What if the Danganronpa V3 Characters Were Given Digimon? Pt 3

Part 1, Part 2, Part 4

Here’s what I originally wanted to be included in the same post as Kaede, but the Tumblr app hates me so I had to copy and paste everything into a separate post.

Maki Harukawa

I think Maki was the easiest one for me so far. I already had sort of an idea of what I wanted do with her. I think it also helps that she had a lot more screen time compared to Kirumi and Kaede who both died early game. Some of those ideas changed, but I am proud of this line overall.

Rookie: ToyAgumon

I know this one is a little weird, but hear me out on this one! Honestly this rookie choice was a bit last minute. I had originally planned to use Commandramon, but I decided to use ToyAgumon as my default pick instead because I know I want to use it if I end up doing Mukuro. I settled on ToyAgumon because I wanted something that was related to the fact that Maki was first said to be the Ultimate Child Caregiver. While that talent ended up being fake she was still raised in an orphanage and had to look after the younger kids a lot. I really wanted to give Maki a seemingly cute and/or child-related digimon early in her line that transitions into something more dark and deadly. ToyAgumon is literally a digimon made of legos so the child connection is definitely there. This will reflect how her talent went from something sweet like Ultimate Child Caregiver to something much more sinister like Ultimate Assassin. My original line did not have that aspect so when I realized the overlap I would have if I end up doing Mukuro, it did not bother me so much when I ended up changing it. If the colors through you off we could use ShadowToyAgumon instead, since it is just silver.

But I do still think that Commandramon is an amazing pick that you could easily use as the rookie instead if you prefer. It fits well with Maki’s assassin talent and it hints at her talent in using different types of weapons. But no matter which rookie you prefer I think both will be a good transition into their Champion form.

Champion: Sealsdramon

For anyone that prefers Commandramon, I am sure you will be happy to know that I used its default champion form. I originally was not going to use this one because I didn’t think it looked like a Maki digimon. I briefly thought about using BlackGatomon or Meicoomon, because once again I liked the idea of using something cute and both alluded to darker themes. But I was having trouble making those two picks work, so I decided to look into Sealsdramon more in depth. They are literally used as assassins in the digital world. I take back what I said in the beginning this is a perfect digimon for Maki. I also did not notice this until I started typing this post, but Sealsdramon uses knifes, which is Maki’s main weapon.

Ultimate: Aegiochusmon Dark

I know I said I wanted to avoid repeats, but this is a different form and Kirumi’s Aegiochusmon would be an alternate digivolution anyway, so I am not counting it as one. It still has some animal/dinosaur like aspects so I think the transition works okay. I did think about using Sealsdramon’s default digivolution Tankdramon, but I think that focused too much on weapons. I will admit I am a bit Aegiochusmon obsessed so maybe there are better digimon to use than it’s dark form for Maki. But I did actually put some thought behind this one. I really liked the idea of giving Maki a vaccine type digimon that looked evil/more like a virus type. I know that technically wether a digimon is a virus, vaccine, or data type don’t actually determine wether a digimon is good or evil, but I still like the idea. Surprisingly not matter what form Aegiochusmon takes it still remains a vaccine type digimon, even if it takes the dark form. Since vaccine types are usually depicted as the hero-like digimon, I thought having an evil looking vaccine type would serve as a good parallel for Maki. She seems like a cold-hearted ruthless assassin, but in reality Maki only became an assassin to protect the orphanage she grew up in. Underneath that tough and cold personality is a person who really cares about the people she is close to. Maki is not a bad person. LadyDevimon was also a digimon that was a strong contender though since a mostly portrayed as evil digimon would be put in a more heroic role if this was an anime/fanfiction. The parallel would not be made in the exact same way, but it would still exist.

Mega: Gaiomon

Since Maki’s digivolution line got darker and more evil looking as it went I wanted a mega that at least kinda looked like it could be a villain. While Maki is not a villain in Danganronpa a lot of the V3 cast treated her like one when they found out she was the Ultimate Assassin. Also if this was an anime/fanfiction Maki would totally be the edgy character with the edgy looking digimon. I will die on this hill! I was originally going to use Lilithmon since the transition from a more feminine digimon like Aegiochusmon would make sense. But then my dumb*ss completely missed that both Sealsdramon and Aegiochusmon Dark both had blade-like weapons. So I was like wait I can’t have a digivolution line for Maki with no blade wielding digimon. Her main weapon is a knife (at least I think it is since she even has her own sprite of her using one). So I eventually settled on Gaiomon since it had some very obvious blades, and it looks kinda edgy. Also the dinosaur like base serves as a nice connection to the rest of the line. I will admit that most of my thought process was based on my own stupidity, but I actually really do like this pick. I am glad I didn’t use Lilithmon because I don’t think her whole lust theme would fit Maki anyways. I did also think of using Reapermon since an assassin is associated with death, but I didn’t think it fit as well. It’s still a solid choice.

Now Maki is one of the few characters that I will not give a dark digivolution too. This is mainly because most of Maki’s digivolution line looks evil or like the dark form of something. If you want one really badly you could use Reapermon I guess?? I just didn’t think giving her one would fit very well. Instead I am going to give her an alternate Mega in the form of GuardiAngemon.

To explain this it’s time to go back to fanfiction/anime territory. As I mentioned earlier I think Maki would most likely play the role of the edgy/standoffish character in the series. Similar to Kiriha in Xros Wars or Rei Katsura from Appmon (yes I do consider Appmon to be a part of digimon. Sue me). I can see her having a distant relationship with both her digimon and the rest of the cast. Possibly also struggling with a lot of self loathing due to her assassin work. But overtime she grows to trust her friends and partner digimon, as well as herself. This could happen in a big final battle or something similar and instead of becoming Gaiomon her partner becomes GuardiAngemon a holy angel digimon of light. Maki is finally “embracing the light” and after giving her a very evil/dark looking line I think her digimon becoming a literal angel would fit that theme well. This is not me saying that Gaiomon was actually a dark digivolution. It’s more of a your lack of trust and self loathing was not letting your digimon reach its fullest potential situation.

I settled in GuardiAngemon because the angel digimon are the most obvious forms of light and good. I thought her mega doing a complete 180 would be fun. Also because it has blades for arms and I wanted to keep the blade theme with Maki. It is a shame that the dinosaur theme is gone and the connection is very small, but that’s digimon for you.

That’s it for Maki! As you can see while I am very proud of this line, and there were a lot of other strong options for me to give her. Once again I would love to see your guys’ opinions on what digimon you think would better suite the characters if you think mine are kinda crazy.

2017

Someone called us wasps again. Let’s bring back old discourse. Bmblb is about Yang's bike /j

Listen as someone who some people consider to be a veteran in this fandom but has actually only been here since 2020 to this day I burst out laughing every time I remember that people genuinely said that the song was about the fucking bike like what the fuck was up

Caves are weirder and more varied than you think

I’m not Jewish but I am currently learning about this in a religious studies class.

This is 100% true!! Proselytizing is something that they just don’t do in Judaism. If you want to convert to Judaism you totally can. I don’t know all the details, but according to the very limited information I received from my Jewish suitemate, it’s not not very hard to do. Unlike other religions where the process can be a literal hell hole. You’re not going to be looked down upon for not being born Jewish either. But no one is going to discuss conversion unless YOU bring it up.

But if you don’t want to convert? That’s not a problem! You will not be treated any differently. Your beliefs will be respected! No one is going to try to convince you to convert.

In all: Want to convert? Cool! Don’t want to convert? Cool!

btw Jewish charity organizations in the USA don’t exist to convert you like Christian charity organizations, they are specifically Jewish because they were likely founded by Jews who were being turned away from other organizations. several Jewish hospitals exist in the US because many Jewish immigrants had degrees but were turned away from other hospitals for being Jewish. so we made our own, lmao. these days most of these organizations are no longer specifically Jewish because job and care discrimination is not as common for us as it used to be. i’m saying this just in case anybody is wary of accepting aid (many Jewish charities set up free food kitchens, for example) from a Jewish charity because of mistreatment by Christian ones, and i think it’s important to understand the difference

THAT’S AN ADHD THING??!!

I thought I was just dumb or overly anxious. I’ve been diagnosed since I was in elementary school. How did I not know this??!!!

I see a lot of people joking about the adhd thing of "I have a appointment/phone call at 3pm, guess I won't do anything all day!"

But no one seems to make the connection that it's a time blindness thing. One of the symptoms of ADHD is not having a good and accurate sense of time. And not doing stuff prior to an event with a hard deadline is an obvious coping mechanism for that.

Can I go to the store? It's 10am and the appointment is at 3pm. How long does going to the store take? An hour? Three hours? Five hours? I DON'T KNOW!

I get anxious trying to do things before appointments because I'm aware that I don't know how long those things take, and that if I think I do, I may be very wrong. Too often I've been like "hey I can walk to the corner store and grab a drink, that'll take like 15 minutes!" and then an hour later I get back and whoops my rice has burnt.

Plus there's also the fact that ADHD people know that motivation and focus is a two-edged sword.

Like, let's say you decide to play a video game. You've got time, you can pause/save whenever, so this should be a perfect fit to make good use of your waiting-time. So you start playing and WHOOPS you get really focused for some reason today (because people with ADHD do not get to pick when their brain decides to focus) and the next time you look at the clock it's 2:49 and you haven't showered or dressed and the appointment is 30 minutes away. Fuck. (you could have set an alarm, but now you're asking people with the forgetting-things-and-time-ignoring condition to remember it set alarms)

And with motivation, it can be almost worse. Instead of playing a game, you so something useful or creative. You clean your room or fix your plumbing or write a story or draw a picture. And suddenly it's great. Your brain is firing on all cylinders. You've got all the motivation you can ask for, and you are FLYING. the ideas are brilliant, your hands are nimble, you're getting stuff done you've been putting off for weeks or months. And then the alarm goes off. Time to go to your appointment. Fuck.

You drive there, your brain still full of ideas and plans. But by the time you get back, the motivation is gone. You may still have the ideas but you don't have the drive to write them down. You can't force yourself to do it. Your sink is still in pieces. Your room is half-cleaned, and you have to shove all the sorted clothes into one big bin just so you have somewhere to sleep. You've left things half finished again, in a cycle that has been repeating your whole fucking life. It seems sometimes that nothing ever gets finished.

So next time you don't even start. There's not time. You've been burnt too many times. Why add another half-completed project to your pile of shame?

My point is that people seem to be going "lol I can't do anything all day if I have an appointment at 3pm" like this is a quirky "oh I'm so scatterbrained!" weirdness they alone have, and not a major complication of a disabling mental illness.

(and that's not even getting into the secondary effects. If you know that having an appointment ruins your whole damn day, you're going to avoid them. Even when it's things like "going to that party" or "meeting your friends for a drink/game" or "going to a movie with that cute girl from your math class". Things you should enjoy. Things that'd help you be social. Things that make you feel human.)

This is the way you’re supposed to do pranks!

I was today years old when I learned that when you type “otp: true” in AO3 search results it filters out fics with additional ships, leaving only the fics where your otp is the main ship

Being short is fun because you can give people an entire crisis if you’re not the age they think you are. In my senior year of high school I was complaining about how stressed I was for my IB exams during theatre. One of the juniors looked startled and asked me why I would be worried about that. When I told him I was a senior and older than him, he immediately started asking how old the freshmen were. They’re still 14 my guy. But me not being 14 immediately made this man question everyone’s ages. One of the best moments of my life.
