So, I'm a huge fan of the visual novel this anime is based on, and I just started watching the show. It's a murder mystery, basically. The antagonist decides to recreate a murder mystery novel by trapping 15 students in a school, and the only way to escape is to murder another student and get away with it. Granted, the main character is a bit of a dull piece of shit, but the supporting cast are what make it so interesting to me. Especially Kyoko. >_>

 

Anyone?

 

Also, the game (and its sequel) are by the people who did Virtue's Last Reward and 9/9/9.

I love Danganronpa! For the longest time I was using Nanami Chiaki from the second game as my signature here. It's fun and really well made, the twists are really hard to see coming. I love the Phoenix Wright games so this was right up my alley.

Some of the twists are really confusing. I wasn't at all expecting

I still think Byakuya will turn out to be an absolute prick though >_>

ok this game is pretty good. Got past the 1st murder and jury. 

 

However the stupid shotgun/last minute confession/shutupshutup moment was confusing as fuck. I randomly starting tapping the touch screen and miraculously I passed. 

 

Nice twists and turns. Can't wait to play more. I'll preorder the 2nd game once I buy Majora's mask :)

The sequel game has been out for ages :P

 

I haven't bought it yet though, I plan on 100%ing the original first. Gonna be kinda tough, mostly due to a bunch of trophies requiring multiple playthroughs >_>

 

Also, I feel like failing the class courts just to see what happens if you do.

LOL Wait, yeah it is. CHUR!!! It's only $40. THAT'S ME BOI!!!!!!

 

Haha I did so bad in court I almost lost it a few times. I'm pretty sure the game was being really generous and lenient towards my failures by providing me with an extra heart. 

 

Not to mention smashing their statements at the wrong times. Man I suck at this game.

So I see. Still a rip off at $35. Besides, I like physical copies. That way they can decorate my shelving and gather dust.

 

I scored the 1st 1 for $40, so I'm going to wait til the 2nd one does the same. 

 

So far I've only just made it through the 2nd court session. So far my fav girl hasn't been murdered yet. :) 

 

Celeste? i think that's her name.

Ok just finished the 3rd court session......

 

...... fuck........ lol. Welll at least Hina is still....... yeah.... lol

 

Just realized I'm really shit at the debate mechanics.  

 

Triangle to memorize the key phrases, rebuttal, sacrifice a goat, summon Dumbledore, DEFEAT THE 7 HORCRUXES...... FUCCKKKKKK!!!! Confusing.... 

 

The events leading up to the 3rd session we're really obvious tho, could see the killer a mile away. 

 

But oh well, still really interesting at this point. 

 

Can't wait to see who kicks the bucket next.

Yeah sometimes it's difficult to know what to choose haha. Phoenix Wright is really similar.

Finally finished the 1st one the other day. I liked it. Still sucked in court, but managed to fluke the identity of the mastermind in the final hearing.

 

Very interesting. I think I got the good ending coz I choose to help out the bro.

 

Well time to save up for the 2nd game :)
