meet the cast ‼️ (4/16)

Rising and Photosynthesizing, Kaiten Hyaettori is the guy who’d try to sell you weed behind a convenience store while rambling about the difference between indica and sativa for forty minutes straight. He’s constantly high—or at least acts like it—always lounging around with dirt under his nails, half-lidded eyes, and the energy of someone who says “bro trust me” before every terrible idea. Kaiten treats plants less like science and more like a full-blown lifestyle obsession, getting weirdly excited over mold, fungi, and suspicious herbs nobody else wants to touch. Beneath all the goofy stoner nonsense though, he’s genuinely insanely knowledgeable about botany, cultivation, medicinal plants, and toxic flora—he just explains everything in the most unserious way possible.

Spending most of his time hidden behind screens, Ryojinishi Aruite specializes in slipping through digital systems people assume are impossible to breach.

His understanding of online anonymity, cybercrime, and surveillance makes him exceptionally dangerous in spaces where information equals power.

meet the cast ‼️ (1/16)

Always carrying at least one puppet nearby, Funuke Heisatsu’s performances tend to leave people more unsettled than amused. His ability to switch voices, personalities, and tones so naturally makes it hard to tell where the act actually ends. Combined with his theatrical timing and improvisation skills, his performances blur the line between comedy act and psychological trick.

feedback on the motives for my fangan 🙂‍↕️

chapter 1: the “hindsight debt” & the proxy rule

monokuma introduces the legacy profiles, digital records containing the most shameful, unedited secrets from the students’ lives before the memory wipe. each secret is assigned a sorrow value—a literal currency amount representing the cost of their “sins.” under the debt collection rule, if no murder occurs within 24 hours, monokuma begins extorting the family members of the students to pay off the debt, one life per hour.

chapter 2: the “symbiotic pulse” & the burden rule

the students are fitted with symbiotic pulse-collars that link their nervous systems to a secret designated “life partner.” this creates a twisted sensory inversion: if your partner feels pain, you feel it twice as hard; if their heart rate spikes from stress, you receive a debilitating electric shock. the only way to remove the link is for one partner to die, granting the survivor immunity. this is exacerbated by the dead-weight clause: if the pair with the lowest combined heart rate doesn’t commit a murder within 48 hours, they are both executed.

chapter 3: the “echo of insanity” & the isolation rule

monokuma implements the personal narrator motive, forcing students to wear earpieces that broadcast a 24/7 stream of their deepest insecurities, voiced by the person they trust most. this is paired with the vow of silence: if a student speaks to their “most important person,” both lose a vital sense—such as sight, sense, or hearing—for 24 hours. as the white noise protocol threatens to inflict permanent vertigo and deafness on the group.

chapter 4: the “weight of survival” & the martyr’s feast

the villa’s life-support systems are placed under the starvation calibration. monokuma reveals that the current total weight of the group exceeds the “life support capacity,” and the atmospheric purge will vent all oxygen unless the group’s total weight is reduced by exactly 70kg—the weight of an average person—within three days. they either all lose a significant amount of weight or kill.

chapter 5: the “identity dissolution” & the masquerade rule

in the final gambit, students are forced into scapegoat masks that surgically alter their appearance and voices to mimic another student. you look like your best friend but sound like your worst enemy, rendering trust impossible. the masquerade forever rule states that if no murder occurs, the masks will be permanently grafted to their faces, and their original identities and talents will be deleted from all world records—they will be forced to live and die as the person they hate.

the motives are intended to progressively strip away layers of humanity:

Chapter 1
Your past
Chapter 2
Your body
Chapter 3
Your perception
Chapter 4
Your morality
Chapter 5
Your identity
