Death Parade	comment	Welcome to Quindecim.Two people walk into a bar with no recollection of how they arrived there. Greeted by a mysterious white haired man who calls himself Decim, they are told very little of their current situation, only that they must play a game in which they will stake their lives. With no way to escape, they have little choice but to comply with the man's strange demands.As they play the game, the two soon start to recall the circumstances that brought them to the bar, and their true colors begin to shine in a game that pits the two souls against one another.Produced by Madhouse, Death Parade expands off of a half-hour short called "Death Billiards", Yuzuru Tachikawa's entry for Japan's Anime Mirai: Young Animator Training Program in 2013. The short was successful enough to be one of only two that were made into an anime series. The series premiered in 2015 and can be legally streamed on Funimation's site.

Death Parade / int_106adcb7	comment	Undeathly Pallor: With the exception of Ambiguously Brown characters like Castra, Ginti, and Tria, the Arbiters are portrayed as significantly more pale than the human characters. Decim stands out the most though - in some lighting his skin is almost as white as his hair◊.

Death Parade / int_10d9daca	comment	Mayu does this for Harada in episode 6. This happens before they realize they're dead, though, and it's not made entirely clear if she did it to save face (because she was about to piss herself in front of her idol) or out of genuine selflessness, either. Tries to do it again in episode 11, because Ginti tells her there is a chance to get back Harada's soul if another soul is given in his place. He lied.

Death Parade / int_14beeefd	type	Darker and Edgier
Death Parade / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: The series as a whole is darker than the short film that preceded it. While the premise is still the same overall, Billiards had some comedic moments and wasn't as dramatic as most episodes in the show are. It was less graphic, less creepy, and also (mostly) less ambiguous. Then comes the first episode of the show proper, which is about a toxic relationship where the characters become increasingly hostile towards one another. It's revealed that they died because Takashi was so bitter and paranoid that Machiko was cheating on him that he tried taking away her phone while driving, and drove themselves off a cliff, killing them both as well as his unborn child. The episode ends with the man begging Decim to let him hit his wife. There are about two or three episodes that debatably have a more laid-back tone to them, but most follow this thread. Episodes 8 and 9 are by far the darkest in the series. Both guests are guilty of murder for revenge, and the black-haired woman breaks down to the point where she calls out Decim for his cruel methods and even intervenes to try to save Shimada from sending himself to the Void, and she fails.

Death Parade / int_15800db3	comment	All Are Equal in Death: Very much averted; there's often a fairly large imbalance between players' skills and experience in the games they're made to play, giving a clear indication of who's meant to win. As Decim says, "Life is unfair." Of course, this is all deliberately done to put the players through a high-stress scenario, to see how they react under the pressure. Considering that there's no rules against assault, it means that a pro can lose by virtue of being unconscious after a beating.

Death Parade / int_1bcfe069	type	Absurdism
Death Parade / int_1bcfe069	comment	Absurdism: The canon opening theme shows the cast taking a break from work, which features them juggling, swinging on Decim's threads, dancing in front of dummies note which are actually just corpses, dancing on ''graves'', and drinking, all while a jazzy, upbeat song about living your best life plays in the background. The imagery of these fun looking characters just having a good time contrasted with what the show is actually about is truly jarring, but it only further adds to the show's overall absurdist philosophy. Decim and the black-haired woman's relationship is integral to the plot, as well as Decim's character development. Her presence is what guides him into cementing his own ideas about human nature, and what kind of arbiter he wants to be. However, it is ultimately meaningless, as arbiters are set up to forget about their guests every 3 months. Much like Albert Camus' Sisyphus, Decim is shown smiling at the end of the show. Though this seems hopeful, it's undercut by Oculus' assurance that if an arbiter works with a human, it will "ruin them." It's up to the viewer to decide if that's true or not.

Death Parade / int_1c445e86	type	Poor Communication Kills
Death Parade / int_1c445e86	comment	Poor Communication Kills: A major recurring theme throughout the show. Takashi is so distrustful and paranoid that he believes his wife is cheating on him with very flimsy evidence, even before it actually happens. He spends their marriage bitter and resentful, but he never discusses anything with her. The hostility builds until he tries to take her cell phone away while driving, leading to their deaths as well as the death of their unborn child. When Machiko eventually does cheat on him, she's shown to be remorseful, but she also doesn't talk about it. Due to being emotionally abused and neglected by his mom, Yosuke refuses to get close to his stepmother, even though she seems to be a kind woman. He deeply regrets being unable to even call her "mom" before killing himself, and hates himself for not letting her in. Shimada's sister was assaulted, and while she's recovering in the hospital, she wishes death upon the people who harmed her while talking to him. Instead of realizing that she is traumatized and probably wouldn't actually want that to happen if she was in a better headspace, and instead of staying with her, he swears revenge on the people who hurt her and dies in the process, leaving his orphaned teenage sister alone. As Unwitting Pawns, both Decim and his assistant fall victim to this. Most of the pain they endure could have been avoided if Nona were honest with them from the start. The black-haired woman's inability to open up to Decim or anyone for that matter turns out to be her Fatal Flaw, as it's revealed that she pushes away people who care about her and doesn't bother trying to communicate her feelings or her needs. She believes that people fundamentally can't understand one another and that there's really no point in even trying. This is what lead to her suicide, and it's something she ends up deeply regretting and wishing she could take back. On the other hand, while Decim wants to get to know her better, his attempts at doing so are backwards and cruel, and it's unclear to her that he's even trying to do so until the very end. Open and frank communication is such a foreign concept to his kind that, when he's asked how we express our feelings to others, he can't even come up with an answer. His inability to engage in honest discussion like a normal person is partially what leads him to taking in his assistant in the first place, and ends up causing them both a great degree of pain. Ultimately, this is the Fatal Flaw of the black-haired woman.

Death Parade / int_1f6983f7	comment	Ambiguous Situation: Since the arbiters as well as the audience is never let in on what's going through the minds of the guests, it's often unclear exactly what they were thinking during specific situations, or if they even happened as shown in the first place. Notably, the guests in the first two episodes: Was Machiko cheating on Takashi before they even got married? Was it really a one time thing? If so, did his behavior push her into doing it? Could they have been happy if they talked things through? Or would his bitterness truly make him permanently miserable? Did Mai get plastic surgery so she could look like Chisato when she was young? Would Shigeru have liked her if she still looked like she did before? Or did Chisato's own self-consciousness lead her to pull away from him in the first place? Did Sae really want Shimada to kill the man who assaulted her and his "friend", or did she only say that she wants them dead because she was traumatized and at her worst? Did Tatsumi's wife really thank him for killing her murderer, or was he just hearing things? Would Sae's assailant really have kept getting away with it if Tatsumi didn't attempt to kill him? When Decim's guests attack one another, is that really their "true nature," or are they just being forced into feeling this way because of the extreme situations? And in any case, does "why" they behave that way even matter in the first place?

While it's implied that they both reincarnated rather than one of them being sent to the void, this also comes with the fact that they could easily reincarnate as people a world apart, meaning they simply cannot be together as they want to be in this (after-) life.

Considering Decim has a device that is designed to create a Contrived Coincidence with every use, he's likely to blame for this.

Most guests react negatively to realizing theyâ€™re dead, worried about the people they left behind or the things they werenâ€™t able to do. Chiyuki develops this after realizing sheâ€™s dead, which is hinted at throughout the latter half of the show and ultimately comes to a head in the final episode when Decim shows her a vision of her mother grieving over her shrine.

Mai gets to go on a date with the childhood friend whom she's loved for years, but they're both dead, and it seems it isn't until she had plastic surgery that he began to recognize her. While it's implied that they both reincarnated rather than one of them being sent to the void, this also comes with the fact that they could easily reincarnate as people a world apart, meaning they simply cannot be together as they want to be in this (after-) life. The end of the series as a whole. Chiyuki passes Decim's test of character and is sent to be reincarnated, and Decim finally is able to accept his emotions. However, he and Chiyuki will never be reunited, a burden Decim's going to have to live with. It's also implied that Nona's machinations are mostly useless in the grand scheme of things, as Oculus says there may be powers even greater than himself. Puppets all the way down...

Yousuke lived with a very abusive mother who wished he was never born and because of the way he grew up, he became antisocial and hardly spoke to anyone, not even his kind stepmother. Even in the afterlife, the arcade game has a Flanderization of him and he gets his face smashed onto the machine by Misaki. But, Misaki probably had it even worse. She married three times and each husband was just as abusive as the other and they all left her with at least one child. She ended up becoming abusive to her own children and her manager. She was done in by said manager after she had been through much of her abuse. In the afterlife, she plays as a Flanderization of herself and after learning that she is dead, she receives a figurative blow below the belt from Decim when he coldly states that she should be familiar with "life being unfair".

There are two very spoileriffic ones toward the black-haired woman and her being a figure skater when she was alive: Along with the game paraphernalia on the bar in the scene with her, Nona, and Decim, there's a pair of ice skates, seemingly at random. Decim applauds her slide across the floor behind Nona and Quin drinking. Not only is she in a Biellmann spin pose, if you look closely, you'll see that she's wearing the figure skater outfit she eventually wears in ep. 11. In the colorful shot of the title bursting at the screen before the switch to Decim and the black-haired woman at the bar, in the last few frames the organs affected by the games can be seen. When Ginti rips his shirt off, one of the buttons flies towards the screen. Memine catches it. As the cast is swinging through the air, Clavis falls off his wire. The scene where Nona is playing the DDR-style game has several symbols of death, and Buddha's hands can be seen in the background. In the scene where all of the arbiters are coming out of the elevator and pointing up, Ginti is snarling at Mayu putting her arm in his face. Take a close look at the Chavvo doll in the final shot. The right cuff of its coat's sleeve appears to be torn off, hinting at the black-haired woman's cutting her wrist to kill herself.

It is revealed in the second episode that Machiko lied about bearing another man's child to free Takashi from the guilt of killing his own child. Unfortunately, Decim didn't realize that she was lying and sent Machiko to the Void and Takashi to be reincarnated. Mayu does this for Harada in episode 6. This happens before they realize they're dead, though, and it's not made entirely clear if she did it to save face (because she was about to piss herself in front of her idol) or out of genuine selflessness, either. Tries to do it again in episode 11, because Ginti tells her there is a chance to get back Harada's soul if another soul is given in his place. He lied.

This activates the human emotions that were inside Decim where he clutches his chest and experiences human emotions for the first time.

Heâ€™s angry and extremely antagonistic towards Decim, slamming his hand on the table and Suddenly Shouting when he talks to him. No other guest is shown to be quite this hostile. This neatly portrays him as an angry, paranoid individual who immediately assumes the worst of people, including, as we find out, his own wife. Episode 4: Misaki takes the lead in her dynamic with Yosuke. She aggressively teases him to get him to play the game her way, and he meekly goes along with it. Misaki is a TV performer and Yosuke is a shut-in with a Mother complex. Episode 6: Mayu enters Viginti and is immediately excited to be there and unquestioning, singing for the ghosts to come out and play. Harada, an idol, is portrayed as cool, and constantly smiles at Mayu and speaks to her in a friendly way while his first line of internal dialogue is about how gaudy she is, showing that his idol persona is a front and he doesnâ€™t actually care about his fans. Episode 8: Tatsumi is immediately scrutinous of Decim and very calmly questions why heâ€™s here. He is soon revealed to be a detective.

No one in the recurring cast has a backstory except for the dark-haired woman, and when it's eventually revealed that Arbiters used to be humans that were sent to The Void, this only leaves us with more questions. The canon Drama CD implies that there is some backstory between Nona and Clavis, but it's never elaborated on and it's unclear how much the characters themselves even know about it given that it's possible it happened before either of them began working in the tower.

Tatsumi is sharp, direct, cold, and scrutinous. The black-haired woman and Ginti are both red to Decims blue. Decim is cold, stoic, pensive and distant while his assistant is passionate, friendly, and emotional, and Ginti, as mentioned above, is much more aggressive.

They were among the most pleasant characters and, while they of course weren't thrilled to have died, they were able to find some joy and beauty in it. The old woman in episode 10 plainly states that she has a good life and she has no negative feelings towards her death, even telling Decim she doesn't care to know how she died. In episode 11, Chiyuki explains her death in a rather blasÃ© manner and talks about her suicide with a small smile. She doesn't seem terribly bothered by it and seems eager to be done with all of this so she can move on. Subverted later on when Decim forces her to watch her grieving mother and she finally admits that she wants to live again, so she can see her again.

The people who will judge you have no empathy for your struggles and are so far removed from normal human emotions that they're prone to making mistakes in their judgements. People who are good can be sent to the void, and people who commit heinous acts can be reincarnated based on a whim. Judgments can only be described as emotional torture. They are explicitly meant to bring out the worst in you and to use your memories and experiences against you. The arbiters themselves have no idea who they are and where they came from, and any attempts at character development, change, or connection are inherently frowned upon by the system they are forced to work under, meaning that even if they do find value and meaning to their "lives," or the lives of the humans they judge, it will be All for Nothing in the end. It's unknown if Chiyuki's influence on Decim will stick, or if he will revert back to zero after the three month rule.

Death Parade / int_8e20979	comment	Wham Episode: Episode 5 reveals the Myth Arc of the series—the assistant's judgment. As it turns out, she is a dead human who could recall that she had died upon being sent to Quindecim, so Decim had her memories erased and is now keeping her as his assistant in some Secret Test of Character. This episode also hints at a fundamental difference between humans and arbiters, which isn't really elaborated upon until episode 7. Episode 7 dumps so many swerves so casually that you can hardly tell they even happen. Mainly, Arbiters are emotionless dummies who cannot die, and Nona has had human emotions implanted in Decim for immediate reasons that have yet to be fully revealed. Episode 9 is even worse, since it is a Wham Episode for the series as well as the continuing guests from episode 8. The black-haired woman breaks down and says many, many things that shocks even Decim. She finally expresses her rage and contempt towards how cruel the system he serves is, eliciting a genuine emotional response from him for the first time and sparking Nona's plan. And then the guest's memories return, revealing that Tatsumi was a Serial-Killer Killer and obsessive Vigilante Man who watched Shimada's sister get assaulted simply so he could kill the assailant. Shimada eventually killed him before bleeding out himself. The episode ends on the darkest note yet. Episode 10 reveals the assistant's true name to be Chiyuki, the old man's wife from Death Billiards passed away, and Oculus finally discovers that Nona implanted human emotions into Decim after stealing memories from Clavis. Episode 11, where do we start? We learn that Chiyuki was an professional skater who won several skating competitions until she got an serious knee injury which abruptly ended her career. She went into deep depression and killed herself. In the same episode, Ginti tells Mayu that there is a way to bring Harada's soul back from the void by offering a soul in his place. He lied. As Mayu and Harada descend into the void, they transform into dummies; confirming that before they were dummies, Arbiters were once humans.

Death Parade / int_92f674e5	comment	Revenge: The ultimate theme of episodes eight and nine, as this is what connects the two players together. Shimada's sister was assaulted, and he wants to avenge her death by murdering the person who did that to her. Similarly, Tatsumi's wife was killed by someone he arrested, and he wants to kill the man who killed her. In the end, it is revealed that they both succeeded in killing the ones they wanted to. It's then revealed that Tatsumi was killed by Shimada—because Shimada suspected him of watching the other man assault his sister...which was correct. Tatsumi was a vigilante Serial-Killer Killer who allowed Shimada's little sister to be victimized so he can justifiably torture and kill the assailant. The episode ends with Shimada getting his revenge a second time and torturing Tatsumi for what he's done by repeatedly stabbing the hockey pucks linked to his body parts, an act which gets Shimada banished to the Void forever, never to see his sister again.

Happens in the first episode of the series, when Takashi realizes that he caused the death of his wife and unborn child. Happens to Yousuke in the fourth episode when he realizes he committed suicide before calling his stepmother "mom". And to Misaki when she in desperation, bangs Yousuke's head against the video game machine's screen. Harada from episode 6 feels this way after his previous girlfriend Kana committed suicide because he left her. The dark-haired woman also goes through this when Decim shows her an illusion of her mother grieving over her shrine. She's absolutely tortured over having caused her mother so much grief after her suicide.

As the games are supposed to draw out a player's true and darker colors, especially when the tension is driven up, such actions are required for a proper judgement.

As it turns out, Chiyuki was this as well. She was a top tier figure skater and devoted her entire life to it, until a knee injury meant that she could never skate again. Her resulting depression caused her to distance herself from everyone around her and realize that no one had any hope in understanding one another.

Death Parade / int_d5f518d3	comment	The Dead Can Dance: Decim and his assistant are shown to be great dancers in the opening theme, and may other characters get to do a little jig as well. Lampshaded in the Drama CD when Nona instructs the black-haired woman to dance and she says she doesn't know how, but Mona reassures her she'll do just fine. As a figure skater, she's physically skilled and well-coordinated, so of course it comes naturally to her.

When Chiyuki arrived at Quindecim, she had remembered dying, something that we are made to believe has never happened and was simply an oversight due to the memory compilers being overworked. However, it is implied in the last episode that this was very intentional and that she is not the only one who has been used like this, and that Nona, Quin, and Castra have been doing this with various humans.

Episode 5 furthers this by Decim showing concern for her after Ginti knocks her out cold and later carrying her to her bed. He also gives her a Longing Look or two for good measure, and opens up to her in episode seven about his "hobby." After this, she seems to be warming up to him a little more, as well. The drama CD provides tease for Nona/Clavis of all people.

Some of his Kokeshi dolls have cat-like faces on them, his pet cat Memine is the only living thing he treats respectfully, and his design is very catlike as well; with narrow yellow-gold eyes and a lion-like hairstyle. He even sports a Cheshire Cat Grin in episode 6.

While they initially donâ€™t remember this, they slowly uncover their motivations as they play the game together,, and their behavior changes completely when they remember what they had set out to do, becoming more motivated to finish the game so they can go out and accomplish their goals. Even after realizing he had already accomplished his goals, Shimada is so overcome with rage at realizing the depths of Tatsumi's corrupt morality that he is urged by Decim into torturing him.

This seems to be a major point of that woman's character type in general. Episode 9 firmly cements her as Decim's Foil when she tells him that dragging out the darkness of someone's soul is forceful and arbitrary, and she sympathetically recalls and somewhat justifies past actions of the dead guests, noting The Power of Love and implying that not everyone who exhibits "darkness" is actually "dark" themselves. Basically, she humanizes the guests, rather than demonizing them.

The black-haired woman breaks down and says many, many things that shocks even Decim. She finally expresses her rage and contempt towards how cruel the system he serves is, eliciting a genuine emotional response from him for the first time and sparking Nona's plan. And then the guest's memories return, revealing that Tatsumi was a Serial-Killer Killer and obsessive Vigilante Man who watched Shimada's sister get assaulted simply so he could kill the assailant. Shimada eventually killed him before bleeding out himself. The episode ends on the darkest note yet.
