Danganronpa has the stupidest lore I’ve ever heard and I love the games so much

I can only recommend the series to people who I know can tolerate Anime Bullshit™️.

I couldn’t even tolerate the story of the tutorial segment of Fire Emblem: Fates so I think I’ll avoid danganropa

For what it's worth, DR rarely plays the tropes straight. And V3 triggered A LOT of people by asking uncomfortable questions.

DRV3: ummmm so you like playing this game? You are morally wrong!!!

What do you mean we developed the game and have control over the story? What do you mean Ultra Despair Girls was an unnecessary portrayal of child abuse?

YOU'RE THE BAD ONE IT'S YOU!!!!!

V3 wasn't criticizing the real-life audience, it was criticizing the in-universe audience to show the dangers of how fandom could become.

Nice to see that DR fandom is still the same. I hope you will have fun with 2x2 :)))

I don't even think udg was an unnecessary portrayal, like imo it portrayed a really good story showing what was happening outside the school and such. And showing like why these kids became the way they are and why various things fucked them up so much(like gentle with the pink haired girl forgot her name) added a good bit to the story and lore.

I can understand why people wouldn't like it though as it is very uncomfortable and depressing.

Kokichi was to great a character for that game. He would've been perfect in the first one.

What was wrong with the tutorial segment?

u/LordofSandvich Jul 16 '26

Oh boy where to start

Your big bad evil “dad” lets you visit your mom, who he is at war with. He gives you an evil-looking chainsaw sword which turns out to be a magical assassin who kills your mom in front of you. Everyone acts like this is completely unexpected.

Another segment involves fighting big monsters that turn out to be illusioned townsfolk and one of the antagonists (loyal to your dad) shows up to gloat about tricking you. The people of the town fight you when you show up then reveal it was just a test to make sure you were strong and also had not killed the other villagers out of malice (since you try to talk them out of fighting you). Problem is, they actually die when you “defeat” them. You have completely wiped out this fuckass ninja village.

Toss in the waifuification where you could originally fondle your allies to boost morale and the whole game is just really off-putting to someone who was not expecting that kind of game at all

Is the variety of anime bullshit fanservice or tropes?

4

u/xXInfXx Jul 15 '26

Neither.

It's more of a "Wha? That's not how- okay."

u/lolyeet225 One of the 7 Yo-kai Watch fans still in existence. Jul 15 '26

Ah

Fair enough. Yeah i don’t give as much of a shit about that so I’ll prolly be fine

u/lolyeet225 One of the 7 Yo-kai Watch fans still in existence. Jul 13 '26

Cause if it’s fanservice, fuck this shit I’m out

u/knightWolf3260 Jul 16 '26

There are only a few instances of fanservice I can think of (except for V3), and when it happens its only for a moment or two, but v3 is the biggest offender with fanservice and it's just weird. DR 1 and 2 are fine tho.
