If you think about it Leon could've actually been an interesting character. He's an ultimate that doesn't like their own talent and wants to follow their own dream...being a musician.. Imagine him and Ibuki starting a band or something...too bad Edit: 700 likes omg ty let's all cry over 11037's sad fate
but it's sad that the only (or at least the main) reason why he wanted to become a musician was because of that girl at the barbershop. so I'm curious on what his actual dream would be if he never met her.
@@whatever4115 i dont think sayaka was the girl at the barber shop. i think he just liked sayaka when all the characters were introduced to each other. cause sayaka was the ultimate pop sensation which caused most boys to automatically like her. and he also probably liked her because he wanted to become a musician (more specifically a singer) so that also made him fond of her because she was a singer. also he asked makoto what type of guy sayaka was into, which he already knew the barber girl was into musicians. :)

I think that Leon is the most realistic in Danganronpa. He had the most realistic reaction to being found guilty, he literally fell to the floor and cried, and then he started banging at the walls in an attempt to get out. It was obvious he had no idea that he would find himself in that situation.
No Offense But back in the beta of Danganronpa Leon Was EVERYWHERE On the Teasers ( Search if u Want ) And The Dev Team got Tired At Looking at him so he died first. So it is kinda ok he got executef
Doing these events actually made me feel even more sorry for him when got that unfair brutal execution. Sure he killed Sayaka meaning he isn't totally innocent. But remember his mind was literally broken due to fear and paranoia after Sayaka tried to murder him as part of a plot to graduate by both murdering him, and framing Makoto for the crime in one shot. Like he said in the anime during his breakdown after being convicted of Sayaka's death "It's not my fault." "I had no choice she tried to kill me." "I had to protect us from her." "I mean she could've gone after any one of us." "If you were in my shoes YOU WOULD'VE DONE THE SAME DAMN THING!" So yeah not saying Leon's innocent, but saying Sayaka is 100% the innocent victim in chapter 1 is a complete lie cause she isn't.
neither of them are innocent: Leon didn't have to go all the way as far to get his toolkit to kill Sayaka. He could have ended it there and told everyone what Sayaka tried to do, but he continued with the plan of killing her after getting the bathroom door open. In Sayaka's case, it's fairly obvious what she did wrong. But in her defense, she didn't know about the trials, the punishments, and the fact that everyone else would be killed if she got away with killing. In the beginning, Monokuma only told them to kill without being seen, and they'd be let out. Also, Sayaka had one of the most justified reasons to try and kill Leon: to save her band members, who were practically family to her. I'm not saying Sayaka was right to try and kill, but I *am* defending her motive. Meanwhile, Celes had the worst reason to try and kill yet she gets a lot of love (although this is a different story). In the end, both made mistakes that got them killed. Neither are innocent, but I love both characters and wish they'd gotten further into the game/storyline.

Top Hat Devil {Cæl} it seems he does enjoy baseball but it contradicts with him not liking to be sweaty, shaving his head etc I see it like this in the heat of the moment while playing baseball he loves it but hated the aftermath of being sweaty and being forced to cut his hair just to play.

Leon and so many other characters could’ve gotten so much character development. If they were just gonna kill them off first, then they should at least let them have more screen time
@@emsub1199 I actually don't mind her dying first. Like kill her for all I care, just why waste Leon with her? Leon had a lot of room for development and was unique and interesting in general, so yeah...I'm sad.
It's just unfair that the reason he's alive is for comedic relief. Like yeah, he's fun to be around (I genuinely think so), but there's just no depth in his character. He's not that smart and he doesn't contribute much. I don't hate him but he's one of those characters I like, but when they die I just go "oh he passed away? aww :(" then move on. Like...Mondo can get his gang together and fight despair, or Taka can soon lead the country to a good hopeful path, or Leon could use his fame to influence people then soon pursue music to help recover the world, and LOTS of other better characters that weedman survivor...
@@hugnboba I couldn’t agree more. There were so many ways they could’ve taken the storyline. They created so many well-written characters only to turn around and immediately kill them off. Personally, I think that Mondo, Sakura, Leon, Chihiro and Taka should’ve survived. They deserved to be further developed more than Hiro, Hina, and Toko imo (Toko had a lot of potential too but I think they milked the whole “Genocide Jack” thing).
imagine this: sayaka, leon, ibuki and kaede make a band *SPOILERS* also, in the anime 11037’s trial, leon literally had a mental breakdown, which i think we all would if we were voted guilty. he actually seems like his personality is interesting and he does portray human emotions very well from when we see him.
That's te thing I hate abt his character; the creators just want him dead. With this reason, you can replace Leon w anyone and it still would make sense. If only Leon wasn't base...
omgggg I played almost all his free time events but I missed one! He is my favorite character in the second game, I love him so much!!! The "ngh,,, get me out of here.... please" SHATTERED MY HEART HGFJFJ
Is it bad that I am crushing so hard on Leon??? Like, he died so early... I wish he could've lived for much longer so I can hang out with him some more...
Me being a fan of both Leon and Sayaka means I'm constantly conflicted because they both had reasonable reasons to do what they did, and I miss them both :(
The reason Leon quite literally got dragged by that metal thingy to his execution: Monokuma knew Leon hated baseball so he dragged him to the batting cage Monokuma knew that making Leon get by killed my baseballs would be the absolute worst way to go. Poor Leon he deserved better. I miss him so fricking much :’(
gosh it's so unfair for him.. think about it lol he wanted to be a musician but failed since he died :( he was forced to shave hair he was the unlucky one who got locked in this hell and why is he so underrated- he my fav character omg
Luxshana Jeyakumar i think sayaka’s plan to kill leon was like this Sayaka noticed that Leon had a crush on her and used that to her advantage by telling him to meet her alone at like 1:00 am, and Leon took the bait Also i think it would have been better for both of them if Leon thought about his decision first. He didnt HAVE to kill Sayaka, he could have left her there, went back to his room, and told somebody in the morning (maybe Makoto) (Actually yes, tell Makoto, even if he didnt know the rooms were switched) I blame Sayaka more than Leon, but really all this is 100% Junko’s fault tbh I bet Sayaka learned her lesson as soon as she fled to the bathroom
@@k3m0n0_v4mpii Yeah, but if he were to leave the room he could have possibly been killed. I think that Leon was like who would want to kill because that is wrong, so he probably thought like maybe they want to talk instead of being attacked. So I think Leon thought nothing would happen.
@@k3m0n0_v4mpii Actually Leon didn't kill Sayaka. Leon s case is not developed good in the game, in the manga (which is official and cannon) is shown whats actually happened. Basically Sayaka invite Leon in her room (Makoto s room)and attacked him,but he dogged and didn't get seriously hurt he didn't try to attack her, he had a little fear for his own life and actually tryed to calm Sayaka Maizono down.He tryed to grab the knife out of her hands so she can stop attacking. In the end Maizono, in all her fucked up wisdom, throws herself at Kuwata, essentially stabbing *herself* with the knife. Only.. it’s in Leon’s hand, and therefore, he is considered the culprit. Sayaka decided if she can't kill Leon then she would frame him for her suicide.And it actually works out since there are no cameras in the toilet and monokuma cant say for sure what actually happened so he executes leon anyway to kickstart the mutual killing game. #Leondidnothingwrong
Honestly, I think what you learn from Leon here is that he actually does like baseball. Wanting to be a musician is just some frivolous dream he has because of a cute girl, but now that he's trapped here and not able to play baseball for the longest time yet, he's actually upset and misses it
Its cool that he’s an Ultimate that doesn’t want to be the Ultimate he is I’d definitely like to see him pursue his music dream also i cannot unhear Shuichi no matter how hard
2:10 *Getting Shuichi's caged child singing flashbacks* So it could've worked for him to become a singer Now I'm even sadder he never got to make his dream true
I think the reason he wanted to play baseball again wasnt necessarily because he enjoyed it, but because its something familiar. He trapped in this scary unknown situation, so all he wants is something familiar and comforting, even if it is something he doesnt like
god i cant watch through them all, it hurts my head so much, he's pretty much a cookie cutter copy of the guy who gave me trust issues on a silver platter
Idc what anyone says, Leon didn’t deserve to get executed 😭💔. He could’ve been such an interesting character if he would’ve lived a little longer or at least had more screen time 😔. I hope this doesn’t offend anyone who likes Maizono, but attempting to kill Leon is one of the main reasons why I don’t favor her. Edit: Okay so looking back at it I honestly can't blame Sayaka for what she did. Although to most people it seems very insensitive, she had a good reason for doing so. I mean come on, she was a scared teenager trying to get out of a LITERAL killing game, and people still call her a "snake" or that she's fake cause she was going to pin the murder of makoto 💀 (despite Celestia doing way worse by manipulating Hifumi & no one seems to give her any flack for it 🤔, but I'm not even gonna get into that) . Even though she is still not one of my favorites, I must admit I do hate what happened to her and Leon in the end. Both were being pretty rational (at least for such a drastic situation) imo
Zero the Faceless ah, I meant I don’t favor her b/c she tried to kill Leon and was gonna frame Makoto for it. Looking more into it though, Sayaka apparently didn’t know if she threw the trial off by making everyone vote for Makoto that they’d all be executed except for her. So with her not knowing this she just thought after she “graduated” she’d call for help for the rest of em. Even though I don’t like her that much, I gotta admit it’s kinda sad how she went out
@@marinarasauce9853 I mean, if Leon killed Sayaka because he was scared, and the "if you vote incorrectly, everyone dies except the culprit" rule didn't change his mind about blaming Makoto, then I HIGHLY doubt it would be different for Sayaka. She planned to kill Leon and blame Makoto, so I highly doubt that she would back down once they get told that rule. I don't blame any of them though, being forced into a killing game would be pretty horrifying. Sorry if I came out as rude or nonsensical, I am really bad at explaining things whoops,,
@@knightmare.4 Ah no you're fine! You didn't come off that way at all 👍. And I definitely understand what your saying now. I made that comment back when I wasn't even all the way finished with the first game, so I didn't really get the whole everyone except the culprit dies situation yet.
Celeste already presented as a bitch in the first place, so it's not a surprise she'd betray and kill someone for her own gain. I think she doesn't get any flak because it's expected of Celeste to do what she did. I mean she is the Ultimate Gambler. Lying and manipulating is her thing. Meanwhile, Sayaka, who is introduced as a sweet girl, ends up having a twist where she tried to kill Leon and plans to frame Makoto for it, so she had more hate in the fandom than Celeste is because of this. I mean who wants a person who you thought is nice but turns out they're not after all?
I originally watched the anime, so when me and my friend were playing through it together, and he kept commenting on how much he liked Leon, I was just like "oh you poor fool,,, you poor poor fool"
Me and my girlfriend started watching Game Grump's playthrough of DR (which is actually how I got into DR in the first place), and we've caught up to where they are in the game right now, which is on the final chapter I think? Anyways, when we started watching, the two characters that I immediately became attached to were Leon and Taka. I was so damn upset when Leon turned out to be Sayaka's killer!! I mean, I kinda knew since her body was found, what with his name written on the wall and all, but part of me was hoping they'd pull a fuckin Ace Attorney on us and he was actually framed or something. My gf had watched the anime before, so she understood the story and kinda knew what to expect, and after Leon's execution, she was telling me how when she saw me getting all attached to Leon, she was like "oh shit, she's gonna be so fucking upset" and she was damn right 😭😭😭 So then once Leon died, I became overly attached to Taka, and that was fuckin devastating for me, too 😭😭😭😭 Just can't seem to learn my lesson, can I? They make these characters too god damn likable!!!!!!
To be honest, his reaction to his execution shook me the most because of how realistic it is... just imagine you are a talented high schooler whos been trapped in a school with other talented students to play a killing game. You can't trust anyone. Then one night, the hot singer girl invites you to her dorm. Being the horny teenager you are, you accept the invitation and go to the dorm. But OH GREAT YOU SCREWED UP BIG TIME BUDDY! She tried to attack you with a knife! What do you do? You quickly grab a sword in the room and block it, breaking her wrist and disarming her. She ran into the bathroom! Hmmm... the door is broken. Let's go get our tool kit and come back to destroy the door, and possibly win the killing game! We're back, now let's get the knife she dropped and KILL HER! *stab sound* There, you've done it. Some of your red hair is on the ground, which would make everyone know its you... cleaning time! Now, let's get rid of this bloody shirt. Off to the trash room we go! We got it in there. Hm... the incinerator is blocked by a gate... aha! You're great at throwing, use this crystal ball to activate it. Haha, all the evidence is gone. Nobody will ever know its you! Its the end of the class trial... there's evidence pointing towards you... Sayaka wrote "11037" in her own blood in the bathroom you killed her at. 11037... LEON. Also, the method of turning on the incinerator was barely possibly by any ordinary person! Except for... the ultimate baseball star! Also, one of your sleeves didn't burn and fell to the floor! You didn't wanna show anyone your tool kit because it is the only one showing signs of being you! OH MY DAYS, ITS OVER! ITS ALL OVER YOU'VE BEEN CAUGHT! You tried to plea it was self defense and that you didn't have a choice, the bear wouldn't take it as an excuse. You didn't win. It's over. Your promising life is over. Everyone is staring at you in anger and disappointment. Its time for your *execution.* You're gonna get killed. Brutally executed in who knows what way!? Its over for you, Leon! *Then, somethings wraps around your neck and pulls you against a poll, with some baseball thrower IN front of you, it starts hitting you with the baseballs faster, and faster, and faster, AND FASTER! ITS HITTING YOU EVERYWHERE! YOU CANT SEE, YOUR GETTING HIT LEFT AND RIGHT! NO PART OF YOUR BODY IS GETTING SPARED! BRUISES EVERYWHERE, BLOOD GUSHING OUT! WHEN WILL IT END!?* It ends. Everyone stares at your lifeless body in shock. You never got to see the light of day ever again. Rest in peace to you, Leon Kuwata, Ultimate Baseball Star. Or should I say former Ultimate Baseball Star? Since, y'know. He's dead.
@@_Belphegore_Sorry. I kinda changed my opinion after few months. I should've said that he's still okay as a character to me, but as a person he could've been developed a bit better than a boy who goes far for various pretty girls. I was just upset to see it from him back then, but now i don't think it's something i can judge. It's just a part of his character that i subjectively don't like, but i definitely don't hate it. I hope that old comment didn't upset you that much :")

@@emsub1199 The only thing she's known for is that she tried to kill Leon and frame Makoto.
It hurts my heart to know he died by baseballs when he hated baseball 😔.. He is beautiful and one of my favorites, I wish he didn't die 😭
I dont think he hated the game, I just think he hated practice.
I could be wrong though.
@Leon Kuwata hi Leon,why the actual hell did you want to sing anyways? You don't have the voice for it!
Mikan is another good example
@Leon Kuwata hi Leon! *hugs him tightly*
@Leon Kuwata 🤨📷
I don't hate Hiro....but almost anyone would've been better survivor material. Including Leon.
Nah, we need Hiro to act as a foil for the smarter, serious characters like Kyoko and Byakuya.
Yashiro dose get a ending where he was dead, but he survived because he could still have some development in udg
It's just unfair that the reason he's alive is for comedic relief. Like yeah, he's fun to be around (I genuinely think so), but there's just no depth in his character. He's not that smart and he doesn't contribute much. I don't hate him but he's one of those characters I like, but when they die I just go "oh he passed away? aww :(" then move on.
Like...Mondo can get his gang together and fight despair, or Taka can soon lead the country to a good hopeful path, or Leon could use his fame to influence people then soon pursue music to help recover the world, and LOTS of other better characters that weedman survivor...
@@hugnboba I couldn’t agree more. There were so many ways they could’ve taken the storyline. They created so many well-written characters only to turn around and immediately kill them off. Personally, I think that Mondo, Sakura, Leon, Chihiro and Taka should’ve survived. They deserved to be further developed more than Hiro, Hina, and Toko imo (Toko had a lot of potential too but I think they milked the whole “Genocide Jack” thing).
Leon or Kiyotaka would've been a better choice
Leon has an ahoge. That’s why he keeps his hair up and spiky. And no one can tell me otherwise.
He's a baby unu
Spoilers:
2:43
What kind of sick, twisted irony is this?! The only thing that makes it more twisted is the next line.
...
11037
imagine this: sayaka, leon, ibuki and kaede make a band
*SPOILERS*
also, in the anime 11037’s trial, leon literally had a mental breakdown, which i think we all would if we were voted guilty. he actually seems like his personality is interesting and he does portray human emotions very well from when we see him.
leon gon thirst over sayaka then the music
Leon: *is a base character*
Creators: die lol
That's te thing I hate abt his character; the creators just want him dead. With this reason, you can replace Leon w anyone and it still would make sense. If only Leon wasn't base...
@@hugnboba fr fr
I see hate to sayaka in leon's videos and hate to leon in sayaka’s I love both sayaka and leon-
same lmao
Same. Neither of them deserve the hate they get.
Samee
Same same. Both fans of these characters defending their actions are being hyprocrites.
omgggg I played almost all his free time events but I missed one! He is my favorite character in the second game, I love him so much!!! The "ngh,,, get me out of here.... please" SHATTERED MY HEART HGFJFJ
He's your favorite character...in the second game?
Is it bad that I am crushing so hard on Leon??? Like, he died so early... I wish he could've lived for much longer so I can hang out with him some more...
😭😭😭 we all wish that :(
Leon: give me back my youth give me back my dreams i need hope
asriel dreemurr: instantly starts playing hopes and dreams
Me being a fan of both Leon and Sayaka means I'm constantly conflicted because they both had reasonable reasons to do what they did, and I miss them both :(
The reason Leon quite literally got dragged by that metal thingy to his execution:
Monokuma knew Leon hated baseball so he dragged him to the batting cage
Monokuma knew that making Leon get by killed my baseballs would be the absolute worst way to go.
Poor Leon he deserved better. I miss him so fricking much :’(
gosh it's so unfair for him.. think about it lol
he wanted to be a musician but failed since he died :(
he was forced to shave hair
he was the unlucky one who got locked in this hell
and
why is he so underrated-
he my fav character omg
You know what’s even worse? When Sayaka invited him to her room he probably thought he could get some advice from an actual musician :(
My brother who likes danganronpa said “leons boring” , it broke MY SOUL. Literally im the ultimate simp for leon.
Ahh he wanted love but his crush TRIED TO KILL HIM i feel bad for Leon NOT FOR SAYAKA
Sayaka was probably going to get makoto killed
@@heatherlafferty2645 ikr she need review he plan a bit like why would you go after a athlete
Luxshana Jeyakumar i think sayaka’s plan to kill leon was like this
Sayaka noticed that Leon had a crush on her and used that to her advantage by telling him to meet her alone at like 1:00 am, and Leon took the bait
Also i think it would have been better for both of them if Leon thought about his decision first. He didnt HAVE to kill Sayaka, he could have left her there, went back to his room, and told somebody in the morning (maybe Makoto)
(Actually yes, tell Makoto, even if he didnt know the rooms were switched)
I blame Sayaka more than Leon, but really all this is 100% Junko’s fault tbh
I bet Sayaka learned her lesson as soon as she fled to the bathroom
@@k3m0n0_v4mpii Yeah, but if he were to leave the room he could have possibly been killed. I think that Leon was like who would want to kill because that is wrong, so he probably thought like maybe they want to talk instead of being attacked. So I think Leon thought nothing would happen.
@@k3m0n0_v4mpii Actually Leon didn't kill Sayaka. Leon s case is not developed good in the game, in the manga (which is official and cannon) is shown whats actually happened. Basically Sayaka invite Leon in her room (Makoto s room)and attacked him,but he dogged and didn't get seriously hurt he didn't try to attack her, he had a little fear for his own life and actually tryed to calm Sayaka Maizono down.He tryed to grab the knife out of her hands so she can stop attacking. In the end Maizono, in all her fucked up wisdom, throws herself at Kuwata, essentially stabbing *herself* with the knife. Only.. it’s in Leon’s hand, and therefore, he is considered the culprit.
Sayaka decided if she can't kill Leon then she would frame him for her suicide.And it actually works out since there are no cameras in the toilet and monokuma cant say for sure what actually happened so he executes leon anyway to kickstart the mutual killing game.
#Leondidnothingwrong
A Leon Kuwata body pillow, a Leon Kuwata carpet, Leon Kuwata bed sheets.. I can’t let my parents see my obsession with this man.
WHERE CAN I GET THOSE!?
I WANT A BODY PILLOW OF HIM 🥰
WAHT
okay but like leon had a crush on sayaka and she used it to her advantage and now i'm sad. he had such a cool design and personality ugh
I forgot leosaya was canon in the manga
"Alright! We gotta sit down and plan out our strategy!"
Where though? You're in the bathroom.
12:56 You have 2 personality traits and one of them is hating baseball, how could I possible forget
Leon: Let’s play baseball!
Me: *W H A T .*
Honestly, I think what you learn from Leon here is that he actually does like baseball. Wanting to be a musician is just some frivolous dream he has because of a cute girl, but now that he's trapped here and not able to play baseball for the longest time yet, he's actually upset and misses it
"Give me back my dreams" AAAAAH BABY BOIII😭😭💕
10:28 Thank god Bijuu mike didn't see this, or shit would be going off.
O CRAP
*he would of snapped if you know what I mean*
HAHA YEAH
I died a little inside when he kept mentioning how much he hates Leon...
@@horseconfused Same, leave the baby boi alone
These keep making me love the characters even more oh my god-
Leon is Husbando!!!
YES.
YES 😭
0:01 why does he make that face though 😂
“IM GOING TO KILL YOU” Face....yet: “Yo, the names Leon Kuwata!

SOMEONE HELP ALL I HEAR IS SHUICHI
it's because the same voice actor for shuichi

I love leon but he def had some screws loose 😅 I think he's still my favorite tho.....I really miss him 😭
6:53 Ah yes. Hanging out in the bathroom. Just a usual thing for two ol' chums.
Great work!
But were's my comment? I think, they have deleted my spoiler, haven't they?
Ryoma Hoshi no i didnt delete it... it kinda disappeared i think its a youtube problem 😅

I’d definitely like to see him pursue his music dream
also i cannot unhear Shuichi no matter how hard
It's the opposite with me, I cant stop hearing Leon
Wow. Poor Nekomaru... Wait, poor Leon. Nekomaru was a total byotch on him.
Nekomaru?
@@ringyz Its hinted that he was his trainer. And his trainer was a pain in the ass to Leon, yet the Ultimate Idol Killer apparently disrespected him.
@@goldhm1394 wait, but his coach has been confirmed, tho right? To not be Nekomaru?
@@ebicbarton Its not 100%, yet is really heavily implied to be in DR2 with his introduction
@@goldhm1394 but what about Kanon in DR:AE?
2:10 *Getting Shuichi's caged child singing flashbacks*
So it could've worked for him to become a singer
Now I'm even sadder he never got to make his dream true
I think the reason he wanted to play baseball again wasnt necessarily because he enjoyed it, but because its something familiar. He trapped in this scary unknown situation, so all he wants is something familiar and comforting, even if it is something he doesnt like
god i cant watch through them all, it hurts my head so much, he's pretty much a cookie cutter copy of the guy who gave me trust issues on a silver platter
if i are in this game
Davi:calm down,calm down i are not this type of person the who kills inocent people
12:09 “Seeing Leon so pleased with something I gave him makes me happy!”
The sprite: *Looks like he's gonna beat you up*
6:29 - 6:47 this part makes me feel so bad for him☹️
Idc what anyone says, Leon didn’t deserve to get executed 😭💔. He could’ve been such an interesting character if he would’ve lived a little longer or at least had more screen time 😔. I hope this doesn’t offend anyone who likes Maizono, but attempting to kill Leon is one of the main reasons why I don’t favor her.
Edit: Okay so looking back at it I honestly can't blame Sayaka for what she did. Although to most people it seems very insensitive, she had a good reason for doing so. I mean come on, she was a scared teenager trying to get out of a LITERAL killing game, and people still call her a "snake" or that she's fake cause she was going to pin the murder of makoto 💀 (despite Celestia doing way worse by manipulating Hifumi & no one seems to give her any flack for it 🤔, but I'm not even gonna get into that) . Even though she is still not one of my favorites, I must admit I do hate what happened to her and Leon in the end. Both were being pretty rational (at least for such a drastic situation) imo
You mean you don't favor her because he tried to kill Leon specifically, or because she tried to kill someone at all?
Zero the Faceless ah, I meant I don’t favor her b/c she tried to kill Leon and was gonna frame Makoto for it. Looking more into it though, Sayaka apparently didn’t know if she threw the trial off by making everyone vote for Makoto that they’d all be executed except for her. So with her not knowing this she just thought after she “graduated” she’d call for help for the rest of em. Even though I don’t like her that much, I gotta admit it’s kinda sad how she went out
@@marinarasauce9853 I mean, if Leon killed Sayaka because he was scared, and the "if you vote incorrectly, everyone dies except the culprit" rule didn't change his mind about blaming Makoto, then I HIGHLY doubt it would be different for Sayaka. She planned to kill Leon and blame Makoto, so I highly doubt that she would back down once they get told that rule. I don't blame any of them though, being forced into a killing game would be pretty horrifying.
Sorry if I came out as rude or nonsensical, I am really bad at explaining things whoops,,
@@knightmare.4 Ah no you're fine! You didn't come off that way at all 👍. And I definitely understand what your saying now. I made that comment back when I wasn't even all the way finished with the first game, so I didn't really get the whole everyone except the culprit dies situation yet.
Celeste already presented as a bitch in the first place, so it's not a surprise she'd betray and kill someone for her own gain. I think she doesn't get any flak because it's expected of Celeste to do what she did. I mean she is the Ultimate Gambler. Lying and manipulating is her thing.
Meanwhile, Sayaka, who is introduced as a sweet girl, ends up having a twist where she tried to kill Leon and plans to frame Makoto for it, so she had more hate in the fandom than Celeste is because of this. I mean who wants a person who you thought is nice but turns out they're not after all?
wait... LEO-
He had potential. Don't know if they did anything with him in other games as I have only played this one, but he didn't really get to do much.
I originally watched the anime, so when me and my friend were playing through it together, and he kept commenting on how much he liked Leon, I was just like "oh you poor fool,,, you poor poor fool"
I love the Leon support here, I never see this in the fandom!
I think he would have been an intresting character, only for the fact that he was the first design he was executed first, c'mon man😞
He could have been such a bro if he wasn't killed off so early...
"Hehehe! You're gonna be there rooting for me, right?"
*clenches fist* goddamnit...
i'm a fast reader and it really annoys me that i can't click the screen to make it go faster ;-;
5:38..
10:08 OMG WHAT THE HELL XD
LEON XDDDDD I'M A GALLLL XDDDD
I’ve got everything he needs.... the only thing left that we need here is for him to be *Real*
Boi if Leon talked to me and said I looked nice I would frickn faint
I wish Leon survived over Byakuya _
HE DESERVED BETTER, I HATE THE CREATORS 😭😭
I decided looks like a costume party on november
Hi rantaro
WE STAN HIS MUSIC TATSE
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH EOUHFUIEV
Me and my girlfriend started watching Game Grump's playthrough of DR (which is actually how I got into DR in the first place), and we've caught up to where they are in the game right now, which is on the final chapter I think? Anyways, when we started watching, the two characters that I immediately became attached to were Leon and Taka. I was so damn upset when Leon turned out to be Sayaka's killer!! I mean, I kinda knew since her body was found, what with his name written on the wall and all, but part of me was hoping they'd pull a fuckin Ace Attorney on us and he was actually framed or something. My gf had watched the anime before, so she understood the story and kinda knew what to expect, and after Leon's execution, she was telling me how when she saw me getting all attached to Leon, she was like "oh shit, she's gonna be so fucking upset" and she was damn right 😭😭😭 So then once Leon died, I became overly attached to Taka, and that was fuckin devastating for me, too 😭😭😭😭 Just can't seem to learn my lesson, can I? They make these characters too god damn likable!!!!!!
damn makotos right hes so proud and stuff but its impossible for me to hate him. ily leon :,)
To be honest, his reaction to his execution shook me the most because of how realistic it is... just imagine you are a talented high schooler whos been trapped in a school with other talented students to play a killing game. You can't trust anyone. Then one night, the hot singer girl invites you to her dorm. Being the horny teenager you are, you accept the invitation and go to the dorm. But OH GREAT YOU SCREWED UP BIG TIME BUDDY! She tried to attack you with a knife! What do you do? You quickly grab a sword in the room and block it, breaking her wrist and disarming her. She ran into the bathroom! Hmmm... the door is broken. Let's go get our tool kit and come back to destroy the door, and possibly win the killing game! We're back, now let's get the knife she dropped and KILL HER!
*stab sound*
There, you've done it. Some of your red hair is on the ground, which would make everyone know its you... cleaning time! Now, let's get rid of this bloody shirt. Off to the trash room we go! We got it in there. Hm... the incinerator is blocked by a gate... aha! You're great at throwing, use this crystal ball to activate it. Haha, all the evidence is gone. Nobody will ever know its you!
Its the end of the class trial... there's evidence pointing towards you... Sayaka wrote "11037" in her own blood in the bathroom you killed her at. 11037... LEON. Also, the method of turning on the incinerator was barely possibly by any ordinary person! Except for... the ultimate baseball star! Also, one of your sleeves didn't burn and fell to the floor! You didn't wanna show anyone your tool kit because it is the only one showing signs of being you! OH MY DAYS, ITS OVER! ITS ALL OVER YOU'VE BEEN CAUGHT! You tried to plea it was self defense and that you didn't have a choice, the bear wouldn't take it as an excuse. You didn't win. It's over. Your promising life is over. Everyone is staring at you in anger and disappointment. Its time for your *execution.* You're gonna get killed. Brutally executed in who knows what way!? Its over for you, Leon!
*Then, somethings wraps around your neck and pulls you against a poll, with some baseball thrower IN front of you, it starts hitting you with the baseballs faster, and faster, and faster, AND FASTER! ITS HITTING YOU EVERYWHERE! YOU CANT SEE, YOUR GETTING HIT LEFT AND RIGHT! NO PART OF YOUR BODY IS GETTING SPARED! BRUISES EVERYWHERE, BLOOD GUSHING OUT! WHEN WILL IT END!?* It ends. Everyone stares at your lifeless body in shock. You never got to see the light of day ever again. Rest in peace to you, Leon Kuwata, Ultimate Baseball Star. Or should I say former Ultimate Baseball Star? Since, y'know. He's dead.
HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO COME BACK, OOF DOES HE KNOW-
WAIT WHAT IS HE ACTUALLY COMING BACK?! IM ABOUT TO “effing” CRY.... WHAT? IS IT IN DANGANRONPA V3 OR SOMETHIN? I HAVENT FINISHED IT YET SO............
@@horseconfused oop, sorry I mean it like the fact that he was going to die first, no, he won't come back sadly😿🤚

@@_Belphegore_Sorry. I kinda changed my opinion after few months. I should've said that he's still okay as a character to me, but as a person he could've been developed a bit better than a boy who goes far for various pretty girls.

I hope that old comment didn't upset you that much :")
There`s nothing Channel
No no i was joking, i only said that because leon is in my top 5 favorite characters from the first game, i joke a lot in the comments don't take me seriously- I mean i have Kokichi as my pfp, taking me seriously should be really difficult:)

Leon: Ghh... I never shoulda come to this school
Me: you shouldn't have Leon you shouldn't have...
I’m so extremely confused how do you get his last free time event? Do you just go back or?
Basically when you finish the game
14:30 Hits different after finishing the game
Leon is so cringe- I love him🤰
@Leon Kuwata yes😦😏😘
When Leon is up to bat, he pictures the ball as screen time. That's how he maintains a perfect batting average.
He could’ve been a good person had he walked away
The whole thing wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for the motive video.
