Hi, omg I’m back to like doing my dumb silly lil twst theories or like fucking twst random thoughts.
Ok so we all know that Trey’s platinum jacket birthday card is coming out soon and on the background are pictures from the movie that each each character is based off of. For instance we all know that Riddle, obviously represents the queen of hearts and Ace,Deuce,Cater,and Trey represent the card soldiers. BUT if we analyze a little deeper, they all could also represent another character from Alice in wonderland like Deuce is hinted to be similar to the white rabbit (please don’t quote me on this, that clocktown card was kinda making it obvious) , or Cater could possibly the March Hare. But with Ace’s Platinum Jacket card, he’s only represented by the card soldiers and the queen of hearts herself!!
So in a way, that theory (is this considered one??) of each individual character from twst is represented by someone is slightly contradictory in a way but let me get to the point. I personally assumed that Trey was probably like the Mad Hatter in a way but like not really but then with the preview of his new card, the mad hatter isn’t even on there , it’s like the same as Aces just the card soldiers and the queen of hearts.
But personally every time I see heartslabyul plat jackets I’m like, “who are they supposed to represent in Alice in wonderland???” But then it I thought to myself and let it simmer.
What if the reason why the queen of hearts is on their card is because (in some way shape or form) the queen of hearts also represents them as the character.
Now of course Riddle is like 100% is like the queen if hearts but in his own way but I mainly wanna focus on Trey. But I wanna focus on when Trey gets angry. In his dorm uniform vignette, first years are complaining on how all of Trey’s cakes taste the same so they decided to make a cake , that goes terribly wrong, Trey makes up for it by actually making another cake and everything is just normal. But Trey (being the not normal mf he is /pos ) makes the first years finish that fucked up cake cause he was still mad about it. Now when reading this , you’re probably thinking “dawg the math isn’t mathing, how does this make sense” now Ik it’s insane but we all know that Trey’s anger isn’t as exaggerated like Riddles, but I feel like how insane alice in wonderland is , like the concept and the story itself, I feel like it would be one the many punishments that card soldiers do. In the manga, Ace and Deuce had to sing the crocodile song as a consequence of the whole debacle in the prologue.
There are probably some more things to this argument and I could possibly find similar traits to the queen if hearts and Ace too, but it’s 3 in the morning and I want to sleep so badly. I’m so sorry for putting y’all through this nightmare blunt rotation thought. (Apologies for the grammar errors if any!!)
Update: So like I just realized that in the manga Ace and Deuce wasn’t there to sing the crocodile song when everyone else was supposed to😭😭
TWST theory or just me thinking the most dumbest theory in the world
Idk if this has ever been said but I just gotta get this thought out.
What if RSA had their own great seven? For instance , there’s statues of the protagonists in Disney movies. If remember in one of Leonas chats (please correct me if I’m wrong), he acknowledged that Scar killed Mufasa and i think Azul also saying that he is aware that Ursula has done bad things??? I wonder why most of the bad things the great seven did just got swept under the rug??? I’m probably thinking into it, but yeah I like to think that essentially RSA or Noble Bell College even has their own belief when it comes to the greats.
It has been a while, but the Clean Dishes drama CD was finally released earlier this month! I really liked it, so I decided to play some more of the epilogues. This one focuses on the relationship between Ruu and Kimika. Be aware that it does spoil the game's good ending.
This story takes place after the ‘Hare’s Nest incident’ in which Kimika kidnapped Shiro and tried to use a bomb to kill both of them, believing that death was the only answer. Baku saved Shiro and Kimika was arrested. Shortly after this arrest, Ruu had trouble believing that the culprit was Kimika, but somewhere deep in his heart he knew it was really him. Even though Kimika usually smiled brightly, a tremendous darkness was hidden behind that smile.
"I wish I had realized sooner..."
The epilogue then skips to a flashback. Back then, Ruu worked for a car repair shop. While working there, he often came into contact with a man he absolutely despised, who would purposely torment the weak for his own entertainment. Because of his connections, he was never punished for his actions. One day when he witnessed one of his coworkers being harassed in the bathrooms, Ruu couldn’t handle it anymore and punched this man in the face. The man was not seriously injured, but as a result of this Ruu lost his job. He didn't regret punching the man, but he couldn't accept that he got fired for defending his coworker.
"At that time, I came across a recruitment ad online, from Sara-ya.”
At first, Ruu was a bit confused what exactly they meant with 'cleaning a room a person died in'. The location of the company was also not ideal, Shinkoumi is a place notorious for being unsafe. Of course, he could have picked a different job, but for some reason he decided to send an email to them. The work at Sara-ya was exactly what he expected, and it took some time getting used to it. However, in terms of human relationships, everyone was friendly and comfortable with each other.
"After a long time, when I was no longer called a rookie, I decided to team up with Kimika."
"I don't mean this in a strange way, but as a work partner and a human being, I liked Kimika."
Kimika was a cheerful, fun-loving person, who also had a serious side when they were working together. They would often meet up before and after work too, to talk and to eat together. Kimika used to be a hairdresser before he joined Sara-ya and mentioned that he enjoyed making people beautiful, almost as if a person is 'reborn' after getting a new haircut. Kimika mentioned that he wished he could be reborn too, but back then Ruu did not really understand the meaning of these words. Looking back at it now, Ruu realizes that there were so many hints that something was not right...
Some time after this, Kimika called him in the middle of the night. At first, Ruu thought someone called the wrong number, but after listening closely he realized it was Kimika's voice, wishing for his own death. After this, Ruu learned that Kimika was taken to the hospital after overdosing on sleeping pills. Ruu realizes that Kimika probably called him as a final cry for help.
The story then switches to Kimika's perspective. A bright and cheerful person, that is how people would describe him, which was not wrong, because that is what he pretended to be. Of course, it was not all lies, Kimika truly wished he could be happy. He grew up with three older sisters who were all very beautiful and talented. Compared to them, Kimika was a very ordinary person. Because his sisters were always praised, they were never punished when they used Kimika as a slave or toy, even sexually assaulting him sometimes. Back then Kimika didn't know it was bad, he was just happy that they would spend any time with him.
When he was 11 years old, his oldest sister vanished. A month later, her body was found in the mountains. A suicide note was found near her body, apologizing for not being able to meet her parents' expectations. One year later, his second sister passed away after repeatedly overdosing on sleeping pills. Kimika's family stopped talking to each other, unable to deal with the situation. Shortly after this, the third sister also disappeared. The police eventually found her alive, however, she seemed like a completely different person after joining a religious group. She didn't talk to her parents and brother anymore and locked herself up in her room every day. One day, she texted Kimika to come to her room.
"When I entered the room, my sister was standing on a chair with a belt around her neck, tied to the curtain rod."
She smiled and asked Kimika to remove the chair, explaining that she wanted to die so she could be reborn. Kimika, unable to deny her wish, did what his sister wanted. Kimika started wondering what would happen after death and if they would really be reborn. His sisters were very talented and had no other reason to die, so he assumed it must be true.
"Just like the other two, I wonder if death isn't something they fear, but something they yearn for. If possible, I want to be reborn too."
After graduating high school, he studied to become a hairdresser and eventually moved to Shinkoumi, mostly because he wanted to get away from his parents' house. Shinkoumi was a place where nobody would come after him. Even though he tried to distance himself from his past, he always felt like he couldn't truly be happy. Being alone made him very uncomfortable, so he would often stay with (sex) friends or even strangers. One day one of his friends half-jokingly sent him the Sara-ya recruitment ad, but Kimika, still obsessed with the concept of people taking their own lives, became interested in the job. This is where he met Ruu, and later Shiro and Baku. He was a bit excited to meet someone like Shiro who also wanted to die. Kimika also wanted to openly talk about death like Shiro did, so he decided to create a social media account. Before he knew it, he made many friends online who all shared the same mindset as him, agreeing death is the only way to escape from suffering. This is when Hare's Nest was created.
Members of Hare’s Nest focused on overcoming their fear of death and would usually report their daily accomplishments. Kimika tried to do the same and was proud of his group members. Eventually, the first individuals in the group started taking their own lives. Until then, Hare's Nest was mostly a private group, but after the first two suicides it started attracting attention online. After that, the number of deaths gradually increased and the criticism from outside groups grew. At that time, Kimika thought death was the only way to end suffering and didn’t understand what he was doing wrong. He also realized that Shiro joined the group and was surprised when he openly shared these details with him. Kimika decided that it must be fate, finally he would be able to die together with someone.
After that it switches back to Ruu's perspective. Shortly after the 'Hare's Nest incident', Kimika was sentenced to two years in prison. The sentence was shorter than expected because there was no evidence of intimidation or a detailed planning of the attack. Another reason for this was probably because Kimika's lawyer worked for the Takasato-gumi. It was Eiji who introduced them to each other. Ruu frequently visited Kimika in prison, but during the first visits Kimika did not look him in the eye and barely spoke to him. He didn't understand why Ruu kept visiting him, after all he was a criminal who encouraged people to take their lives and who almost killed one of their friends. He also didn’t understand why Ruu still cared about him, they were only work partners after all. To Ruu however, Kimika was never just a work partner, but someone he genuinely considered a friend. Ruu regrets not noticing Kimika's loneliness and still wants to be with Kimika after he gets released from prison. Kimika still has a hard time trusting others because of his childhood, but somewhere deep in his heart he wants to trust him. Ruu hopes that some day, him and Kimika will be able to laugh together again, just like they used to.
_____________________________________________
Some extra notes
The name of the group is simply called Hare’s Nest because Kimika has a pet rabbit.
His username online is Himalaya, referring to the Himalayan rabbit, said to be the oldest rabbit breed. His own rabbit is also a Himalayan rabbit.
Members of Hare’s Nest calls themselves ‘leveret’, a term used to describe a young hare. If you’ve read the Clean Dishes manga you probably also know it’s the name of the manga…!
The drama CD is a continuation of this, so definitely listen to that if you can! Especially if you like Ruu and Kimima as a pairing. ;)
Nitro Chiral recently announced that they will probably not create any new content for April Fools’ in the future. I remember really looking forward to this every year, so I was a bit sad to hear that…! They mentioned that they might change this decision again some day, so we will just have to wait and see… To remember all of the fun jokes they’ve created throughout the years I wanted to make a fun compilation of all their previous April Fools’ jokes (or at least the ones I remember and took screenshots of). Maybe someone already posted something similar, but I had a lot of fun looking at these old pictures again!
I finally purchased some of the epilogues and I’m really enjoying them so far! Be aware that they take place after the game’s good end, so if you haven’t played yet I recommend reading my other blog posts first which summarize the game’s plot and endings. The first one I read was Epilogue 3 because I wanted to know more about Shiro’s backstory, but you can read them in any order you want.
There’s some dark content in these epilogues too so please check Slow Damage’s content warnings if there’s something you might not want to see. Also English isn’t my first language so I apologize for any mistakes.
