“Why Are You So Obsessed With Getting In My Way?!”

First post!

I'm usually more wholesome with my art, but... Cloud :)

Rin shows Haruka some skills he learned in the land down under~

For Ono♥♥♥♥ We both love Rin so much

Thanks!!!

Firstly so sorry for the graphic image. I found this on the Danganronpa reddit. Also MAJOR DANGANRONPA V3 SPOILERS.

I feel like this very crudely drawn image of Kokichi’s dead crushed up corpse is the last piece I needed to fully accept his death.

Not being able to see the state of the body during the investigation, created a barrier for me to fully understand Kokichi’s exit out of the main story. It just felt like he “left” rather than died.

Additionally, none of the characters saw the dead of the body and that definitely had an impact on their attitude towards him. His death was brushed off because they also never got to see his dead body. Maki didn’t investigate the body and such. There was no opportunity to be traumatized but ample to refuel their hatred towards him.

This is why his absence during the class trial wasn’t discussed to its extent such as with other characters. Imagine seeing the body and then going to the trial where the exisal was talking in his voice. It would be weird. I know for some people, not seeing the body meant that maybe both Kaito and Kokichi were alive and that they used another body to substitute a killing. After Monokuma revealed that it wasn’t possible to do so, I don’t remember anyone who acknowledged the body afterwards due to how the trial was going.

I’m no Kokichi Stan but I did warm up to his character pre-chapter 4. I always felt that his death and trial were lackluster and lacked needed impact. Personally, I thought the trial wasn’t very good but seeing a depiction of the body has changed my opinion on the trial.

Kaito also never saw Kokichi afterwards because he never lifted the press after it crushed him. Kaito doesn’t really have to carry the weight of the plan and his actions, because he never gets to see the honest result of them. Therefore, he was able to focus on the plan to foul Monokuma and strict to the script that a dead boy wrote.

Danganronpa V3 had many victims where the remaining cast had a short mourning period for (Rantaro, Ryoma and Miu). Each student had different circumstances where the cast couldn’t comment too much on their dead peer. Rantaro distanced himself from others, and no one was particular close to Ryoma or Miu.

However, Kokichi was one where almost no one mourned his death.

It’s interesting for sure. I think more people mourned the losses of the culprits more than the victims.

Honestly when I found out that Sakura x Sasuke became canon by the last chapter and read up on the lore, the entire time I thought may this love never find me 🫡

Link Click & AX

Was not able to go to AX but found this from someone who did on reddit.

This is one anecdote from the director regarding the show.

"...regarding the choice/dynamic of having 2 male MCs: having observed many other media, Haoling decided that splitting 1 protagonist into 2 characters would make for better storytelling. by giving the characters only half of what they need, their abilities are more grounded, they are forced to cooperate socially, it gives the audience more entertaining and dynamic banter, and they must build trust in order to effectively accomplish tasks."

Love this statement. When I would explain to my friends why people should watch LC, I would say its a time travel show with an unique premise. There are two main leads. Imagine both are trying to ace a midterm (you can pair up with a buddy lol). One person has the paper & pencil and the other has the answer key. They can't ace the midterm alone without the help of each other's resources - so they must to work together to ace the test because they can only do it once. What seems like a simple example gets applied to solving puzzles/mysteries and finding data.

The interesting part is that the main leads have very different approaches to accomplishing the tasks that they are given. Even though they were friends for a long time, when serious things happen like working a job together, they struggle with their different mindsets and it causes a lot of strife between them. Side note, don’t want to take sides here but I wouldn’t argue with the guy who has the literal answer key you know?

Anyway- Slowly, there became a lack of trust between the leads as both of them start to withhold info from the other. That makes it worse and it hits a boiling point.

Something so simple that happens all the time in real life yet is often never depicted in such a real sense, particularly in an animation format. I like the style of anime but I want my stories to be grounded. I want to see my struggles on the screen.

It's also kinda validating to see a friendship fall apart once you decide to become co workers with one another and realize that just because you two both like basketball, doesnt mean maybe you should run a high-stress somewhat illegal business together right after uni to pay off debt :/

Shipping is such a funny thing...

Cause, like... I wholeheartedly believe that Gaara is, or at one point in their youth was, in love with Naruto. Like, the kind of one-sided love that you learn to be at peace with but never truly get over, you know? And I really don't mean that in a depressing way. It totally works for me that he doesn't end up romantically involved with anyone at the end of the canon telling of this story. It just fits with the way I already read his character and relationships.

BUT AT THE SAME TIME...

Sometimes I rewatch those filler episodes with Fu and can't help but think... I could get behind that pairing.

Like, logically, it could never happen, as she's dead for most of the canon timeline... But... Her energy and enthusiasm paired with his overly formal awkwardness? They could have been something really cute and fun, guys. Nobody's gonna convince me otherwise.

Someone on his team needs to tell him that his shredded belt skirt isn’t working for him.

ALSO WHY DID HE WEAR HIS NORMAL BATTLE OUTFIT ON HIS BIG DAY?!? My man was out there during his whole ceremony wearing that?!?! Change it up man it’s your BIG DAY.

Rufus isn’t even a hard boss he is just an annoying boss.

Spoiled brat i aint got time for you and your stupid pettiness with your privileged ass thinking your feelings matter more than the crisis at hand, go away!

I know I’m like a decade late to this but Sarada still does not look like either her parents. She still looks like a splitting image of Karin with black hair.

It’s just a bad design choice. Sure it’s humbling that the Sasuke Uchiha didn’t just have a daughter, but a daughter who’s a goody two-shoes tomboy nerd. Not tomboyish like Sakura but in a way where if teenage Sasuke met Sarada, he would think she’s lame/uninteresting.

I don’t know why but I always pegged Sasuke as someone who preferred having a son over a daughter. He’s just not a girl dad you know?

Kinda like how Itachi wanted a younger brother than sister. Women and female beings just aren’t important to Sasuke. Sasuke isn’t going to entertain playing dolls or decorating a room with pink and glitter. He’s a tough parent who is just too masculine for girly daughter father things. That’s probably why he’s just not included in her life outside of battle. Another reason why he struggled to connect with her outside of not being in her life.

I really really really want a 90s/2000s coming of age show like Boy Meets World or Malcolm in the Middle but canonically gay. Like I’m talking 90s cameras, graphics, sound equipment for the full effect. I’m talking full-on sexuality crisis for the main character in the same episode style as all the others, where there is a clear setup and story line and it becomes more of a background thing later on and just becomes so normal for the story and the characters that it’s like it was always there, but can be brought back into the forefront for other episode arcs. And then of course you can put in a romance arc… ;)
