Important announcement regarding the channel at the end of the video. I hope you guys are as excited about it as I am! Thanks again to everyone who has watched my videos and supported me enough to make me feel comfortable trying out full time. Basically starting next week I’ll be able to LP and post analysis videos every week. With my job I felt like I only had time to do one or the other. Regardless though I do hope you guys enjoy the video!
Weeby Newz Also if you need any new mods on your Doki Doki let's play to prevent spoilers I'd be willing to help out since I want to support the channel more but can't really donate that often! I didn't want to spoil danganronpa for myself lol but I've played DDLC so I could help if you need any more 😄
I love that Kodaka made the game exactly how he wanted. Danganronpa is the only series that could get away with so many different themes and tones and twists, and I’m glad the original creator’s creativity was not held back.
Oh they tried, oh how they tried. As you can see in the question about the epilogue, they wanted to remove the epilogue but Kodaka didn't back down. I imagine there were other details they may have tried, and failed, to remove. Kodaka just has too much influence in the company at this stage since Danganronpa is one of the big money makers,so they can't just outright refuse him.
I also like it when a story seems to go randomly or subverses your expectations. he knew everyone knew hope vs despair was the theme and that enoshima junko was behind it. so only a different ending would satisfy the fans. specially after the plot twists from the previous games. the point is to end the killing game so this was truly the right ending; i think. had he gone again for the expected ending, everyone would just say "its danganronpa: kill your friends for 5 chapters, then win with the power of friendship". i believe this was the only right ending.
I completely agree with Kodaka's viewpoints on V3's ending. Danganronpa was never created to be a game of fluff and happiness, and the ending kind of helped that resurface :)
Kodaka's stance on the reception of the ending actually makes me respect him even more. I love the games, but I wasn't a fan of V3's ending. The fact that he knew the backlash would probably happen but did it anyways shows how serious he is about his games and his vision.
They could have ended the game in a much better way, not one that made you feel like all of the time you have spent loving these games and learning the lore was wasted
@@samanthaanderson1213 there is a chance that some of what tsmugi said was a lie, shuichi stated that in the end and the ending being so open it leaves many possibilities that some of the lore we all worked so hard to understand might actually be somewhat Important(I’m late._.)
GenericRUclipsComment Channel Depends. In Japan, high school students can range from 15-19, with the typical being 16-18. So it's already on the borderline. V3's cast is from different schools and different classes so there's no way to know what year they're in Also, let's be honest... unless it's a student/teacher relationship, or a significant age gap, adult female/teen male relationships rarely are going to raise flags unless the parents of the teen make a stink.
i think its cuz kaede’s seems forced, and kokichi’s is the stereotypical batman and joker relationship. maki’s feels natural. im shocked kaito’s is not up there for also feeling very natural.... i guess its only popular in the asexual side of the fandom, as well as keebo’s
This is very late...But Maki isn’t the first in polls. Her picture just there, actually Kaede got 1st Kokichi at 2nd and Korekiyo at 3rd. Confirm by Weeby at 4:32 and this somerandomness77.tumblr.com/post/164403671977/result-of-famitsus-survey-on-ndrv3-part-2. Sorry about my suck grammars.
Fun fact: I read it somewhere that Rantaro's birth leaf is a Maple and "Kaede" translated into English is "Maple", apparently it was supposed to be a hint
It’s funny that Kodaka said that he added the epilogue to clear up doubts for the player about the story, because all the epilogue did for me personally was give me even *more* doubt.
Same here! His murder was actually the first time I've actually screamed while playing a Danganronpa game (I knew someone was dead from the foreshadowing, but still sad to see him go so early)
I liked Tsumugi so much until shE KILLED RANTARO AND BLAMED KAYAYDAY. Here are my top favorites for no reason. 1. Kokichi, 2. K1B0/Keebo/Kiibo, 3. Tenko, 4. Angie, 5. Rantaro
Zate 560 i assumed the fact that he did look like that more people would like him. he kinda of reminded me of the fan favorite character of undertale, sans, so because of that i first assumed he’d be a fan favorite. turns out thats one of the reasons hes less popular.... guess undertale didnt age well with fans. besides that i think the main reason hes unpopular is the little amount of attention he was given in-game. same goes for mahiru, whos also very underrated. but unlike mahiru i feel like ryoma was killed off too early, i was hoping he’d get some time to realize he does indeed have things left to live for; the people around him. as long as that happened, i woulda been less sad if he died after that. people dying when they’re willing to die is honestly sadder than those dying when they didnt want to die for some reason
I thought it was also pretty interesting that there was an unused Argument Armament icon for Tsumugi, I imagine that would've originally been used to get Tsumugi to admit her role as the mastermind and lead into the second half of the trial when she starts cosplaying.
Tbh, I'm amazed they didn't even have one at all for that trial, even if they had to cut it down so that only the main characters/survivors participated
Was watching the skating event during the Winter Olympics, and during the performance, they were playing Claire de Lune. Got some major flashbacks about Kaede.
kodaka welcomes the backlash for the ending because he knows its actually required, and thats whats so clever about it imo, the ending was designed to split opinions as its hard not to be on the audiences side to continue the series, yet to win the game you have to accept that its possibly the end of danganronpa itself, just one thing i want to point out to panicking fans though is that since its technically the 53rd game theres always the possibility of games that take place before it, and since this game was all about lies theres also the chance tsumugi was lieing about everything
Thegeektoendallgeeks The Ending Was Shit! vs The Ending Was The Shit! DEBATE SCRUM! Tally me for the "The Ending Was The Shit!" Team. Loved it and everything that came with and after it.
Mikan's execution was based on her backstory and trauma but I think Kodaka would do a better job at reflecting it. He makes the most "Danganronpa" executions.
Don't know if anyone has pointed this out but... Kiyotaka is called Taka and Korekiyo is called Kiyo Kiyo + Taka = Kiyotaka And take the remaining parts of their names Kore + Kiyo = Korekiyo What could this mean!?
That's only a thing in the localization. The original dialogue always uses their full surname. In fact, it sounds weird for Shuichi to call him Kiyo since Shuichi is extremely polite to the point he even calls Kaede and Maki by their surnames for most of the game (the only person he calls in first name basis is Kaito). This even plays into Kaede's love hotel scene where she insists to be called Kaede instead of Akamatsu and then blushes when he does.
its because of localization. Saihara calls them by their surname like (Akamatsu san, Kibo kun, Shinguuji kun). It's the same for other games like Hinata didnt use honorifics (san,kun) to everyone and Naegi calls others by honorifics. Also Id like to point out Angie is the only one who calls everyone by their first name.
Considering the amount of long names that they did NOT shorten it seems like it was more like the editor kept stumbling when pronouncing the name and said "fuck it, Kiyo it is". I mean,this is NISA we're talking about. They're not known for their stellar track record on localizations (even V3's localization is a bit weird in places, Kokichi's dialogue changes being the most controversial).
Congratulations on your progress with your channel Weeby!!! Here's HOPING for the FUTURE!! This isn't really related to lore or trivia but, here's some foreshadowing I noticed The Spike Chunsoft logo is propped up on a lit stage upon starting the game The "Work of Fiction" disclaimer The main menu starts up like a TV turning on, complete with a sound effect and static The Class Trial borders have a broken glass motif, making it look like a shattered television screen Shuichi's unnamed parents are an actor and a screenwriter (if I remember right) Shuichi likes novels Miu likes children's television The song "Nightmare in the Locker" has what sounds like a kind of stage light(?) turning on and a prominent rope sound Speaking of songs, some of the titles are blatant giveaways in hindsight "Wonderful Story" "REAL/FICTION" "Beautiful Lie" "Let's Koroshiai Broadcast"
I liked that Kodaka handled the executions in V3 because the executions 1-4 in dr2 really annoyed me. And i really like that Kodaka made the ending he wanted to make instead of just pleasing the fans :3 Ouma analysis hype :D
Kodaka is an interesting dude, I loved that comment about growing an audience where getting angry is okay, just an interesting thing for a creator to say! Also, YAY Weeby that announcement is so awesome!! Congratulations! ^_^
How the heck are the executions from 2 considered bad? (Aside from Mikan's.) Gundham's execution in particular was perfect, with how heartbreaking it was.
They were stupid and not really in the spirit of what an Execution is. V3s are the best. The executions are among the only thing I can say were done well in the game.
@@Moda-pf8wt Are you kidding?! Mikans was about her trauma?! Oversized objects, abuse, being drugged, everything about it must of been HORRIFYING for her 😭
@@ilyarfie4551 My reply may have sounded wrong; I apologize for that. I meant in a physical sense. What people expect out of execution is extreme physical violence. The popular opinion is that Mikan's wasn't so violent. And yes, if she was in her right state of mind, this would have been horrifying for her.
Teruteru was not impactful and not visually horrifying, there was no tension. Same for Mikan, she enjoys the full it (when like for Korekiyo he enjoys it at first until he gets sprinkled with salt by his sister and can't join her) And Ghundam one was cute Ok-tier
I don’t know if this is true or not, but in NicoB’s LP of Danganronpa someone brought up that apparently Kodaka created Miu as an intentionally dislikable character and he was shocked that she was high on the Mainavi poll. (I discovered your channel after you finished your LP, so I don’t know if you knew this or not.)
Danganronpa is a good example of a game series that doesn't care about backlash for their decisions but just a game that wants to make their own story no matter how many people hate it. And that's a good thing, I love Danganronpa even if some of the endings and twists were dumb. It's my favorite game to this day. Danganronpa will always have a special place in my heart.
Another fun fact, when Shuichi's name is highlighted in Trial 4 after Kaito tells him that he doesn't need help, the japanese dub makes Kaito revert to calling him "Saihara" again
Nope.......nuh uh.......False info....I dont know who the person saying this is but they got it wrong or mis-translated it. All he said is that he was surprised that she was so popular.
I was initially upset with V3’s ending, but the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it actually suits one of the messages of the overall series. The ending being up for interpretation is saying that only you can choose to what you want to do, what you want to believe in. In the first game, everyone willingly chose to vote against Junko and leave the school, even if everything she said about the outside world was true. In the second game, everyone made the choice to activate the Forced Shutdown Command to not only defeat Junko, but also to create a new future for themselves because only their own choices can influence their own futures. And now, in V3, the characters have to decide if Tsumugi was lying or not about whether anything they knew was real. In a way, it’s sort of like a meta-commentary on that exact message. Even if this is fiction, in the end, choosing what is true or not is entirely up to you.
I've been waiting for a video I'm happy you finally got to upload one :) I'm learning how stressful it is to make these because I'm working on a danganronpa video now but I hope to be as great at it as you are :)
There is a lot of anime being referenced in the game, especially by Tsumugi, also there are two voice actors whose characters have the same status as the previous characters they have voiced.
Congratulations about going full-time! Also I would recommend streaming DDLC, its a shorter game and there are lots of Easter eggs throughout the game that you might miss but highly committed fans would notice, but do whatever is easiest. Also looking forward to how you handle v3 character analysises after the whole big reveal at the end
Also also it would be great if you could give Ishimaru a character analysis, but I know you'll be very busy with all the stuff you're doing on the channel
4:24 This triggers EVERYTHING in my body.I LOVE Gonta,Tsumugi and Ryoma!Not to mention Angie is my favorite character!Who took the poll?Imma slap whoever dislikes ma girl Angie
Ayyye, You'll last day will be on my birthday! But anyway, I respect Kodaka so much more than what I already did after watching this video. It is so nice to see someone who is making what they want to make and not necessarily catering to the fans. I think this gives Danganronpa the kick is has always had.
Weeby, if it's possible, do you think in the future you might do a video on why some people did not like the Danganronpa 3 anime? I just finished playing Danganronpa 2 and I plan on starting the anime soon. I do love your analysis videos and I liked your review on the anime and it would be interesting to see why it was mixed. Thanks!
Congrats weeby for chasing your dreams to do what you love! I look forward to seeing where you take your channel and can’t wait for that Ouma video! :3
I'm sure you've looked into it, and forgive me if it already exists, but if you're going full-time, you should definitely start plugging Patreon as additional revenue.
I read that Kodaka got a bit upset after hearing Rantaro's VA do his lines. Kodaka loved it so much that he wanted Rantaro to live longer but since he was too far into the script he had no choice but to leave it as it is.
My favorite character is Tsumugi and before I watched the game I predicted that she would be the killer at some point. After the 5th chapter I was starting to think that she was actually good into I saw the twist which made me love her more.
Also have any of you noticed that in every game, the first execution starts with being dragged by a chain (by the neck ofc) Leon was dragged to the poll in which he was strapped into, teruteru was dragged outside to a poll as well, and kaede was dragged to the piano 😳
Another fun fact I found pretty interesting is the reference to Keebo's name since the word "hope" is pronounced "kibou" (希望) in Japanese which makes him indeed the new ultimate (robot) hope I guess, haha
Congrats on being able to quit your job its a big step to take good luck with the channel and you know well always support whatever you do with the channel :) (also can't wait for that ddlc playthrough)
I find it hilarious how Kodaka and the whole team do so much just because they can. Like for the second game, they told him he could make it in the same style as the first so he gives them an entire island. They make a joke and hey boss look who I just hired. They kill off characters because they’re sick of looking at them and Kodaka writes in Monomi getting beaten up to vent his personal frustration. And in this one he just wants his fan base to fight each other and that’s just hilarious to me.
rantaro will never meet his sisters. shuichi will never be able to love again. everyone hated kokichi, making him secretly depressed. dice died in a fire, and kokichi never knew.
I liked Tsumugi a lot more after the game when there started to be some evidence that she was memory wiped into being the mastermind. And since we're talking about Tsumugi, is it possible she lied about the cause of her cospox, it seems to be real, but the only time we see it is when she does a half cosplay of kaede. Maybe if she had a wig and tried to act like her, she wouldn't have broken out with it. Just a thought
The one execution that is did not want to see through the end was Kaede’s*cries* Not to mention that Kaede’s love hotel scene is the cutest thing I have ever witness.Thanks Weeby for such intriguing facts:)
I think it's the best execution in the series, but I refuse to ever watch it again. Hell I almost quit the entire series after they pulled that shit cuz she was literally the only enjoyable thing about the game. xD Her interactions with everyone were actually fun. Poochi's dialogue is the most boring shit in the world.
I kinda felt like they shouldn’t have added the epilogue to the game. It feels a bit like they’re trivializing everything that had just happened by allowing survivors. I mean sure I absolutely love the characters but I think letting them die would’ve been more satisfying. It also opens up the possibility of a sequel, which is a whole other can of worms... do I want one? Maybe. Do we need one? Probably not... overall though NDRV3 was by far my favorite in the series, and I have very few criticisms of it as a whole.

Crowned Cryptid not really... he left the project because he couldn’t do what he wanted.
I also like it when a story seems to go randomly or subverses your expectations. he knew everyone knew hope vs despair was the theme and that enoshima junko was behind it. so only a different ending would satisfy the fans.

There is another theory. Recall Rantaro'r free time events. All 12 of his sister's went missing. Perhaps Kaede is one of them, no?
Actually this might reference the 1st class trial since rantarou died and kaede got executed so maybe that's the foreshadowing was.

It’s funny that Kodaka said that he added the epilogue to clear up doubts for the player about the story, because all the epilogue did for me personally was give me even *more* doubt.

Yes, Peko's and Gundam's were executions that didn't need to be brutal because they were impactful emotionally in my opinion.
Mikan's execution was based on her backstory and trauma but I think Kodaka would do a better job at reflecting it. He makes the most "Danganronpa" executions.

That's only a thing in the localization. The original dialogue always uses their full surname.

This isn't really related to lore or trivia but, here's some foreshadowing I noticed
The Spike Chunsoft logo is propped up on a lit stage upon starting the game
The "Work of Fiction" disclaimer
The main menu starts up like a TV turning on, complete with a sound effect and static
The Class Trial borders have a broken glass motif, making it look like a shattered television screen
Shuichi's unnamed parents are an actor and a screenwriter (if I remember right)
Shuichi likes novels
Miu likes children's television
The song "Nightmare in the Locker" has what sounds like a kind of stage light(?) turning on and a prominent rope sound
Speaking of songs, some of the titles are blatant giveaways in hindsight
"Wonderful Story"
"REAL/FICTION"
"Beautiful Lie"
"Let's Koroshiai Broadcast"
I liked that Kodaka handled the executions in V3 because the executions 1-4 in dr2 really annoyed me.
And i really like that Kodaka made the ending he wanted to make instead of just pleasing the fans :3
Ouma analysis hype :D
Kodaka is an interesting dude, I loved that comment about growing an audience where getting angry is okay, just an interesting thing for a creator to say!
Also, YAY Weeby that announcement is so awesome!! Congratulations! ^_^
If I ever see him I'm calling him a B B B Baka. xD
How the heck are the executions from 2 considered bad? (Aside from Mikan's.) Gundham's execution in particular was perfect, with how heartbreaking it was.
They weren't brutal enough, I guess? Mikan's in particular was just... uh, well, not brutal at all.
They were stupid and not really in the spirit of what an Execution is. V3s are the best. The executions are among the only thing I can say were done well in the game.
@@Moda-pf8wt Are you kidding?! Mikans was about her trauma?! Oversized objects, abuse, being drugged, everything about it must of been HORRIFYING for her 😭
@@ilyarfie4551 My reply may have sounded wrong; I apologize for that. I meant in a physical sense. What people expect out of execution is extreme physical violence. The popular opinion is that Mikan's wasn't so violent. And yes, if she was in her right state of mind, this would have been horrifying for her.
Teruteru was not impactful and not visually horrifying, there was no tension.
Same for Mikan, she enjoys the full it (when like for Korekiyo he enjoys it at first until he gets sprinkled with salt by his sister and can't join her)
And Ghundam one was cute Ok-tier
I don’t know if this is true or not, but in NicoB’s LP of Danganronpa someone brought up that apparently Kodaka created Miu as an intentionally dislikable character and he was shocked that she was high on the Mainavi poll. (I discovered your channel after you finished your LP, so I don’t know if you knew this or not.)
No its not....He said that he was surprised that she was so popular........he never ever said anything about making her unlikable.
+AztecRAVEWave Okay. Thanks for clearing that up.
No problem =)
WEEBY ! Rantaros photo (those on the right or left) is from the demo they're leftovers
I want wait for kokichi’s analysis video!!
Danganronpa is a good example of a game series that doesn't care about backlash for their decisions but just a game that wants to make their own story no matter how many people hate it. And that's a good thing, I love Danganronpa even if some of the endings and twists were dumb. It's my favorite game to this day. Danganronpa will always have a special place in my heart.
Another fun fact, when Shuichi's name is highlighted in Trial 4 after Kaito tells him that he doesn't need help, the japanese dub makes Kaito revert to calling him "Saihara" again
"I want to be tied by his ropes too". man, that lady has some balls saying that online XD Fricking love that woman!
Congrats Weeby! Hope to see your channel explode even more
4:00
Those are my favourites too!
Kodaka is such a good person! I really admire him!
Puhuhu... such is my excitement at a new Danganronpa video from Weeby 😁
I am excited to see more from weeby, full time RUclipsr is some of the best news I have herd this week, I HOPE it turns out great for your channel!
1:15 Sayaka Kanda also played Mukuro. Why does everyone forget to mention that?
It's weird since she says she played Junko but shows Mukuro disguised as her.
They need to make Mukuro her own sprite and remove her vision as a copycat from the series. I think her freckles are really cute. xD
I'm so happy for you going full time! That's amazing and I can't wait to see where your channel goes in the future!
A good piece of trivia could have been that Kodaka made Miu to be unlikable.
Nope.......nuh uh.......False info....I dont know who the person saying this is but they got it wrong or mis-translated it. All he said is that he was surprised that she was so popular.
I remember him saying it in the live-stream that counted down to the release of V3.
Well if he did, that backfired horribly
NicoB said it.
AztecRAVEWave I'm so sorry for misunderstanding. Thank you for letting me know.
Oh my Weeby, I wish you the best of luck in your full-time RUclips career! We will always be here to support you ❤
I love how kodaka made dr3 executions so dark. They are *amazing*
it's sad bc sayaka (actor not danganronpa character) died a while ago :(
I was initially upset with V3’s ending, but the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it actually suits one of the messages of the overall series. The ending being up for interpretation is saying that only you can choose to what you want to do, what you want to believe in.
In the first game, everyone willingly chose to vote against Junko and leave the school, even if everything she said about the outside world was true. In the second game, everyone made the choice to activate the Forced Shutdown Command to not only defeat Junko, but also to create a new future for themselves because only their own choices can influence their own futures.
And now, in V3, the characters have to decide if Tsumugi was lying or not about whether anything they knew was real. In a way, it’s sort of like a meta-commentary on that exact message. Even if this is fiction, in the end, choosing what is true or not is entirely up to you.
One of the comments in the screen of the 6th trial "Kyoko is my waifu"
I just love kodaka I love the danganronpa series and I'm excited to see you go full time!!!!
It’s so great to hear your going full time on RUclips! You’ve earned it! I can’t wait for the awesome videos that are coming up!
I've been waiting for a video I'm happy you finally got to upload one :) I'm learning how stressful it is to make these because I'm working on a danganronpa video now but I hope to be as great at it as you are :)
There is a lot of anime being referenced in the game, especially by Tsumugi, also there are two voice actors whose characters have the same status as the previous characters they have voiced.
Fun Fact! In the English dub version, every voice actor has voiced a Danganronpa character in the past
Congratulations about going full-time! Also I would recommend streaming DDLC, its a shorter game and there are lots of Easter eggs throughout the game that you might miss but highly committed fans would notice, but do whatever is easiest. Also looking forward to how you handle v3 character analysises after the whole big reveal at the end
Also also it would be great if you could give Ishimaru a character analysis, but I know you'll be very busy with all the stuff you're doing on the channel
4:24 This triggers EVERYTHING in my body.I LOVE Gonta,Tsumugi and Ryoma!Not to mention Angie is my favorite character!Who took the poll?Imma slap whoever dislikes ma girl Angie
Ayyye, You'll last day will be on my birthday! But anyway, I respect Kodaka so much more than what I already did after watching this video. It is so nice to see someone who is making what they want to make and not necessarily catering to the fans. I think this gives Danganronpa the kick is has always had.
"Being angry is acceptable"
YEAH I'M ANGRY RIGHT NOW! ALL OF MY FAVORITE BOYS DIED!!!
Kinda wish Kaede lived and the master mind was her twin sister but missed opportunity.
I wish the beginning happened the same way, but swap Pooichi with Kaede.
Weeby, if it's possible, do you think in the future you might do a video on why some people did not like the Danganronpa 3 anime? I just finished playing Danganronpa 2 and I plan on starting the anime soon. I do love your analysis videos and I liked your review on the anime and it would be interesting to see why it was mixed.
Thanks!
OwlFanatic i recomend you to play danganronpa ultradespair girls before watching the anime. Sorry for my english XD
Yes, look the gameplay or play it!!
Congrats weeby for chasing your dreams to do what you love! I look forward to seeing where you take your channel and can’t wait for that Ouma video! :3
I'm sure you've looked into it, and forgive me if it already exists, but if you're going full-time, you should definitely start plugging Patreon as additional revenue.
5:59 I shall call him Afro Boy. It's a shame we'll never see him meet up with MegaManager.
Congratulations!!!!! I’m so happy for you! I will always support you and your channel!
Fans: We hate the ending
Kodaka: Good.
Wow, congratulations on being able to do this full time! I’ll be looking forward to seeing what comes next.
I read that Kodaka got a bit upset after hearing Rantaro's VA do his lines. Kodaka loved it so much that he wanted Rantaro to live longer but since he was too far into the script he had no choice but to leave it as it is.
Rantaro's voice is just so nice
My favorite character is Tsumugi and before I watched the game I predicted that she would be the killer at some point. After the 5th chapter I was starting to think that she was actually good into I saw the twist which made me love her more.
Also have any of you noticed that in every game, the first execution starts with being dragged by a chain (by the neck ofc) Leon was dragged to the poll in which he was strapped into, teruteru was dragged outside to a poll as well, and kaede was dragged to the piano 😳
I like these trivia vid and congrats on doing RUclips full time.
I can’t even imagine how you’d do a copycat crime of a Danganronpa murder. In fact, I hope people try because it would absolutely fail.
10:23 fandom says otherwise
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS. IT BEGINNNNS
Squidni Anderson
Congrats on going full time on RUclips!! Looking forward to your future videos!
VA of Kaede be like: Mr. Kodaka, i'm danganronpa's biggest fan!
Kodaka: alright! You're gonna die first then!
Another fun fact I found pretty interesting is the reference to Keebo's name since the word "hope" is pronounced "kibou" (希望) in Japanese which makes him indeed the new ultimate (robot) hope I guess, haha
Congrats on being able to quit your job its a big step to take good luck with the channel and you know well always support whatever you do with the channel :) (also can't wait for that ddlc playthrough)
congratulations going full time with youtube!! I really enjoy your videos :) best DR content
I find it hilarious how Kodaka and the whole team do so much just because they can. Like for the second game, they told him he could make it in the same style as the first so he gives them an entire island. They make a joke and hey boss look who I just hired. They kill off characters because they’re sick of looking at them and Kodaka writes in Monomi getting beaten up to vent his personal frustration. And in this one he just wants his fan base to fight each other and that’s just hilarious to me.
Saihara's beta design also reminds me of Takemichi Yukimaru (Mondo's hit list target in DRAE).
I really like Kodaka’s point of view on his games
4:30 Weeby said that Kaeda got first but it shows Maki in first in the picture
Which one got first?
Pretty sure it was Kaede.
I think the maki one is a preview of the love hotel
rantaro will never meet his sisters.
shuichi will never be able to love again.
everyone hated kokichi, making him secretly depressed.
dice died in a fire, and kokichi never knew.
So Kodaka’s favorite v3 character is Tsumugi? Cool
My favourite danganronpa tbh
Congrats son becoming a full time youtuber Weeby! You can only get bigger from here!
Best of luck with your RUclips venture
6:21 My favorite beta ever in the whole wide world of everything else.
Basically, Chapter 3 is the culprit repeating words like Because, Forgive, and Apologize.
Great video and best of luck with full time YT! :-)
Nice video Weeby!!!
Just because Shirogane's the mastermind, doesn't mean people can't love her. Right? I love her anyway.
I love Tsumugi
Literally no-one Appropriate username for that opinion
NotAGoodUsername360 :(
Absolutely disgusting
MrConredsX what's disgusting? My opinion?
I liked Tsumugi a lot more after the game when there started to be some evidence that she was memory wiped into being the mastermind. And since we're talking about Tsumugi, is it possible she lied about the cause of her cospox, it seems to be real, but the only time we see it is when she does a half cosplay of kaede. Maybe if she had a wig and tried to act like her, she wouldn't have broken out with it. Just a thought
i hope your kaede analysis video is just you talking about your life and what you do everyday and junk
The thing with the 53rd Episode went over my head, so this was good to know.^^
Also congrats Weeby, glad to see more of you in the future.
4:44 Conspiracy Theory Spotted.
The one execution that is did not want to see through the end was Kaede’s*cries* Not to mention that Kaede’s love hotel scene is the cutest thing I have ever witness.Thanks Weeby for such intriguing facts:)
interesting, i found kaedes to be the worst by a wide margin for me
I think it's the best execution in the series, but I refuse to ever watch it again. Hell I almost quit the entire series after they pulled that shit cuz she was literally the only enjoyable thing about the game. xD Her interactions with everyone were actually fun. Poochi's dialogue is the most boring shit in the world.
I kinda felt like they shouldn’t have added the epilogue to the game. It feels a bit like they’re trivializing everything that had just happened by allowing survivors. I mean sure I absolutely love the characters but I think letting them die would’ve been more satisfying. It also opens up the possibility of a sequel, which is a whole other can of worms... do I want one? Maybe. Do we need one? Probably not... overall though NDRV3 was by far my favorite in the series, and I have very few criticisms of it as a whole.
Love the video Weeby!
