Dangaronpa V3 is kinda meh to me so this is my au in which Rantaro and Kaede are the main protagonist and antagonist duo.
I also think the 3rd trial is a big waste of potential. They had such a cool idea in mind with the whole "Korekiyo confessed to one murder but not the other" but then in the end it's revealed he actually commited both and it's like.... ok??? You're telling me we could've had a trial with 2 murderers who didnt know about eachother's exsistance and that no matter what there would be a killed left among the survivors??? Anyways in this au I like to pitch the idea of Himiko secretly being the second killer who accidentally murdered Angie and although Korkiyo did kill Tenko his crime doesn't count as Himiko killed Angie before him.
There could've been fun loopholes I'm just saying 🙄🙄🙄
Also I think the dynamic between Rantaro and Kaede could've been fun to explore in a "Kaede wants to trust and believe her friends while Rantaro is aware they could betray them at any moment" kind of situation
no explanation for this one. just wanted to do this idea.
the piece of shit that fucks up every trial! the one character that for some reason can't seem to register that this is a life or death situation. or maybe they do and this is a trauma response. but somehow they're really good at solving the case. either way they see this game as a... well a game and they tend to annoy everyone with their attitude. yet, you can't help loving them (unless you're kokichi, then fuck you). e.g. byakuya togami, nagito komaeda, kokichi ouma
the asshole that's not really an asshole! the one character that's so rude that you can't help but wonder if they will become the blackened due to how hot-headedness they are or if they will become the victim because of how hot-headedness. one things for sure, they're super intimidating and hard to get close to... at least at first. but the more you spent time trying to pry open their hard shell that is covery in poisonous thorns, the more they will show their true nature. maybe this will be the start of a beautiful friendship. e.g. mondo oowada, fuyuhiko kuzuryu, ryoma hoshi
the one that dies first! the one character that you didn't really know well. you might've held a conversation with them once or twice, but at most you guys are just acquaintances. so imagine your shock when you find out that they died first after the promise you made with your group that you wouldn't be participating in this killing game. their death became the catalyst of all the horror you'd experience during your time at hope's peak. but maybe later, their death won't be completely meaningless. e.g. junko enoshima, byakuya twogami, rantaro amami
the shy one who probably needs more than just therapy! the one character that is always so shy and reserved you can't help, but want to befriend them... until you find out who they really are. then you are stuck wondering what the fuck happened to them that made them this way. there is no way that just therapy will fix this. e.g. chihiro fujisaki, mikan tsumiki, tsumugi shirogane
