“my final present.”
body swapping shin and sara in a previous post was fun. it made me think about protag shin/antag sara, so i threw together a quick little swap. their dynamic makes me so ill! my favorite frenemies 🫶
yttd voice headcannons ^@^
most headcannons have nothing to do with personality between the two characters. ESPECIALLY IN KAI’S CASE!! (im so sorry)
for sara, i really like the naturally calm inflection. she’s way too put together in almost every situation, but the scream really sold me on this voice. it has a truly anguished sound while also still fitting to an adolescent character. if i saw one more kaede akamatsu headcannon, i would flip. usually when i see voice claims, they’re all danganronpa voices, and i really just wanna leave comparing the two back in 2020.
joe, i don’t believe would say any of those things, but i really like the voice given because it truly does sound adolescent.
i’ve always imagined shin with more of a naturally monotone voice, rather than the bryce papenbrook nagito laugh i see most people use. i feel like its good for his snarky lines. i feel like people forget that he’s not some evil mastermind. he’s literally just some 20 year old.
kanna’s voice feels sweet mixed with timid, to me. i also really liked the ‘true love’ line for her. she fantasizes about romance often, so she was one of the few that i felt the lines spoken also lined up with her character.
reko reminds me a lot of ymir. they’d probably get along really well— or despise one another. that’s just how similar personalities go.
i also wanted to give nao a really youthful voice. i thought the voice cracks were fitting. (maybe im just projecting because i still had voice cracks at 19)
keiji and reiner are literally the same archetype to me, i dunno. jaded, traumatized, depressed, buff, blondes.
alice and kenpatchi have literally nothing in common, but ive always liked to imagine him with an extremely gravelly voice because it makes the fact that he has an effeminate scream funnier to me.
gin and tony tony chopper just have the same energy to me. i considered alphones elric as well, but i didn’t like the whole… empty armor echo…
ranmaru just seems generally awkward to me. he’s slightly younger than sara in cannon, so i gave him a voice that sounded younger.
ranger… i can’t explain why… but i just KNOW jerma would have the perfect voice for him if he ever played yttd. jerma has a knack for that.
miley feels self explanatory to me. just felt right 🤷♀️
midori, i’ve always felt has an uncanny vibe from the robotic experimentation done on his body. the dummies/dolls are all meant to replicate humanity, but midori seems like the kind of person that wants to STRAY from his humanity, so i feel he would intentionally make himself more and more like a machine.
the voice itself is kinda whatever, but i really like that robotic/uncanny effect to it.
okay, JUST HEAR ME OUT ON KAI. he’s NOTHING like shou tucker, but he had such an unsettling vibe in chapter one that i can’t think of any other voice for him. i feel like it would perfectly mesh with the general mysterious vibe of both the chapter he was featured in, and his characterization as a possible stalker at the time.
this is the majority of yttd summed up.

y’all always say the english translation of yttd did keiji wrong… but i fear he’s never beating the p3do allegations either way. the 4koma comic about him is literally called “molestors not allowed” and kanna calls him “mr. bad touch”
random rant, but do q-taro fans exist yet or is it just me 😭😭 ? i really like yttd but haven’t been active in fandom since 2019-2020-ish. i started liking him after 2-1 when he finally took the last poison dart for gin in alice lives route and the main game solidified my love for his character. but back in those days, mfs HATED him to death istg 😭
like, no matter how much character development or redemption he got, people (especially on tiktok) only harped on him wanting to vote on the kids/nao in chapter one. fair reason to dislike him, but as reko said…man’s just a realist.
i always felt like it was unrealistic that people didn’t vote the kids off earlier (not that i wanted that). side tangent, but i feel like— in a way, keiji agreed with qtaro on that fact, but gets way less hate for it. despite being adamant about killing shin, he votes for kanna. i don’t know if he was moved by her desire to die for the betterment of the group and for both sara and shin or what his logic behind the vote was, but i could see it going two possible ways: either he casted the vote seeing losing kanna as a “punishment” for shin, or he just found her the least useful.
i thoroughly enjoyed q-taro’s character despite his flaws though. he is not a morally great person, but most of the people in the higher percentiles of survival aren’t. sara, in many circumstances/simulatuons, was the most ruthless out of all of them— hence her survival rate. keiji is cunning and manipulative, even willing to let others die simply to take burdens off his moral conscious. q-taro ranks just below the two.
i feel like some of (not all) the best plot twists in the game relied on q-taro. the token bad ending, the 2-2 card trades, the card placement in chapter 1, the end of the banquet.
and this may be a hot take, but his death was one of the most shattering to me. as soon as he had begun to trust his allies, let his guard down, and shed off some of that willingness to betray and sacrifice others… he was betrayed. and he couldn’t even find it in his heart to resent the person who stabbed him in the back.
and in the end, the man who was willing to sacrifice others willingly let himself be burned alive to save his allies. i think he’s one of the best characters in terms of development.
also, even his ai feeling he would be willing to die for gin :((
speaking of, gin, nao, and kanna really went through so much as the most vulnerable of the group. the shit those three have went through woulda turned any other character into a villian bro.
biggest pet peeve is when people draw greenblings is midori being thrown in. like, there’s two routes artists go and i feel as if they’re both in bad taste.
they exclude kugie, the person who inspired kanna to grow into the person she is today.
or they just throw him into the trio of siblings that could never even be happy/even live knowing of their relation to one another because of his manipulation…
