}}'''Tomoe Nanamura''' is a character mentioned in [[Fatal Frame IV]]. As a child, she was one of [[kidnapped girls|five girls]] kidnapped during a festival. Ten years later, Tomoe died under mysterious circumstances at the same time as another of the girls, [[Marie Shinomiya]].

==Past==
[[File:Kidnappedgirls.jpg|150px|left]]Tomoe Nanamura was born into one of the old mask-making families on [[Rogetsu Island]].<ref>''A Folie à Deux in August - Chapter 5'', [[Rogetsu Isle Reminiscences]], 2023. ([http://fftranslations.atspace.co.uk/ff4/folie05.html#gsc.tab=0 English translation])</ref> As a child she became a patient at [[Haibara Infirmary]], suffering from [[Moonlight Syndrome]]. Unlike Ruka, Madoka and Misaki she was not hospitalized at the sanatorium. She and four other girls were selected by [[Shigeto Haibara]] to perform as [[Organs]] for a secret revival of the [[Rite of Descent]]. Kidnapped by [[Yo Haibara]], she and the others were dressed in ritual attire, including masks created by [[Soya Yomotsuki]], and performed in the ceremony. However, at the height of the ritual the [[Mask of the Lunar Eclipse]] broke, which caused all the girls, Tomoe included, to collapse and lose their memories.

All five girls were taken to the [[Moonglow Cavern]], where Director Haibara could observe their progress. They spent their time there in a trance-like state, gazing up at the moon through a well that opened in the ceiling. [[Shoji Katagiri]], Haibara's assistant, contacted police to report that he had heard voices from the well, which he believed to be the missing girls. Two weeks after the failed ritual, they were found by [[Choshiro Kirishima]] and taken to [[Amanoura Police Department]]. Eventually they were released to their parents, and all moved away from the island.

==A Folie à Deux in August==
[[File:Tomoe concept.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Developers created concept art for Tomoe even though she hardly appears in the game]]
:''A short story published in [[Rogetsu Isle Reminiscences]]. English translation available [http://fftranslations.atspace.co.uk/ff4/folie01.html here].''
After leaving Rogetsu Isle, Tomoe drifts apart from the other four girls, but by coincidence, she and [[Marie Shinomiya]] end up attending the same boarding school. The two quickly become close after Marie, the more outgoing of the two, recognises Tomoe's name and approaches her. Together they begin researching Rogetsu Isle, the [[Rogetsu Kagura|kagura]] and [[Moonlight Syndrome]], hoping to learn something about their past. They come to believe the [[Rogetsu Kagura]] may hold the answers they seek, but they are still missing one key element: the mask worn by the central dancer, the [[Vessel (FF4)|Vessel]].

As her Moonlight Syndrome symptoms begin to worsen, Tomoe suffers oppressive visions of strange masks moving all around her. Her only comfort aside from Marie's company is a faint memory of the Vessel's white mask, and in her hallucinations, Marie's face and the Mask of the Vessel begin to blur together. Finally, in a dream, Tomoe realises she already has the mask they need: a mask from a past Kagura that was never used, and was passed down in her family. She believes the mask resembles Marie so strongly because one of Marie's ancestors was a candidate to be the Vessel, and so a mask was carved to look like her.

Sensing that time is running out, Marie and Tomoe decide to perform a full kagura on the night of the full moon, using Tomoe's mask. By watching the performance, Tomoe too becomes a participant, sinking into a deep trance, but as her memories return, she realises that what she thought she remembered of the Rogetsu Kagura was really the [[Rite of Descent]]. The memory of [[Sakuya Haibara]] [[blossoming]] resurfaces, and at that moment Marie's mask cracks and both girls fall to the ground. Tomoe feels her mind collapsing; in her last moments as herself, she tries to warn Marie to run.

==Fatal Frame IV==
Tomoe is found dead in the sickroom. Her face is horrifically contorted and her hands are covering her face, just like the islanders found dead on Rogetsu Isle eight years earlier. The sudden deaths of Tomoe and Marie prompt Misaki, Madoka and Ruka to return to the island in search of answers.

==Misc. Info==
*A photograph of the five kidnapped girls shows Marie and Tomoe as children, but it is not clear which is which.
*The official website for the 2008 version of FF4 says that Tomoe died in a hospital ward or sickroom (病室) and Marie died at home. ''A Folie à Deux in August'' clarifies that both died at their boarding school, Marie in her dormitory room and Tomoe in the school sickroom.
*She is the second character in the [[Fatal Frame Series]] named [[Tomoe]].
*Tomoe's death is similar to the death of the character Tomoko from the Japanese horror film [[Ringu]]. Both are found dead in closets with their faces in a horrific expression.
*Tomoe was the Bell [[Organs|Organ]] in the [[Rite of Descent]].<ref>''Image #26'', Chapter 3: Ghosts and Other, [[Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse]] Digital Art Book, 2023.</ref>

Midwinter:

(WIP)

In addition to the main story, [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]] has 16 side stories, further expanding on the backstories of both major and secondary characters and ghosts. Side stories are unlocked by obtaining broken spirit stones, and involve visiting various locations around the village. Some side stories are unlocked only after completing the game with various endings, and completing them unlocks "sparkling spirit stones" which change the game's endings when equipped.

===2: Hide and Seek at the Osaka House===
The children's next game involved hiding from spirits. Players who are found by a spirit become one. This too, was taught to the children by their mysteriously absent friend. They said the next game will be in the altar room of the big house.

'''Battle'''
*[[Miyako Sudo]]

===1: The Lost Lover===
There were others, before Mio and Mayu. Miyako collapsed in the Osaka house while looking for her lover, Masumi. Masumi found her in a daze and continued on alone in search of an escape. Miyako couldn't bear to wait. She sought out a vantage point from which to view the village.

===2: Overlooking the Village===
Miyako's mind raced as she looked for Masumi from higher ground. She was reflecting on how she came to be lost in Minakami Village when she caught sight of a person's silhouette inside the Osaka house. She raced back, quite possibly sealing her own fate in that very moment...

===3: Nightmare===
Miyako fell asleep in the family altar room when she returned to the Osaka house to keep waiting for Masumi. She dreamt of being strangled and falling downward. Feeling cold air seeping up through the floor, Miyako dashed out of the room, thinking it was to blame.

===4: Homecoming===
Miyako sensed that Masumi was back, but she believed he'd ventured deeper into the house instead of coming to find her. Suspicious, she followed after him. What happened once she found him? Following in Masumi's footsteps could reveal the truth.

'''Battle'''
*[[Masumi Makimura]]
*[[Miyako Sudo]]

===1: A Way Out===
Land surveyor Masumi Makimura found himself in Minakami Village while surveying a forest for dam construction. His lover Miyako came looking for him, but in the end it was Masumi who found her dazed. With no good options, he swore he'd return, then went looking for a way out.

===2: Into the Darkness===
:Unlock conditions: Complete [[Chapter 3: The Repentance (FF2R)|Chapter 3]]

Masumi's search of Minakami Village yielded knowledge of a network of underground passages known as the Deep Path. Believing it could be a way out, he searched for the entrance, which led him to the residence of the village festival's host: the Kurosawa house.

===3: Untold Feelings===
A kusabi took Masumi's life within the Kurosawa house. He died holding the very ring with which he intended to propose to Miyako. "I have to go back," were the last words he wrote before he became a spirit and set off in search of Miyako, lest he break his promise.

===4: Neck of the Beloved===
Masumi returned to the Osaka house, but not to Miyako. Though he wanted to see her, he knew he couldn't, and headed deeper into the house instead. Miyako went after him. When they were reunited at last, Masumi, now in spirit form, put his hands around his lover's neck...

==Seijiro Makabe==

===1: The Hospitality of the Kurosawa House===
:Unlock conditions: Complete [[Chapter 4: The Hidden Ceremony (FF2R)|Chapter 4]]

Folklorist Seijiro Makabe and his assistant Ryozo Munakata traveled to Minakami Village and examined the documents that remained. Finding that the Crimson Sacrifice Ritual is performed by twin shrine maidens to seal the Gate to Hell, they headed to the Osaka House.

===2: The Duty of the Osaka House===
:Unlock conditions: Complete [[Chapter 5: The Sacrifice (FF2R)|Chapter 5]]

Feeling eyes on him ever since they entered the village, Seijiro realized the Osaka house was built to surveil visitors to Minakami; they were, in fact, not welcome. Nevertheless, they continued on to the Kiryu house, determined to observe the festival they were forbidden to see.

===3: The Ancestry of the Kiryu House===
:Unlock conditions: Complete [[Chapter 6: The Remaining (FF2R)|Chapter 6]]

The feared and respected Kiryu house was the [[Twin Houses|twins' home]]. Seijiro deduced that the village didn't just birth twins-it built them. To reach the Kurosawa house, he must pass under the Heavenly Bridge that links the Kiryu house to its twin, the Tachibana house, where he was headed.

===1: Seeking the Gate to the Underworld===
:Unlock conditions: Complete [[Chapter 4: The Hidden Ceremony (FF2R)|Chapter 4]]
:Objective: Investigate the underground area of the Osaka House

From the crimson fragments of the Kusabi's spirit stone, lingering emotions flow. Seijiro Makabe, upon discovering the Umbral Mound where the martyrs sealing the Gate to the Underworld were enshrined, became certain of the gate's existence. He deduced that somewhere in the Deep Path lay a passage leading to the gate and headed to the underground area of the Osaka residence.

===2: The Basement of Osaka House===
The Osaka house basement hid belongings left behind by outsiders. Far inside it lay the Deep Path a tangle of old tunnels that, in the end, did not connect to the main passage. Seijiro set out in search of the Earthly Bridge, deep beneath the Tachibana and Kiryu Houses.

===1: Reunion===
Seijiro's assistant, Ryozo Munakata, ran into his childhood friends Yae and Sae in Minakami. The news that his friends Itsuki and Mutsuki were dead, however, was a shock, having just exchanged letters with them prior. He headed for an old childhood haunt behind Kureha Shrine.

Underworld

2026-06-01T17:00:06Z

Midwinter:

In the [[Fatal Frame Series]], the '''underworld''' is the afterlife or spirit world. It is sometimes translated as 'hell', but it is neither heaven nor hell in the Christian sense, only the land of the dead. The very [[Miasma|air]] and [[Black water|water]] of the underworld are inimical to the living. Across Japan, there are places where the underworld is unusually close, and in these locations, various rituals have developed to contain, purify, or otherwise pacify the forces of the underworld, to prevent the chaos they cause when they interact with the world of the living.<ref>[[Priest's Manual 1]], [[Fatal Frame]]</ref><ref>[[Disaster Tome]], [[Fatal Frame II]]</ref><ref>[[Piercing the Soul Tome]], [[Fatal Frame III]]</ref><ref name="soyanote4">[[Soya's Notes (4)]], [[Fatal Frame IV]]</ref><ref>[[Mt. Hikami's Strictures]], [[Fatal Frame IV]]</ref>

==Borders and Gateways==
So far, all major settings in the Fatal Frame series have been locations that border on the underworld. The border takes different forms in different locations.

*[[Himuro Mansion]] - [[Hell Gate]]
*[[Minakami Village]] - [[Hellish Abyss]]
*[[Kuze Shrine]] - the [[Rift]], [[Abyss of the Horizon]]
*[[Rogetsu Isle]] - [[Tsukiyomi]]
*[[Mount Hikami]] - [[Shadowspring]], [[Dark Sun]]

Proximity to the underworld can cause various harmful effects, such as the spread of [[miasma]], earthquakes, [[Moonlight Syndrome|sickness]] and spirit possession, troublesome dreams of the dead, and incidents of people being [[spirited away]].

==Names==
*{{jp|黄泉|よみ|yomi|Hades, hell, underworld}}<ref name="fnote1">[[Folklorist's Note 1]], [[Fatal Frame II]]</ref> (also originally referred to an underground spring)
*{{jp|常世|とこよ|tokoyo|world of the dead, other shore, eternity}}<ref name="fnote1"/> or {{jp|常世の国|とこよのくに|tokoyonokuni|land of the dead}}<ref name="rscrap10">[[Research Scrap 10]], [[Fatal Frame]]</ref>
*{{jp|根の国|ねのくに|nenokuni|underworld, lit. land of roots}}<ref name="rscrap10"/><ref name="fnote1"/> (rarely used in the series)
*{{jp|異界|いかい|ikai|other world, spirit world}}<ref>[[The "Other World"]], [[Fatal Frame III]]</ref>
*{{jp|彼の世|あのよ|anoyo|other world, next world}}, in contrast to {{jp|此の世|このよ|konoyo|this world, the world of the living}}<ref>[[Legend of Song 2]], [[Fatal Frame III]]</ref>
*[[Hallowed Realm]] - {{jp|零域|れいいき|reiiki|zero region, punning on 霊域 meaning 'sacred ground'}}<ref name="soyanote4"/>
*[[Netherworld]] {{jp|隠世|かくりよ|kakuriyo|afterlife, realm of the dead, hidden world}}<ref>[[Memo (FF5)|Memo]]: [[FF5M:The Netherworld|The Netherworld]], [[Fatal Frame V]]</ref>
*{{jp|他界|たかい|takai|death, the next world}}<ref>[[Folklorist's Notes 5]], [[Fatal Frame V]]</ref>

The series often uses Japanese wordplay in its names for the underworld and related topics, using different characters to create homophones with layered associations - for example, [[black water]] is pronounced ''yomi'' but written with the characters for 'night spring', and both the [[Tokoyomi Ritual|ritual]] in [[Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir]] and the Sea of Endless Night in [[Fatal Frame III]] are pronounced ''tokoyomi'', but written differently.

}}[[Masumi Makimura]] is a secondary character and attacking ghost in [[Fatal Frame II]]. He was a geological surveyor who [[Spirited Aways|disappeared]] while working in the Minakami area.

==Fatal Frame II==
Approximately one year prior to the events of the game, Masumi was sent to the Minakami region to survey the land that would be submerged once construction of the [[Minakami Dam]] was complete.<ref name="clipping">''[[News Clipping (FF2)|News Clipping]]'', [[Fatal Frame II]], [[Chapter 1: The Lost Village (FF2)|Chapter 1]].</ref> While studying the land, Masumi accidentally stumbled into the [[Minakami Village|Lost Village]] and became trapped. He shifted the focus of his research to the history and rituals of Minakami in a desperate attempt to escape. Several fragments of his research can be found scattered throughout the village.

[[image:Photoofcouple.jpg|left|Masumi and Miyako|100px]]
Although Masumi was reported missing, the authorities called off the search for him after only ten days.<ref>''[[Small News Clipping (FF2)|Small News Clipping]]'', [[Fatal Frame II]], [[Chapter 1: The Lost Village (FF2)|Chapter 1]].</ref> Masumi's girlfriend, [[Miyako Sudo]], believed that he was still alive and went searching for him. Though the two were eventually reunited, Miyako injured her leg shortly afterwards, and Masumi left her in the [[Osaka House]] while he went to find a way out.<ref>''[[MM:Miyako's_End|Mio's Memo: Miyako's End]]'', [[Fatal Frame II]], [[Chapter 5: The Sacrifice (FF2)|Chapter 5]].</ref> Having learned that the [[Kurosawa Family|Kurosawa family]] presided over the village's rituals, he directed his search to the [[Kurosawa House]]. While there, Masumi was attacked by the [[Kusabi]] in a hallway. He attempted to hide in the Storeroom of the Great Hall, where he died holding [[Bloody Ring|the ring]] he planned to give to Miyako.

Unable to accept this fate and longing to give Miyako the ring, Masumi's ghost returned to the Osaka House. Miyako followed him into the back room, unaware that he was dead. As she approached, he pushed her to the floor and strangled her. His ghost, Unrest in Piece, continues to wander the village calling out to Miyako.

===Bloody Ring Sidequest===
[[Image:BloodyRing.png|left|100px]]While completely optional, the [[Bloody Ring Sidequest]] goes into more detail concerning Miyako and Masumi's fate. The player must retrace Masumi's steps based on [[Village Reports|partial notes]] he left behind, with the complete version of each report found along with his vanishing ghost at each location, plus one [[Village Report 5|final report]] once the other four have all been found. It ends with a battle with both Miyako and Masumi and an extended clip of the strangling scene, and rewards the player with his [[Sard|spirit stone]] and final [[Bloody Memo|note]].

In [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]], the Bloody Ring sidequest material was used in Masumi's side story.

===Alternate Endings===
[[image:Miyakomasumipromise.jpg|100px|left]]In Fatal Frame II's [[Promise Ending]], available only in the Xbox version and [[Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly|Wii remake]], Miyako and Masumi are seen arm in arm in the Osaka House, staring up at the sky like the other ghosts in the village, happy once more as the [[Crimson Butterflies|crimson butterflies]] fly away from the village.

In the [[Sprouting Wings Ending|Sprouting Wings]] and [[The Remaining Sun Ending|Remaining Sun]] endings, Miyako and Masumi reunite on Misono Hill, and Masumi takes Miyako's hand as their forms dissolve into light.

==Fatal Frame III==
[[Image:Ff3 Masumi.png|left|120px|thumb|Masumi in Fatal Frame III]]
In Fatal Frame III, [[Kei Amakura]] briefly encounters Masumi's ghost, slashed to ribbons by the Kusabi, in the [[Manor of Sleep]]. The newspaper article [[Land Surveyors Missing]] reveals that the search for Masumi and Miyako has been officially called off, and that the two are rumoured to have been [[spirited away]] by the village.

==Misc. Info==
*In Fatal Frame III, the article [[Land Surveyors Missing]] and the corresponding [[RN:Missing in Minakami|entry]] in [[Rei Kurosawa|Rei Kurosawa's]] notebook both incorrectly state that Miyako and Masumi are engaged, with the latter also placing their disappearance as three months prior. In actuality, Masumi was planning on proposing to Miyako but never got the chance, and the two had been missing for roughly a year.<ref name="clipping" />

}}[[Miyako Sudo]] is the first ghost encountered in [[Fatal Frame II]], [[Deep Crimson Butterfly]], and [[Crimson Butterfly Remake]].

==Background==
Miyako entered the [[Minakami Village|Lost Village]] searching for her boyfriend, [[Masumi Makimura]], a surveyor who disappeared while surveying the land around the site of the proposed [[Minakami Dam]]. After ten days, the search was called off and work resumed, and Miyako came to the forest herself to look for him. Like Masumi, she wandered into the Lost Village and became trapped there.

[[Image:photoofcouple.jpg|left|Photo of Masumi and Miyako|100px]]On the path leading down to the village from [[Misono Hill]], she drops [[Black Bag|her purse]], which [[Mio Amakura|Mio]] and [[Mayu Amakura|Mayu]] find later on. Inside the purse is a photograph of herself and Masumi smiling, and two news clippings about Masumi's disappearance.

As she wanders through the village, Miyako writes in a [[Woman's Notebook|red notebook]]. Miyako, like Mayu, has heard the rumors of a lost village that existed in the forest which disappeared in one fatal night. Miyako also writes of ghost encounters and leaves notes for Masumi, growing in her desperation to find him and leave the village. Her experiences in the village are traumatic, as she sees the ghosts of [[Minakami Villagers|villagers]] and hears strange sounds from beneath the house. Even sleep provides no respite - she dreams of a [[Sae Kurosawa|woman's]] maniacal laughter, twins begging for their lives, and other horrors.

Eventually she and Masumi find each other in the [[Osaka House]]. However, Miyako has injured her leg<ref>''Fatal Frame II Glossary: Miyako Sudo'', [[Zero Akai Chou Master Guide]]. ([http://fftranslations.atspace.co.uk/ff2/ff2gloss.html English translation])</ref>. Due to this, she stays in the [[Osaka House]] while Masumi leaves to find a way out of the village. She waits in the upstairs room for Masumi to return, where her [[Woman's Notebook 8|final notebook entry]] is found, written in erratic and choppy sentences.

[[Image:miyakostrangled.jpg|left|100px|Masumi strangles Miyako]]
When Masumi returns, she follows him to the room at the back of the house, unaware that he has been killed by the [[Kusabi]] in the [[Kurosawa House]]. Although Masumi warns her not to approach him, she does, and slashed and battered ghost pushes her to the floor and strangles her to death. Her ghost, the Wanderer, haunts the Osaka House, still searching for Masumi and asking, ''"Why?"''

==Fatal Frame II==
[[Image:miyakoandmio.jpg|left|100px|Mio encounters Miyako's ghost]]
Miyako is the first ghost Mio and Mayu encounter when they enter the Lost Village. They spot her as they walk down the path, and enter the Osaka House to find her. Upon entering the house, Mayu sees images flashing through her mind, one of which includes Miyako being strangled by two unknown hands. Miyako's spirit leads the twins to find the [[Camera Obscura]], before eventually attacking them in the study where she waited for Masumi. When Mio defeats her, Miyako leaves behind an [[Aragonite]] crystal she had with her. Mio eventually learns the truth of Miyako's tragic fate during the [[Bloody Ring Sidequest]], when she finds the ring Masumi was planning on giving to Miyako.

While Miyako is mentioned in [[Fatal Frame III]], along with her own notes left in the [[Manor of Sleep]], her ghost itself is not present.

==Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly==
[[Image:Zero2011g.jpg|left|115px]]Miyako was featured prominently in the promotion of [[Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly]]. Her ghost was visible in the first promotional stills, released in September 2010, and was featured heavily in preview videos. 

==Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake==
In the remake of Fatal Frame II, Miyako gets a short side story beginning in [[Chapter 2: The Twin Maidens|Chapter 2]], which shows how she searched for Masumi in his absence and how the atmosphere of the village affected her psyche.<ref>[[Woman's Notebook 7 (FF2R)|Woman's Notebook 7]], [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]]</ref> New notes by Miyako describe a disturbing dream of being strangled,<ref>[[Woman's Notebook 8 (FF2R)|Woman's Notebook 8]], [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]]</ref> and her fear that Masumi no longer wanted to be with her,<ref>[[Woman's Notebook 10 (FF2R)|Woman's Notebook 10]], [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]]</ref> an echo of Sae's feelings for Yae.

==Bloody Ring Sidequest==
[[Image:BloodyRing.png|100px|left]]While not required to beat Fatal Frame II or to get an alternative ending, there is the [[Bloody Ring Sidequest]] which goes into more detail concerning Miyako and Masumi's fate. The player must use [[Village Reports|Masumi's notes]] to follow his path around the village, and take pictures of the locations he mentions. Completion of the sidequest is rewarded with a battle against both Miyako and Masumi and an extended clip of the strangling scene, as well as a [[Sard|spirit stone]] and [[Bloody Memo|note]].

In [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]], the Bloody Ring sidequest material was used in Masumi's side story.

==Alternate Endings==
[[Image:Miyakomasumipromise.jpg|100px|left|Masumi and Miyako]]In the [[Promise Ending]], available only in the Xbox Director's Cut and the Wii Edition, Miyako and Masumi are shown together in the Osaka House with their arms around each other, watching the [[Crimson Butterflies|crimson butterflies]] fly up from [[Misono Hill]].

This is an error originating in the Japanese text.
*The story of Masumi and Miyako, and Miyako's end, is supposed to hint at the ending of the game. The leg injury that forced Miyako to remain at the Osaka house is reminiscent of Mayu's injured leg. (The nature of this injury is never specified in the English translation of FF2, but Deep Crimson Butterfly [[MM:Miyako's End#Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly|mentions]] that she hurt her foot, and the Japanese uses the character 足, which can mean either leg or foot.)

[[Mio Amakura]] is the main heroine of [[Fatal Frame II]], [[Deep Crimson Butterfly]], and [[Crimson Butterfly Remake]].
She is the younger<ref>零～紅い蝶～, dialogue throughout, Mio always addresses Mayu as [https://jisho.org/search/oneechan oneechan]</ref><ref>''Character Introductions: Mio Amakura'', Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly PS2 manual, p18.</ref><ref>''Character Introductions'', Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Director's Cut manual, p20.</ref> twin sister of [[Mayu Amakura|Mayu]]. Mio has some spiritual power, although not as much as her sister. Through her father, [[Misao Asou]], she and Mayu are directly descended from [[Dr. Kunihiko Asou]]. (''See the [[Amakura Family|family tree]] for more details'')

Mio is the niece of [[Kei Amakura]], who appears in [[Fatal Frame III]].

==Past==
[[Image:Mayuchasemio.jpg|left|115px]]
When Mayu and Mio were little, they lived near the Minakami area. Their mother warned them against playing in the woods, where their father had disappeared when they were still very young, but Mio and Mayu frequently played in the forest in a secret spot. On one such day, Mayu had an accident and was badly injured, and Mio felt responsible, since she had been teasing Mayu and threatening to leave her behind. Soon after this incident, their mother, [[Shizu Amakura]], moved the family away from the area.

In [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]], Mio and Mayu's side stories expand on the events leading up to Mayu's accident. In this version of the story, the young Mayu was almost spirited away to Minakami Village, but Mio was able to catch up to her and lead her back home.<ref>Specters 255-257 and 262-264, [[Fatal Frame II Remake Spirit List]]</ref>

In [[Timeline (FF2)#1988|1988]], the Amakuras heard that their former home was about to be flooded by the construction of the new [[Minakami Dam]]. Shizu returned for one last visit to remember her husband,<ref>''Glossary: Shizu Amakura'', [[Zero Akai Chou Master Guide]], p154-158. [http://fftranslations.atspace.co.uk/ff2/ff2gloss.html (English translation)]</ref> While they were there, Mio and Mayu secretly went to their childhood play spot.<ref>''Mio & Mayu'', [[Zero Akai Chou Complete Official Capture Book]], p4-5.

==Fatal Frame II / Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly==

|source=[[Fatal Frame II|src]]}}
Back once more in the forest, Mio is reminded of her childhood memories and guilt about the accident. She begins to ask Mayu about what happened, but looks up to see her twin no longer there. Mio looks around to see Mayu wandering off into the forest after a [[Crimson Butterfly|crimson butterfly]].

[[Image:Mio and Crying Yae.jpg|left|120px]]Mayu leads Mio her deeper and deeper into the forest. As Mio chases her twin, she notices that Mayu's form begins changing in front of her to a [[Sae Kurosawa|girl in a white kimono]]. Mio reaches out to grab her sister's arm, only to receive a vision of her hands around Mayu's neck. Releasing her grasp, Mio finds herself once more alone in the forest. Hearing voices, Mio follows them to [[Yae Kurosawa|another girl]] in a kimono, crying at a crooked torii gate. Mio can hear her saying: ''"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!"''. Before Mio can get a look at the girl's face, she sees a crimson butterfly flutter past her, and passes through the torii gate onto a [[Misono Hill|hilltop]].

Mio finds Mayu standing at the edge of a promontory overlooking a village covered in [[Darkness|darkness]] and mist. Mayu is surrounded by crimson butterflies, that scatter on Mio's approach. Mio calls out to her sister, to which she only replies: "''[[Minakami Village|The Lost Village]]''...".
Unable to return the way they came, Mio and Mayu explore the village, hoping to find help, shelter, or directions to get back to the forest. In the back of Mio's mind lingers the story of 'the lost village', a village that is trapped in endless darkness, and those who stumble upon it never return. As the twins explore a nearby [[Osaka House|house]], Mayu is overcome with a horrible vision she shares with Mio, and both encounter the spirit of a woman, [[Miyako Sudo]], who came to the village searching for her boyfriend, [[Masumi Makimura]].

It is also at this time Mio discovers an antique camera tucked away in one of the rooms: 'The [[Camera Obscura]]'. Mio takes a picture of Miyako's ghost, and discovers the true potential of the camera. After fighting Miyako, Mio awakens to find herself alone in the room. Mayu has run off, leaving only her [[Mayu's Charm|charm]] behind.

Mio begins her quest to find Mayu, as well as to find a way out of the village. She runs into an [[Itsuki Tachibana|imprisoned boy]], who insists on calling her 'Yae'. He adamantly tells Mio she needs to find 'Sae' and both need to escape. He offers his help, and gives Mio vital clues to help find her sister.
[[Image:Miostranglemayu.jpg|right|115px]]
As the night lingers on and on, Mio finds her sister Mayu, only to be separated from her again by ghosts, sealed doors, and other strange forces at work. Each time, Mio is determined to reunite with her sister, keeping to her promise that she won't ever leave Mayu behind again. As the night wears on, it becomes apparent that the ghosts are trying to use the twins as part of the village's [[Crimson Sacrifice Ritual|Crimson Ceremony]], and that Mayu is possessed by the malicious spirit of the last [[Twin Shrine Maiden]], Sae. Mio discovers a way to leave the village, but on the point of escaping, Mayu is captured by the ghosts of the villagers, and taken away to perform the Ceremony.
[[Image:MinakamiDam2.png|left|115px]]
Mio follows her sister and finds the path to the [[Hellish Abyss]] deep underground, where the Crimson Ceremony takes place. She fights the [[Kusabi]], the former [[folklorist]] [[Seijiro Makabe]], and exorcises him. In the Abyss below, Mayu is waiting for her. Mayu lies down on the large altar stone, putting Mio's hands around her neck, telling Mio that the ritual will make them one, and this is the only way they can be together forever. As the ghostly [[Veiled Priests|priests]] around them strike their staffs, Mio encloses her hands around her sister's neck, and strangles her to death.

Mio releases her grip on her sister's lifeless body, speechless at what has just occurred. The [[Mourners]] grab Mayu's lifeless body and throw it into the Abyss, and a crimson butterfly emerges from it. Mio desperately chases after the butterfly, crying. It leads her out of the village, and it flutters back to her for a second before joining the other thousands of crimson butterflies in the sky.

Many days later (actual time not determined, but within that same year), Mio is overlooking the new Minakami Dam where the forest once was. Now that she is a [[Remaining]], she has a visible glowing mark of a crimson butterfly on her throat.

==Fatal Frame III==
{{quote
|quote=I won't leave you... I'll go too...
|speaker=Mio Amakura
|listener=(to [[Mayu Amakura]]
|source=[[Fatal Frame III|src]]}}

A week after she and Mayu were reported missing, Mio is discovered alone in the forest. Mayu's disappearance is immediately investigated, but Mio refuses tell anyone what has happened. Due to the area's legend of the Lost Village, it is assumed Mayu has become another '[[Spirited Aways|Spirited Away]].'

At some point, Shizu Amakura became ill and had to be hospitalized, leaving Mio in the care of her uncle Kei. He introduces her to [[Yuu Asou]], an anthropologist who is knowledgeable about spirited away cases. Kei mentions the visit in one of his letters, apologizing to Yuu for Mio causing him trouble. Upon investigating an [[Kuze Shrine|abandoned house]] near a deserted village not on the map, Kei comes across the [[Camera Obscura]]. Upon seeing the camera, Mio becomes frightened and very upset. Her uncle decides it is better to send the camera to his friend Yuu instead of keeping it around.
[[Image:Mio_in_Cell.png|left|120px]]
About a month after her experiences in Minakami Village,<ref>Kei quote: "''It must have been about... a month later that Mio started... dreaming of Mayu...''" [[Fatal Frame III]], [[Hour XI]]</ref> Mio begins to suffer from an [[Tattooed Curse|unusual set of symptoms]]. She spends more and more time sleeping, and experiences horrific nightmares. Kei suspects that Mio may be experiencing symptoms similar to those mentioned in an urban legend about the '[[Manor of Sleep]]'.

For Mio, the experience worsens. She feels guilty for escaping from the Lost Village when Mayu did not. She is tormented by the thought that she broke their promise to stay together forever. As Mio dreams, she finds herself once again trapped within the Lost Village, aimlessly following crimson butterflies. Searching for Mayu, Mio apologizes again and again for what happened. She is unaware that her afflictions have also trapped her uncle Kei in the Manor of Sleep. Kei follows after Mio, trying to get her attention in their dreams, but Mio never answers him and continues to be drawn in deeper by the curse. As her uncle desperately searches for a cure for both of them, Mio soon has to be hospitalized, only waking up for around three hours at a time before falling back asleep. Kei leaves her at the hospital and heads for [[Rei Kurosawa|Rei Kurosawa's]] home, in hopes that together they can find a solution to the curse.
[[Image:Ff3meeting.jpg|right|115px]]
After Kei, Rei and Miku find a solution to the curse, Kei returns to pick up an awakened Mio. Mio and Kei visit the Minakami Dam together, and Kei introduces Mio to Rei Kurosawa and Miku Hinasaki.

===Translation Error===
In the overseas versions of Fatal Frame III, there is a serious translation error involving continuity. An in-game article states that both Mayu and her mother Shizu have disappeared in the Minakami area. The Japanese reads ''"Mayu Amakura, the daughter of Shizu Amakura"'' but was translated as ''"Mayu Amakura and Shizu Amakura"'' instead. According to current sources, Shizu is still alive, she's just severely ill in hospital. Her hospitalization was also mentioned in earlier pre-game articles in Famitsu gaming magazine.

==Alternative Endings==
===Fatal Frame II===
[[Image:Mio Runaway Ending.jpg|right|120px]]
'''[[Lingering Scent Ending]]''' - In this ending, Mio leaves the village through the [[Kureha Shrine]], right before the Crimson Sacrifice Ritual is about to start. As she escapes through the tunnels, Sae chases after her and grabs her. Mio screams and wakes up, finding herself all alone in the forest. (While getting this ending results in a ''''Game Over'''', it is considered one of the official endings). 

[[Image:Miomayuhaend.jpg|right|120px]]
'''[[Hellish Abyss Ending]]''' - In this ending, Mio fights Sae and grabs Mayu before she falls into the Abyss along with Sae. As Mio pulls her sister up, however, she is tempted to look down into the Hellish Abyss, against Itsuki's advice. Upon looking into it, Mio is overcome with the horrific images of the sacrificed spirits. Mio and Mayu make their way out of the village. Many days later, Mio and Mayu are together, overlooking the completed Minakami Dam. It is revealed that Mio is now permanently blinded by the Abyss, and Mayu smiles, happy that her sister now has to rely on her. 

[[image:miomayupromise.jpg|right|120px]]
'''[[Promise Ending]]''' - Only available in the Xbox version and Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly. Mio is able to save Mayu by defeating Sae and reuniting her with her sister Yae. She reaches for her sister, pulling her away from Sae's spirit before both she and Yae jump into the Hellish Abyss together to complete the ritual. Mio and Mayu walk out, hand-in-hand, guided by Sae and Yae's butterfly which joins the others. 

===Fatal Frame II: Deep Crimson Butterfly===
[[Image:Frozenbutterflyending.jpg‎|right|120px]]
'''[[Frozen Butterfly Ending]]''' - Mio is able to save Mayu from the ritual, taking a final photo that seems to separate her sister from [[Sae]]. However, Mayu still wishes to go through with the ritual and attempts to have Mio strangle her. Mio refuses, pushing Mayu away. Mayu admits that she didn't think Mio would truly let them be one, and is okay with living in hell as long as they're together. She transforms into a laughing Sae, flashing to the night of the [[Repentance]]. Mio then realizes she has seen the laughing before, flashing back to when Mayu was injured, and laughing while crying at the same time. Mayu becomes herself again, telling Mio, "Let us be together... together forever." Mio is next seen with her eyes open, lying on Mayu's lap in the Kurosawa Hall amongst other bodies from the Repentance. Mayu tenderly strokes her sister's head. After the credits, Mayu sits in the Doll Stand Room with a lifeless Mio in her lap. Smiling, she paints Mio's lips with a brush, and licks away the tear that forms at the corner of Mio's eye. 

[[Image:Shadowfestivalending.jpg‎|right|120px]]
'''[[Shadow Festival Ending]]''' - After Mio defeats the Kusabi, she makes her way to the [[Hellish Abyss]]. Running past her are [[Veiled Priest]]s trying to flee [[The Repentance]]. Mayu, sitting in front of the Abyss, tells her sister that she is too late, and that [[The Repentance]] is near. She says that Mio should have saved herself. Mio however replies that she could never live with herself if she ran away alone, and that she wants to be with her sister, even if it's only for this short time. "This time, we fall together," she says, as the [[Darkness]] erupts from the Abyss. The scene then switches to that of a [[Shadow Festival|festival]], which the twins, dressed in yukatas, are attending. Hundreds of lanterns are released into the night sky, and both Mio and Mayu wish that that day would last forever. The scene switches back to the twins being consumed by the Darkness. Itsuki is seen with a Crimson Butterfly on his hand, before it flies away, and the Darkness once again engulfs the village. In the end the twins covered in a crimson kimono are sitting hand in hand forever together in the Darkness.

===Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake===
[[File:Ff2sproutingwingsending.png|right|120px]]
'''[[Sprouting Wings Ending]]''' - After battling Sae, Mio is too late to catch Mayu as she falls, and both of them fall into the Abyss together. As Mio's body dissolves in the darkness, she sees memories of their childhood. Mayu's voice says that a world without Mio has no meaning, and Mio replies that the world is beautiful because Mayu is in it. Finally, Mio and Mayu are able to understand and accept each other's feelings, and Sae and Yae's spirits help them to join hands and embrace. In that moment, a new crimson butterfly is born, and the curse on the village is broken. Mio and Mayu awake by the stream in the sunlight, remarking to each other that what they saw was beautiful.

[[File:Remaining Sun.jpg|right|120px]]
'''[[The Remaining Sun Ending]]''' - In an epilogue to the Sprouting Wings ending, Mio and Mayu visit Minakami Dam, and watch butterflies dancing over the lake in the light of the setting sun. Mio says that the thoughts and feelings of the villagers will remain with her, along with her love for Mayu. Mayu takes her hand and leads the way back home.

===Fatal Frame III===
In the normal ending of Fatal Frame III, Mio's fate is left unanswered. In the events of the game, Kei mentions leaving her at the hospital, still suffering from the [[Tattooed Curse]] symptoms and getting progressively worse. The ending shows no information on what happens to Mio after Kei's suggested demise.

==Design & Costumes==
Unlike [[Miku's Character Design|Miku Hinasaki]], Mio's appearance was not changed or altered to reflect a regional change for the PS2 and Xbox releases of Fatal Frame II. When wearing her gothic lolita outfit, Mio has a butterfly tattoo. In the Xbox ''Director's Cut'' version of Fatal Frame II, unlockable costumes for Mio include Kasumi's outfit from Dead Or Alive and Reina's outfit from Deception 3: Dark Delusion.

An updated and more mature [[Default Mio & Mayu Costume (DCB)|outfit version]] for both of the twins is seen in [[Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly]]. More emphasis has been placed on the back of the costumes to coincide with the new over-the-shoulder camera angles.

==Past==
[[image:mayuchasemio.jpg|left|120px|Mayu chasing Mio]]
When Mayu and Mio were little, they lived near the Minakami area. Their mother warned them against playing in the woods, where their father had disappeared when they were still very young, but Mio and Mayu frequently played in the forest in a secret spot. One day the girls were playing, running along the top of a ravine. Mio, who was quite a bit ahead of Mayu, teased her sister saying that if Mayu did not hurry she would leave her behind. Struggling to catch up, Mayu tripped and fell down the ravine. As a result, her right leg was severely injured. Mayu walks with a limp and keeps her knee bandaged at all times.

In [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]], Mio and Mayu's side stories expand on the events leading up to Mayu's accident. In this version of the story, the young Mayu was almost spirited away to Minakami Village, but Mio was able to catch up to her and lead her back home.<ref>Specters 255-257 and 262-264, [[Fatal Frame II Remake Spirit List]]</ref>

[[image:mayufallen.jpg|left|120px|Mayu falls and injures her leg]]
Soon after this incident, their mother, [[Shizu Amakura]], moved the family away from the area.

In [[Timeline (FF2)#1988|1988]], the Amakuras heard that their former home was about to be flooded by the construction of the new [[Minakami Dam]]. Shizu returned for one last visit to remember her husband.<ref>''Glossary: Shizu Amakura'', [[Zero Akai Chou Master Guide]], p154-158.

==Fatal Frame II / Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly==
[[image:mayubutterfly.jpg|left|100px|Mayu is lured away by a Crimson Butterfly]]
While Mio was lost in thought about Mayu's accident years ago, a [[Crimson Butterfly]] caught Mayu's attention and began to lure her away. When Mio noticed her sister was gone, she began to chase after her, calling her to come back. As they ventured deep into the woods, Mayu's form began to seem overlaid with that of a [[Sae Kurosawa|woman in a white kimono]]. When Mio reached out and grabbed Mayu's shoulder she was struck with a vision of her own hands around Mayu's neck.

When Mio finally found her sister, Mayu was standing atop [[Misono Hill]]. As she turned, a swarm of Crimson Butterflies floated up around her. Mayu whispered, ''"The Lost Village..."'' She then explained that she had heard about a [[Minakami Village|village]] trapped in repeating a night of death and a secret ceremony. Seeing that the way they had come was now blocked off, the twins had no choice but to explore the village to find a way out.

Upon entering the [[Osaka House]], Mayu gets a series of violent and disturbing visions. She grabs Mio's hand and shares the vision with her. Terrified and confused, the twins continue their exploration. They eventually find the [[Camera Obscura]] tucked away in one of the house's rooms. Mio becomes frightened and accidentally takes a picture of the ghost of [[Miyako Sudo]], one of the women from Mayu's earlier vision. Thus, the true power of the camera is revealed.

After exorcising Miyako's ghost with the camera, Mio passes out, and Mayu leaves the house in pursuit of another crimson butterfly, leaving only her [[Mayu's Charm|charm]], a magatama, behind. In a trance, Mayu wanders into [[Kurosawa House]], and in the bloodstained [[Great Hall]], she encounters the ghost of [[Sae Kurosawa]], a girl who was long ago abandoned by her twin sister. Sae possesses Mayu, and gradually the lines between the two begin to blur. It becomes clear that the village wishes to use Mio and Mayu as [[Twin Shrine Maidens]] in the [[Crimson Sacrifice Ritual]].

Mio finds Mayu in the Doll Stand Room, which was once Sae's. Together they explore Kurosawa House, looking for a way out. While they are examining the [[Cell]], the heavy door slams shut and locks itself, trapping Mayu in the Cell. Mio goes to look for a key, but the idea of Mio leaving her, even for a short time, terrifies Mayu and increases Sae's influence over her. While Mio is searching the Osaka House, Mayu escapes the cell and goes to the [[Tachibana House]]. Mio continues to search for her, pursued aggressively by Sae, who sometimes speaks in Mayu's voice, reminding Mio of their promise, and sometimes calls her '[[Yae]]' and accuses her of wanting to run away again.

Finally they are reunited, and Mio discovers a way out of the village through the [[Kureha Shrine]]. Just as they reach the top of the shrine staircase, however, Mayu is caught by a group of [[Minakami Villagers|villagers]] and taken to the Kurosawa House again.

[[image:miostranglemayu.jpg|left|100px|Mio and Mayu perform the ritual]]
Mio finds Mayu waiting for her at the edge of the [[Hellish Abyss]]. Mayu lies back on the stone altar and tells Mio that she understands the two cannot be together forever, but by performing the ritual, they can become one. As the ghostly priests surrounding them strike their staffs against the floor, Mayu places Mio's hands around her neck. Upon her urging, Mio strangles her to death.

As Mio steps back, the [[Mourners]] come forward and throw Mayu's body into the Hellish Abyss. A single Crimson Butterfly emerges and whispers, ''"Thank you."'' Mio chases the butterfly out of the village, sobbing and apologizing. The Crimson Butterfly hesitates and flutters back to Mio's outstretched hand once more before leaving to join the others.

==Fatal Frame III==
[[Image:Mio Mayu Photo ff3.png|left|120px]]Mayu plays a very minor role in [[Fatal Frame III]]. Though her spirit is never seen, it is known that Mio is pursuing her throughout the [[Manor of Sleep]]. When Kei takes a photo of Mio and some Crimson Butterflies with the Camera Obscura, Mayu's form appears in the developed photo. It is revealed in notes that she is considered missing (possibly [[spirited away]]), and Mio has never talked about what happened.

===Translation Error===
In the US version of Fatal Frame III, there is a serious translation error involving continuity. In an in-game article, it states that both Mayu and her mother Shizu have disappeared in the Minakami area. The Japanese reads ''"Mayu Amakura the daughter of Shizu Amakura"'' but was translated as ''"Mayu Amakura and Shizu Amakura"'' instead. Shizu is still very much alive, she's just severely ill. Her hospitalization was also mentioned in earlier pre-game articles in Famitsu gaming magazine.

==Alternate Endings==
===Fatal Frame II===
[[Image:Mio Runaway Ending.jpg|right|100px]]
'''[[Lingering Scent Ending]]''' - In this ending, Mio leaves the village through the Kureha Shrine, right before the Crimson Sacrifice Ritual is about to start. As she escapes through the tunnels, Sae chases after her and grabs her. Mio screams and wakes up, finding herself all alone in the forest. (While getting this ending results in a '''''Game Over''''', it is considered one of the official endings). 

[[image:miomayuhaend.jpg|right|100px|Mio is blind in the Hellish Abyss Ending]]
'''[[Hellish Abyss Ending]]:''' Mio fights the ghost of Sae Kurosawa with the Camera Obscura. As she takes the last picture, the spirit of Sae is broken apart from Mayu. Mio rushes forward, and grabs her sister's hand to keep her from falling into the Hellish Abyss. As Mio pulls Mayu up; however, she looks into the Abyss. She is overcome by the horrific images of trapped souls trying to escape. The twins are found passed out in the woods. Some time later, the two return to the area and are looking out over the lake the dam has made. Mayu tells Mio it is time to go. When Mio rises, her eyes are bandaged, and it becomes obvious that the Abyss blinded her. Mayu smiles, knowing that now Mio will always need her. 

[[image:miomayupromise.jpg|right|100px|Mio and Mayu in the Promise Ending]]
'''[[Promise Ending]]:''' As Mio passes through the last torii gate on the way to the Hellish Abyss, Yae's spirit leaves her body and reunites with Sae. Mio runs forward and grabs Mayu out of Sae before the [[Kurosawa Family|Kurosawa]] twins plunge into the Abyss to complete their ritual. As the twins exit the village, guided by Crimson Butterflies, Mayu confesses that she was always overwhelmed by the idea that they would grow apart, but she recognises ever since her accident, Mio has kept her promise. Mio tells her that even if they can't become one, she will never let Mayu go again.

===Fatal Frame II: Deep Crimson Butterfly===
[[Image:Frozenbutterflyending.jpg‎|right|120px]]
'''[[Frozen Butterfly Ending]]''' - Mio is able to save Mayu from the ritual, taking a final photo that seems to separate her sister from [[Sae]]. However, Mayu still wishes to go through with the ritual and attempts to have Mio strangle her. Mio refuses, pushing Mayu away. Mayu admits that she didn't think Mio would truly let them be one, and is okay with living in hell as long as they're together. She transforms into a laughing Sae, flashing to the night of the [[Repentance]]. Mio then realizes she has seen the laughing before, flashing back to when Mayu was injured, and laughing while crying at the same time. Mayu becomes herself again, telling Mio, "Let us be together... together forever." Mio is next seen with her eyes open, lying on Mayu's lap in the Kurosawa Hall amongst other bodies from the Repentance. Mayu tenderly strokes her sister's head. After the credits, Mayu sits in the Doll Stand Room with a lifeless Mio in her lap. Smiling, she paints Mio's lips with a brush, and licks away the tear that forms at the corner of Mio's eye. 

[[Image:Shadowfestivalending.jpg‎|right|120px]]
'''[[Shadow Festival Ending]]''' - After Mio defeats the Kusabi, she makes her way to the [[Hellish Abyss]]. Running past her are [[Veiled Priest]]s trying to flee [[The Repentance]]. Mayu, sitting in front of the Abyss, tells her sister that she is too late, and that [[The Repentance]] is near. She says that Mio should have saved herself. Mio however replies that she could never live with herself if she ran away alone, and that she wants to be with her sister, even if it's only for this short time. "This time, we fall together," she says, as the [[Darkness]] erupts from the Abyss. The scene then switches to that of a [[Shadow Festival|festival]], which the twins, dressed in yukatas, are attending. Hundreds of lanterns are released into the night sky, and both Mio and Mayu wish that that day would last forever. The scene switches back to the twins being consumed by the Darkness. Itsuki is seen with a Crimson Butterfly on his hand, before it flies away, and the Darkness once again engulfs the village. In the end the twins covered in a crimson kimono are sitting hand in hand forever together in the Darkness.

===Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake===
[[File:Ff2sproutingwingsending.png|right|120px]]
'''[[Sprouting Wings Ending]]''' - After battling Sae, Mio is too late to catch Mayu as she falls, and both of them fall into the Abyss together. As Mio's body dissolves in the darkness, she sees memories of their childhood. Mayu's voice says that a world without Mio has no meaning, and Mio replies that the world is beautiful because Mayu is in it. Finally, Mio and Mayu are able to understand and accept each other's feelings, and Sae and Yae's spirits help them to join hands and embrace. In that moment, a new crimson butterfly is born, and the curse on the village is broken. Mio and Mayu awake by the stream in the sunlight, remarking to each other that what they saw was beautiful.

[[File:Remaining Sun.jpg|right|120px]]
'''[[The Remaining Sun Ending]]''' - In an epilogue to the Sprouting Wings ending, Mio and Mayu visit Minakami Dam, and watch butterflies dancing over the lake in the light of the setting sun. Mio says that the thoughts and feelings of the villagers will remain with her, along with her love for Mayu. Mayu takes her hand and leads the way back home.

==Design & Costumes==
Unlike [[Miku's Character Design|Miku Hinasaki]], Mayu's appearance was not changed or altered to reflect a regional change for the PS2 and Xbox releases of Fatal Frame II.

Mayu's [[Default Mio & Mayu Costume (DCB)|design]] was updated in [[Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly]] to reflect a more mature concept of the character. More emphasis was placed on the back of Mio's costume to coincide with the new over-the-shoulder camera view, while Mayu's was intended to be more interesting when viewed from the front. The loose, fluttering design of the sleeves is also meant to suggest butterfly wings.<ref>''Deep Crimson Butterfly: Visual Gallery'', [[Zero Shinku no Chou Walkthrough and Data Collection Book]], p4-11. ([http://fftranslations.atspace.co.uk/dcb/visgal.html English translation])</ref>

Mayu's design has received a third update for [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]]. The layered black skirt and soft, fluttering short sleeves are similar to those in Deep Crimson Butterfly, while the high collar is reminiscent of her original outfit. Both Mio and Mayu now have ribbons at the back of their outfits, suggesting butterfly wings, but the butterfly-shaped red ribbon at the front, a common feature in both Fatal Frame II and Deep Crimson Butterfly, has now been changed into a bow with a softer shape.

[[Mio Amakura]] is the main heroine of [[Fatal Frame II]], [[Deep Crimson Butterfly]], and [[Crimson Butterfly Remake]].
She is the younger<ref>零～紅い蝶～, dialogue throughout, Mio always addresses Mayu as [https://jisho.org/search/oneechan oneechan]</ref><ref>''Character Introductions: Mio Amakura'', Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly PS2 manual, p18.</ref><ref>''Character Introductions'', Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Director's Cut manual, p20.</ref> twin sister of [[Mayu Amakura|Mayu]]. Mio has some spiritual power, although not as much as her sister. Through her father, [[Misao Asou]], she and Mayu are directly descended from [[Dr. Kunihiko Asou]]. (''See the [[Amakura Family|family tree]] for more details'')

Mio is the niece of [[Kei Amakura]], who appears in [[Fatal Frame III]].

==Past==
[[Image:Mayuchasemio.jpg|left|115px]]
When Mayu and Mio were little, they lived near the Minakami area. Their mother warned them against playing in the woods, where their father had disappeared when they were still very young, but Mio and Mayu frequently played in the forest in a secret spot. On one such day, Mayu had an accident and was badly injured, and Mio felt responsible, since she had been teasing Mayu and threatening to leave her behind. Soon after this incident, their mother, [[Shizu Amakura]], moved the family away from the area.

In [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]], Mio and Mayu's side stories expand on the events leading up to Mayu's accident. In this version of the story, the young Mayu was almost spirited away to Minakami Village, but Mio was able to catch up to her and lead her back home.<ref>Specters 255-257 and 262-264, [[Fatal Frame II Remake Spirit List]]</ref>

In [[Timeline (FF2)#1988|1988]], the Amakuras heard that their former home was about to be flooded by the construction of the new [[Minakami Dam]]. Shizu returned for one last visit to remember her husband,<ref>''Glossary: Shizu Amakura'', [[Zero Akai Chou Master Guide]], p154-158. [http://fftranslations.atspace.co.uk/ff2/ff2gloss.html (English translation)]</ref> While they were there, Mio and Mayu secretly went to their childhood play spot.<ref>''Mio & Mayu'', [[Zero Akai Chou Complete Official Capture Book]], p4-5.

|source=[[Fatal Frame II|src]]}}
Back once more in the forest, Mio is reminded of her childhood memories and guilt about the accident. She begins to ask Mayu about what happened, but looks up to see her twin no longer there. Mio looks around to see Mayu wandering off into the forest after a [[Crimson Butterfly|crimson butterfly]].

[[Image:Mio and Crying Yae.jpg|left|120px]]Mayu leads Mio her deeper and deeper into the forest. As Mio chases her twin, she notices that Mayu's form begins changing in front of her to a [[Sae Kurosawa|girl in a white kimono]]. Mio reaches out to grab her sister's arm, only to receive a vision of her hands around Mayu's neck. Releasing her grasp, Mio finds herself once more alone in the forest. Hearing voices, Mio follows them to [[Yae Kurosawa|another girl]] in a kimono, crying at a crooked torii gate. Mio can hear her saying: ''"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!"''. Before Mio can get a look at the girl's face, she sees a crimson butterfly flutter past her, and passes through the torii gate onto a [[Misono Hill|hilltop]].

Mio finds Mayu standing at the edge of a promontory overlooking a village covered in [[Darkness|darkness]] and mist. Mayu is surrounded by crimson butterflies, that scatter on Mio's approach. Mio calls out to her sister, to which she only replies: "''[[Minakami Village|The Lost Village]]''...".
Unable to return the way they came, Mio and Mayu explore the village, hoping to find help, shelter, or directions to get back to the forest. In the back of Mio's mind lingers the story of 'the lost village', a village that is trapped in endless darkness, and those who stumble upon it never return. As the twins explore a nearby [[Osaka House|house]], Mayu is overcome with a horrible vision she shares with Mio, and both encounter the spirit of a woman, [[Miyako Sudo]], who came to the village searching for her boyfriend, [[Masumi Makimura]].

It is also at this time Mio discovers an antique camera tucked away in one of the rooms: 'The [[Camera Obscura]]'. Mio takes a picture of Miyako's ghost, and discovers the true potential of the camera. After fighting Miyako, Mio awakens to find herself alone in the room. Mayu has run off, leaving only her [[Mayu's Charm|charm]] behind.

Mio begins her quest to find Mayu, as well as to find a way out of the village. She runs into an [[Itsuki Tachibana|imprisoned boy]], who insists on calling her 'Yae'. He adamantly tells Mio she needs to find 'Sae' and both need to escape. He offers his help, and gives Mio vital clues to help find her sister.
[[Image:Miostranglemayu.jpg|right|115px]]
As the night lingers on and on, Mio finds her sister Mayu, only to be separated from her again by ghosts, sealed doors, and other strange forces at work. Each time, Mio is determined to reunite with her sister, keeping to her promise that she won't ever leave Mayu behind again. As the night wears on, it becomes apparent that the ghosts are trying to use the twins as part of the village's [[Crimson Sacrifice Ritual|Crimson Ceremony]], and that Mayu is possessed by the malicious spirit of the last [[Twin Shrine Maiden]], Sae. Mio discovers a way to leave the village, but on the point of escaping, Mayu is captured by the ghosts of the villagers, and taken away to perform the Ceremony.
[[Image:MinakamiDam2.png|left|115px]]
Mio follows her sister and finds the path to the [[Hellish Abyss]] deep underground, where the Crimson Ceremony takes place. She fights the [[Kusabi]], the former [[folklorist]] [[Seijiro Makabe]], and exorcises him. In the Abyss below, Mayu is waiting for her. Mayu lies down on the large altar stone, putting Mio's hands around her neck, telling Mio that the ritual will make them one, and this is the only way they can be together forever. As the ghostly [[Veiled Priests|priests]] around them strike their staffs, Mio encloses her hands around her sister's neck, and strangles her to death.

Mio releases her grip on her sister's lifeless body, speechless at what has just occurred. The [[Mourners]] grab Mayu's lifeless body and throw it into the Abyss, and a crimson butterfly emerges from it. Mio desperately chases after the butterfly, crying. It leads her out of the village, and it flutters back to her for a second before joining the other thousands of crimson butterflies in the sky.

Many days later (actual time not determined, but within that same year), Mio is overlooking the new Minakami Dam where the forest once was. Now that she is a [[Remaining]], she has a visible glowing mark of a crimson butterfly on her throat.

==Fatal Frame III==
{{quote
|quote=I won't leave you... I'll go too...
|speaker=Mio Amakura
|listener=(to [[Mayu Amakura]]
|source=[[Fatal Frame III|src]]}}

A week after she and Mayu were reported missing, Mio is discovered alone in the forest. Mayu's disappearance is immediately investigated, but Mio refuses tell anyone what has happened. Due to the area's legend of the Lost Village, it is assumed Mayu has become another '[[Spirited Aways|Spirited Away]].'

At some point, Shizu Amakura became ill and had to be hospitalized, leaving Mio in the care of her uncle Kei. He introduces her to [[Yuu Asou]], an anthropologist who is knowledgeable about spirited away cases. Kei mentions the visit in one of his letters, apologizing to Yuu for Mio causing him trouble. Upon investigating an [[Kuze Shrine|abandoned house]] near a deserted village not on the map, Kei comes across the [[Camera Obscura]]. Upon seeing the camera, Mio becomes frightened and very upset. Her uncle decides it is better to send the camera to his friend Yuu instead of keeping it around.
[[Image:Mio_in_Cell.png|left|120px]]
About a month after her experiences in Minakami Village,<ref>Kei quote: "''It must have been about... a month later that Mio started... dreaming of Mayu...''" [[Fatal Frame III]], [[Hour XI]]</ref> Mio begins to suffer from an [[Tattooed Curse|unusual set of symptoms]]. She spends more and more time sleeping, and experiences horrific nightmares. Kei suspects that Mio may be experiencing symptoms similar to those mentioned in an urban legend about the '[[Manor of Sleep]]'.

For Mio, the experience worsens. She feels guilty for escaping from the Lost Village when Mayu did not. She is tormented by the thought that she broke their promise to stay together forever. As Mio dreams, she finds herself once again trapped within the Lost Village, aimlessly following crimson butterflies. Searching for Mayu, Mio apologizes again and again for what happened. She is unaware that her afflictions have also trapped her uncle Kei in the Manor of Sleep. Kei follows after Mio, trying to get her attention in their dreams, but Mio never answers him and continues to be drawn in deeper by the curse. As her uncle desperately searches for a cure for both of them, Mio soon has to be hospitalized, only waking up for around three hours at a time before falling back asleep. Kei leaves her at the hospital and heads for [[Rei Kurosawa|Rei Kurosawa's]] home, in hopes that together they can find a solution to the curse.
[[Image:Ff3meeting.jpg|right|115px]]
After Kei, Rei and Miku find a solution to the curse, Kei returns to pick up an awakened Mio. Mio and Kei visit the Minakami Dam together, and Kei introduces Mio to Rei Kurosawa and Miku Hinasaki.

===Translation Error===
In the overseas versions of Fatal Frame III, there is a serious translation error involving continuity. An in-game article states that both Mayu and her mother Shizu have disappeared in the Minakami area. The Japanese reads ''"Mayu Amakura, the daughter of Shizu Amakura"'' but was translated as ''"Mayu Amakura and Shizu Amakura"'' instead. According to current sources, Shizu is still alive, she's just severely ill in hospital. Her hospitalization was also mentioned in earlier pre-game articles in Famitsu gaming magazine.

==Alternative Endings==
===Fatal Frame II===
[[Image:Mio Runaway Ending.jpg|right|120px]]
'''[[Lingering Scent Ending]]''' - In this ending, Mio leaves the village through the [[Kureha Shrine]], right before the Crimson Sacrifice Ritual is about to start.

[[Image:Miomayuhaend.jpg|right|120px]]
'''[[Hellish Abyss Ending]]''' - In this ending, Mio fights Sae and grabs Mayu before she falls into the Abyss along with Sae. As Mio pulls her sister up, however, she is tempted to look down into the Hellish Abyss, against Itsuki's advice. Upon looking into it, Mio is overcome with the horrific images of the sacrificed spirits. Mio and Mayu make their way out of the village. Many days later, Mio and Mayu are together, overlooking the completed Minakami Dam. It is revealed that Mio is now permanently blinded by the Abyss, and Mayu smiles, happy that her sister now has to rely on her. 

[[image:miomayupromise.jpg|right|120px]]
'''[[Promise Ending]]''' - Only available in the Xbox version and Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly. Mio is able to save Mayu by defeating Sae and reuniting her with her sister Yae. She reaches for her sister, pulling her away from Sae's spirit before both she and Yae jump into the Hellish Abyss together to complete the ritual. Mio and Mayu walk out, hand-in-hand, guided by Sae and Yae's butterfly which joins the others. 

===Fatal Frame II: Deep Crimson Butterfly===
[[Image:Frozenbutterflyending.jpg‎|right|120px]]
'''[[Frozen Butterfly Ending]]''' - Mio is able to save Mayu from the ritual, taking a final photo that seems to separate her sister from [[Sae]].

'''[[Shadow Festival Ending]]''' - After Mio defeats the Kusabi, she makes her way to the [[Hellish Abyss]]. Running past her are [[Veiled Priest]]s trying to flee [[The Repentance]].

"This time, we fall together," she says, as the [[Darkness]] erupts from the Abyss. The scene then switches to that of a [[Shadow Festival|festival]], which the twins, dressed in yukatas, are attending.

Mio says that the thoughts and feelings of the villagers will remain with her, along with her love for Mayu. Mayu takes her hand and leads the way back home.

===Fatal Frame III===
In the normal ending of Fatal Frame III, Mio's fate is left unanswered. In the events of the game, Kei mentions leaving her at the hospital, still suffering from the [[Tattooed Curse]] symptoms and getting progressively worse. The ending shows no information on what happens to Mio after Kei's suggested demise.

==Design & Costumes==
Unlike [[Miku's Character Design|Miku Hinasaki]], Mio's appearance was not changed or altered to reflect a regional change for the PS2 and Xbox releases of Fatal Frame II. When wearing her gothic lolita outfit, Mio has a butterfly tattoo. In the Xbox ''Director's Cut'' version of Fatal Frame II, unlockable costumes for Mio include Kasumi's outfit from Dead Or Alive and Reina's outfit from Deception 3: Dark Delusion.

An updated and more mature [[Default Mio & Mayu Costume (DCB)|outfit version]] for both of the twins is seen in [[Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly]]. More emphasis has been placed on the back of the costumes to coincide with the new over-the-shoulder camera angles.

She has a very strong [[sixth sense]], but she has a low resistance to ghosts. Thus, she is often used by spirits as a medium. She and her sister are directly descended from [[Dr. Kunihiko Asou]] through her father. (''[[Amakura Family|See family tree for details]]'') 

==Past==
[[image:mayuchasemio.jpg|left|120px|Mayu chasing Mio]]
When Mayu and Mio were little, they lived near the Minakami area. Their mother warned them against playing in the woods, where their father had disappeared when they were still very young, but Mio and Mayu frequently played in the forest in a secret spot. One day the girls were playing, running along the top of a ravine. Mio, who was quite a bit ahead of Mayu, teased her sister saying that if Mayu did not hurry she would leave her behind. Struggling to catch up, Mayu tripped and fell down the ravine. As a result, her right leg was severely injured. Mayu walks with a limp and keeps her knee bandaged at all times.

In [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]], Mio and Mayu's side stories expand on the events leading up to Mayu's accident. In this version of the story, the young Mayu was almost spirited away to Minakami Village, but Mio was able to catch up to her and lead her back home.<ref>Specters 255-257 and 262-264, [[Fatal Frame II Remake Spirit List]]</ref>

[[image:mayufallen.jpg|left|120px|Mayu falls and injures her leg]]
Soon after this incident, their mother, [[Shizu Amakura]], moved the family away from the area.

In [[Timeline (FF2)#1988|1988]], the Amakuras heard that their former home was about to be flooded by the construction of the new [[Minakami Dam]]. Shizu returned for one last visit to remember her husband.<ref>''Glossary: Shizu Amakura'', [[Zero Akai Chou Master Guide]], p154-158. [http://fftranslations.atspace.co.uk/ff2/ff2gloss.html (English translation)]</ref> While they were there, Mio and Mayu secretly went to their childhood play spot.<ref>''Mio & Mayu'', [[Zero Akai Chou Complete Official Capture Book]], p4-5. [http://fftranslations.atspace.co.uk/ff2/miomayu.html (English translation)]</ref>

==Fatal Frame II / Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly==
[[image:mayubutterfly.jpg|left|100px|Mayu is lured away by a Crimson Butterfly]]
While Mio was lost in thought about Mayu's accident years ago, a [[Crimson Butterfly]] caught Mayu's attention and began to lure her away. When Mio noticed her sister was gone, she began to chase after her, calling her to come back. As they ventured deep into the woods, Mayu's form began to seem overlaid with that of a [[Sae Kurosawa|woman in a white kimono]]. When Mio reached out and grabbed Mayu's shoulder she was struck with a vision of her own hands around Mayu's neck.

When Mio finally found her sister, Mayu was standing atop [[Misono Hill]]. As she turned, a swarm of Crimson Butterflies floated up around her. Mayu whispered, ''"The Lost Village..."'' She then explained that she had heard about a [[Minakami Village|village]] trapped in repeating a night of death and a secret ceremony. Seeing that the way they had come was now blocked off, the twins had no choice but to explore the village to find a way out.

Upon entering the [[Osaka House]], Mayu gets a series of violent and disturbing visions. She grabs Mio's hand and shares the vision with her. Terrified and confused, the twins continue their exploration. They eventually find the [[Camera Obscura]] tucked away in one of the house's rooms. Mio becomes frightened and accidentally takes a picture of the ghost of [[Miyako Sudo]], one of the women from Mayu's earlier vision. Thus, the true power of the camera is revealed.

After exorcising Miyako's ghost with the camera, Mio passes out, and Mayu leaves the house in pursuit of another crimson butterfly, leaving only her [[Mayu's Charm|charm]], a magatama, behind. In a trance, Mayu wanders into [[Kurosawa House]], and in the bloodstained [[Great Hall]], she encounters the ghost of [[Sae Kurosawa]], a girl who was long ago abandoned by her twin sister. Sae possesses Mayu, and gradually the lines between the two begin to blur. It becomes clear that the village wishes to use Mio and Mayu as [[Twin Shrine Maidens]] in the [[Crimson Sacrifice Ritual]].

Mio finds Mayu in the Doll Stand Room, which was once Sae's. Together they explore Kurosawa House, looking for a way out. While they are examining the [[Cell]], the heavy door slams shut and locks itself, trapping Mayu in the Cell. Mio goes to look for a key, but the idea of Mio leaving her, even for a short time, terrifies Mayu and increases Sae's influence over her. While Mio is searching the Osaka House, Mayu escapes the cell and goes to the [[Tachibana House]]. Mio continues to search for her, pursued aggressively by Sae, who sometimes speaks in Mayu's voice, reminding Mio of their promise, and sometimes calls her '[[Yae]]' and accuses her of wanting to run away again.

Finally they are reunited, and Mio discovers a way out of the village through the [[Kureha Shrine]]. Just as they reach the top of the shrine staircase, however, Mayu is caught by a group of [[Minakami Villagers|villagers]] and taken to the Kurosawa House again.

[[image:miostranglemayu.jpg|left|100px|Mio and Mayu perform the ritual]]
Mio finds Mayu waiting for her at the edge of the [[Hellish Abyss]]. Mayu lies back on the stone altar and tells Mio that she understands the two cannot be together forever, but by performing the ritual, they can become one. As the ghostly priests surrounding them strike their staffs against the floor, Mayu places Mio's hands around her neck. Upon her urging, Mio strangles her to death.

As Mio steps back, the [[Mourners]] come forward and throw Mayu's body into the Hellish Abyss. A single Crimson Butterfly emerges and whispers, ''"Thank you."'' Mio chases the butterfly out of the village, sobbing and apologizing. The Crimson Butterfly hesitates and flutters back to Mio's outstretched hand once more before leaving to join the others.

==Fatal Frame III==
[[Image:Mio Mayu Photo ff3.png|left|120px]]Mayu plays a very minor role in [[Fatal Frame III]]. Though her spirit is never seen, it is known that Mio is pursuing her throughout the [[Manor of Sleep]]. When Kei takes a photo of Mio and some Crimson Butterflies with the Camera Obscura, Mayu's form appears in the developed photo. It is revealed in notes that she is considered missing (possibly [[spirited away]]), and Mio has never talked about what happened.

===Translation Error===
In the US version of Fatal Frame III, there is a serious translation error involving continuity. In an in-game article, it states that both Mayu and her mother Shizu have disappeared in the Minakami area. The Japanese reads ''"Mayu Amakura the daughter of Shizu Amakura"'' but was translated as ''"Mayu Amakura and Shizu Amakura"'' instead. Shizu is still very much alive, she's just severely ill. Her hospitalization was also mentioned in earlier pre-game articles in Famitsu gaming magazine.

==Alternate Endings==
===Fatal Frame II===
[[Image:Mio Runaway Ending.jpg|right|100px]]
'''[[Lingering Scent Ending]]''' - In this ending, Mio leaves the village through the Kureha Shrine, right before the Crimson Sacrifice Ritual is about to start. As she escapes through the tunnels, Sae chases after her and grabs her. Mio screams and wakes up, finding herself all alone in the forest. (While getting this ending results in a '''''Game Over''''', it is considered one of the official endings). 

[[image:miomayuhaend.jpg|right|100px|Mio is blind in the Hellish Abyss Ending]]
'''[[Hellish Abyss Ending]]:''' Mio fights the ghost of Sae Kurosawa with the Camera Obscura. As she takes the last picture, the spirit of Sae is broken apart from Mayu. Mio rushes forward, and grabs her sister's hand to keep her from falling into the Hellish Abyss. As Mio pulls Mayu up; however, she looks into the Abyss. She is overcome by the horrific images of trapped souls trying to escape. The twins are found passed out in the woods. Some time later, the two return to the area and are looking out over the lake the dam has made. Mayu tells Mio it is time to go. When Mio rises, her eyes are bandaged, and it becomes obvious that the Abyss blinded her. Mayu smiles, knowing that now Mio will always need her. 

[[image:miomayupromise.jpg|right|100px|Mio and Mayu in the Promise Ending]]
'''[[Promise Ending]]:''' As Mio passes through the last torii gate on the way to the Hellish Abyss, Yae's spirit leaves her body and reunites with Sae. Mio runs forward and grabs Mayu out of Sae before the [[Kurosawa Family|Kurosawa]] twins plunge into the Abyss to complete their ritual. As the twins exit the village, guided by Crimson Butterflies, Mayu confesses that she was always overwhelmed by the idea that they would grow apart, but she recognises ever since her accident, Mio has kept her promise. Mio tells her that even if they can't become one, she will never let Mayu go again.

===Fatal Frame II: Deep Crimson Butterfly===
[[Image:Frozenbutterflyending.jpg‎|right|120px]]
'''[[Frozen Butterfly Ending]]''' - Mio is able to save Mayu from the ritual, taking a final photo that seems to separate her sister from [[Sae]]. However, Mayu still wishes to go through with the ritual and attempts to have Mio strangle her. Mio refuses, pushing Mayu away. Mayu admits that she didn't think Mio would truly let them be one, and is okay with living in hell as long as they're together. She transforms into a laughing Sae, flashing to the night of the [[Repentance]]. Mio then realizes she has seen the laughing before, flashing back to when Mayu was injured, and laughing while crying at the same time. Mayu becomes herself again, telling Mio, "Let us be together... together forever." Mio is next seen with her eyes open, lying on Mayu's lap in the Kurosawa Hall amongst other bodies from the Repentance. Mayu tenderly strokes her sister's head. After the credits, Mayu sits in the Doll Stand Room with a lifeless Mio in her lap. Smiling, she paints Mio's lips with a brush, and licks away the tear that forms at the corner of Mio's eye. 

[[Image:Shadowfestivalending.jpg‎|right|120px]]
'''[[Shadow Festival Ending]]''' - After Mio defeats the Kusabi, she makes her way to the [[Hellish Abyss]]. Running past her are [[Veiled Priest]]s trying to flee [[The Repentance]]. Mayu, sitting in front of the Abyss, tells her sister that she is too late, and that [[The Repentance]] is near. She says that Mio should have saved herself. Mio however replies that she could never live with herself if she ran away alone, and that she wants to be with her sister, even if it's only for this short time. "This time, we fall together," she says, as the [[Darkness]] erupts from the Abyss. The scene then switches to that of a [[Shadow Festival|festival]], which the twins, dressed in yukatas, are attending. Hundreds of lanterns are released into the night sky, and both Mio and Mayu wish that that day would last forever. The scene switches back to the twins being consumed by the Darkness. Itsuki is seen with a Crimson Butterfly on his hand, before it flies away, and the Darkness once again engulfs the village. In the end the twins covered in a crimson kimono are sitting hand in hand forever together in the Darkness.

===Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake===
[[File:Ff2sproutingwingsending.png|right|120px]]
'''[[Sprouting Wings Ending]]''' - After battling Sae, Mio is too late to catch Mayu as she falls, and both of them fall into the Abyss together. As Mio's body dissolves in the darkness, she sees memories of their childhood. Mayu's voice says that a world without Mio has no meaning, and Mio replies that the world is beautiful because Mayu is in it. Finally, Mio and Mayu are able to understand and accept each other's feelings, and Sae and Yae's spirits help them to join hands and embrace. In that moment, a new crimson butterfly is born, and the curse on the village is broken. Mio and Mayu awake by the stream in the sunlight, remarking to each other that what they saw was beautiful.

[[File:Remaining Sun.jpg|right|120px]]
'''[[The Remaining Sun Ending]]''' - In an epilogue to the Sprouting Wings ending, Mio and Mayu visit Minakami Dam, and watch butterflies dancing over the lake in the light of the setting sun. Mio says that the thoughts and feelings of the villagers will remain with her, along with her love for Mayu. Mayu takes her hand and leads the way back home.

==Design & Costumes==
Unlike [[Miku's Character Design|Miku Hinasaki]], Mayu's appearance was not changed or altered to reflect a regional change for the PS2 and Xbox releases of Fatal Frame II.

Mayu's [[Default Mio & Mayu Costume (DCB)|design]] was updated in [[Fatal Frame: Deep Crimson Butterfly]] to reflect a more mature concept of the character. More emphasis was placed on the back of Mio's costume to coincide with the new over-the-shoulder camera view, while Mayu's was intended to be more interesting when viewed from the front. The loose, fluttering design of the sleeves is also meant to suggest butterfly wings.<ref>''Deep Crimson Butterfly: Visual Gallery'', [[Zero Shinku no Chou Walkthrough and Data Collection Book]], p4-11. ([http://fftranslations.atspace.co.uk/dcb/visgal.html English translation])</ref>

Mayu's design has received a third update for [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]]. The layered black skirt and soft, fluttering short sleeves are similar to those in Deep Crimson Butterfly, while the high collar is reminiscent of her original outfit. Both Mio and Mayu now have ribbons at the back of their outfits, suggesting butterfly wings, but the butterfly-shaped red ribbon at the front, a common feature in both Fatal Frame II and Deep Crimson Butterfly, has now been changed into a bow with a softer shape.

Chitose was proud to be given such an important job, but when Ryozo came to the house, she was too frightened to speak to him, and hid instead.<ref>[[Crimson Diary 3]], [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly]]</ref><ref>[[Green Diary 3]], [[Fatal Frame II]]</ref>

On the night of [[Sae Kurosawa|Sae]] and [[Yae Kurosawa|Yae's]] ceremony, Itsuki tried to help them escape, and was locked up in the [[Storehouse]] again as punishment. Chitose blamed [[Yae Kurosawa|Yae]] for Itsuki's imprisonment.<ref>[[Crimson Diary 4]], [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly]]</ref>

==Fatal Frame II/Deep Crimson Butterfly==
Like other ghosts in the village, Chitose mistakes [[Mio Amakura|Mio]] for Yae, and attacks her, demanding the return of Itsuki. Mio follows the sound of Chitose's bell to discover her hiding places around the house, and after several battles, Chitose drops the key to Itsuki's room.

==Fatal Frame II Remake==
In the remake, Chitose only attacks Mio once, during the final encounter with her. Before that, she goes into hiding and plunges the house into darkness, and Mio must find and photograph her while fending off ghosts in the dark.

Chitose has a side story which sheds more light on her experiences during the [[Repentance]]. It shows how she made her way through the ghost-infested house after the [[Darkness]] came, and found a final [[Bound Diary 6|letter]] from Itsuki waiting for her in his room. Chitose's [[Crimson Diary 7|reply]], which she wrote in her own diary, expresses her hope that Mutsuki will one day be able to return as a butterfly.

==Alternate Ending==
[[image:Tachibanapromise.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Itsuki, Mutsuki, and Chitose in the Promise Ending]]
In the [[Promise Ending]], available in all versions of the game except the PS2 original, Chitose can be seen in between her two brothers, looking up at the sky as the [[Crimson Butterfly|crimson butterflies]] fly away from the village.

In the remake-exclusive [[Sprouting Wings Ending|Sprouting Wings]]/[[The Remaining Sun Ending|Remaining Sun Ending]]s, a crimson butterfly is shown fetching Chitose from her hiding place and leading her to the bridge, where her brothers are waiting for her, just like a dream Itsuki had.<ref>[[Bound Diary 8]], [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake]]</ref>

Tachibana Family

2026-05-30T18:12:21Z

Midwinter:

{{spoilerwarning}} [[File:Tachibana Mon.png|right]]The Tachibana family of [[Minakami Village]] was a branch of the [[Kurosawa Family]], and one of the five important families in the village. The [[Tachibana House]] was one of the [[Twin Houses]], where the [[Twin Shrine Maidens]] would stay while they were undergoing purification before the [[Crimson Sacrifice Ritual]]. There are three named members of the Tachibana family who lived around the time of the [[Repentance]]. The Tachibana and [[Kiryu Family]] crests are the same paulownia design mirrored.

[[Image:Tachibana Twins.jpg|right|230px]]'''[[Itsuki Tachibana|Itsuki]]''' (立花樹月) and '''[[Mutsuki Tachibana|Mutsuki]]''' (立花睦月)

Itsuki and Mutsuki Tachibana were [[Altar Twins]] who took part in the [[Crimson Sacrifice Ritual]]. The ritual failed, and Mutsuki did not turn into a butterfly. Itsuki, now a [[Remaining]], dedicated himself to helping [[Yae]] and [[Sae]] escape the village. He was imprisoned in the [[Storehouse]] for his crime. 

[[image:Chitosebio.png|right|100px]]'''[[Chitose Tachibana|Chitose]]''' (立花千歲)

Chitose was the younger sister of Itsuki and Mutsuki. She had poor vision and would often hide, so Itsuki gave her a bell to ring that would let him know where she was. During the [[Repentance]], she hid in a closet, but became trapped and ended up dying there.

The Repentance

2026-05-30T18:03:38Z

Midwinter:

{{spoilerwarning}} <center>''This article is about the disaster. For the game chapter, see [[Chapter 3: The Repentance (FF2)|Chapter 3: The Repentance]].''</center> 

[[Image:Sae laughing.jpg|right|300px]]
'''Date of Event:''' [[Timeline (FF2)#Year of the Repentance|Unknown]] (sometime after December 13th, 1874) 
'''Location:''' [[Minakami Village]] 
'''Game:''' [[Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly|Fatal Frame II]]

The Repentance (大償, ''ootsugunai'') was the disaster which both destroyed [[Minakami Village]] and engulfed the surrounding region in [[Darkness]]. Villagers wrote to warn future generations of the possibility for disaster, seeing it as punishment for their failure to do their proper duty to the [[Hellish Abyss]], hence the name.<ref>[[Disaster Tome]], [[Fatal Frame II]]</ref> The disaster they had dreaded finally happened in the late nineteenth century; after several failed rituals in a row, the final blow was dealt when [[Sae Kurosawa]], a [[Twin Shrine Maiden]], was hanged alone rather than strangled by her [[Yae Kurosawa|twin sister]].

As a result, the [[Hellish Abyss]] spewed forth Darkness, and a corrupted Sae Kurosawa and the [[Kusabi]] emerged from its depths. Together they massacred the village, Sae laughing hysterically as the Kusabi slashed and slaughtered any survivors crossing their paths. Many of the villagers were killed in the Great Hall of the Kurosawa House. Those that weren't murdered succumbed to the Darkness and went mad or committed suicide.<ref name="MM">[[Mio's Memo]]: [[MM:The Repentance|The Repentance]], [[Fatal Frame II]]</ref>

The Repentance erased the village completely, and it vanished from its spot in the forest. The village itself was caught up in an endless night, and the events prior to the failed [[Crimson Sacrifice Ritual]] continued to repeat over and over again. People who got lost in the woods and passed the [[Twin Deities Statue]], the last remaining trace of the village, would become trapped in the village, and [[Spirited Away|spirited away]] legends were common in the local area. Whenever there was an earthquake, the Darkness from the Hellish Abyss would spread a little further.<ref name="MM"/>

It was not until twin sisters [[Mio Amakura|Mio]] and [[Mayu Amakura]] stumbled upon the Lost Village and were caught up in its events that there was closure. Mio took the life of her sister, performing a final Crimson Sacrifice Ritual that purified the earth<ref>[[Folklorist's Note 3]], [[Fatal Frame II]]</ref> and satisfied Sae's spirit.*

<nowiki>*</nowiki>This follows the [[Crimson Butterfly Ending]] of Fatal Frame II.

}}[[Mio Amakura|Mio]] and [[Mayu Amakura|Mayu]] are reunited, and Mio believes she knows a way out of the village. Together, they search for the four family crests to open the hidden path. At last, they make it to the [[Old Tree]], and Mayu collapses, exhausted.

Mio discovers the pinwheel puzzle still needs one more crest, and leaves Mayu to search for it at the [[Umbral Mound]]. While there, she finds a note about the powers of the [[Camera Obscura]], enabling her to unlock its full potential and face the [[Kusabi]]. Triumphant, she returns to Mayu and completes the puzzle, and the door in [[Kureha Shrine]] opens, revealing the path out of the village. However, as the twins are making their way up to the shrine, they are set upon by villagers, who drag Mayu away. Mio heads back towards the village to find her.

==In-Game Summary==
Mio reunites with Mayu, though her sister's insistence that she'll forgive her no matter what happens leaves her disturbed. Relying on the clue Itsuki left behind, the pair resolve to escape the village.

}}[[Mio Amakura|Mio]] and [[Mayu Amakura|Mayu]] are reunited, and Mio believes she knows a way out of the village. Together, they search for the four family crests to open the hidden path. At last, they make it to the [[Old Tree]], and Mayu collapses, exhausted.

Mio discovers the pinwheel puzzle still needs one more crest, and leaves Mayu to search for it at the [[Umbral Mound]]. While there, she finds a note about the powers of the [[Camera Obscura]], enabling her to unlock its full potential and face the [[Kusabi]]. Triumphant, she returns to Mayu and completes the puzzle, and the door in [[Kureha Shrine]] opens, revealing the path out of the village. However, as the twins are making their way up to the shrine, they are set upon by villagers, who drag Mayu away. Mio heads back towards the village to find her.

==In-Game Summary==
Mio reunites with Mayu, though her sister's insistence that she'll forgive her no matter what happens leaves her disturbed. Relying on the clue Itsuki left behind, the pair resolve to escape the village.

}}Back outside, Mio spots Mayu traversing a high [[Heaven Bridge|walkway]] between the [[Twin Houses]]. While the walkway is accessible from the [[Kiryu House]], the door on the other side is locked, so Mio goes to look for another way in. In the village [[Minakami Cemetery|cemetery]], she finds the key to the main entrance of the Kiryu House, and goes inside.

In order to access the [[Earth Bridge|Earthly Bridge]] and reach her sister, she must repair the doll mechanism in the Kiryu House by finding doll parts scattered around the house. As she searches, she finds notes left behind by a former member of the [[Kiryu Family]], the dollmaker [[Yoshitatsu Kiryu]], and his daughter [[Akane Kiryu|Akane]], a [[Remaining]].

Mio manages to repair the mechanism, but encounters [[Sae Kurosawa]] in the Earth Bridge. As she escapes, she drops the [[Camera Obscura]] and [[Flashlight]].

==In-Game Summary==
Mio returns to the storehouse, but Mayu is nowhere to be found. Realizing the pair are reenacting the tragic history of the twin maidens, she searches desperately for Mayu, who has gone to the Tachibana house. To get there, Mio enters the Kiryu house, which is connected to the Earthly Bridge.
