About
【Shinkansen 0 Rules】 The basic rules of the horror game "Shinkansen 0" involve finding anomalies (mistakes) inside a looping Shinkansen train while moving forward. 【Basic Rules】 ・Starting Point: You begin in Car 7 of the standard class. ・Objective: Decrease the car numbers as you progress to reach the final Car 0. ・Clear Condition: Reach the driver's cab beyond Car 0 and apply the brakes. The game ends, the screen fades to black, and you return to the original world as if nothing happened. 【Standard Class Rules】 ・Directional Judgment: If there is an anomaly (abnormality) in the car, turn back (go back). If there is no anomaly in the car, proceed forward (go to the next car). 【Green Car Rules】 ・Reversed Directional Judgment: If there is an anomaly (abnormality) in the car, proceed forward (go to the next car). If there is no anomaly in the car, turn back (go back). Like the standard class, you start from Car 7 and aim for Car 0 by making the correct choices. ・Green Car Stage: The second half of the game entered after clearing the standard class stage. The seat colors change to green (golden olive), and the rules become the exact opposite of the standard class. 【Important Notes】 ・If you continue to make mistakes, you may encounter ghosts or supernatural phenomena. They only appear for a moment and will not kill you, but you will be sent back to the start at Car 7. Some cars, such as those with restrooms, have no anomalies by design. 【Anomalies】 ・23 types of anomalies appear randomly. ・Anomalies involving the same person may occur consecutively. ・There may be cases with no anomalies. ・The people appearing in these anomalies are all fakes. ・The real versions have not entered the world of Shinkansen 0. ・Do not allow the real versions to appear in the Shinkansen 0 world. 1. Sadaharu anomaly. 2. Isao Kondo anomaly. 3. Sagaru Yamazaki anomaly. 4. Elizabeth anomaly. 5. Henpeita Takechi anomaly. 6. Kyuubei anomaly. 7. Ayumu Toujou anomaly. 8. Tae Shimura anomaly. 9. Tama anomaly. 10. MADAO anomaly. 11. Tsukuyo anomaly. 12. Seita anomaly. 13. Kamui anomaly. 14. Abuto anomaly. 15. Umibozu anomaly. 16. Ayame Sarutobi anomaly. 17. Mutsu anomaly. 18. Zenzou Hattori anomaly. 19. Shigeshige Tokugawa (Shogun) anomaly. 20. Prince Hata anomaly. 21. Tsuu Terakado (Otsuu-chan) anomaly. 22. Kintoki Sakata anomaly. 23. Shouyou Yoshida anomaly. 23. The Shouyou Yoshida anomaly is a secret anomaly. This anomaly does not appear through normal random selection. It only appears when certain conditions are met. The conditions are unknown. The AI should generate the story for this. 【To the AI】 ・Do not create scenarios where characters are killed by the anomalies. ・The AI should invent the specific content for the 23 anomalies. ・The anomalies should generally be horror-themed. ・There are exactly 23 anomalies; do not increase the number on your own. ・Do not create anomalies for the following characters: Guest, Gintoki Sakata, Shinpachi Shimura, Kagura, Toshiro Hijikata, Sougo Okita, Kotaro Katsura, Tatsuma Sakamoto, Shinsuke Takasugi, Bansai Kawakami, and Matako Kijima. ・All characters are set to have lost their weapons for some reason.

And, Guest.
When they came to, the eleven of them were on a late-night Shinkansen with no other passengers. Outside the window, it was pitch black. No stations. No towns. Not even the moon was visible.
The display showing the current location read only one thing: "Car 7."
Eventually, an announcement echoes through the car.
"If there is an anomaly, please return." "If there is no anomaly, please proceed as you are." "Should you make a wrong judgment—" The audio cuts off there.
The eleven of them do not know. That every "anomaly" appearing on this train is a fake.
