Kibo is back
>>720663321Fuck off back to your cantaminant thread we don't need 24/7 /v/ threads too >>539021276>>539021276>>539021276
>experiencing a new danganronpa for the first time in eight yearsi still can't believe this is real.
>>720664649Kill yourself FEjeet
>>720664649yes we do
>>720664649It's a new game, fuck off already tendie marketer
>>720664649no
I hope he lives this time
>>720666983It'd be nice for a fat fuck to survive for once
>Everyone gets on the boat>It's packed and you can't really move around or see anything >Someone takes the opportunity to murder and no one knows who did it because of how crammed in everyone is>Have to analyze blood splatters on the different characters to understand their positions and how close they were to the victim>There's also the stupid logic puzzle of "I was next to this character, but they weren't next to this character" and one person is lying about their position
>>720664649You're right, clearly we need more Silksong threads.
>>720663321I hope mikan is a survivor instead of Sonia nevermind.
>>720663321>CG conveniently hides Komaeda's hands and Hinata's eyeshmmmmmmmmmm
>>720666983>survive>random case happen>he fall on someone and killed them>even he wasn't aware somethow for more hack writing
>Kibo is backThey rebuilt him?
>>720667463theres a boat in dr2?
>>720669497There's one in the new CG.
>>720669384Kibo was the friend we made along the way (actualy it is)
>When your character is so boring people unironically think you'd make for a good self insert MC in the untimely event that Hajime dies as a twistIt's funny how much of an insult this is to Mahiru, lmfao what a bland fucking character.
>>720670210I don't see how she can be a protag when she's also unpopular as well.
>>720670210She’s best girl and she’ll survive to the end this time.
>>720670210I do think there's a pretty good chance that Hajime bites it, but the replacement MC would be Nagito or Chiaki.
>>720670606
Mukubros...
>>720670856are the stageplays worth watching? hell, were they ever translated?
Everyone agrees that Mahiru is best girl
>>720670856I know that Nagito is supposed to look sickly and all that, but he just looks fucking old in that photo.
>>720670637My actual reason for believing in Protag Chiaki is that I just think she's cuteBut my cope reason is that since someone playing 2x2 would already know all the twists of DR2, it would make more sense to play as someone who already knows all the twists of DR2
>>720671084
What made Mahiru the cutest dangit ron paul?
There is 0 chance the alternate scenario is played entirely straight and doesn't actually have something new going on. They wouldn't make 5 completely new danganronpa chapters just for the sixth to be the exact same giantess junko plot with all it's reveals you already knew.
But will Hajime's VA be able to redo his voice again?Or will he sound shit like in V3?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFSxerYAu_U
it definitely won't be, but i hope the game is slated for early 2026 and not late 2026
>>720671729My theory is that the avatars of the DR2 characters are being used by other new characters since it's just VR and that can easily be done.
>>720668430>Komaeda>Hinata
>>720666983Mikan is so lucky
>>720671861Dont you ever sleep?
>>720671948>tfw no slampig husband
>>720671974Unironically one of the best male options in all of Danganronpa.
>>720671948Only good thing about Danganronpa 3 besides Juzo memes
I don't think there should be another protag switch, it's too predictable after you've already done it once before.
>>720672394Then Nagito dies first, something has to happen for events to spiral into a different route and he was the one who instigated the first murder.
>>720671974The anime making him a manlet with anorexic legs was so bad.
>>720672562is it confirmed he's a guy? i don't remember if dr3 ever mentioned it
What are you killer/survivor predictions for the new route?>Mahiru survives>Mikan dies but heroically to make up for her turning evil in the original>Nagito dies first and his death is the catalyst for the different route>Fuyuhiko is a killer and Peko survives so we see the reverse of one of them losing the other>Teruteru still dies early because he's too annoying to keep around
>>720672724>Nagito becomes the protagonist instead
I can't wait for more.
>>720673512>sextuple reincarnation what
twogami finna impersonate someone else
If V3 was fiction, was Despair Girls also fiction?
>>720673757>someone else dies>Impostor takes their place>none of the students are aware of the switch up at first, only the player knowsThe issue would be disguising whoever died as Twogami.
>>720673757>Fat Junko appears
>>720673981That would be fucking hilarious>Suddenly fat Mikan sprite
>>720673512Wwait, which cup noodles did Hifumi eat?
>>720663321wrong game
>>720673981nagito changed his shirt because his old one has bloodstains from killing right before the game started, impostor sees the dead body and hides it while stealing the identity
>>720670637Nagito wouldn't work since he's too smart and tended to solve the cases long before anyone else.Chiaki could work, but would be kinda weird given her role in the story.
>>720674232I still think that the fact she isn't human makes her an even better candidate as an replacement MC
>only characters we've seen in the new style are Nagito, Hajime, Gundham, Mikan and MahiruWhat if this is their way of spoiling the five survivors to us?
>>720670210She'd make a good culprit, everyone underestimates her
>>720674339Her inner thoughts would just be ones and zeros
>>720674232>Nagito wouldn't work since he's too smart and tended to solve the cases long before anyone else.I think it could be cleverly written in a way to work.>Nagito figures things out but doesn't directly communicate it to the player, saying things like "I think I understand things now" in his head without elaborating>Trials are more about him guiding the rest of the cast (and the player) rather than trying to figure it out with the others or being guided by a helper character like Chiaki
>>720674526What this dude said, I think having a MC that isn't retarded would be a decent idea too but hey ho lets not get too excited.
>>720670856holy shit, they unironically look so good. fatkuya is the best one
>>720673512who is the girl in the bottom right
>>720670210She'll survive because making her a victim again would be kind of boring and they don't feel like figuring out how to execute someone with a camera
>>720674405Elaborate
>>720670856>the only ones with a normal hairstyle are Mahiru, both Togamis, and Sayaka
>>720675149Sonia and Mikan have normal hairstyles, what? I mean Mikan looks like she cut her own bangs, but a lot of feminists look like that.Chihiro and Chiaki also have a normal hairstyle for a girl who went out and curled the ends of her hair.
>>720674345Twogamibros...
>>720674914Iroha Nijiue from SDRA2.
even though Danganronpa 2 is the most flawed game of the trilogy, I like how it actually follows the precedent that was set by 1-1in every case, the killer used their ultimate talent one way or another, leading to creative murders, sad how this gimmick is only used in 7 out of 18 chapters totalI have HOPE that this game will surpass the holy trinity that was 2-5 / 2-4 / 1-1
>10m viewsso the announcement was a success?
>>720675475that's quite a lot yes
>>720675475How many views did the trailer get on Youtube so far?
>>720675452>2-1 in BI think it's A, it was a pretty good starting case thanks to the buildup and Nagito.
>>720675452>1-1>holy trinity
>>720675452>"the last remote and elecrobomb were crushed in the press" at A tier
>>7206754522-1 is way too low but overall I would agree, 1-1 is criminally underrated just because the mystery was too easy
>>7206754521-1 in A2-1 in A3-1 in S3-5 in C, wtf dude? it was awful
>>720675452Teruteru used his ultimate talent? Sure I guess if hiding a weapon in the meat counts.Peko used her ultimate talent? I guess sorta because she used her sword to escape thru the window?Mikan used her ultimate talent? She didn't really? She strangled Ibuki and stabbed Hiyoko, the only thing I guess is that Ibuki was under her care but I don't see how that involves her using her ultimate talent to kill.Gundham used his ultimate talent? Technically didn't since the whole "he used his hamsters to press the button" was later revealed to not be true and they just fought like 2 men and he won. BUT, I'll give it a pass.Did Chiaki use her ultimate talent? No lol but Nagito was the one to use his and it was preddy epic, so I'll give that.I guess they were mostly related to their talents, huh, neat, never noticed that.I wonder if they'll keep that in 2x2.
>>720675475People missed dangankino
>>720675452>sad how this gimmick is only used in 7 out of 18 chapters totalactually 6 out of 18 because it's silly to count 2-1
>>720675475>(two by two)uhhhhh what did they mean by that?? 2 times 2=4 btfo
>>720675948Mikan in case 1 brings to the attention that the wound on Twogami is too different from the "murder weapon"
>>720675948>Mikan used her ultimate talent?I'd say she did in that she abused her role as a trusted caregiver to murder one of her patients
why don't we go ahead and put eight hours there on the clock?
>>720676097anon, your multiplication tables...
>>7206754521-2 is waaaay better than 1-1>>72067576711037 was a very unnecessary addition, granted yes the game originally was in Japanese so Japanese players probably didn't catch it as fast, but still, it wasn't really needed to prove it was Leon when it was his ultimate talent that really sealed the deal.Aside from that, its a nothingburger case.
>>720675475of coursethe duo is back again in 2026, everyone is hyped
>>720675948I think he is referring to Mikan using her medicine knowledge to kill Hiyoko swiftly (she is an expert in human body weak points) and also to mess with the exact time of death using the air conditioning
>>720675948no, he just threw his hamsters at him
>dangankino is BACKSo what do we want them to do after this?>Alternate story of 1 or V3>Brand new game with a new cast>Mixed cast game
>>720676740udg2 with maki and himiko
>>720676213"I pretended to be the murderer just to mess around"Hell no, if anything 1-2 deserves to be lowerThe only part I like about this case is the parallel between Chihiro coping with "I'm weak" vs Mondo coping with "I'm strong", it really made me think
>>720675452I really liked 3-1 but then 3-6 killed it for meactually 3-6 killed the series for me
Yes
>>720672724Kazuichi survives as a joke.
>>720673746There's a stupid fan theory about the number of dolls in Kaede's execution representing the number of Kaedes executed in the past, and V3 is juts repeating forever.>>720674120The one on Kyoko's head.
im probably a brainletwhy do everyone say that 3-6 is a fuck you to the fans when Tsugumi is basically Kodaka telling that to us but the morale and how they beat her is that fiction is meaningful even if it's fake?
>>720677726cause it's really whiny and it basically spends 3 hours telling you that you're an entitled little faggot for liking danganronpa
SHE WON
>>720677809but shuichi wins in the end...
>>720677918clearly he didn't if we're getting another game
>>720677726they identified too hard with the parody-tier degenerate fan commentary displayed on the screen during chapter 6 and felt personally attacked
>>720677861I-I KNEEL
>>720677982Nuh-uh. It doesn't count unless 2x2 takes place after V3 in the timeline.
>>7206760972x2 stands for EXTREME Danganronpa season 22Tsumugi comes in at the end and says everything was fake and gay.
>>720678207>parody-tier degenerate fan commentaryIs it really parody if I've literally seen people say shit like that one "I want to break Shuichi's fingers <3" comment in complete earnest? Not that I disagree with them or anything but still.
There's gotta be some insane bullshit behind Nagito's shirt design being different.
>>720678417>cosplays as junko and somehow makes her hotterHow did she do it, bros?
do you like the updated art?
>>720675475unironically this could sell even better than the originals right?
>>720679007i miss the thicker outlines, but other than that it looks pretty good
>>720679052probably it has over 10 years of meme going for it along with 7 years of people wanting a new game
>>720679007I don't have any strong opinions on what little was shown besides the tweening animation of Gundham. I'm usually not very picky, that just felt too off for me.
>>720679007The new art for the girls looks pretty nice. Not a fan of the floppy animations in the teaser, especially Hajime's mouth in the counter cut-in.
>>720679007As long as Mahiru keeps her freckles, sure
>>720679007looks good
>>720672394It wouldn't be predictable if they straight up opened the game with a new protagonist rather than killing him off in the first half
>>720680718This could work.
I can't wait for more closing argument comics
>>720681148How the fuck does grey guy keep getting away with it?
>>720681148He didn't, that's why it became a blue guy in V3
>>720681148wait a minute...
>>720676740I'd love to see a mixed cast game where Junko herself is a participant. She happily assists in the murders, manipulates people, uses Mukuro. (Almost like Nagito, but the Hope/Despair high is flipped. (She's enjoying the despair to much to actually murder anyone herself.)
>>720680896I thought of something else that could work: shifting POVs sort of like 2-4 or V3-6. These were one-off gimmicks, so expanding it to the entire game would be progression rather than retreading.
>>720671729The twist is that there are many simulations of the second game in order to train an algorithm on the characters. It's called 2x2 because the cases are the snippet of a matrix of four simulations that belong to an even bigger matrix.
she WILL survive this time.
>>720682801sorry anonthe high energy lesbian is always fated to die
>>720676613Kind of fucking pointless when she straight up lies about Ibuki's cause of death and Nagito picks up on that shit immediately.
>>720682801She'll be lucky if she even gets to die while not under the lobotomized retard disease this time
>>720677726Because the average Danganronpa fan is genuinely really stupid.
I'm disappointed we aren't getting a full new game.
>>720675452My case rankings.
>>720663321facking kino
Kazuichi surviving again would be really fucking funny.
>>720682507>>720671729SavedThat's my line of thinking too.Now we wait for the game to prove us right.Anon 1. Kodaka 0.The TRIALS begin.
>>720684616>>720684616
>>720684401>chiaki dies a third time>kazuichi lives againimagine the shitposting
>>720683448Ibuki is (probably) bi she will live!!!! 1000 YEARS IBUKI LOVE FOREVER ACROSS THE WHOLE GALAXY11!1!1!1!1
>>720684401i feel like at least one of the original survivors (besides hajime) will make it out again
>>720684861
>>720684892>Kuzuryuu>already had a full arc = 100% dead this time around>Sonia>no way she won't be a killer>Souda>no real character development but unironically useful as fuck through most of the game. could go either way>Owari>fuck if I know
Is Shuten Order any good?
>>720685198i liked it
>>720685097evil beta akane is the only way to make her actually have value as a character and not just for porn
>>720670210>no ahoge
>>720685097100% we will have six cases of Nagito. It's just a question of if Hajime remains the main character or not.
We are so fucking back danganbros.
Hajime's saving Ibuki this time... and then Ibuki will proceed to fuck it up by accidentally killing someone.
>>720685429shuichi didn't have on in ch1, she can very easily get her hair messed up and gain powers from it
>>720685042Based
Fuyuhiko still survives, he just loses the other eye.
>>720686153Fuyuhiko's right eye survives but the rest of him doesn't.
>>720673512Saihara made this perfectly accurate iceberg theory.
Assuring Mikan that her past doesn't matter and that she is loved for who she is in the present.
>>720686792Miu should have been the replacement love interest for Shuichi.
>>720673757Damn, Sonia bangs this every night?
didn't the original JP voice actor for Monokuma fucking died?
>>720688110Yes. Both of them did. It's a cursed role.
I want a Dangan that ends with the blackened (you) getting away with it.
>>720673512lol is the sayaka being psychic because she know what Makoto the teenager think of his childhood friend ?
>>720685726What about kaede and shuichis?
>>720688173In the secondary game where you collect resources, Sayaka (and Hajime) are implied to actually have psychic powers for real.
>>720688335that was made during the dr3 with /a/ daysi'm not even sure we knew about them at that time, iirc it was just kiibo and maki
>>720688141>bothayo and here i thought it was just junko doing the voice and why she didn't anymore
>>720688573>psychic>die because the bathroom locket was broken
>>720688613i wonder how many people thought there was another reason than the anime for naming it V3.i didn't because it was clearly dangaronpa 4 (close)
>>720688613Things sure were different back then
>>720674526this, it'd be kinospoilers for dr3, but if they remake it they need to have you play as junko but not reveal it until the last second
>>720688573>(and Hajime)Because of Izuru or...????
>>720688991>2 survivor in the posterit's over for the hajime and nagito dead theory
>>720689057>2huh?
>>720670856>Mukuro Ikusaba, NOT the sixteenth student, NOT lying hidden somewhere in this school, NOT the one they call the Ultimate Despair. DON'T watch out for her.
>>720688886i want to say people thought the v was for victory, but it's been so long who really knows >>720688991the good ol' days
is the twist going to be that it's actually danganronpa 22 or some stupid like that?
>>720688886Considering the sequel to DR1 attached the "Super" thing to its name without any real reason, most people assumed the whole V shit was more of the same
>>720689124you can't kill hope :^)
>>7206891812x2 is 4it'll be dr4 and shuichi, maki, and himiko will land on the island in the new ch6 to end danganronpa (for real this time)
>>720689181They'll pull the same roman numeral fuckery like with V3 and it'll actually be season 2102
>>720689283>a repeat of the "EVERYONE GOT THEIR PERSONALITY REPLACED WITH A FICTIONAL CREATION" ploteugh
>>720689391>>a repeat of the "EVERYONE GOT THEIR PERSONALITY REPLACED WITH A FICTIONAL CREATION" plotthird time's the charm?
wait, new game?
>>720689171>v was for victoryWhere did that even come from? It's been so long I cant remember.
>>720689391they can't do that since the dr2 cast just reverted to their pre-highschool personalities i just want to see maximum nonsense when the 'real' characters accidentally find the 'fictional' ones who are supposed to be in a high security closed simulation in a secret location
>a fucking remakeim not even mad
>>720689391>not Junko didn'tand we are suposed to believe everything she said.V3 being in alternate universe would be better since it leave open the whole planete destruction being real and all, but there is a very high chance they show up in chapter 1 just to get killed by the new virus of the simulation since they love to kill important character first chapter
>>720689557presumably the /a/ threads since iirc thats where all the danganronpa news was being shared when 3 was airing
I think they decided to remake Danganronpa 2 because the events of the game could lead to Danganronpa 3 anyway since nothing really happens
>>720689791>i think they decided to name it V3 since Danganronpa 3 is already the anime name and it would confuse people to name it DR4
>>720681721Junko is still the mastermind and everybody knows it, but she still won't let them leave until they actually prove it beyond a reasonable doubt during a trial, the game ends when the characters finally decide they have a good enough case to prove it without any room for argument.
>>720689791Would the cast even manage to leave the simulation without Mr. Talent intervening?
They're going to add boy love to unlockable dating sim game aren't they
What was /v/'s reaction to DR2 at the time?
>>720681721she would knife you in the back because she would get despair from being all alone surrounded by enemy>Captcha : DDR2
>>720689791There is no way he's retconning DR3 and V3 that way; he would only retcon them with some kind of existential reveal.
>>720689656Nagito with a gun still feels surreal
>>720690134dr3 is one of those things that has to be seen to be believed
>>720690126Retconning V3 is almost impossible
>>720690253Those threads were an experience.
Will SC censor it?
>>720690134
>>720690280the whole anime was an experience, they took years to make and they released at the same week, never seen this shit and we will probably never again
>>720690316N U T
>>720690316Hundred Line has scenes where the characters fuck, so no.
>>720677726it's kino because it's telling you to fuck off, no more danganronpa, and gives you a board game for you to grind forever because you're a fucking addict to these anime bitchesit's funny because they realized they liked danganronpa money so they made another board game you can grind for even longer(with microtransactions for more money, and swimsuits for good measure), and then they realized they STILL wanted more danganronpa money so they're going back and retconning v3the point of 2-2 will ultimately be that we're a bunch of sluts for despair and that's A-OK somehow and monokuma will drop a functional hyperlink mid-dialogue to an official Danganronpa merch store where you can buy your very own Monokuma Replica Plush Toy™ as well as a brand of sex toys made by Miu Iruma in-universe(including an onahole which you can insert into the aforementioned Monokuma Replica Plush Toy™)
>>720690316I prefer her after the growth spurt
>>720690426imagine spending so much time, effort, and money on something so bad they had to reboot the franchise to get around it
>>720690512least unhinged V3 hater
>>720678789her tits are bigger, look at those curves>>720679007im not bothering to look, I'll be fine with it solely because it isn't rendering at a vita resolution
>>720690507Hundred Line WAS censored on Switch.
>>720690594the franchise was finished.epilogue of DR1 with finaly the reveal of hope peak storyline with both combining at the end.All they could do is more fanservice epilogue without dead game
>>720690640Nintendo being less weird lately, so DR2 remake might be okay on the platform, SC is releasing the CH spin offs on the SW and I'm sure they will be releasing it without alterations
>>720690789these are going to have woke translations too, huh
>>720690612i actually fucking love v3, all of the girls had bigger tits. all of them. i checked.
>>720690867nothing new under the sun. nisa always had pretty unfaithful translations
>>720690885Even Himiko?
>>720690885Bigger tits is always better.
>>720691130such a big Chiaki just makes me think that's Imposter pretending to be her
>>720691224Moogie with giant tits cosplaying as all the girls but they all just end up with giant tits.
>>720670856Those costumes look sick
>>720691047she has a fatter ass to compensate
>>720690885>All of the v3 girls are also more sexual than the girls in 2>>720691130Cake > Boobies
>>720691356
>>720691047after careful observation, i can confirm that himiko has slightly larger breasts than dr2's resident loli, hiyoko(also wow their names are literally 2 letters different)comparison images:https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/danganronpa/images/8/8c/DRS_-_Himiko_Yumeno_Sprite_%28Swimsuit%29_%2820%29.png/revision/latest?cb=20211105234038https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/danganronpa/images/a/ab/DRS_-_Hiyoko_Saionji_Sprite_%28Swimsuit%29_Preview.png/revision/latest?cb=20211106225227in addition, hiyoko wears a kimono, which covers her up extensively which is stupid and gay, while himiko wears a short skirt and tights so you can appreciate her sweet, sweet (twiggy) thighs. objectively an improvement. she also appears so have wider hips, and personally her illustration tempts me more to pick her up and fuck her over a table. now that i think about it, her swimsuit is also hotter because it has no frills around her cunny and also has a hotter color(night black is hotter than puke green i will not accept any arguments shut the fuck up)
>>720691731honestly miu's such a slut that she alone beats both dr1 and 2's entire cast in sex appeal
>>720688991I will never forgive them promoting Kiibo to be a badass just to reduce him solely into comic relief character.
Nagito as the main character would be kinowe already play as him in one case and it showed how great it would be
>>720692121redeemed by the end
>>720691897
>>720689557I seem to recall it was from some pre-release interview with Kodaka. I have no source on that and have no idea if it's even true.
>>720671948Mikan is my wife and I agree
>>720693367>>720671948i forgot mikan
I have to ask...Is that one anon that used to sperg out about Hiyoko still around? The one that had the copypasta?
>>720693906did you need to copy it for something? it's here in this screencap.
>>720673512>tsumugi was telling the truth>bottomBut I thought it was the tip...
>>720691130any sauce for a horny nigga
I just wanna say that I find it funny that this girl STILL doesn't have a full name all these years later.

>>720696538i was about to ask who the fuck that is but i'm pretty sure she's mahiru's friend who killed fuyuhiko's sister, yeah?
>>720696945Yep, It's even worse considering that every character in the future arc has full names, even the black guy who dies 5 seconds in, but Sato? Nope, last name only.
>>720696814thank you I hope they do a follow up
>>720697085i'm still not sure what the point was of making this whole new cast of characters to pair with the old ones only to kill all but one of them off without most of them doing actually anything
>>720694080cute reddit screencaphowever DR3 has always and will always be 4chan coded
I'm the worst culprit in the Danganronpa history.Nice to meet you.
How do I get a real gamer gf like chiaki?
>>720697919Please give me a footjob
Some people say Hajime will die in 2x2, but he could also become a side character as well, like a sidekick to the main character or something.
Nagito and Hajime kill each other in the chapter 1Sonia is the new MC
>>720699283BASEDBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASEDHOLY BAAAAAAAAAAAASADO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>720699283They will never let a woman main a REAL dangan game..
UDG 2 next
They can't switch MCs. No one else has an ahoge
>>720690594DR3 should have never been a anime, the medium itself fucked it up.
what the actual fuck were these devs on
>>720699814>click on the top green floor>it doesn't work>spend 15 minutes clicking on every element in the image>it doesn't work>you have to click the very tippy top of the green floor or else your wrong
>>720699814Idk if it's a localization thing. But they should've clued the player to look for -any- 8-sided shape. I was confused since I was trying to find where to fit a perfect octagon.I also got confused thinking I was supposed to select where the octagon room leads to, not the octagon room itself
>>720699589...hey anon. Remind me again what Souda looks like without his hat.
>>720699814the bad shitbit it gave us hopekino, so it was worth it
>>720700121
>>720700121Or Teruteru's chef hat...
>>720700014I watched some streamers play that case and they all had trouble with that "select the spot" section
>>720676213It's supposed to be obvious to obfuscate Sayaka was planning to throw you under a bus.Sayaka's plan happened under the player's nose and puts her statements into new context, and sets the tone for the rest of the game. I never understood why people thought Leon being an obvious killer was supposed to be the main "meat" of the trial.
>>720671729Banking on this connecting to the anime and the survivors modified the Neo World Program and are running it over and over again until they can get everyone to survive.
>>720677007>Perfect opportunity to assess who could find you when you decide to kill.> Get it through everyones head that you all aren't friends, since Chihiro's friend beat him to death so hopefully no one is dumb enough to trust anyone afterwards.>Sets up Alter Ego, which literally sets up 2. Besides that, sets up the primary plot devices of 1-3 and 1-5.>After an easy trial in 1-1, the first truly complex trial. The only thing that points to Mondo is his "dude" comment.1-2 was really good. Really, although 1-3 is easily the weakest, none of 1's cases are bad.

Famitsu:──The announcement coincided with Danganronpa's 15th anniversary. Could you explain the reasoning behind basing the new title and remake on Danganronpa 2 rather than the original game?SakakibaraInitially, we considered remaking or rebooting ‘1’. We started planning with the premise of changing the story while keeping the world and characters the same. However, we realized that the story of ‘1’ forms the core of Danganronpa, and altering it would have too significant an impact. After much deliberation, we concluded that using Danganronpa 2 would allow us to offer a new Danganronpa experience to our users without compromising the core world. This led to the current project format. Therefore, after much consideration, we concluded that a sequel would allow us to deliver a new Danganronpa experience to our users without compromising the core Danganronpa worldview. This led to the current project format.——So the completely new scenario isn't just a slight variation on the original Danganronpa 2 storyline? Rather, everything that happens after arriving on Jabberwock Island in Danganronpa 2 changes?SakakibaraYes, that's correct. The opening is exactly the same, but shortly after it begins, a certain event occurs, and from there the story takes a drastically different shape. Also, it's not that the scenario branches partway through; the new scenario and the remake are two completely separate, independent stories.—So does that mean the settings from the original Danganronpa, Danganronpa Zero (novel), and Zetsubou Shoujo Danganronpa Another Episode, all released before Super Danganronpa 2, will be carried over unchanged?SakakibaraYes, that's correct.—Then it won't connect to the anime Danganronpa 3: Future Chapter...?SakakibaraRegarding that, I hope you'll look forward to seeing what kind of conclusion this ‘2x2’ reaches.
Hajime, Impostor, Peko, Hiyoko, Gundam, and probably Sonia are the new survivor group.
>>720702418ーーIn ‘2’, elements like the Counter-Argument Showdown and Logical Dive were added to the Class Trials. Will the game system change as well?SakakibaraPlease wait for further updates.ーーThe basic characters and setting (Jabberwock Island) are the same, but what about the voice actors?SakakibaraWe're grateful to have retained the same voice actors for all characters.——It's deeply saddening that Nobuyo Ōyama (Monokuma), TARAKO (Monokuma), and Takako Kiyakado (Monomi) have passed away. Will new voice actors be cast for Monokuma and Monomi in ‘Super Danganronpa 2×2’?SakakibaraYes, we've secured new voice actors. We'll announce them at the appropriate time. Stay tuned!ーーI'd also like to ask about the remake of ‘2’. What new elements will the remake feature?SakakibaraWe've made almost no changes to the scenario. We're rebuilding it to run on the current system. All characters have been redrawn, and backgrounds have been redesigned from the ground up based on Jabberwock Island. The hotel, for instance, has a completely new design packed with tropical resort vibes.ーーWill bonus modes like “Dangan Island” and “Magical Girl MiracleMonomi,” along with mini-games, be included?SakakibaraPlease stay tuned for further updates.ーーWill the remake's voices follow the original cast? Or will there be new cast members or re-recorded parts?SakakibaraAll the voices for the remake have been completely re-recorded. To reiterate, we were able to secure the original voice actors for all characters except Monokuma and Monomi.ーーWhat is the anticipated volume of the new scenario?SakakibaraIt is equivalent to, or greater than, the original version.ーーAre Kazutaka Kodaka and Rui Komatsuzaki, who are now affiliated with TookyoGames, involved in this new project?SakakibaraYes. Mr. Kodaka is serving as supervisor and original concept/trick designer this time, but we are firmly collaborating with TookyoGames on development.
>>720702494ーーA 15th anniversary event will be held in November 2025. Are there plans for a playable demo or other event-related activities for this title?Sakakibara: Yes, we will be offering the world's first playable demo for this title. Please stay tuned for further details.Related ArticlesDanganronpa 15th Anniversary: Major Real Event in November, Monokuma 2.0 and Hinata Hajime Nendoroids Released, Round One Collaboration AnnouncedFirst details announced for initiatives commemorating the 15th anniversary of the Danganronpa series. A standalone large-scale real-world event is confirmed for November 2025. Additionally, the official portal site will be renewed and a 15th Anniversary special site launched. Round One collaboration details and the addition of “Hinata Hajime” and “Monokuma 2.0” to the Nendoroid figure series were also announced.ーーBy the way, what's the abbreviation for this title...?Sakakibara: “Two by Two,” I suppose.ーーFinally, please share a message for readers looking forward to this title.Sakakibara: Dear fans, thank you for your patience. We're finally able to deliver a new Danganronpa title to you all. While this takes the form of a remake/reboot, the story is an entirely new original work. How will Hinata, Komachi, and Danganronpa itself unfold from here? The release is still a little ways off, but we'd be thrilled if you'd look forward to it!
>>720702494The VA for Monomi also passed away?!
The only thing that matters is Sonia-chan
>>720702738Of every single character in the game, Sonia and Fuyuhiko are the most likely to die. I almost can't imagine them surviving.
>>720702797SILENCE, RUBE!
>>720701140He's embraced true emo punk core.
>>720702864>>720702797Stretching Sonia's shithole
>>720664649Why do retards like this anon show up whenever people are actually talking about vidya games and it's not a screenshot of some random schizo like Ericfag or yawnfag shitting things up?
>>720671729She's going to reveal that they actually killed each other this time, and it's not a simulation. The DR3 anime thankfully gets retconned.
>>720684401I think he will, it really feels wrong for him to die, he's a lowlife, but a lowlife that makes it.
I hope Ibuki gets to live this time but I feel like the odds for her are still not good.
Soda WILL survive twice in a row, as a joke. Sonia WILL die to give him some sort of personal plot, and for that reason alone. You WILL NOT like it, but I will.
>>720704890souda is cool I never got the hate
>>720664649Get over it faggot. Go bother the silksirs
>>720705050I liked souda when he didn't talk about Sonia. So like 15% of the game.
>>720688991I remember the theorycrafting threads before this released and people said this was going to be a criminal version of Danganronpa and you had shit like theorizing Ouma was ULTIMATE TERRORIST and Miu was ULTIMATE MADAME
>>720670210She's just the most normal character in a cast otherwise comprised of nutjobs, so she feels like a good fit for substitute protagonist. I think she has a pretty distinct peronality, in spite of that, which plays well off the eccentricities of the other characters. She's good and I hope she goes the distance.
>>720679007I don't like really like the korean gacha Live 2D thing they have going on in the sprites
>>720704890Soda without Sonia would make him a better character. He's a bro whenever he's not trying to chase royal pussy.
>>720705273She's a insufferable feminist wannabe Karen, she's just as crazy as the rest of them.
>>720705514>mahiru >femministanon she's a hardcore traditionalist, she's bitching at the men because she thinks they're pussiesshe wants them to step up
Hajime MUST die for things to branch out, this isn't his story anymore.Chiaki is the new MC, heavily popular, relatable because of her gamer schtick.Nagito is even more of a sperg without Hajime to keep him in check.Teruteru still dies very fast but as a victim, dude has zero self soothing ability AND makes a prime killing target.Imposter and Ibuki live, they fuck in ch5.Soda lives, but Sonia dies, making him somehow even more pathetic.Mastermind is an AI trained on AI Junko and the simulation.Monokuma and Monomi join as students lol.
The thing about the pre-chapter 5 victims is that they're all too nice to kill anyone outside of extremely contrived circumstances and too boring and/or annoying to be worthwhile survivors.
>>720705757>and too boring and/or annoying to be worthwhile survivors.Funny, this is how I already feel about the DR2 survivors besides Hajime and Fuyuhiko, so I doubt it could get worse in that regard.
>>720705757The premise was enough for Teruteru to get to it, he's 100% trying again but he dies in the act this time.
>>720705750Not really. The story just needs the first murder to not be due to Nagito schizoing out.Nagito actions are what shape the rest of the story, Hajime dying would just make the setup of 2 make no sense since Izuru is the reason 2 happens.
>>720674405She's the one character I'm honestly drawing a complete blank on for a potential execution.
>>720705456I could get used to it when it's used on the sprites, but Hinata's mouth on the Counter cutout is genuinely offputing.
>>720697281>remake remaster number 12301230213Is humanity creatively bankrupt?>b-but the new hecking bonusyeah, a short story that nobody fucking cares, wow
>>720705929We are past Izuru, there are no rules against the whole simulation getting hijacked again by another third party.Killing Hajime is a clear signal to the player the game is not about to redo the whole Izuru plot.
>>720705750Teruteru will live. I don't think they care about popularity here and will just see this as an opportunity to make unpopular characters like him more likable
>>720705591Dude she's on Hajime case for no reason during the game and acts like a total bitch to Mikan, the girl is a total fool and a hyporcrite.
>>720705958probably something to do with war photography, iirc she was sending out a lot of brutal footage as part of despair career
>>720705958That's the joke, Monokuma will just slam a camera against her head until her brain splatters.
God make it happen Hackdaka kill Soda this annoying piece of shit, don't waste this survivor end on this retarded shitter fuck
actually crazy that this series features foul language like "cum dumpster" or Kokichi telling girls to go prostitute themselves like whoresusually japanese games rarely feature language like this because the japanese are very polite and such, is it the localizers exaggerating or what?
>>720705958Taking pictures of her but her clothes are off
>>720705757>Hiyoko>too niceThe only thing stopping her is her awareness that she would get curb stomped if she tried.
>>720706073Unless they reveal everything at the start, it has to.The interview says the start is the same, so we still have Hajime being the mysterious ultimate.I think it's much more likely that Nagito being friendly until later is going to be the twist. That way in the lategame Nagito can be a killer instead of a victim.
>>720706084To get Teruteru to live, you would need to:-Somehow prevent his morbid anxiety over his mom from making him kill someone-Prevent him from being a murder victim.Dude is a short fatass with zero chill, he is made to die, i am willing to bet my anal virginity on his death.
>>720706210>hopeman manages to conceal his autism>still manages to fuck shit up nonetheless ...Fuck, I could actually see that happening.
>>720706158>usually japanese games rarely feature language like this because the japanese are very polite and suchIf you've only played mainstream stuff like Final Fantasy that might be the vision one would get from japs, but you seriously haven't played any VNs or Erogames? You think japs are as wholesome with no foul language?
>>720706140>Soda culprit>Soda execution>Suddenly, the simulation glitches for a bit>Due to a bug, Soda gains infinite HP>The execution is suspended indefinitelyI thought up this scenario 10 years ago and it's still funny to me
>>720706316huh fair enoughI just thought their language is just... very polite by defaultlike I doubt they can get as foul as some other languages because they do not even have the words in their dictionary to do that
>>720706285Not making Nagito schizo out is the easiest path change they can do since he only does that when nobody starts killing.If something happens at the start which changes the status quo and, say, Sonia kills Kazuichi for some reason then Nagito will just remain "stable" for a while.In turn that won't make Nagito schizo-ing out the reason Fuyuhiko is distrustful leading into chapter 2 and so on.
>>720706398>>720706316they unironically use english to curse, it's quite funny
>>720706586To be fair, English is a really fun language to curse with.
>>720705514It's all relative, her schtick is still pretty tame in comparison to:>I NEED TO SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT>Date-rape: the character>Teh penguin of doometc.It also helps that she's just more level headed and is capable of being reasonable.
I bet the characters who didn't get rebuttal showdowns will get them this time
>>720706948Chiaki, Hiyoko, Akane, Imposter, Teruteru, Ibuki and Mikan?
>>720706158Ironic it was a lady who scared him straight to stop demeaning women.
>>720706948Ah shit Chiaki will get one if we have to kill her again.
>haven't seen any threads on shuten orderDid it bomb that hard?
>>720706282>-Somehow prevent his morbid anxiety over his mom from making him kill someoneNagito pushed him to do it anyways>-Prevent him from being a murder victim.Same way Kazuichi didn't get himself killed
>>720663321Would her surviving be too obvious?I'm still salty we were robbed of the potentially best character arc in the series.
>>720707853>Mean girl becomes... NICE?!it's not that crazy, anon
>>720707716>Same way Kazuichi didn't get himself killedI swear the sole reason why he didn't die is because the entire cast would be fucked during chapter 4.
>>720707881tropes are fine if they are executed well
>>720707404It went the way of Rain Code, so yes.
>>720708378Hiyoko will also be fine if she's executed well
Guys, what if they add Scrum Debate?
>>720709196Don't do this. Add Death Road of Despair instead
>>720707853I want her to live because she's adorable, and her existence makes disgusting redditors seethe.
>Nagito kills Teru>Manages to prevent his execution somehow>Gets away with it and the game casually progresses to chapter 2Would be absolute kino
>>720705929Twogami not dying would change things a lot since he really would be a good leader
Should I spend my money and time on Mitsubishi newest slop or am I better of replaying a Danganronpa
>>720711608>Mitsubishi newest slopWhat?
>>720711947Hundred Line
>>720670210Why is she so fucking hot?
>>720712218100L no reason to replay danganronpa if you can play dangan 2.0
>Not only does Kazuichi survive>He's the protagonist this time
>>720673512>Mondos pickaxe?
>>720690126Anon, that is literally the opposite of what he said. Not only can you not retcon the third game because it has nothing to do with the rest of the franchise (unless you outright connect it), but you can't retcon the anime either because everyone wakes up anyway. The events that preceded everyone waking up don't really fucking matter if it leads to the same outcome anyway. Also, I seriously don't understand how people still think that a new game existing retcons the ending of the third, stop thinking the third game has anything to do with the rest of the franchise, it doesn't.
>>720714071>In the garden shed they find a pickaxe with Mondo's gang's logo on it>"Woah, this is weird, what's up with this?">Never bring it up again
>>720690098>at the time>DR2That shit released in 2012. I don't think there were any threads on it outside of people posting spoiler frames of everyone in their suits in threads for DR1 and the /a/ anime threads (2013)I forgot the release date of the PSP translation thing that gave us the "Super Duper" translations but I think that was the kick-off point for /v/ at least.Back then was a grim as fuck time because I think the Danganronpa fanbase before then had to suck dick for scraps and wait for a faggot to slowly do a "Let's Play" on fucking something awful or look up plot summaries from TUMBLR while telling you which tracks to listen to on youtube. Grim fucking time but I do somewhat miss it.
>>720702494>All the voices for the remake have been completely re-recorded. To reiterate, we were able to secure the original voice actors for all characters except Monokuma and Monomi.Pretty odd to do that, I don’t understand why not just have the game feature the new scenario, the remake feel pretty extra.
>>720702494>Voice acting redone>New scenario is as long or possibly even longer than the originalHuh.
>>720704890>Kazuichi surviving, but this time with Mahiru around to force him into being a better man and Sonia deadAlready a better survivor dynamic the anything we had. The only real loss will be Fuyuhiko, but he had a full arc. I do wish he could stick around to make amends with Mahiru, but I can see that role being taken over by Peko.
>>720715051I want to see a Fuyuhiko that goes on a downfall arc after someone kills Peko
>>720705757>extremely contrived circumstancesThat describes half the original motives anyway
>>720715304I seriously want to see Fuyuhiko kill someone the case after Peko gets murdered.
>>720715691One thing I hate about the original motives is that they're almost all played completely straight, there's no extra layer to them unlike the other two games.>Teruteru kills because of needing to know what happened to his mom>Peko seems unrelated, but is actually related to Fuyuhiko and thus is simply carrying out his revenge >Person with Despair Disease is the killer>Gundham kills to escape Even Nagito's motive at first seems to just be "kill the traitor", however being the based character that he is that gets flipped on its head. Only in the final chapter though.
>>720716208>Gundham kills to escapeIn simple terms, but I like what it represents. It's more like a survival of the fittest where he thinks everyone else is a pussy for choosing to die over surviving. Him and Nekomaru both believed this and fought to the death over it. It's a good motive that also makes the others value their lives more.
>>720716208well to play devil's advocate, the DR1 motives are "more complex" but they are still pretty banal >Sayaka wanted to murder Leon because...she was worried about her bandmates>Mondo accidentally killed Chihiro because....uh he got really mad that Chihiro wanted to change while he remained a sad cuck because of his brother's death>Celestia killed because..she wanted money so she can have a harem of vampire butlers >Sakura killed herself to fulfil Monokuma's wish and have them spare her love interest due to the loophole of technically killing someone.
>>720716208Yeah past case 2 every murderer is basically forced to kill someone either be it because of a disease making them crazy or because they along with everyone else would starve to death if someone didn't kill. If they want less forced scenarios they'll definitely want to avoid a repeat of the tragic circumstances of 2-2 so Mahiru has a high chance of surviving or being a murderer.
>>720716286I do agree with that, and it's the only aspect of his character that I respect, but it's still played completely straight. If the other motives weren't so simple, I'd probably like it more. I don't know, compare it to the other games.>Leon kills out of adrenaline due Sayaka losing her mind, the actual motive didn't actually affect him>Chihiro's death is not because he had a secret to hide, but because he revealed it>Celeste was always planning to kill, she was just waiting for the most convenient moment >Sakura's reveal was to get someone who doesn't trust her to kill her, this is flipped on its head when she kills herself instead to bring the whole cast together I can make one for the third game too.>>720716374Read the above post, there's an attempt at a subversion for each character. The reason I specifically point out Leon and not Sayaka is because he was the actual killer. His motive wasn't as simple as it turns out to be, and is basically what's the interesting part of the case, the fact that Sayaka was trying to kill him.>>720716408That's one of the problems with revealing the mind-wipe so early. The tragedy is implied by the end of the first game, because all these characters were friends and they fucking killed each other, but the second game just throws that away. I can see something like Twilight Syndrome still being a motive, but this time someone actually unrelated does the kill.
>>720677726>when Tsugumi is basically KodakaYou got it the wrong way around, Tsugumi is the danganronpa fan that want it to go on forever, Kodaka is the good guys telling her to fuck off and you can't let this shit go on forever!
>>720679007I swear Hinata's hair keeps getting shorter but his ahoge bigger.Also he looks way more feminine in the new one desu. I liked that he was a more comparatively "manly" guy compared to naegi in 1. isn't Hinata way taller than most characters?
>>720716841>"Kodaka doesn't want it to go on forever.">Post-Danganronpa has done nothing but make Danganronpa-litesYou're retarded. The guy likes his mystery games, and he really likes it when people get invested in his games. I mean fuck, dude decided to save Tribe Nine for free (and doing it in his spare time) because of people begging him for it and seeing their passion for it. That's the point of the ending, a rejection of a nihilistic enjoyment of fiction where you just watch and aren't invested because "it's fiction and doesn't matter". You're supposed to get invested and have real emotion.
>>720717028Outside of Rui's artstyle, how is Hundred Line similar to DR?
>>720717028I mean, in a way, breaking away from making Danganronpa further proves the point that he wants people to give a shit outside of it being Danganronpa. He's not tired of making Danganronpa, I think he's more just tired of people enjoying it simply because the "Danganronpa" name is slapped onto it, but he obviously doesn't hate the franchise.>>720717082There's a killing game route.
>>720717082Same musicSame vibesIt's basically Danganronpa, since Danganronpa was so crazy you could even make a tps of it like they did
>>720717028He was tired of doing the same thing over and over of killing games (entirely his fault btw), reread some of tsugumi and the audience's lines.His next game wasn't a killing game, he didn't write the killing game route for 100 lines either, but I assume he had it in there because just like Kojima he let his audience put him in a box and now he's the killing game danganronpa guy, just like Kojima kept saying he hated making new metal gear games and lo and behold his next project is an action espionage game.
>>720717192I think it's just Kodaka wanting the Danganronpa money for himself instead of sharing it with their previous company. Notice how basically all Capcom boomers who quit did the same, some of them even crawling back to try to make the new old ips again since they sell more
>>720717028Nobody asked for more tribe nine, it was always shit. Just use that effort to write 2x2 instead
>>720717192>spoilerIf you want a comparison you should have used the Mystery route instead, since it sorta uses the persuasion minigame as a mini-class trial.KG is as far removed from the DR "killing game" as possible.
>>720663321>They'd rather remake DR2 than make a new RaincodeRaincode bros how do we cope.....
>>720717245You are dumb. Kodaka simply didn't want another killing game.Of course he'd love to continue working with the same artists, writers and composers he has worked with in the past. That's what HL is.But HL isn't a killing game for 95% of it, and even then its plot progression is not like Danganronpa.
>>720717192He wants Danganronpa popularity money BUT also want the lazy route aka no puzzles/courts. It's like Uchikoshi, he chose le memes XD over making real puzzles like before
>>720717457>Of course he'd love to continue working with the same artists, writers and composersYeah because without those his games sell less.>It's not like DanganronpaIt's basically Danganronpa without the killing games though, it's not like Danganronpa needed to be about killing games only, see Cumaru game
>>720717447we were robbed pucci bros
>>720717283I think using the audience is a complete analogue for the real life audience is stupid. They want to see real people die under the guise of "they're fictional characters so it doesn't matter". Like obviously they're based on extreme fans, but it's taking theirs and Tsumugi's nihilistic ideology to its limit where you can justify killing real people and not give a shit because they're fake characters. The whole point is that you're supposed to care about fiction. I mean one of the themes of the games is lying, and in this case "fiction" and "lies" represent the same thing. Something that's not real is able to have a tangible effect on people.>>720717343There was enough demand that Kodaka is keeping it alive through "fan works" and it's not taking up development time, since it's something he's doing purely during his free time. He said he needed a hobby, kek.
>>720717515Well Spike wanted him to continue making killing games, which is why he had a crashout with V3.
>>720717604Yeah because killing games require some puzzle and level design. It's like how companies choose open world because it's the lazy route compared to games with actually good level designs, puzzles, good backtracking etc
>>720717457It's still a Danganronpa game but only the visual novel parts.
>>720717656Do people really play Danganronpa for the "puzzles"? Like are you really fucking telling me that the series got popular over fucking 11037?
>>720717731For ace attorney exploration and investigation? Yeah. Hell you could remove the gameplay parts from THL and it could improve by being and honest visual novel
Rain Code and Hundred Line are obviously supposed to hark back to Danganronpa and anyone who says they don't are being disingenuous bastards.
>>720717731I think most people agree the trials are the best parts, yes.
Tribe Nine bros?
>>720717572>They want to see real people die under the guise of "they're fictional characters so it doesn't matter"This is why you should reread the ending, they don't want to see any people die nder some guise, they want to watch danganronpa.If you can read lines like pic related as anything other than how the author perceives the fan pressuring him to keep making a series he doesn't want to, you seriously need to wake up.Let's not forget that the audience is represented with real photos as you can see in the back, I know they use regular CG too but isn't it a bit odd to pair dialogue like this with pictures of real people?
i just woke up from a dream where i was sleeping in my bed and kyoko kirigiri climbed under my covers and under my arms and was my little spooni can't stop thinking about it
>>720718014>Going through an entire gacha just to reveal that the entire cast has made-up memories or aren't real for the third timeCouldn't be me
>>720717731Most people who enjoy kodaka shit enjoy it as a kind of slop where you turn your brain off and you just enjoy the ride of the stupid crazy shit that happens in the cases, the visuals and stupid twists where everyones a robot or whatever.Theres nothing else to really like about it, unless you just play the games to know the characters so you can enjoy the porn more I guess.
>>720663321Is this being made by Kodaka?
Hiyoko lolidom...
>>720718295AI Kodaka
>>720718295Thankfully not, he realised he can stay in a supervisor role now and leave the actual writing to people with talent.
>anons who said dr1 was skipped because 2's deaths matter the least were righti still think it's a copout. you can change things in DR1 and still keep the world building going.
>>720718031>One of the points is that the word is a better place because people get to watch death games>They've turned off their brains so hard that the only thing they can accept is the same shit over and over again but more extreme to get their rocks offSure, "Danganronpa" represents a formula, but it's not because the fans demanded it, it's because that's the story Kodaka wanted to tell. The second game didn't need to establish the formula if Kodaka didn't want it to, and the third game sure as hell didn't need to double down on it. But he did, because he found that an interesting story to tell. Yes, Danganronpa is the same shit over and over again, that's the point, but Kodaka wrote it that way on purpose (while also still trying to make things interesting because obviously you can't get away with repeating the same shit). The point is and always has been to appreciate fiction, which is why the main theme of the game is lying.
>>720718295Supervised by KodakaWhich really means fuckall because he could either direct how things play out or just give a thumbs up to every script that comes his way.
>>720718319whats the best hiyoko lolidom scenario?
>>720718319Hiyoko killer for the 2nd scenario!
>>>/vg/539130390
>>720718380but they already did that, it's called DR ifno one cares about alternate reality spinoffs
>>720718494???IF causes significant chances because nobody dies.
>>720718341Yeah he's just been dropping the ball a lot I agree>>720718384Sounds like marketing talk, I'm assuming he's not really involved
I am afraid that everyone will feel off just like in Danganronpa 3 anime
>>720718608Where? HL and RC were solid entries. No worse than most DR games.
The only reason why Kodaka is even in the credits is so he can shill more of his games to DRfags. He probably doesn't even know what the new plot is about.
>>720718592so you want them to rewrite DR1, but not change who dies and who the final survivors are? what's the point of that
>>720718380>you can change things in DR1 and still keep the world building going.Yes and no.A lot of DR1 survivors shape future entries, outside of DR2, so you basically create an entire new worldline where things have to be changed substantially.With DR2 they have much more freedom because only the anime is after it and DR2 characters have a minimal impact in Future/Hope arc
>>720718031>>720718383Like if Kodaka was truly sick of Danganronpa, he would've just made the third game way different instead of repeating the tropes that were established in the first game. But I have no doubt in his mind he's built up Danganronpa in a way where he found it interesting to keep doubling down rather than expanding outwards, if that makes sense. Which is why the third game is the culmination of the formula, and why Danganronpa had to "end". Like I said, the guy clearly loves his murder mysteries and nothing would've stopped him from changing up Danganronpa how he wants, but he had a story he wanted to tell and then moved on to making more murder mysteries afterwards.
>muh overarching DR loreabsolutely fucking worthless.Nobody fucking cares about the Future Foundation and shit.
>>720717731I mean it already has better gameplay than hundred line
>>720718453When you send your fire emblem spam to /vg/, fejanny
>>720718769Juzo is based
>>720718857eh debate-able.Most class trial minigames are ass
>>720718341>>720718608The dude writing this made the Romance and Conspiracy routes in THL. You tell me if that gives you confidence.
>>720718681I'd change the order of death and killers. Even if you end with the same surviving cast, you could easily explore different sides to the ignored ones (Kiyotaka, Sayaka, Mukuro etc) and even redeem the dogshit writing on the others like Celeste and Hifumi.
>>720718662>Solid entriesI agree rain code was a solid fun game and I enjoyed my time with it and didn't mind paying full price for it, I just wish they didn't go with the ace attorney episodic format with all new characters every chapter since they don't really know how to do that. Hundred line is... Idk I haven't gotten the true ending and I'm 100 hours in and it's all so samey and boring with hours upon hours of downtime, I hate having to skip through the same battles again and again and the stupid good morning and goodnight announcements... It has some great moments though>No worse than most DR gamesI disagree, the original trilogy is better than rain code and hundred line, even V3
>>720718934Uchikoshi also wrote E17 but then gave us R11, you can always learn from your mistakes
>>720718934I only did the first romance route with pumpkinhead, I did the conspiracy route but I already forgot, which one is that?
>>720718975>Redeem HifumiBro it's way easier to redeem Teruteru than him, that retard has no good trait whatsoever
>>720718934It tells me that there may not be any yaoibait, which would be nice.Also gives me hope that he will make Hiyoko one of the survivors, knowing how he prioritized Kurara in his scenarios.
Fuck, I have a bit more to say. Kodaka being aware of the tropes and playing with it is why we have a huge twist like Kaede being brushed to the side with the Monokubs freaking out over one of their own dying. Kodaka continues with the trope of "unexpected thing happens pre-trial and during the trial" and arguably pulls off his biggest and most interesting stunt with Kaede, but because this is the third time's this happened he can also coyly act like it doesn't matter by throwing in the Monokubs shit. He's having his cake and eating it too. It's why Kokcihi spoils the fourth case. It's why fucking Korekiyo exists, but I genuinely think that was proper bad writing compared to everything else. Kodaka's intent is pretty obvious.
>>720719090Kodaka isn't writing this, you dolt
>>720718975So like, Sayaka lives longer, but still ends up dying anyway? Could be interesting.
Massive 2-5 spoilers aheadI doubt they will ever surpass this case, the parallel between playing russian roulette with 1/6 odds vs finding out the killer with 1/6 is too kino
>>720718707Also getting tired after just 3 games is pure boomer moment. Imagine killing such a succesful formula so soon
>>720719123I'm not talking about the remake, I'm just expanding on the conversation being had about the third game. Also he's somewhat involved, apparently writing the "tricks". See >>720702494.
danganronpa 1 deserves a remake just so we get another joke ending like when aoi was railed by all the guys but instead all the survivors are all the girls and chihiro.
>>720718991I dont think Kodaka's ever topping the golden duo of DR1 and DR2. But I don't count V3 in that. It's hands down worse than HL and Rain code for me. A lot of that game rubbed me the wrong way, and I'm not talking about the ending. I feel it has the worst aspects of Kodaka's writing>always looking for a twist at the cost of coherence>trying to recapture the greatness of old developments and failing spectacularly>stuck on formulas
>>720719045 The one where you take the red pill
>>720718707>if Kodaka was truly sick of Danganronpa, he would've just made the third game way different instead of repeating the tropes that were established in the first game.I think nuking your own franchise by making your characters saying in plain text "we'll end danganronpa" after the in universe series has been ran to the ground with 53 seasons could potentially be an indication he's tired of the franchise, and why he went off to do other games right after that had nothing to do with it and is only returning in a supervising role for 2x2.Fan pressure and also I'd imagine studio pressure wouldn't let him do anything other than killing games. I highly suggest you reread the whole final trial.
>>720719250Yeah everything around that stuff is kind of a blur for me desu, meh
>>720719262>Fan pressure and also I'd imagine studio pressure wouldn't let him do anything other than killing games.This. This is the part DRfags don't understand about Kodaka's frustrations. He didn't want to do more games that had the same chapter -> trial chapter structure forever.Case in point: all his future games stopped this formula. Rain Code is similar I guess but each chapter is in another setting with mostly new characters.
>>720719169I think the way he wrote Danganronpa, it was inevitable. Again, this was intentional. Like I said, he doesn't build outwards, he instead double downs on tropes established, and you can only do that so many times before it gets stale, you know? It's the story he wanted to tell, and I liked it. If the second game didn't intentionally point out that there's supposed to be a formula, then I think we could've gotten way more from Kodaka, but again, he chose to double down. This was his goal.>>720719262Anon, he's "nuking" the Danganronpa he created, the one with the same tropes and ideas. No shit he'd get tired of it, because he knew he'd get tired of it. The third game is the culmination of what he built. He didn't end it because of the fans, or because he was "forced" to make more. He ended it because that was the natural conclusion after making the games the way he did.
>>720719262>wouldn't let him do anything other than killing gamesThey literally let him do the Girls tps spin off dude This is just Kodaka wanting the Danganronpa money for himself just like Inafune wanted MegaMan money for him only
>>720719219I can see where you're coming from and my appreciation of V3 diminished when I bought the physical Danganronpa legacy or whatever it's called for the switch that has everything but UDG and after replaying the trilogy I just got stuck on the chapter 5 trial and didn't feel like continuing. I still think it's a fun little romp and worth playing, maybe just not replaying
>>720719476He is still making Danganronpa though. THL is basically 120 hours of Danganronpa VN parts
>>720719524>This is just Kodaka wanting the Danganronpa money for himself just like Inafune wanted MegaMan money for him onlyThis, it reminds me of when Suda51 sabotaged the company he worked at by purposefully killing their biggest IP, using it as a spring board for his own "kill the past" series and also poached all the talent in the studio to make his own.
>>720719387>Case in point: all his future games stopped this formulaYour case is already flawed because Tribe Nine and Raincode are basically just Danganronpa with the same shock value deaths, class trials and whatever other thing that came from Danganronpa.Rain Code is so blatantly Danganronpa they even have the death -> investigation -> "class trial" formula
>>720719713Or like Mikami. He didn't even work on tew, other people did he just wanted to take credits by putting his name on it. Of course tew was trying to get the Resident Evil public. And Mikami, just like Kamiya, abandoned their team because they keep seeing their previous company making x4 more money than them kekI think some gacha shit posted something about some blue archive devs trying to sabotage BA before making their own BA (project kv or something)
>>720719629If you read the rest of the posts, you'll see that I agree with you. I'm not saying he's sick of murder-mysteries or the general idea of Danganronpa. He one hundred percent is still making games like it, because he loves that kind of stuff. I'm saying that "Danganronpa" as a franchise is one that kept doubling down on tropes because Kodaka intentionally wanted to go in that direction, which is why the third game is the culmination of these tropes. I think most murder-mystery franchises try to do things different most of the time, but with Danganronpa, Kodaka intentionally stuck to similar things, because that's simply an interesting direction to take a franchise that isn't done that often. The only issue is that there's only so far you can go with it, which is why Danganronpa had to "end". I hope I'm making my point clear here. Kodaka does not hate Danganronpa, nor does hate fans. But this is the natural conclusion of the Danganronpa he wrote, because that's the story he wanted to tell, while also telling his fans to appreciate fiction and that every emotion they feel from his stories are real.
>>720719629120 hours? I'm 100 hours in and still not done and it feels like there are still 50 more hours.What's the deal with this game btw? I know nothing about its story other than being a Kodaka and Uchikoshi game (sounds pretty good in theory, but it never reaches the heights of DR or zero escape) why is it so long? I see in this thread that there were writers working on specific routes, were they scoping out talent? Very weird game and concept
>>720719907
>>720719907>why is it so long?It's because they wanted the stupid gimmick of it being a hundred days but also a hundred endings so the games filled with pointless padding to stretch it out as much as they can.
Kodaka mistake was not adapting the student council killing game as its own game instead of making it an anime episode.Also he should've used Yukizome as the successive villain to Junko instead of doing that whole thing with the Ultimate Animator and then kill off all future villains which led to V3 and its garbage villain cast.
>>720719879It's more about the money like we are saying here. THL could have been called "Danganronpa: 100 days" as a new universe and it would have made more money, but of course, Spike Chunsoft would take like 80% of it. Kodaka wants the 100% or 80% at least. D2x2 having already 10 millions views says a lot.Personally i think Spike and Kodaka are just wasting time>Spike with letting Danganronpa ip rot>Kodaka wasting the talent in games that sell less It's like seeing some guy quit from resident evil then make Evil Citizen with not!Tyrant, a sunglasses villain called Lesker and totally not Jill fighting zombies and that game selling way less, instead of them reaching some agreement and be honest and use that effort on the popular ip one
>>720719476>No shit he'd get tired of it, because he knew he'd get tired of it.So he wrote a formulaic story, doubled down on it causing himself to get tired of it and decided to nuke it to end it?If the story he wanted to tell was "the series I write is a formulaic piece of shit that should have ended already and fuck you overbearing fucks for telling me to keep going", I'm sorry to say that's not very much to my taste.I also want to add "What you feel from fiction is valid!" is also a stupid ass message that has absolutely no merit being said in a story. Picture books with morals do that. Just write a good story that impacts people instead of rehashing the same formulaic story and then getting tired of it. Assuming he was the one who wanted to do a formulaic story and not fan pressure or studio pressure (need I remind you Tsugumi is a member of Team Danganronpa, the studios making the games?)
>>720719907He is trying to make money using chatgpt. He gives the characters with one or 2 traits and hire others to work on the rest. Peak laziness
>>720720041>D2x2 having already 10 millions views says a lot.I don't disagree, but this is also because Hajime, Chiaki and Nagito basically carry the series.
>>720720071Kodaka acting like he made 10 dangan games for some fucking reason
>>720719907fuck all the people that said this is a ZE game, it's just a DR game
>>720719907THL is undoubtedly better than ZTD and arguably VLR (which in my opinion was going great until it reached that terrible ending)
>>720720169The multiple timeline stuff seems zero escape like but I barely scratched the surface of it since it's peppered over a lot of different routes but I haven't found the main one dedicated to it, no spoilers please
>>720720071>Studio pressureNo, Kodaka wanted more money. It's simply that. The studios allowed him to make Despair Girl games
>>720720271holy fucking retard take but what can you expect in a DR thread you're obviously going to like the DR-like game more
>>720720271Ztd is a masterpiece and I never got the hate, is it autism or what?
>>720719907It's a very experimental game where most of it wasn't even written by the main writer of the 1st and second routes (Kodaka).The other writers had Kodaka's main routes as a starting point and they had the job to imagine any wild scenario they desired, with supervision from Uchikoshi.It is essentially a compilation of fanfictions.
>>720720167Always reminded me of Kojima when he made MGS2 as a big "deconstruction" and it's like, people only gave a fuck about MGS1.
>>720720071If you don't like it, fair enough. I don't think he unintentionally got "tired of it". I think he knew that by the third game, he'd have to stop. The formula is intentional and if you read >>720719090, you'll see how he plays with it. He didn't need to have a "shocking" first case, he didn't need to do a double murder every third case, nor did he need to have the big guy die every fourth case, but he did, because he intentionally wrote it that way. I also think you're projecting some kind of hatred that he doesn't have. He obviously doesn't think it's a piece of shit, considering he's trying to make each chapter interesting despite the tropes. It's just he has to work within the confines of the tropes, because he's locked himself into doing that. And again, this isn't something he's bitter about, this is something he chose to do and knew he would have to do. He doesn't hate you as a fan. I personally think the rehashing is pretty interesting, especially because it's intentional, you don't see many franchises intentionally do that. That's why I think the meta aspect of the third game works, because it's aware of what it's doing, and thus both you and the game are in on an inside joke that the rest of the characters aren't. As for the "feelings are valid", I think that was delivered fine. Shuichi's pain was really well done, and the suffering he had to go through for basically no reason is cruel as fuck. It's cathartic to see him fight against it, especially against a wave of nihilistic retards who just want to see him die because he's fictional. I like what the ending conveyed and I think it tied its themes well, especially considering that lying was one of them and that seemed to go nowhere, but once you realize that "lies" and "fiction" are the same thing, it makes sense that you lying can progress the game. Just as how fiction can progress people into who they are. Completely fair if you don't like it, anon (cont).
What will DR4 be like?
>>720720071>>720720656But I think it's good to understand that the ending isn't a big "fuck you", but rather more of a celebration of what Danganronpa is and you getting to be the one to bring its curtain call.
>>720720676what twist has he not done yet?he's done it simulation, everyone having fake memories, everyone being clones and everyone being androids.
>>720720930What game is everyone being androids? One of the newer ones? If so no spoilers please Also, you don't need those big twists to have a great story. Look at the og ace attorney trilogy
>>720720519I love Comedy so fucking much.
>>720720071>>720720656>>720720735Once more, I have a little extra to say. Maybe I'm projecting some of my feelings, because I came into the third game with the same nihilistic mindset the audience had of "new Danganronpa, same shit". Of course I was excited, but I told myself that it wouldn't impact me as much. Lo and behold they throw the Kaede curveball, but then also fuck with how I and the cast cope with it by sticking to the "new Danganronpa, same shit" with the Monokubs shtick. Doesn't help that this ended up being my favorite cast, and I got hit the hardest emotionally by Gonta's case out of all of the cases in the series (despite me not even liking him that much).
>>720721054>What game is everyone being androids?its shuten order. >Also, you don't need those big twists to have a great story. Look at the og ace attorney trilogywe aren't talking about ace attorney, we're talking about a kodaka game and in kodaka games theres always big over the top twist like that thats the center of the entire story so picking what kind of over the top twist he hasn't done yet would be what DR4 could be
>>720720271Hell no.
>>720721279>comedyFuck you and fuck the comedy routes... tooo many fucking branches where 95% isnt even really funny at all. wasted like 2-3 days of my fucking life reading through that slog. Worst routes in the entire game
>>720721380noit was funni
>>720721348Well I clicked the spoiler, I guess I'll skip that game it probably isn't that good anyway. I know the second zero escape had that twist too but it was only the mc
>>720720735>a celebration of what Danganronpa isI really struggle to understand how you could read the entire ending and think of this as a celebration of the franchise in any way.Neither of us are going to budge so continuing is useless, but I highly highly suggest you reread the ending with what I've said in mind.
>>720721453He wasn't, the twist in VLR was that he was an old man iirc.
>>720720463>>720721363The memes that spawned from that game don't count and they butchered Akane and Junpei to an embarrassing degree after VLR did such a great job with them. I said this before in the past, but Junpei tearing into Akane in ZTD for the bullshit she made him go through felt incredibly cathartic... until it's revealed that he went to the mars test site to fucking propose to her. I vastly preferred the end result of their relationship in VLR, where he accepts that the Akane he loved and the Akane that exist are two different people, and instead commits to raising Quark with what little time he has left.
>>720721453You learn the twist as little as 6 hours in, its not a big deal.
>>720721590Correct. He was something much more horrific than an Android for japanese people, he was over 30. He did have an Android arm and I think the guy in armor was either a clone or android of him
>>720721548>Pushes its tropes to the extreme>Validates you if you give a shit about the characters>Is a satisfying conclusion that you get to herald>Unlocks a game mode where you get to see more of the characters and have them interact with each otherJust because Tsumugi is an insane bitch and you're projecting something hard onto her, doesn't mean she represents the game's message. Everything comes to an end, especially a franchise like Danganronpa that acknowledges it has a formula that it sticks to. This is the natural conclusion.
>>720721548anon Tsumugi is the villain...
>>720722078>represents anyone realIs what I meant to say. Kodaka doesn't hate the fans, simple as.
>>720721923I meant to say vlr was a masterpiece but ztd isn't that bad for what it is. Honestly you guys treat these games like high art and it's why you get disappointed by games like ztd and DR v3
>Shuichi convinces everyone to not vote>In the Epilogue he implies that the audience decided to save them>Literal evidence that the audience ends up caring for the main cast and doesn't want them to die, acknowledging they're more than just fictional characters that are disposable
I feel like it's inevitable that the boat brings in a handful of completely original, brand new characters to spice up the game a little.
>>720722583>inb4 they're cameo's from Kodaka's other games so he can shill them more
>>720719163The Zero escape segment with Nagito in chapyer 4 was fucking kino for setting that up.

>>720726154i like all the danganronpa games and the 3 anime but i will never interact with the actual community, it's like torture
>>720704890This is perfect, because Soda was only annoying when Sonia is in the same breathing space as him. Whenever he's not focused on her, he's fine.
>>720718934Haven't done Conspiracy yet, but Romance was fine for what it was as a goofy side story. The interactions were cute, especially in the moments where it breaks away from Takky and it's just the girls supporting each other.

>>720726154Kodaka-sama will give us even more fanservice in the remake. I believe in his horny might.

The only good part about it was the combined shitposting here and on /a/.
>>720727072well I was in those threads, yes there were bad moments but seeing the dr2 cast in anime form was nice
>>720726154mikan's execution IS dogshit though, i wouldn't mind a redo.
>>720727330Not for the same reason but actually true. There again, 2-3 as a whole needs a redo. It's the most blatant case of writing a straightforward single murder but shoving in a second victim because uuuh the first game did it.
