I've never once made an attempt to puzzle out a mystery game ahead of time. To me the best feeling is being hit with a left hook out of nowhere.

And yet you want a step by step guide for Trails? You truly are an enigma.

Mikan is a character I didn't like while playing, but turned around on a lot after the fact. There's a V3 character that went through the same phases.

I blame fanfiction.

Mikan is fairly popular in the fandom, much more so than the casual DR scene.

D2 spoilers

Just got to the murder. I did say that Byakuya might die early for shock, and that the team leader would die early to avoid having a leader. I'm calling this as a partial victory.

Predicting Teruteru as the killer because he made it from the kitchen to the dining room in the blackout. I'm not 100% sure about that, but I'm sure it'll be brought up, at least. Nagito and Marin are also on my watchlist.

  • I noticed that Akane's shirt has a pin on it. Could be that this is the symbol of the unknown organization Byakuya mentioned.
  • "Moms are strong." This game came out three years after FFXIII's "Moms are tough." Coincidence?
  • I'm sad I didn't figure out Teruteru would be the first killer from the character introductions, but I did get it early on, at least.
  • Found the ruins of what looks like Hope's Peak, probably the school from the first game. Don't yet know how Byakuya and the simulation factor into things.

I always try to figure that out from the characters' introductions in murder mysteries, based on who's the most likely from a storytelling perspective. I'm often wrong, but it's fun to try anyway.

Huh, thanks.

The first time playing the video game, can you press down five times, or does it have to be the second time?

I knew the photographer would die early. Hiyoko and Akane are the obvious suspects. I'm sure it won't be Hiyoko, but Akane has a slight chance. Feel like Nekomaru and Sonia are the most likely.

Overall decent taste
Not perfect, but the best characters are on the top 10 and the worst are at the bottom 10
Just need a little swapping around here and there (like, Chiaki is clear #1. And I am more of a Nagito guy but I can understand Kokichi love too I guess)

Beat chapter 2.

Obviously I was dead wrong about everything, which happens, though I did give Peko a moderate killer chance at the start of the game. She also (attempts to) sacrifice her life for someone else, which obviously maps to Sakura's actions, but in a weird reverse sort of way.

I'm wondering if there will be any intentional murders in this game, I sort of suspect not. Even in the first game, there were only two intentional murders, both of which were part of the same case. Also wondering if anyone is the serial killer; it would probably have to be either Sonia or no one, since they'd have to speak Spanish.

I saw that. But she isn't on the most popular poll at all. Like, not even listed at 0 percent. I counted the characters to make sure I wasn't missing anything, but there's 16 in that poll including Izuru Kamukura separately from Hajime, for some strange reason.

Played through this series this year. It's a wild ride for sure!

I'm in the V3 > DR2 > DR1 camp. Thought 2 was really good but I still think about V3 from time to time and I think that puts it over the edge for me.

Now that Anagram is past Case 2, I can talk about maybe my least-favorite character in the series: Mahiru

I like her design and that she's a more grounded character by Danganronpa standards. The writers blew this headstart by forgetting to give her any sort of likable qualities. Her most standout personality trait is that she simultaneously puts down men and promotes toxic masculinity by telling them to 'man up', which is equally as annoying as the numerous DR characters that treat women like sex objects. I think it's telling that her best friend is Hiyoko, who is an irredeemable asshole.

None of that is even that bad by DR standards (which are not high), but what really gets me is her insane hypocrisy in Case 2. You learn that Mahiru's old friend in school killed Fuyuhiko's sister. Fuyu's sister was an asshole bully, but still, murder is bad folks. Mahiru decides to cover up the incident and try to prevent Fuyuhiko from ever finding out. Then, in Case 2, when Mahiru finds out that Fuyuhiko killed her old school friend in retaliation, she proceeds to soapbox to the guy who's emotionally compromised and freshly grieving over his DEAD SISTER, saying that he shouldn't have taken revenge because revenge is bad. Gee, I wonder why her friend gets special treatment and Fuyuhiko gets lectured? Mahiru's death is one of the only times in the series where I felt no sympathy whatsoever at a character getting offed.
