Robotfisherman posted:It might just be me, but Fuyuhiko vaguely reminds me of Francis York Morgan. I'm definitely with the "this is Togami's kid or something" train of thought. For one, I don't buy into the "weird computer simulation" theory, and for two our Togami would never let himself go like this.

I'm just waiting for Usami to straight up murder someone for some minor slight, perhaps littering, because "they were disturbing the lifestyle full of wuv and peace we were estabwishing on the island". This has to go horribly off the rails somehow.

I actually completely disagree. Fedule makes those little commentary additions when going through blind. I think it adds a little bit of a two-man back and forth video LP vibe to what is otherwise a pretty sparsely commented on screenshot LP (besides the trial segments). Which, when done right, is really good.

Despair is never as crushing unless there's a flicker of hope at the end of the tunnel that slowly gets suffocated. I can guarantee the hope shards mechanic is still in. I can also guarantee that if the kids were smart and decided to go that route, Monobear would keep inventing new, increasingly dire motives to deter them.

All 16 students are currently present at Monobear's grand entrance. The only way he is being controlled in the way he was the last game is if a currently unknown 17th person is doing it. Of course, there are many other potential explanations for Monobear's current status and many possibilities regarding a theoretical "mastermind" besides someone sitting in a high-tech control room personally controlling Monobear, but that particular option is probably out unless there's an unknown factor in all this.

RentCavalier posted:Based off the last game's stinger, I think Monobear could very well just be an A.I. now. The question then must be: Why does Monobear suddenly have an independent AI? He certainly didn't seem to have one before. Something changed. If this is really the case, I'm sure we'll end up with an explanation for why Monobear, who used to just basically be a puppet, may have become a autonomous being in his own right. And then we may very well have a mastermind of a different shade.

It is an accurate description of the character in question. It is a person named Togami. He has a self-admitted weight issue (though he claims it's actually the thin people who have the problem). He is Fat Togami.

Dias posted:Maybe it's just me not remembering the start of the first game very well, but wasn't Monobear way more...subtle about the whole "murder each other" thing? In DR1, he was a bit more coy, "you COULD stay here forever and live peaceful lives, y'know...", at least in the beginning. The overall feeling seemed to be "no one is really gonna have the guts, right?". This Monobear straight out goes for the jugular, "I just know you'll kill each other, better look over your shoulder, upupupupu".

Just wanna say, Sonia breaking character and going all D&D commentary out of nowhere is one of the best things. Everything that comes out of Coach's mouth is also one of the best things. This. At this juncture this is the best thing. This game, the whole series really, is just a long string of strangeness, punctuated by amazing things.

I just can't see Kuzuryuu being a girl, because much like how the first game was about screwing around with tropes it seems that a big part of this game is going to be playing with the expectations of people who played the original game. And anyone who played the original game is actively looking for the crossdresser twist, especially with such a big red flag like Kuzuryuu refusing to go swimming. I'm almost (though not quite) willing to toxx on it.

# ¿ Jan 30, 2013 06:48 |

It's my contention that Kuzuryuu is just a young male Yakuza who is at that unfortunate stage in his career where he isn't quite badass enough yet to just adopt "Babyface" as his nickname and straight up murder anyone who makes fun of him for it. So he's a little insecure about it.

There's this other thread I follow where we have a self-imposed rule where we aren't allowed to talk about a certain character unless content is posted about that character, so as to avoid having inane derails about that character all the time. I vote we make that a rule with Kuzuryuu, specifically only talk about Kuzuryuu and potential crossdressing if there is an interaction with Kuzuryuu which gives some sort of hint about the speculation. This should probably be a rule about character speculation in general for a game like this, really.

RiffRaff1138 posted:I'm seeing one really big flaw with this plan: Togami said all of that, openly, in the restaurant. Somewhere where Monobear would be able to hear it. And considering the entire class (save Kuzuryuu) was there, it seems really likely Monobear would have been monitoring the restaurant at the moment. He probably knows all about this Avoid Monobear Party, and now has a few hours to set up a camera in the lodge beforehand, or something.

zetsubous posted:How did you come to that conclusion? I'm not following. I suspect the cracks in the floor are big enough for someone under them to discern some things above them. The person below the floorboards would have at least seen Togami's white suit, I think.

So here's the thing. There are two ways I think the events of the blackout could have played out, if indeed Togami was killed via someone skewering him from beneath the floorboards. The person who caused the blackout almost definitely could not have been the same person who was under the floorboards. I just can't see there being enough time for the killer to black things out, get under the lounge, get in position, and kill Togami, all in a matter of seconds. My theory is that someone was, for whatever reason, already under the floorboards when the blackout began for whatever reason, if indeed this is how Togami died. So who was it that caused the blackout? Two scenarios come to mind. One is a third person, tangentially unrelated to the case. They may have had some intent with this action, but ultimately this third person was neither murdered nor a murderer, and is thus ultimately unrelated to the case because no matter what they did according to Monobear's rules there is no such thing as an accessory to a crime, only the person who commits it. One is Togami himself. It is possible Togami intended to use the blackout for some purpose of his own, but it went wrong. Anyway that's my takeaway.

orenronen posted:Mysteries in general come in groups of seven, and in Japan it's very popular for high schools to have a set of seven urban legends passed around among students. The prototypical ones are things like a disappearing classroom, the sound of a piano playing at night when no one is in the music room, or the voice of a girl crying in the toilet when there's no one there. There's a ton of popular culture, ranging from horror flicks to video games, revolving around this.

Oh man the trials in this game are so much freaking better than the first one. I mean just look at this, this is a thousand times better than machine gun argument. Any flubs of the main story are forgiven because of the improved trial mechanics.

I'd quite like it if Hinata ends up getting proven wrong in one of these counter-arguments. Just make it an unwinnable boss fight, with the other guy flinging arguments at you left and right too fast to slash them all until you lose, but instead of losing the trial it just cuts back immediately to that person elaborating their position, Hinata at the health level he was at before that section, and Hinata just goes "yeah, you have a pretty good point there". And then a new evidence bullet is added and everyone moves on.

A few hundred new posts? Looks like I have a new update to look forward to--- ... Well that was a thing. I was going to just, you know, back slowly out of the thread, but it seems things are back under control for now. I have the weirdest feeling that two people are involved in this murder. One person lured Togami under the table, and one person actually murdered him from under the floorboards.

I kind of think that Nagito would be more interesting acting as an un-Naegi, actively trying to foul up cases and trials without necessarily being directly responsible for them, then just being the one off tutorial case villain. Basically I want Nagito to be the Red Herring of Super Dangan Ronpa 2.
