A Guide to Shuuen no Shiori

Introduction

Shuuen no Shiori Project (終焉ノ栞プロジェクト Bookmark of Demise Project), a.k.a. Shuuenpro, is a vocaloid project created in mid-May of 2012 by:

• 150P (music)
• Suzumu (スズム) (story & lyrics)
• komine (こみね) (illustration)
• Saine (さいね) (illustration & character design)

The story falls into the genres of mystery, horror, meta, and supernatural and contains major elements of character death and gore. Other content warnings can be found here (please vote if you know the series already).

The series received 5 albums (by the above team + a few others), 4 light novels (written by Suzumu), a 33-chapter manga (7 volumes) (by Amino Yuki), and a CD drama. 7 songs received official PVs. Its manga synopsis is as follows:

The project came to a halt following late 2015 when Suzumu confessed to plagiarizing ghostwritten works (supposedly lyrics) and earning dishonest profit from them. He then announced that he was retiring from all vocaloid-related activities. (Link to read his announcement about it or a translation of it). It is unknown if this had anything to do with Shuuen no Shiori, as Suzumu wrote lyrics for Vocaloid songs more than just the ones that comprise Shuuen.

As a result of the incident, 150P and komine seem to have retired as well, though without notice. Consequently, although the manga got its own ending in January of 2016, the project itself has not received a proper conclusion (and more than likely never will). You are still welcome to get into the series in spite of this, but be warned; there are countless mysteries unsolved and many loose ends untied.
