Evil All Along | |
| Monkey Peak (Manga) / int_4aa98555 | comment |
Evil All Along: Yagi reveals that he has been dragging the survivors around in order to lure the monkeys, which he wants to kill to avenge his sister. By the time that the few survivors realize it, they're also aware that not following him is more likely to end with them lost and tailed by the monkey. Chief Hasegawa reveals he faked his death and kills Izuka when he meets him, admitting to be working with the monkeys. Hayashi, like Hasegawa, is an accomplice of the monkeys, and poisons what is left of the party in chapter 96, only offering antidote if they help her get rid of Anzai. | |

Sanity Slippage: Justified. It takes a short time for character to start behaving erratically, but as the narrative points out, lapses of judgement are a symptom of their dehydration. | |

It Can Think | |
| Monkey Peak (Manga) / int_c95d04f2 | comment |
It Can Think: Perhaps the most dangerous aspect of the Monkey is its capacity to plan and trap the people it's hunting. The very first instance, the plaque pointing to the Hot Springs closest to where the characters were was switched to one going towards the wrong direction: an extremely steep and narrow stairway which would make the group's movement slow and dangerous, and allowing it free time to hack on the ones at the end of the line, while the panic would cause those a little more in the front to fall and cause several injuries on the way down. When the characters find the monkey already in the Nakadake Cabin, the first thing the monster does is to destroy the water bottles of the cabin in front of them, knowing they're already suffering of dehydration by then. Furthermore, they suspect it already had poisoned the food for them. Which it partly had. | |

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane | |
| Monkey Peak (Manga) / int_cb70651c | comment |
Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: The Monkey. Is it a supernatural entity? Is it possibly an actual overgrown and violent monkey? Is it possibly just a normal person in disguise? To complicate things, it's implied that there is a traitor working together with the monkey, or that at least knew of its existence and wanted to kill the members of the company. The local legends says of the existence of a "Monkey God", counting how a samurai turned monkey killed the troublemaking monkeys of the area by pretending to be a lady and getting then drunk on sake before killing all but one who escaped by throwing them off of cliffs, making it possible to be a separate species of monkey. Characters comment that it still would not justify the monkey's actions as there was no reports of such mass violence and missing people before. Furthermore, there is actually a group of various monkeys acting in tandem. Later, it is shown that there is actually only one monkey. The other monkeys are people in costume, in a group to take down the members of the company. | |

Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique: When Anzai suspects Himuro of being a possible accomplice of the monkey, he hands him up by the hands and starts stabbing his thigh with a fork to get him to talk. Even the people who helped restrain him are upset at this. | |

Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Zigzagged. All of the characters whether male or female have serious nasty looking wounds when they die or suffer from injuries, but two out of three female characters (Fujishiba and Hayashi) have notably less dirt, injuries or signs of hiking for a long period of times. The majority of the characters hair are also seemingly to be unaffected by the amount of climbing and fighting throughout the course of the story. | |
