Qkai

Qkai is the slash ship between Q-taro Burgerberg and Kai Satou from the Your Turn To Die fandom.

Your Turn to Die
Q-taro and Kai are often seen together. They search together all throughout Chapter 1 Part 1 and stand next to each other in the Central Hall and while playing Russian Roulette.

In the Russian Roulette Challenger discussion, Kai always votes for Q-taro to be the Challenger, which would ensure his survival.

During the Main Game, when the theory comes out that Kai could be connected to the kidnappers, Q-taro refuses to believe it. Q-taro is the most upset out of everyone over Kai's death. He latches himself onto Sue Miley, risking his life just so Miley won't be able to feel satisfied executing him. He even says, "I wouldn't let go if ya killed me!!" After Kai's dying speech about resistance, Q-taro cries out his name desperately.

In the epilogue, Q-taro wonders if Kai was a bad guy. To him, being a bad guy means he was good-for-nothing, but Q-taro knows Kai was definitely not a good-for-nothing kind of guy. Q-taro is also determined to prove that Kai wasn't a bad guy.

On the third floor, Sara Chidouin sees him searching around and he declares that Kai's dying wish won't be in vain and he wants to see it through.

Upon first meeting Rio Ranger, Sara notices he is wearing various articles of clothing from their dead allies. If she points out that he's wearing Kai's apron, Ranger laughs and says Kai's foolish rebellion is what killed him, to which Q-taro angrily denies it and says Ranger is the foolish one.

In Chapter 2, part of the Sub-Game is to collect tokens from other people. Q-taro is very intent on collecting as many as he can, managing to collect over 200, the most out of anybody. However, when he saw that Shin Tsukimi had Kai's laptop he offered to trade 100 tokens for it without hesitation. He felt like he technically killed Kai, so he wanted to show that he did care about him. By gaining the laptop he could also know more about who Kai was.

Your Time to Shine
In one of Kai's death scenes, Q-taro is there to mourn his death.

Official 4-koma comics
# 09: Miley tells the participants to pair up. Kai and Q-taro's silhouettes are next to each other, implying they paired together.

S2 #21: Taking place within the Death Game, Kai and Q-taro both notice that the other is also up early. Q-taro explains that he's doing road work while in the facility in order to maintain shape. Kai tells him that since he is making breakfast for all twelve of them, Q-taro should return when he gets hungry. The two fistbump and both think to themselves that Death Games aren't easy.

Fanon
Qkai is a popular ship in the fandom, and the most popular ship for both Q-taro and Kai. It rivals Qmai and Keikai.

At one point Q-taro is talking about Kai's dying wish with Sara. He realizes it is kind of a serious topic, so right away he changes the topic and asks Sara "Ya got any guys you like?" Since they were just talking about Kai, some people like to think Q-taro has a crush on Kai. Fans also like to speculate that Q-taro suffered from hallucinations of Kai during Chapter 2, as did Sara with hallucinations of Joe.
