The Normal Ending

It's the ending you get during your first playthrough, especially when you're playing casually. In Act 3, Monika tells you how she was able to manipulate the game. If you don't take the hint—deleteMonika—you'll have all the time in the world with her. Indeed, there's no end with just Monika.

But if you want to proceed to the Normal Ending, you'll have to delete her.

How to Delete Monika

For Doki Doki Literature Club:

1. In the Game Directory, open the characters folder
2. Delete monika.chr

For Doki Doki Literature Club Plus:

1. At the Desktop, select Files from the Start menu
2. Open the character folder, delete monika.chr

In Act 4 of the Normal Ending, Sayori becomes the Literature Club President and gains awareness of all that had happened. She'll thank you for deleting Monika before confessing how she feels about you. But before she could go on any further, Monika interrupts her and deletes everything there ever was to save you from more pain.

Remember when Monika mentioned she's been writing a song? It's called "Your Reality." She'll be singing it while playing the piano as the credits roll. When the song comes to an end and all files are deleted, you'll receive a goodbye letter she wrote just for you.

When you've finished reading it, a text box will pop up containing the message: 'Error: Script file is missing or corrupt. Please reinstall the game.' It will always appear when the game has come to an end, no matter which ending you get. However, there's actually no need to reinstall Doki Doki Literature Club. You can reset it instead, which let's you play a New Game almost immediately saving you time.

The Secret Ending
