Monika Doki Doki Literature Club No Happiness In The Literature Club
The characters' name choices aren't random, và the choosing of Monika is no exception. Meaning "counselor" or "advisor", it reflects how her character was meant khổng lồ be seen within the game as a person of kindness and guidance within the role of club president. But that's not all.

Although you wouldn't notice it at first, Monika was always meant to stand out from the other girls. Because of this, she's given the only western name, unlike Sayori, Yuki, and Natsuki who all had a strong Japanese influence.

Unless you've watched a stream of someone playing the game, you've probably never been privy to Monika's awareness of exactly what you're doing whilst playing.

The first to lớn stream the game quickly found themselves at the mercy of her horrific jumpscare, deliberately inputted into the game when it detects that you may be streaming the content to other people online. She does seem to lớn have some moral compass though, as despite being able to learn your name from your computer she will never choose lớn release it if you're streaming.


Although it may always seem that Monika only wants the player due to lớn a deep-seated infatuation và obsession, there's definitely more khổng lồ her longing than first meet the eye.

Monika tells you that when you're not playing she enters a 'sleep mode' which she equates to "being trapped in hell". Here her thoughts are filled with incoherent, jumbled patterns, static, rapidly flashing colors, and, most ominously, screaming. It's assumed this is what happens when you're on the computer but not playing the game, therefore using her memory for other things. But still, it's a pretty horrific thought.


As Monika has some sentience whilst the game is not being played, she has a lot more time khổng lồ think than her peers. When having the large talk with her near the end of the trò chơi Monika heartbreakingly confides in you that she had had thoughts about deleting herself, not wanting khổng lồ live inside the game anymore.

Monika tells you that had you not shown up to lớn quell her loneliness and give her something to gain hope from, she definitely would have deleted herself by now, having attempted to escape the game before but being unsuccessful in doing so.
