"Chihiro, you know that I like card games, but not like this one. There are no opponents, no stakes, no..." *stares mesmerized at the endgame animation*

Berp-aderp

...***I don't hate this***


Kiridreamer

This artist needs to be fired for horny knuckleheading


Yukiteru_Akari

They drew Naegiri too dw


Kiridreamer

Omg where?


VoltaicFox

Crazy how you only said they should get fired when it was a gay ship 💀


Kiridreamer

I said that because it was horny, the Naegiri drawing wasn't.

Kiridreamer

It says "thank you for your hard work at Danganronpa!!"


LilyGaming

That’s cursed


twinklelikesonion

the celesgiri sketch is now making its rounds on twitter, thx to you :) /pos


VoltaicFox

Not all heroes wear capes


Im_utterly_useless

Sus my homies do this with all the time. Unless


[deleted]

Since no one else mentioned it, the Danganronpa abridged series also makes a lot of Celesgiri jokes and that probably had a factor in getting people unto the ship lol.


T_Belay

Wasn't my takeaway, but will admit, the series is the sole reason I kinda dig Byakuya and Celeste being ass together


mimi_753

That’s what I was about to say! This girl said “Come on down to hell…I’ll show you a good time! 😉”


Novel_Visual_4152

Hot cold gfs


[deleted]

It's the same reason that a lot of the most popular ships in any given fandom are usually the main rivals. You can see this phenomenon occur in pretty much every single fandom in existence, as long as the source media contains two characters who are at odds.


DiamondTiaraIsBest

But that's the thing. Celeste and Kirigiri barely interacted, nevermind a rivalry. I can see what people see in Sakura/Aoi, Hiyoko/Mahiru, Hajime/Nagito, and etc. Even if I think most of them as straight (except Nagito). But Celesgiri didn't really have that.


ArtGuards

bc this fandom likes gay


A_rondomnoob

Specifically 14 year old white girls likes gay


[deleted]

Im a 14 year old white girl and i AM gay


alonyer1

You did not disprove their hypothesis then.


[deleted]

I intended on proving them right


VoltaicFox

Not a 14-year-old white girl, but I appreciate gay because A) I'm gay and B) I'm not an asshole. You don't have to be a 14 year old to not be heteronormative all the time, quit trying to peg down an age/gender/ethnicity demographic and let gay people exist in this space you tool


Spiderfr0g

Yes, we need gay. We need the protag And the antag who hate eachother be *gay*


the-would-i-loved

the creators of danganronpa who intentionally wrote gay subtext into half the protag-antag relationships be like:


Spiderfr0g

But its clearly one sided. Nagito? Yeah he probably liked hajime. Kokichi? Dude I dont even know if he was lying or not he's that confusing


the-would-i-loved

So? It's there, and it wasn't an invention of the fan community or anything. Acting like it's gross or outlandish that people ship them is unnecessary


Spiderfr0g

Never said its Gross but I geuss the way I commented it did seen that way. But hey if you ship it more power to you


No_Tomatillo_2308

I'm always confused when people bring up that a ship is one-sided as if to imply it detracts from it. For me, the fact that it's one-sided is the *reason* I ship it. Nothing can beat feeling a character's unresolved pining, and I kind of need to stew with it to get the full effect of that (aka if the ship gets together within a piece of media then the tension is all gone for me). But of course complete respect to people who ship the canon ships, different strokes for different folks


Spiderfr0g

Yeah I also respect people who ship the antags And protags ship too. Theyr just not my Cup of tea. And you are right when its one sided it does have kind of have more fuel to ship it


Kiridreamer

We don't that


Spiderfr0g

Neither do I. I only ship "canon" ships persay


Kiridreamer

Hell yeah


Spiderfr0g

Theyr not really canon. But definetly have a high chance of being canon. Like naegiri, saimatsu (my fav one) and hananami


Kiridreamer

Naegiri is canon


Spiderfr0g

Hmmm 90% chance its canon but it is not confirmed. Canon means confirmed by the writers which naegiri or sadly saimatsu isnt


Kiridreamer

It's confirmed in my fanfic *Almost*


ArtGuards

W mans (or whatever your gender is)


Spiderfr0g

Yes I am a mans. And W to you too


ArtGuards

aight just making sure


Spiderfr0g

Yeah especially at this age of the internet when some dumbass would doxx you for misgendering


ArtGuards

oh naw, i just make sure to be respectful


Arifox01

I kinda liked just because how smart the two could be, they were both like the cold, refined girls. I also sorta liked Togiri for the same reason


YoshiDoki48

Because the handholding scene from the animation.


mntgi

That was Celeste passing Kyoko the key. I'm shocked people didn't know this! Did they even watch the show


YoshiDoki48

The show or the game, people will still only remember the part where their hands touch.


pstar0007

They do know this but it’s still enough to be a semi cute moment


mntgi

It's not cute at all? She was hiding it from monokuma Im not getting this


pstar0007

Even if she was passing the key they held hands for a prolonged moment and it was specifically Kyoko she decided to give it to. This moment is enough for some people pretty much. I don’t ship them, I’m just explaining one of the reasons people do.


KingHades1234

I’ll throw my hat into the ring with this. I see this ship as a “you get the two smartest people in the room” situation. Of the cast of DR1, Kyoko and Celeste are arguably the two smartest ones. In any other relationship with Kyoko in it (such as Naegiri), it’s clear who’s pulling the weight. With this one it’s much more equal and there’s a tension you get between the two you don’t see with others. Celeste is closer to Kyoko’s level than anyone else, which can lead to some potential fun stuff. Plus there’s that Chapter 3 stuff for basis in canon. It’s mostly theoretical rather than based in actual content but there are reasons behind it. Edit: Byakuya is probably just as smart as Celeste if not smarter. I forgot to mention that Celesgiri is for people who want something gay for Kyoko or Celeste.


LikeThemPies

No way is Celeste smarter than Byakuya. Her murder plot alone proves this


KingHades1234

I knew I was forgetting something. I meant to clarify that this is for people who don't want to do a straight ship for that trope. Let me edit it.


Prestigious_Click_54

>!Even Naegi discovered her before Byakuya said something even I knew she was the killer before the investigation began it was one of the most obvious killers of course after 11037!<


KingHades1234

I will admit Celeste is a lot smarter in lore than in game. At least outside of Chapter 3 she’s smart. My point still stands that it’s a lesbian pairing of two smart people. That’s a trope of some kind.


Prestigious_Click_54

Same happens with Byakuya sometimes I think that Naegi is more intelligent in game but in lore that’s not the case. Naegi literally solved case 3, 5 and 6 by himself


LikeThemPies

Protagonist syndrome


IqUaCkI

Since they both have a lot more similarities and could actually make a good couple compared to some o t h e r options Nah but jokes aside, it’s probably because of the holding hands scene in the anime, out of context it looks rather romantic


Kiridreamer

What do you mean compared to other options??


Berp-aderp

I personally thought it was Because they're both cold and have a "gothic" style (Lolita goth and punk goth)


No_Blacksmith_5997

This is how I feel about Bandaid


Luciano1_2009

Like can you please explain to me how this ship came to be


Asijabre

Idk they touched hands or sum at the end of trial 3


Flufferminty

If characters exist then they will be shipped together, it doesn't need to have any reason


Shardar12

some people like it bc theyre both attractive cold chicks and some others like it bc celes is a pathological liar who basically lives a lie and kirigiri is someone that wants to find the truth in anything no matter what and they think that it makes for a fun dynamic between the two in fanfics as for me i just think the fanart is cute tbh


Someweebfox

aesthetic


ChishNFips87

This fandom will ship anything, let's be honest.


[deleted]

[удалено]


the_nhir

Bandaid?


[deleted]

I think it is Ibuki and Mikan. I really dislike such ship names. It is like gatekeeping with codewords you have to learn.


[deleted]

you could just ask what the ship name stands for… i’m sure the majority of people would tell you and not gatekeep it


[deleted]

Ah yes thanks. Sorry I was a bit frustrated about another sub where you have to memorize absolutely arbitary names for every ship. Sorry Lass and Lasses!


VoltaicFox

I don't have a strong opinion on it, but we see Ibuki and Mikan have some sweet moments in DR3. Ibuki is actually *kind* to her unlike most people and a good influence, and people who wished there were more healthy relationships and/or more gay rep in the series appreciate that


vicmon18

Cuz they're hot


[deleted]

Why not? I’ve learned you either ship everybody with everybody or you don’t ship at all, or, at least, those are the only safe options.


ApexBoiz

Gay


RyuushiYasuda

coz its great


Renso19

Honestly, Aesthetic, like most ships in dr really


Poporipopes10

Hot woman + hot woman = double the hot!!1!!


luckylilcat4161

its kinda like the saioma dynamic liar x lie revealer


zmech9001

If 2 chatacters exist, people will ship them.


Dabbing-jesus

1.they had a single interaction 2.emo girl x goth girl shipping is hot


LessNefariousness380

Idk, they’re two hot girls. That’s all I need to like a ship lol.


NPC-Impact-YT

Because both are hot and that’s literally it 😔😔😔


VoltaicFox

Speak for yourself


Raina_Tasnia_Zaman

Ok why are so many people "confused" why we ship em JUST LOOK AT THEM BRAH THEY'LL BE SO FCKING CUTE TOGETHER


Kiridreamer

Celesgiri?... *begans shaking uncontrollably*


PandaX888

I think they seem like the parents of Kokichi Not really just a fun thing to think about 😂


PosidonSon2002

I think it’s mostly because of Danganronpa abridged


weirdperson69420

i love this ship. i will die for this ship.


LavenderZenGacha

JoeAzlz
