I never understood the Japanese gang member "hair, please make your way to the front" pompadour hairstyle. Could we get an explanation on that?

I'm curious to see if you have an alternate way to show your own comments now that your avatar is actually an in-game character...

At the risk of sounding overly pessimistic and being "that guy"...this is looking a lot like a Battle Royale rip off...

EDIT: I'm sure there's a lot more to it than that though.

So this is some bizarro Phoenix Wright where you have to prove that out of multiple people claiming to have committed a murder so they can escape, only one is telling the truth?

Reverse Phoenix Wright? That sounds incredible.

You know the best thing about LPing this game? Virtually no one outside Japan played it and there are no spoilers on Wikipedia. The speculation here is great. Just remember - you're still working with very little information at this point in the story.

I'm loving this too. It's nice to have people wink winking certain sections of the game and talking in depth about the story as a whole, but it can't compare to actual the story speculation that's happening here. It's a lot of fun.

You know, there's kind of a catch 22 on the being let out if no one knows you are the culprit. If you get out, then they know you are the culprit, thus you aren't qualified to leave.

Isn’t it ironic, dont’cha think? You getting the room with the bad door.
I mean, aren’t you supposed to have Super High-school Level Good Luck? It doesn’t fit at all!

So I guess this is how Naegi's luck works. It may seem like bad luck that he got the door with the stuck lock...but he essentially got a locked door like the girls since he is the only person who knows how to open it.

I've been thinking, I really like the fact that no one has died yet. It means that the characters are more realistic as a whole, not freaking out the second they are put into the situation and that those that are inclined to murder and are considering it are more intelligent and scheming than usual also.

I like my realistic characters in extremely unrealistic settings.

Lets try fraternizing with Oowada Mondo and Oogami Sakura. We are in a school, under threat of being murdered. Those two seem the most capable of self defense, so we might end up learning something about that.

Also voting for these two, just to see where their development goes.

Wow, I really wasn't expecting Maizono to die so soon. Kinda glad she did though, I didn't really like the direction she was bringing the game and her freak outs were getting a bit grating.

No ideas on who the murderer could be, but the fact that the bathroom door was opened is puzzling. One theory I have though is that perhaps it was opened by one of the taller students, someone who would naturally push the door open at the top. I think Sakura would be the tallest, but it really doesn't seem like she would be the culprit. It's hard to tell the heights of the other characters, but at least Leon, Oowada, Togami and Hagakure seem to be among the taller ones.

The post after the OP with all the character art has height, among other things, listed for all 15 characters. (Makoto is actually tied with Asahina for second-shortest. This amuses me for some reason.)

Well with that, the characters I mentioned are in fact the tallest.

I'm going to add Doujin guy to the tall culprits too, since he's...creepy.

I'm going to go ahead and call Maizono being a ghost assistant.

Or perhaps this game can go even more Pheonix Wright and have ??? be a super high school medium.

Just catching up with the thread now. Genocider Syo really is the best character.

The one thing I have to throw into the "Chihiro is a dude" debate (that hopefully hasn't already been said) is that calling her whatever her actual name is from the very beginning would be a very Monobear-ish thing to do.

Or maybe it will show up on her ID card when it is found.

Has Naegi even had any Super high school level good luck since his broken door in his room?

I may be getting mixed up with the chronology of events here, but when Mondo blew up at Naegi for suggesting he should spar with Sakura, was this before or after Chihiro was killed?

Either way, it's a pretty interesting character development. We're aware that he definitely saw Chihiro as a man afterwards, due to the change in his speech patterns, but could he possibly still harbour some extra guilt due to the fact that Chihiro himself possibly identified as a female?

And isn't it odd that having spent the whole game so far being really, really weird about sex, now Monobear's all about the peeking?

Just like ultragoon being against "3D", but wanting to peek now?

Togami has got the lowest BMI among the male cast (other than Fujisaki, but he doesn't count), so maybe we can expect some show of strength from him?

You should really expect the opposite from someone with such low BMI. Notice that Sakura has the second highest.

e: Wow this thread moves fast.

I never really liked Celes too much, but she's been quite interesting recently. Although chatting with her probably wouldn't reveal much knowing her character.
