Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who did Kyoichi Motobuchi compete with for the top grades in the class?

Answer: Kazuo Kiriyama

Kyoichi Motobuchi always studied hard and worked to get good grades. He spent all of his free time studying, and was rewarded whenever he had to do an assignment with top marks. The only student who came close to his level of grades was Kazuo Kiriyama, who didn't even have to try.

2. Kaori Minami often joined in with Mizuho Inada's fantasy games. In the games, her name was _____ Lausasse Kaori. Fill in the blank.

Answer: Lorela

Kaori and Mizuho often hung out together, even though they had different interests. Kaori allowed Mizuho to have her fantasy life, and even let her call her Lorela Lausasse Kaori, although in reality she was bored by the games.

3. Kaori was a big fan of Junya Kenzaki, who was the lead singer of a pop band. What was the name of the band?

Answer: Flip Side

Junya Kenzaki sang in the band Flip Side, and Kaori was a huge fan of theirs. She had a massive crush on Junya, and thought that none of the boys she knew in the real world could compare. In this way, she was similar to her friend Mizuho - they both thought their fantasy worlds were preferable to reality.

4. Which of the following guns was Kyoichi's issued weapon?

Answer: Smith & Wesson .38 Chief's Special Pistol

Kyoichi's gun was a Smith & Wesson .38 Chief's Special Pistol. We get to see an awful lot of this gun throughout the novel, because it is the gun that Shuya ends up with for most of the story.

5. Which of the following positions did Kyoichi hold at school?

Answer: Class representative

Kyoichi was the male class representative, and held the position along with Yukie Utsumi. Unlike Yukie, Kyoichi didn't seem very popular, and it's likely he took the position because of the way it would look on his school record, and because it would aid him in finding a job later on.

6. Kaori was very self conscious about something - what was it?

Answer: Her bad skin

Kaori had very bad skin, which she constantly worried about - when a tree branch touches her face she starts to remember all the times she was taunted for her skin, and all the lotion she uses to try and sort it out. I don't think it is mentioned whether or not Kaori wears glasses, but her manga counterpart does.

7. Why was Kyoichi shocked that he and his class were chosen for the program?

Answer: Because his father worked for the government

Kyoichi stands up and asks Kinpatsu Sakamochi how he can be chosen, saying that his father holds a high position in the government, so he should be exempt. Kinpatsu explains that nobody is exempt, which we see later when we discover that Shogo Kawada has been chosen for a second time.

8. What was Kaori's favourite song called?

Answer: Galaxy Magnum

Kaori mentions that her favourite song is Galaxy Magnum, sung, of course, by Flip Side. She is a member of the Flip Side fan club, and always wears the exclusive Flip Side locket - available only to fan club members - with a picture of Junya inside. She keeps looking at the locket to keep her calm during the program, but in actual fact, she is starting to lose her mind.

9. How many times was Kyoichi shot?

Answer: 2

Shogo Kawada first shoots off Kyoichi's arm, to stop him from shooting Shuya. When this fails to deter Kyoichi, who just picks up the gun with his other hand, Shogo shoots him in the stomach with the shotgun. The shot is at close range, so Kyoichi has a huge hole blown through his stomach, killing him straight away.

10. Where did Hirono Shimizu shoot Kaori?

Answer: In the shoulder then in the head

Hirono shoots Kaori in the shoulder while they are locked in combat, and while Kaori is distracted by Shuya. Shuya rushes in and tries to stop the girls from fighting, but Hirono takes the opportunity to kill Kaori while she is distracted, shooting her once in the shoulder, and then once in the head.
