Why not leave Yomiyama?


In the anime _Another_ , the town of Yomiyama is cursed with a calamity that
causes the deaths of members of Class 3-3 and their family members living in
the town.

This is obviously a big problem. **So why don't the members of 3-3 and their
families switch schools?** Wouldn't that be a better choice than to risk death
in Yomiyama?




The deaths are tied to both members of class 3-3 and Yomiyama. My guess is
that if you try to leave either class 3-3 or Yomiyama you'll be killed by
doing so, rather than waiting for your turn to die through the normal means of
the curse--one death every month.

This is mentioned in the show due to one of the character's deaths and on the
[wiki](http://another.wikia.com/wiki/Deaths):
