Shitai-san (死体さん, "Mr. Corpse", pronounced /ɕi.ta.i/) is an effect NPC that can be found on the Infinite Road in a section of Dense Woods B. He grants Madotsuki the Stoplight effect.

Overview

Shitai-san is a corpse with a gray shirt, white undershirt, blue pants, purple shoes, and messy dark brown hair. His skin is a deep green color, giving it the appearance of rotting flesh (although, due to his shared resemblance with characters such as the Maussan Bros and Mall Shoppers, who also have unusual skin colors, it could be naturally green). He lies sprawled out face-down on the ground with a large blood puddle beneath him.

When traveling west on the Infinite Road, Madotsuki will come across a road that is eventually blocked by traffic cones with Shitai-san at the end. Interacting with him will give Madotsuki the Stoplight effect. He will twitch while using the Cat effect near him.

Trivia

Just out of reach..

Shitai-san is one of two effect NPCs that does not react to the Knife effect, with the other being the Guillotine.
If the player enters Dense Woods B through the Mall and goes to the southernmost section of the Frog Path, Shitai-san can be partially seen at the bottom of the screen.

+==Overview==
+Shitai-san is a corpse with a gray shirt, white undershirt, blue pants, purple shoes, and messy dark brown hair. His skin is a deep green color, giving it the appearance of rotting flesh (although, due to his shared resemblance with characters such as the [[Yume Nikki:Maussan Bros|Maussan Bros]] and [[Yume Nikki:Mall Shoppers|Mall Shoppers]], who also have unusual skin colors, it could be naturally green). He lies sprawled out face-down on the ground with a large blood puddle beneath him.
-==Interpretation==
+When traveling west on the Infinite Road, [[Yume Nikki:Madotsuki|Madotsuki]] will come across a road that is eventually blocked by traffic cones with Shitai-san at the end. Interacting with him will give Madotsuki the [[Yume Nikki:Effects#Stoplight|Stoplight]] effect. He will twitch while using the [[Yume Nikki:Effects#Cat|Cat]] effect near him.
-{{spoiler}}
-One seemingly reoccurring theme throughout the [[Yume Nikki|game]] is the theme of traffic accidents, which have lead to a multitude of [[theories]]. It's possible [[Madotsuki]] had been in some kind of car accident, and Shitai-san could represent this by showing her past, or could even be the corpse of someone she knew that died in the same crash. Other characters that are seemingly connected to the theme of car accidents include [[Monoko]]'s event and [[Seccom Masada-sensei]]'s [[Events#The Spaceship Crash|Spaceship crash]], as well as characters that have odd reactions to the Stoplight effect such as [[Buyo Buyo]] and the [[Wheelies]].
-[[File:Jellyjelly.png|thumb|right|The Jellyfish northeast of Shitai-san.]]
-It should also be noted that, upon closer inspection of Shitai-san's sprite, they appear to have a bone sticking out of their arm. This could draw a connection to Monoko, as she sprouts several arms when the Stoplight effect is used near her, which are often speculated by fans to be less grotesque depictions of car accident injuries.
-Some other details to note are elements nearby Shitai-san. A [[Jellyfish]] is located just northeast of the corpse, similarly to how they appear in the [[The Ending|game's ending]]. It's possible that the Jellyfish are able to sense when death occurs and will locate the source. A train track is also seen nearby, and a [[Traincar]] can be found elsewhere in the Dense Woods, relating to the car accident theory mentioned above.
