#because: celestia ludenberg. that's why

[livingdeadhorse]

idk what this is. i like robots. i’ll clean these up later. i think.

anyways while drawing these I started thinking abt like. idk does this count as an AU.

General shit:

I didn't make it clear, but the robots that have pupils were built without a hardcoded purpose. They've always been free to explore what they want to do. The robots with fully colored "scleras" were created with a purpose from the jump, so their creators didn't feel the need to make them appear more "human".

The more expensive a robot's parts are, the less clunky it is.

Right now, I'm going with "their human family built them" but that's liable to change.

The designs are also liable to change because uh. duh.

Celestia Ludenberg:

Viewed the robots with an imbued purpose as interesting and superior (something something humanity's advancement). She wants to be praised like that, so she emulates them

Her cat loves how much heat she radiates so it's always near her.

Most of her upgrades are cosmetic but if they aren't, they're stupid. She won't upgrade her CPU or her motherboard, but she'll load up with three 4090s that her other components can't even keep up with. Yes, she does it to flex.

She'll distract from bootleg, refurbished, or shoddily painted parts by turning on her RGB. It gets annoying.

She knows that she's fairly unsettling and she revels in it.

All things considered, her cable management is pretty good.

Her gambling skill is still just luck here, but she tells everyone it's because she has a never-seen-before GPU(& CPU) that does calculations at insane speeds.

Most don't believe her but have no way to disprove her lie.

Kiyotaka Ishimaru

I can't decide if he was built by his father or his grandfather.

Either way, he was built before Toranosuke's downfall, so his internals were all pretty expensive for the time. Luckily for him, that means he was slightly future-proof and has a viable upgrade path.

Unluckily for him, this means he's stuck with really old parts and his 8gb of RAM can barely keep up in a 32gb world sadge

His chassis is built from secondhand or scrap parts. It's why his joints are so ancient in comparison to the rest of him and why he has so much cabling that he can't seem to manage.

Shit chassis = shit airflow = he is always overheating

BUDDY IS YOUR CPU BURNING HOW IS THERE SMOKE

Older tech = LOUD AF. The class bought him new fans to avoid the loud ass whirring. It's not quiet but he used to sound like a jet engine.

He runs on Debian. It was originally going to be Arch since it's lightweight but Debian's whole "old but stable" reputation fits him more. I don't see him properly dealing with bleeding edge software anyways.

His room is filled with past HDDs that no longer have storage. He deems all educational material important so he refuses to delete any lessons. He doesn't have the money for SSDs.

Mukuro Ikusaba:

Is usually in reconnaissance mode, meaning she has a shit ton of hidden cameras in her chassis

This used to benefit Fenrir. Now it benefits Junko.

She can have her parts shifted around with no issue to make room for a better arsenal.

She’s durable in her reconnaissance mode but she’s nigh on untouchable in her combat mode. Her chassis gets 10x bulkier and she can split her attention to several different tasks on the battlefield.

Fenrir Mercenary Group doubles as a weapons company. Mukuro is the only model of her kind though.

They tried to give her reconnaissance model the look of a “normal girl” so she could gather info more efficiently. They failed real bad. They also didn’t account for the fact that Mukuro isn’t good at socializing.

She allocates a CPU core to a process dedicated to Junko. 24/7 365

She believes herself to be less capable of emotion than she actually is. She can’t seem to find the system process that triggers such painful emotions.

Chihiro Fujisaki

Each “fold” in her skirt doubles as a screen. Think of the skirt as having two layers: the top shell and the under shell. The top shell is what doubles as a screen.

Optimized her hardware to work on code as fast as possible (fingers, skirt, etc).

She tends to test out new software on herself regardless of their compatibility with her pre-existing shit. She constantly has to reinstall her OS, but it’s all fun for her.

Speaking of her OS, I was going to make her run on Gentoo but IDK cause of the compile times. It’d be faster if she used distcc but I can’t see her screwing over her classmates like that lol.

So I’m between Nix and Arch.

Insecure about the fact that she overhauled her original model so extensively. Got made fun of for being a ‘defective’ robot. Her father supports her modifications but she still feels bad about having ‘failed’ somehow.

Cue identity issues

She helps out her classmates when it comes to repairs.

Tendency to stay up programming leads to high uptimes. If her friends notice her lagging or crashing, they’ll try to get her to shut down. (In a computer sense lol, not an emotional shut down)

Do y’all remember the xz utils backdoor? Yeah that’s how extensively she combs through code.

Sayaka Maizono

I can’t decide if she was built to be an idol or was originally some other type of robot.

Loves to make kids smile, so she has a sort of candy mechanism in her arm.

Everything about her glows or spins. You will never get bored looking at her.

Her skirt isn’t actually see through I just didn’t feel like erasing the hip joints lmao.

If corpos give her manager enough money, she has to perform with literal ads on her.

State-of-the art facial recognition software. It makes her fans feel special to have their names remembered.

She has a regular sleep cycle due to how load-intensive her everyday life is. Has to shut down for a couple hours every week at least.

Her psychic ability is just her running a million calculations based on people’s behavior and sensing which one is most plausible. This feature is in place to avoid PR disasters during interviews or public appearances.

There really aren’t enough worker’s rights regulations in place for robots.

The company gets alerts whenever she freaks tf out, so she feels even more stifled and repressed. Chihiro helped remove this.

Kyoko Kirigiri

Can’t decide if she was built by her father or grandfather. Probably just built by Jin and he “left” her in Fuhito’s care.

Fuhito made her go through several modifications, hardcoding his own investigative skills into her system.

Her grandfather loves her but has fucked up ideas about her own autonomy.

The events of DR:K still happen. She chose not to replace her hands.

Fuhito doesn’t make much use of a backdoor in her system anymore. He used it a lot more when she was a child but he sees her as a viable heir of the Kirigiri clan now. Chihiro isolated the backdoor to a separate SSD anyhow.

Still complicated father-daughter issues

Everything about her (but her OS) is proprietary, probably commissioned from Towa Industries. Her OS is a fork of Mint. The Windows 7 UI is just because I imagine her grandfather is One of Those lmao.

Has way too many scanners and sensors. She can’t test any evidence herself but she can gather a fair bit of information. Has a vast database for cross-comparison anyways.

Same issues as Togami and Mukuro: sees herself as less capable of emotion than she actually is.

The ramen noodle incident called for actual repairs.

Byakuya Togami

His superiority complex is far worse because he was literally CREATED to be the perfect Togami. You can’t tell him shiiiiiiit.

Gold joints. Scoffs at those with unoptimized cable management or software.

He’s constantly streamlining his own processes. Brings up that he runs on his own OS when Nobody Asked.

Had a similar backdoor to Kyoko’s but Koji did check that one. Obsessively. Nobody would tell Byakuya but He Just Knew. The lack of privacy irritated him. Aloysius helped fix it once Togami finally took over.

Only trusts Aloysius with his repairs. Has a hard time admitting when he needs repairs in the first place so Aloysius hides it under “monthly maintenance”.

Does everything from the terminal even when he 1) shouldn’t and 2) can’t. Bragging rights. He has written a bunch of his own scripts though to speed things up.

Kernel and OS provided to him by Koji. (UNIX-based. Proprietary) Byakuya maintains and builds his own updates. Doesn’t trust cheapskate peasants to do it for him.

Anti-FOSS. For him at least.

Has glasses for the aesthetics. Doesn’t need them.

[mmani-e]

Hello! After all this effort, behold:

DANGANRONPA DEMIX, THH EDITION!

Dr Demix 2

Finally got the talentswap designs I have for the THH characters one and done with! You can click through the read more section for some fun design insights. I'm intending on uploading a doc containing short lore bits about them eventually.

Kyoko Kirigiri - Ultimate Affluent Progeny

So Kyoko's design was both kinda simple, kinda not, wanted to give her a very fine and regal kinda attitude to her but not arrogant as that's very much Byakuya's thing. Her story is that she loves her dad more than the family business and her grandpa so she abandons detective work and just uses her brain to help her dad out.

Makoto Naegi - Ultimate Novelist

Makoto is a wonderful guy, just great all around. He loves writing children's books and happy stories. This is his main coping mechanism so he doesn't have to process any negative emotions he gets, the rest he can't process… well they go into a murderous psychopath alter.

Aoi Asahina - Ultimate Lucky Student

Shoujo protagonist Aoi. Cute, headstrong, affective, competitive, these are all the traits that make her fight for her friends and clash with Kyoko (and more often than not Byakuya) in the killing game, even when all hope seems lost… she pushes through, unafraid to let tears spill from her eyes for all those lost, but pushing all the same.

Byakuya Togami - Ultimate Detective

This one, I wanna go into more lore territory, cause I kinda memed around his last desc I gave him so here goes:

"A disgraced heir of the Togami household, Byakuya lost the competition that would've secured his riches. Disdainful and bitter, he sought out to get to the bottom of why he lost, uncovering a rabbit hole in the process. By the end, he proved his sibling a cheater, but it didn't matter because by the end as he found the sweet satisfaction of uncovering secrets and crushing liars and cheaters under the weight of their hubris far more satisfying than any inheritance."

Sayaka Maizono - Ultimate Spirit Medium

So Sayaka isn't a clairvoyant at all like Yasuhiro, in fact her entire skillset is completely different, first of all she is like an actual psychic, and I based her design off of the japanese Itako, quite loosely. Very interesting group, look it up, also she'll never use these powers in the killing game because I dunno how to even approach these rituals or what they look like or how to write them while remaining respectful, so she won't do it in a killing game for the express reason of her not having the right tools available and not wanting to disrespect her traditions.

Leon Kuwata - Ultimate Swimmer

I really wanna draw him again, all these characters again tbh, and I wanna show off the patterns on his wetsuit. It's a whole coral reef under there, that anemone and clownfish bit is only one part of a whole reef stretching his midline.

Sakura Ogami - Ultimate Programmer

Sakura has installed chips into her body to help optimize her body processes and also cause why not. As for the muscles, she's an Assembly programmer, the programs she's made can run on calculators she loves it.

Chihiro Fujisaki - Ultimate Martial Artist

Chihiro's design here with the two belts is an explicit nod to his preferred martial art - Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, so unlike Sakura in canon who'd be easy to imagine cracking someone's skull in half with a chop, Chihiro's approach is more crawling onto someone and bringing them down to the floor with grappling like an angry halfling monk. As for the belts themselves, on his head is his final junior belt, while around his waist is his current belt, he's not a black belt yet because he's still too young for it.

Celestia Ludenberg - Ultimate Baseball Star

Celestia actually isn't a legend in this AU, Taeko is. Celestia hates that and wants to start a baseball career going international, whatever the hell that means is up to her own definition, but she wants to be remembered forever as Celestia, not Taeko. Also extra sentence, but this is the SINGLE hardest design I've ever had to deal with here, I think in the future I'll be drawing all her little accessories and I have an alt costume for her I have in mind.

Hifumi Yamada - Ultimate Pop Star

So I changed Hifumi's story as I originally outlined in the OG post with him. He was friends with Aoi all his life, pretty much his only friend at all, and ever since he was little he had an obsession with writing songs, because he was obsessed with stuff like anime openings and was content to just keep the songs to himself. It wasn't till Aoi convinced him to share some of his songs that he started his journey to success, but bc he's not traditionally attractive, his first hits were literally just… his voice being played over other more attractive singers and it wasn't until very very recently that he even performed a song of his for the first time.

Toko Fukawa - Ultimate Fanfic Writer

So while Hifumi was clearly a Doujinshi but due to weird translation, ended up as fanfic creator, Touko is straight up a FF then Wattpad then AO3 girl, who would get obsessed with this really shitty, tripe manga that she didn't even like reading. It did however have super hot dudes in it, so she wrote good stories of those characters when she got frustrated with the actual authorial content - which was always.

Yasuhiro Hagakure - Ultimate Gambler

Quite LITERALLY the never stop gambling meme personified into a guy. He can lose 3 mil on slot machines but always comes out fine because it means if he keeps gambling he'll eventually run into his 1/3 and win giga millions, what he needs to pay off his debts. It isn't just with luck though either because his personality and lack of intelligence or understanding of most the rules of the games he plays means he'll never react the way he should when getting a good hand in poker or a bad draw in blackjack, so he wins those games almost always through just… stupidity.

Mukuro Ikusaba - Ultimate Biker

She's number 16 in her gang, and is easily the most loyal enforcer and taskman of the gang. She does anything she's told, to a grim and disciplined degree not typical for hooligan bike gangers, she doesn't really desire a seat as top dog of the gang though, after all she's got school to worry about, and her sister.

Mondo Owada - Ultimate Warlord

So his relationship and Kiyotaka's is gonna be interesting, because I don't want him to be exactly like Mukuro at all, who was just sort of an all-obsessed Yandere. It's more like he's always chafing under Taka, who is less than friendly with him in this AU, really the main way he even lets Taka boss him around is because he pays incredibly well and helps keep his gang members from devolving back into the unstructured, chaotic criminal life, the same that took his brother years ago.

Oh and yeah, he still looks like Guile, as he should.

Sparkling Justice - Ultimate Killer Killer

Yeah it's a reference to Killer Killer, sue me I love the manga. He has Hajirahara's ahoge, and I thought it'd be cute to also give him a mask just like the other Makoto from a Kodaka game series (Raincode.) Also, while Genocide jack stuffs all her scissors in her skirt, Makoto keeps a truth gun with "truth bullets" as his main weapon, the gun he stores inside the big book in the chibi of just Makoto, and the bullets kept on his person as the red buttons all over his body, which he pulls out when he needs to reload.

"Kiyotaka Ishimaru" - Ultimate Fashionista

Unlike Mukuro and Junko, Mondo absolutely cannot hide the fact that he acts nothing like Kiyotaka, though this is surprisingly fine to everyone else, because unlike Junko who plastered herself onto literally everything, Mondo always obfuscated himself from the public spotlight, at most showing only his suits while he hid his face behind something conveniently placed. Which played primarily to his vision of an ultimate fashionista, who was above everyone and catered to the rich and powerful.

Junko Enoshima - Ultimate Moral Compass

This was a fun one, I decided to let her have her red hair because I believe it to be the "natural" look of her hair, while attaching little clips of dyed hair to her buns as a replacement to keep her shape sorta and keep the strawberry blonde somwehere on her. Understand that while she is the "moral compass" she is still pretty deranged, and the only reason she focuses so much on keeping everyone on their best behavior is because it's endlessly entertaining to her to make her fellow moral committee members upset when she blatantly makes a mockery of the rules while still keeping kids on their best behavior to make a point.

Kiyotaka Ishimaru - Ultimate Fashionista and Tyrant, the Iron Hand of Despair

Taka's design I wanted to sort of focus on this sort of, holier-than-thou idea, where I wanted to make him look a lot fancier and upper-class than Junko does in his standard highschool fit compared to him. I wanted him to have an upper-crust sort of look

If you're reading this after reading this all, thanks! You're a wonderful person :) Signing off...

Celeste AND Junko 1000%

for data collection purposes

Sayaka's analysis is already being worked on, hence why she's not here

[dreamzghostz]

TELL ME ABOUT THE TALENTSWAP AU NOW!!!

OKAY, I'M SO GLAD SOMEONE FINALLY ASKED ME ABOUT THIS.

So, this Talentswap AU, it's like the average killing game

*Oh no, Celestia (the protag) got kidnapped and forced in a killing game with 15 other students. She finds Kiyo (the support), and they have to escape, waaaah*

To be honest, what inspired me to make this are Danganronpa V3 (I like how they have features like Scrum Debates, Argument Aranments, and Mass Panic Debates), and the Danganronpa: Another series

So, yeah, everyone's talents are swapped. If you click on the "Danganronpa: A Dice of Despair" tag, you can see everyone's designs and talents. So, what I mainly want to talk about are the characters, their talents, and their personalities, backstories, etc.

There will be a LOT of yapping below, so keep reading if you wanna

‼️‼️TRIGGER WARNING FOR MAJOR SPOILERS IN DANGANRONPA, DARK IMPLICATIONS, AND PERSONAL/SENSITIVE TOPICS‼️‼️

Celestia Ludenberg - Ultimate Lucky Student: So, in this AU, Celestia is the protagonist. She has a mix of her and Makoto's personalities. She can be cold and a douche at times, but she does care about everyone. Here, she has a mix of good luck and bad luck, but they both work at the same time... Somehow? Her real name is still Taeko Yasuhiro, and she made up her fake name to hide who she really is since her family has very dark secrets that could easily crumple her reputation if spilled. Hence why she also doesn't believe that she's really the Ultimate Lucky Student.

Korekiyo Shinguji - Ultimate Swordsman: Here, Kiyo is the support/deuteragonist. Celestia runs into him after escaping into the gym. In this AU, he's aloof, smart, but also starts showing kindness after a while. In Chapter One, he's the one to snap Celestia back to reality after she has her initial panic. He can come off as a bit hostile, but that's because growing up, he didn't have many friends as he spent most of his time training since his family are mostly famous warriors.

Sayaka Maizono - Ultimate Gambler: In this AU, she's more of an anti-hero then an antagonist. She's pretty rude and demanding, and she uses Kiibo to her advantage since he's the Ultimate Butler, and growing up, she had many butlers and maids to her aid whenever she needed them. Eventually, in Chapter Two, Sayaka starts to see that Celestia isn't a bad person, and starts to open up to her. Sayaka's cruel and sadistic personality stems from her childhood where her mother was killed by being burned, and her father basically abandoned her, so Celestia's really the only person she likes. Also, she ALWAYS wins every gambling match (Always? ALWAYS.) As well, she's a bit narcissistic, and thinks she's above everyone.

Byakuya Togami - Ultimate Gamer: Here, Byakuya is more of like an AI (like Chiaki), because his father wanted an heir, and none of his kids were "fit for it". So, Mr. Togami got a friend to create Byakuya. Though, Byakuya was never interested in the Togami Corporation, and took an interest in video games instead. He's a bit insensitive, but does mean well. He doesn't express much emotion, but is protective of the people he cares about, and he has a deep sense of justice. He knows his father doesn't love him, but as long as he has video games, he'll be happy.

Chiaki Nanami - Ultimate Pop Sensation: In this AU, Chiaki is a human. She's a lot more energetic then her game counterpart, and is like who she was in Danganronpa 3. Ever since she was a little girl, Chiaki had dreamed of being a famous star, despite her parents' wishes. She loves to write songs and sing with her group, even though after Chiaki gets trapped in the killing game, her girl group gets killed by the Ultimate Despair, which sends Chiaki into despair, though she masks it well. She'll write a song for everyone in the place, and she'll sing it as loud as she can. She's a great friend to have, like a golden retriever!

Gundham Tanaka - Ultimate Traditional Dancer: So, growing up, Gundham's home life was pretty bad. His family was VERY strict on what he ate, what he wore, and what he said. His house was near a street, and every afternoon, he would sneak there and feed all the tabby cats, making him gain their trust, and making him feel a sense of comfort. He's kind of an asshole in the AU, since he had a bad home life, and it left a huge mark on how he viewed people. Unfortunately, he doesn't want to warm up to anyone, as he's secretly scared they'll just use him, so he closes himself off, and he only trusts the tabby cats.

Hajime Hinata - Ultimate Inventor: Hajime's mother was rarely in the picture, causing him to develop a very close relationship with his father. When his father got ill and passed when Hajime was ten, he found all his father's unfinished inventions. Determined to finish them, Hajime worked for hours, nights even, to make his father proud. Hajime gets his vulgarity and bluntness from the highschool he was at before Hope's Peak Academy, since the crude and rudeness was basically the norm at where he was. Also, yes, Hajime is Izuru in this AU, though I'm still trying to figure out how to write that.

Mahiru Koizumi - Ultimate Astronaut: She's the Antagonist of the AU, so I probably should have placed her up way higher, but I'm too tired to change it. So, Mahiru's mother was an astronaut, and Mahiru has always been intrigued by space. In the village she lived at, she would tell the younger kids stories about space and amazing astronauts, forming a close bond with them. Unfortunately, a few months before Hope's Peak, Mahiru's village was burned down, leaving Mahiru homeless. When she saw the advertisement for Hope's Peak, she took it in a heartbeat. She's kind, a little naive, and protective to make sure she can keep everyone as safe as she can.

Mikan Tsumiki - Ultimate Pianist: School was a very tough time for Mikan, as she was always the targeting of bullying, though she felt safe in her music class. After a very traumatic event, Mikan basically clung to her piano, playing it every day, as many times as she could. She's shy, but also very determined and kind, and she's quite skilled at the other instruments other then piano! Which she personally finds to be very cool!

Nagito Komaeda - Ultimate Anthropologist: Nagito's house was very close to a library, so every day, after school, he would stop by the library and find a book. The ones about culture and evolution were the ones that intrigued him the most. He spent most of his childhood in the hospital, so the library was like a safe space for him. He's also aloof, but somewhat disturbing and also mature. He has to keep a close eye on Hajime, so he's basically Hajime's babysitter (lol).

Sonia Nevermind - Ultimate Detective: Sonia was always very smart, even as a young child, so she didn't have very many friends as she got frustrated by people who weren't as smart. One day, the detectives brought her in to see if she could help them with a case, and she solved it, pretty quickly. She can solve cases quicker then the average detective can. She's pretty quiet most of the time, but she also has a strong sense of justice, is no-nonsense and quick, and she really doesn't have as much empathy as she probably should.

Kaede Akamatsu - Ultimate Princess: So, Kaede is the princess of Japan, so she also has to follow strict and unfair rules. She often but heads with her parents since she wants to actually be her own person and not follow their rules. Her parents had arranged a marriage for her, and when she found out about this, she quickly signed up for Hope's Peak to escape this. She's kind, charming, curious, and always willing to learn. She may not give the best advice, but she tries her best!

Shuichi Saihara - Ultimate Artist: Shuichi here seems like your average Joe. He doesn't really talk highly of himself, and he just does art as a hobby, so he wasn't really expecting it to become his actual talent, lol. Despite all of this, he's fairly nice and pretty chill, but can also be pretty morbid due to the fact he was born and raised in an unusual church. No, he isn't religious. Also, he loves art, but he doesn't draw eyes when he draws people, as he finds it difficult to do (this will come in handy later).

Kirumi Tojo - Ultimate Magician: Growing up, Kirumi always loved magic. She was a street magician for a while before being allowed to enter a school that allowed her to embrace her interests. She's kind, energetic, and kooky since she had been seen as a "weird kid" by most people growing up. Despite this, she's incredibly loyal to those around her, and she can be scarily serious when she needs to.

Kiibo (Idabashi) - Ultimate Butler: So, in this AU, Kiibo is also human, so I will refer to him as Kiibo Idabashi. He always loved helping people, despite what they asked him to do. His father, Professor Idabashi, spent a lot of time on robotic engineers, so that led Kiibo to wander off... a LOT. He always enjoys to serve people, and he enjoys Celestia's company. He doesn't like Sayaka much though, as she uses him. There are also times where he feels empty, like a robot. Though, he's hardworking, devoted, and can take on even the hardest of tasks.

Rantaro Amami - Ultimate Photographer: Rantaro still has twelve sisters in this AU, and they always loved for him to take pictures of them, to where they would even ask him daily to take pictures of scenery they liked and outfits they liked. Rantaro found himself enjoying photography, even in the darkest of times. At first, he's bossy and a bit stubborn, but he eventually learns to trust his classmates and even befriends most of them. After that, he's kind, still a little stubborn and bossy, but more willing to hear others out. Also, him and Korekiyo become quite close very quickly!

I'm SO sorry that I talked more about the characters and their backstories then their roles!! I'll make a relationship chart of them in a post eventually. Also, this took a long while and isn't my usual content, so my bad! Also, if you read all of this, thank you 💕

Ten Under-Recognized Jirai Kei Characters!

Ive been meaning to make a post on some jirai kei characters that i think are underappreciated by the overseas landmine community! Mostly i think its bc they don't wear girly kei, cybercore, or other fashions associated with us on SNS, and bc their media came out before 2020. So ive compiled a list and an explanation for why i think they're jirai! I have another list for pien kei characters who arent jirai in my opinion too. If u have any characters u think the western jirai comm sleeps on, comment/reblog and tell me who & why!

1. Celestia Ludenberg

Celestia (Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc) has screamed landmine to me for like, ever! She's wrapped up in her appearance and at first glance makes the effort to come off as regal and formal. But she frequently lets that disguise slip and shows her sadistic side at the slightest inconvenience, threatening violence and screaming in peoples faces. She's got both a superiority complex AND inferiority complex, and has an unhealthy obsession with gambling, her super high school level talent.

2. Nijimin Anazawa

Nijimin (Mahou Shoujo Site) is super popular in the japanese jirai comm, and its easy to see why. She's easily lovestruck and a borderline yandere (dependent type), murderous and hellbent on revenge, and her magical power literally revolves around manipulating others. She's a beloved idol and a symbol of cuteness, but she's a murderous magical girl? How much more jirai can you get!

3. Mayoi Ayase

Mayoi (Ensemble Stars) is a very interesting character! From his obsession with the occult to his self depreciating behavior to his obsessive and stalkerish tendencies, he's an overall offputting yet charming guy. As an idol, he has fans who have a totally different image of him than the creep (affectionate) he can be at times behind the scenes. Also, not to stereotype, but his favorite sanrio character is kuromi, whos super popular within jirai.

4. Yuri

Yuri (Dokidoki Literature Club) being a landmine seems a little self-explanatory to me. She's a yandere character who's probably the most unassuming of the cast at first. She's shy, smart, kind... and a self-harming yandere with a knife fetish who will literally kill herself if you get involved romantically or reject her.

5. Yoosung

Wow, when's the last time I thought about Mystic Messanger? No idea, but Yoosung feels pretty jirai kei to me in retrospect. In the beginning of the game, hes the adorkable self-conscious junior with an unhealthy online addiction. But, by the end, he's a self-harming yandere who refuses to let the player character go, and is willing to do whatever it takes to secure a happily ever after.

6. Kusokawa-chan

While I have an immeasurable hatred for her creator, Kusokawa-chan (Menhera-chan spin-off 4komas) is a comfort character of mine... for some reason. With a name that means "kawaii trash", her personality is probably predictable. She's human trash, a sadistic asshole with no respect for others who will insult and berate you at the drop of a hat, and turn on a dime on her fans. She tries to cover it up by putting on an exaggerated innocent act and kawaii-fying herself and her life, but she just cant stop herself from exploding on others with no remorse.

7. Azusa Mukami

Admittedly, everything I know about Diabolik Lovers is through its fandom as I've yet to cave and buy the games. But from what little I know, Azusa seems pretty jirai. He seems innocent, fragile even- but has the typical amount of yandere tendencies for the series. He has a self harm addiction, and if you peruse his route you're in for a toxic time.

8. Satou Matsuzaka

This might be cheating because she's so popular on yandere tumblr, but Satou Matsuzaka (Happy Sugar Life) is ultra jirai kei. It's no wonder she's such a popular choice of pfp on japanese jiraitwt! She's obsessed with living out a fantasy saccarine-sweet life with the object of her desire, and given her full-blown yandere nature and her lolicon status, its no doubt shes a toxic partner. She's beloved at her school and workplace for her seemingly sweet nature and cute looks, but her kindness is only for the purposes of manipulation.

9. Kosame Amagai

Again, I'm no expert on Diabolik Lovers! But based on what my friends on yandereblr tell me, this guy is definately a jirai danshi. He's a lover of all things cute, who uses his cute shota-like appearance and polite manner of speech to lure others in. In reality, hes an abusive partner in his route, and takes his anger out on others verbally. He's willing to cry, scream, and threaten over the smallest of transgressions. Of course, he's also a yandere as per series standard.

10. Momonga

Okay so this is only half-serious, but there's a reason Momonga (Chiikawa) is so beloved by jirai girls and often depicted fitting the visual jirai stereotype in fanart. She's ultra cute! But she uses her appearance and acting vulnerable and innocent to try to get away with shithead behavior. She's loud, erratic, and self-obsessed, and often cries when she doesn't get her way. She's obviously the worlds cutest little manipulator, and she knows it.

I hope you enjoyed this list! There's a list for non-landmine pien kei characters coming soon, so feel free to send me asks with recommendations! And feel free to add on to this list in reblogs and comments!

Sayaka maizono and Celestia Ludenburg dating headcanons please~ I swear when I just started being in the Danganronpa fandom I had no idea people didn't like Sayaka but I love her.

sayaka maizono and celestia ludenberg dating hcs!

info: fluff, hc format, g/n!reader

a/n: sorry this took damn forever. i'm indifferent to both sayaka and celestia, i like celeste a little more but i'm pretty neutral towards both of em.

♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧

sayaka maizono

sayaka is pretty affectionate

her love language is gift giving so you're always waking up to cute notes around the house when she's gone

flowers are a frequent thing, whenever she sees a pretty bouquet she has to get it

she's touchy too, her favorite ways to touch you are by holding your arm, laying in your lap, and hand holding

she tends to take the lead on dates, and just in general too

she always has something fun planned to surprise you, like a fancy dinner at a reservations-only restaurant

remember, she's super famous so she can get you in anywhere

days of sitting at home doing nothing are rare, she simply won't let you be lazy

the two of you try many activities together, like music festivals, painting by the ocean, couples' cooking classes, etc.

sayaka treats you to a lavish lifestyle because she can, and she loves spoiling you

if you see something you like in a shop window but don't get it, guess what you find sitting on your bed the next day

in conclusion, dating sayaka is being flooded with love through touch and gift-giving, being spoiled, and filling your schedule with fun

celestia ludenberg

oh my goshhhhh you can't tell me celeste wouldn't spoil you and dress you up 24/7

she won't make you wear gothic lolita clothing like hers if you don't want to but god forbid you wear something secondhand

suddenly your entire closet has been replaced with designer outfits and your old clothing has been shoved somewhere else where she's hoping you'll forget them

anyway, when she buys you clothes you can bet your ass she's gonna make you put on a fashion show for her while she gives commentary

other than clothes though she'll frequently buy you material things like jewelry

she LOVES to see you wearing things she's bought you, it gives her a bit of a power trip

celeste's love language is quality time

the two of you don't need to be talking to have a good time with each other

her favorite activity with you actually involves complete silence

the two of you reading books in each other's presence, accompanied by tea and finger sandwiches that celeste had her butler prepare

this activity is only occasionally interrupted with dialogue, and its always very short

"is your novel living up to your expectations?"

"mhm"

"would you like another cup of tea?"

"why thank you, dear"

she is into physical touch too! she just doesn't crave it 24/7

she likes sitting in your lap or vice versa, she likes the power trip but also likes to feel like she's at someone else's whim sometimes

♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧

i think i need more of celeste...

Weather Update: The First Danganronpa Game secretly had TWO rivals the entire time.

Lemme explain (spoilers, obviously, and this is gonna be a bit a rant whoops):

Usual Danganronpa Format as the fandom usually sees it: Students trapped in an unfamiliar location with no idea what's going on, plot driven partially by the mystery but mostly by the character interactions.

Trigger Happy Havoc: Students trapped in an altered but still familiar location with no idea what's going on, plot driven partially by the character interactions but mostly by the mystery.

In a setting like DR2, V3, or a vast majority of fangans, the participants in the killing game are given very little information about their circumstances aside from what Monokuma gives them, which is deliberately vague and designed to direct them towards killing each other. Additionally, the students are given very little ability to react to and retaliate against the Killing Game system in ways Monokuma won't expect. Weirdness aside DR2 basically went all according to plan until the final trial due to Monokuma's nigh-omniscience, and V3 was similar with the only debatable exception being Kokichi's elaborate scheme in Chapter 5. Since the students are dealing with such restricted conditions, the plot can't be fully driven by the students figuring out the setting, so instead the plot focuses on the conflict that derives from the various characters reacting to the game. In a story like this, it makes sense that the most antagonistic characters aside from the mastermind would be the ones with EXTREME personalities that shake things up a lot. Nagito, Kokichi and that character archetype that everyone expects to be in a fangan are necessary to make the plot more INTERESTING.

But THH is different. The students KNOW where they are (or at least they think they do, and turn out to be right). While they don't have any recollection of the Academy itself, they at least know what to EXPECT from Hope's Peak, and can from there point out nooks and crannies for delicious little clues that reveal more about the situation, putting together a narrative without Monokuma's handholding. Additionally, despite his blustering Monokuma is explicitly NOT omniscient here, or even practically omniscient, as methods to hide things from him are figured out early on. The students are able to DO something about their situation as the story progresses, and have figured out some aspects of the overarching mystery as it pertains to them long before the final trial (and NOT because the Mastermind deliberately put the info in their path). This greater information access and greater character agency in general means that while the character conflicts are still very much a part of the plot, the overarching theme is solving the mystery while adapting to the circumstances to avoid dying.

In a setting like this, extreme/bizarre personalities aren't really a boon to the plot. While the character reveals add layers and information in other settings, here it's a distraction. The students HAVE resources, and at least SOME of the tools they need. Engaging in over-the-top schemes and traps is a DETRIMENT to their current course of action even more than in later games, which is probably why Monokuma tries to encourage them to do such. Other characters in THH fit the bill of "stereotypical DR Rival" probably better than the supposed-rival Byakuya and THH's other Rival character actually do. Celestia Ludenberg comes to mind, in another DR setting she could be exactly the sort of mysterious and interesting rival the series is known for (and that she clearly wants to be), but in THH she's just another annoyance. Toko Fukawa and Genocider have the extreme personality down, but they only advance the plot in the students' favor when they approach things logically and in a less crazy manner. If Rivals in this game are supposed to fit the bill of "causes unexpected occurrences and advances the plot but still clashes with the rest of the cast in intense ways while doing so" like the other Rival characters in the series do, they have to play the role under a different ruleset. Rather than representing a philosophical extreme through their personality, these rivals have to represent a different extreme: their methods and rationale when it comes to SOLVING THE MYSTERY / ESCAPING THE GAME.

And in this regard, Byakuya Togami plays the role wonderfully. The vast majority of the students in the game are very passive when it comes to solving the mystery. Sure, they get very active when trying to escape by killing someone, but that's just dancing to Monokuma's tune. Rather than wondering what to do, Byakuya makes his actions clear from the start, and everything he does in the game that's antagonistic fits that same M.O., while not doing anything that would put him in an uncertain position. He learns how the trial system functions, then during Chapter 2 he performs an experiment to analyze the other students further. His antagonism largely stems from viewing the other students as opponents, so his pragmatic approach makes sense, but he doesn't JUST analyze the players. He also analyzes the metaphorical board, and it's clear he's trying to get every scrap of info he can on his situation before fully committing to action (exhibit A: him spending so much freaking time in the library). The only stereotypically "nuts" thing he really does is down that bottle of poison/protein in Chapter 4. He's proving a point. He'll do anything it takes to win, and knowledge is power. Hence his active role in acquiring info about the game, the setting, and the other students' behaviors.

But Byakuya can't be the only Rival here. While he might be solving some mysteries in the background, we don't get to see much of it because the whole point of his character early on is conflict: his active versus the other's passive. He won't share his findings or really work with others, which is not good when our precious baby protag Makoto is trying to solve the mystery himself. Byakuya can't move the plot forward like that until after Chapter 4. Chapter 5 onward, Byakuya's method to his madness is revealed, and he contributes a lot to solving the mystery and directing the other students to getting more of the info he needs (exhibit A, dismantling Monokuma). And... that doesn't really fit with the formula later games set. Chapter 5 is when conflicts with the rival comes to head, and shenanigans abound. Nagito does it. Kokichi does it. But Byakuya isn't particularly inclined. Shenanigans with his own life at stake aren't his methods, they're just complications. But... the stuff still comes to a head with THH's other rival. The other character that's been progressing the plot in active ways that contrast with the other students, and clashing with the rest of the cast AND the player. The character whose life IS on the line in Chapter 5.

You've probably guessed by now that I'm talking about Kyoko Kirigiri.

When we look at her in retrospect, Kyoko doesn't raise any alarms compared to the craziness of the rest of the franchise. She helps with the investigations and moves the trials forward, she's nowhere near the craziness brought by Nagito and Kokichi, and generally just really competent. We categorize her in the "Assistant" role, similar to Chiaki and Shuichi/Kaede/Kaito/Maki/whoever (hey wait a second where did we even come up with this archetype anyway, if V3 doesn't even really seem to have one character who properly fits it?) She definitely fits the Assistant bill in DR3, but this ain't DR3. She doesn't fit the bill for stereotypical Danganronpa Trial Rival... but as previously established, Byakuya doesn't either. So let's go deeper and look at things in context. Because from the start of the game, Kyoko is weird. Really weird.

We're introduced not knowing anything about her, and she keeps it that way for a LONG time. "Ultimate ???" just screams she's going to be important later but you just don't know how (remember, this was BEFORE Rantaro). She's really helpful during the trials and is three steps ahead of everyone, but... aside from that a lot of her actions are really, REALLY conflict inducing. She is happy to get info from other students, but it's clear there's a lot she isn't sharing. She says ominous things to Monokuma that make no sense ("What did you do to my body?" anyone?) and seems VERY focused on the mystery. Just like Byakuya, she's taking an active role in analyzing every detail about the circumstances. And interestingly enough, she's just as paranoid as he is, just in different ways. As Makoto spends more time around her she manipulates him (and others) in some really unnerving ways, and her dynamics with other characters outside of trials are always either generically placating to keep things calm or downright low-key hostile when things don't go according to plan. Just like with Byakuya, for the vast majority of the game she doesn't trust anybody. And in chapter 5, these aspects of her character are brought into full view. She spends the entire chapter hiding away, she mysteriously appears in Makoto's room (side note: Nagito and Kokichi both have "looking over the protag in an unnerving fashion" pics. Byakuya doesn't. Kyoko DOES). It becomes clear in the trial how much she's hiding and how much she's been manipulating things. Chapter 5 is an impossible trial designed as a trap for HER. Her seemingly innocuous actions have come in full domino effect. And only Makoto and the power of being a Man Literally To Unpredictable To Die can save her.

(Makoto obviously isn't a rival character, but it's interesting to see how by THH's requirements he very well could have fit the bill. Think of him from Hina's or Hiro's perspective: he's seemingly innocuous, yet survived way longer than anyone would expect him to, often figures out just the right thing to say, both Byakuya and Kyoko interact with him a lot when neither of them seem to care about anyone else, and ultimately seems to become a lot more actively involved in mystery solving despite not having any right too. Couple that with the fact that he spent a couple days "bedridden" when from an outsider's perspective he could have been doing anything, and ngl Makoto sus. He even survives an execution!)

Both Byakuya and Kyoko take turns providing conflict to the story in ways that develop the plot but COMPLETELY clash with the passive methods of everyone else. They practically take turns being the one doing whatever crazy crap needs to get done. Their character arcs parallel each other too. Byakuya has to learn about the value of human life and emotional connection. Kyoko knows perfectly well how important life and emotions are, but she needs to learn that it's a two-way street, that trust needs to be established and that she doesn't have to do everything important herself. Byakuya, while lacking in empathy, is fully willing to work with others and outsource important tasks. He just views it as a business transaction. BOTH of them are prideful frickers who think they're the only one with a brain cell, and it's up to Makoto to undergo his own character arc, become their friend, and prove them wrong. And then once Makoto DOES finally take control and prove he's the one with the audacity required to actually get everything working, he's able to redirect both Byakuya and Kyoko into finally teaming up with everyone and stopping chaos so much chaos. Without either of them, Makoto couldn't have made it to the final trial (we can see when Kyoko dies in the Bad Ending that it's basically game over, the mystery CAN'T be solved, and I fully believe that the circumstances would have ended similarly if Byakuya had died and they'd lost his pragmatic logical reasoning). But without Makoto, Kyoko and Byakuya couldn't have made it THROUGH the final trial. All three of them are literary foils of each other.

(This is another reason why seeing all three of them in the final trial of DR2 is so fun, because the Trial Point Getters are a well-oiled machine by that point and you get to see them play off each other as 100% allies, while once again getting to see through Hajime's eyes how 100% sus all three of them really are once they get going.)

So that's why I think THH has some really good Rivals, despite neither Byakuya nor Kyoko fitting what we've come to expect from the formula. They aren't insane or representing a philosophical extreme, they're representing clashing viewpoints in solving a mystery and escaping the killing game. In other entries in the series, Byakuya and Kyoko would be killing game fodder for twisty midgame chapters and otherwise not being able to contribute much of interest. But in Trigger Happy Havoc? They're exactly what the game needs to elevate it from simple mystery-solving to full-blown ART.

TL;DR Byakuya and Kyoko are awesome and I love them and a lot of people sleep on their status as Danganronpa Rivals because they grade them on a standard that I think is unfair and ignores their strengths as characters. Also Makoto suddenly becomes way more interesting when viewed through a perspective other than his own. The first Danganronpa game is a materpiece and more fangans need to realize that they don't have to play by the supposed "series formula". After all, this game didn't.

Wearing casual clothes without her pale makeup, wig or contacts certainly has some advantages for Celes such as when Makoto accidentally walked in on her as she vibing herself to a raunchy vampire movie.

Luckily for her he didn’t recognize her without her usual getup

Disclaimer: R18 material! If not to your liking then please do not view!

Hey, sometimes even Celeste needed a break from Celeste. Hence why she was taking a 'day off' from herself. No poofy gothic lolita dress. No drill extensions. No fancy make-up.

She was not Celestia Ludenberg today, she was Taeko Yasuhiro. She was wearing a black tracksuit jacket that clung to her body tightly, and underneath a plain white t-shirt that showed off a good deal of her slightly chubby belly. A pair of baggy black pants was her choice of bottoms, though a part of her wonders if she should have opted for a better fit as they sometimes drooped a bit too low (giving the world a peak at her black thong underneath). Lastly, her feet replaced heels with a pair of sandals, and on her head was a pair of shades. Just a regular girl day: a Taeko day.

Though, whether Taeko or Celeste, her interests in creatures of the night, doesn't ever really disappear. She loved vampires and loved movies about them dominating mere mortals and their extravagant wealth, so she had a field day not only finding the theatre nearly empty, but a film that catered to her interests that day. Kicking up her legs in the middle of the rows, Taeko got comfy as it started. Truly the world was rewarding her on her 'Selfcation Day'. What could throw a wrench in this plan?~

"Hi, is this seat taken?" God fucking damn it. Of all people, it was MAKOTO who ended up running into her. Seriously?! Apparently, he wanted to see the movie to recommend to his 'good friend Celeste'. On one hand, Taeko was touched by his kindness...

On the other hand, why the Hell did he choose to sit right next to her. Of all these empty seats?!!! Of fucking course, this guy was too dense to get her hints that he should maaaaaybe/definitely look about for one of the open spaces of the theatre instead of being so close...oh well. At least that denseness also means he didn't recognize her.

Maybe...this won't be so bad? As the movie went underway, with the vampire queen awakening and amassing an army of followers by luring them in with her voluptuously sexy body (and inevitably fucking all of them~), both Taeko and Makoto got into the movie's more...raunchier undertones. Taeko, imagining herself as that domineering queen, loved witnessing each servant falling in line thanks to the queen's charisma. Makoto, who saw himself in the poor citizens like the college student or office worker, couldn't help but be flustered when he saw each guy being so easily pinned down, fucked and turned helplessly.

Needless to say, both was turned on~ As the movie continued on, an aroused Taeko would glance at Makoto, or really his crotch, and upon seeing even in the darkness, that Makoto had quite the hard-on, well, a thought came to Taeko.

This was her day - why not enjoy it with a little treat? Slowly, Taeko got down on the ground and moved in-between Makoto's legs. Shushing the luckster before he could alert anyone outside the threatre room, she unzipped his zipper and pulled out his cock. Damn~ Makoto was really packing something down there, huh? Slowly, sensually, sadistically, Taeko began to stroke his cock - watching with satisfaction as he moaned softly and was taken aback by such treatment.

Well. Soft moans were only for a few moments. Because he began to really moan and breathe harder when she began to lick at his dick furiously. Her tongue teasing his twitchy mushroom, suckling on his shaft, even giving some attention to his balls - God, this was amazing. As this was happening, Taeko was massaging her pussy, getting very wet from being so brazen - so naughty!!!

But she needed to take this even further. Taking down her pants and thong, Taeko spread her cheeks and plopped down right on Makoto's dick. Bounce, bounce, bounce! Both luckster and gambler were in an unspoked battle now - a bet! Would Taeko cum first from getting her ass fucked by out in secret like this in public or would a very stimulated Makoto give in first, worn down from both a hand and blowjob?

Ultimately, the bet was rigged from the start~ With a long agonizing moan, Makoto shot spunk after spunk into Taeko's ass, and drenching their seat and his lap in it. Though, even then it was quite close as Taeko squirted near after her victory, ruining their spot more.

God!!!! What a rush~ So this was what fate has decreed Taeko gets on her day off? Hehehehehe...then she needs to take more vacations often. Getting up from her seat, Taeko planted a wet kiss onto Makoto's lips and gestured for him to clean up and follow her. The afternoon was still young, and Taeko certainly wanted to continue this engagement somewhere else. Somewhere more...private, at least~ Like a love hotel, perhaps? Getting the picture, Makoto quickly followed after her, both leaving via the exit doors and out towards a more 'cozy' destination....

(Considering the mess left behind on their seating, they made a very good decision to leave while the movie was still on-going and before anyone else could see their messy climax~)

[cosmichorrorsarestillnicerthanme]

Celestia, Miu and Kyoko with an S/O who's the opposite of them personality wise and everyone is like you two are dating? Why? Since the reader is bright bubbly and kind while Celestia and Kyoko are more on the cold and calcuting side and Miu is just straight up rude. When asked reader just says they just find Said girl cute not knowing the girlfriend is listening in secret

Your wish is my command!

(You have no Idea how tempted I was to make the reader this perfect saint in public but as soon as they’re alone with Miu they become this flirty seducer that loves to tease her)

Celestia Ludenberg

Honestly?

She’s just as confused as everyone else

Why in the world would someone like “you” be with someone like “her”

Initially when you started to show interest she thought you were after her money

She quickly learned this wasn’t the case when you won and traded in a truly ridiculous amount of money in the form of poker chips for a date with her

Just for this she promoted you two ranks

She quickly promoted you up another rank in the same week when you gave her a full box of Rose Hip Tea

This continued for the next year or so until you became one of the few A-ranks

And the whole time people would ask “Why are you with her of all people!?” and Celestia had to physically restrain herself from asking the very same question nearly every day

She was driving herself mad over it

Over how you were nearly perfect for her in every way

When she was frustrated you could easily calm her

When she was happy you praised her

When she was cold and cruel you would warm her heart

She simultaneously loves it and is completely flabbergasted by it

And then one day when she was finally going to ask (read: force you) to tell her why you were with her she saw you speaking to your best friend aside from her

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

“So, my sibling in Christ, why in the world are you with Ludenberg!?” Your friend exclaimed

Then without even a hint of hesitation in your voice you said “Because she’s cute”

Celestia then fell from the corner she was peering around and onto the ground unfitting of a lady of her stature before scrambling to her feet with her face flushed the same color of red as her eyes before sprinting as fast as she could to her room and slamming the door behind her.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Oh god

Oh fuck

Oh god

Oh fuck

Oh god

Oh fuck

Oh god

Oh fuck

Oh god

Oh fuck

YOU CALLED HER CUTE

BUT SHE’S BEEN CALLED CUTE BEFORE BY OTHER PEOPLE AND SHE HAD NOTHING CLOSE TO THIS SORT OF REACTION!!!

SHE’S THE GODDAMN QUEEN OF LIARS!!!

SHE’S KNOWN AND FEARED WORLD WIDE FOR HER ABILITY TO KEEP A STRAIGHT FACE!!!

AND YET HER SHE IS CURSING LIKE A SAILOR IN HER OWN HEAD AND BLUSHING LIKE A SCHOOLGIRL BECAUSE YOU CALLED HER CUTE!!!

WHY ARE YOU SO SPECIAL!!!

Celestia then turned on her heels and nearly tore her door of their hinges and stomped down to you before dragging you off to her room

She will get the reason you are so special out of you

One way or another

Miu Iruma

She is so completely smitten with you

It’s hilarious how much of a simp she is

Or it would be if she wasn’t constantly trying to cave anyone who looked at you funny heads in with one of her wrenches while screaming obscenities 

The amount of bodies you’ve had to help her dispose of is truly astounding

Not to mention she’s mean as a snake and has a razor sharp tongue

Everyone who knows you is deeply concerned with your taste in women 

But you always respond with “Don’t worry it’s fine, she could never hurt me!”

“The rest of you however…” was left unsaid

So one day when a friend of yours asked why you were with her Miu decided to see what you would say with one of her handy bugs

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

“We’ve known each other for years, yeah?” Your friend asked as they took a sip of the drink you made for them

“Yeah…?” You responded confused by your friend's question.

“So… ah fuck it i’m going to just stop beating around the bush and get straight to the godamn point, WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU WITH IRUMA!?!?!”

“She’s cute as a button” was your reply

Your friend fell onto their face and Miu fell out of her chair

“WHAT!” Both Miu and your Friend shouted in tandem despite being separated by the soundproofing material in Miu’s workshop

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

You thought she was cute!

I mean she knows she’s hot AF

BUT CUTE!

AS A BUTTON!!

THIS IS UNPRECEDENTED!!!

You know what that means!

Time for you to be dragged off by a demented inventor to god knows where!

Kyoko Kirigiri

Most people don’t actually mind Kyoko

I mean sure she’s aloof

But she’s not to the point where people are worried about your mental state due to your preference in women

That said

There are a lot of people who are confused about your relationship

More specifically how the two of you work despite your wildly differing personalities

That and how in the world you learn to speak Kyoko Kirigiri 

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Kyoko glared at the menu before “Hmm-ing”

“I’m sorry, do you mind repeating that?” The worker asked.

“She said wants a triple quarter pounder with cheese, pickles, extra sauces, a two spicy chicken with your spiciest sauce and pickles, large fries and a large soda” You translated

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Like 

How the fuck do get THAT from a godamn “Hmm”

And how the fuck did Kyoko eat all of that!

Spoiler: no one will ever know

Even your best friend who is one of the people who doesn’t quite understand your relationship 

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

“I don’t really understand you and Kyoko” Your friend admitted

“Why?” Why you asked

“It’s just… the two of you are so different that's all” Your friend said before continuing by asking “Maybe if you told me what got you into her I’d get a better feeling about why the two of you like each other?”

“Oh that’s simple! She’s cute!” you exclaimed

A large crash was heard nearby

“What in the hell was that!?” your friend exclaimed

The two of you never figured it out

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

The next time you saw Kyoko she was without her trademark gloves which you have only ever seen her without a handful of times.

From that day onwards whenever the two of you were alone together she never wore them

[salbertwolf]

Talent Swap Au - Part 3!

I'm so normal about them what do you mean

Decided to just post the remaining ones here in just one batch because I need to throw the ideas somewhere and I do not have the patience I would like to imagine I have, especially not with stuff I want to talk about.

Be warned! Some spoilers for DR1, read at your own discretion.

First Group - The Deserved Better Gang

Yasuhiro Hagakure - Ultimate Idol

Going through his Hozier era, good for him <- Friend about him.

This man can fit so many conspiracies in his head.

Him and Mondo know each other in a daily basis because of some reasons I'll say later, you can imagine how his dead impacted the other.

Why pick Sakura? He's dumb but not that dumb.

"Those are some weird blood splatters" "It looks like a tree" "Huh" Truth Bullet Added! "Poorly Drawn Tree".

Sakura Ogami - Ultimate Baseball Idol

She's wearing a 50's style baseball uniform, this is not her usual uniform but she likes how it looks so sue her.

The deal with the mm still happens and goes as you'd expect.

She didn't kill Hiro because she wanted, Hina was the original target for the letter so she went to confront him about it.

Aoi Asahina - Ultimate Programmer

I had to look up so many Y2K fashion girl I'm so sorry that this means you died 3rd.

Alter Ego takes mostly the form of her brother and she created both to help and cope with everything.

Her death happens because her and Makoto have heard of each other through her brother, he didn't mean to kill her he swears! Still happens, I hug her.

Second Group - Trouble Trio

Kyoko Kirigiri - Ultimate Gambler

She went to live with her dad when she was little but the deduction talent runs through her blood, she is type of player that counts card and doesn't get caught.

Eventually reconnected with her grandfather and flips her dad off a lot.

Case 3 was not for the money, it was a revenge thingy.

Makoto Naegi - Ultimate Biker Gang Leader

Still a sweethear! Just a good boy that could kick you in your knees and send you to the hospital

Started the gang more of a personal thing but then it got out of control and he doesn't know what will happen if he decides to leave (Especially since the Crazy Diamonds guys left so some of the members moved to his gang).

Sister is his second in command

Expected to get caught in Trial 2, then the whole meddling with the crime scene happened and he doesn't know how to feel about it.

Byakuya Togami - Ultimate Fanfic Creator

That type of nerd that corrects you even if you get a tiny detail wrong because "How dare you get this wrong even if you are just starting to learn about this piece of media? You are unworthy of calling yourself a true fan!".

Loser, L.

Doesn't know how he became friends with Makoto but case 3 certainly did happen got killed LMAO.

Third Group - The Allies(?)

Hifumi Yamada - Ultimate Moral Compass

I struggled so hard giving him a talent I tried my best.

The type of hall monitor that strucks a conversation with you while walking and you not realizing he took you to detention or the office.

Nothing like canon Hifumi, just, nothing, the best way to write Hifumi is not writing Hifumi.

Mukuro Ikusaba - Ultimate Martial Artist

The main 6's emotional support through everything, elder sister tired energy.

Her and Junko didn't get separated at teens but they are friends, she really cared about her sister and loves her very much.

That's all, thank you for hearing me ramble once again

Case 1 aftermath being like:

Part 1 <-

Part 2 <-

Part 4 <-

[shslquestionmark]

Celeste's complex murder was always interesting to me. That's the one that I have the most trouble understanding or relating to. Strange motive, strange case, complicated murder.

//I have a lot to say about this! I think to understand her murder plans, we have to primarily understand Celeste as a liar and a narcissist.

//I don't think Celeste's primary motive is greed. I think what deep down motives Celeste is that she is horrifically afraid of being ordinary and overlooked. Thus why she creates such a grandiose persona for herself and, when pushed, she says that Taeko Yasuhiro is a loser.

//But I don't think she necessarily thinks she *is* Celestia Ludenberg. Like, on some level, she still thinks she is an ordinary loser, and she's just tricking everyone. That's why in the final moments when she's caught, her mask breaks and she speaks without her fake accent.

//the money motives are symbolic. "If I have a castle and 20 vampire butlers then I'll finally REALLY be Celestia Ludenberg, and then I will finally feel worthwhile."

//As for the murder itself, I think she actually does a really good job of the lying part of it. I mean, when you consider her actions prior to her chapter, everything she's said and done is in service of this ultimate plan; claiming that she has the ability to adapt to their new environment to set the groundwork for herself as someone who couldn't be behind this murder, while frightening the others into suspecting one another. And the whole thing with the hammers is her running this murder like a shell game.

//The part that trips her up is the central role she gives herself. Her murder seems obvious because she's the one constantly lying and leading the group around. She'd have been safer if she hadn't given herself a starring role in the scheme.

//Bonus: Hifumi giving the critical "Yasuhiro" clue in such a confusing way is a really funny example of what a smug loser he is. He can't just talk normally in a way people would understand, even as he lays dying. He has to be clever and flex in that moment.

Reasons why they got akumatized... Part 1

Sayaka Maizono

She was performing with her idol band in the park. One of the members was very jealous of Sayaka being in the spotlight. During the concert, the said jealous member sabotaged Sayaka's performance, humilinating her infront of her fans. Sayaka was hurt and sad that one of her friends did such a thing, even tho she cared about members of the band. Kiyotaka Ishimaru -He was a candidate for Student Council president. He lost because of the gossip about the scandal featuring his grandfather as the prime minister. Taka was upset not because he lost, but because once again his family's name was ruined. Aoi Asahina

She participated in pool race in Swimming Club. She did not win, but she was not feeling bad about it… until some girls in locker room started to laugh at her failure. Aoi was sad because she did not understand why they were mean to her Byakuya Togami

He had an argument with his father, who was the CEO of Togami Corp. During the argument, Byakuya's father threatened that Byakuya won't be a heir of the company if he keeps acting "arrogant". Byakuya was very mad but also worried if his father would really disown him. Toko Fukawa

She wrote a very poetic love letter for Byakuya, and held it while going to him. But she suddenly tripped over, dropping the letter. Some mean girls read it and laughed at her. Toko ran away to bathroom and sobbed in the cabin. Mondo Owada

He and his brother Daiya were normally getting well. Soon Mondo got tired of living in Daiya's shadow. What else, Daiya was kinda overprotective of Mondo. And of course at some point they had a fight. Sakura Ogami

She participated in boxing in Martial Arts Club. Her oppotent teased and nagged her, but she tried to focus. Until the said oppotent made fun out of Aoi, which made Sakura snap and go furious. Although she won, she was still very mad that someone hurted her best friend. Leon Kuwata -He decided to start following his dream to become a musican, and went to casting for new Rock Club at school. But he did not pass, plus some idiot said he is wasting his actual talent (being a baseballist), that his trainer would be disappointed at him (trainer is an ex-baseball star), that he barely can play anything and other dumb stuff. It really pissed Leon off, and you know he is a hot-head. Celestia Ludenberg

She decided to invite her classmates for a tea party, but no one showed up. It was because people did not trust Celeste. She felt lonely, so she went to casino again… Hifumi Yamada

He was known for watching Transformer-ish and Superhero anime's, but he secretly liked Princess Piggles. Someone found Princess Piggles in Hifumi's backpack, and they bullied him. He was very embarrased yet mad at bullies. Chihiro Fujisaki

He became a target of some jocks who teased him because of looking weak and frail for a boy. He wanted to defend himself, but he felt weaker and weaker… When bullies walked away, he could not help but silently cry. Yasuhiro Hagakure

In AU he is a student in Psychology University. He had a trouble with a bully, which he owed money from. He was very paranoid of what would happen if he don't pay…

Give me what akumasona suggestions!

[blastthechaos]

Naeceles is hilarious to me because you can tell Makoto doesn't buy into any of the nonsense Celeste is spewing most of the time, not because he is stupid but she says such inane stuff and seems like she lives in her own little fantasy world that he goes "Ok yeah sure" to everything she says.

But she has such a passion for it that he can't help it and try to help her achieve it.

"Yes, your real name is Celestia Ludenberg, yes you're from French and German descent, yes all those stories you tell me are true, oh you want me to become your knight so I can spend the rest of my life with you in a European Castle with Butlers/bodyguards dressed as vampires? Sure, why the hell not? Anything for you honey"

Meanwhile Celeste is down bad for Makoto.

Every THH Character's First Line

because I can and I want to and nobody can stop me (also hi I'm not including internal dialogue from the protags it's their first verbal line)

Yasuhiro Hagakure- "Woah, hey! Another new kid?"

Chihiro Fujisaki- "Yeah... We're all new here. Today's supposed to be our first day of class."

Hifumi Yamada- "So counting him, that makes fifteen. Seems like a good cutoff point, but I wonder if this is everyone..."

Celestia Ludenberg- "Things just keep getting curiouser and curiouser..."

Kiyotaka Ishimaru- "Just a moment! There's something else we must address!"

Mukuro Ikusaba- "What's your problem? It's not like he *wanted* to be late. He didn't have any control over it."

Aoi Asahina- "Everyone just calm down! Listen, why don't we all go around and introduce ourselves?"

Mondo Owada- "The hell!? Now's no time for friggin' introductions!"

Sayaka Maizono- "Okay, so let's get introductions out of the way, then we can move on to whatever else. Sound good?"

Toko Fukawa- "N-Not that you'll remember my n-name anyway, but..."

Leon Kuwata- "Yo! The name's Leon Kuwata. What's up?"

Kyoko Kirigiri- "My name is... Kyoko Kirigiri."

Sakura Ogami- "I am Sakura Ogami."

Genocider Syo- "Sorry about that. I was just so shocked, ya know? It happens, right? Was I the only one?"

Junko Enoshima- "We have been waiting! Waiting so very long for peasants like you to appear!"

[yvannahaleth]

Maki, Kyoko and Celestia with a Boyfriend who's usually is pretty affectionate and a bit clingy starts acting a bit cold. They fall under the impress that he's either cheating or about to break up with them but after suddenly asking them on a date he proposes to them.

Maki Harukawa, Kyoko Kirigiri, and Celestia Ludenberg x M! Reader Whose Clingy Suddenly Become Cold and Propose To Them

M! Reader, Fluff, SFW

Maki Harukawa:

She's...

She felt guilt

She's shocked

She's miserable

Is this perhaps her own karma for not treating you right?

Is this perhaps her own karma for being cold towards you?

Well, she tried to go on with her day as if nothing happened

BUT SHE CAN'T!!!!

She might looks like she's okay but believe me, she's feeling like she could choke someone out of spite.

UNTIL YOU SUDDENLY PROPOSED TO THEM????

She was speechless.

Really.

"Are you toying with my feelings right now?" she said while SMIRKING?!? ;?!?

Ms. Girl was annoyed at the fact that you did all that 'cold shoulder' to her before you asked her hand in marriage

Anyway, she accepted, of course.

SHE DEFINITELY BLUSHES A LOT AND STILL ACT CALM

Kyoko Kirigiri:

Poor girl is blaming herself

She thought that this is because of the way she acts

She thought that this is because of her being cold even when you both are in a relationship

Yes, she does blush and kiss you

But it's not enough, isn't it?

She feels horrible.

Same like Maki, she probably hides her worries in a calm attitude

She's so confused when you proposed to her

"????"

Bro was confused, 'so are you cheating on me or what??"

She sighed in relief, she loves you so much she can't get mad at you for being cold towards her

She loves you so much, she accepted

Celestia Ludenberg:

She's confused

"What did i do wrong?"

You did nothing wrong, Celeste.

"Is it because of the way i act?"

Noo :((

"Is it because of my fault?"

Noo, of course not

"Is it because i asked them to roleplay as vampires once?"

..... Maybe

BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER

What matters now is that you're literally ignoring her

She tried to initiate a conversation with you

"Why, if this isn't the boyfriend that has been ignoring me for days."

I can tell she tried to guilt trip you so you could feel guilty and then apologize to her

BUT YOU DIDN'T

Which makes her more surprised.

AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN

You proposed to her

She was...

Speechless????

Didn't say anything to you for two minutes and then hugged you as a 'yes'

She definitely said something like

"You better be a perfect husband or I'm going to put on a leash on you and starts acting as if you're my pet bat."

Can't tell if she's not anymore, tbh

[dragondemoness]

Kyoko kirigiri confesses her love to a male s/o that thinks she is going out with celestia ludenberg

Kyoko Kirigiri Confessing to a Male Reader Who Thinks She's Dating Celeste

...What?

I'm sorry, but how did you make a mistake like this in the first place?

These two were barely even acquaintances, let alone lovers

They seemed to have nothing in common, and yet, Celeste's teasing remarks towards Kyoko came across as flirting

Although really, it was just because Celeste was trying to get a reaction out of Kyoko, which always failed

Like everyone else, Kyoko was beneath her

Speaking of the lavender-haired detective, she found it odd when you suddenly started avoiding her

She planned to ask you about it, but one day, you wandered into the dining hall, where she and Celeste were drinking tea together

"Hello, (Name)."

"Hm? Oh, hello, my dear. Would you care for some tea?"

"Oh, um... No thanks. I don't want to interrupt."

You turned to leave the dining hall, but Celeste tilted her head with a curious hum

"What do you mean by that?"

Kyoko mirrored her look, clearly wanting an explanation as well

"Well... Aren't you two dating?"

Celeste let out an amused giggle while Kyoko simply looked at you in confusion

"Oh my! How on earth did you come to that conclusion? Why, you're an even worse detective than Kirigiri. We most certainly are not dating."

You looked at her in genuine confusion

"...You're not?"

"Of course not. I would never date a mere C-Rank like her. No one in this building is worthy of my time. No, Kirigiri is far from my first choice of partner."

Well, that was harsh, but at least you still had a chance

Kyoko awkwardly cleared her throat before putting her tea cup away and approaching you

"I'm sorry you had to hear it from her. But no, Celeste and I aren't dating. I'm interested in someone else."

"Who's that?'

A light blush formed on her face as she looked you in the eyes

"Isn't it obvious?"

You then accepted her confession, and the two of you smiled as you stared into each other's eyes

Then Celeste cleared her throat from across the room

"Pardon me, but in case you did not notice, I am trying to drink my tea. Please get this hideous display of affection out of my sight at once."

After being kicked out of the dining hall, you and Kyoko went to her room to relax

You really weren't sure how you made that assumption, but all's well that ends well
