However, I did feel like I was reading a well-drafted essay, because I noticed a sequential tone structure, with a very strong tonal shift. I mean, my god, I understand this is about despair, it's in the freaking title! The show just crammed that down my throat until I felt that was the only word I knew anymore. The constant 'yadda yadda Despair blah Despair-filled bluh bluh Despair' dialogue was WAY overused, and it's very evident near the end. There is one more complaint I have of this series. Okay, stop interrupting me, I'm trying to write a review. True, Naegi, but that bullet thing you did was always really cool. "You've got that wrong! Those trials were always difficult and were almost always put on my shoulders!" The folowing debate would be very interesting, and was extremely interesting to see how each student used evidence to support themselves and to attack others. Sure, some of them were rushed, but quite honestly, who cares?! It was so exciting when I saw the elevator descending to the Classroom Trials room. The prime example of this was the Classroom Trials, which was the highlight of the series for me. For example: Mystery! The mystery in this series is absolutely top-notch and very invigorating (and this is coming from a HUGE Higurashi no Naku Koro ni fan), and almost always kept me anxious and nervous until they were solved. Thank you for the information and for creeping me out, Yasuhiro. "But remember, there's always some other great things that we have as well. Long story short, this anime would've been awesome if it was a few episodes longer to include all the information. However, I do understand that this was a seasonal anime, a Summer seasonal to be exact, so there really wasn't a way to break out of 12-13 episodes. That was a big downer for me as well, because to me, the series could've been almost nearly perfect if it didn't just drop information. The series did tend to be quite episodic at times and left important information out as well. Alright, this is the one thing that got on my nerves. So I think it's safe to say that you'll enjoy the characters.Ĭonsistency: 7/10. Hell, I might just start a new list for Most Hated Characters just because of Monokuna. Not a single character in the show can be labeled, by me, a bad character. But nonetheless, the characters (obviously) really made the show for me. So the characters are extremely unique (and contrast each other perfectly), I mean, a Super Duper High School Level Wrestler that looks like a body-building man but is really a girl?! My brain was surprised and I'd imagine it started seeping out of my nose. "The people around me and the events that occur are very peculiar, but interesting!"Ĭharacter: 10/10. A despair-filled high school where you have to butcher your classmates to "graduate?" Not going to lie, I thought this probably wasn't going to be the greatest of shows. The setting of Danganronpa has to be one of the strangest. This is also a very naive review, as I've never played the game, nor have heard of its popularity, so expectations were average. I've just seen many overly-negative reviews and wanted to have an alternate opinion available for anyone who needs one. Tension fills the air as Naegi and his classmates realize that they are faced with two choices: participate in Monokuma's killing game, or reside together in the school for the rest of their lives.įirst off, if you detest/abhor/dislike this anime, read no further. The mysterious toy explains that the freshmen are trapped inside the school with only one means of escape-kill a classmate without being discovered. While everyone is trying to figure out what happened, they are confronted by the school principal-Monokuma, a robotic teddy bear. Failing to comprehend how he got there, Naegi begins to explore, and to his surprise, finds his classmates assembled in the gym. However, after losing consciousness inside, Naegi wakes up in a seemingly abandoned classroom. Determined, he enters the front doors of the prestigious academy. Despite believing his admission was just a fluke, Naegi is delighted to attend an institution known for ensuring success to those who graduate. Makoto Naegi, a teenager with no remarkable talent, is surprised to learn that he has been accepted into Hope's Peak Private Academy: an elite school that gathers the best students from various fields.
