//For shits and giggles, and because I don't really talk about DRA and SDRA2 that much

The concept of fanmade Danganronpa's was completely and totally foreign to me, and I didn't even consider it being a possibility until I found a random video of SDRA2 Chapter 3 of the game, being Kanade and Hibiki's case. I didn't know what it was and assumed it was a fan animation with their OC's (because I'd seen that before) and then I realized jesus christ it's a whole ass game?

I actually like DRA better. Mainly because of the colourful character designs and how it's a much more interesting take on a classic killing game than it's sequel.

DRA1 Fav: Chapter 4 SDRA2 Fav: Chapter 1 DRA1 Least Fav: Chapter 3 SDRA2 Least Fav: Chapter 2

Akane. Utsuro is too similar to Izuru, and I hated Mikado.

Probably Hajime, only because when compared to the rest, he's the most chill. (He still has issues but I like his character and he was a very good first killer)

Rei from the first game, Yoruko from the second.

Kanata from the first game, Sora from the second.

TOO many. Both games barely take into account Ultimate Talents with the murders (and I love it when DR does that) and to my knowledge it only happens twice, with Mitch and Emma (AKA the two most disappointing killers in the series) But my verdict is ultimately going to go to the Otonokoji twins, because it comes up so NOT often I actually forget what their talents are. Yes, they had a show in one chapter, but that was just one bit.

From the second game, both Kokoro and Hibiki were handled very poorly and I wish they weren't. They just ended up boring and irrelevant.

I liked Hajime a lot, and really wish there was more of him because I think he was a pretty decent character throughout.

Again, Hibiki. I still don't understand the point of the Otonokoji Twins even being twins. They might as well not be because Hibiki's only purpose in the whole game is to be an accomplice to Kanade.

AGAIN, Hibiki from the second game. Fuck she deserved it after everything. But other than her, I definitely wanted Kanata to survive in the first game. Her death was a similar "fuck you" moment.

Setsuka's execution is extremally visceral in it's description and now I kind of want to see it to see just how horrible it is.

I said this a long time ago when I ranked the executions across the Another series, but it honestly changes depending on the context of the question. If we're talking narratively, then the group execution of SDRA2 Chapter 5. If we're talking visually, then Emma's Execution from SDRA2 Chapter 2. It seemed SDRA2 and Danganronpa V3 have the commonality of giving a really harsh and powerful execution to a character I really don't give a shit about in the second chapter.

I honestly don't really know. My first thought is perhaps Iroha, not because I don't like her, but because none of the VOID's die by being a victim. Hajime, Emma and Nikei are all executed and Iroha survives, so I was wondering what if her plan to murder Teruya backfires, then everyone, Teruya himself, believes he's the killer, then Mikado pulls the middle-finger switch.

I feel like this a similar question to Number 3, so I'll just say my favourite trial in the whole series is DRA1 Chapter 2/Chapter 6 (one or the other) My least fav in the series is SDRA2 Chapter 2/Chapter 3 (One is too boring, the other is too long and stupid.

There are a few, but the main one's are the DRA mastermind reveal and Satsuki outing herself as the killer right at the start of Trial 4

Most headcanons of SDRA2 are canon in Survivor, but I think a big one is that Syobai begrudgingly becomes a big brother/uncle figure to the young Iroha post game and the two bond through survival, and become better people because of each other (The Omake says otherwise but...fuck it.)

I don't like DRA or SDRA2 over the main series. I don't think it improves on the Danganronpa format at all, and I think it just exists as it's own little take on the series that isn't really a better version.

Both endings were pretty decent. I think both games conclude pretty well, even SDRA2 with it's controversial run time for me.

@a-student-out-of-time I'm tagging you because I want to see you try this. (I don't know your main so I'm tagging the blog)

dont know if you been asked this but i am curious

would you genuinely consider sdra2 a bad fangan/story?like what rating would you exactly give it if you can,what are the major positives and negatives in your eyes?

//I don't think SDRA2's a bad fangan, it's just a deeply flawed one. I know I complain about it a lot, and that's because LINUJ is capable of great writing. He just has this weird habit of undercutting his work for inexplicable reasons ^^;

//As for the big pros and cons of SDRA2 in my opinion?

+ Overall, the cast, at least for the first two chapters, is pretty solid and I like their dynamics. They're all pretty well-written and nobody feels flat + I like how this game utilizes the Neo World Program as more than just a setting, but integrates its mechanics into the plot as well + The decision to reveal Mikado as the mastermind from the very beginning was a good one, allowing us to get to know him as this theatrical villain through the whole game + Having essentially four traitors in the group was also an interesting idea and changed up the dynamic + The character drama concerning Sora and Yuki, especially in Chapter 5, is really well done, especially with how it connects back to the first game + I really enjoyed Hibiki's character growth in the first half of the game + Sora and Yoruko's relationship is fantastic + Having the characters from Chapter 6.5 of DRA really feels like it has a nice bit of continuity to things

-Even if it had some different elements, I personally would've enjoyed it better if the Another games didn't keep following up the canon ones with the exact same setting ideas, going from Hope's Peak to an island -The game doesn't have a solid theme. It's supposed to be about Progress vs. Result, but this is only apparent through dialogue, rather than made clear through the actual narrative and events of the story. Actually trying to follow the story's events to find a cohesive theme will just leave you floundering. -Most of the cast unfortunately feels superfluous, as the story is mostly centered on the Voids and Utsuro. Hibiki sadly gets the worst of it there, where her story feels less like a tragedy and more like a meaningless death for the sake of having a shocking twist -Chapters 3, 4, and 6 are very weak compared to the rest of the game. One is almost completely irrelevant to the actual story, one was rewritten to avoid being too similar to another fangan and one is stuffed to the gills with exposition and infodumps because of the latter two. - Kanade. She's overrated, poorly-written shock bait, and the more you go back and re-experience the story of SDRA2, the more you can see how pointless she really is as a character. She either shouldn't be there at all or Chapter 3 should've been rewritten to actually have her expose one of the Voids. That might actually convince me that she's supposed to be smart -While I understand why it happens, a lot of the characters get far too mean, bitter, argumentative or villainous for me to get invested. Iroha is basically useless, does nothing but cry and whine and depend on others, and yet survives to the end without a drop of character development. Kokoro honestly gets the worst of it in Chapter 0, to the point that it feels borderline ableist to me. -The Sixth Trial feels like it veers off too much into "Yes, but" territory, where we constantly cycle between problem and solution, and it gets really repetitive. Having Sora win thanks to having Divine Luck at least doesn't feel like too much of a cop out, given that it's literally the focal point of the story, but it still felt like things were drawn out too long and there was too little foreshadowing on a lot of elements for them not to feel like they came out of left field. -LINUJ's weird insistence with undercutting the emotional core of many of the characters' arcs, which you can see especially in the character profiles and blog posts. It feels like a bad cast of telling and not showing, where he tells us that we shouldn't feel sympathy for people like the Voids, that people like Syobai never change and that Kanade's entire personality revolves around her sister. All of it undermines the actual story if you read them. -Sora keeps sisterzoning Yoruko and I have no idea why
