Well i've got a question regarding Ogiue's flashback.

spoiler[Later on we're told by Ogiue through that dream sequence/flashback thing about what happened in her past. Specifically about some kind of suicide attempt. I never really got that part. Did Ogiue attempt suicide, or did the boy who was the "victim" of that comic do?]

I'm not sure myself, but to my interpretation, it wasn't a flashback but rather a dream she had when she was hungover. So it may not be an entirely accurate representation of events.

It may be leaving some interpreting up to the viewer.

I just remembered.
Later on after that scene she talks to someone about how much of a failure she believes herself to be. She says she's failed at everything, even suicide.

That pretty much seems to indicate that she was the one who really attempted suicide, but in the end she didn't.

Er, that incident was not exactly what the thread opener talked about. It was spoiler[a nightmare] as Ganryu remembered in his second post.
