Bloody End is one of the bad endings in School Days and arguably the most infamous ending to the game and by popularity it is second only to the anime ending. It is also the easiest bad ending to reach as it has many routes leading to it. It's usually achieved by choosing Sekai and abandoning Kotonoha. In this ending, Kotonoha Katsura kills Sekai Saionji on a train station overpass. This ending is reached when Makoto Itou chooses Sekai but does not completely abandon Kotonoha, which leads her to obsess over Makoto and go into Yandere mode.
This ending has at least 6 routes leading up to it, and Makoto can go back to Kotonoha in 5 of them. On each 5 of the routes is a similar yet uniquely named Kotonoha ending. Those are as follows:
The 6th route however, is tied with With Honesty and Christmas Eve, and happens if Makoto tries to break up with Kotonoha after the school festival and says that he hates her to do it.
In the LxH version of the game, the ending is extended and the extension is titled Cold Scarf (冷たいマフラー).

The Episode starts with Nanami Kanroji and Setsuna Kiyoura talking about the school festival. They run into Kotonoha who wonders if she can walk around with Makoto now that they're broken up. The trio discuss the plans for the "break room" they're building for the school festival and starts to get into a situation with Kotonoha. After that, they discuss Kotonoha and Makoto going out, and because of this Otome Katou lets it slip that she likes Makoto and is planning on inviting him. In class 3, Makoto and the others are preparing for the school festival and he runs into Kotonoha on the way out. After that, Kotonoha and Taisuke Sawanaga run into each other and Kotonoha gives Taisuke the idea to ask Sekai out. During the evening, Taisuke calls Makoto to confirm he's not dating Sekai so he can ask her. Makoto then claims he's in love with Sekai and he only dated Kotonoha because Sekai told him to. Taisuke still decides to ask Sekai out. The scene shifts to Sekai's home where she and Setsuna are making their waitress uniforms for the school festival. Setsuna then talks about the school traditions where dancing with someone at the folk dance will mean they won't break up that year and about the hidden break rooms.
During the school festival, the trio sticks the job of watching the reception to Kotonoha while they all go to have fun. Makoto doesn't have anything to do and Sekai wants to ask him to walk around the festival but can't and Kotonoha also can't ask him because she can't leave the receptionist desk. Taisuke goes over to chat with Kotonoha and then asks her to ask Sekai out on his behalf. Sekai rejects him, saying she doesn't want to go out with someone that has to confess through a girl. After that, Taisuke finds out Makoto is Kotonoha's boyfriend and drags him over to her to help them make up. But before they have a chance to, Otome asks Makoto to walk around with her. Makoto goes, but after Otome reveals how she forced all the work on Kotonoha, he goes back. Before he makes it, Setsuna informs him where Sekai is and Makoto is forced to make a decision between them. He chooses Kotonoha and they have sex in the break room. Meanwhile, Taisuke asks Sekai to the folk dance and is accepted by her. The next day, Taisuke reveals to Makoto what happened and suggests going on a double date to a pool. At the pool, Kotonoha and Taisuke go on the rides while Makoto and Sekai talk near the poolside. Makoto then reveals he's already slept with Kotonoha. To cheer herself up, Sekai kisses Makoto and is seen by nearby people. Kotonoha hears of this and asks if anybody besides Sekai was near him or any couples and then later deduces Sekai kissed Makoto. During the train ride home, Kotonoha asks Makoto to kiss her; later at home Makoto is puzzled by both Kotonoha and Sekai's actions and then goes to sleep. The next day, Taisuke lets Makoto know that he and Sekai are officially going out. During lunch with Kotonoha, Makoto is pushed past his breaking point and runs over to Sekai to declare his love for her in front of Taisuke.
Episode 5 - Sekai[]
The episode starts with a recap of what happened the previous episode and then shows Makoto and Taisuke talking on the phone. Taisuke is upset that Makoto stole Sekai right in front of him but forgives him on the condition that he introduce him to someone. Makoto then decides to get Taisuke and Hikari Kuroda together. He then breaks up with Kotonoha, due to still feeling guilty and hopes she'd hate him instead of Sekai. The next day, Otome comes over to Makoto while he and Sekai are having lunch. She asks him if he was at aqua square recently and figures out she went the same day as him. They start talking about their old days and Sekai becomes slightly jealous at how close they are. Makoto promises that he and Otome aren't like that and are just close friends. He then suggests going to Pure Burger to treat her. As they're about to leave school, Kotonoha asks to talk with Sekai. Kotonoha, not aware Makoto's dating Sekai, reveals that she's been dumped and asks Sekai if she knows who Makoto is dating.
Kotonoha threatening to kill whoever Makoto's dating
Right before Sekai tells Kotonoha it's her, Kotonoha pulls out a fruit knife and declares her intention to kill whoever Makoto is dating and then kill herself. But she thinks it's Otome and decides she can't kill someone as fit as Otome. (In fact she is able to kill even fitter figures like Chie Ashikaga, here she is just uncertain whether that guy being Otome and needs sort of confirmation) Kotonoha then reveals she saw Makoto kissing someone at the pool, Sekai, apparently either forgetting that it was her or feeling extremely insecure, starts to suspect Makoto is cheating on her with Otome. During the evening, Sekai doesn't accept Makoto's call and Makoto spends the entire night talking to Otome. The next day, Makoto reveals he spent the entire night talking with Otome. However, Kotonoha, having heard Otome talk with her friends, thinks that Makoto had sex with Otome all night. Sekai clears it up during PE and Nanami then introduces Otome to Sekai.
During class Makoto, asks why Sekai's been asking about Otome and she then accuses him of cheating on her with Otome. The whole class hears it and almost everyone becomes interested in what's going on. Nanami informs Otome what's going on and asks if its true. Otome denies it, but reveals she has a crush on Makoto. Nanami then wishes her luck if Sekai gets dumped. Makoto asks to talk everything over with Sekai and goes up to the roof with her. Sekai accuses him of kissing Otome at the pool and when Makoto denies it, she says Kotonoha saw him do it. Kotonoha then begs Makoto to date her again. Makoto then makes it clear he loves Sekai and apologizes to Kotonoha and asks Sekai to believe in his feelings.
Final Episode - Bloody End[]
In denial, Kotonoha asks Sekai to stop seducing Makoto and claims that he still loves her. Sekai then reveals she's been in love with Makoto far longer and Makoto loves her. She apologizes to Kotonoha and begs her to give up on Makoto. Kotonoha, still in denial, slaps Sekai. She then goes over to Makoto's home but is sent home by him. The next day, she tries to get close to him on the bus but Nanami and Hikari block her way to make sure he has no contact with Kotonoha.

Two days before the festival they're seen having sex on the rooftop and Makoto ejaculates inside Sekai and is almost caught by Kotonoha because it's leaking. That evening, Makoto and Sekai are talking and she mentions how she got freaked out when it started leaking. Makoto then says if he finished outside on her clothes it would've been even more obvious.

Kotonoha then asks to see the festival with him, but Makoto says he can't but agrees to dance with her at the bonfire. During the school festival, Makoto's busy in the kitchen when Taisuke comes to relieve him. Makoto mentions he's free until the bonfire then is forced to help out. After things calm down Sekai asks Makoto to walk around until the bonfire and they go up to the roof. The festival ends and Sekai's happy she got to walk around with Makoto which made her feel like a couple with Makoto. She wants to dance with him but says it would be going too far.

- Main article: Kotonoha Abandoned
Kotonoha, despite being stood up at the bonfire, is still hung up on Makoto and is emailing him. Kokoro Katsura chats with Kotonoha and makes her older sister admit to having a boyfriend and made sandwiches for him. Meanwhile, Makoto and Sekai are having sex in Makoto's giant bathtub. Before Sekai leaves, she offers to make lunch for Makoto because the bavarois he made for her was incredibly good. Sekai's feeling down because Setsuna transferred and insists on making lunch for Makoto. After she leaves, Makoto remembers Kotonoha's also making lunch for him tomorrow. Sekai comes to school and tells Makoto her mother liked his bavarois very much. Lunchtime comes and Sekai's excited to have Makoto eat it when Kotonoha comes and takes Makoto away to have lunch with her. Kotonoha asks Sekai to join them but she declines, being disappointed with Makoto. During lunch, Makoto says Kotonoha's getting better and Kotonoha asks if he's still close with Sekai. Makoto says no but says they're not on bad terms but aren't that close.
Pick up where we left off
Meanwhile Nanami and Hikari, being misinformed of Sekai and Makoto's relationship, think they're going out and tells Sekai to keep an eye on her boyfriend. Sekai denies that he's her boyfriend and says the only time he said he loved her was when they were pretending and that she wants to keep loving him but don't want things to get weird and for him to hate her. Nanami then starts to complain about her boyfriend and his sister's brother complex. Hikari then mentions the guy she's got a one sided thing for is a long-term battle and she's taken "steps".
Kotonoha cries after seeing Makoto having sex with Sekai
After school, Makoto and Sekai go up to the roof to talk. Sekai mentions that she didn't need to make him lunch and Makoto apologizes. Sekai then states she doesn't want to be the girl he sleeps with while they hide from Kotonoha as it makes her feel guilty. Makoto then apologizes for it and says goodbye but Sekai, not wanting to lose Makoto, says she was kidding and asks to pick up where they left off. Makoto then says he's going to be more honest and truthful to himself and says he loves her more than Kotonoha. Kotonoha comes out of her meeting only to run into Nanami who, despite being misinformed, threatens Kotonoha to make her stay away from Makoto and that he and Sekai have been going out since the start of the semester. Kotonoha refuses to believe it and runs over to the rooftop only to catch Makoto taking Sekai from behind, causing her to break down in tears.
At home, Kotonoha wonders if Makoto hates her now because she didn't do the things he's doing with Sekai now and that it's her fault she didn't satisfy him and masturbates thinking about Makoto. Makoto and Sekai are at Sekai's after having sex where Sekai says he didn't want to do it with anyone but Kotonoha, but Makoto says she's wrong and he loves her. Sekai says she loves him too and she'll believe she's the one who he loves most. She then apologizes for loving him as it's causing all sorts of trouble for him. Makoto assures he loves her more than Kotonoha. The next day, because Makoto spent the night, he doesn't meet up with Kotonoha on the train. During lunchtime, Makoto decides to go to Kotonoha to straight up tell her he's going out with Sekai. After meeting her, he tries to tell her but before that is invited to the roof by her. Kotonoha insists Makoto come alone but she's called to the staff room to submit a late form. Sekai then asks Nanami and Hikari to keep Kotonoha away from Makoto. Kotonoha comes over to Makoto's home and asks to be invited inside but Makoto denies her access and sends her home.

Makoto and Sekai have just finished having sex with numerous condom wrappers, tissues and other items indicating they've had sex an incredible number of times. They talk about recent events and how they have to tell Kotonoha about them because Makoto's in love with Sekai. At school, the festival has started and the trio have finished building the break room. They then bully Kotonoha and asks her to prove she's going out with Makoto. Kotonoha then meets Makoto and asks him to come with her. Makoto's about to say no, but she then says if he's busy he can come later. Makoto then says he's going to see the festival with Sekai.

Sekai then goes back and asks Makoto to take it easy and invites him to the bonfire. Makoto waits a bit before going back to avoid helping to clean up. Sekai then overhear a few girls (probably Roka Kitsuregawa, Ruka Imagawa, Natsuki Hosokawa and Mugi Hatakeyama offscreen) talking about Kotonoha. Kotonoha told everyone she's going out with Makoto and is now being bullied because everyone thinks she was lying. Makoto comes to Sekai in the class and Sekai expresses regret at what she's done to Kotonoha and they can't do this anymore. Makoto firmly says that she's the one he loves and asks her to consider his feelings too.
Episode 4 - I'm Sorry[]
This episode is the same as the above episode until Makoto and Sekai decides to not have sex on the rooftop, rather decides to help with their class with the café.
Makoto and Sekai go back to the class and Sekai stays to help while Makoto goes out. He witnesses Kotonoha being bullied by Otome and her friends and realizes it's his fault. He comes out to everyone's surprise and states he's come to see Kotonoha, then says he's sorry and leaves, effectively dumping her. The girls who were bullying Kotonoha back off and Otome, despite bullying her on a regular basis, encourages her to cheer up and leaves.

Episode 4 - Kotonoha Broken[]
This episode is the same as the above episode until the point Makoto sees Kotonoha being bullied.
Taisuke raping Kotonoha
Makoto goes away, unable to continue watch Kotonoha being bullied, when Taisuke comes to her "rescue". He says they shouldn't be bullying Kotonoha, but the girls quickly turn the argument around by figuring out his obvious crush on her. Otome decides to set up him and Kotonoha and asks him to follow her lead. She then claims they were confused about who Kotonoha's boyfriend was and Taisuke was her boyfriend all along. Kotonoha thinks Otome's misunderstood and tries to correct her when Otome tells Taisuke to take her to the break room to talk. Taisuke says they don't need to go there to talk but Otome tells him just in case and basically tells him to rape her, her reasoning being since Kotonoha's a virgin, she'll resist even if she wants to and will fall for him if he forces her. Taisuke calls it crazy, but Otome then calls him scared which apparently removes all doubt in Taisuke's mind. Otome then lies to Kotonoha to go into the break room with Taisuke only to clear up any misunderstanding that happened earlier. They go into the break room and Taisuke proceeds to rape her and then asks her out. Kotonoha runs away to the bonfire only to see Makoto and Sekai dancing.
Episode 5 - Back to the Beginning[]
Taisuke has asked Makoto to meet his 'girlfriend' and Makoto invites him over to the roof for lunch. To his and Sekai's surprise it's Kotonoha and they've started going after the festival. Later after class, Sekai goes to hang out with her friends and Makoto goes to the train station and winds up taking a train with Kotonoha. Kotonoha explains that Taisuke grabbed her and told her go out with him and because she felt she had no choice she accepted.
Hikari finds out Taisuke has a girlfriend
Sekai, Hikari, Setsuna and Nanami are at Pure Burger and Nanami complains about her boyfriend preferring porn games to her and then Sekai reveals Taisuke got a girlfriend, causing Hikari to get jealous. The next day at lunch, Makoto decides to find Taisuke as soon as the bell rings and finds him more or less raping Kotonoha. Makoto continues to watch them and Hikari comes and they both watch. Makoto gets aroused and starts fondling Hikari. Before they go too far, Kotonoha and Taisuke finish and they have to stop. Makoto compliments Hikari and says she's a great girl. When he gets back, Sekai gives him a lunch she made with Setsuna's mom. Makoto likes it and she invites him over for the weekend because her mother is going to Paris on a business trip. She then goes to Pure Burger with Nanami and Setsuna but Hikari declines. Setsuna then calls Nanami's boyfriend and makes plans for everyone to go to his house and play his pornographic games.
Makoto runs into Kotonoha at the train station and Kotonoha says she loves him and asks him to break up with Sekai and go out with her. Before Makoto answers, she guesses no and says she only asked for the sake of it. Makoto then proclaims his love for her, and Kotonoha gains a bit of hope and promises to 'defeat' Sekai in order to win Makoto back. Makoto immediately regrets saying that. Hikari, who's been eavesdropping, assumes Kotonoha is promiscuous due to her limited information of matters.
Final Episode - Bloody End[]
Kotonoha calls Taisuke to break up with him, claiming she can't give up on the one she loves. She then decides she won't hesitate anymore.
The next day on the train, Kotonoha explains to Makoto that she's decided to be more honest to herself and comes on to him, all of which is witnessed by Nanami. Before school, Nanami reports her findings to Sekai. Sekai then starts questioning Makoto about his recent actions. Before anything is confirmed, Taisuke comes crying and then tells Makoto he's been dumped, accusing him of being the reason Kotonoha broke up with him. Makoto then thinks he must be in love with Kotonoha. During lunchtime, Kotonoha invites Makoto and Sekai for lunch. Before going to the roof, Sekai says she forgot to get tea and asks Kotonoha to come with her to send Makoto up alone so she can talk to her. She asks Kotonoha to stop coming onto Makoto, but Kotonoha replies that since she stole Makoto from her initially by using her sex appeal when Kotonoha was too shy, she is going to win Makoto back. She then asks if Sekai's going to get her tea and that she'd appreciate a "head start", implying she'll have sex with Makoto. Sekai is forced to go back with her. After class, Sekai invites Makoto to Pure Burger. Meanwhile Nanami takes advantage of Taisuke's sad state to set up him and Hikari.
At Pure Burger, Sekai asks Makoto to stop having lunch with Kotonoha. Makoto agrees but then Sekai asks him to block Kotonoha on his phone, which he agrees to reluctantly. During the evening, Kotonoha calls Makoto, and thinks she expected this from Sekai. Kotonoha then goes over to Makoto's house but is sent home by him. The next day, she tries to get close to him on the bus but Nanami and Hikari block her way to make sure he has no contact with Kotonoha.

Final Episode - Bloody End[]
This ending is triggered if Makoto broke up with Kotonoha by saying that he hates her.
Kotonoha gets constantly bullied at school with profanity drawn on her textbooks, notebooks and desk. She's also verbally abused by her classmates. In desperation, she goes over to Makoto's home and is let inside to wait for him by his mother. Makoto comes home with Sekai, and not knowing she's there, proceedd to have sex. Hearing it causes Kotonoha to snap and makes her emotionless. She obtains a key to Makoto's home and proceeds to listen in on Makoto and Sekai having sex many times until she gets on the balcony and sees a saw. She starts to laugh maniacally and disappears.
Ending[]
After a while, Hikari, Nanami, Sekai, and Makoto are all out together when Sekai and Makoto go off by themselves on top of a station overpass. They meet Kotonoha and Sekai tries to greet her, but Kotonoha swipes her hacksaw at Sekai's neck through her coat, causing her to bleed violently. Kotonoha then starts to laugh maniacally again with a shocked Makoto staring at the scene. It's implied Sekai died.
- It can be inferred from Kotonoha's roof meeting with Sekai that Kotonoha kills herself thereafter, possibly using the same saw. There is another hint that the final pattern of the blood on the overpass suggests two pools of blood instead of one.
Cold Scarf (冷たいマフラー, LxH Extension)[]
The below scenario is not possible in neither the original nor the HQ release of the game.
In the LxH version, after Kotonoha kills Sekai, Makoto's frozen from shock while Nanami and Hikari, having seen what happened, panic. Kotonoha, still insane, tries to hand the hacksaw to Makoto. Being shocked by what she did, he slaps her hand (which still has the knife) and the knife ends up under the bridge and Kotonoha's hand starts bleeding. She decides to get her scarf and tries to suffocate Makoto, but then she starts crying and stops, presumably still in love with him.
Trivia[]
- From the pilot film, it seems that 0verflow originally intended for this ending to occur in school rather than at the overpass, but this was changed before the final release.
- In this version, Kotonoha is shown being restrained by two students after slicing Sekai's throat.
- In the LxH Version, there are no visible blood spray or puddle of blood after Kotonoha cuts Sekai's neck.
