| I think Maizono killed herself. |
| ohh, people are really starting to die, 2 already? :o |

| 2 people died on this episode. Good, nut the thing I really dont liked was that pink blood. At the beginning I thouth that ws just a joke, but no... Its a real thing with a blood with strange colour. |
| Kind of interesting, given the time that was given to it, it did really well! Can't compare with the game, of course, I would've dedicated an entire episode to investigation. |

| My favorite girl got killed lol. I won't care about who dies from now on. |
SuperImpact said: My favorite girl got killed lol. I won't care about who dies from now on. Hey, when I read the game for the first time she was initially my favorite too! Then I was like "Oh well, at least Junko seems pretty cool" and then BAM she died. And then I was like "At least there's still [insert Maizono's murder here]" and then (s)he turned out to be the murderer! Oh the joys of life (or death, I guess). Asahina ended up being my favorite character in the end for some kinda-but-not-really-spoilerish reasons: |
| Oh man i liked Junko :'( |
| I'm really shocked when I was watching this episode, especially the part when Junko was killed. Really eerie to me (with all those spears stab through every part of her body, that's it). OwO Naegi-kun isn't the murderer, seriously. And I want Maizono's murderer to be spotted as soon as possible. |
| Hm, it's interesting that they kept a certain very important clue... I'm glad they did. Though it may be a bit more obvious watching and hearing it instead of reading it, I'm glad they didn't leave it out altogether. So far, I'm feeling pretty good about this adaptation. And goshhhh... If you think this murder/trial is bad, it's only going to get worse once you start getting really attached to some of the characters ;; |

| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| DA FACK. They just killed the chick Pink blood. Looks delicious. I think I'm liking this. Killer imo is the fortune teller guy. |
 |
| ahh purple blood...its been a while.... |
| I didn't expect Maizono to die at all. And Junko as well 0.o |
| Really liked this episode. My jaw dropped when blondie kicked the bucket like that though. |
| Pretty entertaining. When Monokuma was explaining the rules, I couldn't help but think that this was like the card game Mafia... Still, it's interesting. |
| Pink blood? Gotta be kidding, I really hope that's just airing censorship because it looks like someone took a bucket of paint and poured it over the corpses. The scenes started out eerie and dark but just became laughable at that point. Blood color rant aside, this murder game has become more interesting and the DVDs were pretty creepy - the idea of everyone you knew and were close to being wiped out so no one would notice your possibly infinite absence. |

Ratohnhaketon said: Pink blood? Gotta be kidding Deal with it.The blood was pink in the games to avoid them getting an adults only rating in Japan and it has become a staple of the series. I'm glad they kept the pink blood and everyone who has played the game agrees. |
| Eek, the Class Trials sound tough. I'm very curious who all thinks he's guilty. If they're wrong, they get punished, but Naegi still has to present his own case. Very curious how the trial is going to go/end! |
| 眠れないのは君のせい |
| Oh damn, didn't expect Maizono to go so early. Thought she was gonna end up Naegi's love interest for the series. I really wish that the blood was red instead of that bright pink. Also, let me see if I have this right. To graduate means you get to leave. To graduate, you have to kill someone without being caught. After someone dies, there's a class trial. If they point out the guilty person, only the guilty party dies. If they pick someone who was actually innocent, everyone else dies and the guilty gets to graduate right? So... that means that only 1 person can graduate? If I have something wrong, please correct me. Otherwise, can someone confirm if what I just said is true? |

Well, the game is a masterpiece of the unexpected. I can guarantee you that will be a incredible plot twist that will answer your question at the end. |

| All my life I was waiting for this anime. Well, since it was obvious that Maizono die first. |
| Well holy fuck, looks like this anime gets serious immediately. God damn two chars that I was beginning to like are already gone :(. At least they weren't developed enough for me to get attached to them yet. Oh boy, I can already see that these deaths are only gonna get more worse as the eps pass by and chars get more developed. |

I'm happy to see there are people out there appreciating this series rather than complaining how rushed it is compared to the game, but I have a suggestion for you. If you're interested in the emotional attachment between you and the characters that is built via character development I would recommend either playing the game yourself or watching it on YouTube. Danganronpa is a very meaty, plot-based series and because the plot takes priority over character development a lot of the latter gets shoved to the side. The series is still an enjoyable watch though! The deaths just have less impact than the game's (I'm assuming for those who haven't played the game; their deaths don't shock me as I know what's coming so there's no real surprises). |
| Everyone here is so into the mystery part of this anime. Everyone's already debating and making theories. I like the OP which now has vocals. And the ED depends on the number of students who are dead. At first I was like, "Sayaka's up to something." And then I was like, "Aaaaand she's dead... with pink blood." So in order to graduate, a student must "commit the perfect crime". And this is settled by something called a Class Trial, where the students debate and stuff. But most of them could die, if they guess incorrectly who the culprit is. Noo, Junko died too! Not just one, but two students! You are cruel, Monokuma... Sayaka's "motive CD" is worse than Makoto's. Speaking of Makoto, everyone's blaming him. Let's see where this goes. |
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. |
| Hahahaha she got herself killed. Possible love interest - crushed. But the way the room was trashed is weird. The hell were they doing? A freakin' swordfight? There were cuts all over the place... can't even guess who did it. |
| Why would Naegi be worried that his classmates think it's him who killed Maizono? He himself knows that he didn't which means nothing will happen to him anyway. It's only 2 episodes in but this anime feels heavily rushed, hardly any character development and fast plot progression. Oh, not to mention the pink blood. |
leeo268 said: Lol, That investigation last like 2 minutes? It will be impossible for TV audiences who didn't play the game to remember and make use of all those evidence. Not mentioning some missing evidences and vital information as well. Lol I know right, only 2minutes lol Shaduge said: Fine I take back all the crap I said about the last episode, this doesn't seem all that generic Me too, that trial actually looked interesting. |

| the pink blood kinda ruins it in a way for me, from what i have been told the game is a little darker so i planned on watching this then playing the game, i think i will enjoy the game better, i think if the cases in this show are decent and they mix it up then this might be enjoyable, enjoyed this episode more, although didn't like OP or ED for this one :/ |
| This is getting quite interesting. i can see why there is so much hype about this series. monobear voice is tough getting used too but its still nice. they killed the model Q_Q |
| 2 deaths already and pink/purple blood? Well two interesting characters were just cut so that's rather sad :/ Lets see what will happen next, the development sure is nice! |
 |
| Wasn't expecting Junko to just die like that >< But that was still an epic death by spears (not that I'm sadistic or anything) I somehow thought that Maizono just went berserk on the room and committed suicide... but looks like she was probably murdered. |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| This is getting intense, i'm investigating too. The ED is catchy. Let's see how will this turn out. |
| Ehh... what's with the blood? xD Well, this show looks decent so far but I'm not having very high hopes for it, yet... |
 |
| Not sure if I missed something because I was doing something else while watching this, but can someone explain to me: 1. How Junko dying in the gym proved her innocence. I doubt committing the murder would exempt her from getting punished by Monokuma for breaking the rules 2. Why everyone was surprised that Sayaka's corpse was found in Naegi's room. Oogami carried him to the gym didn't she? And they also mention they made sure that Sayaka was really dead. |

| Naegi should be worried, it's explained that if they accuse someone innocent, all the innocent one will be punished. So he's going to be executed and that's not very nice, huh. I was hoping those two girls to last more. |

| Who else played this game on psp? Well, I really know the story from the start of the show, but I just want to check-up this anime version. I like the animation and songs upgrade in opening and ending credits haha. And I also like the ost. The ost itself came from the game. The anime itself really look like I'm just playing the game again. xD And I noticed that Sakura said Junko that she looks different in real life. But in the game, it was Naegi who told that to her in the introduction. Junko and Maizono are dead. By the way... |
 |
| Two down already? That was fast. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| I have a feeling Togami won't last. And I really like him. Also what if Maizono killed herself? And what if Junko was the murderer. Doesn't it mean that everyone would be screwed over? Hmmm. Feels slightly rushed. |
| Wow. Two people dead already. Two beautiful girls to be specific. That was quick. I wonder who did it. My guess it was the guy with the glass ball. That's just a guess. The pink blood kinda makes it less serious but italso does give it a style. Can't believe she was just impaled by spears like that. I expected her to last longer. Don't really like the OP. Might grow onto me but I do like the ED. I wonder why those two girls were I. The ED along with the main character. I think it just shows a classroom full of dead people. |
| OMG I DID NOT EXPECT MAIZONO TO DIE SO EARLY ON. That shocked me... And on top of that, I was so shocked & sad about Junko...she was my favorite (character design) :( Damn.. I wonder who killed Maizono though, this is so interesting I'm loving it. |
| Wow, two dead already, i never played the game before and didn't know the blood was purple. |
 |
| Wow is that supposed to be blood? That is the most ridiculously looking blood I've ever seen. It looks like Splatoon! I don't believe Sayaka is really dead. She's been quite important and kind of crazy before her dead. Also what the fuck... that blonde girl died with no reason. |
 |
| the work of Bermuda triangle xd |
 |
| I like how most of the kids are archetype anime characters. And the boy was quite lucky to have a bathroom door that can be opened only a certain way, since only the girls bathrooms can lock, the boys bathroom can technically be a safe room in case of violence. HEHEHEHE BUT NO!!! NO such luck for the chick he knew. I would be going about investigations fro mdifferent angles. I would ask when everyones birthdate was, just to rule out any cryogenic freezing of thise kids, because they all seem like they are from different time periods. The resources are apparently handy to the bear and his company. Though the blood does like fake as hell . ON WARD! |
