Idk Why I'm Falling Back Into Danganronpa Out Of Nowhere But As Much As I Dislike The DR Ending And Don't

Idk why I'm falling back into danganronpa out of nowhere but as much as I dislike the DR ending and don't care for the bonus mode in V3/Danganronpa S those Komahina approaches truly made me see shrimp colours. Incredibly funny to barely give the SDR2 cast anything to do in the finale besides save Mitarai's ass but make an effort to show komahina not just getting along but also having Komaeda be the one to reach out to Hinata without self deprecation and being met with excitement back. Paired with that one poster where Komaeda seems to give him a romantic gift. Then you get V3 bonus mode which poses the question "how would Nagito treat Hajime if he knew he was reserve course without the war crimes?". And then every single interaction they have they spend the entire time antagonising each other, mostly Komaeda looking down at him and Hinata taking the most irritated approach to "kill them with kindness" imaginable. But do they dislike eachother? No they're very close friends. They hang out without other people around. In SDR2 pre-chapter 4 the animosity between them was mostly one-sided but now it's mutual. Hajime has made it his mission to befriend the most unapproachable fucked up cat imaginable and Nagito is practically writing him a note saying "get out of my school" to avoid having to wonder why he genuinely likes this talentless boy. They hold hands? Everyone is confused about why they keep hanging out and they're just like "we're friends????? Obviously??? Don't be dumb"

Fully convinced post-OVA the main reason they grow close again is because on one side, Hajime was so persistent with his almost competitive way of showing Nagito he understands him (and is planning to stick around) VS. Nagito suddenly being the one classmate who keeps him humble and doesn't treat him like a God (while undeniably preferring the real Hajime, even though people would assume he would cling to the Izuru side). They're childish and overly competitive with each other and get on each other's nerves but they also understand each other better than anymore else and give each other the love and care they missed previously in their lives
