Fun fact: the reason why he does that is because Taka believes the only way a man can have a true bond with another man is if they both see each other naked. That’s probably why he’s asking Makoto to do that lol.
if you were his friend makoto then you would've at least tried to comfort him after mondo died but no none of y'all even tried helping him except for hiro 😡😡😡 (sorry im still salty about this lmao)
@@karmascoffin Blame Celeste. Hifumi may of killed Ishimaru, but he only did so due to manipulation. Not saying Hifumi was in the right, but he wouldn't of turned to murder if he wasn't told that Ishimaru was blackmailing Celeste.
Reminder: Takas backstory was so dark that they had to cut it from the game. They had to cut a backstory from a game about _MURDER_ because it was too dark. Just think about that for a second-
I think they said it was too depressing, not exactly dark, to put in the game. I bet he was just really heavily bullied because of his personality, plus the thing with his uncle. That being said, his mom IS never mentioned. Maybe something terrible happened to her?
Thinking out loud: Taka might be an example of a Neurodivergent High Achiever at school- so many expectations on him, no idea how to socialise and was taught to only ever think/be one way- Poor lad, I want to hug him so bad
Taka is definitely my favorite character in the 1st game, but I still can’t believe that ‘professor’ Makoto still agrees with Taka to strip down so they can see their ‘true personalities’
I love that even though he's a moral compass and a quote on quote, "flawless honors student" they didn't make him serious all the time, in fact, most of his expressions are really bold and passionate! SPOILER ALERT: You can also tell hes not just a moral compass but a kid who wants a friend by looking at how he talks to mondo, you can tell he's not being serious and just being a kid. He clearly just wanted to help everyone end the killing game and have a friend, he's so sweet oml- the boy didn't have to dIeEeEeee *cries*
Taka is my favorite male character in the entire series. And the main reason is that he taught me something that none of the other characters did. That is the meaning of effort. I first got into Danganronpa about a year ago, right around the end of the first semester of 8th grade, and I was immediately drawn to Taka as one of my favorite members of the cast. And when playing his FreeTime events, I burst out into tears. Mainly because up until 8th grade, I was seen by many people I knew as a "genius". I had perfect grades during my entire school career up until that point. But right before I got into the series, I was reaching a point where I was failing my 8th grade English Class. That was my first time ever seeing true failure, and I couldn’t deal with it. I became a nearly hollow shell of who I was normally, cutting myself off from my friends and other support systems. I had also been so independent growing up because my parents were nearly always at work, so I didn’t know how to ask for any help. I felt that I needed to do all of this on my own. And through all of that, I was only able to keep myself up through Danganronpa, it made me smile when I barely was feeling any happiness at that point in my life. Reading Taka's events for the first time made me change my outlook on everything I have ever done. And by the end of the 8th grade school year, I had managed to get my grade back up to a level where I passed my class and was able to move onto high school(which is being difficult right now because of the situation in the world) Overall Kiyotaka Ishimaru is one of the best characters ever to me, I feel that he should’ve survived and it broke my heart when he didn’t. Thank you for reading, Truly Yours, Hayami Hinata
I relate to his character a lot to be honest. Students always see as the smart one, but that's I spend a lot of time on my school work leaving me little time for much else. Like him, it left me a bit socially stunted(then again, that likely also has to do with being diagnosed on the autism spectrum at age 3), but I can say I'm improving.
The fact that nobody cared when he died breaks my soul. He deserved so much better. This innocent, passionate and selfless boy deserved to survive. He just wanted to change the world.
{{!! SPOILERS !! }} Man..Taka is so precious like..THE WAY HE GETS AFTER MONDO GETS PUNISHED IS SO SAD!! I swear Alter Ego did a good thing when he changed into Mondo for just a bit to most likely make Taka feel better Alter Ego is such a good person along with Taka and I honestly think Taka needed Alter Ego more than Hifumi ((No offence to Hifumi tho it's just Taka had a deeper meaning to have to have Alter Ego around)) and when I saw him die I was like..MAH BBY BOI NOOO!! WHYYY!! Like it's heartbreaking when your favourite character dies and I think we can all agree on that all in all Taka deserved to live and I love him because he's best boi 💞 May he rest in peace ✌️ 💞 💖
You know what’s more sad? Is that his death was almost meaningless,he was meant to die so hifumi would get distracted and celeste would kill him from behind (which going according to plan,but hifumi got a little excited and killed him),and when first knew this i was like:WHYYYYYY DDDDDDIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDDNNNNN’’’’’’’’’TTTTTTTTTTT YYYYYOOOOOUUUUUUUU LLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTT MMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYYY PPPPPPRRRRREEEECCCCCIIIIOOOOOOUUUUUUUSSSSSSSS BBBBBBBOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYY SSSSSUUUUUUURRRRRRRVVVVVVVVVVVIIIIIIIIIVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEE(╥﹏╥)(╥﹏╥)(╥﹏╥)(╥﹏╥)(╥﹏╥)
I AGREE WITH THAT ! I honestly wanted him to live, he would be a cool survivor. He had SO MUCH room for development I 😭😭😭 Also this is just my opinion, but Hifumi probably just wanted to put his dick in Alter ego's usb port or something. Taka wanted it because it reminded him of his friend.
I have a theory. So you know how he was saying how you can tell who is trustworthy based on what they look like naked? Well, remember that sauna scene with mondo? I think that at some point after Makoto leaves, Mondo caved and look off his clothes showing Taka his naked body. Wich formed the "Ultimate bro bond" we see soon after.
I think I picked the right time to watch this... when he talked about genius vs effort it struck a chord with me. I've always studied humanities in school because I had a natural talent for it, but recently I realized that it's not what I'm actually interested in pursuing... I want to go into science. I almost failed science when I took it back in high school, I got discouraged and abandoned it because I was "bad at it". So I've been worried going back into it that I won't excel the way I'm used to in other subjects. But like Kiyotaka says, a genius can't recover when they trip and fall. Someone who has to put a lot of effort into what they do won't give up so easily. So... I like to think he'd be proud of me for working hard to understand science instead of just half-heartedly continuing humanities. I'm probably oversharing at this point but I just really appreciate Taka's character for sending that message, I needed to hear it.
Honestly I really like to watch taka speak when I’m feeling discouraged or want to give up, because he really is a protagonist type character with his Keep going personality. He pushes people to their best potential and pushes himself, which I think it’s a good aspect for a character. I also want to get into science, as I’ve always been interested in it and it really is my passion. Keep going and don’t give up!
All ive been doing for the past hour ish is look at Taka stuff-- Do i regret anything How dare you ask me such a foul question Thank you for reading and if your a Kiyotaka fan ilysm please remember how nice and compassionate you are, if you can see past Taka's loud exterior and accept him your just amazing I STG I ADORE YOU YOUR AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGG Oki ty bye bye ^^
oh...my...god...I never thought this would be so eye opening, confusing, saddening, adorable, and weird in just a few chapters, he has now earned 1st place favorite character
@@spmfoonl Spoiler Aw shit man Im still angry for that like his death was the most... I don't know how to say it like the most useless nothing came out of it like just a bigger case but like... Man
I think that if Junko wasn't the mastermind then Ishimaru would have made a good master mind. Maybe, he would think that being a genius leads to cutting corners, corruption, and unfairness; so he tries to kills off all of the young geniuses and becomes a dictator. At least I think that's better then Junko's reason, which comes off as " I was just born this way and now I have to make it everyone else's problem"
When he told me this i tried to walk off, but he yanked off my jacket and by pure instinct i punched him in the nose. 0/10, would never do again, because he started crying. 🙃🔫
Yeah, I'm not trying to say that Hiro is bad or anything, I just think that if Taka would have survived and moved past Mondo's death, instead of developing D.I.D, I would have preferred that Taka would have survived. I do understand where you come from though.
I relate to him so much that it’s painful. The extreme pressure on yourself that manifests in hard work, overachievement, bossiness, bragging, perfectionism, and suppression of “undesirable” thoughts/feelings. The desperation for care and pride from others because you need people to build you up from the debilitating inner critic tearing you down, yet your own pride and dedication to staying focused and sticking to your values impedes your ability to be vulnerable. The wave of depression when your life takes an unprecedented turn or you feel like you’re losing control, so you isolate and fail to take care of yourself as your passion and energy are fading. Finally, the moment your mind snaps under all of the stress and you become a completely different person from yourself; a hyperactive, reckless, crass mess who has no regard for their safety or well-being…quite literally a “fuck it, I don’t care what happens.” I suffer from GAD and BP I and it’s definitely been rough to manage (and I suspect I may have OCPD and BPD too but can’t confirm this). It’s startling how often I completely see myself in Taka. Edit: ALSO NOT TAKA GOING INTO HIS SPECIAL INTERESTS IN DETAIL AND NOT KNOWING HOW TO INTERACT IN SOCIAL SITUATIONS!! AS AN AUTISTIC PERSON THAT IS AUTISTIC RIZZ RIGHT THERE
BEST BOY! BEST BOY BEST BOY! (my opinions) Best THH Boy: Taka Best THh Girl: Hina We stan Taka in this household and if anyone invalidates his trauma i’ll invalidate their kneecaps
I bet that if he ever did become prime minister, he would do an amazing job. Taka has spent so much of his life learning right from wrong and has mainly picked what he believes is right, not what would benefit him in any way. He's an honest person and I know for a fact he'd do a way better job than his grandfather. Its sad that he couldn't make it out alive but I hope that he's happy with Mondo.
Being a leader is still very difficult though, even a selfless one. It’s a lot more complicated then “I’m selfish so I’m not gonna be good”. One man can make a difference but one man can’t change everything alone
@@autocorrect3055 that's why I said what he thinks is right, never necessarily said people would agree or that it's the best decision. I'm saying he'd do a better job than his grandfather because he would do what he thinks is best for the country unlike his grandad who got mixed up in a corruption scandal because he got too cocky and arrogant and ran away from the issues he needed to face to avoid being scrutinised any further. Never said Taka would change everything in the country, I said he would do a better job than his grandad.
It's depressing to me that I only started to truly love him when he started grieving and then it was too late to be his friend. I relate to him on so many levels and he is a big inspiration to me
Taka you poor akward bean, socializing is just hard for him! I never realized how cool videos of the full path of these characters would be. Like seeing Makoto actually take the time time and effort to deal with Taka's odd ways and help/befriend him is heartwarming.
why does he have 5 crying sprites should i be worried-
yes
Plus he only has like two smiling sprites. And one of them is a nervous smile. I'm very sad

@lisztomanicloserNo, it was all of Celeste's accounts. She has so many accounts because she lies about her identity so often
I think that if Junko wasn't the mastermind then Ishimaru would have made a good master mind.
Maybe, he would think that being a genius leads to cutting corners, corruption, and unfairness; so he tries to kills off all of the young geniuses and becomes a dictator.
At least I think that's better then Junko's reason, which comes off as " I was just born this way and now I have to make it everyone else's problem"
This actually makes a lot of sense, i would love to see this.
I ruined the 69 comments to appreciate our baby boi
Your our savior ^^
The correct decision
Sometimes we have to make sacrifices
@Rocky🐙 meme is the correct spelling. As for why 69 is a meme, it’s the name of a sex position
7:04 Excuse me?
Lol he is so innocent...
He is too innocent, we must protect him at all costs
When he told me this i tried to walk off, but he yanked off my jacket and by pure instinct i punched him in the nose. 0/10, would never do again, because he started crying. 🙃🔫
@@mondoowada4443 YOU PUNCHED HIM, WHO WOULDNT START CRYING MY DUDE 😭
@@ToffeeCoffee001 ME I GUESS I MEAN LIKE HE YANKED OFF MY JACKET AND IT SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME IDK
The fact that Taka doesn’t know what a NORMAL CONVERSATION IS😭✋🏾❤️
I hate that Makoto calls Taka annoying because I would have loved a friend like him in school
I agree with the statement that Kiyotaka is best boy. Tell them, Naegi.
You know it's funny. I was just thinking that because of Taka's whole spiel about geniuses, Byakuya's just the type of person he'd dislike...
This dude too precious my fucking heart is melting away
He ran off? RAN? OMG
HE RAN IN THE HALLS OMG
@@banana9685 HE IS SO BAD 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
@@kokoromomoiro7065 HE BROKE HIS OWN SCHOOL ENVIRONMENTAL RULES 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
NONO IT WAS SPEEDWALKING
@@misqry9653 OH OK
i miss him so much, he’s baby & he didn’t deserve to die :((
8:58 so who’s gonna tell him....
🥲
oh my god iveI've never seen his freetime events before but how I love him *sO MUCH MORE*
His "I'm very happy right now" is too cute 😭
*Sigh* If I had to summarize Danganronpa in one sentence: Wow I really love this character and now he/she is dead.
If I had to in 5 words: Despair and *don’t get attached*
I'M SO HAPPY MY FAV DANGANRONPA 2 CHARACTER (fuyuhiko) IS A SURVIVOR
Taka is the _Ultimate Good Boi_ change my mind.
Taka should have survived rather than Yasahiro.
Edit: Holy cow, how did a comment that wasn't thought out at all get so much attention-
Anonymous Female Online TRUE
I personally like both Taka and Hiro :v
I would've liked for Taka to survive, but I don't want Hiro to die in his place.
Yeah, I'm not trying to say that Hiro is bad or anything, I just think that if Taka would have survived and moved past Mondo's death, instead of developing D.I.D, I would have preferred that Taka would have survived. I do understand where you come from though.
The should have at least outlived hifumi
I agree, but replace Asahina with Sakura ùwú
1:12 Naegi you’re wrong
Taka is my fav character so far :3 Too bad he died ;-; ;-; ;-;
Sameeeee :(
He is so innocent an sweet
I'm about to make a au where he doesn't die because of this :(
@@LienSBucket Did you do it?
I would totally die for this guy. So precious 😢
Taka: sTRiP dOwN nAkEd
Naegi: this is normal...
Me: this is enjoyable...
I relate to him so much that it’s painful.
The extreme pressure on yourself that manifests in hard work, overachievement, bossiness, bragging, perfectionism, and suppression of “undesirable” thoughts/feelings.
The desperation for care and pride from others because you need people to build you up from the debilitating inner critic tearing you down, yet your own pride and dedication to staying focused and sticking to your values impedes your ability to be vulnerable.
The wave of depression when your life takes an unprecedented turn or you feel like you’re losing control, so you isolate and fail to take care of yourself as your passion and energy are fading.
Finally, the moment your mind snaps under all of the stress and you become a completely different person from yourself; a hyperactive, reckless, crass mess who has no regard for their safety or well-being…quite literally a “fuck it, I don’t care what happens.”
I suffer from GAD and BP I and it’s definitely been rough to manage (and I suspect I may have OCPD and BPD too but can’t confirm this). It’s startling how often I completely see myself in Taka.
Edit: ALSO NOT TAKA GOING INTO HIS SPECIAL INTERESTS IN DETAIL AND NOT KNOWING HOW TO INTERACT IN SOCIAL SITUATIONS!! AS AN AUTISTIC PERSON THAT IS AUTISTIC RIZZ RIGHT THERE
dude this makes me believe that isn’t a killing game
Y'all don't actually realized how adorable this man is, like I'm not even joking😭
BEST BOY!
BEST BOY BEST BOY!
(my opinions)
Best THH Boy: Taka
Best THh Girl: Hina
We stan Taka in this household and if anyone invalidates his trauma i’ll invalidate their kneecaps
sakura best girl no cap 😌🤚
@@xiiwolfy so damn true!
I bet that if he ever did become prime minister, he would do an amazing job. Taka has spent so much of his life learning right from wrong and has mainly picked what he believes is right, not what would benefit him in any way. He's an honest person and I know for a fact he'd do a way better job than his grandfather. Its sad that he couldn't make it out alive but I hope that he's happy with Mondo.
Being a leader is still very difficult though, even a selfless one. It’s a lot more complicated then “I’m selfish so I’m not gonna be good”. One man can make a difference but one man can’t change everything alone
@@autocorrect3055 that's why I said what he thinks is right, never necessarily said people would agree or that it's the best decision. I'm saying he'd do a better job than his grandfather because he would do what he thinks is best for the country unlike his grandad who got mixed up in a corruption scandal because he got too cocky and arrogant and ran away from the issues he needed to face to avoid being scrutinised any further. Never said Taka would change everything in the country, I said he would do a better job than his grandad.
It's depressing to me that I only started to truly love him when he started grieving and then it was too late to be his friend. I relate to him on so many levels and he is a big inspiration to me
Ok, now I'm really motivated to take school seriously because of him...
When you're out trick or treating and you actually listen to the signs that tell you to only take one piece of candy: 0:10
Seriously, Taka had the most realistic reaction to a friend of his dying, like literally.
Taka you poor akward bean, socializing is just hard for him! I never realized how cool videos of the full path of these characters would be. Like seeing Makoto actually take the time time and effort to deal with Taka's odd ways and help/befriend him is heartwarming.
Not me crying because of Taka's sppech about genius
Taka and Mondo so bared themselves to each other in the sauna. No one can change my mind
theres no way they didnt JUST bare themselves..
Lmao what if you got his underwear like in sdr2
My treasure.
i'm pretty sure you do- but in school mode (like island mode in sdr2)
you get them in school mode actually, they're pure white
Kiyotaka Ishimaru Hand em over 🤲
@@xxGhepoStanxx that's rather um..how do i put this...
unwholesome.
HE'S SUCH A BABY OH MY GODDDD
IM SORRY BUT TAKA HAS SUCH A LONG JAW ???
He’s so pure, protect him please
GOD DAMMIT WHY DID I TYPE THIS
Because Taka should have been protected he was a sweetheart
Why did he have to die?! 😭
SZI Park it’s bc of that fat walrus
@@457R4L_xX omg fat walrus
bean soup or hifumi
No it’s because of that edgy goth girl who listens to billie eyelash tricking the nerd weeb to killed him lmao
@@karotie8326 I cant breath. You deserve an oscar or award thing- ie I STG
happy birthday taka!
I’m happy I found this video.
Ishimaru, although fictional, always made me smile.
2:09 *same Makoto, same.*
I like how makoto doesn’t even question taka for telling him to strip
"I am very happy right now" WHO SAYS THAT? IT JUST MAMES HIM MORE WHOLESOME.
This sweet cinnamon roll didn't deserve to die 😭😭
I LOVE HIM I WANT TO CRY
My beautiful precious baby boy 🥺
I wish he could’ve lived 😭
I never realized that Kiyotaka is basically Nagisa but not forced to study.
He’s such a good boy 🥺😭
