However, it is later revealed that at some time before the start of the game, she underwent an epiphany which made her discover that she was in a game and also granted her the ability to edit the game's variables, changing her attitude towards the other girls because she did not consider them as being "real". She openly displays care and concern for her club mates, praising each member's writing style and even comparing them to famous authors and poets. Monika was originally a very considerate and kind person who was always thinking about other people. She also has a passion for piano, which she practices frequently after school. She aspires for it to be a place to showcase and grow everyone's passion for literature. The Literature Club, which she founded after leaving the Debate Club, is very important to her. Monika had previously been a part of the Debate Club but left due to all the inner politics and drama, highlighting a desire for order, freedom of topics and friendliness. She always has a calm, gentle expression and is portrayed as mature and hard-working. Monika is also known to be quite popular, which causes the protagonist to have an admiration for her. She is not as talkative as the other girls, but this is implied to not be through choice. Monika is noted by the other characters to be smart, confident and athletic.
