A serial killer from Fuyuki City. He moves around a lot and doesn't have any real friends because no one can truly understand him (not that he can understand them either). He was involved in a magical war back home, but he was killed. He doesn't remember all the details, unfortunately. Ryuunosuke really misses Caster but he's decided he's going to go with Tsukiyama to Tokyo once they get out of here.

Current status: ENGAGED TO TSUKIYAMA. This week was also a lot better and this is probably what the first week felt like for people who weren't emotionally dead inside!! Except now everyone is friends and getting along really well and it's super cute. Let's go beat the mastermind together!!

Greatest cool. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Dave sounds like he's from a really interesting world. Ryuunosuke can't decide of interesting means cool or not. Dave is his litmus test for how weird something is. Dave seems like a pretty nice guy, but he's been messed up by all the deaths so far. Ryuunosuke's not sure how long it'll take before Dave cracks, but it won't be pretty when he finally does.

Well, looks like he was right. Dave's lost his space soldier dads and Meridiana. Surprisingly, Dave has turned things around and instead of falling into despair. He's working very hard to get in contact with the ghosts and help everyone out. It's admirable, actually. Ryuunosuke's opinion of Dave has definitely improved this week!

Dave was absolutely vital during this trial. He did so much to help everyone and even afterwards he continues to help bond the group together. Ryuunosuke is really glad that Dave is here. Thanks for doing everything you can to help after all you've been through.

Dave did a great job with the party and played a stupidly sappy slow song for Ryuunosuke so!! Dave's definitely been a really good friend and Ryuunosuke's really glad he's gotten to know him so well! C'MON DAVE LET'S GO BEAT THE EVIL TWISTED THINGS TOGETHER. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

A nice, polite dog who is from a world full of humanoid animals. Isabelle is cheerful and helpful and normally Ryuunosuke has no issues with her. Normally. After the second trial however, he started to find her annoying. Anyone who tries to keep fights from happening is never good in his opinion, and the constant niceness is wearing him down. He's kind of worried he's going to snap at her during one of the investigations and he'll have to explain himself... She can be pretty useful when she's investigating things that aren't bodies, at least!

Ryuunosuke's opinion of Isabelle skyrocketed after the sixth trial. Not only did she yell at Monobear, she stood up for Ryuunosuke after hearing his secret. He's really touched by that and she tried to stop him from attacking Monobear and. wow. this girl, okay. She did such a good job and he's really touched, emotions are hard.

Isabelle has been super helpful and friendly and honestly, Ryuunosuke's not sure how well he would have handled everything if she hadn't been there. She's been supporting everyone from the very beginning! Without her, they probably would have splintered long ago. Thanks for everything, Isabelle! NOW LET'S GO KICK SOME MASTERMIND BUTT!! ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Allison is a cute girl who has taught Ryuunosuke some things about the modern world, like 3D Pinball! He's quite fond of her, but after learning some moves from her, he's also very suspicious about what sort of "fighting" she does. It's not anything to worry too much about though, right? She was the one who made him realize that he's in love with Tsukiyama, which was super unfortunate. He also broke down in front of her - he's never slipped up like that before and it won't happen again. All things considered though, he really likes her. She tried to help with Maya's body during the third investigation which was oddly touching for some reason.

He told her about his "tragic backstory" which is 99% lies and 1% murder. For some strange reason he kind of felt close to her while talking about it though. It was weird. Let's not do that again. She's beginning to get him to feel things and she's not Tsukiyama. This is very concerning.

Ryuunosuke snapped at her during the fifth trial and showed his true colors by choosing to stick by Tsukiyama even after the reveal. It wasn't much of a reveal for him of course, but choosing the person who manipulated and got Meridiana killed really didn't win Ryuunosuke any points. He felt a bit bad about potentially losing Allie's friendship, and after they talked on Sunday he figured there wouldn't be any saving it.

Things seem to be going better now though, since they talked through things and are working themselves out. Ryuunosuke is still worried about what will happen after she knows the truth about him but for right now things are okay. Maybe they'll be okay for a little longer.

Allie's determination and strength during the sixth trial was admirable. She was framed by Monobear and no one accused her of it, but going through that must have been difficult. She'll be alright though, she's very strong. Ryuunosuke is still a little worried about how she'll handle his... everything, but things probably aren't going to go as badly as he initially thought they would.

There's really no reason for Allie to continue supporting him, but Allie's an amazing person who actually genuinely likes Ryuunosuke?? He's not sure how to feel about that, but he's very glad to have her in his life. There's no way to say "you're mine" without sounding creepy as hell, but you'd better believe he will do everything in his power to protect fellow remaining ginger disaster his little not sister. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

A space soldier, probably. He's from the future and Ryuunosuke doesn't like to think about it. Tucker is very strong; he helped Ryuunosuke lift and flip Wario's body during the first investigation. That's definitely something to look out for. He doesn't dislike Tucker, but he doesn't know him at all. Dead now. At least he was kind of hot! 10/10 hottest dead body so far!!! I AM SO SORRY ★★★★★★★★★★

Ryuunosuke didn't have too many thoughts on Futo before the second trial. Sure, she's from the past and speaks in an odd manner, but she always seemed stand-offish to him. During the second trial she ended up getting in a fight with Silver and Tsukiyama, but Ryuunosuke actually thought that was pretty cool. She looked like she was going to literally pick a fight so he thinks getting to know her better might be a good idea. She didn't stop him from glitterbombing the pool, so that's pretty cool.

In the sixth trial Futo not only terrorized Monobear on his throne, she also stood beside Ryuunosuke and revealed her secrets. He still doesn't know her very well, but that alone was enough to get him to like her a lot. The Monobear thing helped a lot though, he's very fond of shenanigans.

Futo seems pretty fond of teasing him, but Ryuunosuke is totally fine with this. C'MON GRANDMA LET'S FINISH THIS THING!! ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Like Ryuunosuke, Ryoji is a bastion of positivity. He's friendly and cheerful and he tries to keep everyone's spirits up. The only difference here is that Ryoji isn't evil. Probably. That said, Ryuunosuke actually really likes Ryoji - he reminds him of himself a bit! Except sane. He taught Ryuunosuke about DDR and that was a terrible mistake. Ryoji definitely saw him acting weird at the trial, but things seem to have smoothed over by Wednesday. Ryoji's still his usual cheerful self though, which is beginning to get worrying. Ryoji's definitely hiding something... but what could it be? He'd better not be a serial killer too!!

Ryoji's really good to talk to when Ryuunosuke can't get himself to act properly; Ryoji always manages to lighten the mood. Ryuunosuke is really, really thankful for that.

After talking to Ryoji on Sunday, Ryuunosuke has decided he's protecting this stupid kid forever. Ryoji isn't human and it sounds like things haven't been easy for him. He's still kind and compassionate and understanding and honestly, Ryuunosuke will fight anyone who tries to mess with Ryoji. Not that he'd be able to do anything because he's a goddamn noodle. Ryoji has watched Ryuunosuke break down twice in the span of two days and never judged him for it and honestly, Ryuunosuke really doesn't want Ryoji to find out the truth. Losing Ryoji's friendship would be emotionally devastating for reasons that basically boil down to "but you were nice to me" and this is kind of depressing.

Silver's death really hurt all of them, but Ryoji was definitely in no state to handle it. Ryuunosuke spent almost all of the sixth trial holding Ryoji's hand because he's a dumbass who doesn't know how to affection. He's still worried about Ryoji, but he's certain Allie and Dave will be there to help Ryoji out. They're all working together and no one is getting left behind.

Ryoji's been wonderful to Ryuunosuke and he's decided he's adopting this child. You're his little brother now, sorry about that. FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH HE LIKES YOU A LOT MORE THAN HIS OWN FAMILY, UH. Ryoji is also his, but there's no way to say that without sounding weird. He will fight for this stupid teenager, okay. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

After a very awkward first meeting, Ryuunosuke avoided Silver for awhile. He didn't want to give off the wrong impression again, but eventually he sought out Silver and found out that he's just a kid. He's kinda cute, but why would you ever want to drink spicy juice?? Silver's from a world with awesome creatures and he's very excited about Pokémon Trading. It's pretty cute, even if Ryuunosuke doesn't understand what Silver's talking about. Silver was just as bloodthirsty as Tsukiyama and Ryuunosuke, so he's wondering if there's more to this kid than he first thought. Either way, good job Silver!! They also worked together to take Tsukiyama down in a totally epic battle of wits... or something like that. Silver's pretty good at finding things that catch people off guard. He'll have to keep an eye on that.

He told Silver about his dead family, but Silver thought to question Ryuunosuke's previous statements, so he's going to have to be careful about that. Even though that's something to look out for, he's pretty pleased that Silver continues to question things. It's really weird. Can he just go back to not feeling anything, because that was a million times easier.

Silver wanted to support Tsukiyama even after he heard about the trial. Ryuunosuke was horribly offended after Silver insulted his intelligence, but ultimately he didn't punch Silver in the ribs so that's probably a victory for everyone. He's forgiven Silver for that and things seem to be okay again. Ryuunosuke told Silver that his secret for this week's motive is something horrible that will probably turn everyone against him, which is the closest he's gotten to actually admitting it. He's terrified that this will be the week no one dies and he'll be outed to everyone... but Silver said he'd be there. Ryuunosuke knows Silver won't want anything to do with him after this is revealed, but it's a very nice thought.

Silver killed himself to prevent their secrets from getting out. He was sick of feeling useless and took a third option to prevent Monobear from manipulating them into killing one another. And then Monobear fucked it up anyway. No one bought that Allie had done it though and instead everyone turned on the bear. Hopefully that trial was a good send-off, Silver. Ryuunosuke is both strangely touched by what Silver did and horribly torn up about it. He doesn't understand why he feels kinda-sorta guilty. He didn't do anything and this was Silver's choice. But still...

When the ghosts are all brought back to life he's going to hug this stupid child forever and then maybe punch him in the ribs. ★★★★★★★★★★

Kayneth can be awkward as hell, but he seems like a genuinely nice person. He tries, that has to count for something. Ryuunosuke actually feels kind of bad for him since he doesn't seem to get how to handle people. He totally supports electing Kayneth as the new leader, though that's probably not something you can just elect people for... He got a hand out of the Monomono Machine. Why. Kayneth is also from the same world as Ryuunosuke and is involved in the Holy Grail War. He doesn't have the Command Seals though...

So it turns out that the hand belonged to Kayneth's fiancee and he wanted to go back and save her. Which meant killing and getting away with it. Kayneth put up a magnificent fight during the trial and Ryuunosuke is so pleased with him. He's kind of sad Kayneth's dead now that he knows just how awesome this guy was. Despite everything he said, Ryuunosuke genuinely likes this jerk and respects him for having the balls to kill two people and think he'd get away with it. YOU TRIED, SIR WALNUT.

It's taken him awhile to realize it, but Ryuunosuke has actually been sort of messed up by Kayneth's death. Not the actual death, that was pretty cool. But for some reason he's bothered by the fact that Kayneth was so kind to him before everything went to shit in the third trial. Seeing Kayneth's memorial on the fifth floor messed with Ryuunosuke's head, and not just because he was shot and killed by (presumably) the same asshole who fucked with Kayneth and his fianceé. He successfully summoned Kayneth's ghost because... reasons. (He kind of wanted some closure, not that he'll admit that.) Kayneth threw a book at his head and now he's in love. ★★★★★★★★★★

Duster is a pretty nice guy and apparently Ryuunosuke is his first friend. ...Yeah. He doesn't know how he feels about that, but he does like talking with Duster. It sounds like Duster's world is pretty cool, though Ryuunosuke's not sure how he feels about burping ghosts. Duster was there when Ryuunosuke fell down the stairs and helped him out, so he does appreciate that. It definitely wasn't one of his finest moments though...

Duster was responsible for killing Tucker, though he was suffering from hallucinations. Ryuunosuke was responsible for being That Guy and accusing Duster. He was very cold about it and while he doesn't feel bad, he is kind of sorry that it happened.

...Ryuunosuke understands what happened during the trial now. He really wishes he didn't. He's still not really sorry but... that sucked. ★★★★★★★★★★

Kureha was a pretty cute girl, but Ryuunosuke hadn't talked to her too much before the second trial. They had to vote for her because in Monobear's world, she was responsible for Harvey's death. Ryuunosuke's pretty annoyed that Kureha took them all to trial when she could have just told them what happened. ★★★★★★★★★★

Like Ryoji, Haruka is cheerful and vibrant, though she's kind of hard to keep up with sometimes. She's shown other sides before, but she seems to bounce back pretty quickly, which Ryuunosuke appreciates. He really likes her and hopes that the murders and executions don't get her too down. She's apparently looped the same day repeatedly? Maybe her regained memory next week will help shed some light on that. He'd like to learn more about her.

Since he was so harsh to Duster during the trial, Ryuunosuke is pretty sure he's severed any chance he had of befriending Haruka. Sorry about that... He still likes her though, but he's not going to approach her after that mess. She approached him and things seem to be going better now! They're joking around at least, which is always good!

HAHAHA WELL GUESS WHAT that's probably ruined forever since he sided with Tsukiyama. Ryuunosuke doesn't feel guilty about that and he'll always choose Tsukiyama above everyone else, but at the same time he's kind of bothered by the fact that things can't go back to the way they were. Sorry, Haruka. You're probably better off without dealing with him anyway.

...Well, things seem to be doing better after the sheer amount of stupidity that was caused by the Underwearpocalypse. He's still not sure if Haruka is okay with him, but at least she was okay laughing at his misery?

Haruka sided with him when Monobear tried to reveal his secret. She even said that it wasn't surprising! Don't be rude, Haruka. Still, the fact that she opened up about her awful family life because of what Monobear did was really touching. She might not like him or want to tolerate him, but Ryuunosuke definitely likes her.

She seems willing to put up with him now despite the everything. This is definitely good! Haruka is a great person and Ryuunosuke is really glad they've settled back into the "be as aggressively weird as possible" norm. Thanks for being such a ray of sunshine, Haruka. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Ryuunosuke hasn't spoken very much with Meridiana, but after the second trial he can't help but think she's got her priorities in exactly the wrong order. Proving your innocence should always be more important than keeping your sleeves down. He suspects there's more to her than she's letting on, but at this point he's getting suspicious of everyone, so...

Meridiana was the true culprit of case 5. She didn't know it but it came to light eventually. Ryuunosuke feels nothing towards her. He's kind of angry at everyone else who is acting like she's a saint though, because she did drain a guy of all his blood regardless of her reasons. Also zombies. Why zombies. ★★★★★★★★★★

Another person Ryuunosuke didn't speak to very often, Harvey was actually a pretty great guy. He made a good impact on pretty much everyone and Ryuunosuke did appreciate having him around. Too bad he took a fall down a flight of stairs and kickstarted the second trial madness.

Also he's hot. He brought a gun to a magic fight. That's super sexy!!! Also Tsukiyama apparently has the biggest crush on him so that's hilarious. ★★★★★★★★★★

Another space soldier! Ryuunosuke doesn't know much about Wash, but he does know that teaching a bunch of people in a murderhotel how to throw knives was a dumb idea. That's coloring his opinion of Wash pretty badly. Wash did offer to teach him self-defense though, so at least there's that. And now Wash is dead and he was killed by Meridiana even though Tsukiyama did all the work. It's kind of a mess. ★★★★★★★★★★

Ryuunosuke didn't know Maya very well, but she seemed nice enough. She expressed interest in learning Chinese, which kind of worried Ryuunosuke. Despite this concern he does like her and she seems like a good person to befriend. TOO LATE, SHE'S DEAD. ★★★★★★★★★★

Ryuunosuke didn't speak much to Ulysses. During the first investigation Ulysses was helping out in the laundry room and he seemed to have no issues being around a body. That was a bit worrying in Ryuunosuke's opinion, so he was going to keep an eye on Ulysses. HE'S DEAD NOW. ★★★★★★★★★★

Tsukiyama is the greatest cool. No one else can even compare. Ryuunosuke genuinely likes Tsukiyama - he's Ryuunosuke's first real friend and the only person who has ever been able to accept Ryuunosuke for who he is and be okay with the terrible things he does. It means so much to him. Tsukiyama's also awesome in general - his fashion sense is great, he's very passionate, and he's hot. That's totally important. 10/10 would totally date. Tsukiyama has also offered to have Ryuunosuke come with him back to Tokyo once all this is over. Ryuunosuke accepted the offer without hesitation.

Tsukiyama's making him feel a lot of things and he's not sure if he likes it. Maybe?? They're not all bad feelings, at least... It turns out that he's in love with Tsukiyama. It would explain the creepy levels of obsession. He's confessed and now that that's out in the open he feels much better. He's just worried that this might get in the way of things. He can't afford to get distracted now.

He's getting really worried about Tsukiyama. He'd better not die. If Tsukiyama dies, Ryuunosuke's not sure what he'll do.

During the fourth trial Ryuunosuke was pretty vicious, but Tsukiyama understood what everyone else was going through. This led to Ryuunosuke being mad and saying something horrible to Tsukiyama. Ryuunosuke is convinced that Tsukiyama won't want anything to do with him anymore, but he's not going to give up just yet. He's so terrified of losing Tsukiyama, he definitely can't lose him because of his own stupidity.

Well, it looks like his worries were for nothing! Tsukiyama seems to have forgiven him and they've both been incredibly manic the past week. They're doing well and Ryuunosuke hasn't been this happy in awhile.

JUST FUCK HIM UP. Tsukiyama was the mastermind behind case 5, but he had to do it in order to eat. Ryuunosuke understands that. He's calmed down a lot since then and can look at it and laugh because that was brilliant. It worked out wonderfully, even if it did fuck Tsukiyama up a lot in the process.

Things are going great this week. They've been on three really dumb dates, summoned Kayneth's ghost, and ended up aggressively flirting surrounded by underwear. Ryuunosuke loves every minute of it, but it's getting harder and harder to ignore the feelings. He's so totally in love with Tsukiyama, it's kind of embarrassing. Also Tsukiyama is scared of ghosts and this is literally the cutest thing!!

Tsukiyama's calling him "Ryuunosuke" now which is kind of the most touching thing ever. He also offered to let Ryuunosuke borrow his last name BUT IT WASN'T A MARRIAGE PROPOSAL. Damn.

The sixth trial was a complete shitshow. Silver died and it's horribly messed Tsukiyama up... but at the same time Tsukiyama did confess his love so. That's a thing. That's definitely a thing and Ryuunosuke is never going to leave this man alone ever again. He's sick of watching Tsukiyama suffer so he'll do everything in his power to prevent anything from hurting Tsukiyama ever again. Neither of them will ever be alone because they have each other. Ryuunosuke is Tsukiyama's and Tsukiyama is Ryuunosuke's.

SO GUESS WHO'S GETTING MARRIED??? Every time Ryuunosuke thinks he can't possibly love Tsukiyama any more, he's proven horribly wrong. He's really excited to get out of here and go back to Tokyo with Tsukiyama because they're going to have a hella cool wedding!! Also ghouls. Also not being around humans anymore. There's so much to look forward to, but mostly he's excited to spend the rest of his life with someone who makes him feel so alive.

Thanks for everything, Shuu. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Wario was the sort of man that you just sort of had to listen to. There was no controlling him. Ryuunosuke wasn't too fond of being talked down to constantly, but Wario was pretty cool otherwise. His death didn't bother Ryuunosuke, but he gets pretty irritated when people talk badly about Wario. Sure, he wasn't the most popular guy, but can you stop being an asshole about him? Who knows, maybe he could have been a good friend!! (At the very least he would have been really fun to watch!) ★★★★★★★★★★

Rufioh and Ryuunosuke got along pretty well when they first met. Rufioh's world sounded really cool and he even admitted that he wasn't sure why he looked older than he thought he was. Everything seemed like it would end up okay, but then Rufioh was executed for killing Wario. Ryuunosuke's not too mad about that, but he is mad that Rufioh's execution was boring. ★★★★★★★★★★

The one person in the hotel Ryuunosuke can't decide how he feels about-- well, he's not exactly a person. On the one hand, Monobear is keeping them trapped in here and will execute anyone who kills and doesn't get away with it, even if the "murderer" didn't actually murder anyone. On the other hand, Monobear can explode and he executes people. So. He might be kinda cool. Ryuunosuke was weirdly bothered by the fact that Monobear hadn't seen any movies and has made it his job to try to befriend the bear. It's not all genuine, but he's not entirely upset with Monobear either. After Monobear executed Kayneth in the most spectacular way possible, Ryuunosuke's feeling a lot more generous towards the bear. You've got potential, sir. Keep up the good work!!

HAHAHA JUST KIDDING that motive is awful and you should feel awful. Why would you poison gummy bears, you jerk. His anger at Monobear has been building since the beginning and now he's completely furious. He's not mad about Duster's execution (though it could have been better in his esteemed opinion) but he's mad because Monobear dragged him into this. Ryuunosuke has changed a lot in here and he's blaming it all on the bear.

GET FUCKED MONOBEAR. Trying to throw him under the bus is the final straw; he's going to walk over the Mastermind's corpse just like Silver would have wanted. ★★★★★★★★★★
