Shinigami Rain Code - Blog Posts

I’m just going say it although the book of death/Shinigami’s powers is cool also the big idea of the gameplay;in a way is kinda useless mostly on the fact the culprit dies,i mean HOW ARE YOU GONNA GET A CLEAR TRUTH WITHOUT A CLEAR CONFESSION!!!,also it just made it worse now that there now a person mysteriously dies out of nowhere,but they managed to put it in storyline sooooooo

Yeah something to think about

I think maybe it has to do with since Shinigami is the God of Death, her power is going to have a connection over on death. But you bring up a good point that it isn’t exactly useful considering it makes exposing the criminals harder.

Until I remember in Chapter 0 after the first Mystery Labyrinth from a YouTube gameplay I watched, where Shinigami comments how Yuma is now free since the culprit is dead, which the YouTuber comments that wasn’t going to work because Zilch was meant to be dead from the start and they only ended up reaffirming that narrative the Peacekeepers were painting to begin with. And I was thinking to myself, ‘didn’t they already figured out that the Peacekeepers were in on the plan in the Mystery Labyrinth? So why did she think the Peacekeepers would let him go if they were planning to frame him anyway?’ And that led me to think really hard about this.

We know Shinigami has the flaws of lacking empathy and not understanding humans at times, since she is an immortal god. I think in her mind, since the culprit is gone, there would be no reason for the Peacekeepers to keep framing him. Plus, again thinking into Shinigami’s mind, I think she believed since the culprit was a murderer would mean they would probably kill more people in the future, so the real goal was to stop a growing threat from claiming more victims like before.

And the killing thing? I think it’s a way to deal the justice in the holder’s own hands, to off the culprits so they don’t keep harming people from the mysteries they made, or claiming anymore victims from their deeds. In Chapter 1, one of the culprit was a serial killer, who would have gone off to kill more people. And the other culprit could have technically become a serial killer himself since he admired the Nail Man so much. Plus, an innocent man was going to get framed and executed for the Nail Man’s crimes to keep up appearances, and seeing how the Priest was going along with the lie, basically implied he was okay letting an actual, innocent man die in his place. Then in Chapter 2, Kurumi gets framed for the crime, and since execution seems to be a thing, she could have been executed herself, all so the Peacekeepers can keep their lies and appearance in place.

Plus, we have seen that the Peacekeepers don’t necessarily care about justice unless it serves them (or the higher-ups like Yomi in this case). They are willing to cover up the mysteries to convenient themselves and get what they want. And considering they are the police force, therefore the handlers of justice in Kanai Ward, they are the only ones in power that can lock away the criminals in hand and bring justice. But because they are so corrupt and self-indulgent, they are more willing to let criminals go or turn a blind eye or fail to solve the case thoroughly. So the Book of Death is the only way to ensure not only are the criminals are properly dealt with, but also cut away the Mystery Labyrinths as well. Since Shinigami has noted that if the Mystery Labyrinth grew and remain, they would influence other people into becoming murderers or criminals that would create more Mystery Labyrinths as well. As it was theorized by Yakool-Foolio that Kanai Ward’s Ultimate Secret’s own Mystery Labyrinth is what most likely led to the city becoming more crime-filled and creating their own Mystery Labyrinths as well.

It’s also important to note that there are other corrupt officials out in the world like the Unified Government who wants to keep their own secrets hidden away to keep up appearances. So it wouldn’t be far-fetched if there were other corrupt forces like the Unified Government and the Peacekeepers who would keep things secrets for their own benefits. Plus, we learned in chapter five that Number One of the World Detective Organization that he is actually in charge of issuing criminals to be sent to the death penalties, as noted here by Shiut, so I think executions and death penalties are uncommon in the Master Detective Archives world. So it wouldn’t be such a big deal for criminals to just die, even if it is inhumane and cruel.

In conclusion, I think the Book of Death is really a tool used in order to bring about the end of the criminals that threatens peace for everybody and could potentially hurt people (people getting framed, the killers killing future victims, exploiting people, etc). Since there is the chance of corrupt police forces not willing to indulge justice as they should and will let the mysteries remain and therefore the criminals free, the Book of Death is a mean to make sure the criminals and mysteries are gone. It’s a morally grey story where it may not be morally right, but it is not morally wrong either with the circumstances at hand. I think that’s what the Book of Death’s intention are, and why Shinigami thinks the way she thinks.

Today!! I decided to draw Shinigami from Rain Code~! Truly one of my favorite partner characters in gaming! <333 I'm a sucker for the looks adorable but can, and will, kill you- trope.

guys i can be funny too see hahaahahahahah

Not to get controversial or anything, but I believe that Melami can beat Goku. Wait what’s that? You need my reasoning? Well I uhh *a Q rushes past* Wait what the hell? Did you see that? That was so weird…

Rain Codes memes, Yakou Edition. Ngl, I’m a bit concerned that my memes have been decreasing in quality lately. I think I’m lacking more Tumblr and Vivia images, and since I don’t have TikTok I can’t easily access images from that site, either. Maybe it’s in everyone’s best interests if I don’t heavily prioritize my efforts in finding Rain Code memes anymore. Then again I’ve built most of my account through memes, so, I’ll think about it.

That’s all I have to say. Have a nice day! 👋😄

YOU DID AMAZING GGRREEEAAAAAAGHGHGH

you tellin me a shrimp fried this rice?

anyway i think he should've used coalescence to git gud at cooking

There’s an end in almost everything. Boyfriends, girlfriends, best friends, tendonitis, etc.

But you know who doesn’t have an end? Melami Goldmine. That’s right folks: Melami Goldmine is and always will be forever. Never forget that.

I made some more Rain Code memes for today, and I’m actually proud of how most of these came out. And before people ask: No, I’m not trying to ridicule Halara in any way, since I understand how my memes can be interpreted in that manner. Halara’s also one of my favorites, but damn if they aren’t also memeable (not as much as Desuhiko, but still). And of course, I had to throw Melami in here somewhere, as usual.

That’s all I have to say for now, I think. Take care, everyone! 👋😄

I think the fact that Melami actually understands Vivia’s view of the world (especially regarding life and death) is pretty cool, given that the two share Fortes relating to the dead. I find it amazing how Kodaka developed their relationship throughout the course of Rain Code, so props to him for that.

There’s also the little teases she often gave him for his unique sense of clothing, as well. God their friendship was so great.

As always, I’ll continue sharing more Rain Code memes as I make them. I’m considering on also sharing drawings in the future, though of course I’d have to start drawing again for that to happen.

If Melami Goldmine has a million fans, I’m one of them. If Melami Goldmine has five fans, I’m one of them. If Melami Goldmine has one fan, that one is me. If Melami Goldmine has no fans, I’m no longer alive. If the world is against Melami Goldmine I’m against the entire world. Till my last breath, I’ll support Melami Goldmine.

Yo, this is my first contribution to the Master Detective Archives: Rain Code community, as well as an actual post of mine in a long time. You’ll notice there’s a lot of images of Desuhiko here, but don’t get me wrong: He’s not my favorite. I just find him to be extremely memeable.
