Chapter 1-5 thoughts from a first time player
>!If you've seen at least one of my posts about my playthrough, you would probably know one thing about me, and my favorite character. i really like akane. shes my favorite character. you may also have seen another thing i was talking about in some of my more recent posts. i think yuki, or yamato is the mastermind. i also suspected kurokawa to be at foul play with the group. although now, i dont know what to suspect, who to suspect, where to suspect. everything i belived has just been blown out of the water. now, yamato is dead, and kurokawa is dead. and my first thought was "well yeah, that makes sense if one of them is the mastermind, and monokuma is silencing them for some reason. i cant figure out why, but either of them could be the mastermind" that was... not the case. it was far from the case. it was quite possable, the furthest i couldve gotten from what was going to happen this trial. i am so so glad i waited until today to play it. so that i would be able to expirience this fully awake. and now, sitting here, writing this i feel such a large, terrible weight on my shoulders, now knowing, that my favorite character, the character i clung to like a safetly blanket, who i held onto with hte only hope of them surviving and making it out, is going to die. akane is going to die. akane is the mastermind. akane must die. she cannot live, she cannot survive, she isnt allowed to. masterminds die. thats it. thats just what happens. and a part of me holds out hope, which is always followed up by the crushing weight of reality. "maybe she'll get a redemption arc" (it wont happen) "maybe she'll escape" (she wont) "maybe she'll stay in the school" (shes going to be executed) i mean, in terms of other things about the chapter, i did like yamato. i thought he was cool. i wish i couldve seen him in a trial. kurokawa did not kill him, so im guessing that chapter 6 will be something like a re-trial, or... man i dont even know what chapter 6 will be about. we know the mastermind. we know everything. or so i belive. clearly theres more to know, as were not done. but, until then, i have to sit here with this lump in my throat, watching as im now forced to condem akane to death. because be real, yuki will cook her ass in a trial and she'll die. just like we always see. shes going to die. and until i come to terms with that, i dont know what im going to do. do i even care about thsi seperate version of akane? theyre clearly two different people... i fell in love with the non despair akane... so should i learn to hate the despair akane? did the akane i get to know even exist? is she dead forever? is there even a sliver of a chance she ever returns? probably not. but, thats that. theres nothing to do now, but wait until chapter 6, where everything pans out, and it ends.!<
it all ends.
(anyway heres my thoughts about the daily life, like copy and pasted from a post i made yesterday, but with less headache wining.)
i will say, i loved Yamato. i had so many theories that ill discuss tommorow, and i even maxed out his friendship points he has a crazy good ability, and im glad i did that. in other news, mikako is obviously not the culprit. its tsurugi no doubt. he went to the arsenal, stole the grenades, plus the announcement revealed that mikako was not the murderer because of the 3 person rule excluding the killer. plus her knife was CLEEAAAN. anyway, ill drop some pictures, and see you all tomorrow when i actually play the trial and watch LINUJ say "fuck you your theories are wrong" and execute akane or something like that. but yeah ill discuss my theories for the mastermind, and my overall thoughts more tomorrow. oh also im now the number 1 yuki hater because he was mean to mikako and i really hope he's the mastermind so he will die and never come back and i hope we get a protagonist switch or something so i dont have to play as slime that yells at innocent girls who CLEARLY cant talk about stuff because they physically cant. but god i feel like everyone iq dropped like 25 points these last couple of chapter purely for the plot, and doesnt make sense for what we've seen from the characters. ESPECIALLY REI. like for most of the investigation she was all "wow mikako i cant belive you" DID YOU HIT YOUR HEAD REI YOUR BETTER THAN THIS. anyway, see ya'll tommorow... (remember thats from yesterday) and adding onto it, i still do feel like everyone in the cast just does feel a bit less... themselves. it feels like theyve changed who we've seen them to be simply for the writing. it felt wrong to look at teruya with haru's glasses, a pure representation of his chaarcter growth, just follow the pack during the trial and get mad at whoevers most suspicous. and rei, i mean shes fine but she just doesnt feel as smart. and akane... im not even sure. ill ignore her for now. mikako obviously would be different... and then theres yuki. mr black sheep. he's a dick now. i dont know why, and boy do i care. because theres a reason. it wouldnt be shoved in our face, bid old red text if there wasnt. but he isnt the mastermind, so maybe he's just... a dick. he was just a dick the whole time, and is only getting his memories and personality back. i also guess this means that yuki and akane didnt date, and werent a power couple at hopes peak. oh well... what can you do. and honestly, im not even going to drop a prediction sheet of the survivors. whats the point. i cant tell wtf's about to happen. anyway, what do you guys think? am i just over reacting?
