Introduction (Page 1)
???
This is an airport, right? So...those things over there must be... ...Airplanes? Couldn't we use those planes to escape this island?
Nah, that's impossible. If they were damaged, I could fix 'em, but it looks like these planes are just for show...
Just for show...?
The engines have been completely removed. Nothing I can do about that.
...Completely removed? Whoever brought us to this island must have also done that...right? The same person who's controlling that stuffed animal, Usami.
But...who is doing this? And why did they bring us to this island in the first place? And...how did they do it? The more I think about it... The less sense it makes.
Oh yeah, that reminds me... You and me haven't been introduced yet, right?
Name's Kazuichi Soda. I'm the Ultimate Mechanic. Nice to meet ya.
As expected of someone called the Ultimate Mechanic, Kazuichi is a savant when it comes to fixing machines. If he says it's impossible to fix this plane, it's truly beyond repair.
Even so...to actually remove the engine, whoever's keeping us here must've planned this to a T.
You think so too, huh... Doesn't that seem pretty strange to you?
Yeah, it's pretty strange, but I think it's an acceptable level of strange, y'know?
...Huh?
Well, think about it... It's no like we're being forced to do something dangerous or anything...
That was mentioned in the safety precautions for this school trip. Remember? The school trip guidelines written in the e-Handbook? It looks like we're being kept safe, so why wouldn't this be like any other school trip?
There's nothing dangerous on this island... Spend these peaceful and relaxing days nourishing hope... Just as Usami said earlier It seems these rules are in place to help us do that...
Are you saying you believe what that thing told us? She forced us to come here, you know!?
Don't be such a pessimist... You should look at this situation with a bit more hope, you know? Optimism is essential for people to live satisfied lives.
Well, I guess it's okay if we just enjoy our vacation and see how the whole thing plays out, right?
Heh-heh! If you stare closely at that strange-lookin' bunny girl, she might start lookin' pretty cute!
I'm actually jealous of how carefree he's being right now

Invite Kazuichi to hang out
We're on a tropical island, y'know? Surrounded by a blue sea, y'know? And there's plenty of ladies here, too. So why do we have to be involved in all this killing nonsense?
Although Kazuichi's intentions are probably not pure, I agree with what he is saying. If this was a normal school trip, it would've been really fun...
Man, and here I thought I was finally going to go on a school trip for the very first time.
First time...? Didn't you go on one during middle school?
I was supposed to...but I ditched it. I, um, faked being sick and stayed home.
Uh, well, I had a lot of reasons, but...my family is really poor. My classmates were pretty much a bunch of boring turds so I was like, "Who cares if I don't go to school?"
But my old man found out later and beat the crap outta me.
Well, obviously a parent would be made about that. But...I sometimes got yelled at for ditching school events during elementary and middle school, too...
My damn old man... He knew better than anyone that we didn't have any money...
Ah, we run a bike shop at my place but it's seriously hard to sell bicycles these days. The only customers we get now just need a flat tire fixed or air pumped.
But yeah, despite that, I'm the genius mechanic of my family! I can take a look if a bike or car needs fixing, and I can fix anything from kids toys to household appliances!
Wow...that's pretty amazing.
Well, I've been surrounded by junk and tools ever since I was born. So I just have a habit of taking things apart and putting them back together!
I see...so that's the environment the Ultimate Mechanic was raised in.
My old man is just hopeless though, so I'm always the one who's helping out at the shop... In fact...to tell you the truth, I was really excited when we first arrived at this island. Everyone here has pretty colorful personalities, but they all seem like interesting people...
I was really looking forward to enjoying my youthful days here... ...Until all this crap happened.
Dammit...it's my dream, y'know? I've always wanted to go on a trip with my friends and stuff.
Oh wait, we're not close enough yet to call each other friends, huh?
Hmm, I don't know when people suddenly decide they're friends or not... But since we seem to have the same goal, maybe we can at least call each other comrades
Comrades, huh...?
Hehe...that sounds pretty awesome. I'm looking forward to working with ya, comrade!
Kazuichi extended his hand and I gripped it
I tried to let go...but for some reason, Kazuichi was glaring at me and...
...So Hajime, who are you aiming for?
Wh-What are you talking about?
Isn't it obvious? I'm talking about the ladies! Depending on your answer...the alarm clock in your room may be modified into a time bomb.
If you have time to make something like that...you should spend it actually being productive. ...It's pretty amazing that he's able to think about that kind of stuff at a time like this.
But...despite his looks, Kazuichi seems like a pretty normal guy... I learned a little bit about Kazuichi today.

Invite Kazuichi to hang out
Agh, jeez... Why aren't there any vehicles with engines on this damn island!? At this rate, I'll take anything! A go-cart, RC toys, a baby carriage! Just let me tinker with something!
Baby carriages, don't have engines...
There's nothing I can't disassemble, so I took apart the alarm clock inside my room. And when I did that...I couldn't put it back together.
Oh...so there are times when even the Ultimate Mechanic can't even fix something.
Of course, that sort of thing happens to me all the time. One time I was tinkering around without thinking and before I realized it, I made some kind of car thing.
For some reason...the things I fix always end up being some kind of vehicle
I don't understand that at all...
Ah, I don't mind messing around with the frame or connecting the electrical equipment...
But guys definitely need something with a rumble and some bam bam bam! Hey Hajime, you know what I'm talking about, right? You know what I really want right now!
Umm... Kazuichi is probably talking about a...
Hair dryer
Are you talking about a hair dryer?
That's right, that thing gets warm and goes roaaaaaar...
You should've realized that before you said anything...
Refrigerator
You're talking about a refrigerator, right?
That's right, that rumbling in your stomach! Rumble rumble rumble...
Wait, no, that totally doesn't have any bam bam bams!
...Well, obviously.
Engine
You're talking about an engine, right? That's what you want to mess around with...?
That's right, that's exactly it! Disassemble, reassemble, see how it goes... Disassemble, reassemble, see how it goes... Doing that over and over gets my brain moving!
*Sigh...* I really miss the smell of oil... You're right, I haven't really smelled anything like that since we came to this island.
But even if there was a car here, you couldn't drive it since you don't have a driver's license, right?
There's no way I'd do something annoying like that. I'd just get motion sickness anyway.
I just...really like the feeling of an engine running. I like all kinds of machines, but vehicles are definitely the best of the best. After all, they look so awesome!
Man, I really want to go home soon and start working on my bike again!
Oh...you're even making a bike, huh...
My dream machine is seriously awesome, y'know? According to my calculations, it has a top speed of 585mph.
Man, I really miss tinkering with that thing...
Oh, but it obviously wouldn't be street legal. And since I get motion sickness, I can't ride it anyway.
What's the use of making a ride that you can't even use? I don't understand that at all.

Invite Kazuichi to hang out
Hey Hajime, do you have a dream for the future or something?
Hmmm...I've never really thought about it. Maybe I've forgotten what it was...
How about you? Do you have one?
Well, you know...sort of. Since I'm a mechanic... There's not much a guy like me can do besides tinker with machines. So if I'm gonna reach for the stars, then "that's" the only one for me...
...Oh, never mind. Don't even think about it. You'll just laugh. You'll definitely laugh at me.
See, I told you! Your face is totally giving it away!
I-I'm making a face...?
Aaargh! Don't you get it?
I mean...if I'm talking about the best machine, then I'm obviously talking about "that!" ...Just don't even think about it! Forget about it already!
Does he want me to guess or not...?
Um...the thing Kazuichi probably wants to talk about is...
A jet plane
I got it! You're talking about a jet plane!
Jet planes are so sweet... Fighter jets are totally fascinating, too!
But there's something much bigger and faster than that, right!?
Then...
A train
Is it a train?
A train, huh... You can definitely stuff one of those with dreams...
But there's something much bigger and faster than that, right!?
Then...
A rocket ship
Could it be...a rocket ship?
L-Laugh all you want! I don't care!
Why would I laugh...? That sounds amazing.
S-Seriously...?
I-I see... Haha...I see, I see...
...Don't you think rockets are amazing!? They're the biggest and the fastest! They're at the very top of the vehicle food chain!
But still...there's just one thing I'm worried about. No matter how hard I work to make such an awesome machine... There's no way I can give a girl a ride in one...
Yeah...if you get motion sickness in a car, you'd have a really bad time inside a rocket.
But a fantasy like that is very you, I guess. If you ever overcome your motion sickness, I can totally see you riding a motorcycle with a girl... You'd probably hang out with a bunch of delinquents and get into all kinds of trouble, too.
... So you think so too... I mean, it's normal...to think like that...
Kazuichi...? Did something happen all of a sudden?
...It's nothing I just remembered something I need to do, so...later.
For some reason, Kazuichi abruptly walked away... I don't really know...why his attitude changed.

Invite Kazuichi to hang out
*Sigh...* Somehow I'm already losing confidence in myself... ...Well, it's not like I had any confidence to begin with. Dammit, why did this have to happen...? I wanna go home already...
Kazuichi seems pretty depressed, both physically and mentally...
Get ahold of yourself. I'm sure there must be some way. C'mon, you know what they: "Where there's a will, there's a way," right...?
H-Hajime...
Isn't that...kind of lame?
I-It's your fault for complaining!
Well, that's true. Sorry.
...All right, let's get pumped up and look for a way to escape!
He sure recovers quickly...
But still, all the machines here who have engines like airplanes and ships...they're no good. We might as well put pedals on the ship and pedal boat off this island. We could even make it swan-shaped, too.
What do you mean "might as well"...?
Ah, that reminds me... I would get yelled at a lot for modifying various things at school or at home. My greatest invention was attaching an engine to the machine that draws chalk lines on the soccer field!
But...it escaped through the school entrance at full speed, without curving or stopping.
Obviously you'd be yelled at for that...
Hey Hajime, if... if by chance...
What if...it's impossible? That Monokuma bastard's rule is that only one person is able to escape...
Th-That rule doesn't matter! We...will never kill someone... It's that simple, right?
That's true, but... Can you really believe that nobody here will ever betray us...?
If you start doubting now, you'll never stop... They want you to feel like this.
W-Well, obviously but...
Humans are creatures that betray each other, y'know... I-If they aren't, then...
K-Kazuichi...? What does that mean...?
... S-Sorry... Let me...think about it alone...
After saying that...Kazuichi briskly walked away... I feel like he's worried about something else. But...I guess for now I should just wait until Kazuichi feels comfortable talking to me about it...

Invite Kazuichi to hang out
Ah, um, Hajime... About that thing from before... ... Hey, let's go somewhere else.
After he said that, Kazuichi walked away by himself... I ran after Kazuichi until I arrived at the beach.
... Fwooooo... Haaaaaah...
...What are you doing?
Can't you see!? I'm breathing deeply!
I-I gotta prepare myself for l-lots of reasons, y'know! ...
...All right, I'm ready. Come at me, bro.
No, hold on... I don't really understand what's going on at all.
Dumbass! Isn't it obvious!? There's only one thing for two men to do when they come to the beach!
Wh-What...?
Hmm, what can two men do at the beach...?
Date
I see... this is a date, huh.
That's right. Two people having fun at the beach will eventually get close to each other, and then...
...Wait, you and me!? What'll happen if I dream about that tonight!?
I just wanted to lighten the mood a little...
Hit on girls
I know. Hit on girls, right?
That's right. At such an open tropical beach you can run full steam ahead toward all the older ladies...
...Wait, what the hell!? There are no older ladies here in the first place!
You're so funny...
Fist fight
Are you...talking about a fist fight?
...Not exactly. You're going to punch yourself.
Huh?
If you don't, my mind won't be settled! It's like I feel lost or something... You believe in me, but I can't believe in you at all... It's like...I betrayed you or something.
Kazuichi...
Hey...to be honest, I'm wearing contacts.
What is this now...?
It's not like my hair is this color because I wanted to look like this... I wasn't really sure what I wanted so I just tried a few things and it ended up like this.
I was always...a weak, cowardly kid. All I ever did was study and tinker with machines. So...I always believed that everyone who talked to me was a nice person. So even if I was betrayed or lied to, I always believed they had a good reason for it. That's what I always believed...all because I was too scared to admit it.
The Kazuichi I know is a confident, happy-go-lucky guy who gets a little carried away sometimes... But maybe he's just been pretending to be like that.
When I was in middle school, there was this guy I thought was my best friend. We always did everything together, and I could talk to him about anything. But one time...I let him cheat off my test because he begged me for help. But we got caught...
Till the very end, he insisted that I was the one who willingly gave him the answers. But as long as he didn't get punished...I really didn't mind sharing my answers with him at all.
But ever since that happened...he kept avoiding me. I wonder why...? It's not like I really cared... Maybe...he felt guilty. He probably couldn't stand it.
Yeah...now that I'm older, I feel like I understand him a little. But at the time, I was fed up with everything. So I decided to get rid of all of it, including my looks. And when that happened...everyone who used to hang around me started keeping their distance... And punkasses started getting closer to me instead. Since then...I haven't needed to believe in anyone, and I haven't been betrayed.
It was really easy. You'd be surprised how much changes when you change your appearance. Hot girls kept coming on to me, too... But to tell you the truth...that scared me a little.
... Kazuichi...I never felt betrayed by you. I mean...you always believed in me, didn't you?
W-Well...
But after hearing your reasons, I think it's fine. So how about this? If you ever betray us and make us sad...
I'll punch you as hard as I can, got it!?
...
B-Bring it on. I'll make you...eat those words.
...Thanks. Because of you, I understand now. What I really hated all along wasn't being betrayed. I hated myself for being too weak to believe in others.
Whatever happens, I'll believe in you. That...is what being friends is all about. Let's definitely get out of here. All of us.
Yeah...definitely. Kazuichi offered his hand, and I gripped it firmly. This time, I felt a strong, definite bond forming between Kazuichi and me, and I...
But...it'll be different if you act suspicious. Even if you're my friend, I'll doubt you if you're suspicious.
