Ice Cap Act 1
|
I thought I'd make a topic for this really awesome Anime/Game series that I happen to enjoy, Dangan Ronpa. It's really interesting and suspenseful, and rather humorous too in ways. You should check it out if you haven't. Well, here's what it is about, for those of you who haven't known, I'll tell you a little about the plot (but not too much). Dangan Ronpa starts with a bunch of kids getting accepted into this high school that has been said to be a really top quality high school, and one of the ones who is chosen is this boy named Makoto. However, shortly after arriving, they find that the High School is actually nothing like that, but far more worse. Turns out, that the High School is more of like a psycho-living quarters governed by a mysterious individual, and once you join, you are trapped inside and can not leave. The person who runs the school does not show herself, but rather "talks to them" using a black-and-white, remote-controlled, animatronic Bear that he calls "Monokuma." Through Monokuma, the "Headmaster" of this hellish prison that he calls a school, tells them that they shall be trapped forever unless one of them manages to "Graduate." The Headmaster then leaves about the school various things that the students can use to kill others with. In order to "graduate," one of the students must kill another student and not get caught. Whenever a student is found dead, they are all then taken into a trial, where they go to determine who is guilty of killing the student. If the culprit of the murder is proven guilty by the others, then he or she is "Sentenced to Death" by the HeadMaster, in one of many different, over-the-top, crazy and wacky and cartoonish Death Sentences. However, if the true murderer is not determined during the trial, then the one who killed the student is allowed to finally leave the school alive, while all the remaining others get killed by the headmaster. So after that, the "students" of the school now are faced with a massive challenge. They all must each find a means to kill their classmates without being revealed, and stay on the lookout for others who wish to do the same to them. They have become drawn into a vicious strive for survival. They soon become paranoid and insane, and one-by-one they start to fall. Soon, the students start to also try to look into the mysterious identity of the School Headmaster, and the reason behind his murderous games. So far, from what I've seen of it, I find Dangan Ronpa to be rather funny and crazy, but also very mysterious and suspenseful. Also, for some reason, the characters all have Pink Blood, which makes it even more silly. Believe it or not, It is just so hilarious! The most funniest and hilarious part of the series are the "Death Sentences" for the murderous students. These Executions for those who are proven guilty during the trials are ridiculously, but humorously over the top, with them being killed in some of the most silly and cartoonish and Lulzy ways that I've ever seen. I was literally laughing so hard at those Execution Scenes that it made my throat hurt afterwards. The executions are almost like something I'd see in Happy Tree Friends, or South Park's Killed Kenny, or Itchy and Scratchy from The Simpsons, or something else like that, which makes it not so gruesome and way more hilarious, if you know what I mean Like for instance, one "death sentence" involved Monokuma tying a boy onto the side of a Corny-Looking Rocket Ship and then launching him into space, then the rocket crash lands back down with the boy now being reduced to nothing but charred bones due to burning up in the atmosphere. Then there was a Death Sentence where one of the girls is getting tied up onto a pole and it looks like she is going to get burned, when suddenly Monokuma comes in, driving a huge Monster Truck, and crashes straight into her. Another "Death Sentence" involved this one "Student" who is really an advanced Computer AI who presents himself as an image of a boy's face on a Monitor Device, is put up on a stage for everyone to see, when suddenly MonoKuma drives a Backhoe onto the stage and repeatedly pulverizes the AI with the Backhoe. And there's plenty more ridiculous and goofy ways that the murderers are executed when they are found guilty. I haven't seen an anime/game series that makes me laugh this hard in a Long Time, and I will definitely watch the rest of it when I have the time to. Although sadly, it has no cuteness or cuddlyness or moe' and no actual Battles or Mechas or cool monstrous entities to fight though, which isn't very good and why it isn't on my favorites list now, but it's still notably decent. I am not sure if everyone would enjoy what Dangan Ronpa has to offer, it's not really for everyone, but the mystery and suspense might be enjoyable for some of you too. Watch the Anime or play the video game, and see what it is like. It's certainly a very "interesting" and unique anime, to say the least, and it made me laugh so much too!

Be sure to check me out on Deviant Art to see some of my various drawings and artworks. http://hexidextrous.deviantart.com/ Also, I would like to ask a favor from for anyone who is my friend here. If someday we meet in person in the near future, and I had recently done anything that would confirm that I had become a Brony (which as of now I am not one), such as if I had posted on a Pony-related fan-site, drawn a Pony-themed artwork, contributed to a Pony fanfic, or anything else along those lines. If I have done anything like that, I want you to punch me in the face without warning. This make sound like I'm joking, but I am absolutely serious about this. Ignore any future statements retracting this if I ever make any. Though if you do, please first confirm that it is me who is doing it, and not some Brony who is posing as me and wants to see me get punched. I do not wish to go down the path of the Bronies, and hopefully those of you reading this will help me so that it stays that way, if god forbid I ever even attempt it. Thank you. | |

"I didn't use the whole thing ...."

Must admit I was only made aware of this show after stumbling on the abridged series. Still, it is a really good show with an equally zany cast of characters. |

Ice Cap Act 1

It certainly is, especially the execution scenes. The video games are awesome too. My favorite characters have to be Chihiro (Super High-School Level Programmer), Alter-Ego (the A.I. version of himself that Chihiro created), and Nanami Chiaki (Super High-School Level Gamer).

Angel Island Act 1

I was made of aware of the game when the Something Awful LP came out. I played it myself and it's pretty awesome even though the final reveal was something I saw coming a mile away. It's definitely a character driven story despite how wacky it may be and it's worth checking out, but if you can I'd play the game rather than watch the anime which started to feel really rushed near the end. |
