Line 4: \| cause = Unknown \| reported deaths = ~2000 (direct) \| type = Gas leak }} Line 13 ⟶ 14: == The Official Story == The official version of the events, as per the reports of members of the Japan Special Defense Forces (JSDF) states that volcanic gas composed of hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide was released from [[Onigafuchi ~~Swamp~~swamp]]. The gas spread through the village, killing everyone while they slept. The JSDF removed the bodies, quarantined the area for almost 20 years, and covered Onigafuchi Swamp with thick concrete. The event remains ruled as a natural disaster. == Theories == In the aftermath of the disaster a number of theories began popping up online. The most popular theory is one of a government conspiracy covering up an alien bio-terrorist attack. Multiple points are cited in support of this theory: First of all, experts say that filling the swamp with concrete was a pointless act, as it did no good against the gas. Additionally, hydrogen sulfide should have corroded metal and caused significant environmental damage in the town, but there was no evidence of this. The SDF soldiers who worked in the area after the disaster received frequent blood tests, which the conspiracy theorists think give evidence that they were testing some sort of bacteria on humans. The primary support for the alien theory comes from [[File No.34]] and the words of [[Rena Ryuuguu]] from the night prior to the incident, though this file only appears in {{tsumihoroboshi}}.
