Should I play Danganropa 1 visual novel game?

 

because I've heard that they've rushed the anime and they may have left out interesting details that the visual novel game has.

 

Also please discuss everything Danganropa here!

    Buy the steam release right now and yeah it was rushed, what do you expect with 12 episodes? lol

  • Now, I find this arc a bit more interesting than that of the Mirai-hen which is obviously still VERY interesting.   However we're going to get so many things in this arc that we haven't ever seen an

  • the OST for the game is sounding awesome so far!

Yes the anime only talked about the story stuff but you could do so much more stuff in the game and get a little more story on some of the characters

Yes. I played through it a few months ago and loved it. Also watched the anime and yeah a lot of stuff is rushed. They mostly skip over stuff with the trials and investigations. The main story is still the same. But if you want the full experience then I recommend playing the game.

If there is anything canon in the Danganropa series, I'd like to see it so I have a better understanding of the series. :)

There's the manga that's called Danganronpa Gaiden, which is a canon spin-off to the series.It was originally just called Killer Killer so that people wouldn't know it was a spin off.

It has about 4 chapters now, you can find the english translations online.

There are a couple of books that explain where the despair got the technology to do what they did to the main cast of the first game, good luck finding translations though, everywhere you look it gets taken down for wome reason.

Definitely despair. I'm not really interested in the first game's characters all that much, a lot of them ended up feeling kind of plain and boring? Or maybe they were too well explained? There is a lot more mystery with the SDR2 cast because we don't know a terrible amount about them prior to coming to Hope's Peak aside from the things you learn during FTE. But what has me most excited is the chance to perhaps see Kamukura!

 

Sorry I can't vote in the poll you have set up, I don't own a twitter account myself.

so hyped! what do you guys think of the look for the anime? 

I do not think I will ever play the Daganropa games, but I know some about it, and it just looks soooooo interesting!! I might watch the first season of the anime.

if you are going to watch the anime, I recommend you at least watching a walkthough of the first two games on youtube or play them yourself, so you'll understand what is going on in the Danganropa 3 anime completely. 

umm... when does the anime exactly play? Seems like it plays between 1&2 right? Because we saw some of the school life with the Dangan Ronpa 2 cast^^

There are two arcs in the anime, the future arc and the despair ace. the future arc takes place after Danganropa 2 with some of the survivors from Danganropa 1 and mostly a new cast. The despair arc takes place before Danganropa 2, so this is before the second killing game started; therefore all the people from the second game are in the despair arc.

Ahhh okay that's cool  :3

For all of you Danganropa fans, as you all know, danganropa 3 anime airs tomorrow, so I thought it would be nice if I posted this flow chart of character relations in the future arc of the anime. The flow chart mostly explains who's wants Naegi to get executed and who doesn't want Naegi to get executed Posted Image

Now, I find this arc a bit more interesting than that of the Mirai-hen which is obviously still VERY interesting.

 

However we're going to get so many things in this arc that we haven't ever seen animated before.

 

We're going to see;

 

 

  • Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu's sister get murdered.
  • Hajime Hinata get inducted into the Izuru Kamukura Project
  • Possibly even see our 78th Class A.K.A Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc cast in this anime
  • Maybe some things from the Danganronpa/Zero with Ryoko Otonashi otherwise known as the fake identity of Junko Enoshima.
  • The VERY FIRST Killing Game. Not the Trigger Happy Havoc one. I mean the very first one where Junko Enoshima puts students together and Izuru Kamukura kills the entire Student Council and wins the first killing game.
  • The entire 77th Class be turned into Ultimate Despairs by Junko

 

 

 

IN THAT ORDER. That's crazy to think we're all finally getting to see these events take place.

We also might see kirigi's dad's death in the anime. also, something to take note of, 

you can see kirigi's dad die in the opening animated cutscene in Danganropa 1 happy trigger havoc which makes me wonder if we're going to see why he died or should I say why he had to die

 

For some reason I keep getting the feeling that the new teacher (can't remember her name at this moment in time) is actually Junko that crazy personality she's showing in the despair arc in comparison to what we saw in the future arc first episode seems way to different in my eyes 

 

that or I'm over thinking this way to much

She's not. In this anime, Junko will and should only be two people. The previously mentioned Ryoko Otonashi and Junko Enoshima. If she's anyone else that will completely retcon Danganronpa/Zero, which might I add, is canon.

The reason why he died is probably because Junko is a crazy mofo like that.

for some reason, I find this very likely.

well the anime is suppose to be Danganronpa 3 so i doubt it.

That was typo. I'll fix it right now

Probably at the end of the year, if all goes well with a 2016 release.

well the anime is suppose to be Danganronpa 3 so i doubt it.

There's the game coming as well.

I`m interested in both Danganronpa 3 Arc´s, but more in the Despair Arc, too. ^_^I really want to know how Junko manipulated/brainwashed all the DR2-characters and what exactly caused it to fell into despair (and in love with her).

I know from some free time events some possibilities, but I want to confirm it in the DR3 Anime.I hope that not everyone in DR2 is in love with Junko. (I don´t like her. I like Mukuro and hope we can see her in this Arc, too. ^^)

Maybe we can get to know Junko and Mukuro´s story/past and why they fell into despair in the first place and what caused Junko to be like she is now.I´m curios to know the mystery/secrets of Junko and all the hidden mysteries of the school/Hope´s Peak Academy, too (since this anime is the conclusion of it).

I hope we get to know the mysterious fate of Chiaki and the detailed ending of DR2 (if they wake up again and what will they do after that).I wish for a good ending, but then again this is Danganronpa, so it can be the opposite (I hope not).Anyway I´m excited to see what happens next in the DR3 anime. It´s interesting and thrilling. ^^
