Hmm could it be..... David was originally was the Main Protagonist and Teruko was the Main Antagonist, David Support is Xander! And the one who also support David too is Arei, Hu and Mai! I think this killing game is repeat itself (Veronika have proof) Until David go crazy and want change it to broke the killing game system? I think? (Represent Time) (Eden stabbed Xander in his eyes) New: Teruko is the Protagonist, David is Antagonist Hu is now against on David. Arei is now dead.... Xander is now dead... ......David going to die on Chapter 3...? His dead body going to resemble that mannequin... Teruko is the real troublemaker. Her luck cause other in danger(?) Eden is her support. (Eden could be Mastermind?) Or is Veronika Mastermind? I hope we get to see Mai Akasaki!

The idea that David was the one to manipulated Xander to kill Teruko is looking more and more plausible considering we got a hair red lady present so David must have known her.

[@wisteri_]

personally i think _everyone_ in the drdt cast knew this girl, not just david and teruko

[@snakesareamazing]

But why would David do that? He clearly cared about Xander. I mean, the video literally shows Xander during the "If something is important, then it will break and disappear". Xander was someone important to David

[@nightvalecitizen]

​@@snakesareamazing+ his whole thing is manipulation tbh, i do think it's unlikely ( but not completely out of the question ) that David didn't hold any care for Xander. i think it's more of a 'sociopath cares for somebody else for the first time' kind of trope, or something similar to it

[@snakesareamazing]

@@nightvalecitizen I wouldn't call David a sociopath, he's just nihilistic and depressed

[@Someone-or2uq]

The issue with this is that in the prolouge first part, the first few seconds is showing a person with blood on papers talking about how he needed to end the killing game or kill teruko. Im assuming it to be Xander Cause of the amount of blood so I assume it's from his eye.

Exclude our protagonist-he is not “that person.” Why are they using a male pronoun to refer to the protagonist? I had this theory that Teruko was not the true protagonist, and it as David

Maybe also playing in the fact that Teruko is the protag but tends to act more like an antag. Maybe someone else was supposed to be in that place and her luck placed her in that position instead? I get what you mean with David but I also feel like it could have been Xander.

[@woofcat8979]

oh gosh i think i discovered something really bad 😭😭😭 in episode one of the series you can see that somebody was attacked by a fork and says the person that attacked them was a she, if you look at 3:00 a clock has a fork stabbed into it. as we know eden is the ultimate clockmaker and also goes by she/her pronouns, the person stabbed by the fork (which im assuming is xander if you look at the pattern of the scratches on his eye) says "i made a massive mistake to trust them." and eden is probably the most "trustable" person in the cast. so i'm thinking eden was actually the one who attacked xanders eye, and maybe asked for him to kill teruko

Not a theorist but tried organizing the footnotes + timestamps a little for any1 who needs it 1: 1:22 In this situation, it is better to use full names over nicknames. Exclude our protagonist-he is not “that person.” Crossword with each of the cast’s (excluding David) names in it. Roman numbers are scattered all across the video with the lyrics matching the character that is the roman number. (Sometimes the lyrics matched don’t really make sense with the character (for now)) I. Alexander 3:49 I have no idea if it counts but “(the world of abnormal sentiment dances)” II. Rose 1:34 ”Ego cogito ergo (turbatus) sum” Cogito ergo sum comes from latin and means I think, therefore I am. Ego cogito ergo (turbatus )sum can be translated to “I think, therefore I am (troubled)” III. Charles 1:37 “If you doubt, brittle things are broken” IV. Arei 1:39 “Right now, why do you cry?” V. Ace 1:41 “Right now, why do you go insane? VI. Arturo 2:41 “mind exercises 1 2 3 4” VII. Julia 2:10 ”Do it like that let’s live together!” VIII. Nico 2:43 “Even if you try to think, idk!!! (lmao)” IX. Levi 2:46 “look aside from that, give me the usual medicine” X. Min 2:01 "Who knows? But let's decide! Democratic-ly" XI. 1:48 Mai “God is dead” XII. Eden 2:27 “???: But you’re in my way, aren’t you?” XIII. Teruko 1:54 “To be or not to be?” XIV. Veronika 1:43 “Things like substance of the arts” XV. Whit 1:46 “Remaining ignorant, isn’t that ‘happiness?’” XVI. Hu 2:26 “???: Go and cry.” 2: 3:02 Other examples include Drosophila melanogaster and E. coli. The flowers are Arabidopsis. No idea of this one. Edit: What they have in common is fast reproductibility, so they're good for experimentation 3: 2:18 From Title 17 of the United States Code. "derivative work" 4: 1:46 The practice of avoiding the number four; it is most common in East Asia. This superstition arises from the fact that the number four can be read similar to the word “death” in multiple languages. I’m actually unsure if this is the right time stamp? If it is it may relate to Whit’s avoidance of his mother’s death. Edit: it is the right one but it's unrelated lol still funny coincidence Tetraphobia is the word for the definition on the footnote. 5: 3:11 As the translation has been intentionally botched in many parts, it should not be considered accurate. . The vocaloid wiki lyrics goes “The idiots fancying themselves as revolutionaries, Let's give them tickets with lead and make them write with blood” but I have no idea how accurate of a translation it is, and it is unessential anyway but just wanted to put it out there. 6: 2:02 (Prayer) 7: 2:43 Seven is considered an auspicious number in many Western cultures. Let's just skip it. 8. ‘Tut, tut, child!’ said the Duchess. ‘Everything's got a moral, if only you can find it.’ (Not found) 9: 2:08 no respect for the classics smh degraded copy lol 10: 2:01 The Roman numeral for 10 is X. 11: 1:33 I admit to lying. There is no one named 〇〇〇〇〇 〇〇〇〇〇. I am, and always have been, an only child. Suspicious gaps. Almost everyone theorises the gaps say Diana Chiem. 12: 2:02 “Majority rule” is known to be the fairest method of making decisions for a group. That's why murderers never complained when we voted for them to die. 13: 2:39 正 正 meaning correct.

The expression comes from a 1742 Thomas Gray poem (“Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College"): “Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise.” 16: 2:50 While it was originally intended to serve as a military march, today it is most commonly recognized for its association with circuses and tomfoolery.

[@beatrootsheep3746]

Originally, this was supposed to include images so this comment may not make sense. I just copy and pasted this from my notes. I will release a google doc maybe tho I am going to share some theories. Something that has always caught my eye is how danganronpa despair time has a unique spin on the protagonist and antagonist roles. Ever since i heard the interpretations that Teruko is the antagonist but we are in her point of view, making her the protagonist of drdt, makes me interested already. However, after watching, I have noticed something about our fan favourite antagonist David. What if David Chiem was supposed to be the protagonist to the game’s system? The thought of this came to my mind when I noticed David Chiem’s ahoge. It is silly but he has the protagonist ahoge. I think the only character (besides Teruko) who has it. I’ve thought deeper into his role of the antagonist in Teruko’s eyes: what if he IS the protagonist to the game’s system, however turned to be the real antagonist all along. More points to support this, (credits to finally_in_reverse in the yt comments) in Literature Girl Insane fan-mv where David Chiem stars in, the description mentions this certain line: “In this situation, it is better to use full names over nicknames. Exclude our protagonist-he is not “that person.”” The protagonist is referred with he/him pronouns, so it can’t be Teruko since in canon, yknow. You know who else is referred in he/him pronouns? David Chiem. I do not know what the line means though, but I know David is very suspicious. It is obvious that Teruko has an antagonistic personality: pessimism and blunt. On the other hand, David’s personality at first was like a protagonist: hopeful, optimistic and awkward. (I cannot find keywords to describe personalities better, pls let me know if i seemed to mischaracterise them) However, he later descends to madness in chapter 2’s trial and reveals his true antagonistic personality. David was actually manipulative and selfish. I had this small thought: “was there/will there be a phase where Teruko acts like an actual protagonist?” But that is not important. I think there is a reason why he acts like a bitch though… let’s look at the lore I had a theory, the game is stuck in a time loop and David is trying to stop it. Veronika foreshadows this by telling us a story about “a boy stuck in a time loop and forced to watch his friends die for eternity” and so on. Some of the descriptions matches David, don’t you think? “While he is horrified at first” it could be David’s starry-eyed persona being genuine in the earlier time loops. “Becomes more concerned over his growing boredom” “starts to fall into a more sinister tone” David is foul-mouthed. Since the story Veronika talks about might be in the boy’s perspective… “protagonist descends into insanity over time” David is an insane person. manipulated people. It maybe not be accurate, but what Veronika said is definitely foreshadow. this reminded me of another part in Drdt, especially the way beginning of this serious, I had a thought: you know the mysterious, unnamed person in the prologue? What if the person in the beginning of the prologue, episode 1, is the boy stuck in the time loop The boy wants to end the killing game as he is sick of seeing his friends die. Using his memory of the previous loops, he tries to fix mistakes and even end up tricking the game system by switching David and Teruko’s roles in the game. Let’s go back to the literary girl nonsense mv. A screen cap shows a cast list. The main roles are listed: David Chiem and Xander Matthews. Which is unusual, Teruko is supposed to be the main cast right? Instead, she is listed under “supporting cast”. There was also a name: Mai Akasaki crossed out. If you don’t know Mai, she is the red hair girl that appeared in Teruko’s flashback. This proved my point further that David was the protagonist. Teruko was the antagonist. Xander could be the secondary protagonist that was supposed to live until the end of game then. Remember in chapter 1, there was a note saying “kill Teruko” that was sent to Xander? It was never confirmed who sent the note. But I do have an idea that David was the one that sent the note. Xander is a big fan of David, so David uses that as an advantage to control him to attempt to kill Teruko. But why would he do that? The answer is, so he messes up the Danganronpa’s system so the protagonist and antagonist roles switch, to stop the time loop I guess as he doesn’t want to watch his friends die all over again. And he has also been lead to insanity. David is not the only one I am suspicious about though… Veronika is suspicious. If the foreshadowing is true, how does she know all this? Could she be the mastermind? Maybe the game’s system got messed up so she broke in? Could she be involved with the mastermind, perhaps the traitor? David and Veronika definitely have memories about the past time loops then… Tdlr: David was the protagonist stuck in the time loop of the killing game. He was horrified at his friends dying so in the next loops, he tries to end the game, only resulting his friends die all over again and again. This time, he sends a note to his friend that stayed by him the last loops, Xander. This makes things different by switching his and Teruko’s roles of the “protagonist”, tricking the system. This is so he hopes things will turn out different and the game ends.

[@THEMINDCASTLE]

The time loop theory is fucking brilliant thank you so much

[@blueodog]

I feel like afew more people know they're in a loop and my main suspect is J : because when nico said that they did try to kill ace J was angry and talked about murder like she expirinced it alot before since she comes from a rich and famous family if one of her family members got murdered it will be in the news and people will talk about it since she and arturo who is a big fan of her family never bring it up its a sign that murder didn't come from her family her hatred for her family could be a sign she didn't have friends and that's because of her mother so murder had to come from somewhere else pheraps a killing game? Maybe I'm looking into it too far but that's my theory

[@mountain_hills]

This is an awesome theory! It also correlates with the "Eden is the mastermind because Danganronpa: Despair TIME" theory.

[@beatrootsheep3746]

@@mountain_hills ooo? can u explain? Im interested

[@mountain_hills]

@@beatrootsheep3746 so, a few people have considered Eden's personality to be very suspicious, as she is a very optimistic person in the middle of a killing game (she's also one of the people who didn't have breakdowns yet). By the way, she's trying really hard to befriend Teruko which is kind of weird. And they have also noted that Eden's talent is "Ultimate Clockmaker", which looks very suspicious due to the title. And I think Eden being the mastermind could correlate to the theory of a time loop since of the previous points.

[@akutagawasolos]

at 3:07 it says main roles: David Chiem Xander Matthews Supporting Cast: Teruko Tawaki Arei Nageishi Hu Jing Mai Akasaki (thata skribbled out tho) it leaves me with so many questions like -maybe Xanders not actually dead?? i feel like story wise if any of the characters were to actually be alive, it woukd be Xander -Is David the real protag? I always kind of fwlt like maybe Teruko wasnt the actualy protag but idk. I just feel like something gonna happen to her or smthing just gonna happen in general -Whats Hu Jing doing there, like why is she there??? -I also think that Areis death is going to play a big part in the whole killing game based on the fact that her name was on that list. idk tho, tell me if you have any ideas going along with this

[@DestinyPizzileo]

Tbh... I think Hu is gonna end up being a culprit, because her hidden quote is 'I want to pay for what I've done. Even then, I want to live.' And sadly I think Hu is gonna kill David, hence the blood splatter on him with the words 'chapter 3' and 'I'll leave' shown at the end of this MV. Unless there's about to be some major plot twist in the Chapter 2 Trial involving Hu, such as her being Arei's killer, I don't see why else she'd be listed there. Hu is already very close to David, too- she said David knew how she felt, so like, it's implied she confided in him about her secret (speculated to be the suicide one) and there's definitely more to their relationship then we're seeing currently. I also have a theory based on Arturo's hidden quote 'You "hated them", but even that doesn't justify what you did' that Arturo is going to direct this quote at one of the killers in the trial, possibly one who did a double-kill judging by the word 'them' in the quote. If that's the case, Hu will probably kill David, and one other person. Ace, maybe, idk. In chapter 3: Because that's when the double-kills in Danganronpa always happen. And Hu has reason to "hate" David now, and she already hates Ace. thank you for coming to my ted talk lol

[@moomA5158]

​@tinaangelica2760 WAIT YOU'RE ON TO SOMETHING ACTUALLY!!! David said his secret was about having a family history of depression initially, so it makes sense that even if they weren't the closest (if they were close before the secrets were given out, people wouldn't have been so shocked about Hu saying she was 'betrayed' or whatever she said i cant remember tbh) of all people, she might turn to him, especially if her secret was about suicide.

[ 3:00 ] **Mai Akasaki** - "**Portrait of someone dearly loved**" **Teruko Tawaki** - "**Portrait of someone dearly unloved**" Theory: David may have manipulated Xander into killing Teruko, to avenge Mai in some sort of way. This would explain why Xander listened to the note rather than flatly refused, because he looked up to David and had a celebrity crush (sort of) on him, meaning he would be more likely to follow orders if he knew it was from David. I presume that both David and Teruko knew Mai, but Mai suffered the consequences of Teruko’s bad luck and either died or wound up severely injured (most likely dead). This could have lead David to grow hateful towards Teruko and believing it was her fault, which isn’t much of a stretch considering the few memories that remain intact prior to the Killing Game are ones that the Headmaster believes would be more likely to drive you to kill. This isn’t to say David didn’t love/care for Xander, he very clearly did, this is just some food for thought.

No idea of what the description means, but it's probably a phrase so my theory for the fourth one: In japanese, the number four can be read as "shi", just like death 四 → kanji for four, pronunciation being "shi" 死 → kanji for death, pronunciation also being "shi" "Shi" has the same pronunciation as "she", which leads to the word being "she" JUST A THEORY BTW

[@kiyohimeisbetterthanmorgan220]

Guys the last name on the supporting cast list at 3:06 says: "M[] Naegi" if you compare the three middle letters of the surname (if you can't see them zoom on the image they're barely visible) with the a, g, and e in Nageishi you'll see that; the first and second letters have a single pixel from the background in the middle and on the left side respectively, just like how the highest point of the parabola in the letter a is in the middle and, in the e it's more on the left side since the right side of thw letter is fat, the third one is definitely a g as you can see by the barely visible line at the right side of the round part, and from that the other two make much more sense.

[@mountain_hills]

Makoto appears in DRDT real???!!

[@etherealcat69]

'[4] The practice of avoiding the number four; it is most common in East Asia. This superstition arises from the fact that the number four can be read similar to the word “death” in multiple languages.' If we look at our character list: David *Chiem* Hu *Jing* Min *Jeung* They all have last names with a Chinese and/or Cantonese background. Teruko *Tawaki* Arei *Nageishi* They all have last names with a Japanese background. However, Arei's last name is massively found in Brazil aswell. The rest of the cast have a last name with usually English roots aside from Nico who has a Armenian last name (West Asia). Looking from this, it shows that quite a bit of the cast have a hinted Eastern Asian background. I think it's also confirmed that Whit has an Asian parent but I can't confirm nor deny this. If we go back to the footnote, we can see it talks about a superstition found mainly in Eastern Asia and families that come from that area. This may lead us to believe that this specific note is on about the listed characters. ' [1] In this situation, it is better to use full names over nicknames. Exclude our protagonist-he is not “that person.” ' may imply that if my investigation is correct, it might be on about David Chiem or Teruko Tawaki. It could be on about David due to the use of 'he' and since he is the only male character with a confirmed east asian background to my knowledge that leaves him to be what it is on about. Aswell as the use of the phrase 'He is not "that person" ' . It could be on about how he acted in the last few episodes and he is also where usual protagonists go in danganronpa games. It could be on about Teruko instead because it mentions about 'our protagonist' which as we know that Teruko as of now is our protagonist I'm ranting on and on about something that probably isn't true lol edit: guys pls don't read this i was on a massive amount of weed when writing this edit 2: Whit is confirmed to have a Chinese dad ty revriee

"I just hope that ------ doesn't go crazy and kill in chapter 3. That would be way to predictable" - arturo or teruko fit "everyone in the comment section is a f/cking idiot" - polite much ok every other comment was "posted" 8 years ago, 4 years ago. but the last one was "posted" a second ago, could it be david telling us we're all wrong in these theories? or is he lying about that to? back to text sources "was absolutely taken with..." kyoto journal/lemon The word cross, the helping hints are just "that person".

Dandelions might stand for innocence? and there is a flower scene in the book, but idk. 5: 3:11, translation was botched, so they didn't translate it. 1: Hard to Catch 1:22, a cross word puzzle. idk what that means, but it shows up. 15: 1:48, mentions "ignorance is bliss" is part of the puzzle. 20: Hard to Catch 1:53, talks about the five stages of grief and how outdated it is. 17: 2:00, democratic-ly is not a real word. 12: Hard to Catch 2:02, Talks about a majority votes, where one person has all 16 votes. Voting Results: Everyone will be executed, There is no such thing as "victory" in a killing game. 9: 2:08, degraded copy means no respect for the classics. and apparently the less serious one :_: 16: 2:51, the music sheet comes from "Entry of the Gladiator - Julius Fucik" which was meant to be a military song, but now is a circus song.
