Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Yoshio Akamatsu was often bullied in class. What was the main reason for the bullying he received?

Answer: He was the largest boy in the class

Yoshio Akamatsu was tall and had a large build, but despite his size he was a very timid person. He was often bullied because of his size, and also because of his lack of sporting ability (which was due to his size), and this was what made him mistrustful of his classmates once the game began.
2. Yoshio Akamatsu was bullied by a number of people in his class, in particular the boys from Kazuo Kiriyama's gang. Which boy is mentioned as being the one who especially tended to pick on him?

Answer: Ryuhei Sasagawa

All the characters mentioned were members of Kazuo Kiriyama's gang of "delinquents", and all of them had bullied Yoshio at one point or another. Ryuhei Sasagawa is singled out as being the member of the group who most often liked to torment Yoshio.
3. Which weapon did Mizuho Inada find in her day pack?

Answer: Double Bladed Knife

Mizuho was supplied with a double bladed knife. There were around five students who had knives supplied in their day packs, though each one received a different type. All of the other weapons listed belonged to other students on the island.
4. Yoshio is knocked unconscious after he meets Shuya Nanahara outside the school building. How does this happen?

Answer: Shuya throws one of Yoshio's arrows at him, making him hit his head

Shuya runs out of the school, and Yoshio attacks him. He shoots one of his arrows at Shuya, who grabs the arrow and throws it back at Yoshio. Yoshio loses his balance, and hits his head, knocking him out for a couple of minutes, during which time Shuya escapes with Noriko Nakagawa.
5. Mizuho Inada lives inside a fantasy world, where she is a warrior. Her warrior name was _____ Dikianne Mizuho. Fill in the blank.

Answer: Prexia

Mizuho had always made up these fantasies in her head. Her friends tolerated it, and even reluctantly joined in her games, but they secretly found it tedious. The pressure of the game finally got to Mizuho, and she believed that the fantasy world was reality.

In the manga version of the story, it is suggested that Mizuho is an undiagnosed paranoid schizophrenic, but this is not really covered in the novel.
6. Mizuho believed that she had been appointed a warrior by the god of light, Ahura Mazda, who resided in a crystal she wore around her neck. Where did Mizuho get the crystal?

Answer: She bought it from a mail order catalogue

Mizuho believed that Ahura Mazda spoke to her from inside the crystal, even though she bought it from a catalogue. She believed he had sent her the message that she was to become a warrior via a local fortune teller.
7. Kazushi Niida shot Yoshio with his own bowgun. He picked up the bowgun because he found it on the floor, what happened to make him shoot Yoshio?

Answer: Yoshio stood up and Kazushi was startled, and accidentally fired

Yoshio woke up, after being knocked out by Shuya, just as Kazushi Niida was exiting the school. Kazushi found the bowgun and picked it up with no intention of shooting Yoshio, but when Yoshio stood up suddenly, Kazushi reflexively fired the bowgun.
8. Which two students did Mizuho Inada believe to be demons?

Answer: Kazuo Kiriyama and Mitsuko Souma

While immersed in her fantasy world, Mizuho belived that Kazuo and Mitsuko were both demons, because she had witnessed them killing the other students. She thought it was her duty, as a warrior of the god of light, to kill the demons.
9. Yoshio died from the wound inflicted by Kazushi Niida. Where did the fatal arrow hit Yoshio?

Answer: Neck

The arrow from the bowgun hit Yoshio in the neck, killing him. This differs from the manga version of the story, where he is killed by an arrow to the side of the head, and also from the film, where it appears Yoshio is shot in the face.
10. When Mizuho tried to attack Kazuo Kiriyama, what did she believe she was attacking him with?

Answer: A legendary sword

Mizuho ran at Kazuo and tried to kill him from behind with her knife, which she believed had transformed into a legendary sword. Unfortunately, Kazuo knew she was approaching, and shot her without even turning to look at her.

Thanks for playing the first quiz in this series, there will eventually be one on each pair of students. Given that certain students only have limited information given about them, some quizzes will be easier, and some more difficult, so give them all a try!
