The Danganronpa Anime Is Out (Spoiler Warning For The Games)
KrackoCloud:
I'm not even sure where to start with today's episode... so much happened. TOO MUCH HAPPENED
Spoiler: I'm a little disappointed that this killing game is so similar to Mafia/Werewolf, but it's mostly forgivable. The forbidden actions sounds fun.
Spoiler: I WASN'T EXPECTING A DR1 CAST MEMBER TO DIE SO SOON
Polaris:
I am... in despair.

Alright, I'm watching right now.
Spoiler: -Ha ha, Yu Narukami Guy's death in the opening is a self-inflicted bullet to the head. Granted so it's Makoto's, but still, PERSONA! confirmed.
-Monokuma's Japanese VA does nothing for me.
-Ooh, Monomi's here. That's interesting. It's not clear to what degree it's the same one. Presumably the Monomi we know was an autonomous AI that was just patterned after Gekkogahara, but I suppose it could have actually been her.
-I wonder if Gekkogahara needs that wheelchair or she's just being weird? Can she walk? Extreme long-shot theory: Gekkogahara is Chiaki. We know Chiaki was a real person after all now but we don't know what happens to her, so maybe she gets maimed by the Remnants and ends up joining Future Foundation? There are a ton of holes in this theory and very little basis for it, but they do look kind of similar from the very little of Gekkogahara we can see. Then again their hair is entirely different and most Danganronpa characters have similar eyes. But they do have a number of connections through Monomi, the New World Program, and potential visual similarities.
-Wow, what, that weird little girl man died already? Christ, that was fast. Too bad too, he seemed interesting.
-The action choreography and music are pretty lackluster. That's a budget thing I assume, but it's unfortunate. Oh well. Not really what the show's about.
-Twist isn't THAT much of a twist. It was going to be either Asahina or Great Gozu (or a long-shot of Gekkogahara, but I assume there's much more to be done with her) who was dead upon everyone waking up. I guess if I HAD to pick one it would be Asahina. That sort of points toward one of the three surviving people in that room as being the killer, but it's by no means a sure thing.
-I wonder if Kyoko's forbidden action has something to do with being a detective? She hasn't spoken up with many deductions which is a bit unusual. Maybe she's still just gathering clues, but it seems weird that we haven't heard more from her.
So every time I've played one of the games I finished it in a span of 36 hours or less, so I concentrated all of the anxiousness in as short a period as possible. Having it spread out over a number of weeks is going to be an ordeal. Almost makes me wish I had waited for the whole series to end to watch it, but then I couldn't talk about it as it airs.

GDI... best character died... I need to binge on video games.... :fail:
