Topic	Jeff Zero & Leonhart in Different Houses: Trails of Arcadia Edition [JZLF]
xp1337 10/13/17 10:52:18 PM #297:	Mac Arrowny posted... Post theories? Also I'm pretty sure there aren't any smart characters in DRv3, except maybe Kaede... LeonhartFour posted... oh great let's fill the topic with black bars of stuff I have to avoid like we did when Trails the 3rd was flying around here What Leon said is why I didn't. I briefly debated with myself whether to bring DRV3 playthrough comments here and decided that I'd try to only talk in vague stuff like "Well I'm in Chapter # now" and probably only as a sidenote in other posts since it'd be weird to make a post saying that. That said, I suppose I'll make an exception just this once: (DRV3 Chapter 1 Spoilers + Speculation on my part based on it): Seemingly no one has picked up on how Monokuma's time limit motive is in violation of his own rules that Monokuma will never directly cause a death. At first I was just disappointed the group let that pass when Monokuma was in the room with them, again, I feel like Nagito or Chiaki would catch that and press him on it. Then when Shuichi pulled Kaede aside to tell her that Monokuma's wording with regard to "only those forced to participate" would be punished if the time limit hit I just got frustrated that he picked up on that but not the fact that if Monokuma was such a stickler for the rules as he suggests that his punishment in general can't happen! Ironically though Shuichi picking up on that resolved my own confusion. I'm guessing he's half-right here and that while Monokuma did word it that way to create an exception class, it's literally everyone. It's going to turn out that everyone volunteered to be here and so Monokuma's "threat" is completely harmless, but since no one actually realizes that they're going to end up doing what he wants. Combined with the brief image of Kaede wearing some helmet, which made me wonder if we were going VR again, as well as the whole "Ultimate Hunt" brought up in the beginning and again by Rantaro, plus the name of the academy I'm wondering if Ultimates are being persecuted or whatnot and they entered this freely for whatever reason. Even if that's wrong, I'm confident about the "Monokuma is intentionally issuing a harmless threat to get things going because everyone ends up fitting his exception case" bit. Especially since if he wanted to loophole this, the regulations are inexplicably quiet on the ability of the Monokubs to interfere directly, they only prohibit action by (and against) Monokuma himself. So intentionally phrasing it in a way that defies his rules has to be on purpose. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:888395026] in Jeff Zero ...
