edl01 said: What, really? I'll admit all I have done is a quick wikipedia search a few weeks ago, however it said the game was only available in Japan and there is a english release planned in early 2014. If there is an English version then could I ask how on earth I could get it? http://danganronpa.wordpress.com/ |
| I'm under the impression that Celes is likely the mastermind behind the two murders. She's awfully suspicious to me. |

As a detective you must keep in mind few things: 1.Dont belive in the appearence 2.Assume the worst 3.Let your instinct lead you. 4.Create a possible scenarios for every evidence you have found , if instinct doesnt help you then the most fitting scenario is the most likely the right one. Eg: Think a possible scenario with every character . Imagine Naegi how would he kill him , hypotethically speaking , would it fit the scenario? Could he move him? Is it possible that he had a complice? Yeah , it could be Kirigiri since she takes a liking in him . This is an example and should be taken as an example. |

| Kind of rushed, and I can't really see the pacing improving in the later episodes. Wonder how they'll fit the trial and investigation in one episode |
 |
| Kiyotaka Ishimaru turns in to a Super Highschool level Super Saiyan...he is now Kiyotaka Ishida...LOL at first, my prediction in this coming episode is no one will gonna die...but i was wrong... the pacing of the story is really fast...i expected that this anime would be so many cuts and the story will be fast-pace and the minor parts would be cut too, but i never expected this much... next episode will be the investigation time and the half part of class trial or they would just speed it up... well....gonna wait for the next episode... xD |
| What I learn from the last 2 trials is that 70% of the evidence shown during the investigation are red herring and most the real shit got shown during the trial. And this trial will most likely be solved by another slip of tongue from the culprit anyway. I'm more intrigued with the photo AE found along with Yamada's last words.Seem like every single one of them knew or connected to each other b4 coming there. |
| Great episode. I'm so happy nothing happened to Celestia <3 |
parvanubis said: - why does Naegi always show up in the ending with the dead ones? and I don't believe it's because he's the MC. i think he is only there because he said at the end of the first trial that he wont forget anyone and move on , so maybe that's why he will always be with the dead remembering them .. or maybe for some other reason that will be revealed later.. << so many things were changed so it can all fit in one ep , and they even removed that one extra scene >< anyways ,I hope that it will be a bit better from next episode , although i guess it wont change much they will do the investigation + trial in one episode .. that and also the end of the chapter >> unless something will be changed/deleted .. .. |

Kafke said: Baku219 said: I'm not really liking this anime adaption all that much but maybe that's only because I've played the VN. It all feels too fast but the anime-only watchers seem to be enjoying it enough. Dunno how they can connect to the characters without free time but I guess it's the best they can do with the 13 episodes. I find there's plenty of time to connect with characters (I haven't played the game btw). At first with all of them alive it was a bit tricky as most of them didn't get screen time. But as of last case and this one, the characters are pretty fleshed out as it is. Not as much as other anime (it's not the point) but still enough to pick favorites and know how they interact with each other. Is the VN really that much better? I'm enjoying the hell out of the anime, even if it is a bit fast (I like fast anime anyway). I think the VN is better because you spend more time with the characters and get more back story with free time. It's more a break between murders so you don't really think of it as a free-for-all but more of your all in this together like Naegi. So, it's more of a surprise when you learn someone killed someone else. As I said before, it's probably because I played the VN after watching the first episode. I probably would've enjoyed it more but the premise seemed interesting and reminded me so much of 999 (a different VN for Nintendo DS), I couldn't resist. One thing I really enjoy no matter what is the character designs (and Monobear <3) |

| I really hated Togami for obvious reasons in the last episode, and his cockiness and over-confident attitude was really getting annoying especially since I felt a little protective over my adorable Chihiro however I really do believe he has the most potential to survive till the end. He's growing to be one of my favorite characters because I really like the way he thinks. I know most people are probably going to be talking about the murder and who the culprit is in this thread primarily...but I kind of already do that in the case threads and I wanted to stop by here and talk about what Togami said about "someone among us is a traitor". Obviously there is no evidence that could point to this "somebody" and I don't know who anyone else in here would choose to be this person but I am suspecting it's kirigi. I don't know why I feel this way but I suppose it's because we've seen a weakness in almost every character so far except for her. Naegi drags the past behind him, the deaths of his friend and trust people too easily, Chihiro, Yamada, Oowada, Ishimaru...the list goes on. But how about Kirigi? We know almost nothing about her, yet these mysterious characters are definitely the most suspicious. I think she's hiding a secret, a secret that she is unwilling to tell anyone. This secret must be that she is the one who is secretly working for Monobear. I know I don't have enough evidence...or support but I can't think of anyone else who would have the job of "monitoring" everyone. She does after all help out with a lot of the cases and her super high school level title or whatever it's called is ???? which we know that she has amazing deduction skills but why would a detective be invited to this kind of a school? This place is literally against the law and a psycho or criminal is behind it so to invite a detective or someone with that talent blows my mind kind of. That's my question, and although I'd like to believe she's innocent, I do feel like she's hiding something and I felt this hunch ever since the beginning. |

parvanubis said: hmmm... I find hagakure very suspicious, he was the only one who looked interested when monobear was talking about the money...and he wasn't really with the rest of the crew, but maybe that's a too simple way of thinking. two things keep bugging me - why does Naegi always show up in the ending with the dead ones? and I don't believe it's because he's the MC - Kirigiri, what do we know about her? even in the opening you see the questionmarks.. I don't trust her... BloodyNightsky said: parvanubis said: BloodyNightsky said: parvanubis said: hmmm...

I don't trust her... I hate to break it to you but no matter how many times you suspect Kirigiri or Makoto , you will be wrong. the two things that were bugging me are things in general, I'm sorry if that was not clear. I don't suspect kirigiri or naegi in this case, but hagakure. I just don't trust them in general, because of allthe mysteries around them (especially kirigiri) Well , at the end of the serie you will be shocked or amazed or astonished or ....pick any synonime of amazed who she actually is. That's where the anime is messing in, cause at this point in the game, most people already suspected who Kirigiri and her skill were (it's quite obvious really) Also, the part in Naegi showing up at the ED with the dead ones must be really cause, a) he's the main character, or b) plot reasons I won't spoil (kinda related to later cases). Small hint for the case: |

Change "school" to "BATTLE TO THE DEATH!" and you might find the answer to life the universe and everything. Either I'm missing the point or you are? Well,what I mean is they were all invited because they're all talented in something(even if some of their talent are strange)Assuming Kirigiri's title is Detective then it's obviously mean she was invited because she has has amazing detective skills so it wasn't strange at all in this case. And detectives are supposed to stay hidden and investigated,it could explained why she want to hide her talent. |
And detectives are supposed to stay hidden and investigated,it could explained why she want to hide her talent. Close but she didnt hide it. It will be revealed , I hope , in the rest of the episodes. |

I don't have much I want to say without spoiling anything. Just posting to show that I did in fact read your post and I understand what you mean. |
BloodyNightsky said: And detectives are supposed to stay hidden and investigated,it could explained why she want to hide her talent. Close but she didnt hide it. It will be revealed , I hope , in the rest of the episodes. Just my gut but I think regardless of the reason or whatever happened,she'd hide it either way.Going around telling people she's a detective in this kind of situation is pretty stupid. |

L.E : @Earl: What I've said in the PM and that she isnt aware of it herself. eh? Well...I'm kind of scared to read the PM to be honest xD haha I hate getting spoiled the most. I still feel like she's suspicious even when you tell me it isn't her...I still find that extra seat in the class trial suspicious and who Monobear was talking to at the end of the last episode.. I'd say what I think about that but...lol I feel like I can't say anything in these discussion thread without being spoiled so I think I'll back out for now xD Thanks for trying to help? :D I'm not going to spoil the entire series, though, because I feel like her secret is the one that will probably be the worst spoil ever. o__o err don't worry I didn't read anything ^^. I learned my lesson of being spoiled plenty of times in other animes...and watching the show knowing what's going to happen is not the most pleasant experience. I regret those days...anyways, I vowed never to try and not get spoiled again, but I guess trying to do that on this thread has proven to be a very difficult task! |
| It isnt a spoiler .....it wont spoil your enjoyment of the anime. It's up to you anyway....I wanted just to clear something because you were running around your own tail , you were there and circle the exact answer , just like a dog hunting his own tail. So , dont go :  Towards my PM . I dont like spoiling , not when I'm aware of and now I'm very well aware. |

I rather sacrifice and have one person get spoiled than potentially spoil the many! |
| So a robot is walking around the school, and has killed Yamada and Ishimaru? Things are starting to go out of whack, it's odd how Kirigiri and Hagakure aren't there, so they must know something about these murders. Also, it sucks that Ishimaru dies once I'm starting to find him epic ;_; There was not a lot of evidence this case though, so it's going to be real tricky... |
 |
| the last part where yamada had his dying words... they left out an important word. i won't say what it is but people who've seen the game play would know what i'm talking about. and i think they've made it a tad bit obvious who the culprit is, if you can catch on. i'm wondering if next week they'll cram both investigation and trial because the trial is really important since there are a lot of mysteries in this case. if they do put both into one episode, it might be really shoddy. either way, they did a fine enough job of adapting the murder. |

Also, it sucks that Ishimaru dies once I'm starting to find him epic ;_; I shall quote Naegi's famous words...Sore wa chigau yo! *cough cough (excuse me on my horrible romanization I only have anime as my background for the japanese language...not much of a help lol) (I don't even think he says it like that but the point I'm trying to say is "it isn't like that"...why I didn't say that in the first place idk xD) That's not a robot. It's a disguise and there's someone in that suit. I didn't play the game but I think it would be pretty safe to assume that inside that transformer looking mecha suit thing is one of the remaining students. |

| What's with the photo? All 3 of them are dead. O.O And what's the meaning of what Yamada said in the near end?, "Before I met everyone, I had already met everyone, hadn't I?" |
| Again i have to point out that the reason it seems "fast paced" is because they arent using the days where what you mostly do is free time events. Also, during the time between the 2 murders is actually pretty fast so this was very well paced in my opinion. They still got the investigation to show and since i doubt it will take up an entire episode, i think it will be half an episode for investigation, half of it for the trail, and finish the trial in episode 8. I think so at least .-. Either way this is my favorite trial of the game so im super excited about this! :D |
| Damn I thought Ishimaru would be the killer. Since the last trial incident. but that went out the window. Since Alter Ego calmed him down. |
| I'm so happy about alter ego! I really missed Fujisaki-chi D': And why is no one disturbed at all by Genocider Syo constantly appearing with her toungue all like blalalalala lmao. I really like Kirigiri, I hope it wasn't her! |
| *facepalm* |
| Not sure what happened. Not my fave ep. :X My suspicions are on Togami and Celes. Poor Ishimaru. He was one of my favourites. Well, I'm off to finish sewing my Monokuma Plushie~ |
| Oh man Ishimaru and Yamada, in just one episode, now 8 people remains. Wonder how the class trial would handle this? |
| This was probably my most anticipated murder case, because the murderer planned the crime extremely well, which makes it really difficult to figure out the truth on your own. |
| I think I know who the murderer is, much more obvious compared to the previous murder case. |
| Though Celes isn't the murderer; she's acting really suspicious. |
 "Only one with the courage to shoulder the burden of their own fate can be called a hero.." |
Peten00b said: Though Celes isn't the murderer; she's acting really suspicious. Yeah, so far she seems my no 1 choice of who's the traitor. Though probably it would be too much obvious so she's just a red herring (?) Also WOW in the last episode I got all bummed out like "man epi 3 made me believe this could be good but epi 5 made me think this could get stale if it stucks in this formula" and then BAM, tons of stuff being tossed all around and we're at lightspeed plot-telling now, that could go great or awful, next episode required to make up my mind. lol |
| Ishimaru was a boss. I'm realy sad he died this early, such a wasted potential. I wasn't really impressed with this episode, but that was to be expected, cause this was my least favorite part of the game. |
| Oh man no ISHIMARU, it's still too early for such a bro to leave us. :( Well at least he went out with a bang, turned into SSJ, and then got killed. Alter Ego stuff was really nice, poor Chihiro. I wonder who's that robot from the picture? Is that the 16th student Monokuma was hanging out with? (lol) Can't wait for next ep. |
 |
Peten00b said: Though Celes isn't the murderer; she's acting really suspicious. Ikr, she's always all cold, and now suddently changing that trait? Legit. She's still my fav char tho. Also, finally that fatso's dead. Yay. |
| Ishimaru :'( Alter Ego <3 |
tingy said: Yeah what was with Ishimaru going super saiyan? That was kind of weird. I like Alter Ego, that's a pretty nifty AI there. Too bad it got stolen, and the two people who weren't the suspects for taking Alter Ego are dead! It's late so I didn't really pay that much attention to the episode so I don't have any guesses as to who is the culprit. I'm looking forward to finding out who (maybe two?) did it! I don't think Naegi or Togami did it, and not Genocider either...hmm probably not Asahina either, or the other two who aren't there. Someone said Cele was acting a tad weird and I thought so too, or maybe we're supposed to think that way??? Not sure how she could've removed the bodies though. I give up lol. Hmm and what's with the "we all met each other before we met each other?" So that photo on the computer was real? They all have their memories altered or something? Good pointing that out that image left me wondering also alot of things ,that and what yamada said before he died also added to the suspicion. No doubt this show needed more episode that pace is really fast but i don't mind that much. |
| Dat beginning scene. Which leads us to Asahina finding Fujisaki's "ghost" or basically Alter Ego, which happens to be an AI program Fujisaki installed into a laptop before he was killed. And in that laptop, there's a photo of Oowada, Leon, and Fujisaki together. Which makes me think that their memories have been altered because of what Yamada said before he died. Yamada and Ishimaru were killed by Justice Robo and his Justice Hammers. They were the two who fought over the laptop, which was stolen by someone. They say there could be a traitor, which fits what happened in the last episode since Monokuma was talking to one of the students. Yamada said the culprit was Yasuhiro, but I think it was Celestia, because she was acting strange and also usually the motive is connected. And since Celestia's the Super High School Level Gambler, it could be her. But then again, she couldn't have possibly carried those dead bodies so quickly. Unless she had some help. I could be over thinking things, but I just had to share my bizarre theories too. Oh well, I hope to find out next week what really happened. |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
| Holy pacing batman! It felt like this entire episode was on fast forward with how much they crammed into 30 minutes... like, the longest shot seemed to last for less than 5 seconds... |
