Naruto Is Fucking Insane Bc As Someone Who's Never Actually Watched The Anime, I'll Have Just THE Gayest

love when i look up a song i used to listen to exclusively via anime amv music videos and the official video is the cheesiest shit i've ever seen

Firstly so sorry for the graphic image. I found this on the Danganronpa reddit. Also MAJOR DANGANRONPA V3 SPOILERS.

I feel like this very crudely drawn image of Kokichi’s dead crushed up corpse is the last piece I needed to fully accept his death.

Not being able to see the state of the body during the investigation, created a barrier for me to fully understand Kokichi’s exit out of the main story. It just felt like he “left” rather than died.

Additionally, none of the characters saw the dead body and that definitely had an impact on their attitude towards him. His death was brushed off because they also never got to see his dead body. Maki didn’t investigate the body and such. There was no opportunity to be traumatized but ample to refuel their hatred towards him. Remember when Nagito’s body was found? The characters wouldn’t stop talking about the stab wound and the spear. The graphic depictions of Nagito stabbing himself added to the nightmare fuel situation. Like SOMEONE did that to his body vibe. In this trial, that wasn’t discussed in a manner that resembled 2-5. Not being able to see the graphic nature of a body being crushed flat means the characters can avoid it. Again, put yourself in the situation you felt when you initially saw Kokichi’s death. Seeing his crushed body would absolutely impact your experience because it’s like DANG, WHO DID THIS?! Did he really deserve a death like that? And so on.

This is why his absence during the class trial wasn’t discussed to its extent such as with other characters. Imagine seeing the body and then going to the trial where the exisal was talking in his voice. It would be SUPER weird. LIKE I SAW HIS CRUSHED BONES AND ORGANS OUT ON THAT PRESS AND NOW IM HEARING HIS VOICE? I know for some people, not seeing the body meant that maybe both Kaito and Kokichi were alive and that they used another body to substitute a killing. After Monokuma revealed that it wasn’t possible to do so, I don’t remember anyone who acknowledged the body afterwards due to how the trial was going.

I’m no Kokichi Stan but I did warm up to his character pre-chapter 4. I always felt that his death and trial were lackluster and lacked needed impact. Personally, I thought the trial wasn’t very good but seeing a depiction of the body has changed my opinion on the trial.

Kaito also never saw Kokichi afterwards because he never lifted the press after it crushed him. Kaito doesn’t really have to carry the weight of the plan and his actions, because he never gets to see the honest result of them. Therefore, he was able to focus on the plan to foul Monokuma and stick to the script that a dead boy wrote. Personally, my entire view on Kaito would drastically change more if we both saw the state of the body. Like learning that Kaito killed Kokichi in the most violent way possible. This is no stab to the neck or strangulation where a character might crack a joke (throwback to Ryoma, Miu and even Nagito). I remember thinking that their plan failed because the gang ended up figuring out their scheme and there is a viewpoint that Kokichi’s plan failed. If it did, he died for nothing and in the most violently unnecessarily way possible too.

Danganronpa V3 had many victims where the remaining cast had a short mourning period for (Rantaro, Ryoma and Miu). Each student had different circumstances where the cast couldn’t comment too much on their dead peers. Rantaro distanced himself from others, and no one was particular close to Ryoma or Miu.

However, Kokichi was one where almost no one mourned his death.

It’s interesting for sure. I think more people mourned the losses of the culprits more than the victims.

Anyways - I recommend reviewing 3-5 again and seeing this image somewhere during the investigation. I promise, my opinion on 3-5 drastically improved afterwards.

“Why are you so obsessed with getting in my way?!”

-“Because…you’re my friend.”

Rebirth Date Spoilers

Yall if you got the Tifa date in chapter 12 - you’re gonna be pissed about what happens in chapter 13 and 14.

On a serious note, people have been so disingenuous about the Aerith vs Tifa dates. Both sides cherry picked specific lines from their respective date scenes to prove one side over another. When you look at the whole thing, it’s more complicated than that.

Additionally, if you’re purposefully rude to one girl during your gameplay because you hate the character, then I don’t think the outcome you got was the “intended” canon.

Cloud likes both girls and no, he wouldn’t treat one girl worse than the other “canonically” - you the player made it that way. The outcome that you got from doing that is what you wanted and that’s fine because it’s your play through of it - but it doesn’t mean it’s “canon” or else you will be so surprised in the last two chapters when Cloud gets a lot of screen time with one girl over the other.

I don’t mean this as just a dig at Tifa fans but I think her fans are more aggressive than Aerith fans, just from some peoples reactions to chapters 13 and 14.

happy pride :)

I thought they both secretly liked each other when I played the game lol

Confession: I like Kokichi x Himiko. There I said it.

I just saw portions of the Aerith gold saucer date.

All I have to say is that it made me tear up, and I kinda wanna cry the more I think about it.

It’s hard to describe in words how I felt when I saw the date and the context behind everything in that date, but it was very intimate and I like the direction that it went.

Tifa’s date is so spectacular and out there but Aerith’s is so quiet. Tifa’s is like the climax of a Hollywood movie and Aerith’s I swear reminds me of those indie movies like 100 days of Summer or Lost in Translation but way more intimate. They both work in their own unique ways.

Both of them are very intimate in their own unique ways but something about Aerith’s date makes me wanna cry. It’s all about, what it could have been. They mean so much to each other but Aerith won’t say anything. She will accept the path in which she plays into Cloud’s future. If you know, you know.

That’s all I’m going to say. Don’t come for me, I like both main ships - I like both of them for different reasons.

Games’ over

Evil mom is dead and brothers reunited with stepsister and dog

FFXVI "You're alive. We both are. Nothing else matters."

very true!

Clives new outfit was literally a size or two too small and realistically, it would have ripped at some point. I just need fanart of the seams of his top coming off in a middle.

I need to see his nude model

I use to think Vaan (Dissidia games) or Firion were great but Clive is clearly the most attractive.

No malicious intent cuz I’m ace yall - I just like looking at his body

Also it seems he has a huge butt too which is rare for video game dudes lol
