Spoiler for Chapter 5:

Personally, I think the bad ending and the Kirigiri's punishment is kind of like a meta rather than taking in place in Naegi's mind. It's supposed to tell the players to trust Kirigiri, even if it endangers Naegi's life in the exchange since this is case really the perperator's (Monokuma's) set up just to frame someone.

Of course, the writer might just want to show the CERO-D implication of the bad ending.

There might be an explanation somewhere in either the fanbook or the exclusive interviews with the writer, but I hath not the visual fanbook nor have the incentive to search for the interviews Maybe once I got to replay DR1...

On another note, official Spoiler Talk Session for SDR2 today!(4gamers report, Famitsu report Some spoiler-ish images warning!). Many despair were created when this spoiler talk show attendance is pretty much decided by random lottery :heh"

Obvious most popular two is obvious, of course

What shocks me is how Komaeda actually can get a first place if it is only a one-person-vote And how he actually surpass Gundam in the male voters division, I absolutely have no idea wwwwww

And lo, Kodaka admitted that he didn't think Komaeda will be this popular when he wrote the script, and totally jabs at Ogata's performance being the big booster for his current popularity lol

FYI, my ballot is Komaeda > Nanamin > Gundam. I kinda regret putting Gundam as my third since Hinata is in 5th now, as opposed to original series' Naegi in the 3rd but ah well!

>> The comic serialization's image samples are out, Dangan Koubai blog has the sample images. Just like its predecessor, the main manga is in Comic Clear (Famitsu's manga division iirc). This time though, we have 3 other types of manga from Mag-Garden (already tweeted yesterday, actually) as well. One has Nanami as the PoV character, one has Komaeda as the PoV character and one takes place in Island-verse.

>> GOODSMILE IS MAKING DANGANRONPA FIGURE (Nendroid to be precise). I have a feeling it is Monokuma, though hoho...

I'd scour the net for some spoilerish info, but then I realized that waiting for the official fanbook is easier than flipping through 2ch and twitters for scarce infos so... I'd rather wait for Halloween~

Hopefully, it's okay to talk about this here, lol, I swear making another thread for SDR2 is troublesome... ;;
