, this really hit well and hard right on the chest, really good execution.
They went on the bridge the first day (same day) they met, it is the same bridge Reo Izumi (the girl in black hair) commits suicide from at the end (and also shown at the beginning at , right before she jumps).
I read it from one of the comments here (credit - @Merry_Bad_End) that the phone drop we see at and 2nd September, (Wednesday) 2020, I cant see the date itself myself as it is too blurred out but im assuming it is this date (yes, irl the 2nd September of 2020 was indeed a Wednesday).
On , Reo drops her phone before jumping off, the surface material of which the phone is dropped on looks like its on concrete or some road-like texture, I see this as a beautiful, yet a tragic mark of a friendship that was cut too short (only ~39 days) and is now together forever in the realm of death.
There are Reo's diary logs from <-->
ここに出てきた二つのマスコット
, she talks about winning a prize at the prefectural exhibition while thinking about Chika, every log shows how deeply connected Reo is to her (she mentions her every log).
ここの展開ほんと神神神神………そしてMV衝撃過ぎる(;O;)見たことが傷になったけど大切に聴きます……（衝撃過ぎて自分でもちょっと何言ってるかわかりません……）
On , the chaotic visuals are likely what they mean by "虚空を撫でた手で そのまま攫って" in the lyrics> "虚空を撫でた手で"> "a hand that strokes/caresses the void/empty sky" or "with hands that stroked the void"Interpretation is that it is Reo's grief towards Chika's absence, she feels empty especially since she was so connected to her that it felt to her like the world was nothing but void.
are on
th's log that she says she "finally gathered the courage to ask Chika out on the big fireworks festival", we see that happening in the texting scene at
th (based on the date and text that is showed on her character at )8/28 - they lit sparklers / fireworks together on the beach-side, Chika logs it the same day it seems.
LINE messages but does not get any of them replied (() wallpaper of Chika's phone is of the mascots together, and Reo's wallpaper is of her and Chika's themselves)This implies that she mustve died before due to either gas poisoning or something related before the explosion (its not clear what the house fire started from), later she hears the explosion from her house and rushes there to see that its caught on fire.
Chika is also seen with the same halo she had on herself during the fire scene (on ), the piano melody also seems slowed and reversed as opposed to the start of the song at
では燃えたから一つ消えていて最後は海に飛び込んで自殺したから海に沈んでいくの悲しい.....
At , one of the mascots sinks to the bottom of the background that is supposedly the sea under the bridge Reo is jumping off of, a clear representation of her death.
