Summary
  • Kasumi Mogi is the owner of the box that creates the rejecting classroom. Prior to being confronted by O and obtaining the box, she had hit by a truck and was in a critical condition. She felt like she wasn't ready to die now that she had finally found a reason to keep living, which was the boy she fell in love with. In order to be able to tell Kazuki how she felt about him she wished for the rejecting classroom. The rejecting classroom repeated the same day for thousands of days. Inside the box, everyone forgot their memories each day and saw everything as normal everyday life. There were however four people inside this box that could remember. Kasumi Mogi, the creator of the box could remember each day, however she never made it known to the others in order to hide that she had created the box. Being the center of the box, even if someone else did find out that Kasumi created the box, they would forget about it the next day, even if they did remember everything else. The other person who could remember is Kazuki Hoshino . The reasons why Kazuki could remember are not entirely specific, other than it is Kazuki's will to continue living an everyday life. Because Kazuki longed for the everyday life more than anything else, he was able to notice that he was not living an everyday life. Aya Maria Otonashi could also remember, due to the fact that she herself was a box. The last person who could remember was O who was impersonating Haruaki Usui in order to observe Kazuki from up close. After Kasumi Mogi was unable to take it anymore, and being unable to get Kazuki to accept her confession, she kills herself after killing Maria and Kazuki. O, however, wants to observe Kazuki inside the box for longer, and so he continues the box, this time with Maria Otonashi as Kasumi Mogi. Everyone else, including Kazuki thought that Maria was Mogi this time, and saw it as completely normal. Maria knew otherwise, and after explaining everything to everyone else, they conceived a plan. Kazuki however had realized that Haruaki was actually O and made up his own plan to go against him. After they threatened O using Maria's box, O decided to end the rejecting classroom, but he told Kazuki that his everyday life would never be the same again. After talking to Mogi again, Mogi confessed her love one last time and accepted her fate in the real world. Kazuki finally ended the rejecting classroom as he broke the box. After the box ended, Mogi ended up surviving the car accident, but is still in the hospital from her injuries. Everyone else goes to visit her.
