Would you do it?

I want to get off kodakeks wild ride

You can't escape.

Cutest and best! Best boy, best robot.

You can't.
No one can.

PLEASE LET IT END

NO MORE BREAD

Reminder that Saihara and Amami are bros and that you shouldn't reply to the shitposters

Older game characterfag, where you guys at?
Post DR1/DR2.

But I like bread.

Good luck

Hi

...

>implying this is the end
>implying it isn't USO DA YO
>implying the series won't continue
>implying you will ever be free from this ride

No longer a DR2 fag since DR3 ruined all the characters, but have this.

I'm still here. Don't post much because all everybody wants to talk about is v3.

Ishimarufag is that you? Got any favorite in the new game or is Ishimaru still your top boy?

Even though I usually post Angie I will always feel devoted to Saionji.

>no UDG
Best sister needs some love too.

Who?

Yep, Ishimaru is still my number 1 and from what I read from the translations and summaries from v3 I like Kaito, Gonta, Hoshi, and Kaede in that order. I won't make my final judgement until proper translations are out, but i'm still looking forward to knowing more about them.

Komaru is adorable. She's in my top 15 in terms of overall favorites.

KoreAngie Happy ending! ;_;

Hope Manlet's lil sis.
Sayaka was willing to kill to see her bandmates but Naegi wasn't willing to kill to check his imouto was okay.

I mean, what caring brother wouldn't kill for the sake of his sister, am I right Tulpaman?

Seeing people still liking the older characters make me feel a little warmer inside.

...

All for nothing, unfortunately.

Tenmiko happy ending!

>despite Tulpaman's multi-kill, for the first time more girls than boys survived the killing game.
Really makes you want to play Neon Outrun

I love the look and feel of that minigame, but sometimes you have to wonder why there are hookers standing in the middle of the road.

Also, how do they manage to do a backflip into your car in a split second so you don't run them over?

CLAP

CLAP

CLAP YOUR HANDS

seriously what is that guy saying in brain drive

Angiefriends assemble!

Angie!

ASS TO THE CENTER!
ASS TO THE CENTER!
ASS TO THE CENTER!
ASS TO THE CENTER!

Yonabashira happy ending!

...

Thanks, Kaedefriend.

Dude

That's from that comic drawn by the Tulpafag where she gets slaughtered a second later

Don't remind me

Someone needs do this for the other characters

Does the steam version of SDR2 have the japanese audio track as an option? I'm not fond of the english voices.

hajimikimo.tumblr.com/post/157040021986/ndrv3-chapter-1-investigation-translation#permalink-notes

Thrust the gun in and out of his mouth, making it so he gags on it and forces spit to run down his chin, and doing it until he cries reflexive tears? And then pull it out, offer him a moment of relief, and then shoot him in the kneecap?

Absolutely!

Some interesting things of note:

1) The creepy tune could actually have been meant to 'brainwash' Shirogane into killing Amami, thus making it questionable how willing was she to be a part of TDR.

2) This bit between Ouma and Kaito that foreshadows Kaito's execution:

Kaito Momota:
Heh, if you’re scared, even after a girl goes so far to say that, you’d be useless as a man.
Yeah, let’s fucking do this! I’ll make myself known throughout space, and I’ll show you Kaito Momota’s way of living!

Kokichi Ouma:
Don’t you mean your way of dying?

Kaito Momota:
Don’t say something so fucking sinister!

Man, on repeat viewings, it's easy to see that Kaede is the killer.

>Korekiyo Shinguuji: Well… there’s no need to think about it so difficulty. We just need to converse with the corpse… A dead body isn’t simply dead…That’s just an assumption made by the living. That’s right! Just by facing the corpse, you can view a myriad of surprising spectacles!

>Tenko Chabashira: Why are you so excited!? Are you a corpse maniac!?

>Shuichi Saihara: I can think of a number of possibilities, but the worst one among those would be… That the culprit’s objective isn’t “to survive”, but it’s “to kill everybody here”.
>Kaede Akamatsu: K-kill everybody!?
>Kirumi Toujou: In that case, it would explain why they would throw away the path to survival and bring about the Class Trial…
>Kaede Akamatsu: But… isn’t that too big of an assumption?
>Kirumi Toujou: However, if the culprit is the mastermind, it’s very possible.
>Kaede Akamatsu: T-that’s true… The mastermind might think of killing us all but…

>Kaede Akamatsu:
…………………..

Everything around me became pitch black, my legs started shaking, and…
Yet, I desperately kept myself from losing my train of thought.
… Why was Amami-kun here?
And…
The monitor had turned off before anyone had realized it.
Monokuma disappeared from the screen. That means…
Can it be… this means the mastermind is dead?
I can’t think of any other reason. Which means, Amami-kun was-----

>Shuichi Saihara: … I’m checking his belongings. Since you don’t know where there could be a clue. If I’m going to do it… I have to be thorough. I said I’m here for you, after all.

>Kaede Akamatsu: W-what… how can you say something so smooth so casually.

>My heart... skipped a beat.

Holy shit they really went all out with shipping Kaede and Shuuichi

It's hard not being a shipperfag.

>Kaede Akamatsu: Are these… movie posters? They all look like the same poster…

>I took and spread out one of the posters. Ultra Despair Girls 2… release confirmed? It looks like a game but… I’ve never even heard of it.

>Kaede Akamatsu: The main characters are a high school girl with a megaphone and a serial killer… It terribly stinks of B class video gaming.

>Shuichi Saihara: Is this also Monokuma’s prank?

>Kaede Akamatsu: I think… it probably is.

I can't believe Kodaka both roasted his own series and foreshadowed the "HPA is HICKSHUN" twist at the same time.

So what has been everyone's favorite memes that have come from the release and aftermath of V3?
Personally, mine would have to be Miu's electron bombs (that can reverse time).

Miu's electron bombs (that can turn back time) will always be the best meme.

Korekiyo's nicknames are a close second, though.

Well, when the game itself ships those two so strongly, what can you do?

All the copypastas about how Ouma's plans crashed and burned harder than an airplane wreck in spite of his best efforts.

>Miu Iruma:
Shut the fuck up, it’s not like I can help it! You flat-chested raisin-nippled bitch!

>Kaede Akamatsu:
Y-you’re the one who should be quiet! Mine are way better than your milk cow udders!

Exactly. I just... cringe when cliches like that happens.

>Kaede Akamatsu: Shirogane-san, are you sure about this? I’m going to lift your skirt~

>Shuichi Saihara: Wha… Akamatsu-san!

>Kaede Akamatsu: Come on come on~ I’m going to lift it~ Saihara-kun’s going to see~ I’m going to hang your skirt on your head, and you’ll turn into a weird object with just the lower half of the body exposed~

Why did she have to die for no reason.

>Shirogane's thoughts
>KILLTHATPIANOSLUTKILLTHATPIANOSLUTKILLTHATPIANOSLUTKILLTHATPIANOSLUTKILLTHATPIANOSLUTKILLTHATPIANOSLUT

No wonder she sent her to be executed.

Komaru and Toko btfo

Shiromatsu happy ending!

...

Kaede's surprisingly playful in her interactions with the other students.

Man, the foreshadowing in this chapter is great.
>Kaede feeling despair specifically about the mastermind not being killed
>Kirumi mentioning that the mastermind could be the culprit
>Ouma saying it's suspicious how Amami always has his monopad with him
>Kirumi saying she's willing to run away with everyone
>Tsumugi saying she can't cosplay as "real people"
>Tenko calling Korekiyo a corpse fiend

Goodnight /drg/! I hope you all sleep well and have a great day tomorrow.

Adding on to this, could it be there's so much blatant foreshadowing because it's also foreshadowing that this killing game is pretty much scripted?

Eh I think they're pretty sweet desu

She died because of her own mistake

>Kirumi saying she's willing to run away with everyone

Until Chapter 2 har har

...

Good night, Kaedefriend!

Kek, so this scene is actually a real scene from the game

Good night Kaede user!

Sleep well, Kaedeanon!

Cute~

>Kaede Akamatsu: That’s not something to be so proud of… If you don’t hurry, the investigation will be over, you know?

>Miu Iruma: Shut the fuck up, it’s not like I can help it! You flat-chested raisin-nippled bitch!

>Kaede Akamatsu: Y-you’re the one who should be quiet! Mine are way better than your milk cow udders!

>Miu Iruma: … Heeegh! M-milk cow…! Milk cowwww…!

Kaede is fucking brutal.

Miu shouldn't start shit if she can't take it.

That's some brutality. This is just making me mad that she isn't the protagonist again.

Yeah, that was literally the face I made analyzing the pattern of the victims and murderers and realizing it mirrors DR1.

I also noticed that save for Maki (For whatever reason), everyone who was killed or who killed someone was either a positive motivational force, smart (Useful in class trials) or dangerous. You'll find so many fun things comparing the cases to DR1, in which fun means 'Despair-inducing'.

Outrun had branching paths, they probobly wanted to do that but they probobly couldn't code properly

I want to eat cheese made of Miu's milk.

Is tulpaman too powerful?

Kaede would've gotten along well with Ouma.

Don't do that

>Kaede and Ouma could've been partners the whole game
wtf i hate saihara now

...

Ouma said Kaede wasn't boring, which definitely meant he did see potential within her.

Oh, what could have been!

delete yourself

What's some talents you'd want to see in future DR games?

>tfw Kiibo and Ouma agree on something

I've heard some people say that Kaede wouldn't work as the protag because she was so inclined towards hope, which would go against the theme of the story. But is there really anything to say that they couldn't have just given her enough character development during the course of the game so it would make sense for her to reject Dangan Ronpa?

SHSL Kinkshamer

Chemist, Attorney, Mortician, Makeup Artist, Cryptozoologist (imagine the execution), and just for luls bad luck

SHSL Medium : easy first case victim

Break the cutie is my favorite trope

...

I think they could since she has both doubt and trust, though it's pretty clear from everything that she had so much confidence in her plan that she ignored facts such as how the mastermind could have taken advantage of her trap and how she was pushing people too hard in the Death Road mini-game, thus ensuring her death.

Granted, my theory as to why Saihara is the real protagonist has to do with how all DR protags are self-inserts to an extent. There's a lot of patterns here Saihara wouldn't know that the player can catch on, so NDRV3 is a mystery both in the game and on a meta level to be solved.

I mean... he was just doing his job....

...Why do I find this part hilarious?

Not going to lie, his face looks like a butt
