I like to imagine that Junko is trying her hardest to explain why them shutting down is a bad idea, while Hajime is just drowning her out by yelling Future a lot. Something like this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yk7IDVzLiQo Also, Sonia continues to be great.

Apologies for dragging out the Looping Debate as long as I did. I had a lot of trouble deciding how I wanted to best convey the end of Trial 6 in screenshot/update form because of how things fall apart and I settled on the idea of my narration and hints breaking down when the interface exploded in Part 12 and casting my "in-LP involvement" as the hint system for the game everyone is trapped in. Since the game was breaking, so was I. And that's how we ended up in the looping debate. By graying out my Narration icon and having it spit out nothing but "..........." with each line I hoped to convey the sense that something has gone horribly wrong with the game/LP and we needed a fix. But it's kind of hard to communicate that fact when I'd decided not to make any non-update posts in the thread after the interface exploded as part of the whole meta gimmick occurring! Thankfully Chiaki was there to get through to everyone in the end and some people in the thread picked up on it. actually I'm just gonna scapegoat Fedule because he told me to loop the debate one day longer than I'd planned. Yeah that'll work, blame him! Thanks for posting this, I actually never thought to check what Nihil's bullet says in any of the three or four times I recorded and re-recorded the end of this trial. Neat stuff. Tenebrais posted:
Ah well, if you can't have fun while making an LP, then why make one in the first place? Between looping the debate, changing my Narration icon to match the breakdown of reality in places, and figuring out how to convert an animation-heavy endgame into screenshot updates I had fun doing this whole ending sequence. And to think, I had ideas for it I ultimately scrapped, but I'll talk about them another time. One final update comes tomorrow. Then bonus content can begin at a later date.

To be honest, I spent some time getting mad at how conveniently this ending sidesteps the whole "horrible choice" thing that was so engaging, and how Chiaki and Usami just suddenly reappear when it's established they're super duper dead. That was until I noticed this, back in the Prologue chapter:FPzero posted:
That is to say, I'm like 95% certain this ending is Izuru double crossing Junko. Before he went under, he hacked the program and left a backdoor for himself, should Hajime notice it, that lets him totally screw over Junko and ruin her entire plan in front of her face, presumably to spite her for getting him involved in the Tragedy of Hope's Peak. Well, that's really the only way I can make sense of the ending, so...

: But...what are you planning to do? Now that you've ended up like this, there's nothing you can do, right?
: Listen well: using people is a talent, too. It is now my turn to use that person just as they used me in the past.

Soooo does this mean the person who bet that everyone would survive in the dead pool was closest to being right?

Super High School Level Programmer already existed by Chihiro. If that was included in the Izuru Kamukura package, it is perfectly plausible he did some backdoor installs on the fly while Despairs were directly plugged in and had their memories reset.

That's a fair guess. Izuru seems to have been the one to bring Junko into the simulation, so he might well have been trying to set up this whole scenario in the first place. Certainly if he could bring Junko back, he could keep the other virtual characters alive. Maybe the whole stunt was his means of reviving Hajime, for whatever purpose he might have had.

Yeah, every chapter ends with a present related to who the killer was, and in this case, it was Junko's phone. I'll show it in an extra update, but I didn't feel like it was tonally right to have it there for the screenshots (should've cut it out for the video too but I forgot.) As for the update itself, I know it was really heavy on screenshots, but screenshots have impact, and this is the end of the game! May as well show off all the impact I can.

Pretty sure it’s this as well, Izuru finds life boring. He has every talent possible, he can do anything at all, and so life has no meaning for him. I guess he’s decided to try and become Hajime again, maybe with the talents left and maybe not. Basically I suspect being Izuru Kamakura sucks and he decides to be someone else in the most ridiculous over the top way possible, whilst insuring the person he becomes remains confident and competent.

Click here to watch the Epilogue!  And so...the incident is coming to an end. The incident riddled with absurdity, with nonsense, with sheer irrationality...is about to lower its curtain. An incident smaller than Hope's Peak Academy's biggest, most tragic event... Smaller than the biggest, most awful, most tragic event in human history... An incident so small it doesn't even have a name. The world will never know what happened here... Not now, not in the distant future. ...As long as they remain here.    : Apparently they've finished the preparations... We can leave anytime. : Then...I guess we should get going. : ...: Hey Makoto...is this really okay? You're the one who said, "Leave the questions to me," so I let you take the lead... Are they really going to be okay? Didn't they just turn back into Ultimate Despair?: I don't think...that's the case. I mean...if they did turn back, they wouldn't have said that they'd stay on this island.: Perhaps they're thinking about helping their sleeping friends?: I can't really say for sure...but that's what I believe.: Whether they know it or not, the fact that they're already clinging to that feeling shows that they're no longer who they were in the past.: It seems that there are too many soft-hearted people here...: But in reality...the possibility of those who are asleep waking up is close to zero.  : No, the possibility isn't a problem. Even if there's the smallest possibility... They're still trying to create that future for themselves... In their eyes, that is the future. : The smallest possibility... You might as well call it a miracle.: But strangely enough...I have a feeling that they'll be able to reach it. They've accepted their hopes and their despair, and they're trying to create their own future... Maybe, for people like that, miracles are inevitable, don't you think?: Hmph, as cheesy as ever... Seriously...you haven't grown up at all...: H-Haven't grown up...!? : That's the main reason...we decided to come with you.: Well, who cares...? I guess I'll respect your decision...this time. However, what comes next is going to be difficult for us.: Leaving them on this island... If the higher-ups at HQ find out about this, it will definitely cause a scene.: We need to work on concealing it.: ...That's not a problem.: And what do you intend to explain to HQ?: U-Um... About that...I was gonna think about it while I was on the ship...: ...Good luck. I'm not going to help you that much.: Huh!? Wh-Why!?: You should at least be glad that we decided to respect your decision.: F-Fine...  : Then let's go back as well. We're not even close to finished yet...there's still a lot we must do. Besides the Future Foundation, the biggest, most awful, most tragic even in human history is not finished... We must end this once and for all, for the sake of the future. : It seems...I must fight alongside you all for a little while longer...: Plus, there's someone waiting for you to return.: ...Don't make me remember something so horrifying. : Then let's go... We...must create our own futures, too.♪ No Music. ♪ And so...the ordeal has ended. And from here, our daily lives have started. Lives that are much more absurd, nonsensical, and irrational than before... Things are...probably going to be a lot more difficult now. There's no such thing as an answered mystery... It's doubtful whether or not things will even end well.  The future isn't a path, it's like an endless sea... You can try to go anywhere...but it doesn't mean you'll get there.  Even so, I will keep on living. I will keep on living as Hajime Hinata.   : My future...lies here.  Click here to watch the Credits!  : We've reached the end of the main game! Thank you so much for following along with the LP! I love this game a lot and I'm glad I was able to show it off to everyone.: But we're far from over. I still have to do the leftover Free Time Events, as well show off the other Bonus Modes. Stay tuned and stick around for all the additional content I've yet to cover!

Dead Pool Results! So someone in here asked about the Dead Pool in light of the end of the trial, and whether or not it meant that everyone was actually alive. I'm not going to pull any tricks on people like that. As far as we know from what the game has told/shown us, the people that died in the Neo World Program are "dead". So for our purposes, their deaths in the game are what counts for the Dead Pool. Therefore, the survivors are Hajime, Akane, Kazuichi, Sonia and Fuyuhiko. Monokuma's column doesn't really count since he wasn't a student, and I obviously wasn't going to include a Junko, Makoto, Kyoko or Real Byakuya column. With that said: The winner of the No-Spoilers Dead Pool is Serefin99! The winner of the Spoilers Dead Pool is SMaster777! I'll be in touch with your avatar gift certificates at some point soon. Feel free to PM me about it or tell me another way I can deliver you the cert if you don't have DMs, such as on Discord.

Just as a reminder, DRV3 isn't the sequel/ending to this. DR3, the double anime series and the ending special, Super Danganronpa 2.5, are. Though also as a reminder, they exist purely to crush your affection into tiny pieces and hurt you for the majority of their runs, so maybe don't rush to watch them for closure.

I actually kinda liked Despair Girls. I mean, it also existed to hurt you for the majority of its time, and it was nearly entirely ancillary, but I love Toko/Sayo, and she really shines in that game. The game play was boring at best and the game was really, really uncomfortable in large quantities, but I dunno, I feel like the relationship between Komaru and Toko was fun. DR3... not so much. I guess it has pay off, but good poo poo. Half of that series is just hard to watch emotionally, and half of it is just hard to watch because it's entirely pointless edginess.

I feel like you can get all the good parts of Despair Girls by just watching youtube videos of the Toko/Sayo interaction scenes. Everything else ranges from mediocre to  .
