The emotion chart.

Theory

• The emotions on the chart, and the characters chosen to represent them, seem to closely coordinate with how the party responded to Mari's death in reality.

• Kel chose to act like nothing was wrong, focusing on sports and making new friends to keep his mind off the tragedy.
• Aubrey, feeling abandoned by her friends, became a violent delinquent to cope.
• Hero fell into a deep depression and became a hikikomori for a year, until Kel helped him recover.
• Sunny repressed everything related to the incident and stopped emoting, hence why Omori represents Neutral.
• The only emotion left out of the chart, Afraid, incidentally fits Basil, who became deeply traumatized and paranoid over his actions.
