Game Grumps - The Best of DANGANRONPA: CHAPTER 5

Ah yes, Chapter 5, better known as: Lets put the same 4 images and sentences over and over again: The Chapter.

[@WillKazeOh]

I've got the same thought, but I do believe they're gonna do the other ones, just not right away because they have Ruberross World to get through, and there's been enough complaining to warrant them going for more diversity for a while before attempting to complete another VN type game.

[@lyme5761]

>did you ever hear the tragedy mukara ikusaba, the sixteenth student? I thought not. It's not a story the ultimates would tell you. It's a despair legend. Mukara Ikusaba was the ultimate despair, so powerful and so wise she could use the despair to influence the Monokumas to give birth... She had such a knowledge of despair that she could even keep the ones she could care about from living. Despair is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. She became so powerfull..... the only thing she was afraid of was losing her power, which eventually, of course, she did. Unfortunately, she taught her sister everything he knew, then her sister killed her in the academy. Ironic. She could not only bring others close to death, but also herself.

[@3slicessenpai]

I have a sneaking suspicion that Arin has been (unwillingly) spoiled on the mastermind's identity. I mean, that particular character has a lot of fan art and I believe they own the Guiness World Record for most cosplayed character one year. Danganronpa really soared in popularity once the Vita version, with the official translation, came out, so you had a tight window to watch or play the first game without being absolutely spoiled by internet culture (kinda like how everyone knows Darth Vader is Luke's father). I think that's what happened to Arin and that's why he seems so...un-intused about the twists because it was all spoiled for him... (And I know how that feels because I was spoiled on the identity of all the V3 killers from a spoiler post that slipped by the spoiler-free Danganronpa fan page I followed on social media. And that really sours the whole experience)

[@raimarulightning]

Almost certainly following a walkthrough. You can even hear him talk about how things are supposed to go.

[@lukesoddlife]

Yeahhh Dan is oblivious I think, but I know that Arin must know quite a few major points but doesn't want to dampen the fun for Dan...

The bad ending isn't really an ending, the game continues like "why did I just imagine all that lol" if you go for it. It happens at the end of this chapter (it's an execution) and they skipped it.

[@assasinfromheaven92]

They are getting the good ending. Like the previous post said the "bad ending" is a weird imagine spot Makoto has mid-trial. Kyoko is accused of murdering Mukuro and is sent through the same execution Makoto goes through only she actually gets killed, then the remaining students settle down and spend the rest of their lives locked away in the school, Aoi has Hiro's and Makoto's kids, Byakuya has a kid too but its not clear with who since in the picture they are holding Toko's funeral picture stand in making it unclear if she survives.

[@Donttrustthatburger5144]

There were 15 people but 16 students because the 15th student was technically 2 people. The answer to the killing game is simple- you kill everyone. The despair answer is to kill yourself. Someone will be blamed for the murder, and since they weren't the true blackened, everyone would die. A literal version of "when you kill everyone you kill yourself". The True Despair answer is: you gain their trust, or else before they can stop you, you kill everyone else. Don't think about it, don't do it. The Ultimate Soldier. The problem was the Ultimate Soldier genuinely loved Makoto- even if it was just a crush. She couldn't stop looking at him. She couldn't kill him. If there is someone there you couldn't kill, doesn't that throw a kink into everything about the plan? Only a truly heartless person could kill everyone, even someone they loved (their sister, in this case). Which is why this whole game is so interesting to me. I know the answer. I could win the game- but there are people on this earth I wouldn't kill to save myself- and shouldn't that mean I shouldn't kill anyone? If everyone thought that way, maybe there wouldn't be killing. Just finding ways to relate to, control them, or let them destroy themselves. We should bring back gladiator games (this is a bad idea) (this promotes slavery)(lol I would totally die first) Maybe I'll be the replies, idk Tl;dr I'm probably watched by the FBI (hey thank you, you're doing a good job.
