| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The Junko mind games continue~ Looks like Chisa was brainwashed and corrupted by despair after all I'm not even surprised considering the hints she already gave. Those creepy eyes though... Not only that but Junko corrupting the other classmates gave me the creeps. Poor Nanami :< |

| Suwabe-san's character lost... though he did able to defeat many underlings of despair girl. So he loves his friend, not the teacher. She ordered him to betray his friend. Everyone except gamer girl is lead to the judgement room, and just "punished" despair girl without doing judgement. She wants to brainwash the class by seeing her pain and dead. Wow, Narcissist / lucky guy is narcissistic even if he became despair. The game girl, almost dying, talking to long hair guy, who cried picking up the hairpin after her death. Memory of body remembers even though there's no memory of another guy... |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Got voluntarily spoiled because I'm afraid of this episode. I have a quick question before I decide whether or not I should watch when it's out: was Nanami's torture scene more gruesome than Yukizome's torture, the Student Council mutual killing, etc.? There's a limit to what I can handle. |

| oh god why the hell i was looking up for spoilers fuck me I'm glad it's delayed, I don't even want to see the ep Manecleis said: Got voluntarily spoiled because I'm afraid of this episode.

There's a limit to what I can handle. From what little I saw, Chisa's torture was completely nothing compared to what is happening in this episode |
| The most valuable piece of information I've read is that Junko blackmailed Sakakura into betraying Munakata. But how exactly? (and btw, I think Sakakura is confirmed gay) |
| Okay so it's delayed in many countries... Again... They really are good to set the mood for making us despair. |

So, my japanese is not 100%, but it appears that she doesn't ask anything of him yet... Maybe it has to do with DR0 (security stuff) or Mirai-hen (she does ask him to betray Munakata after all, maybe it is about concealing Chisa's despair?) |

AND EVERYBODY HAS RED EYES NOW |
|
| I watched it RAW and honestly... it's basically 15 minutes of torturing Nanami, and her classmates falling into Despair (Tsumiki style, like crying and moaning) just by watching this happening. I hope subs will make sense of this because I fail to see where the brainwashing part comes into play, and it looks random overall. |
| Chiaki's scene ripped my heart out and i'm not a big fan of her. She won, in my heart. This was emotionally draining. |

So in other words they don't even try to show how the characters have fallen into despair? Or something along those lines? From what I've seen, they're just locked in a class trial, watching Nanami's execution (a long torture sequence followed by a brutal death), and they progressively cry in horror, and at the end they're full despair with the twisted eyes and the moaning. In the meantime, Junko delivers a speech and taunts Nanami, and Komaeda seems to enjoy the execution from the outset. |

Wait a second here (actually someone showed this transcript on Twitter) Would this make sense in some way with what the anime showed, as far as you have seen? |
TheLittleRedHero said: Wait a second here (actually someone showed this transcript on Twitter) Would this make sense in some way with what the anime showed, as far as you have seen? As far as I can tell, no. They enter the class trial completely sane, then Junko broadcasts Nanami's execution, and they progressively despair just because of that. It's a group thing, they all fall into despair because they watched Nanami getting executed. Except that they don't end up sad and broken, they end up in the Tsumiki state of despair (crying + moaning) for no apparent reason. With the exception of Komaeda who seems excited very early and Tsumiki who's enjoying it right off the bat. |

| So sakakura is gay, so he was not friendzoned, THEN WHO IS THE MASTERMIND IN MIRAI HEN? |
| For some reason... And by going by the mysterious 13th branch leader... I was soo hoping that would be Chiaki, so i wouldn't see her die in the despair side... BOY was i wrong... and sad. Thanks now I'm depressed. |
 |
| Easily the most brutal execution. Chiaki didn't deserve any of that fuck Junko. |
| Still haven't seen it and hopefully not very soon,pls delay stay like that and I'm happy just for the sole reason HE. IS. GAY. YES!!! Here I was,for a long time,the single live who said Juzo was in love with Munakata while the rest shouted "HE LOVES CHISA TOO aww". No,fuck Chisa Also fuck off despair,this is the best thing that could've come as confirmed from this show. Bless p.s. the brainwash still bullshit, this fanservice show is bullshit |
| That was bullshit it would have made more sense if Fuyuhiko and Mahiru fell into despair 7 episodes ago than whatever this was |
 |
| Fuck....this.... I'm too emotionally strained.... she didn't deserve this.... This was incredibly hard to watch.... Poor Hajime.... :'( |
| Holy shit... I definitely didn't expect that, that's the most brutal execution, why does Nanami get all the gruesome executions anyway ? And mostly, why did she manage to survive getting stabbed all over the place just to talk to Izuru and die ? 10/10 Would recommend to sadists Oh damn, I don't want to continue the show anymore ;_; (This is what I say but I'll still finish it since I loved to play SDR2 lol) Izuru crying at the end was touching, and the classmates drowning into despair was just both fucking creepy and cringy. At least Sakakura is gay lol, at least we know what he wanted to confess to Munakata before getting killed(well actually most of us already now but it's funny to see how he looked like when he was taking a look to Munakata's photos xD ) |
Irseus said: And since their bond is really strong, it must be really sad for them to watch one of their friends being tortured sadistically. So sad, indeed. Honestly, there's nothing that can justify this outcome - they were like this RIGHT AFTER Nanami died brutally. This is not sadness, defeat and resignation, it's creepy excitement and twisted despair without the brainwashing, brain-messing parts. It was poorly written, and that's a shame since the whole point of the Despair arc was to get to that. |

| I KNEWWWWW IT!!!!!!! I knew Sakakura's lover wasn't Chisa, but Munakata! Omg!!!!!! |
 |
| Even since I start watching this episode I knew something bad would happen to Nanami Chiaki and had a feeling of that is not really a goal of hope , but a goal of despair. My heart want her to survive but I still had a feeling that she died. Everyone went on despaired Fever. Izuru crying in end, Hinata awakening, maybe somehow made that Nanami AI or what. |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| Okay. Finished watching it. That was for sure the saddest episode of all Danganronpa's. Tbh I think it was the saddest thing ever happened in the entire franchise??? Omg I'm just so sad. I was sad, but when Izuru started to cry I cried with him SERIOUSLY WHAT THE FUCK OMG I HAD HOPES SHE WAS STILL ALIVE SRSLY I'M SO SAD OMG THATS SO SAD |
|
| I knew Nanami is going to die in this episode but it's really cruel and the torture is too long. Surprised that Kamukura cried tho. tbh still disappointed on how 77th class fallen to despair. The whole point I watch Zetsubou-hen is to know how Junko made them fallen into despair one by one and they said Junko's despair is far more dreadful than any other. Yes surely dreadful /s. Sakakura confirmed gay and not in love with Yukizome. Really didn't expect love triangle centered on Munakata. |
 |
| What the hell? What the hell? What the hell? I'm watching the french subbed version and they can't move because of the footage of Nanami's torture, eventhough it's broadcast live and therefore, there's no brainwashing technique applied to it? |
| I need to replay Junko's execution over and over again to take the bad taste out of my mouth. That bitch.... I never hated so much a fictional character as much as I hate her. |
 |
| I also think the brainwashing thing a bit ugh. When I played the game I thought Junko had manipulated them ONE BY ONE using their sad pasts and stuff to make they realize how their life was bad and everything. But ugh. Well. I'm not that mad at it, but I expected so much more. Also, seriously, all this blood and torture and shit... Idk. If they intended to make me feel the despair, well, they're doing it right. I had to stop the episode a lot of times because I was nervous as fuck. ughuyfdshgcujuiwokfd I would be sad AND glad if they had just showed us Chiaki's dead body (or only her final moments with Izuru). They could have given this time a better use. Like making Junko manipulate everyone one by one and stuff. kawaii-despair said: Still haven't seen it and hopefully not very soon,pls delay stay like that and I'm happy just for the sole reason HE. IS. GAY. YES!!! Here I was,for a long time,the single live who said Juzo was in love with Munakata while the rest shouted "HE LOVES CHISA TOO aww". No,fuck Chisa RIGHT? OMG. I'm so happy to be right. I KNEW IT WAS MUNAKATA AND NOT CHISA AAAAAAAAAAH SERIOUSLY I love how Danganronpa include LGBT characters. So realistic *loves* |
|
| I really hope Izuru has something serious up his sleeve and he's going to be a key player in the Future Arc endgame because watching the guy wander aimlessly since episode 6 is quite annoying. |
