53:20 headcannon: Himiko still owns that bear jacket in the final game. Bears used to be her favorite animal, but once she met Monokuma and the killing game started, bears were ruined for her and she got rid of it. 😔
I was thinking, regarding the Heterochromia designs, I'd love it if the eyes are used as a subtle hint whether he is telling truth or is lying, by making him wink (since he always winks anyway). And then, for crucial moments in trials, he'd lie without closing his eyes, to confuse the player even further
I like it better that you can't tell when he's lying or not. However, I do like his Heterochromia design more. Since his final one looks a little too exaggerated compared to every other character. It could make him look more intimidating if his eyes glowed in different colors at times though.
I love this idea so much. It would help enhance the lying part of his character without getting too old too quickly Also another thing about the beta design I like better is the baggier looking clothing. The bigger clothing gives off a more childish demeanor
maki: nearly chokes kokichi to death after he reveals her to be so good at murder she was given the title of Super Duper High School Level Best Murderer and is therefore a massive threat to all of them literally the entire cast: 21:39
uggghhh i love the second maki design, it just in general looks really cool and pretty and it also would’ve made the assassin reveal SO much more shocking and unexpected. ugh it’s such a good design i honestly really wish they went with it
50:19 I love this design for Maki so much! She looks so adorable! Himiko with the bear hood looks so freaking cute, too! "Let me see what you have!" Ryoma Elf Boi: "A knife!!" "No!"
Her final is still my favourite but omg I absolutely love Kaedes beta design! Especially the little hat thingy (I've forgot what those hats are called oops) like.. KAEDE WOULD TOTALLY WEAR THAT WITH A CASUAL OUTFIT ITS PERFECT FOR HER SKKDFNKSHFKZ I also love how she has a jazzy vibe to her in the beta design. Though I love her final design just as much!
So something I really wanted as fanservice in a fanservice game in danganronpa S was each character getting an SSR card with one of their beta designs, would have been sooooo amazing, but alas, the idea shall live in on my dreams
Can you imagine Ryoma's tragic backstory being attached to that humanoid thumb with a goatee? EDIT: I remember how much people on Tumblr were screaming about how Danganronpa is by & for misogynists solely cuz of the protagonist switch in DRV3.
At 18:17, the eyepatch could also be a chuunibyou thing? Especially in conjunction with the bandages and sorcery. Feels like that delusion of mystic grandure fits his personality and could reinforce his righteous justification for his murderous behavior. The evil eye under an eyepatch being a common chuuni trope and all.
Let me tell you, the Tsumugi drink making art, the push up scene, and her general design from the waist down was always “sexy” to me. I loved her character in general. My only thing is hat her long hair made her design a little too bland with the blue on blue, so I’d rather her hair be shorter (which would be good for wigs) or a different color than her outfit.
Honestly? If Spike actually went and put these beta designs into decadence, it might actually sell a few more copies, since it would be a neat idea to have more costumes other than "color variant" or "swimsuits"
This is really hilarious because I just finished V3 like right when this was posted OwO The ending was really shocking, like I had gotten spoilers (they actually didn't end up being too big of spoilers, the one I was upset I got spoiled ended up being kinda obvious lol), but I really didn't see the end coming!!! Gonna save this to watch later since I have a paper and exam coming up in the next 2 days, but I'm SO EXCITED to watch this!! I love all of your content, keep up the great work❤❤✨✨
I want Maki’s face and personality with the child caregiver design Similar to Shirogane’s second last design where I want to keep the design but give her Tsumugi’s face and pose but Weeby’s personality I also REALLY like Maki’s last design, though I kinda want her to wear lighter colours to combat her edge. I also admit I’m not really a fan of the over dramatized pigtails. I think Maki’s third-last one is actually my ideal design for Tsumugi And I kinda wish they added cards to her bear parka and Yumeno’s canon face for Himiko’s first design
The thing about character design is they start out intentionally over exaggerated so they can see what aspects they like and slowly tone it down. That’s why most of the concept art looks “weird” or used the generic protagonist face at first. They’re just laying the groundwork that they can build on as they find the character. It’s like sculpting, you slap on a chunk of clay and push it all around until you find the image hiding beneath.
The only one I feel like we were robbed of is Keade’s beta design. I love her hat and definitely prefer it to her current design. However, Keade’s current design is still really good and glad we still got something great
The last beta version of Kiibo actually is in the final game for a part of 6th chapter As he got hit by a rock during one of the executions that broke off his Ahoge for a a bit
47:21 yes FINALLY All of her designs are beautiful 🤩 I actually king maki cause children like me like a lot and that I actually completely hate them They are terrifying considering I’m the oldest cousin in my family I’m young rn But I KNOW when I’m like 16 I’m gonna have to look after my cousins
The Kaeda Beta Design with that hat makes me think we were originally going to have the protagonist swap be from Shuichi to Kaede. It would explain Shuichi's audition tape describing his execution, which would have had more weight to it than it did in the final product. Maybe next time we'll get an execution for an ultimate detective?
10:27 this singular design is what makes me believe he was originally meant to have a complete different talent. I want to know what this characters talent would be and I want to know whether or not they would’ve survived. Because that character being a victim is way too obvious as opposed to Kokichi in the final game. I want to know what this characters Talent and feet would be because it’s not a supreme leader
Fun fact : before I got into the danganronpa fandom, I thought shuichi, kokichi, nagito, rantaro, and korekiyo were girls because they all could pass as a girl. Shuichi : could be a girl that likes having short hair. Kokichi : his eyes and hair could pass as a girls. Nagito : he looks like he has fine eyeliner. Rantaro : could be a tomboy but could be a girl. Korekiyo : I mean, look at him. His hair is long and it looks like he has eyeliner on.
I don't get how people have so much trouble with boy vs. Girl characters. I never seen any character above as a "girl" because its usually obvious what they're going for once you look at them.
Oh no, Ibuki Shuichi is hot, so is slim Gonta, and Group Leader Kaito, and Inventor Miu, and Unhinged Miu, and Long Hair Kirumi, and Gothic Lolita Kirumi, and Sociable Maki. Oh no.
Honestly I think I like kokichi's original design only because the beta designs you put in s made me think more homeless person or Rags type style dinner supreme leader and the jacket in the and the gloves remind me of despair nagito
Those mastermind shuichi AUs are actually kinda interesting Especially the ones where kaede lives The mastermind reveal would be super shocking if it was the actual game Cause considering kaede and shuichi were already kinda close at the start, imagine kaede lived They would definitely be like good friends,
57:00 I liked this one if they added somewhat of a hat She looks like a artist still Though the official design has that jacket which tones the fact of art Edit: tones the fact of art…. What?
Honestly all the designs are nice but I'm not sure I'd feel the same way abt the characters if they went for a different design. I cant explain why tho
The 4th and 5th ryoma beta designs actually look pretty good, the 5th one I would’ve been okay with as ryoma’s final design Edit: the 7th ryoma beta design has two key differences, the beanie horns are more curved and devil like and he actually smokes unlike his current version who has candy cigarettes
I think Mui design would have been good if they would have changed their personality I think with the face she has she our personality would more match someone of the likes of kaito or nekomaru in a way that I feel like they would be the always happy character that lives in their own world
i think this is a bit of a unpopulair opinion but i honestly loved tsumugi in the game she is one of my faverite's from v3 i also realy like her design i think she is one of the best looking charackters in danganronpa
Okay yeah, that backwards cap and short-legged overalls look for Miu is REALLY good, and I admit makes her look a little like a gender-swap Kazuichi.
Might be why they didn’t do it. To keep her more distinct.
Kokichi's first beta design looks like lloyd garmadon before season 1 episode 10

That’d actually be so cool

I have seen headcannons that Kokichi has heterochromia hit wears purple contacts to cover it up
I love this idea so much. It would help enhance the lying part of his character without getting too old too quickly

Ah yes, a fellow Hoshi enjoyer.

Good taste
Same, when I saw the first one. I almost cried /j
51:12 I don't know why but this specific beta design of Maki gives me vibes of how I would imagine an Ultimate Toy Maker would look.
That's a good idea for a fanmade charecter!
My abandoned toy maker oc reading this in the distance: 👁👄👁
I really dig every ones beta designs especially miu's.
