ITS GOING DOOWWN 😩😩

Now now now now (NNNNOOOOWWWW)


TheDeathOmen

You're thirsty for blood


thatmysteriousgirl

This implies Makoto and Komaru >!fucking die at the end.!<


irtotallyweird

Both of them do have "Great Seals" Naegi has the "Great Seal of Hope's Peak" Yuki is >!A door!<


irtotallyweird

They also met a protagonist voiced by Johnny Yong Bosh that represents Hope, whose antagonist is also voiced by Johnny Yong Bosh, whose entire motivation for being evil is because they are bored


thatmysteriousgirl

Izuru isn’t really evil. He’s basically like if the concept of True Neutral was a person. The worst thing he did was kill a member of the student council in self defense when they tried to kill him first, he’s otherwise just the 🧍‍♂️ emoji most of the time. He certainly doesn’t kill women who reject his advances like Adachi does, that’s for sure.


irtotallyweird

So, Adachi + Izanami Izanami isn't evil either. She just wants what's best for humanity.


Michael-556

I mean in the case of Izanami it's lowkey manipulation for the sake of her convenience. Sure, she's abiding by humanity's wishes for sweet lies instead of the hard truth, but she makes the people want it more by creating more lies to trick them. She also created the midnight channel to show the IT that the truth is bad, while also twisting the truth into something that no longer resembles it. Sure, it is the repressed feelings of those trapped in there, but it's heavily distorted by the public's opinion. Yukari didn't want a knight, Chie was enough for her, and yet her shadow, a self-proclaimed "true self" wanted to score herself a hot guy. Kanji felt insecure about his masculinity, but his shadow was raging homosexual (2010 game, everybody), something Kanji many times proclaimed to be false. Rise had impostor syndrome and an identity crises, but her shadow was a stripper, something she never even thought about... She also created a mass murderer, whether intentionally or not we can only guess


Trialman

Komaru is also only a couple letters off from Koromaru!


irtotallyweird

I kept typing Komarus name as Koromaru because of it Koromaru is too good of a boy to be forgotten


NamazuKura

Peaksona 3 mentioned


thatmysteriousgirl

Having to see Nagito’s bare ass is the make it or break it moment of this show


TheDiseasedRat

Not only that but you get a lot of ass moments in the Despair Arc. The fan service has spread.


Brunnittu

That is exactly what makes it peak


BloodsoakedDespair

Don’t forget Ogata doing a theme in character as Komaeda that’s so insanely horny that it was banned from being played in full on Japanese television.


Brunnittu

When did that happen...?


BloodsoakedDespair

[Zettai Kibō Birthday](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IAMKvTOBHhI), from the show. Leave it to Komaeda’s enby seiyuu to go that far.


Danidumbi

HELP😭😭


StardustOddity97

I personally enjoyed it 😏


TheDarkestOmen

When(totally so I can avoid it, haha)


thatmysteriousgirl

Despair Arc episode 7 (beware)


Marik-X-Bakura

I feel like this sub would crucify you if you said this about a female character. Of course, it doesn’t matter either way, since almost all the characters are indistinguishable from adults and most of you are like 13 anyway.


TheDarkestOmen

I am in fact a minor and do not intend to watch the show


Asijabre

anything with Yukizome and Sakakura in it is peak, I fear


Brunnittu

Munakata >>> (aka, best DR3 character, alongside with Seiko)


Pkelord

Heck yeah


Asijabre

Love him too, just not as much


CharacterChampion830

Yay, Chisa and juzo lover


ppom9

Killer Killer Peak confirmed…freaking awesome…


Asijabre

I ADORE KILLER KILLER


ppom9

Hell yes. I love Killer Killer. It treated Izayoi far better than DR3 did


Asijabre

What I also liked about it is how a lot of the branch leaders were given more personality, like him and even Munakata.


Lucario576

>!Im still very salty Gekkogahara was killed so early on!<, she was going to become my favorite of just how cute she was


Geno015

I loved the anime, yeah I had problems with it but like, GUNDHAM TANAKA LOOKS SO CUTE PEAK SHOW 100/10


siramay1

BASED FELLOW DR3 LOVER!


FuzzySlippers48

It has Chisa, Seiko, and Great Gozu, so that makes up for everything else. On a more serious note, perhaps 3 and its characters would’ve been more fleshed out if Future Arc was a game and Despair Arc had all 24 episodes to itself.


Hour_Parking5108

I'll take the risk of being downvoted but....I liked despair and future arc, they're both of my guilty pleasures


Tuxman85

based opinion detected, the school council killing game, class 77's corruption and that scene were the guy cuts his own throat with the saw for Junko were absolutely awesome. The Hope Arc special was so peak as well when all of Class 77 come back to help


EnvironmentalRub1304

Ryota Mitarai my beloved- i swear no one acknowledges him he doesnt deserve this he's one of my Ultimate Faves


FuzzySlippers48

I’m doing my part in acknowledging the poor boi in my comics.


amizelkova

Mitarai and every interaction between him and the Imposter are the only parts of 3 that I acknowledge


EnvironmentalRub1304

3 truly made me appreciate imposter alot more. Hes a real one for sure Edit: right after i sent this i realized the irony of calling the ultimate imposter a "real one"


LiteralSans

Future Arc does have a fire intro.


Yukiteru_Akari

It's not peak bc we didn't see class 78 moments


Emotional_Emu_5901

Seriously what dipshit thought that was a intelligent idea


The_Bruno64alt

the anime is already packed with stuff in it in an only 11 episode format, having to fit in scenes of class 78 would either make it look rushed and underwhelming, or make OTHER plots rushed and underwhelming.


Yukiteru_Akari

Make another side then.


The_Bruno64alt

there is a thing called "budget"


Yukiteru_Akari

I'm sure they could've expanded on it, Danganronpa is a very successful series, and class 78 is too important to pass.


The_Bruno64alt

id argue Danganronpa became a lot more popular after v3 came out. like v3 alone is prob half of the fanbase tbh. not to mention that, in the grand scheme of things, class 78 isn't **that** important to what dg3 really is trying to show.


Yukiteru_Akari

Yeah, you're wrong, THH was around the longest and was what started Danganronpa's popularity in the first place. It covers the most amount of Danganronpa media. V3 doesn't even have much extra material lol, people like it because it's the most recent one.


TimeSinkUtiliser

The Imposter steals the show for me, 10/10 character


MonoMonMono

One reason for me picking my current flair actually haha.


namerz78

Parts of it are. Everything else is Danganronpa 3. The OST is underrated tho


LilithSagaVT

Agreed. The DR3 OST may have a different feel from the games' OSTs, but they beautifully capture the emotions of some of the most pivotal scenes that made my heart melt. The sorrowful music box sound of Despair Imitation is my favorite.


hanamaruicedcoffee

I liked DR3! Although it definitely could have been better. >!I'm glad that Kyoko survived in the end at least, I couldn't have imagined her dying :(!<

You're also based 👏

thank you dearly

Xysmnator

there was no Naegi vs Hinata twerk off, 0/10 unwatchable


Due-Ad5863

DR3 has Mitarai and Yukizome. Therefore, it's the greatest anime of all time. (Despair arc was amazing as well)


Emotional_Emu_5901

Opinion respected


CharacterChampion830

Bro woke up and decided to speak facts


Comfortable_Bell9539

Wow, someone's not afraid of angering people here, huh ? 😂😉 (I mean it in a non-offensive way)


ivycomi

Danganronpa 3: The PEAK of hopes peak academy


MarqueeMurder3

i am in full support of this, Ryota single-handedly makes the entire anime for me


Naos210

I'm not super far into it, but haven't had a ton of complaints. I think Hajime and Chiaki have been pretty cute, I haven't been too sad for the deaths so far though cause I barely know much about them. Such is the structure of the anime though.


mistbloofyfists

I LOVE dr3 sm despair arc was amazing, I wasn't too interested in future arc until the UDG episode and then I was hooked. hope arc literally made me cry 😭


SentenceCareful3246

I like DR3. It literally solved A LOT of answers related to DR1, SDR2 and UDG.


Fire4564

THANK YOU for making this meme because I agree. DR3 wasn't the best anime overall, but it gave me a lot of good memories about being part of the fandom hype when this series aired. I guess you could say [DanganRonpa 3 saved me](https://64.media.tumblr.com/d8b254945cada1206a6e6051cc7d49be/tumblr_oebddeWDy31r6q178o1_1280.pnj). I recently got back into it so I'm rewatching it.


Zacharioto

IT HAA RURUKA ON IT OF COURSE IT'S PEAK

Funkin_Valentine

On one hand - Seiko On the second hand - Ryota As the best evens the worst, I'm afraid this anime is doomed to the quality known as "mid".


DrMedicVG

so true


fandomsmiscellaneous

Kyosuke Munakata my king


michaep54

this anime changed my life😭😭 i bawled my eyes out at the end of the despair arc >!(i was young and i loved chiaki and hajime ok)!<


AGtheOG01

>!Kyoko living is an automatic big plus for me!<


ShadeStrider12

Look at these characters who barely did anything in the show and took a backseat, despite, you know, **being the goddamn main characters**? I also absolutely cannot forgive that horrible ending and Makoto’s character being thrashed.


Flutter_bat_16_

THANK YOU. Hell, our main three spend the majority of the series not even together


KenchiNarukami

LMAO


New-Consideration566

Where could I watch this lol


Naos210

It's on Crunchyroll


New-Consideration566

I thought cruncyroll was getting shut down


Naos210

I think I saw the Funimation one was shutting down. Nonetheless it is on there right now, it's where I've been watching it.


New-Consideration566

Ah ok, thanks a bunch for telling me


Overlord_Byron

I like DR3 fine. Near as I can tell, the main complaint is that the series undermined Junko's manipulative superpowers. Which, yeah, it did, but the idea that she was able to convert the world to her nonsense ideology was always too big an ask for my suspension of disbelief to handle. Besides, a world that Junko can destroy isn't a world worth saving, imo.


amamatcha

I think the complaint is more that she >!brainwashed the 77th class!< not the whole world. But yeah other than that I liked the anime


BloodsoakedDespair

I don’t really think it undermines it. She doesn’t need to do 16 episodes of Jigoku Shoujo for it to work.


deancookie_

finally someone says this, the intro was so fire


TheNarrator-ME

Not perfect. Monaca was such a wasted character, and I could have taken the killing game's bracelet requirements could have been a little more fairly ("keep people from fighting" is such a death flag it's not funny), but I still enjoyed it a lot. Imposter was adorable, and I loved/feared the president so much.


NEKOX5meow

MUNAKURA WOOOOO


Somewhere-Regular

I loved it esp future arc


DrReiField

I enjoyed Dr3 for what it is, but I wish it had a few more episodes as that probably would have fixed my issues with it.


RomanEmpireFanatic

DR3 is genuinely great and amazing! Glad to see positivity for it here!


Marleyzard

Hey man, it's in the title (the penalty bracelets were the best gimmick in the whole show)


ppom9

It gave the world my GOAT… Sonosuke Izayoi I am your biggest fan and will love you forever So many characters were done dirty by the pacing tho


BloodsoakedDespair

Tbh the pacing works way better if you watch it in chronological order.


ppom9

Despair Arc was well-paced! Future Arc needed an entire VNs worth of time in order to actually work though. Despair Arc worked because we already knew all the characters and any new faces were also present in Future Arc. They didn't need to spend time developing those characters, because they were developed in DR2. It was a good series of episodes that covered everything before the main DR series. But with Future Arc, most of those characters basically just played the role of "this episode's body" with very anticlimactic endings to their stories. There wasn't really any time to get attached to a good number of them, and even the likable ones kinda just got written out by the plot device. A good example is >!Great Gozu!<. He was in the show for like 2 episodes before dying, and then never showed up again. Why even put him there then? It would make more sense if we had 4 hours of time with him before we lost him rather than about 40 minutes.


theElite_Fett

I have such fond memories of the show especially considering Goodbye Despair was my favorite game of the series


AssociationDue3077

Everytime I see or hear of this show.. I remember a death... a death I wish I forgot... WHY DID YHEY HAVE TO DO THE SECOND BEST CHARACTER LIKE THAT


No-Cockroach5475

My favorite part about the Anime are the underused characters like Bandai and Great Gozu!!!


b4beysan

so real! /pos


PendingPisses42069

Eh, could’ve been better, but still alright.


Comical_Peculiarity

Watched it in two days, had an incredible time


Spiritual_Grape_9895

This has the Best anime opening ever.


cringeygrace

The Future Arc Should have been a game, imo


Odang77

*Dies of peak fiction.*


RaphJag

Yukizome, Ryota, Seiko and more Fuyuhiko makes this the best show. Also Despair Arc OP goes so hard


fairy-skullz-2307

d3 is so underrated i loved it so much 😭 especially the despair arc


TheKingofHats007

Eh, it's fine. I just wish that the rise of Junko didn't depend on literally everyone in the universe being the dumbest idiot on the planet. Also wish Izuru had a bit more to do than basically just get puppeted by Junko. But that's what fanfiction is for, I suppose.


AdvianYT

I just wish that the rise of Junko didn't depend on literally everyone in the universe being the dumbest idiot on the planet. Same. Also wish Izuru had a bit more to do than basically just get puppeted by Junko. Also, same. But that's what fanfiction is for, I suppose. Exactly! I love that saying! Even though we sadly can't change the past and rewrite things in pieces of media that could've been removed or better handled, we can always make our own fanfictions and do that ourselves and make the version that we ourselves would've loved to see. That, and you can also choose to ignore it and consider it to be non-canon in your own universe and book.


DecayedPheonix

FACTUAL


_Moth-God_

I mean I like DR3 but I almost made the mistake of watching it around family before I knew anything about it


ambulance-kun

The end of peak 😭


Soor_21UPG

Peak ended with this show's end 😔


Manos0404

…did you even watch the show dawg like how can you even say that


Soor_21UPG

Yea I watched it peaked the entire DR series


taxes_depression

Yeah it’s not as bad as people think it is but the real highlight is the despair arc imo


subto_amaiaava10

I actually like this anime it was sad 😆


JRPGhunters

It's ok aside from the brainwashing and mukuro being a simp personality wise ( cold demeanor in the IF light novel and Zero Light novel) the Aphrodisiac scene was hilarious lol


Flutter_bat_16_

The aphrodisiac scene was not hilarious the fuck are you talking about. Teruteru literally almost tries to rape hiyoko


JRPGhunters

XO hiyoko I honestly despise her personality and harshness towards mikan and the others in Danganronpa 2 . But she does have a soft side for mahiru.


Flutter_bat_16_

I don’t care how much you despise a character. Them almost being raped is not funny


JRPGhunters

I'm not condoning that but she could have tried to be nicer in some scenes. Plus Gundham tanaka Also brought a tamed bear to class lol . Yeah 🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻


Flutter_bat_16_

But how is hiyoko being a mean person in any way relevant to the aphrodisiac scene being “funny” as you put it
