Final thoughts and musing before moving on to a hopefully better Case 3:
Ok. First thing. Why the hell was Peko so wet? I get that she washed herself off. But the timeline here is crazy. She kills Mahiru and has Fuyuhiko run off at like 2:30. She washes off in the shower. She hides in the surfboard case and waits for Hiyoko to wake up. Hiyoko runs off. She finishes setting up the crime scene and escapes through the window. She walks over to the diner. I think this happens at like 3. That is half an hour. I'd get her hair being wet, but the picture they kept showing had her entirely drenched. Like there was water coating her body. HOW MUCH WATER DID YOU USE.

Was she completely nude during the murder? It is Danganronpa so I mean yeah I could see it, but if she got blood on her swimsuit, I cannot imagine that would come off with just bottles of water. Have you ever tried to get a blood stain out of something? Peko was clearly hiding some detergent somewhere too.

Fuyuhiko is now above the ranks of complete trash for me. The ending here really was excellent and I don't quite hate him as much as I did going in.

I don't quite know where to rank this one yet. Like up until the end this was easily my least favorite case in the entire series. I loved the Porky's style shenanagins with Kazuichi and Hajime and that whole set up was fun. The ending was great and Fuyuhiko and Peko crying hit hard. That execution scene was excellent. But the case itself was...kinda dumb? Peko's plan...er Fuyuhiko's plan...er...whatever that was just doesn't make a lot of sense. The whole Twilight Mystery aside was awful and I hated it. The trial was kind of a mess, and like I said I feel like half of the segments were obvious multiple choice questions. And the motive was the worst in the series by a mile and was basically a motive for literally one person. That isn't fun and Monokuma needs to do better. Lot of ups and downs on this one.

One final thing about the murder from the past. Did they explain what the hell happened and I just wasn't paying attention or was this whole thing kind of a mess? The window and fish tank are both broken, but that wasn't the breaking noise they heard? Sure ok so the vase was the distraction I get that. But why was the window broken? Why was the fish tank broken? Why didn't any one hear that but they heard the vase? Did Girl E break the fish tank to get the gravel?

And also A SWIMSUIT FULL OF GRAVEL WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? She choked a girl to the point of unconsciousness, but then was like "oh no I have to kill her now better stop asphyxiating her (which is working) and fill this swimsuit full of gravel because it is the most logical choice for a bludgeoning object"? What kind of absolute nonsense is that? I'm on board for nonsense in this series, but this isn't fun nonsense.

I don't have exact ranking right now, but so far 1-1>2-1 and 1-2>2-2. What is saving the game for me so far is the characters, who are leagues better than the first game, and I still like nonstop debates even if this case wasn't always a great example of them. Agreeing with statements and pulling out statements to use as clues both have a lot of potential (as does logic drive, honestly) so I'm hoping things get better from here!
