Hey you know that book you were reading with Yuri?"
    "Portrait of... whatever it was called"
    "Its funny, because I'm pretty sure that book-"
    "Actually, I don't think I should be talking about this."
    Could she be hinting at the up-coming game?

    One thing I noticed JUST NOW that helps your theory a bit is the fact that if you go the Yuri route. In the second act, while reading the book with her that is supposed her story, the mc states that the main character reminds him of her. She gets freaked out and says and denies it saying “I don’t relate to this character at all! Definitely not!... A-ah...” Then the mc says it’s because she second guesses herself and Yuri sounds relieved. As if she didn’t want him to know. She states “I thought you meant... something else about her” Mc asks what that is and her expression changes and she quickly responds nevermind! I think this is a huge detail some people missed! I hope you see this!!!
