Former Suiko student and resident of room 201 Oh yeah, and remember to watch/read/play The Pet Girl of Sakurasou! 19, She/Her 🏳️⚧️, Obligatory lolisho/proship DNI penguplayhouse.neocities.org 👈
The anime ditches all subtlety and completely recontextualizes this scene, not even mentioning the context of Uzuki's school situation but instead bringing up random reasons. There's no correlation between the incident and her reaction anymore.
The novels don't spell out to you why Uzuki is upset, but you're able to piece it together with context. Uzuki was one of those kids who grew up being unable to attend school, and it's this moment where it finally clicks in her head what people really thought about her back them.
I've been wanting to complain about this scene since I read Lost Singer but I've only just gotten around to it now. The anime adaptation completely misinterpreted what made Uzuki upset in this scene in a way that I think really hurts the story.
Another copy of this bootleg has popped up again on eBay, I'd buy it if it wasn't $50 but it's funny to see. Also wow it's really tiny. Now you can see what it looks like on the inside.
Fun fact, if you go to read a sample of the book on its Amazon page, it will instead give you a sample of Rascal Does Not Dream of His Girlfriend lol
Happy 10th anniversary to Danganronpa 3, AKA the most overhated entry in the series! Seeing as Spike Chunsoft refuses to post anything about it, I suppose I'll have to just make my own.
Earwig and the Witch - 4/10 I see the heart of a good movie here but I think it ended up feeling kinda underdeveloped, and that's not even mentioning the obvious ugly visual style that makes it look like a Disney Jr. show. Everything looks so plasticky.
For a list of things Koizumi actually worked on, his page on the Tookyo Games website credits him with assisting with the scenario for basically everything in the series after Danganronpa 2 along with some spinoffs like Ultra Despair Hagakure and Gaiden.
On complete accident, I stumbled across an alternate cover for volume 5 as well. I wasn't able to find a better picture of it but you can be assured that when I do, I'll add it to the fan page.
Also I'm still learning Japanese so if I said something stupid pls don't kill me. Murder is actually really frowned in Japan since it goes against the traditional concept of 生きる which means "to live."
I was wondering what slayhem was called in the Japanese version and it turns out it's "kyoki" written in katakana which sounds like "狂気" meaning insanity and "凶器" meaning weapon. The localization seems to have adapted the double meaning into a pun and I think that's neat.
Statement from Kodaka about Danganronpa 2x2 "When we made the original, the entire team thought 'This water doesn't make me thirsty.' We wanted to rectify that, so thanks to modern technology, we were finally able to achieve our original vision in 2x2." www.spike-chunsoft.com/news/danganr...
I don't dislike the style of the later stuff but idk I liked the bigger eyes
As a nerd about fonts, I notice this a lot too. I remember the Switch 2 version of Kirby and the Forgotten Land uses the font too. My brain will just always associate the font with Danganronpa even though it's just a stock font.
Please announce English releases for The Pet Girl of Sakurasou I will literally sell my soul
I wonder what it is about fans that gives me the urge to stick things in them
