#future foundation arc

[thenewfuture]

Kyosuke stop! This isn't hope at all! This... This is tyrany! All you're doing is continuing the cycle of despair and death!

Hardly. By cutting despair off at the roots ensure it won't be able to grow and spread again.

And that is exactly what I am trying to accomplish here!

To what end!?

You want to stop despair, I understand that. But what are you trying to accomplish here with this?

You called Bandai's death a sacrifice, and now you're attempting to kill us as well for the simple reason that we don't think they're responsible for this game?

How is this helping the world? How is this avenging Bandai and Chisa's death?!

SILENCE! YOU DO NOT GET TO SPEAK ABOUT HER LIKE THAT!

!

!

.....I am....doing this......for her....and for everyone...!

And you're only delaying the your fate! Despair dies right here and NOW!

Hmph.

Oh, oh no...

'Nnngh, crap! I don't know if I can even keep going on like this much longer....'

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

Every word out of your mouth is fucking disappointing me.

Doubting yourself? Now?! At the most critical points in battle?! Maybe your own life and friends aren't dear enough to you, is that it?!

You continue to lie to yourself, over and over and over again today. It is all ever seem to do. Heed my words: accept the truth, Hajime Hinata.

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

'What truth?! Knock it off with your bullshit already! I don't need this right now!'

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

Fine. But the least you can do is move your head to avoid the incoming projectile from behind.

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

'The what?'

*Ptchoosh!*

*Instinctively Hajime moves his head slightly to avoid a seemingly thin projectile that just narrowly misses Kyosuke*

You...

*Hajime and his group turn back to reveal who shot the attack....*

Hmmm, missed. I really am getting too old.

click for better quality + rbs appreciated :D i stuffed tons of detail into this one!! see if you can spot it all, i point out everything under the cut!

that fourth one is a space filler i really like how that lighting turned out

[spittyfishy]

It's been a while but.. Can i have more remnant Ryota content please :3 anything would be fine, I just need something to feed my hyper fixation lmfao 👹

For the first several months this was in my inbox I had been reading it as ‘Ryoma’ and I’m so glad I caught it in time cause that would have been embarrassing lol

meme dump

[drawbauchery]

thought we'd check in on the Lost in the Hallway(tm) crew

SO it's still the same with the og survivor group joining, but more of the class is hopping aboard too (taka, chihiro, and sakura jumped at the chance). i think the only reason ff relented and allowed the remnants to use their hospital was because all of the thh class pulled sad puppy eyes & promised to take care of them. it's not all roses, but i think whatever wariness/resentment 78 feels towards 77 won't make them turn their backs. they are makoto's class after all.

no no the lil remnants have a more punch-on-sight adversary to watch out for. if not just to make their lives a little more difficult than they need to be ヾ(*´ ∇ `)ﾉ

DAY 16: DANGANTOBER

Day 16: Favorite Scene

There are so many scenes that I could call my favorite of the series. I like scenes that are silly and lighthearted, and some that are bone-chilling. There were scenes that I was delighted by, and scenes that left me with a sinking pit of dread in my stomach. The scene that I decided to go with is one that caught me off-guard on first viewing. When it played out on my screen late one Wednesday night, it EMBEDDED itself in my memory, and crosses my mind at least once a week. Yep, the GIF is a dead giveaway, it's a scene that I call "Makoto's Despair".

Original Uploader: Nagito Komeada on YouTube (yes, it's spelled that way in their user)

When I say my jaw dropped during this scene, I meant it. I'm someone who really appreciates when things get more disturbing in this way, even if the scene itself involves subject matter that scares me. It shows guts, and its a good way to make me feel the stakes and tension that is needed to become invested. Readers of my posts will know exactly the reason this scene freaks me out, and if you're unfamiliar, I have my makeup post for yesterday coming out very soon and it will talked about on there. Some background information and summary on the scene for those of you who didn't watch the anime, or are too chicken to watch the scene. This scene takes place in Episode 11 'All Good Things' of Future Arc. After Kyoko's death in episode 10 'Death, Destruction, and Despair', Aoi finds a journal underneath her body. Written in the journal is Kyoko's deduction and conclusion on who the traitor in the Future Foundation killing game is. She hypothesized that there was no traitor, and that the monitors placed throughout the hallways of the facility were somehow brainwashing whoever was closest to them between rounds to commit unalive. To test her theory, Makoto decides to use himself as the subject for the experiment. He is tied to a chair in front of a monitor, while everyone else goes into a room without monitors. The round ends, and everyone is put to sleep. Makoto is woken up shortly afterwards by the red glow of the monitor. The monitor begins to play a video of Monokuma, and begins the brainwashing sequence. Makoto finds himself in a strange, void-like place. Kyoko and Sayaka appear, taunting him with reminders of the Hope's Peak killing game. Sayaka reminds him that he was unable to get her out like he promised, and Kyoko blames him for her death. His other deceased classmates also appear, and their bodies start to change to resemble how they looked when they died. Makoto tries to apologize, saying he just wanted everyone to be together and happy.

Outside of this void, which is assumedly his mind, Makoto is screaming and struggling to get off the chair. He gets himself free, and a knife drops from the monitor. He picks it up, and in his mind, Kyoko and Sayaka tell him to join them. Makoto has a strained grin on his face, and opens his eyes, now swirling with red spirals. He says he'll join them, but he's stopped by Juzo Sakakura. Juzo uses some 'not so gentle' means to get Makoto to snap out of it. Makoto then returns to the others with confirmation for Kyoko's theory.

This scene is one that provides good insight into who Makoto is as a person. In my Day 3 post for Dangantober, I briefly talked about Makoto having survivor's guilt, and this scene is my basis for that claim. It's very on the nose about it. Survivor's guilt is a trauma response that can happen when someone feels guilty over surviving an event where others died. It can cause similar symptoms to PTSD and other traumatic disorders. It's the idea of "why was I the one to live, and not these other people?", which is obviously an unhealthy mindset.

Makoto hides it well, but he does display certain symptoms of survivor's guilt. In episode 6, 'No Man Is An Island', Makoto has a vivid nightmare of Kyoko's death, with Munakata blaming Makoto for her death. Specifically, saying that Makoto was at fault for thinking he would be able to go through the entirety of this game without sacrificing someone close to him. Intense and vivid nightmares that harken back to whatever traumatic event happened or is currently happening, is one of the main symptoms of survivor's guilt.

Aside from serving as excellent foreshadowing for episode 10, this nightmare is a sign that the active stress from being in this new killing game is getting to him. His survivor's guilt would worsen as a result of Kyoko's real death, since the circumstances would lead him to believe it was his fault for just surviving.

See, the Future Foundation killing game has a special twist to it. Everyone has a bracelet on their wrist, that has a "Forbidden Action" on it. Doing this action will result in your death via the release of a certain poison. For example, Makoto's forbidden action is running in the halls, so Aoi gives him a piggyback ride. Kyoko's forbidden action is "Passing the 4th time limit with Makoto Naegi alive". If he lives past the fourth round, which he did, she would die. She deliberately hides this from him, not wanting him to worry.

Now that she's dead, he learns about her forbidden action, and he nearly shuts down with grief. Yet another person he cares about, gone instead of him. From this point onwards, he spends a lot of his time doing more reckless actions in order to stop this game, from confronting Munakata (who wants Makoto dead or captured) to this very incident with the video.

The guilt is pushing him to move without regard for himself, which is very close to more self-destructive symptoms of survivor's guilt. That's also why Kyoko plays such a big part in this scene. It's fresh trauma, fresh pain, that only serves to amplify these feelings within him.

Of course, Makoto manages to recover and pick himself back up with help from the people around him, like Aoi, and Munakata after a change of heart. He's a strong person, he's resilient, and he is the Ultimate Hope for a reason. There is no easy wrap-up for dealing with survivor's guilt. He's always going to be dealing with these feelings, but hopefully, as the world heals, so will he.

Besides, it definitely helps that Kyoko actually survives.

[jankydem]

Shoves Genderbent Mitarai in your face

I got a iPad for my birthday and I just haddd to draw something! I love this so much, still need a pen tho

Extra info about fem Mitarai (tw)-

• She wears a relatively long skirt along with tights to cover and hide her skin as much as possible while also following F.F uniform policy due to the ‘incident’ that happened between her and Tsumiki, causing her to be uncomfortable with her skin being covered to due trauma reasons.

• She hates a lot of things about her appearance but loves her hair

• She’s very eepy…

Weekly Danganronpa Poll

[danganronpa96]

idk if this is the right place to ask but what was the planned story of despair gang? (if you're okay with answering!)

At this point I have to be honest with myself and realise that no, I’m probably never going to go back to that fic considering all the plans I have for myself for the future (lol)

In that case, I’m finally going share what was going to happen in the rest of the plot (fun fact chapter 6 had already been half written before I stopped working on it rip)

So, for anyone curious, I’m going to leave a link to the unfinished chapter 6 (with some extra notes and art) and the rest of the plot under the cut

So, I kind of split the story into 5 acts and an epilogue, and chapter 6 was the start of act 2. Bear in mind I only wrote down a vague plan of the story as the majority of it was in my head at the time.

Chapter 6: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p8uFhqoSiFgyAz5PYmYn1O7EHHVPkZXF3xMi_d4b7to/edit?usp=sharing

When it cuts back to the gang, before making it to the apartments, they come across a basketball court full of Monokumas in their way. They deal with them together as a team.

They then have a round of basketball together (Rin and Papyrus vs. Hajime and Matt) — Hajime manages to score the final dunk only because of the help of Izuru, who he quickly attempts to repress as the others cheer for him.

Afterwards, they find the apartments and settle into one that’s the least destroyed and messy.

Rest of Act 2:

At one point, the gang find a playground where Rin and Matt go on the swings. They talk about what they should do after the tragedy, mentioning theme parks, which sparks Hajime to chime in. Rin and Matt then go to the bathroom, leaving Hajime and Papyrus alone. Papyrus tries to talk to Hajime about what happened at the basketball court.

Another day, Hajime and Papyrus go out to find entertainment for Rin and Matt after the two complain about having nothing to do. Hajime gets his leg slashed by a Monokuma during an ambush, so Papyrus carries him to a bookstore where he can safety bandage him. He then gives Hajime a pep talk about his confidence. Hajime wants to say something back, but Monokumas once again catch them off guard, forcing them to flee back to the apartment.

Another day, Papyrus and Rin go out on a supply run while Hajime heals from his injury. During this time, Hajime gets to know Matt better, where he talks about his time working for Despair Melody (and puppy crush on Parappa).

There was going to be a scene where Hajime and Papyrus end up in an arena similar to the UDG game but instead of fighting a child, Gumi invites them into the middle of the arena for a challenge, demanding she gets Rin if she wins. However, Hajime and Papyrus manage to win, so Gumi cuts off her finger much to their horror.

The end of Act 2 would have the gang’s apartment being found and burned, forcing them to flee into the sewers.

Act 3:

After navigating the sewers for a while, they come onto land again where they realise they’ve ended up in a district all about Miku: billboards, flyers, merch stores, and music all around. They would go onto infiltrate Despair Melody’s base (which is the Parappa Town school). I think this was because they were going to use it to gain good reception to contact Future Foundation (and talk to Nagito and Parappa).

Act 4:

In an act of defiance and manic, Gumi kills Sunny. The gang wait atop the rooftop (of the school I’m assuming, perhaps to be picked up by Future Foundation) but are ambushed by Gumi, who they see has replaced her chopped off finger with Miku’s somehow. They would then flee through riots in the streets (probably Despair Melody’s doing) where they loose Matt during the escape. However, Izuru finally manifests, allowing Papyrus and Rin to be captured while he flees.

(I don’t remember what act this was going to be, but at one point while sitting alone, Hajime would finally gain the courage to tell Papyrus about Sans, but to his surprise, Papyrus figures it out himself. The two then have a hurt/comfort moment about it.)

Act 5:

Hajime is awoken/saved by AI Teto (was gonna be a whole other plot thing lol). Hajime then locates and saves Papyrus. As the two go to find Rin, AI Teto would take over a Monokuma and ensue some hijinks. Gumi would tell Rin the truth about Len: that he’s dead. He was the body that Miku used in the 3rd case of the 69th killing game that they dressed up as Miku (yes this is actually canon when Teto says “I didn’t want Miku to kidnap—” but cuts herself off in the 6th trial, she was going to spill that they kidnapped Len for that case). They save Rin and confront Gumi. Izuru manifests again, but this time to finish off Gumi himself by slashing her stomach.

I don’t know how this happens but in the plan it then says ‘the building explodes as the three are rescued by a Future Foundation helicopter’.

(I also assume this is the act where Hajime is finally true with his feelings towards Papyrus and is 100% reciprocated c’mon c’mon reverse sansmaeda real and true)

Epilogue:

The gang (I srsly don’t know what happened to Matt at this point maybe he was already on the helicopter that would be cool) join Future Foundation as the world starts to be rebuilt together. Gumi, who didn’t die, is put into the hope rehabilitation program.

Bonus: Hajime and Papyrus adopt Rin and Matt and now live as a family because a human and a skeleton can fall in love and raise a singing robot girl and a dog boy. The end :)

Also for anyone wondering, the participants of Sunny’s killing game were all planned to just die in the explosion, but hey wouldn’t it be funny if they were all found and rescued at the end instead 👍

[thenewfuture]

What like getting to the control room?

At the Communications Room...

*type-type-type. type-type*

"Alrighty then. Now to finish up the connections"

*Gonk* *Gonk* "..." *GonkGonkGonkGonkGonkGonkGonkGonk*

*Ker-lick!*

"First try!"

*Riiiiiing....Riiiing....Riiiing*

Okay, this has to work...

*Riiiing....Riiiiiing....Riiiiiiing-* *BZZZZRRRTTTT!*

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

Hello? This is Byakuya Togami of the-

What the-? You lot? What's going on?

It worked...! It really worked!

Oh-em-geeeee! Byakuya! You have no idea how happy we are to see you!

PLEASE! HELP US! SOS, SOS! WE REQUIRE IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE!

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

Slow down! Talk slowly and calmly. What happened? And where are you, is the trial not over yet?

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

What happened to us? Haven't you seen? We've been compromised and trapped in a killing game? Monokuma said it was being broadcasted live.

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

What?! A killing game?! Are you serious?!

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

You....haven't heard...?

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

No?! Makoto, believe me, if such a thing were to be occurring and broadcasted as you told me, then I would have been the FIRST to know about it!

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

Wait, so....nobody else knows what's going on?

What that Monokuma said...it was a falsehood?!

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

Obviously.

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

'Wait so...you knew too? That this wasn't being broadcasted to the world?'

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

As I said, "Obviously"

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

'What the hell man?! Why didn't you tell me?! And what do you mean, ''obviously" How the hell could you know?!'

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

*inhaaaaale....* Oh my fucking god.

Okay, Hinata. Time to use that brain of yours to good use and answer me this. Why are you still here?

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

'Huh? Because we-'

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

"Because you are stuck there", yes? But this isn't like the killing game that took place in Hope's Peak. That school was barbed and barricaded from the Tragedy, so that any rescue attempt would result in failure.

I don't know if you know this or not, but this isn't Hope's Peak Academy. You are trapped in a building assumedly covered by rubble and rock. Future Foundation is one of the strongest world rebuilding organizations in the world right now. Any long dissaperances by them would have made news and speculation. And I remind you that this is the same day as when Makoto took you here to testify.

So I am going to ask you again; If you were trapped in the Future Foundation's main headquarters for the purpose of a killing game, and said killing game was being broadcasted live, then why hasn't any and every available Future Foundation agent made their way here and freed you already?

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

'I....I see.... That does make sense, doesn't it?'

[metalichotchoco]

I always find my way back to my roots lol. I wanted to spice up the future foundation outfits because they are some of the most boring designs in the series. A series known for cool and striking designs using uniforms as a base. I definitely want to redo/ refine byakuya’s look but I’m happy with what I got lol.

[spittyfishy]

I once again participated in the @shsl-islandmode-events exchange, this one’s theme being Halloween! Here’s my gift for @arollingriver who asked for Ruruka finding Seiko preparing a spooky concoction! I hope you like it!
