Ayano Aishi holding a dumbbell. June 15th, 2016.
A dumbbell is a non-concealable weapon that can be used to eliminate students in Yandere Simulator.
Gameplay[]
The dumbbells are found in one of the gymnasium's storage rooms. There's only one dumbbell. The object is seen as suspicious and cannot be concealed in the player's inventory, but can be concealed in a bucket. If a student sees Ayano holding a dumbbell, her reputation will drop by ten points during high school atmosphere. She will also be sent to the guidance counselor if caught by a student council member. However, if she joins the Sports Club, she will not be seen as suspicious when carrying one.
Before the July 6th, 2023 Build, the dumbbells would be used to perform the Crushing elimination, though Ayano must reach Level 1 in Physical Education. Ayano will then need to place five dumbbells into a bucket, lure the victim to the outdoor cafeteria, and drop the bucket off the rooftop, crushing whoever is underneath. Currently, it has been replaced with an air conditioner.
If Ayano performs a stealth kill with a dumbbell, neither she nor the dumbbell will get bloody.
Killing Animations[]
There are four killing animations for the dumbbell, depending on Ayano's level of sanity.
- High Sanity: She hits the victim in the cheek with one of the heads of the dumbbell.
- Medium Sanity: She slams the dumbbell into the victims stomach before bludgeoning them over the head.
- Low Sanity: She shoves the victim onto their back before jumping on them, slamming the dumbbell on to their face, raising it up and slamming down again.
- Stealth Kill: She slams the dumbbell into the victim's back, killing them.
