#big kokichi fan tho lol

[im0ncaffeine]

please PLEASE give me kokichi stuffz, like the key to my heart? Kokichi. I want my spooky, goobery, lying (yet truthing on occasion) don’t-feed-after-midnight, way-too-pale-for-anything, short Oompa Loompa and I want him now.

Who cares if he’ll probably kill me in my sleep, I want to hug him. Drawings? Yes please. He’s just a goofy goober that makes mistakes and like, is way too infantilised as the pregame when in reality he’d be snarky sort of creature. I would take this man and actually let him take over the world. Like I will

[shslrose]

Whats your favorite game out of all three

i love all three so much, you’re basically asking me to choose my favorite child ugh!

thh: i love the atmosphere of this game the most. something about being stuck inside a single building for days is just so unsettling and the other games don’t even come close to capturing this vibe.  going thru thh for the first time is such an experience, like the enoshima reveal is just top tier.  only thing i hate abt this game is my baby taka didnt survive </3

fav thh characters: kyoko (best girl), mondo, taka, byakuya

i love sdr2 as well, it’s got some of my fav characters but i’m not the biggest fan of the ~island~ vibes tbh. altho i like enoshima’s revival, i wish there was more of an emphasis on izuru being the true mastermind.) however, i think trials 2 and 4 are honestly just some of the best in the series. 

fav sdr2 characters: chiaki, sonia, fuyuhiko, gundham

drV3: i know some people didn’t like the ending, but i thought it was interesting, altho i would have prefered a ‘traditional’ dr storyline. i also like that the Ultimate Academy is more of a return to the original thh atmosphere. also, i rlly like the inclusion of angie’s character, i think she’s a very interesting minor antagonist. obviously have to address the big ol’ elephant in the room, the kaede / shuichi switcheroo. tbh, i love it, however, i think it would have been much better if cases 1 and 2 were switched for two reasons. for starters, it would have given us more time to get to know kaede and rantaro, and secondly the motive video was the first motive in thh so it should have been motive one again. 

fav drv3 characters: shuichi, kaede, maki, kaito, rantaro, kiibo. [honorable mentions to kokichi, miu, angie, tenko, and gonta; love certain things about these characters but i can’t put everyone on the favs list lol]

so!! even tho i love all of the games with my whole heart, i think v3 takes the top spot for me. thank u for sending this in, i love discussing these games :D i’d be down to answer anything abt them tbh

NDRV3 HPA AU characterization notes

(also added some additional details on their character designs :D) I already made a character guide of the kids here, but after writing a spontaneously updated fanfic about their school/dorm life, I now have a better grasp of how to portray them in this AU. More under the cut~

Family headcanons here

[Facebook] [Instagram] [Twitter] [Blogger] [Kofi]

The HPA AU comics I’ve been doing admittedly focused more on certain characters, so I’ve hardly thought about how to flesh out the others. To remedy that, I wrote a chatfic that revolved around them as a class and what started as something ‘just for fun’ turned into something a bit more serious, complete with plot and drama (which is strange for something in a chatfic format lol).

Kaede Akamatsu: The cheerful, charismatic and kind pianoholic who promotes friendship and cooperation, earning her the position of Class Representative. Selfless and empathetic to a fault, but can be quite pushy and bossy. Behind her confident facade, Kaede is insecure of not being able to live up to her responsibilities believing that all she’s ever good at is playing the piano, going by a ‘fake it til you make it’ attitude so as not to disappoint the people that relied on her ‘leadership.’ She has a tendency to be tactless towards people when very annoyed or under extreme stress.

Add: While not a very good cook, Kaede is an experienced baker.

Closest friend/s: Shuichi (childhood best friend), Rantaro, Kaito, Maki, Kirumi, Tenko (she is at least good friends with everyone in class tho)

Shuichi Saihara: The meek and soft-spoken detective in training who eventually fills the role of assistant class rep to Kaede. Cool-headed and intelligent, Shuichi shows promise of being proactive and responsible, but has difficulty in asserting himself due to confidence issues. He can be very emotional, prone to easily cry when overwhelmed by negative emotions. He also struggles with depression at times, although he tries to hide it as best he could. To people he is close with, Shuichi can be quite sassy and would joke about his ‘emo aesthetic.’

(When Shuichi wore his hat, his necktie is the standard red one)

Add: Shuichi is an avid fan of all things detective (looks up to Kyoko Kirigiri, has a sizable collection of Nancy Drew Books and Detective Conan Manga, retweets a lot of Sherlock Holmes quotes etc.)

Closest friend/s: Kaede (childhood best friend), Kaito, Maki, Kokichi, Kiibo

Kokichi Ouma: The self proclaimed supreme leader, he is a compulsive liar and prankster, fond of being disruptive and annoying towards his peers. While he tends to lie a lot, it’s not as outrageous and over the top (like in-game), and he would never push the buttons of anyone who was already distressed. Behind his outward unpleasantness, Kokichi cares a lot about his classmates, often calling them out on their bad habits (albeit it’s also in an unpleasant way) and looking out for them in his own unique way (which is subtle, at most). He dreads showing this side of him to class 79, as this was a sign of attachment on his part and this was only reserved to D.I.C.E members initially.

Add: Kokichi doesn’t know how to dance.

Closest friend/s: Rantaro, Shuichi

Maki Harukawa: The surly, unapproachable ‘assassin’ who is the walking definition of a tsundere. She dislikes socializing with her classmates, mostly because of her inability for small talk and difficulty to relate with her peer group as she spent most of her time dealing with children (in the orphanage). Maki is blunt but not unkind, and may be occasionally dismissive but (secretly) greatly appreciates those who reach out to her. Being emotional is Maki’s greatest pet peeve, making her great at compartmentalizing and repressing her emotions.

Add: Maki was physically conditioned and trained to be an assassin but it was for her to be Motion Capture stunt girl for an assassin-centric game. Has not killed anyone in real life, but physically can if desired.

Closest friend/s: Kaito, Shuichi, Kaede

Kaito Momota: The loud-mouthed and passionate astronaut who likes to give pep talks more than Kaede. Kaito pretty much keeps the class lively with his dumb antics. Despite his air of stupidity, he is quite street smart and a good judge of character.  He has patriarchal views on gender roles, naturally irking most of his female peers. Additionally, he is hot-headed, stubborn and very competitive. True to his very upbeat and positive persona though, he dislikes showing weakness/ appearing weak. Kaito suffers from Tuberculosis, hence he coughs a lot.

Add: Kaito makes the best omelettes.

Closest friend/s: Maki, Shuichi, Kaede, Ryoma (one-sided)

Rantaro Amami: The lax and enigmatic adventurer who likes to meme, apart from traveling the world. Rantaro has a big brother vibe to him, but can be quite silly at times. He is fond of recounting experiences about his travels, often retelling them in a more imaginative version. Despite his nonchalant approach on everything, Rantaro is very particular on people’s perspective of him. He craves to be an important figure among his classmates, just like his central role on his siblings’ lives.

Add: Rantaro has a Youtube channel where he makes travel vlogs in the style of Bear Grylls’ Man VS Wild.

Closest friend/s: Tsumugi (middle school bestfriend), Kokichi, Kaede, Kiibo, Korekiyo

Kirumi Tojo: The responsible and mature maid with a strict adherence to her creed on selfless devotion. Kirumi is very capable of doing any (reasonable) task given to her, completing them with practiced efficiency. Taking her talent more seriously, she appears impassive and mechanical to her classmates. Her maid schtick is actually a conscious effort for her; beneath the carefully-maintained frigid and collected persona is a shy and anxious Kirumi with personal whims and ambitions. She has a sense of humor and would sometimes tease her classmates in some way or another (which always takes them by surprise). She can be quite condescending and judgmental when pushed to the limit.

Add: Kirumi is a closet bookworm, and has a collection of cheesy, young adult romance novels (may or may not own some raunchy ones).

Closest friend/s: Ryoma, Kaede

Korekiyo Shinguji: The studious and aloof anthropologist who revels in the beauty of humanity. Kiyo likes to observe people, mentally taking note of the intricacies of human nature, although this hobby of his isn’t taken kindly by some. Ambitious and resourceful, he spends a lot of time reading to further his knowledge. In turn, he is quite socially inept and often scares away any ‘potential friend’ with his intelligent ramblings. He is very close with his sickly older sister, but gets annoyed with her fussiness.

Add: He is a capable illustrator, often adding sketches on his journal of anthropological notes.

Closest friend/s: Rantaro, Gonta, Angie

Tsumugi Shirogane: The quirky cosplayer and talented seamstress with a habit of referencing popular and obscure pop culture stuff. Tsumugi is an avid fan of a lot media, from games to animes to TV shows, both western and japanese, often spending most of her time in her room to indulge in her fandoms. She also has a tendency to break the fourth wall and would reference the ‘NDRV3 canon universe.’ Tsumugi is quite insecure of her geeky side, and is a bag of nerves when under the spotlight. She is cowardly and unable to stand her ground, often playing for both sides in an argument in an effort to please both.

(the only one wearing the HPA uniform without modifications lol)

Add: She is a big fan of Junko Enoshima (a fashion blogger with her own brand of clothing).

Closest friend/s: Rantaro (middle school bestfriend)

Ryoma Hoshi: The stoic and detached Pro Tennis player who is very fond of felines. Ryoma likes to spend most of his time alone and would often disappear to god knows where. He is responsive when in conversation, talking in a melancholic tone. He is profound and insightful, open to giving advice freely to those in need. While very patient, he is vindictive and unforgiving to those who wronged him horribly. His whole family was murdered by a mafia group (leaving him with just the family cat) and he has since personally chased leads that will bring the perpetrators to justice. Despite his pursuit of the killers, he is not interested in delivering justice on his own and merely conducted his own investigation to aid law enforcement.

Add: Ryoma has a folder of cat game apps on his phone, his favorite in particular being Neko Atsume.

Closest friend/s: Kirumi, Gonta

Gonta Gokuhara: The gentle giant with a fascination on animals, particularly insects. Gonta is good-natured (very kind, polite and honest) but naive and childish. In spite of this, he cannot be easily tricked by Kokichi and would sometimes even join in on roasting him. He wants to be a gentleman and really tries his best to exhibit qualities of such. While not academically smart (being raised in the wild), he has extensive knowledge on flora and fauna. Gonta has bouts of self-doubt, believing himself to be incapable of anything. He can be very hard on himself and would do reckless things to prove himself.

Add: Contrary to most of his classmates’ impression on him, Gonta is not technologically challenged. He plays Overwatch in his free time (he mains Bastion).

Close friend/s: Ryoma, Korekiyo

Miu Iruma: The lewd and brash inventor with onion skin. Miu is outspoken and campy, often considered obnoxious by her classmates. She likes to make dirty jokes and projects an air of self-importance, but is also quick to deflate when reprimanded or talked back at. Being neglected her whole life, Miu wants attention, hence her over the top personality but this in turn made her a deplorable person. She spends most of her time building knickknacks to stave off the loneliness she feels. Over time, she does try to be less of a difficult person.

Add: Miu doesn’t know how to swim or ride a bike (but she can invent something that will keep her afloat on water and something that can keep her balanced on the bike).

Close friend/s: Kiibo

Kiibo Idabashi (not a Robot): The well-meaning and pacifistic Robotics Engineer that has a difficulty in relating with his fellow humans. Kiibo has lived a very sheltered life and has not been exposed to any social interaction with his age group prior to his enrollment at Hope’s Peak, making him quite stiff and robotic. He is very shy and apprehensive at speaking in class or called to recitation. He is also wimpy, but can get very defensive of his robotic creations.

Add: Kiibo missed out a lot on his childhood, so class 79 would often indulge him on what he was deprived of (like having pizza, playing tag and watching animated films).

Close friend/s: Miu, Shuichi, Rantaro

Tenko Chabashira: The energetic and cheerful aikido master who loves to defend girls from the degenerate MENaces. Tenko loves to be active, often encouraging the girls to exercise (especially those with a sedentary lifestlye). A fiery character, she wears her emotions on her sleeves and reacts strongly on impulse. She has a on a hair trigger temper, especially if the aggressor involves a guy and has a tendency to be physically violent. Tenko’s distaste towards men in general stems from a dark past: she and her mother suffered abuse from her own father. Her mother was eventually murdered by her father in front of her (at a young age) and after her father was subsequently locked up, she was taken in by her mother’s friend who was matriarchal.

Add: She is an adept shogi and chess player.

Close friend/s: Himiko, Angie, Kaede

Himiko Yumeno: The resident sloth who also happens to be a magician (er… mage). Himiko is very lethargic, dislikes doing almost any physical activity, often trying to weasel her way out of doing assigned tasks and the like. She isn’t dismissive of social interaction though, and is quite talkative when you start a conversation with her. She loves to watch youtube videos and web series, particularly korean drama. She is good at math, and would tutor Angie and Tenko when pestered enough.

Add: Himiko is ambidextrous, and can seamlessly use chopsticks with her left hand.

Close friend/s: Tenko, Angie

Angie Yonaga: The eccentric and bubbly artist with a deep devotion to an obscure religion. Angie is a pious devotee of Atua, and is willing to provide for the spiritual needs of her classmates. She loves mentioning unusual habits and customs from her island home, such as blood sacrifices and orgies. Hardly anything fazes her, this nonchalance and ignorance being considered sinister by some of her peers. Even with the best intentions in mind, she sometimes used religion to get what she wanted.

Add: Angie owns four horses (named War, Famine, Pestilence and Death) that Hope’s Peak allowed her to keep in school (for some reason). Their stables were located at the student/staff parking lot.

Close friend/s: Korekiyo, Tenko, Himiko

Great Gozu: The former Ultimate Wrestler is now the homeroom teacher of Class 79A. Despite his intimidating physique, he is gentle, patient and very supportive. He becomes quickly attached to class 79A and is quite protective of them.

--

And now for the romantic relationships~ (I inadvertently retconned some stuff from the HPA AU comics in the fanfic version apparently, I’m not very good at slow burn lol)

Kaede//Kirumi: Both of them are altruistic, though one is out of pure selflessness while the other due to moral obligation. Kaede is the first to develop a crush on the other, mostly out of physical attraction but it’s Kirumi that first falls in love between the two of them. Kirumi is mostly drawn to Kaede’s comforting presence and empathic nature, and is impressed with the pianist’s diligence in perfecting her musical craft. Kaede admires the maid’s dedicated work ethic, and is very enamored with Kirumi’s elegance and grace. Kaede’s considerate nature holds her back from pursuing Kirumi head-on out of respect for the maid’s seemingly unshakeable adherence to her creed of selfless devotion, while Kirumi struggles internally in balancing her whims and sticking to her creed. This results in them tiptoeing around their feelings towards each other.

Shuichi//Kokichi: One lies while the other exposes the truth. Kokichi, despite his growing interest on the detective, denies his feelings. Shuichi, initially unconfident about his chances with the supreme leader, takes the leap and reveals his feelings first. Kokichi is drawn to Shuichi’s intelligence, good-natured personality and cute face (and he may or may not have a detective kink). Shuichi is drawn to Kokichi’s complex personality, considering it a mystery puzzle only he could solve. Both Kokichi and Shuichi suffer from insecurities that the other deserve better than themselves; Kokichi believes Shuichi wouldn’t fall for him because of his complicated personality while Shuichi thinks Kokichi was in love with the more appealing Kaito, somewhat resigned he has no chance.

Kaito//Maki: Polar opposites and yet both hide the same thing; one relies on outward emotion to hide a weakness while the other represses emotion to hide a weakness. Kaito is greatly drawn to Maki’s independent and capable mindset but struggles with his own sexist mindset. Maki falls for Kaito’s endearing personality, but struggles to make sense of her romantic feelings. Eventually, they both overcome their weaknesses. Maki is the first to fall for the other, and while she is also the one to confess her feelings first, it was Kaito who first changed his ways, learning to be less sexist. Maki avoids Kaito when her feelings toward him intensified, but this unfazed the astronaut and remained wooing her consistently.

Tenko//Himiko: Polar opposites that balance each other out. Tenko and Himiko may have been the first pair to be immediately drawn to each other but they are the last pair to be officially together. Tenko’s more active lifestyle gets Himiko to reconsider her lethargic nature while Himiko’s relaxed attitude grounds Tenko’s overactive nature. Tenko was drawn to Himiko from the get-go, and while the smaller girl was initially annoyed by the aikido master being insistent, she eventually warms up to her. They subsequently act like girlfriends, but surprisingly their ‘official’ get together doesn’t happen til later.

[others to be added lol]

[golden-redhead]

I remember once you said that Kaede has better dynamics with Kaito and Kokichi than Shuichi based on their character and actions in the game. I kind of disagree? It's just my personal preference but I feel all 3 of a trio being so similar isn't that much interesting? I have the same problem with survivor trio as well, all 3 of them are quiet reserved characters who changed during the game. /1/

Kaito/Kaede/Kokichi would be 3 characters who put a facade to hide their insecurities or personal struggles and helped their friends in their own way. Sure in both trios all 3 characters are so different, but I feel a outgoing character was needed in the survivor trio. /2/

Shuichi is more interesting to be with Kaito/Kokichi IMO since unlike them, he's a cautious quiet guy who always portrays himself less than what he actually is, and feels he always needs someone. What do you think? /3 end/

- To be totally honest with you, Anon, I tried to think about when I said that or why I said that and I came up with nothing, so it’s a bit difficult for me to discuss it since I have literally no context XD I’m sorry, I can be very forgetful when it comes to things like that and sometimes I change my mind, so it’s just. Kinda difficult to explain it in relation to what I said before. So I’m sorry if my answer isn’t what you hoped it would be. I just don’t have the full picture here. My life is also kind of a mess right now and I feel too mentally exhausted to like, be a good conversation partner, I’m afraid. I’ll do my best tho. 

Hm, I think Kaede has better dynamics with them in a sense that she’s more active than Shuichi who tends to stand on the sidelines, unlike Kaede who tends to put herself out there. Both Kokichi and Kaito kind of dominate their interactions with Shuichi and he’s fine with that and simply lets them do that and in that sense Kaede is much more interesting because she has rather strong opinions about things and can be just as stubborn as the two of them. From that perspective I really enjoy their interactions because they’re never boring and also very action-oriented as opposed to the ones with Shuichi during which he’s the observer and doesn’t interact with them in a more direct way. Both options have their advantages and I honestly like both dynamics as well as any possible combinations of them. I am also personally totally fascinated with the similarities between Kokichi, Kaito and Kaede, their roles in the game and also personalities and I’m not gonna lie, I could spend hours discussing it in more detail because it’s just the kind of shit I’m really into. If all three of them were to interact I feel like they’d clash horribly but it’d be absolutely fascinating to watch. Especially since they all had very similar goals and what is different is the methods they use to obtain it which in my eyes is a very interesting concept especially considering that all of them ultimately end up dead. But I think it really might be a personal thing? Like, I’m just very into the concept of narrative foils and the ‘two sides of the same coin’ thing.  

Now, I’m a huge Saioumota fan (like, I am literally running Saioumota Week this year), so I obviously enjoy the ship and their interactions. The whole dynamic is very appealing from my point of view because they balance each other out perfectly when you put all three of them together and have the potential to be healthy and healthy polyamory in general is one of my favorite things in fiction when it comes to romance. 

So it’s kind of like... when it comes to analyzing stuff I just love Kaede/Kaito/Kokichi dynamic because of their roles in the story, but when it comes to shipping and just enjoying the relationship Saioumota is my jam. 

Does that make sense? God, I hope it does.

Also, as for the surviving trio thing, i really couldn’t agree more. It’s not that I hate the surviving trio or anything, it’s just... They are not only not the characters I wanted to survive but I also feel like they really could have used some more energy, for me the last chapter was just kind of boring and lacked personality (if you can say that abt a chapter, lol, sorry, I am really tired). I really liked the end of the previous game because even if I wasn’t a big fan of all of the survivors they were still an interesting bunch and the way they interacted with all the plot twists and revelations was engaging and fun because of how different they were. The fact that we had more survivors also helped a lot. I’m all for V3 survivors supporting each other post-game and learning how to grow but as a fan of more cynical approach I can easily see them giving up and isolating themselves due to their personalities and the fact that we’ve seen it happen in the game. 

Anyways, sorry for my rambling and I hope it’s at least a little bit coherent xd’’
