Electrocution is a lethal method to eliminate students in Yandere Simulator which will not leave any evidence towards the player.
Gameplay[]
- Main article: Corpses
Since there is no open wound on the corpse, the player doesn't have to worry about cleaning up blood, but to avoid a police investigation, the corpse must be disposed of. Ayano can hide it in a bathroom stall or bury it in order to go to class without a teacher finding the corpse. If Ayano does not dispose of the body, the School Atmosphere will decrease by twenty points.
If the police arrive at school before the body is disposed of, they will know that the victim was electrocuted and treat their death as a murder. They will then try to search for any corpses or weapons on school grounds. If no other corpses or weapons are found, they will leave since they do not have enough evidence to perform an arrest. If weapons and corpses are found, the game will treat the other deaths as homicide cases and will begin to look for evidence for all the other deaths, along with the electrocuted corpse.
How to electrocute[]
Using water fountain[]
The first and simplest method of electrocution can be performed on most of the students, except for the Student Council, the Delinquents, Kenko Sukoyaka, Banri Masayuki ,Osana Najimi, Sumiko Tachibana, Ritsuko Chikanari, and Chigusa Busujima all for different reasons. To start, Ayano Aishi must acquire a heavy Pipe Wrench from one of the school's storage rooms. She then must head to any water fountain in the school and sabotage the pipes from underneath. This will result in a leak, forming a puddle of water beneath the fountain.
Next, she must get a power strip, which can be found in the Audio/Visual Room. The power strip can be plugged into any outlet, located next to the drinking fountain. After plugging the strip in, she must use a screwdriver to expose its wire. Flipping the switch on the wall near the outlet will activate the power strip with the exposed wires, causing the puddle of water it is in to become electrified, resulting in one victim to be electrocuted if they step on it. Ayano herself can also be electrocuted by the electrified puddle, leading to a comatose, therefore must not step into the puddle and should take precautions such as flipping the switch last.
Lastly, she must head to the vending machines in the Cafeteria and purchase a bag of chips, labeled as a "Salty Snack". She can offer the chips to any student in the school, and the student will accept it unless they are a member of the Student Council or a delinquent, who refuse to accept everything from Ayano, or Kenko and Osana, who just don't want to eat the junk food. These people all cannot be electrocuted using this method, along with faculty members, who Ayano cannot offer food to at all. The player must only offer the bag of chips to the student they wish to electrocute. After they eat the chips, they'll become thirsty, and will head to the nearest drinking fountain. If the fountain has been tampered with correctly, then when the student steps into the puddle to drink water, they'll perform a "being shocked" animation, before falling onto the ground.
In bathrooms[]
Alternatively, the player can electrocute any student who goes inside a bathroom using the same method, by creating a leak under the sink, plugging in a sabotaged power strip, and turning on the light switch. As with the other method, precautions should also be taken towards the electrified water puddle. When the student leaves the stall and walks over to the sink to wash their hands, they will be electrified. Students won't use the bathroom unless the player puts emetic poison in their lunch. Unlike the other method, Kenko and the delinquents can be electrocuted with this method, as they all eat lunch and can be poisoned, sending them to the bathroom. However, Gema Taku, Miyuji Shan, and the Student Council do not eat lunch, and thus cannot be electrocuted through this method.
Using water cooler[]
You can also electrocute using the Water Cooler by getting a spool of thread, found in the Sewing Room, masking tape and any sharp weapon, and the Car Battery beside the water cooler.
Then you must put the water cooler in a doorway, and you must get a bucket filled with water and add it to the water cooler. Then create a tripwire trap by pressing "Q". If a student sees you create a tripwire trap, your Reputation will decrease by 10 points.
If a student walks through the trap, the player must hold the car battery and toss it so they will be electrocuted. It is the same with the water fountain, Ayano must only dispose of the electrocuted corpse, to get a clean getaway.
Ai Doruyashi[]
Ai Doruyashi is the sixth rival in 1980s mode, and has a rival-specific elimination method involving electrocution. Every day before school and after cleaning time, Ai performs a song in the school gymnasium. For this elimination method, the player must fill a bucket with water (the closest one is in the Swimming Pool) and dump it behind the microphone on the gymnasium stage. Then, the player must acquire a power strip (from the Audio/Visual Room) and a screwdriver (brought from home or found in Workshop), return to the school gymnasium, plug the power strip into the light and sound board backstage, and sabotage it with the screw driver. The player must wait until Ai is standing over the puddle of water during her show, and then toggle the electricity. Ai will be electrocuted and killed.
If the player does this correctly, Ai's death will be considered an accident. This is her canonical elimination method.
Trivia[]
- Electrocution through Kokona Haruka's scripted event was added in the August 12th, 2015 Build and removed in the May 22nd, 2019 Build. Electrocution through the water fountain was added in the February 1st, 2019 Build, and electrocution in bathrooms was added in the January 1st, 2020 Build.
- Although the method to set the target for electrocution cannot be done on the Student Council and faculty (and some other students depending on method chosen), the trigger for death is stepping in the electrified puddle and not any specific event such as actually interacting with the water fountain or sink. Thus, if the player somehow manages to make a character step in the electrified puddle without sending them to the water fountain or sink the normal way, such as leaving something they will attempt to look and walk to in the puddle (e.g. weapons), or moving them there and releasing them in Pose Mode, they will still die.
- Notably, this can be used to electrocute faculty members without any sort of cheating, as they run to the first corpse that they see. If a student is electrocuted and their body is not moved, when a faculty member discovers them they will step into the puddle while approaching the body, and can be electrocuted as well.
- A chain of puddles electrocutes anyone who steps into any of the puddles, allowing the player to electrocute faculty and the student council members.
- If a majority of rivals are "accidentally" electrocuted (or murdered with him knowing the aftermath), Senpai will worry that he is cursed[1] and may refuse Ayano's confession, fearing her death.
- If Ayano pours blood or gasoline instead of water on a student, they will still die the same way, but with different voiced lines when the liquid is poured on them.
- Gasoline does not cause a violent explosion when in contact with electricity.
- This is YandereDev's favorite elimination method.[2]
- It has not been confirmed nor denied if the player will be able to electrocute a student in the Shower Room.[3]
- Even though it was impossible to electrocute Kenko Sukoyaka in this method (as he rejects a salty snack from the player, meaning that he can't be electrocuted), there are other possible ways to eliminate Kenko by other methods of electrocution:
- The player can put emetic poison into his bento at lunchtime, create the leaking sink, then use a power strip, and he will be electrocuted.
- The player can distract him with radio, then Kenko will turn off radio while he steps the puddle, then the player can electrocute him.
- Ayano can watch a Life Note anime to learn how to electrocute someone. The episode shows the player what to do with the pipe wrench, power strip and switch at the water fountain (or bathroom sink, which uses the same method).
- If Ayano steps in the electrified water, she will not die instantly. Instead, she will go in a coma, resulting in the "Comatose" Game Over.
- Electrocution via the stage is the canonical elimination method of Ai Doruyashi.
