I never understood why they even gave Mondo the whole big brother back story, he didn't need it. A much easier ending would be to say that Mondo was overcome when Chihiro revealed hImself and wanted to protect him from Monobear revealing his secret, so he killed him. That would make sense to a stressed out teenager in the middle of Japan's answer to the hunger games. I might actually say the fry pot death was the most gruesome, just because I don't think I cold ever stand being fried alive. (Not that I'd actually want to be pelted with baseballs or anything.)

This is something that I keep wondering: when I was in high school, I was totally a Super High School Level bass player, but even my dumb 14 year old rear end knew I didn't have poo poo on a pro. Some of the specialties like 'mechanic' make sense, they're technical and based on knowledge, but 'dancer' or 'cook' take years and years to get right.

It's possible Monobear just said "gently caress it" and gave them Polybius.  Another thought I had, that little bunny tamagotchi minigame? It would be hilarious if that somehow determined the ending we got, like letting the little guy die gave you the bad end or something. Bean fucked around with this message at 15:58 on Jun 3, 2013 |

CandyCrazy posted:I have to wonder if Nagito stealing the vote again is just people realizing he'll be unavailable or if people are actually voting for him without reading. I voted that way. Okay, I can't remember the names, so I go back to the first post a lot to make sure I don't gently caress up, and this time I noticed something: Fatagami doesn't have fat hands. His wrists are normal sized, too. Yamada had fat hands, so it's not like this artist isn't familiar with the concept. It's probably an art mistake, but is it possible Togami was just in some kind of fat suit? Maybe so Monobear didn't recognize him?

I'm almost ready to say that this is the first trial they mess up (let's pretend that Akane did it because she's covered in blood and can get out the window with Nidai's help) and the rest of the game is them running from Monobear. That would be a hell of a twist, anyway.

We know that Peko can bullshit, she may be bullshitting about this tool stuff. She might have just seen a way to get Kuzuuryu off the island and took it, hoping Monobear would take the bait and graduate him. Kuzu may be thinking the same way, since he tried to stick up for her during the trial. This all depends on either them being friends or having anime feelings for each other, though. I still don't think that he explicitly ordered the hit, I think she just took initiative. Another idea might be that she killed gangster's sister and feels so bad that she figured she'd try this tool bullshit to graduate him. Since she'd die either way, she wouldn't have to deal with the guilt any longer.

Monobear saying that Nagito made him think of "him" probably means Naegi, which then probably means that this isn't a prequel. I'd love to see Monomi become less useless as the story went on. It would be crazy if someone from DR1 was controlling her. I guess personality wise she's like Aoi, but it would be just like Togami or Syo to fake a personality like that. (It would be fun if it were Naegi, but I don't think he has the stones.)

What about the timeline? I feel like we can definitively say that DR2 happens sometime after DR1, but is it like fifteen minutes or fifty years after? Another possibility is that they're occurring concurrently, and Naegi et all will pop out of the ruins after defeating their Monobear. Where did Monobear get the Monobeasts? Do they figure into the plot? And, most pressing: the hell with that virtual bunny game? I'm waiting for that to tie into the final solution or something crazy.

zetsubous posted:Can you clarify why (assuming Togami is not the same Togami) this couldn't be happening before DR1? I don't think I've seen anything yet that absolutely proves that. In the last update, Monobear says Nagito reminds him of Naegi, so they've already met each other. (Likely Monobear's already heard him say a bunch of stuff about hope over dispair too.)

Endorph posted:That still doesn't discredit the 'what, again' when Pekoyama tries to play serial killer. Those are his exact words. That's one possibility I was entertaining: it's possible that DR1 just ended, like, five minutes after DR1's second trial or something, and DR2 isn't going on totally concurrently, but just askew. I have no idea how that makes Togami factor in, though. The simplest might be to just say that DR1's already ended, in that case.

Would it be possible that Tsumiki caught despair fever, which then motivated her to kill Komada and sleep on(/"with") Hinata? Turning her into a killer and an, uh, attention seeker would be out of character for her. Maybe Komada was even whispering that he was almost a victim. Of course, despair fever seems to drastically change people, so maybe it would be more obvious if she was sick.

It's possible the kid making the money comment is just being a poo poo. Hinata could be a Super High School Level Deity and there would be someone in the world who would still call Hope's Peak a waste. Still betting Tsumiki is our despair-infected murderer.

I thought DR0 implied that Hope's Peak was a facility where they studied talent. If that's true, it's to the scientist's advantage to find the best, regardless of background or ability to pay. To their eyes, it's just as advantageous to study Togami, who's the best at having mad cashmoneyrecords, as it is to study Owari, even if they had to pluck her out of a trailer park. In pure terms of the study, privilege shouldn't be a consideration. I have no idea how SHSL luck plays into that one, though. What would be interesting in DR3 is to see an obviously poor as poo poo kid in the Hope's Peak class.

Re the pupils: obviously it's a sign that everyone is everyone else's twin. Another thing about Saionji: did she learn to tie her obi? Did Koizumi teach her how to tie it, or did she ever get the chance, or did it sink in? Because if she's running around next update without her kimono, we'll know who was in the robe.

I think the pillar thing is just bad art, not anything important. (Saijioni also looks taller to me in the video, GASP IS SHE REALLY SOMEONE'S OLSEN TWIN?) But, it's possible the bigger pillar was really a curtain (or wallpaper?) set up around Saijioni. The curtain would give the killer enough space to hide a body. Hinata wouldn't have noticed the curtain looking odd because he was too busy with the dead body in the room. Hell, it would grab my attention. All the killer had to do was wait for Hinata to leave, drop the curtain, maybe ditch it somehow, and then lock the doors. Of course, I have no idea why they'd do that. There's a lot of why in this case. (Hey orenronen, thanks for two updates this week!)

Wait, do we know the Monomi bags are unique? I thought Monobear was only talking about the bear versions. I don't even think he'd stoop so low as to make other tote bags. Another cast member could have bought a bag before Hinata saw it, but that still doesn't prove that the Monomi bag is unique.

I have a question about the game: do they have to prove the how or just the who? Like, if they get to the trial room, Hinata's just like, "gently caress it, Sonia did it," and everyone agrees and Sonia confesses, does Monobear take that?

I was at DragonCon, and saw someone dressed as Aoi. I told her I liked her costume, and that I was on chapter 2 of DR2. She literally replied with, "Oh, right, where Peko is the killer!" What I'm saying is, the only way to remain unspoiled is to live in an underground bunker with no Internet access.

Maybe Saijoni planned to kill Ibuki first and succeeded. (Maybe she wanted to get rid of the sick?) She's the one who set up the video and everything. Maybe Mikan walked in on it and flipped out, then killed Saijioni so that no one knew she didn't protect a patient? The only thing that doesn't jive is that Mikan should know better than to string a body up. Saijioni might have done it out of theatrics, but I think Mikan would know to ditch a body in the ocean.

TKMobile posted:If Saionji was in fact Ibuki's killer, then it's consistent, albeit kind of horrible for her character development. Her only friend gets killed on the arguably accidental order of the yakuza kid, everyone gives him some level of sympathy thereafter and at best pity Saionji herself (and/or don't appreciate her attempt to honor Koizumi's memory) so from there she gets it into her head that it's everyone for themselves on the island. Trust no one. She says as much. And with the virus going around, it's moreso apparent to someone in her state of mine that the only way out is to kill somebody. This would account for how she got out of the motel--of her own volition. You know what I realized fits nicely with this? Saionji's dress. Saionji dressed in the hospital robe, filmed the video, did the deed. Mikan walks in on the just-completed murder, flips, slits Saionji's throat, flips again, and dresses her hastily, tying the obi wrong. It's even possible that Saionji killed Ibuki, then hid when Hinata discovered the body. When Hinata ran out, Mikan may have run in and killed Saionji (maybe in a struggle, maybe in some sort of rage out over YOU KILLED MY PATIENT)

Maybe the killer killed Saionji just as Ibuki walked in, and the killer didn't think they could keep Ibuki quiet. (All Hinata would have to do during the trial would be to order her to say who the killer was.) Thus, they killed Ibuki. Or they got Saijioni first and just felt real murdery, so they tried to clean the blood off the floor and hide Saijioni behind the column. When they lured Ibuki in, everything seemed less suspicious? That one's a reach, but I can't think of another explanation for the blood cleaning.

This has bugged me since DR1: how does Monobear think he's going to prevent more deaths? Would he kill the killer before they succeeded? Or does he just throw some giant cartoon "no one dies" switch, so Hinata could choke someone all he wanted but not kill them? (Something something VR theory.)

Honestly, I think the people who are going to buy it will buy it and the people who won't won't. I don't see Oren's translation having a negative impact on sales -- if anything he's probably going to sell more copies of the game. I know I'm going to grab a vita and copies of DR1 and DR2 when I can afford them because of this thread. I think if anyone's not going to buy a copy of the game, Oren stopping would just lead them to read another translation. I like reading DR along with other goons, though, so I'm biased.
