Ouma Execution
5317 Page 15: Ouma Execution 『Ouma Kokichi』
tied into an electric chair with a polygraph(lie-detector). He's asked through a series of question and if he answers them truth/honestly, he will live. But when he lies the polygraph catches it which triggers the electric chair. the voltage rises a little by little by # of Qs, and eventually passes away. Ouma refuses to answer them with the truth "because he's a liar~." He dies due to his identifying personality trait. he dies because he is ouma kokichi. he's also smiling the whole way through reasons similar to Celestia's. Tricking himself that it's not painful/scary, plus refuses to express true feelings to others
