Anyway, since we now know that Another Episode takes place between the two core games, I guess I'll be the first one to bring up SDR2 spoilers here:

Spoiler for SDR2 Endgame:

Now that would be surprising and kinda screwed up, Junko and Naegi actually being siblings when they are opposites of one another.

There is also another theory that

I also feel that another good reason that AE could take place directly between both games is because:

I have made a theory in the other thread that the detention block may have broke the hatch (the one Naegi fell through), leaving Junko's corpse partially smashed. Or she might even have survived it.

Perhaps this story is just the other side of DR2. We only got to see what Naegi, Kirigiri, and Togami were up to since the end of DR1, so maybe this will cover what the other survivors like Sho have been up to since then.

I think it's just a common/stock pose by the artist. If I recall correctly, Oogami has done the same pose as well.

I was actually wondering if that'd be the case, and I think it'd be pretty cool.

I only recall Sakura having that pose as a sprite, and it wasn't really quite the same.. a sprite is kind of different from the nicer looking character art too. Sakura's character picture was her in a fighting pose, iirc.

Bumping since we've got a new interview with Kodaka (the series' writer) about this game. Admittedly, he doesn't reveal anything new, but at least he hints that there will be new characters appearing, which I'm really looking forward to!

smilewolfy · 2013-12-09, 20:38

yay, more plot for the series xD I dunno why, but at first i felt this game would mostly be missions and stuff, but not much story~ glad I was wronf ^_^

KitsyLove · 2013-12-19, 16:40

Totally looking forward to a new Danganronpa game. Even if it's a spin-off, I'm most likely going to enjoy it alot. Can't wait for more info. *w*

Kamuui · 2014-01-09, 03:02

I found another interview translated. It's very interesting and Kodaka clarifies some things.

blitz1/2 · 2014-03-10, 22:23

Still no news? T_T

marvelB · 2014-06-09, 05:36

Well, it's been several months, but we FINALLY have a new trailer for the game:

YouTube

https://youtu.be/S6bwq7LB5aQ

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

^Nice touch that the trailer starts with the first game's ending. And the end of the trailer gives us silhouettes of the rest of the cast (though the only person I can clearly discern is the one in the wheelchair....). Also, it looks like Fukawa's gameplay is basically Dangan Musou, lol.

Oh, and I must say that I looooove that trailer music!

Nvis · 2014-06-11, 01:22

Fukawa/Sho wearing heels now, too?

marvelB · 2014-06-26, 03:43

More info is here!

First and foremost is that we finally have a release date for the Japanese version: September 25! That's only a mere few months away! Dunno how long it'll be before we get news of a localization, though (if we DO get one, anyway). Next up, we're introduced to the kids we previously saw in silhouette form in the trailer I posted above, the "Monokuma Kids". Looks like they're basically the game's main bosses, and they all have RPG-type classes. Design-wise, the priest/monk kid is definitely my favorite. Most of the others basically look like clones of characters from the previous games (especially the pink-haired girl who basically looks like a cross between Junko and Kirigiri, lol

). That wheelchair girl creeps me out, though.....

marvelB · 2014-06-27, 11:24

Another trailer, this one clearly showing the Monokids mentioned above at the end. Also turns out that Komaru can control the Monobears through hacking:

Nvis · 2014-09-10, 20:03

I hope pink hair girl(with the pink devil horns) survives. She and Naegi's sister are my favorites.

hamazura · 2014-10-01, 02:53

someone doing a youtube walktrough jpn version
any translation?

Nvis · 2014-10-20, 18:22

I saw at least one person translating on youtube, finished chapter 1.

I'm scared of this!

Solitaired Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008	There is also another theory that Spoiler for SDR2: this game happens concurrently with SDR2, which involves Fukawa, Asahina, and Hagakure. Giving that they are absent in it. Though it does not make much sense as Kyoko told Togami that Fukawa is waiting for him.

marvelB Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2005	I also feel that another good reason that AE could take place directly between both games is because: Spoiler for SDR2 endgame: The story could explain how Komaeda was able to pull a Revolver Ocelot with Junko's hand despite her corpse having been squashed flat, lol.
