All Danganronpa Executions Ranked Worst to Best

[@SunburnedAlbino]

Idk what people are talking about with Gundam's execution, he literally drops the hamsters off to the side and gets killed nowhere near them, why do they need a "protection spell"

[@justcupcakeaka]

maybe they mean a protection spell as in they’ll be safe from all harm in the future because he’ll be gone?

[@Aisubun]

It's for him and the reason it fails is because it's just another part of his act (or chunibyo-ism if you're enough of a weeb to understand that word)

[@teresawatson1038]

It was to stop them from getting in the way of the buffalo

[@downbeatdialga1341]

There’s a theory that in Kyoko/Makoto’s execution, they progressively turn blue, because they’re trying to hold their breath long enough that they’d pass out before they reach the crusher.

[@DostawcaSwiezejJakosciTasmy]

That make sence 🤔

[@Akikai.2]

Poor thing 😭

[@downbeatdialga1341]

By that point, that’s their last hope. I mean that’s certainly a quick way to go, but it doesn’t make it any less unnerving

[@ACherrry]

That's an ....understandable reaction i mean i don't wanne be conscious either when i die

[@downbeatdialga1341]

It also shows you how disturbed Junko was, that when she met her end under the press, she was overjoyed for a majority of it, only looking up in dismay at the very end.

[@Moxziii]

Kiyo’s execution detail Death 1 is for killing Angie Death 2 is for not voting

[@downbeatdialga1341]

@Kasha O'Basha I mean, if you know you’re going down in the killing game, that’s one rule that really doesn’t make a difference whether you uphold or omit. Monokuma said he’d punish students who didn’t vote. Though I bet Kiyo didn’t think Monokuma could come up with any punishment worse than his execution. Then Monokuma played the sister card, and we see how that played out.

[@discosaladdd]

Fun facttttt! The song that was played while Kaede was executed was her favorite to play on the piano! It was played wrong sicne there were no black notes used, which shows that she wasn’t the blackened and she was innocent! (This is a theory, but it makes sense duh)

[@szszofia06]

Kaito didn't die from poison bc he got the antidote or idk how they call it. In fact, he dies from his illnes, the virus that everyone thought he was immune to it just like the others. Before the execution, he can nearly stand and speak and he coughed blood.

[@yourmom_96]

Even if he wasn't executed, he was bound to die anyway.

[@yellowstarproductions6743]

Agreed

[@StuckInALockerRoom]

Yes

[@MrShisuto]

I still feel Kaede’s was the most painful because she felt like she had no choice if she wanted to save everyone. Unlike the majority of characters, she did what she thought she did because she wanted to save them all.

[@jayreid2513]

And the fact that she wasn't even guilty in the end- ouch

[@yellowstarproductions6743]

@@jayreid2513 agreed

Real Chiaki’s execution from the anime actually made my stomach hurt from how sad it was

[@muno8503]

that was real hoping to survive

[@sugar-cane-v4x]

yeah :(

[@hahachickem8675]

Destroyed me LMAO

[@Sleepiness.]

fun fact: in the manga, they explain that Junko is quite literally a demon, and thats how she was able to survive all the execution's up until the final one.

[@jaysmall5978]

Interesting thing I noticed - most of the time, when a character is executed via crushing you get this massive pink splat upon impact, but with Chiaki's execution you don't get that. A deliberate choice, given that she isn't a real person, perhaps?

[@muno8503]

Maybe and also all executions in Danganronpa 2 are fake because they are in simulation

[@kohammy184]

​@@muno8503 yeah but there was blood in peko's and gundham's executions

[@aizichi]

kaede was also being stoned the whole time, + there's a theory that her execution actually went on for hours cuz of the clock in the back and that she could breathe everytime she stepped on a key but I'm not 100% sure

[@discosaladdd]

Oh yeah apparently it went on for hours Eesh

[@dosharonpa]

“V3 has the worst executions!” SDRA2: (This is a joke both of them are brutal)

[@Aehattori]

8 hours..

[@RobloxPlayerssss]

@@dosharonpait’s a fangame

[@jjthefb_gaming]

Correction: Kaito dies from his illness, not from poison since he took the antidote for the poison.

[@Zinjo]

Gundham at 13 is crazy lmao , even detattching it from anything to do with the story before and after it's still solid and hits all the notes of the best executions (belief there's chance of survival , ridiculous twist ending , emotional storybeat) maybe a little simple but that's all I can see wrong with it , it's not THAT far off the best of the DR2 executions

[@Buggyfish]

Not only that but the drawing wasn’t pointless, it was an anime reference which is totally fitting for his character. Thinking that it would save him because he believes (and behaves as if) he has magical powers.

[@Mio_fields]

​@@BuggyfishI'm pretty sure from what I've heard is that he did that as a protection spell for his dark devas

[@nacitalatincirli793]

@@Mio_fields that doesn’t make much sense, gundham is the one being executed, not his hamsters, so he could’ve easily placed them somewhere away from the stampede(which was what he did). The spell was likely there to protect himself, which is him believing in his magic till the very end, fitting of his delusional personality.

[@arteshinobi10.2]

3:18 what makes me so sad about this execution is that this is so brutal, remember when Makoto put a towel on Chihiro (Ai version of himself) he said "it tickles!" like if those kind of slight action he is tickled what more of an excavator pounding him 😬

[@dysphoriaax]

fun fact: der flohwalzer, both the name of kaede's execution and the song she's playing as she's being hung to death, is supposed to be one of the first piano songs learned due to how simple it is. it's only played with the black keys. however, monokuma is making kaede play it with only the white notes. i can only imagine how infuriating that must've felt to her, with her being the ultimate pianist. like, him going out of his way to play one of the most simple piano songs the wrong way just to piss her off b4 death? that's gotta sting.

[@discosaladdd]

Also symbolism for the fact that she was innocent! Since only the white notes were played, it’s referencing that she wasn’t the blackened at all

[@BrandonSwinney-j2v]

I was just posting something like this in a reply to another comment before I saw yours

[@trans_kiwi]

I think that celeste got killed by a fire truck because she WANTED to die in this extravagant way but ended up getting killed by a car "accident" which is the most common way to die. Thus ending her life in a boring bland way, which is the only way she could feel TRUE dispair.

[@vadandrumist1670]

I would say my favorite is Leon's because of how simplistic it is. All of the others have a scale that either borders on or is just straight-up ridiculous. Leon's though is something I could see being built in real life which only heightens the horror-factor. The closed-in nature with the students in the background is perfect for an execution ground.

[@mrshinygiratina5360]

I’d never thought I’d see this from your channel

[@ladylight9375]

The thing that makes kaedes execution even worse is that Monokuma did it deliberately by making her feet hit the keys she was getting enough oxygen to stay conscious which is why her neck did not snap and it took so long before she lost consciousness plus Monokuma was deliberately playing it wrong as the ultimate pianist obviously she'd want the notes played correctly

[@Jake_NekoNekoyama]

And it was her favorite song.

[@ladylight9375]

@@Jake_NekoNekoyama I thought her favorite was Claire de lune?

[@Jake_NekoNekoyama]

@@ladylight9375 Is it? I.just heard it was Kaede's favorite song played wrong during her execution.

[@BrandonSwinney-j2v]

@@Jake_NekoNekoyama the song she's playing is actually what her execution is named after. It's a song for beginners, so monokuma is using her body to poorly play what was probably the first song she learned. It's also played mainly with the black keys, but he makes kaede keep hitting the white keys

[@max_is_always_silly]

I think the interesting thing about Gundham and Celestia's execution is that it goes against their beliefs on purpose. To Celestia, uniqueness has always been something she strived for. That's why she pretended her name was Celestia, et cetera. And being burned like a witch, that's a unique way to die. Only for her to end up dying by a vehicle accident, which is one of the most common causes of death. As for Gundham. He always talked about how evil he is and that he will fill hell with true hell. Only to be brought to heaven after his death. And now that I started going on a tangent, something I realized is that all v3 executions are built up from 3 segments For Kaede, she gets hung, stoned, and crushed. For Kirumi, she climbs a thorny rope, gets cut, and plummets to the ground For Kiyo, he gets melted, exorcised, and realizes his sister doesn't actually care about him For Gonta, he gets swarmed, stabbed, and burned alive For Kaito, however, he gets to show the mastermind a middle finger in 3 ways. He dies with a smile on his face, the cause of death is his own illness, not the execution, and what is most important, his dream of travelling to space is fulfilled For the Ultimate Annihilation though, the school gets blown up, Tsumugi gets crushed, and Kiibo blows up.

[@Notheare]

I feel bad for Celestia so i think about it as technically its not against what is important for her because like... Getting executed in a simulated witch burning and then hit by a firettuck? Pretty unique tbf 😂

[@Jake_NekoNekoyama]

Celesteia and Gundham also smild their execution.

[@musikmann95]

i don't know if you even played v3 or not, cause if you paid even a little attention to the story, you would know Kaito was dying to his disease, not the poison. So that's an execution whose ranking I disagree with for that reason alone, cause Kaito dying during the execution pisses off Monokuma and it's always fun to see that

[@kayllaa_ee]

i completely agree and the fact that he got to see the stars before his death, and it pays tribute to the headmaster’s execution, too 5 for me personally

[@hosehouse812]

9:26 in the danganronpa anime, chiaki is actually given a hope of getting out and seeing her friends but ends up being impaled just as she reaches for them.

[@Christian-gr3gu]

I love the fact that chiaki didnt show any blood cause shes a program really nice

[@nathanrodriguez-jg7ln]

Chiakis execution is so creative, I loved the idea of her dying to Tetris.

[@Akikai.2]

"Lucky students don't get murdered. If anything, they kill themselves." I hate how you just referenced nagito's death

[@Kro-RissaVirus]

The real Chiaki’s execution in the anime is even more insane given she’s sent through a death maze and they spend an entire episode on her execution/torture playing out.

[@ladylight9375]

Celeste execution was specially chosen for her as well she wanted all eyes on her which she got with the burning at the stake, but then she got taken out in the most common of deaths a car accident granted it was a fire truck

[@aizichi]

V3 executions were BRUTAL

[@thapelosishi]

I find Celeste's execution so interesting because what ended up killing her was one of the most common causes of death. And if you know her...that's an extra sting.

[@Desaday939]

Worst:bye bye ouchies (mikan) Best:cultural melting pot (korekiyo)

[@michaellatner975]

Honestly i do kinda want to defend some of the lower executions, not all of em, some i agree with but some i don't. (Also i don't mean anything here with hostility, i am just a weird dude who wants people to be on the same page if i get something wrong i will see if stuff makes sense.) #21 I believe the reason why he came back as a skeleton is due to the air friction causing the ship to heat up extremely causing the inside of the ship to essentially become a giant cremation for the headmaster. So he was reduced to bone since all of his skin, muscle, and blood burned up due to the heat. #15: It's highly believe that in reality what happened is that monokuma actually stabbed her and injected her with a lethal overdose and the rest of the execution is a mixture of reality with hallucinations where monokuma again sent her into space while she was slowly dying so that her slow death would be mixed with a lack of oxygen resulting in a even more trippy death for mikan. #13: That's an alchemy circle, so it seems Gundahm was trying to make some kind of object to block the stampede by using the sand around him, but he was too slow in doing so causing his death, but atleast he kept his hamsters safe so i'm fine with it. #11: DUDE KAITO HAD A DISEASE THAT WAS KILLING HIM THROUGHOUT THE GAME, he didn't ingest any kind of poison, dude literally let go of the last of his strength once he saw he was in space . For #10 it's just a bit of a fun fact but this execution becomes a lot more brutal once you know the story they took this from in history, involving Goemon and his execution. Also #3 if you pay attention he rarely takes any baseballs to the face until the end, so he was repeatedly beaten with baseballs basically turning his bones into fucking dust from the amount of force being exerted all over his body so leon was probably in EXTREME pain until the end. Finally for #2 if you pay attention to the background Kaede was being hung over the course of 8 FUCKING HOURS, that is probably one of the worst deaths for a student, ESPECIALLY FOR THE FACT SHE DIDN'T DO IT. She not only had to be hung, she also seemingly took a breath whenever she was placed on a key, then she was being pelted by rocks from the audience, then she had to listen to a very simple piano piece being played horribly incorrectly, FOR 8 HOURS.

[@bunayogaming_q2841]

#2 Kaede wasn’t confirmed to be struggling for 8 hours during that execution, the clock going crazy probably references how the execution goes crazy at the end.

[@taketheshot2313]

This might be the most horrendous take on Danganronpa executions ive ever seen in my life Funny video though

"death by a thousand balls"

[@mtgmead4480]

The execution of celeste is accutaly quite well thought out like Kirumi celeste was given hope not for freedom but for a lavish death a death that is seen as a special occasion hence her smile while being burned and monokuma removes that by being crushed by the fire truck removing her "glorious death" for a more common/traumatic end

[@echothemoongoddess7445]

Keades death took 6 hours because whenever she hit the keys she was able to get aa gulp of air by the end she was probably happy it was over and everyone else would not have to see this anymore

[@BonazaiGirl]

I think what would’ve made the rocket one better if they kept the original idea of the rocket doubling as an _Iron Maiden._ P.S. The rocket was initially planned for Leon Kuwada funny enough before they went with the baseball-themed execution.

[@pinkiegirly725]

I feel like kirumi and Kaede and chuki would be the best ones but I agree for all them 👍

[@fightinggamegeek9238]

7:10. I view Celeste’s execution more like this. A grand execution was set up for her. She was going to die memorably, regally… or so she thought. Instead, she got one of the most common deaths in the world- being hit by a vehicle.

[@aelvric7579]

Seeing Sunburned Albino and Danganronpa on the same screen feels like something you'd see in a fever dream. Not like I'm against it tho

[@Bingus743]

I have a theory that Kyoko's execution/the bad ending was just Makoto's hallucination. Bit fuzzy on what happens in the game, so bare with me. Makoto didn't know Alter ego was 'alive', so Kyoko being saved wouldn't have been hallucinated, we get sent right back to the selection of trusting Kyoko or not with Byakuya(or someone else) saying something "Hey snap out of it" or something(again bare with me my memory on this is fuzzy). As for the randomness of Aoi having 20000 children, it's a hallucination random goofy things are going to happen. As for why the executions are so similar, there's no reason lore wise, I chalked it up to time/money reasons on the development team.

[@idka4u200]

The guy in the 21st place is named Jin kirigi he was burned due to the heat

[@TotalleeLee]

The after school execution in the first game was more Makoto’s… because that’s the true ending and Kyoko was not supposed to be there.

[@dawnhort]

Is it just me or I love Chiaki's execution because of the opening music T-T

[@AGJ117]

Another thing about Kaede's execution is that she was also getting stoned by the audience booing at her for the awful performance.

[@Idkanodialoga3022]

number 25's executer name is jin kirigi kyoko's dad

[@Xxhappy-homexX]

The one reason why I think it was a good idea for mondo to become butter is bc his name ( idk like Japanese or somethin ) actually means butter so that’s why I think it was a good idea

[@bunayogaming_q2841]

For Jin’s execution, he turned into a skeleton due to the rocket spinning at such fast speeds that everything melted.

[@Synnabelle]

Did you hide this video. I went to watch it last night and it was gone, wake up and it's back

[@BrandonSwinney-j2v]

the reason makoto's execution doesn't fit him might be because it was meant for kyoko. Monokuma might have had this ready to use on her, only for makoto to unexpectedly end up taking the fall.

[@BrandonSwinney-j2v]

also, mondo's execution is a reference to little black sambo, where a boy gives 3 tigers his clothes, the tigers argue over which one is best dressed, and they then chase eachother around a tree until they turn into butter, which the boy's mother then puts on pancakes. It's a fairy tale so I cut the story a bit of slack for an odd ending. I don't know the connection between the story and mondo, but I know there is one

[@AceK3chi]

Fun fact: Gundahms “spell” (idk what to call it) was to save his hamsters, not him
