[/They are definitely dead because of them being in heaven (unless author tricked us? Nah). They def died of starvation or any type of suicide. I’m guessing died by exploding themselves (c4). My explanation why they died from c4 is that one of the girls mentions having explosives, their mini camping site in the tankoubon was also buried under snow (due to explosion). I could be wrong because their was no blood and their helmets were perfectly fine next to the buried camping site (so who could of put them there?).]
I don’t think the camping site being buried in snow was natural because of the way it looks (HAD TO BE A EXPLOSION, MAYBE They EXPLODED THEIR GEAR FOR FUN BEFORE JUMPING OFF CLIFF??!!). Snow is not evenly layered. Author made this ending very open ended (which I love). I’m 99% sure their dead just because of the tankoubon (shows them in heaven duh)
And plz don’t be sad guys! Ik shit is hard Rn but I think (in my opinion) the MAIN MESSAGE OF THIS MANGA IS TO ACCEPT DEATH AND BE HAPPY NO MATTER WHAT. LIVE UR LIFE TO THE FULLEST LMAO (Hopefully I can live my life to the fullest after this quarantine

)
