Sunny tried his best during the final practice the day before, but Mari, a perfectionist as she is, only scolded him throughout the night, the stress was getting the better of her.
Sunny's fingers felt like they were bleeding - he tried so hard to fulfill his sister's expectations, yet she kept shouting at him.
In a moment of frustration, he threw the violin down the stairs, breaking it to pieces.
Mari, now even more upset, gets even angrier at him.
In just a tiny moment of blind rage, just wanting for the shouting to stop, Sunny pushes Mari, causing her to fall down the stairs and on top of the broken violin.
Is the violin the culprit? Who knows, maybe Mari would've died from the fall either way.
Despite it being an accident, Sunny pushed Mari in the first place, making him the culprit, though.
the violin is the culprit because if he was given a set of tri angles on his 13th birthday all this would've neve happend and on top of that mari fell on this cursed thing.. the violin finished her off
OT.. i want to play the game again but i also dont.. i was kinda depressed the whole day feels like breakup pain everytime i think about the end and mari hanging i get the goosys
Cowbell -- Sunny on the cowbell could have turned this whole story around.
and her perfectionism is described in the dark space pictures theres actual heavily blured out text to them but that version is only accesable via datamining.
so how you feel after you've finished it
So there's no actual proof of this perfectionism then? The game doesn't actually tell you this? And I saw the broken violin, just not the cause of the breaking.
How do I feel now that I've finished it? Pretty pissed off, honestly. How the hell does a 12-year-old child fake a hanging? Sunny would have had to drag a 17/18-year-old's dead body through the house, across the yard, and somehow lift it up on his own. Why was Basil there to witness this? He lives four houses away and across the street! Suspension of disbelief is for the Omori world, not the Sunny world.
He didn't do it on his own, you can see in the photos that Basil is helping him, although Sunny doesn't realize. (The aforementioned photo text actually mentions Mari's body being surprisingly light because of that.)
Basil got there as the argument is starting. Aside from timing, it's not really weird that he'd show up at his friends house soon before his recital.
I did a deep dive into this, and the whole thing about text with the final photos isn't in the normal game, that was cut from the final release or something. And Basil only shows up in one photo, so without that text, there's no way for the player to know he was there the whole time and assisting.
What's worse is I didn't realize before that Sunny put Mari into her bed first. So not only does the official release of the game not give a clear reason for the murder, it also implies Sunny dragged his dead sister up a flight of stairs, then dragged her back down later and outside and across the yard, then managed to make it look like she hanged herself, and somehow the police didnt realize Mari was obviously hanged postmortem along with a number of other postmortem injuries? I get the implication that the parents knew, but the police didn't? This would be some Jon-Benet Ramsey ♥♥♥♥, no one in the neighborhood would trust that family, this would be insane.
I'm not criticizing anyone that's replied to my complaints, I just can't fathom how, going off of only what's in game, anyone is supposed to buy this series of events.
It is definitely a crazy story, and I can understand you getting upset over it.
However, while the text was scrapped, it is still in the game's files, and I strongly believe that Sunny's recall of his traumatic feelings from the murder-night hold true.
I would like to point out a few things on how I interpret the story, which hopefully might help you understand it a bit better:
The things Sunny feels during the TRUTH Sequence in BLACK SPACE allign with the
things that actually happened - for example, Sunny's excruciating pain on his fingers correspond with his fingers getting cut (maybe you can remember it, one photo for each finger), he feels Mari's pulse on the bed, walks downstairs towards her, and so on.
HOWEVER, I also want to point out that Sunny is not the most reliable narrator here.
He was definitely dissociating heavily to protect his mind, and might have gotten some things mixed up once he realized Mari is dead.
Regarding the lack of Basil: Keep in mind that the photos in the truth album are shot from his POV - hence you can only see his face in a reflection once on the glass sliding door to the garden.
He also helped Sunny carry Mari towards the bed, which Sunny probably did not even realize - he just called Mari "lighter than he thought".
Regarding the hanging of Mari - It is really strange, isn't it?
I believe that Sunny's parents definitely got wind of the situation and might have covered and set up the situation.
Proof of that could be the scene in Black Space where you can see Sunny's father trying to chop down the tree where Mari was hung to erase the traces of the guilt he took onto himself for Sunny - without success.
Either way, the parents are not there to support Sunny emotionally, and their grief-struck family broke apart when Mari died.
Also, Sunny and Basil were around 11-12 when Mari died.
I don't think they could've set up such a contraption or even known that "hanging yourself" is a "thing" in the first place at that age.
And that's not even covering a potential police investigation into the suicide, which would've yielded a suspicious autopsy on Mari's body, yadda yadda yadda
It is definitely a mystery.
