That's a highly difficult name to market though, given all the properties and other things that use that term. A lot of people would buy it expecting Makoto to break into this.

Maybe, the only noteworthy game to use the word is the 50 Cent one, and you'd have the benefit of it being two separate words instead. At the very least I think it makes a better subtitle for the first game than "Trigger Happy Havoc".

I'll never understand why they didn't just call it "Danganronpa: Academy of Hope, Students of Despair", like both fan translations did (sorta), that being a nice, evocative and reasonably succinct though not snappy subtitle, with the added benefit of actually being a good literal translation of the actual Japanese title of the game.

Someone came up with "Bullet Rebuttal" during the first thread, which I like a lot.

"Ultimate Affluent Protagonist" As amusing as that would be, I think Hajime has the prior claim on at least one part of that title. Seems like there won't be a lot of pointy things around once Byakuya has his way. Did anyone search him, though?
