*sigh* I'm kinda getting tired of answering this question. Think of it as belonging to an organisation instead. No matter how you put it people are always categorised into groups. You're not going to be the only person who's alone. By that definition, there will be other people who are also alone. So if you define them globally around the world you get the forever alone group.
And seriously, I'm getting kinda scared of playing Doki Doki Literature. It's not everyday that you get four warnings about disturbing stuff in the start of an apparently fluffy game. Also, it is tagged as "Psychological Horror" in my country on Steam so it gets even worse. But well, I'm curious so off we go.
*game presents you two alternatives: "I love you." "You'll always be my dearest friend."*
Ha... Hahaha.... Hahahahaha.... *weakly smashes head in the wall*
This hurts man...
It's looking hard bro.... "Don't forget to save your game before important decisions." "Huh? This isn't even about writing. What am I saying~." "So what Monika told me is true after all." "Oh, I probably know more about it than you do."
I think the game wants me to start calling her "GM" now.
Many things came out of nowhere.
Like spending the weekend with a corpse.
Like a daddy who is too tired for anything.
Like Monika and my mouse looming over her option regardless if I wanted it or not.
Like Natsuki's letter.
Like the stains in Yuri's letter... And I'm not talking about the blood ones.
Like many, many things...
To achieve the ending, delete her character file while the scene of her in the looped room is still running. Then come back to her scene and keep playing.
So, Shujinko-san (or Shu, for the sake of keeping it short) was someone who knew Monika in the real world and this triggered her President Perception once he entered in the club. Monika was already half-aware that the world was a game and his arrival just concretized it..
The game is the only way she has of interacting with him, but she seems like a third-wheel in the script, in a way that he almost never interacts with her because she's not supposed to be a catch target. She, with the new perspective of the world, slowly starts to see him as her only light, seeing as everyone she knows (only the club, everyone else is faceless) do not have any kind of free will.
So, falling in love with him, she starts to attempt at making him notice her, continuously, through many loops of seeing the script go in the way of other girls and restarting of the game. She starts to slowly become desperate and numb of their interactions in the club, so much that she finally starts to try and manipulate things her way, going as far as messing with the script.
This backfires with Sayori's suicide (I'll just assume she would probably restart the game and delete Sayori's character if I made Shu accept her confession. If not, correct me please. I have no way of finding out as the saves were all deleted and Monika was not going anywhere after that, apparently).
Then, it just goes downhill after that. Sayori's character ends up deleted, just as Yuri's (will get to her now) and Natsuki's too. The process for this to happen hurt Monika even more than she already was and then the "You and I alone in the world" scene happens, in an ever-repeating loop of a scene that goes on the classroom.
Then you delete her character, then she restores the game in a way that she is not present, then Sayori shows yandere vibes, the game is terminated and her real voice appears (I had to tear myself away from my laptop after that, but I don't think there was anything important after that sad track.
If there is though, I'll come back here to correct whatever is wrong when I read it). Shu's perception of the game is cut short, and he ends up with the real contact of Monika.
Was this how you perceived the story? (take note that I didn't read Natsuki's extra scenes but I just assume if there really was a route for her, her insecurities would be toned up to the level of an unfortunate suicide... Again.)
Also, I have an impression that Yuri is a real person too. I mean, there are lots of metaphors tying to her character, and I think there is a visual one and a poem that hint at this theory. When she goes crazy, sometimes her eyes become deformed and moving, looking like real ones peering through a drawing.
Also, her awareness of something that happened in a timeline that Monika erased and the "Daddy" poem that comes out of nowhere in one of hers and Monika's freak out. I couldn't find a way to tie that poem to Monika's character, and I could easily see Yuri's self-harming disorder resulting out of neglect.
And as there are no backstories on the game, that would indicate she was a real person gaining awareness of the situation before Monika cut her character short after the weekend-suicide.
Ah, the notes about the father is actually Natsuki's, if you played her route you could have figured that out easily. Only in the first run, you can't enter her route on the second run.
Oh really? So, going by this, I have enough to suppose that every member of the club is a real person. Shu by his past with Monika. Monika for obvious reasons. Natsuki for having something that resembles a backstory. And Yuri for getting close to perceive what the situation was.
Also, another mistake I noticed in regards to the daddy part. That was not Yuri's writing style, that was clearly something Natsuki or Sayori would write, and seeing as Sayori was deleted...
