ITS A LIE!

"We've met several times before. Each time we were a little different, But we always became friends..Maybe we were more"

Kaimaki has been eating at my brain recently and this idea is part of it.

Spoilers

So if you're still reading I'd assume you're familiar with Danganronpa and how in it; Kaito brought Maki to train with him and Shuichi because he seen her more than just an assassin

I like to think that stretched beyond just in the killing game

Pregame; I imagine Maki was distant for a similar reason(In my head pregame backstories are nearly the same as in-game, Only one or two things are added or exaggerated to make them the Ultimates), And Kaito dragged her along to hang out and they became good friends. When Kaito auditioned to be on Danganronpa, Maki hardly had anyone else so she joined with him too; Mostly to try and protect him, But more for other reasons that don't lay important to mention right now

In the killing game(As I mentioned before) he did the same thing, Annoying her until she finally gave in and hung out with him. Becoming friends and Maki even developing feelings despite being in such a dangerous circumstance

In Danganronpa Summer Camp/Ultimate Talent Development plan(Though not canon, Deserves an honorary mention). They meet under different circumstances and Kaito seems to have done the same thing once again and dragged Maki along to training. Eventually becoming such good friends that Maki tells him she's the Ultimate Assassin. Even in such a contrast to the killing game where it would change how they talk to and act around each other they still became friends

This probably makes no goddamn sense but basically what I mean is; I'm hooked on the idea of them meeting in completely different settings with personalities that slightly or drastically differ, Yet they still always become friends

Like soulmates who date throughout every reincarnation

It's up,

I Don't Believe in Ghosts by NoGirls_TOY

Been pondering an AU where because of Maki's connection to death and dying(Her talent) she can see the ghosts of the V3 cast sticking around the school and just doesn't tell anyone(Cause why would she?)

Eventually few of the ghosts catch on that she has (not obvious) reactions to stuff they say and do, Chaos insues.

Few fun facts about Angie Yonaga!!

She hates the police, She calls them "heathens" because they get in the way of her cults traditions

She's an advocate for human trafficking because she thinks it's purely for ordering willing sacrifices

She's an active murderer(Sacrifices people who are willing or not)

She's tasted human blood before but doesn't think it's "tasty"

She can't feel negative emotions so she can only empathize with people(Which also plays apart in how she gets confused why her actions in chapter three make people upset)

She seems to canonically be attracted to Tsumugi or at least her body, She has several points in the game where she compliments her body and even once asked if she could touch her chest

She hates children and laughs at their pain

She's very proudly sexual in nature and says her god enjoys watching

"Something went wr"

I'm gonna make you go wrong, Tumblr, let me send asks in

Texan Shuichi.

He's still Japanese but grew up in Texas and moved back to Japan when he was like 13/14 so he has an accent he just desperately tries to hide

It slips when he gets like really pissed off or when he's tired as hell

Bored in school again so I feel to share four more pregame takes

Part one(Maki, Kaito, Kokichi, Shuichi)

Now I'll be doing Kaede, Miu, Kiibo, And Rantaro

Firstly I'll note that Kaede and Rantaro go to a school together, And Kiibo and Miu go to a different one(Therefore the two duos don't really know each other)

So, Kaede Akamatsu - Acts the same and has the same backstory as in-game just was never ultimate-level at piano and didn't win all those awards. She had like a celebrity-crush on Rantaro and once he joined her school temporarily, She decided to take the chance and befriend him. Learning she could audition to be in the game with him, She hardly had anything going for her so it didn't really bother her about the possibility she could die

Rantaro Amami - Also acts basically the same just less apart and closed off cause he doesn't have the need to figure his talent out or the survivor perk telling him not to trust anyone. He obviously didn't audition and has a disliking for the killing game because how it's affected him

Miu Iruma - Theater club. She was like a goody-two-shoes, Modest, Never really cursed unless it was in the script, Honor roll. But she never really stood out, And she wanted to be more than just smart. Though not wanting to die and knowing the chance of dying in the killing game, She joined because she just wanted to be remembered in some way. Also she got a Polaroid camera from her mom she carries around everywhere, She takes a lot of photos that she usually isn't in. Photographer Miu is in my heart

Kiibo - Built just for the killing game and was planned to just be dismantled/scrapped if he survived. He hardly has much of a personality because of this, Team Danganronpa just didn't bother to give him one outside of his in-game one that he'd be given through the flashback light. Though in scenes I imagine him in, He does have similar if not the same opinions on certain things he does in-game. I always imagined him meeting Miu through coming to like every show she did on stage but never actually introducing himself till he ran into her somewhere while she was taking pictures.

Did Caine fuck the moon?

Like "Let's get out of here before the moon gets frisky!"?? Did the fucking floating teeth in a suit fuck the space rock? Cause it seems like that to me

I'm quite bored so I'm gonna explain my Danganronpa x Ride the Cyclone AU(They're not exactly tight-casted to the characters, The most they take from the character's directly is their songs)

The Amazing Karnak - Monodam

Out of everyone among the Monokubs and Monokuma, Monodam seems like he'd be the only one who'd be willing to give them a chance to compete for another chance at life

No hate to anyone who casted Monokuma as Karnak, But Monokuma would never give these kids the chance

Virgil the Rat - Monokid

Monokid plays guitar and has a distaste for Monodam, Therefore, Motive to just kill him for kicks. Need I say more?

Ocean Rosenberg - Rantaro Amami

You need to hear me out. People always cast Miu or Angie as Ocean when frankly, Rantaro would match with the motive. He hardly knows any of the other contestants(Since he died first and didn't really get to know anyone) and his whole motivation for "What the World Needs" in the first place, Would be his sisters because of his determination and debt feeling that drives him to want to find them

Noel Gruber - Korekiyo Shinguji

Not motivated by his sister thing. "Noel's Lament" would more be motivated by like a want to live a life without her, And using the symbolism of the French Hooker

Idk he was a last resort since I had nobody else who fit

Mischa Bachinski - Angie Yonaga

Your gonna look at me and tell me that it isn't perfect? I doubt I need to explain.

Natalia Bolinski - Tsumugi Shirogane

"Talia" was cut from this considering every character would be there even if they weren't competing(They participate in the unanimous vote and serve as ensemble) but it deserved an honorary mention

Richard (Ricky) Potts - Kokichi Ouma

I've seen people make Shuichi or Kiibo Ricky which really doesn't make sense to me. Kokichi definitely would be more Seattle "Space Age Bachelor Man" than the cast recording version, Saving earth feels more his speed instead of becoming a superhero sex god on a cat planet. Also he wouldn't take it too seriously because he highly doubts anyone will vote for him anyway, So why not go out with a bang?

Jane Doe - Maki Harukawa

I always see people make Tsumugi Jane, When it makes more sense to make a survivor Jane considering the fact she comes back to life. And since in the context of the killing game, Everyone would know anyone else died, But using a survivor would give mystery of not knowing what the fuck happened(Cause you can't exactly make anyone a Jane or John Doe in this context so their motive could be more the mystery of not knowing anything about how you died)

Constance Blackwood - Miu Iruma

Constance's whole shtick is being outcasted and only really known for like one thing and growing sour for that. THAT'S MIU'S WHOLE THING BASICALLY. The whole cast really only uses her for her inventor talent then shuns and ignores her after she finishes something for them, Miu would definitely grow annoyed of that

For how or why she accepted everything about her life is actually undecided but it could probably be because she lost it all and realized how great it was after death like Constance did but idk

So, Yeah, Here

Can there be more content of Korekiyo and Maki's rivalry instead of the mischaracterizational Kokichi and Maki rivalry? Like Korekiyo and Maki get on each others nerves SO MUCH MORE than Kokichi gets on either of their nerves and it's so overlooked when their interactions are so funny</3 Like Maki constantly tells Kiyo to cut his occult bullshit to stay on topic and it rattles him to his core, And Korekiyo called her "Such a poor, miserable girl who can't understand love" TO HER FACE They need more fanart or little stories where they argue like they do in canon, IT'S SO FUNNY

Just gonna,,, Share this

Forgot Tsumugi in the picture but she's Talia

Btw Maki is Jane Doe because I needed to use a survivor for it to make sense(Because of the whole reviving thing) and Maki seemed like the only character out of the three who would be upset and angry rather than accepting, As well as the only character among the three that (almost) everyone was scared of at one point. So she just made sense
