It suggests that Monoe may have been assaulted, and since Madotsuki finds the picture and cries along with Monoe, that perhaps she also knew about it. She also very obviously fears or dislikes Kyuukyuu-kun. Even though we need to find parts of a photo and show it to her in the school, she is seen crying and screams if we try to come near her. But in this new game, we interact with her far more. In the original game, you can only see Monoe if you used the knife on the backward-walking Dave Spector near the tunnel, then head into the tunnel. We even see some characters receive more development in Yumi Nikki: Dream Diary. That she reacts so vehemently here really reinforces how little she may think of Madotsuki. There is another side to Poniko, and Madotsuki is able to see and force her to show her true self. The only time she acts at all is when you turn the light on and off, and doing so enough bothers her enough that she screams and, as expected, becomes Uboa. She will not let you see what she is working on if you come close. She will notice when Madotsuki comes in, but does not leave her desk. This is elaborated upon when we find Poniko here. She may even become Uboa if the light switch is flicked. In the first game, she is alone in a room and her facial expression makes her seem a bit annoyed. Poniko is another character whose actions in Yume Nikki: Dream Diary suggest more about her.

Perhaps she was a friend at a boarding school who died and the dream suggests Madotsuki feels some guilt over this? She also is definitely not Madotsuki’s friend at this point. These are said to be malicious spirits who suck at people’s souls, and Monoko is surrounded by them. But this time, she appears to be surrounded by onibi, the blue ghostly fire-orbs. It is then that she changes to her stoplight form. After wearing her down a bit, she pauses in an empty, side room. Monoko is giggling as we explore, but when we find her she runs. We first see her in a room filled with empty beds that often have candles next to them. In Yume Nikki: Dream Diary, it seems more clear that Monoko is dead. In the first game, she has a more vacant look than other characters and will change form if Madotsuki uses the stoplight ability, making her look far more unsettling. Monoko becomes a bit clearer, which means we can understand Madotsuki’s relationship with her better. Things have slightly shifted and while the same open world effect is not there, we are getting further elaboration on her mental state from the things we see. She has some of the same effects, like the knife, flute and umbrella. That between this and the events of the game, maybe we are looking at a slightly older version of her. I felt like this was some sort of indication of progression. It is only when she heads to the hall of doors that things go back to the new normal. When the dream begins, she will be outside. But most importantly, sometimes the game will actually turn into the original Yume Nikki. The diary features art that calls back to the original and shows how it changed. One thing that I feel is really important is how Yume Nikki: Dream Diary tries to make sure we realize this Madotsuki is the one from the original game. But when it reintroduces these other women, it gives us an opportunity to perhaps learn more about them and how they relate to Madotsuki. Yume Nikki: Dream Diary is similar in that it is again a wordless adventure. In some cases, they were given names due to titles found in files or given names by fans due to their appearances. We knew the heroine, Madotsuki, but had to make assumptions about the identities of other characters and what roles they may have played in her life. Yume Nikki was one of those games where we did not really know who people were.
