knife my shining star, long time no see!!

can i order a number 2, number 8 with kaede, and a number 12 for the danganronpa ask game? ☆

Heslo Lune! Nice to talk to u again! Thanks so much for giving me an excuse to ramble <33

2. Favorite character from each game

DR1 - Taka for sure, though a lot of the first cast is pretty special to me. Taka as a character is heavily relatable to me (it’s the autism and over achiever attitude) and in general he’s the character that drew the most emotion out of me during the first game. Not a lot makes me cry but I definitely got emotional at his reaction to Mondo’s execution.

DR2 - Kazuichi, I hold my special version of him so dearly. I haven’t played the 2nd game yet but I’ve seen a lot of clips and he can be… a lot, but I also find him rlly relatable (again, he’s autistic and traumatized, I have a type). I also rlly like his design, DR is kinda known for it’s out there designs (just look at Ibuki) but I think Kaz’s rlly works, especially considering the context behind why he dresses that way. *Points* look at all that insecurity and trust issues, how could I not love him?

DRV3 - Kokichi, who is also my favorite DR character in general, as I am a basic bitch. He is my meow meow who is soooooo fucked up. He cares so much abt others and helping them but he’s also paranoid and distrustful and a compulsive liar and he doesn’t want anyone around in case he gets hurt but also he’s desperately lonely and *gestures* look at all this trauma and autism!!!! He is a creature!!! Look at this clown!!! The hanger consumes my every thought now.

8. What did I think of Kaede’s death/execution?

Keeping in mind I haven’t played the 3rd game and have only seen a number of clips as of rn, Kaede’s execution is pretty horrific to me. For one, it’s completely unfair since she didn’t actually kill Rantaro. Two, hanging is one of the most painful ways I can think of to die. It’s slow, it’s asphyxiation which means ur lungs are basically burning for oxygen, and she’s being swung around which is just agitating the wound. It’s also sad to me because I really wish Kaede was the true protagonist. We haven’t had a female protagonist yet (apart from Komaru) and Kaede is a truly interesting character. Not that I despise Shuichi exactly but Kaede is just better to me. I really wish Rantaro and her both could have gotten farther so that we could’ve gotten to know them better.

12. How I think character A would get along/interact with character B? (talking about characters from different games)

You didn’t give any characters for this so I’ll just talk abt the cross-game dynamic I find most interesting!

Kokichi, Fuyuhiko, and Mondo I think would be a fascinating group. Considering all three of them are leaders of (vaguely in Kokichi’s case) illegal groups but all have drastically different ways of leading I think there’s a lot they could learn from one another. The way they came into leadership is interesting too, since Mondo gained it from his brother and has guilt abt it, Fuyuhiko was born into it but seemingly doesn’t truly want to be a part of it, and Kokichi is a leader by choice who (seemingly) brought his group together by himself. Fuyuhiko and Mondo are fairly similar in temperament too, and we know from the side games that they’d get along fairly well. Kokichi’s just a fun wildcard who I think would both annoy the hell out of them while also startling them with his intellect and leadership skills.
