Continuing the topic of siblings I wouldn't be suprised if some(if not all) of these simbling characters turn out to be evil and the evil elemetary students are just a red herring for the villains of the game. Well they might not be evil but just the fact that all of these "relatives of DR1 characters" are being revealed like this makes me think they aren't what they appear to be.

I wonder how they will handle Monokuma in this game since Nobuyo Ōyama, his VA, has dementia...I don't think they they change his VA because from what I known it's very rare to do that in Japan. And Monokuma is the mascot of Dangan Ronpa so I don't think they will not use him in this game either so I wonder how they will work with that. Anyway, I can't wait for this, I'm really looking forward how they continue from the end of DR2 and use stuff from DRAE's ending. I have many theories but I will save that for another day.

I hope that really short character in DRV3 character silhouette is just a really small Togami. We need one in every single main game.

Here's the new trailer for the anime It's has a recap of DR1 and DR2(so heavy spoilers there) but also, like oren said, that the new anime will have two arcs and it shows the DR2 prequel designs.
|
|
|
|
And other big problem was they trying to put the whole game in 12 episodes and that led to skipping stuff or having awful pacing. Since this a original story it won't have that problem, even if it might have like 12 episodes for each arc.

Tir McDohl posted:What important things happen in Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls? If you are talking about things that might be important in the new anime we still don't know but important things that I think might come up (DR: AE ending spoilers here) first is that in the ending of the game it's revealed that Kamukura has two AI Junkos, we know one was used in DR2 so one is still out there and since this anime has a new killing game with Monokuma that might be involved. Another thing is that at the end of the game Nagito decides to save Monaca(the villain of the game) and decides to make her the second Junko, one even better than the original, so that may also come up in the anime One small thing is also the fact that Togami and Toko aren't in the anime and AE sorta explains that in the fact that Toko is with Neagi's sister in Towa City and Togami went to get then probably since he said he would do that at the end of AE when he dealt with the whole Ultimate Despair thing, something that he did in the ending of DR2

There's no way that Hope robot, detective boy and ??? person there, all three will get pass chapter 1, one or two of then will die. Especially Hope robot, he scream first victim as much as fat Togami did in the second game.
|
|
|
|
If there's a murder that involves heavily a talent is normally the first one. But I wouldn't be suprised if ??? guy is a murderer this time and figuring it out will be based on knowing his talent.

CandyCrazy posted:The DR subreddit pointed out that apparently the kanji in the detective's surname (Saihara) can individually be translated as Makoto Hajime, which is interesting. It's impressive how, with the robot almost literally called Hope, and this now they can make 2 characters have so many death flags and the game isn't even out.
|
|
|
|
I don't know if it will be crimes exactly with some people, like if this is connected in some way with the Hope's Peak stuff the new school might be for people that did not only minor crimes, or major crimes but also that have the potential to do bad stuff in the future due to their personalities so they created that school so to help people that have the potential of using their talents for bad stuff so another JUnko doesn't happen.
|
|
|
|
For me it's the name of the school yeah, also I'm pretty sure I remember in the first images of the game, while the windows weren't blocked per se they still had iron bars like a prison so I guess it came from that? Or could be all wrong yeah I guess but it would be cool.

orenronen posted:There's some confirmation now about the school's nature - the game's official site has a list of preorder bonuses from various Japanese retailers, and the one for Yamada Denki is a Saishuu Gakuin memo pad that has the subheading "Academy for Gifted Prisoners" (in English) under the school's emblem and name. I guess this confirms it then that the school is a place for people that did some kind of illegal stuff and then they want to educate then so they can grow up to be regular people who follow the law. I wonder now what each character did, I guess some characters will have small stuff like stealing while others will get heavy stuff. I wouldn't suprised that one of the motives Monokuma will give is that one of the characters is a murderer.

Remember how in Japan DR1 and 2 where remade to the Vita together in one package? But in english we only got then separate? Well looks like we english speaking folks are going to get that finally but on the PS4! And it also has a lemited edition that includes: - Danganronpa 1•2 Reload for PS4™ - Full-color, 40-page Hardcover Art Book - 2-Disc Soundtrack (Disc 1 - 16 Tracks, Disc 2 - 11 Tracks) - Monokuma Sunglasses - Monokuma Coin - "Sorry I was born stupid" Sticker - Collector's Box Really thinking of getting this just to help getting V3 in english faster because this totally is preparation by NISA's part to get more people interested in the series for DRV3 on the PS4 and I want to help.

I feel most of you are basing your views and opinions on things you haven't even played or understand on some points, like I get the whole execution thing for some people sure but all the rest just makes it like you read summaries on 4chan or reddit and started to make your own opinions based on it. Like the whole thing about the cast being unlikable(besides a few choices and one of then is one of the best characters) I just can't see where some people might even think that and the whole (chapter 3 spoilers) incest thing it's not like it's played for laughs(well besides the execution but you know how those are), it's played as a totally hosed up thing thing and the characters are totally grossed with it and it's the only character that isn't played as a sad moment before and after his execution(well characters are still sad but in a way of "how could you kill two people for something like that") and also it makes sense for his character because he does his crime because of a folklorist thing a story if you kill 100 people you can revive someone so him killing for something stupid as that makes sense only for him and he before that was always a weird person and the game always needs a murderer that is just a horrible person like Celes in the first game or Mikan in the second(before we leaned the whole truth of that one at least)

Cuntellectual posted:I also feel that the endgame reveal that nobody's personality really counted was pretty dumb too. It was a worse copying of DR2's twist, in that at least their personalities were constructed from what they used to be like instead of fabricated whole cloth. About the end twist it seems to be very controversial yes with many people either hating or loving it, I for me loved every second of it, like I was facepalming in chapter 5 and parts of 6 because they were doing the whole DR1 thing again of the world went to poo poo and they took people from the new Hope's Peak and took then to space(there's even a memory of a grown up Naegi asking Suuichi if he agrees to the whole thing like the headmaster videos in DR1), together with the whole mention of Junko and Hope and Despair again I was ready to hate the last chapter because I felt this being anew series was one big lie after all but then it revealed that was the whole point, they brought that whole plot point because every Danganronpa game to that point did that and, in the universe of V3, all 52 games of DR until that point did that so it was both a great plot twist and meta twist in my oppinion. Also I don't see the whole problem of their personalities being fake, like people are acting like that means the whole thing was pointless but people still died and the characters character devolpment is all true and wasn't made by anyone, heck that is even one of the things mentioned in the end during the whole end game "we will beat this" speech.

Cuntellectual posted:The new characters I'll elaborate back on. I feel like they're a lot less sympathetic because of the fact they chose to be in their situation instead of being forced into it. The fact Kaede was my favorite character due to her being new and interesting while Shuichi was my least favorite soured me on it pretty hard too, needless to say. Since it's your opinion so we can agree to disagree on the rest but about the characters let me just say that (end game spoilers here again)that the people that agree to participate in the killing are totally different people who we meet in the game itself because Monokuma took their memories and created new characters with made-up backstories, personalities and talents, for example Kaito who is the biggest bro in the game joined the game because he wanted to kill people and get famous, similar thing with all the other characters. And in my oppinion Shuichi gets the best characters development of the main DR MCs but with the whole Kaede thing I can see why you wouldn't care for him, you have a point in that regard.

GenericMartini posted:I don't mind the characters being entirely fictional and were fabricated for the game. What i don't like is that EVERYTHING was fabricated. the romances, character motives, murders apparently, were also fabricated so the story would be exactly the way the producers would want. That's lovely and basically all the development that did happen, happened because the producer made it happen. Like the development mentioned, only happened because someone programmed it to happen. No they didn't, the whole message at the end is that the relationships and characters devolopment of all the characters were real and just because their past is fake, or rather a lie, doesn't make the present also a lie, that's the whole message, the only fake thing was the stuff before the killing game, so their personalities and past, that stuff was made up yes. The whole thing in the end is Suichi and all the other character giving a speech of their character devolpment and the relationships they made in the game to prove it wasn't all fake and made-up.

Cuntellectual posted:But they're basically told that everything including the killings was programmed in from the start. The only way things sort of went off the rails was Kaede dying when she did and Shuichi getting inspired to be less mopey. It was programmed in a way that some motives Monokuma gives are related to the motives some characters have that lead than to kill thanks to their fake past yes but it's not like they control who is gonna kill who. It especially obvious in chapter 5 where Ouma makes his plan of creating a murder not even Monokuma knows the answer. Same thing with the relationships of the characters too. In another topic I heard that in this game they had the help of the DR Kirigiri author who is a mistery book writer in making the murder puzzles and you can tell because all the murder plans in this game are really nice with their explation in those manga things in the end taking about 15 minutes to explain all the tricks.

Folt The Bolt posted:Having spoiled the story for myself because gently caress it, I've already taken the plunge, might as well go the rest of the way in: I actually like the Chapter 1 and Chapter 6 twists, that Kaede is a decoy and the entire cast is basically normal people with a death wish (well, except dictator kid and robot naegi) who then willingly got their personalities altered for the killing game so they could get famous (or in Ouma's case, possibly win money for charity). Yet, due to having their old personalities and memories completely overwritten, what some of them expected would be an easy win to fame and stardom (and if not, at least they'd die over the course of the game), ended up being a reality where they managed to genuinely find a second beginning, because their new personalities found the whole thing very real. And so they start going against who they initially were and the entire point of the show, and genuinely becomes the person they thought they were at the end of the story, and most important of all: They become someone who can live life and forge their own future. The Ouma thing is a fake spoiler people started to talk about as truth because people started saying that their game personalities are the oposite of their previous real ones and I'm pretty sure no where in the game mentions any of that, the only people we see how they where before is Kaede, Shuichi and Kaito. Yeah sure some peolple real personalities must be the oposite of the game ones because they agreed to join a game where they kill people but the Ouma being good thing is not true. Also the game sorta ends with the characters wondering if the "take part of the game of their own will" was true because there's no way 16 people would take part in this of their own will also because it's inconsistent with the beginning of the game where we see the characters without their talents talking about being kidnapped by someone. It's sorta of a sequel hook like in DR1 where we didn't know if the world out there was really all hosed up to people can take that as they wish. Like this game has tons of fake spoilers on the net because some people don't understand what is going on make their theories and other people start talking about then as if they where the real thing. Like in chapter 5 crime there's like a eletric bomb created by the Invetor lady Iruma that jams Monokuma's way of keeping track of the students and for some reason someone on 4chan said that it was a timebomb that reverses time by 50 seconds because they saw Ouma drink a antidote, using the bomb, and giving the antidote to Kaito to drink. The game mentions that Ouma drinking the antidote was a lie he pulled and he gives it for real tos Kaito after using the eletrict bomb but they thought he drank it for real and reversed time to take back that action and giving it to Kaito instead. It was so dumb but people believed it. It's kinda funny and meta because of the whole Truth vs Lie thing the game has going on.

Sea Sponge Run posted:So as I dangerously wade through this swathe of black, I gotta know: Anybody out there subbed any of the game yet? I'd rather not just blanket spoil all the twists. It's subs or waiting for me. I would be rather suprised if they did because we already have confirmation of a english release so unlike the last two games(especially DR2 who oren here and like two other translation things going on tumblr at the same time) we are 100% sure that we are getting this in english so my guess is that people won't bother. Like the only thing you can find right now is some FT event translations on tumblr and maybe in the future people will translate some special important scenes from the game but my best bet is that you will have to wait.

Cuntellectual posted:One thing I believe Shuichi points out near the end is that the fact they've proven there's mind wiping technology means that the whole 'Danganronpa was just a really outrageously popular series' thing could be completely made up and they have legitimately got no way of knowing what's true or not. Wasn't that just about the part where they joined the game out of their own will that he thought might be a lie? I cab't remember right now but yeah some people are thinking that part was a lie at least because the prologue of the game makes no sense if the part of then waiting to join the game is true because in there we see then without talents talking about being kidnapped and then they get talents and their memories removed again and it would make no sense for then to get memories removed twice, one of the audition videos of then wanting to join the game, and another time to forget they don't have talents also Kodaka made tweet that for people that completed the game to go back to the prologue and see what they think. But yeah it ends in DR1 way of maybe some things weren't true

Sea Sponge Run posted:I am curious about something after Chapter 1, though Chapter 1 spoilers Kaede has 2 free time events with each character and they are all different from Shuichi's who has the regular 5 events per character, with Kaede you have to keep repeating chapter 1 to see all of her events but with Shuichi you have the bonus mode after the game to complete all the ones you missed with him

Kodaka has said that he wrote Miu to be completly unlikeable. It worked for some people while for others it didn't. I find her hilarious personally.

I see people here don't see how awesome Kaito Momota is and that makes me full of despair.

Ending spoilers: I wonder how many people who started playing this game but not played 1 and 2 will feel when they reach chapter 5 and then with the final trial and will be all confused Like this game was advertised as a new beginning so I guess some people will play it as their first DR game and just picturing that is so funny

grand theft grotto posted:More ending spoilers: I replayed the first part of the prologue before the redo and something doesn't make sense. In the fake story, the characters lost their memories of their talents to avoid the ultimate hunt, but that's just part of the backstory. When they pop out of the lockers, they've been provided their characters, but not their talents. The backstory also states they remembered their talents and chose to join the Gofer Project, so by the time they're at Ultimate Academy story-wise they all should have their talents. So why were they ever able to pop out of the lockers without talents? In the gym Monophanie appears to have forgotten to do it, but it's kind of strange that they wouldn't bundle that as part of the whole identity. Something is just off about that story. Kaede and Shuichi also remember being kidnapped at this point, which isn't consistent with the idea that they submitted to the Gofer Project willingly, so where did that memory come from and why? Rantaro also says somethng like "Who's behind all this and why the ridiculous theatrics?" about the situation and that is weird when he should know he was gonna be in another killing game and who is behind it There are many theories and opinions on what is true or not true but many people think that at least the fact that the characters participated in the game of their own free will is a lie and the audition videos might have been faked

Enallyniv posted:Went to check a couple of sections again on Youtube and stumbled upon a game using the English dub. I don't mind it overall but man, Himiko's lazy voice reigns supreme in the JP dub. I think in the dub Himiko is actually pretty damm, good her "Nyeeeh" and "I'm a mage" voice clips always makes me laugh. Same with Miu every single line of hers is hilarious. "gently caress Y'ALL!!" Angie, Tenko, Ryoma, Kirumi, Korekiyo and Keebo are pretty good too I will say.

FPzero posted:Considering how audiovisual the trials are I couldn't imagine myself playing the game with Japanese voices. I need to be able to hear the words being spoken in debates, not just read the text. Even more so once the text starts spinning around and flying off screen. I never had any problems myself, only the rebuttal showdowns I had issues because you coudn't really read the text because in that mini-game yeah the text gets all a mess in later trials in DR2 and V3 and it damages you if you aren't quick to cut the words. Well I also played the games in english dub first so maybe I got used to all the flying text it when I replayed DR1 and 2 in japanese later and could read it easier.

Umineko is pretty good with a official steam release of the first 4 episodes. But since it doesn't really have gameplay you can check the lp of the first 4 episodes over on the lp archive and then the ongoing lp of the last 4 episodes over in the lp forum by ProfessorProf(it's on the final episode right now so you have plenty to catch up). It might not appear to be crazy at first but boy it does pick up in craziness.
