I think that the first game character who's going to die Kirigiri or Togami. Both are quite important targets in universe. Togami is an important FF member, and Kirigiri is very close to the ultimate hope.

There's a third, semi likely, possibility. Hagakure is the mastermind, and Monoka thinks he'll die because he's the mastermind.
I said semi likely because, especially in Ultra Despair Hagakure, his personality seems genuine.
Still, I could totally see him be like 'Yeah, I've been smart and evil this whole time'

Who knows? It might be that in the end no one of the first year will die. Or two of them.
This is Kodaka afterall.

i loved that episode. i loved Ultra Despair Girls and getting to see the conclusion to that was so rewarding. All the Warriors of Hope are still around and i loved seeing that NEET Monaca cuz she so adorbs and crazy af :3

either way omg, revealing Monaca as a side character was kinda expected, but she is so complex, it makes sense they wouldn't make it so easy for her to be the big bad. what i'm most interested in is that Monaca is literally acting just like Nanami with the hood and everything and that's strange to me. did Nagito like tell her about Chiaki or is Chiaki actually still alive compared to how everyone thought she wasn't or is it just coincidence that she's playing like the same game as Nanami was playing or something? tho there's rarely coincidences in this series i'd think.

honestly, now i'm feeling that Kodaka is pointing to us that it's possible Nanami also fell to despair and could maybe be the mastermind? like she's pretty popular char from SDR2 iirc, i'd feel everyone would feel the despair if she was truly the mastermind. but still.... idk anything anymore @___@ she could just be dead and i'm just reaching lmfao. eh money's still on Juzo, but still i got so many theories popping in my head that get debunked with like each episode anyways lol.

anyways with Monaca's words, i'm curious to see which of the originals will die. i think i'd be least affected if Hagakure died, but i doubt they'd kill off him. Toko's safe, but Byakuya and Kyoko are so important, that it's possible they're gonna be the ones. pls don't kill the originals tho.... i like them too much ;~;

This was a pretty hype episode...
Also, it didn't look like it, but Komaru did tell Naegi that the one they spoke with was an imposter... Probably implying she told Naegi that Miaya is fake. But i guess he was more absorbed by the fact that one of the original cast (The survivors of the mutal killing game) is going to die...
Munakata, if you touch Kirigiri, you're going to have a bad time.

Also... Where's Juzo? He haven't appeard in this nor the previous episode...

LOL! Monaka is so amusing. She's the best. She got tired of Nagito and just give up and be a NEET.

Also, seems like her name is spelled as Monaka not Monaca.

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Just wanted to chip in and say real quick that lol. This is basically the second time both Monaca and Kodaka trolled us, and I honestly like it. As much as I've watched lately (which isn't really many), I don't remember any other anime that does this sort of thing in a long time, to be honest, minus OPM I suppose. Seems like it's the last time, though, since Monaca left Earth and all. Was pretty entertaining to me while it lasted.

She should have the title of being Ultimate Troll.

she didnt killed him and the room is locked from the inside. Im going to have this feeling, there is going to be a huge twist in the next episode regarding the room they all wake up in before monokuma appearance and that lock room murder.

Literally only things I cared about in this episode were Naegi seeing his sister again and Monaca's revelation that someone from the original show is going to die. Mind you, with how much this episode was a blatant troll, I very much find myself doubting the legitimacy of that claim, especially when Monaca supposedly somehow knows who it is who will die, which doesn't make even a modicum of sense.

I really really like Danganronpa. Man Komarou is more badass being able to take on those Monokumas unlike Naegi who always gets protected...

I think the killer wants to get Naegi on despair side. If someone close to him died and he is the reason for that death, it will be sure to make Naegi despair

Toko's fantasy is hella funny too XD

I just saw the episode. It is a strong one, not the best, but a very satisfying one as a middle-of-the-road 'filler'. Of course, if you didn't play Ultra Despair Girls, you won't really enjoy it.

I'm pretty convinced now that what Monaka was talking about was not Kirigiri ending up killed my Munakata. Besides the fact that it's made way too obvious by the anime, there are also logical reasons to exclude this possibility. The main one being: Munakata is dead set on getting rid of every single person who was supportive of Naegi. He seemingly has no reason to target a specific person; he's ready to kill Naegi, Asahina AND Kirigiri. That does not point to a specific individual, unlike Monaka's revelation which was very particular about "one" 78th class former student being the one who's going to die.

The only way it would make sense is if Munakata's goal changed when he heard Tengan's deduction on who the attacker is, and Monaka somehow heard of it through hacking and then was able to read Munakata's mind (because he confidently said that he would not change his plans because of it).

It seems very unlikely to me.

I'm so glad we got an Ultra Despair Girls episode, it was absolutely amazing. All the interactions between Fukawa and Komaru were wonderful and I loved Toko's little delusion about Byakuya. The absolute greatest thing about this episode though... Was of course MONAKA. I absolutely love what they did with her character, it was really a joy to watch. Love the fact she was messing with Naegi just because she was bored xD
I think Monaka is possibly my 4th favorite DR character now definitely gonna have to find a nice pic of her to use as my avi. When she just gave up it seriously killed me, but the best part has to be when we found out her reason for giving up was because she didn't want to become the same as Komaeda. There's just so many amazing points about her character now, characters who are so tired of life they can't even be bothered to lie or sugar coat things anymore and just say whatever happens to be on their mind always go down well with me but I like Monaka especially. Gonna stop talking about her now to avoid my post becoming way way wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too long. Let's just hope this isn't the last we see of her.

My second fave character Fukawa had great moments as well and I really liked it when she said "I wonder how long it will take her to realize that doing nothing only leads to despair". But she was definitely out shined by the new and improved NEET Monaka.

A lot of interesting things were brought up this episode. Nice try baiting us by having Munakata approach Kirigiri with a sword but it's obvious that the one Naegi is supposedly going to get killed is Togami after all it's because of Naegi that he's been sent to the island of the despairs. I still hope that it's not Hajime and the others behind this but from the looks of things this episode they're definitely hinting that's the case.

I knew it! Something did feel off about Monaka, she doesn't give the main villian aura. At least not in this story. With this, I really do like her. Even tho she's more of a bad person. Like how she got done with Komaeda, would 100% do the same.

So someone from the original game will die... Hagakure isn't dying, he got -10% importance. Like. he's so bland, it isn't even fun.
I feel like Asahina will die... It'll make me really sad tho, I don't want to see her die of all people. I don't wanna see Kirigiri die either. If Naegi himself dies tho, Idc.

I just realised that no matter who dies next episode, it's a lose-lose situation for the fans, because it's going to be someone from the 78th class who dies, someone who we've been with since the very beginning of the series and that we all love.

Like Asahina said; I think we can safely cross Byakuya, Hagakure and Toko out of this equation since they are on the outside, leaving Asahina and Kyoko to be the next ones to kick the bucket.

But how will one of them die? Will Munakata kill Kirigiri which looks like he's about to? Will one of them sacrifice their life for Naegi? Or maybe... Will Naegi wake up as the attacker and be forced to kill one of them? That is, if the fans are right about Tengan saying "The Attacker Alternates" if that's true, it's going to catch up to Naegi at some point.

You know, since Monaka doesn't control RoboMiaya anymore, Naegi can have a very powerful ally on his side if his sister take control. Being a robot, it won't fall asleep and can move during the killing time. Plus, missiles and shit.

Its funny that no one can stand Nagito.

lmao Bless Monaca's precious soul. Getting so annoyed at Nagito to the point of giving up on hope and despair (no one likes Nagito. lol), and for being such a lurking troll. That actually got me chuckling.

Anyways, very worried about the characters we knew from the very first game/anime. It'd hurt if any of them died on me, including Hagakure (though I think he'll probably be fine), and I really wouldn't want to see dear Naegi in such despair because of that, especially since it will apparently be him that causes it. I swear if that is Munakata and he is going to harm Kirigiri, he really needs to be offed. I wouldn't care much anymore.

Oh, and yes. What about Jabberock Island? Whether it gets to that or how we'll see the game continuing for the Future Foundation, I'm excited as usual.

If Hagakure dies, I wouldn't care, if Hina dies, I'd be a little sad, if Toko or Byakuya dies I will cry manly tears and if Kyouko dies, I'm gonna need loads of buckets.

I loved this episode. It wasn't what I was expecting for now, but I still loved it. At least some things were explained (although I still wish an explanation of how the --DR:AE spoiler--
) Monaka is seriously one of the best characters, no doubt about it at all.

And this episode has some really nice and cool references out there. The Chibi Maruko-chan and I wonder if Monaka herself being a NEET wasn't a reference to Himouto Umaru-chan, since she was also using a hood.

But the most funny reference was of Utena:



I wonder if we'll see more of Miaya in Zetsubou-hen later, though. She is pretty important, considering her role.

Okay this episode was basiclly pure fanservice for teh UltradespairGirls fans.
You could say...........this is just ANOTHER EPISODE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH~

But to be honest. It was obvious that Monaca is not the mastermind. Well that she was just a spectator was suprising.
I mean that Komaeda really done something good and got Monaca to the point of being sick of this Hope/Despair bullshit was funny as fuck. But also a really good argument.^^
I mean come on he is a creepy/annoying bastard after all.
Still that Monaca goes full space is something else.
Also could this mean Naegi is the attacker? Because of him someone from the old cast or DR2 cast will die? Well shit happens.
Either way for the crazy Animeception theory ther was a 4th wall break again.
Well at this point i guess Mitarai, Edgelord of the edge and Naegi could be the mastermind.

I am still confused about the OP. Did you guys see it.
The pictures are more an more visiable than ever and you can see sooo much stuff going on in the OP. Also.....interesting thing. All characters on the possible dead scene side where black. Everyone was black. This is the first time this happened.


Last note. I am somewhat disapointed. Monaca killed many people also poor Miaya. And no conclusion to that -_-.
Its not like i want her to die but she is did kill a lot of people.
Well.............to be honest i enjoyed this episode but it felt like a filler to me for the Jabberwock island grand battle.

Welp whatever hyped for..................................another episode HAHAHAHAHAH of DR3 Mirai-hen.....ah i love it.

As always sorry for my bad grammar and thanks for reading.

nah. Monaka playing games with hood doesn't have anything to do with Nanami
It's just referrene to Umaru from anime Himouto Umaru-chan. her Monokuma hoodie similiar with Hamster hoodie Umaru usually wear

as for Class of 78th that likely will die my vote is either Kirigiri or Byakuya
Hagakure is too irrelevant and his death won't make any fans sad.

whil i felt dissapointed with Monaca decision to give up. i kinda understand what she thinking. imagine if you are being Monaca and have to listen to Komaeda's bullshit about Hope and despair on daily basis. anyonw will get sick of it for sure

Well I think traitor is either Juzo or Munakata Though now that Monoca is not behind any of the killing except for killing gekkogahara The question ask again who controls monokuma Is it the traitor or another traitor in the future foundation.

My guess The traitor is Munkata or Juzo and the one controls Monokuma is another future foundation traitor maybe who knows.

Well Its good I got annoy when with Monoca first half of episode but later I find her funny and entertaining Like it when she say I stop thinking and doesn t care about Hope vs despair.

I am happy Monoca just throw Junko and Nagito stupid ideals and speeches to the dirt

Overall Very good Episode 9/10

If Kirigiri dies I would quit until Traitor dies Next episode will tell who traitor is

Reading everyones comments, I think we can all agree that was a very...nostalgic episode with quite...an interesting turn of events. I really enjoyed all the Danganronpa Another throwbacks, and seeing the adorable Nagisa along with the other Warriors of Hope made me feel so happy. It really has been quite a long time. Nothing that new has been established, one could definitely point out, but now we know for sure that Monaca is not the mastermind (which is what many of us suspected either way) and doesn't seem to have to do with the final killing game. Likewise, we have information from Monaka that someone is going to die, and that Naegi is going to be the reason this person dies. Which is new information for us, and it is actually this piece of information that is a good starting point to figure out exactly what purpose the final killing game serves, and who is behind this killing game. I think it's not very obvious at this point, however there definitely are some vague leads.

First of all, how Monaca is so certain of this information is very questionable. Of couse, we see that she interacts with Naegi and Asahina the most, and it's almost like her last desperate attempt to see the people who defeated Junko. She, however, did it to 'play along' since she's now convinced that even if she does try to spread despair (since this is all fun and amusing to her), it really is no fun since there's always hope. This is a thought taught to her and instilled in her by Komaeda, who we thought trained her to be the next Junko.

I think this is a rather interesting fact we can't gloss over. Of course, whether or not Monaka is actually a NEET and not kidding is still questionable at this point, however she literally blasted off into space and left the robot. So, yup seems like she really didn't care enough to see the ending cause she already knew it.The fact that Monaka is super positive about what's going to happen in the game leads me to believe that someone must have told her of this plan...someone who devised this plan. Also, obviously, most of the game's events have been planned out. There are a few names I can pull out, however it could only be speculation without evidence.

Next, there is also another observation that I would like to just point out concerning the events that have happened in the final killing game so far. So far, the victims of the killing game have been people that we would consider to probably be good-natured people who did not desere to die at all. There is Chisa who wants nothing but ultimate hope to spread in the future foundation, Great Gozu who defends Naegi's ideals of hope and is a peace instigator, Seiko, who is kind-hearted and really just wanted to have Ruruka recipricate her feelings and become friends again. All of them, I would argue, were victims that sort of shared that in common. Following this sort of pattern, it's rather strange how some people in the main cast have not been targeted yet. Of course, the most obvious person who has plot armor being Naegi. The next person who's going to be targeted is from his class, and you can't help but think for what purpose have all these deaths been for.

Munakata has fallen into despair, quite visibly I would argue, throughout the span of the past few episodes (and really since Chisa's death). Naegi, is still aimlessly trying to escape without a clue really why this game is happening. Monaca reveals information that Naegi is going to kill someone close to him. It really does seem like all the hope is being eliminated, to create ultimate despair...on purpose.

^ Also, an add-on (sorry for the essay LOLL)

There's the question of who are the likely candidates for this plan? And for what purpose? The first person that came to mind for me is Komaeda, who really is the only one who shares this crazy, fanatic view of hope where he actually believes that from despair, the worst despair, great hope can be born. His views are very, very extreme yet we see that Monaca actually repeated words that Komaeda would say about there always being hope in the end. Similarly...my sister and I watched the episode together and she pointed out that once Monaca said something along the lines of "Oh...it's pointless. Hope is going to win in the end anyways" or something of that sort. She pointed out how it resembles something Izuru would say, which is an interesting observation. It might not be completely true, without evidence, however it really is Komaeda's belief that hope will win in the end. So,tThis leads the possibility of the mastermind being members of the remnants of despair (komaeda? Izuru?) on the island, however it is strange that Togami received a report that there has been no activity on the island. This would rule out the remnants of despair as being the mastermind, but we never know...this is Danganronpa after all.

Then there's...Ryota Mitarai. I really did not want to believe that he is evil...since he did have an interaction with Junko and she can mess anyone up, however he is suspicious for one big reason I will note later. I suspected that last despair episode Junko tried to 'recruit' him...but the imposter later takes his place. But the imposter actually imposes as Togami later on, and Junko would definitely notice how different Ryota and the Imposter are from each other.

Their meeting was more dramatic than the meeting between Naegi + Junko...and literally Naegi was the reason Junko died. That's interesting, and it's not 100% factual. It's obviously biased since Ryota made the despair arc anime. For what reason could Ryota plan this final killing game? He always talked about how he wants to be hope to everyone, give hope to others like Naegi, however something leads me to believe that he is waiting for something to happen in the game. Could it be that he is waiting for both Naegi and Munakata to fall into despair, so he can take their place as the 'actual' hope? The last shinging ray of hope? Is he manipulating this situation for some other purpose?

The anime (despair arc) holds a similar pattern where in both arcs now we are 'waiting' for despair to happen. For the remnants of despair to fall, and for the futre foundation to turn into a complete mess as we 'anticipate' naegi turning mad after killing someone, and munakata just being the crazy lunatic he is (LOL NO SHADE) and everything falling into despair. I can't help but see this similar pattern in both arcs and wonder...this will obviously not turn out as we want. Kodaka is a visionary, who probably intends to leave the viewers with something to hold on at the end, rather than mass destruction. I can't help but wonder what all of what's happening means.

This ep was friggin hilarious. Too many scenes to count

Komaru's cute. She sure has some nice curves :L And the yuri ship with Touko is toooo real. Loved her pout when Shou told her she's gotten fatter

Touko's fantasy about Togami and his reaction were way too hilarious

The MVP is definitely Monaca tho. She's so much <3 Her faces, her voice, her personality. I love her so much. Fav scene other than Hitler was the potato chips and the "Google it shitlord" Lol'd so much at her giving up after getting bored from all the hope and despair lectures Komaeda gave her ROFL. Go be a space NEET my girl.

For those who think that the figure at the end is Munakata I suggest to remember a scene from episode 6. Munakata stabbed Chisa with his sword and left the room, he dosn't have a sword anymore, so he can't be the figure at the end of this episode. Going for exclusion the only possibility is that it's Sakakura. His restriction is to not punch, so a weapon would be perfect for him. The fact that he took the sword from Chisa body could also heavily imply that he is in fact the traitor.
Sorry for my english, I guess you might found some errors in there

As someone who didn't play Ultra Despair Girls... I'm glad that this episode came out.
It pretty much gives me what I need. Monaka characterization.
Now I can understand her role in this, her motivation and even her habits.
Giving Neagi sister internal monologue at beginning was also good move, since it helped in her characterization.

I don't think he got to grab a sword, when he does have another weapon(the one from Tengan). I don't remember where Izayoi body was found, but if it was in the library that would prevent anyone from taking the sword since Kyoko is investigating.(if the body was found there then she might use the sword to defend herself)

@EarlCiel

I always tought the Warriors of Hope were all dead. Expect Kotoko...or Kotoro? You know who i mean the girl with pink hair.

About her information that it is Naegis fault.....well she could watch everything from her base and the robot also she could hack the cameras with ease. And that this entire game resovles around "Naegi" as the "Ulitmate Hope" vs "The last bit of Ultimate Despair" is somewhat important to the kontext of this mastermind mystery.
Because what we saw is that Naegi is not really doing anything and as Munakata said. Naegi`s victory over Junko Enishima was only possible because on one part it was a game with rule`s that made it somewhat 50:50 and also because Junko wanted to experience the final taste of despair. The despair before getting killed.
So it makes really sense that in a "real" situaton outside a game he would be useless because ther are no rules. He is nothing special even with his "Luck".
And we also saw him in despair really really fast because of Tengan and (oh the irony) because Monaca made this speech he would regain hope. It was really patethic^^.

It is also interesting to see how she would just be like "Screw everything i am out of this shit" mentality. We never really know how much Junko could manipulate her. After all we know Monaca never really cared about despair all that much. All she ever wanted was affection, love, being praised for her genius. Everything that she never got from her dad or any other family. So the time she met Junko she didnt really need to be a despair perse. I mean she stated Junko was the first person ever that gave her everything she wanted. Affection and acknowledgement over her genius in regards of hardware/software and robots.
And than she try`s to imitate her not really because she liked her ideology. More like she saw how she gained everything she ever wanted with her personality. She was basiclly worshipped like a goddness^^^
And we saw Monaca had no one really at this point. She was "raised" by Komaeda and his crazy idear of Hope will win because Despair will create the Ultimate Hope!. Ofc she would be bored annoyed by this. And the best example is Junko "killed" by Naegi.
So yeah i think she never really was into Despair because i assume Junko never did manipulate her that much as the 77th class.

The point about the "good guys" die first is really interesting. Could also explain the monoknife in the hearth. Becuase those people were people with a "hearth" if you know what i mean emotion thingy and stuff.
And Munakatas view is also interesting. I mean he literaly says sacrifice everything for the sake of hope even the "hearth" because he would kill as many as he needs to defeat the despair`s. So there is that.

Yeah i agree the whole nobody from the old cast died so far is strange. I mean you would assume (i did) that early on they would kill Hagakure or Aoi to show us nobody is safe. But the troll card from Kodaka was played as always and it did not happen at this point.
IT IS REALLY STRANGE. I still think everyone will die but no hint`s for a outcome like this so far.

Whatever Kodakas goal is with this story and the "end" meaning of the story. The big picture. I have no clue. The whole Mitarai thing is still a mindfuck for me and third time is the magical number for AI Junko is also a somewhat lame option.

Yeah it is possible after all Komaedas insane Luck is always there. Also the Izuru thing is still in air if he planned everything or it is just the combination between Hinata & Izuru we all assumed in the end epiloge of DR2.
And the weirdest thing is you would assume there is some sort of shit going on at Jabberwock. We saw the armada and Togami preparing his rescue corps for Naegi happened at the same time.
So we got ANOTHER EPISODE (:D:D:D:D:D:D) and Togami on the way to Naegi. BUT no info at all on Hinatas side. Because you would assume there is some sort of grand battle going on between the battelships and the RoD aka our DR2 cast aka the one man who will woop some ass Hinata Kamukura.
So yeah wtf is going on on. Either way they would get a report if they battelships were defeated or the other way the battelships destroyed the island. But nothing?!? KINDA STRANGE

Mitarai my boy.....i really like this line of thought/reasoning.
As you said it is the most important scene so far in the Despair Anime we never expected to happen. And that Mitarai of all was the FIRST of the 77th class to meet Junko is also something^^.

At this point the most likely theory`s are
Nagei or Kirigri have a sleeping Junko AI in them and are the attackers. 35 % possibility
Munakata on the edge of edgy despair being the masterdork 45%
Mitarai my boy being.......whatever it may be 50 %
Animeception Kodakas Ultimate Troll 68 %
The random plottwist nobody expected 99 %
What is even going on this is true despair 1%

As always thank you for reading and sorry for my bad grammar.

Episode was really nice fanservice for those who played Despair Girls.

Monoka's become the ultimate NEET. She has a great smile too. Lol at her going into space.

And that feeling when you notice how many top seiyuus are actually in the franchise, albeit some died early.

Wait... I thought the rest of the warriors of hope were dead? I don't get it

Lmao, that Fukawa x Togami scene was hilarious, they were dirtier in the game though.

Monoka got tired of being Junko 2.0 and became a NEET shitlord instead, good on you gurl, she redeemed herself in my eyes.

I DON'T WANT ASAHINA TO DIE

I got something wrong, so Monaka does not know who is the mastermind but she knows who, from the 78th class, is going to die. Wow, that is rather specific, right?
Naegi being the cause of it is what got me. It can be really vague, like "because he defeated Junko" or "because he is the one who tried to save the Remnants of Despair" (If Togami is going to Jabberwocky Island I can see it being the reason for him to die). Or it can be really direct, like Naegi killing someone on purpose (highly doubt it tho) or not.
Wow, I'm actually kinda hyped for next episode now @-@
