An 18+ Danganronpa Fandom Server!

We've noticed around that there was a distinct lack of general servers for the Danganronpa fandom that suited our personal preferences, so we made one! This server is intended to foster and facilitate community within the fandom across the entire series. If you like to talk Danganronpa in any sense of the franchise, this server is for you!

Notable spaces we have include:

Three general discussion channels

Specific channels for fan content, including fanart, fanfiction, and meta

More to come, with a suggestion box for spaces to be added in the future as the server grows!

Other important features:

Fictionfolk and fictive friendly, with Tupperbox and Pluralkit available for system members

Doubles friendly, with no doubles list

No blacklist, with a general stamp of 18+ to allow for darker topics

An Important Note: While this server is for the most part open to anyone, more than anything we want to facilitate a welcoming space for people to feel open talking about the things they're interested in, regardless of the nature of the topic. We're anti-harassment here in every sense of the word, and so to maintain that, we ask people to submit the following Google Form to agree to our guidelines in order to receive an invite link. No exceptions.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Hello oh my god could we PLEASE get more kokichi and maki sibling content when you're up for it - I really thought I was alone on this train

Im way ahead of you pal..

Kaito and kork became roommates bc kaito was talking about how he needed help with the rent on the funeral, korekiyo overheard him so he decided that itd be an amazing experience to share a room with a stranger and kaito didnt even question him once before accepting him into his apt so now he has a roommate who scares him shitless with his spiritual stuff and theyre searching for an apartment with kokichi to move in together bc kokichi and maki are also sick of eachother

[sw33tl1es]

do you headcanon any DR characters as using they/them or neopronouns? 🤔

(daily-ish PRIDE question #11)

Feeling extremely sad for Kaito hours

Just the amount of pain he was in both physically and mentally, having to deal with that on your own but always putting a big smile on your face </3 even at the time of his death he wanted to reassure everyone </33

I know it's a situation that he pretty much created. But I dunno, I guess I relate to an extent to the feeling that you need to deal with everything yourself and that you can't burden others (even though for him is also his stupid pride getting in the way) so to think about him suffering so much; pretty much doomed to die it just breaks my heart a little

[sw33tl1es]

the big appeal of oumota to me is like.

kokichi doesnt view kaito as that idealized version of himself that he projects onto the world, that persona maki and shuichi are so taken by (despite their annoyances at times)

and the idea that once kaito sees kokichi unmasked, true and honest and vulnerable, he stops viewing kokichi as the villain kokichi presents himself to be, and both of them are just so drawn towards that brutal honesty that the other so vehemently denies because its weakness

and neither of them can lie. because they KNOW the other knows its bullshit. but they do anyway. in that feeble attempt to pull up another wall. and. and. and

GOD

Oumota Post [Contains Spoilers]

---------------------------------------------------------------

Something I don’t hear talked about enough in relation to Oumota (or just Kokichi and Kaito in general) is the SHEER NUMBER of parallels that they have with eachother, beyond just their narrative roles. Their philosophies of Faith VS Logic and their respective Hero/Villain personas are undoubtably the most interesting part of it, but there’s so much more to be said than just that. Even their physical appearances are designed to contrast, so here’s a shitty list of some of the similarities and parallels I found between them.

-------

•Kaito is tall with broad shoulders, while Kokichi is short with a small frame.

•Their hair colours are almost exact opposites on the colour wheel. On top of this, while you don’t really see it due to their respective hairstyles, they both have roughly shoulder-length hair.

•Tying into the previous point, they have very similar colour schemes. They both wear white shirts, and have red, yellow, grey, and white accents scattered around their outfits. They’re also both heavily associated with the colour purple, with Kaito being more aligned with magenta (pink) and Kokichi being more aligned with indigo (blue).

•Kokichi is especially pale compared to the rest of the cast, while Kaito is noticeably tan.

•Kaito’s eyes are upturned, and Kokichi’s are downturned. I’m not sure how to word it but it’s almost like their eyebrows are going in different directions, too.

•They both wear capes that fan out in their splash arts. Kaito’s is a coat, but it has the same effect.

•They’re both bilingual. Kaito can speak English, Japanese, and Russian thanks to his astronaut training, and while it’s unclear why Kokichi can speak multiple languages, we know that he can thanks to his second FTE with Kaede, wherein he says ‘common sense’ in English, Japanese, French, and Spanish. ‘Common sense’ isn’t a commonplace word that new speakers of a language would know, implying some level of fluency.

•In the original Japanese script, Kaito had quite a few homophobic, misogynistic, and transphobic undertones, all seemingly stemming from internalized toxic masculinity. Kokichi was very much the opposite of this (read: not straight), as is discussed in-depth in the trivia section of his Wiki page. [We do not talk about Japanese Kaito in this household].

•Kokichi’s birthday is the 21st, an inversion of Kaito’s birthday, which is the 12th.

•Neither of them portray themselves 100% authentically. Depending on how you read their characters, you could almost argue that deep down, they’re more similar to the other’s persona than they are to their own.

↓

Though he’s often referred to as an idiot due to his stubbornness in the trials, Kaito is actually rather analytical when he so chooses to be, seeing straight through Maki’s lone-wolf act and understanding her needs startlingly fast. He was intelligent enough to pass his astronaut entrance exam (which would’ve involved extremely complicated scientific concepts and a basic understanding of medicine) and has proved himself willing to cheat and lie to get what he wants (i.e, forging an I.D to get early acceptance).

This isn’t the only instance of him lying when it wasn’t strictly necessary, another notable example being the entirety of his Free Time Events; he lies about his impossible summer escapades and brags about how many famous people achieved success because of his influence, seemingly just to boost his own ego and to make himself look more impressive to Saihara. Shuichi internally calls him out for this, more or less verifying that it was all a lie.

He repeatedly lies in the trials (like when he tried to insist that he was the one in women’s underwear in chapter 2), and of course, hid his illness from the others by pretending he was fine, when in actuality, he was on death’s door.

None of this makes Kaito’s passion and kindness any less real, but it’s important to note how he’s not as saintly as he seems. He’s a lot of things, but he’s also an Egotistical Liar, much like Kokichi promotes himself to be.

Moving on to Kokichi, while it’s hard to say with 100% certainty what kind of person he is, we’ve seen him become emotional a number of times throughout the game, most notably in Gonta’s trial. There’s a lot of debate over whether his tears were genuine or not, but the general consensus is that they were. He shows anger here, at both Gonta, the situation, and more likely than not, himself. He clearly feels a lot of shame and grief, but ultimately continues to push on with his plan for everyone else’s sake.

He shows mercy to Yumeno in chapter 3, when he asks her what she was holding back at the end of the trial. This is seemingly done in an attempt to help get her in touch with her feelings, with no obvious ulterior motives or mocking undertones. Him calling her out earlier in the trial can be chocked up to his hatred of hypocrites – as is seen with his overall relationship with the rest of the cast, specifically surrounding how they gang up on him and treat him like a monster for lying when it’s something that they themselves do – but this interaction shows that he sympathises with her, proving that he has some level of empathy.

Kokichi is EXTREMELY selfless, something that’s proven over and over again to the point that if I sat here and tried to list every example, we’d be here until the release of the V3 anime [forever]. He actively plays devil's advocate, knowing that this would lead to the rest of the group disliking him, and his entire plan to end the killing game centred around villainizing himself, all so that he could die to save the rest of the cast. He’s shown to have spent time, likely days upon days, thinking about how to end the killing game – if his room is any indication, he’s poured a lot of toil into making that a reality. Much like with Kaito, none of this changes how Kokichi chose to act – he’s still a bad person who did inexcusable things, but there’s some merit to the fact that beneath all of that, he’s a human being.

 In the end, he dies as a Selfless Hero, trying to save a group who he surely must’ve known would feel no gratitude for his sacrifice. He's the exact kind of person that Kaito would approve of, were it not for the other, less pleasant aspects of his personality.

Again this is all just my interrpretation and what do I know but I thought it was interesting so here :3

Here's the scenes I drew from Planetarium!

^ The fanfic in question.

[sw33tl1es]

I'm sorry, I know his design is controversial but it's just soo interesting to me

The checkered handkerchief makes me think of chess, plus his design being mostly white, like white chess piece! Maybe a King or a Knight

Shuichi being mostly black is also interesting, visually it makes us immediately clock them as the Antag/Protag duo, two chess pieces on different sides of the board (which is a LIE Because Kokichi ultimately wants the same As everybody else does)

White also being the color we mostly associate with good,pureness (*doesnt mean white=good just what we usually associate it as)while he's supposed to look like a stereotypical villain, almost like his true intentions are hiding in plain sight but we (as the audience) get swayed by his lies

Only colors he has are his buttons which represent D.I.C.E and his purple accents, purple is the colors that the game mostly associate with deceit so of course Mr.liar himself would have it
