It's Makoto Naegi!'s hair is wonderful and I love it. On a fanart note, a lurker friend of mine urged me to post this thing he made.

persistentminiboss posted:So how long do you guys think Togami's going to last, being a returning champion of sorts this time around? Think he can pull his weight enough to make it through two rounds of this? They're going to make this a running gag in the Dangan Ronpa series. Byakuya Togami is going to show up in every game and never die, ever. On that note, I bet he's going to show up in Zero, too. Just a hunch.

I am going to take Nagito completely as he says he is until further notice because he seems pretty alright. If a child of mine brought that guy home I'd be perfectly satisfied. Then again that's what people said about Ted Bundy, so

So, is that naming scheme, where it's a word with one capitalized letter at the end, just a Hamster Thing in Japan? Because this is the second time I've seen it in relation to hamsters.

Bifauxnen posted:I was thinking about this as well. I think it would still be a nice twist to bring in a hidden student in this game, since they're making it look like they're avoiding it this time by having 16 students right off the bat. And this time maybe we could actually interact with the 16th student instead of having them revealed as a dead body. Interact with the 16th student? Naegi gave her an OOPart.

This is entirely for meta reasons, but only working off the information presented in the updates.

Fighting-Fefnir posted:I think we talked about fujoshi in the DR1 thread some specifically because it's a distinctly Japanese thing with no real direct meanings in English. Basically, it's someone who becomes a hermit, rarely if ever leaving their room, as a response to the immense and pervasive societal pressures of succeeding that Japanese culture instills, if I recall. That's hikikomori, Kyle.

Hey, so I went and got the OST for this one too. Since this time around we aren't getting the trial songs at all because of those pesky videos (please don't stop doing the videos,) I figured I'd post them because if you're like me, you're gonna want these. Luckily, this time the OST was mostly in Japanese, so while on one hand I had to piece these titles together, on the other hand it's not gonna spoil me for the Chapter 5 executions or something. edit by slowbeef: Soundtrack's available on Amazon, so please don't share files. I understand it's confusing regarding video game soundtracks not available in US/Europe, so I'm just editing out the links. Somebody fucked around with this message at 15:17 on Mar 15, 2013 |

And here we see Nagito's fickle side. I can't wait for the at least three minutes of "Wait I take that evidence back!" when the culprit is unmasked. If it's not him, I mean. And I don't think it is. I might just be smitten, though. This guy's fantastic.

Yeah, this probably isn't a murder culprit choice. We just need to help Mr. Indecisive actually decide that "oh yeah, I could have followed the lamp cord! Thanks for clearing that up guys." before we actually crack down the law on the culprit.

Irony Be My Shield posted:His flip-flopping in attitude and tone kindof reminds me of Junko in the 6th trial of DR. I think it would make sense if Nagito is Naegi having undergone an Ishida style fusion with Junko (which would explain why he can induce both hope and despair in the other students so easily), but I don't have a huge amount of evidence to back that up at the moment. If this is true, I hope that a later case feature Nagito's logically extensive knowledge of women's fashion be pivotal to the case (in a non-crossdressing way I mean.) I hope it's not because Nagito as he is is my favorite character and having him just be The 13 Ghosts of Enoshima would cheapen his special brand of crazy for me a bit. Edit: You could say that this hope might cause me to despair later.

ApeHawk posted:Guys, it's the tutorial trial. I'm pretty sure that it's already been proven in the thread that it's a lot less likely for this to have physically been the case than for someone who may or may not be a chef (not saying names here) to have done it from under the floorboards somehow. This is actually more true in my mind because Nagito corroborated about Gundam's earring immediately pre-trial. Despite being a crazy guy, Nagito hasn't actually lied about any details of the crime so far that I can recall- just maybe about who he is. The fact that he felt the need to point it out to Hinata says to me that it (that is to say, Gundam managed to get under the floorboards) is actually something that he discovered at the same time as Hinata. That seems to me like Nagito didn't actually know about the mysterious way underneath the floorboards, which is probably where the skewer stabbed Togami from. I guess it'll have to wait until Gundam decides to enlighten the class on how he managed to get under there.

getitoffgetitoff posted:How can we vote him in if he's gonna be executed in the next update? Why would Monobear execute someone who hasn't killed anybody? Edit: I mean, certainly, this episode makes it incredibly likely that Nagito was planning something, but there's still a whole lot of evidence that points towards Hanamura having actually been the one to kill Togami for some reason or another. Moreso than, I think, Nagito's circumstantial being completely loopy does. Also if Nagito is the killer then Gundam's earring means absolutely nothing.

Phelddagrif posted:I know the Phoenix Wright games used every piece of evidence, but did DR1? I seem to recall there being some evidence in the last pair of cases that wasn't used, like the giant plant and the chickens, though I could be misremembering. Basically the only evidence that wasn't used in the last pair of DR1's cases was the headmaster's photo. The giant plant was used to dispose of the body and the chickens I believe were used as a blood substitution?

The twist there is that Nagito initiates the Hope Shard retrieval there by just standing at Hinata's cottage and staring at it with his crazy hopespair eyes all night. Hinata is mildly weirded out but it's a very strong bonding experience for the two of them. In the last event he knocks.

Nagito really doesn't look like he's 65kg. Like, that's not very heavy, but he looks about as strong as a twig. Nidai could probably punch him in half. Maybe about 10 or 15 of that is the hair.

ArcadeBumstead posted:I don't understand what this is supposed to imply. They used a stove so, uh, it's gotta be the food guy! Also he's short so he can get into the crawlspace even though we have no reason to believe anyone else couldn't fit down there. Also his motive is, uh, Nagito asked him to do it. What am I missing? I tried to re-read it and I'm seeing nothing pointing to Hanamura. Height is not an issue because Gundam got in there just fine, he just needed the Four Dark Gods of Destruction to find it for him. Hanamura, being the only one in the kitchen, was the one in the most prime position to actually be using the fire doors. He also happened to be out of sight of the rest of the gang, because he was in the kitchen. Hanamura speaks close to when the blackout ends in the blackout sequence, which makes sense when you consider that, under Hinata's scenario here, he'd need to spend some time getting to where he'd need to be to murder Togami. This also means that he'd not be there when Mikan tripped, like he'd sort of implied he was by speaking earlier. Being that this is Hanamura, the fact that he didn't say anything about that is kind of damning. We don't know his motive yet, but we don't really need to know the motive if the facts give all the evidence we need to convict him.
