My piece for the @akeshuakeauzine!

The Danganronpa V3 AU that's been silently brewing in my head for a long while already. A bit of info on the AU (and Akiren's design) under the cut.

Spoilers for NDRV3!

Akiren is the Ultimate Leader who is trying his best to unite the group together, while Akechi poses as the Ultimate Detective but gets quickly revealed as the Ultimate Assassin.

The storyline starts with Kasumi as the main character, so the first trial ends with her execution and the subsequent shift to Sumire as the main character. Akiren quickly befriends her and most of the cast in general, running himself ragged with trying to provide support and stop others from making fatal mistakes. Fails, obviously.

Akechi is cordial at first, but during the first trial turns out to be much more ruthless than he appeared. After being exposed for lying about his talent he drops most of his pretending and keeps to himself, pushing away Akiren and Sumire's attempts at trying to understand him. He is quick to realise the killing game they're trapped in is a TV show, but due to his lack of trust in anyone he follows the same path as Ouma in the original game. He becomes antagonistic and arranges a murder to try and crush the killing game later.

Akechi and Akiren's story ends the same way Ouma and Momota's does in Chapter 5: with them unexpectedly uniting in secret to defy the Game, Akechi sacrificing himself to keep Akiren alive, and Akiren pretending to be him during the trial, but refusing to let his friends die at the very end, dying himself instead.

And they wake up because it was a Virtual Reality. Bc I'm too soft-hearted. I can't deal with it. Sorry <3

But it's also important to the backstory on how Akechi joined the show: Akechi was a new TV idol under Shido's company, completely manufactured to eventually promote Danganronpa by joining a new season. He agrees on condition that he will play the role of the mastermind, so that he could retain his original memories and use it to expose and ruin the series and the entire studio with it. Shido agrees, but when the time comes Akechi's memories get wiped and he finds himself as just one of the many participants. The real mastermind is Mishima. Bc I think it's very amusing and ironic, and he fits the role of a fanboy perfectly. + Whatever is going on between Mishima and Akechi in this AU bc of that is hilarious to me.

Oh, and here is Akiren's full height design bc I like it a lot:

Anw this AU is my baby and secretly an oumota propaganda.

outfits for shuake roleswap au!

see this post if you wanna see a proper drawing with it!

shuake week 2024 day 1: roleswap AU

they call blackmask ren ‘hat guy’ because it’s his most distinguishing feature (nah bc it’s goofy just like scaramouche)

i have thought A LOT about this au, including their personas

blackmask (hat guy) joker has odin (loki’s counterpart), and prince joker has arsène (i changed the design a little though)

leader of the thieves crow has merlin

and now have a sketch dump with notes:

explaining the choices i made/thought process when coming up with the designs and personas, and arsène’s design lol

i was considering a red outfit for (prince) joker, but went with blue so it could be more refreshing! and also because he is reflecting goro (and to a degree naoto)

red is passionate, bold, and angry (righteously angry). blue is calm, collected, intelligent.

akechi’s colour feels blue, he wears a blue vest on his casual outfit, his blackmask outfit is blue and black, and robin hood has blue in his design. in the 3rd semester his true self is calmer and much more reserved. true he does kind of go chaotic in the metaverse but he’s blue.

BUT his prince outfit is red and white, like a reflection of joker’s but white instead of black. akechi sees rebellion as passionately wanting to uphold justice. he wants to reflect the passion in joker’s red

so roleswap au, of course that’s reversed! two sides same coin all that jazz

maybe detective prince akechi wants to come across as more passionate (about justice) than he might seem or feel. and maybe detective prince amamiya wants to seem calmer and more intelligent than he might seem or feel.

[pinkcasket]

imagine this if joker wasn't a member of the phantom thieves. a mildly popular celebrity shows up in your coffee shop and just begins talking about how much he wants a rival and he's so lonely and he really loves this coffee and also his dad fucking sucks.

GOD I ALWAYS FORGET HOW FUCKING WILD OF A CHARACTER AKECHI IS. DUDE WHY ARE YOU MONOLOGUING ABOUT FINDING A WORTHY RIVAL TO A FUCKING BARISTA.

[kariuskae]

Trapped!AU designs + AU hc/notes (tldr; Where Joker gets trapped in the metaverse due to a deal with Yaldy and ends up losing his memory. Akechi also becomes leader of the PT)

[leonawriter]

Shuake roleswap soulmates AU (that I may or may not do something with) where they can only summon their soulmate's Persona until they've actually met.

So, it's actually closer to a roleswap accomplice route, because Akira - with Loki - pushes himself into Shido's circle because of all these thoughts and feelings he knows are from someone else, who he's never met but can feel in his soul (literally) that doing this is important. He can't back down.

Akechi, who's encouraged by Arséne to be better, reminded that someone out there would burn the world for him, becomes the kind of person who'd become the hero he dreamed about being for his mother.

Akira sees Akechi fighting in Madarame's palace and feels Arséne in the distance, feels Loki straining to reach Akechi.

They don't swap back over - Akechi hears about the "Black Mask" and isn't sure how to feel, having become accustomed to Arséne and the person he's become. Having a sense of who your soulmate is, is one thing. Coming to the realisation that they've committed real crimes (that you yourself might have done in their place) for you, is another entirely.

Robin Hood, who'd been with Akira and had been a reassurance that Akira's soulmate was worth doing all of this for, is the one who goes back to Akechi's heart. Not so much a reminder that his soulmate isn't a fully bad person if Robin could be in his soul as well as Akechi's, but a proof that Akechi himself wouldn't have just been a bad guy if things had been "normal."

This leaves Akira with just Loki, but by this point they're getting to know each other, Akira seeing what Arséne is like, making a point of not being too antagonistic with the Thieves, so that by the time November comes around sure he may not feel safe enough to be honest but he's on far better terms with them all.

The Thieves figure out that Akira is the Black Mask. Akechi figures out that Akira is is soulmate (and that in another world, it would have been him). The Thieves are conflicted, and Akira and Akechi start to flirt more than ever while not feeling sure if making it a real thing would be safe, or even a good idea.

Except then Akira actually does help Akechi out in the interrogation room, and then when they meet on Shido's ship later, it's by the entrance... and that's when the others get to see them swap over.

Akechi, the leader of the Phantom Thieves, gets Loki and the infamous black mask, while Akira, the one who they've been so scared of, takes "Akechi's" Arséne and white opera mask.

Saiki K Week Day 1: Swap AU

I've seen the popular Saiki-Teruhashi swap AU but I've never seen anyone swap all the characters for this AU.

Basically, all of the female characters switch places with a male character.

Teruhashi and Saiki swap powers.

Chiyo and Kaidou swap places as chuunibyous.

Mera becomes the Nendo of the group.

Aiura takes Toritsuka's place as Teruhashi's apprentice.

Hii is the moral support of the friend group in place of Hairo.

Makino somehow became a gang leader like Kuboyasu.

And Imu is Teruhashi's childhood friend instead of Akechi.

I dont write a lot of fics but this idea has been in my head for a while. I might make it a full-fledged story.

[gavalaa]

Sketches of all my redone designs for my Phantom Thieves from my AU, Icarus! Lots of info down below on the cut, so if you want to know more about the details and inspiration, feel free to keep reading!

This includes Akechi’s design for his Princely/Robin Hood attire, BEFORE his Icarus attire you might have seen from my other posts! Check out the Icarus AU tag for more info! Icarus has a main focus on Akechi and his relationship to the thieves, but the AU is actually an entire rewrite with new designs, 3rd semester and epilogue/strikers/tactica stories, hence Zenkichi and Sophia’s inclusion.

Read below for individual info:

I decided to include more motifs towards their persona’s and general vibes; and also just my own personal touches haha.

AKIRA - Not much has changed, I really like his design overall. I raised his boots to be like Arsene’s and changed his neck area.

MORGANA - I hate the OG pill shaped head, his new design is based heavily on the shape of Palico’s from Monster Hunter. Added a little more nod to Zorro/His persona motifs and also just made him cuter! Little hamburger headed cat.

RYUJI - I made him a little bulkier and gave some more weight to his outfit overall. I gave him heavier boots and a slightly buffer build to relate back more to his sporty style.

ANN - honestly was never too big on her latex outfit, I wanted to call back to a personal favorite female lead; Christine Daae, and used one of the versions of her Don Juan costume as inspiration. I remember seeing Phantom live and in many stage versions of her character, the Don Juan scene was a pure moment of female control, and she was truly working the Phantom and controlling every movement on the stage. Her presence is commanding, and I thought it was a very fitting tribute to Ann’s character as feminine strength. (I’m absolutely not referring to the movie iteration of Daae btw.)

YUSUKE - I referred to some historical art and legend of Goemon to add more elements of design to his outfit. When I color them, I want to add some really strong pops of color to his clothing to really drive the aesthetics and artistry home.

MAKOTO - Another totally redid outfit, I opted to give her a design which relates back to Popess Joan, and also Anat. I gave her a clawed hand on her right side and an uncovered hand on her left as both a nod to Anat’s hand raised in iconography of her from art history, but also to show the duality of Anat’s title as both a goddess of war, and of love. It also relates to the mythology of Joan and her nature as both a leader and a martyr. I changed her mask to a Venetian Commedia mask as well.

FUTABA - ok. I’ll be honest. I never liked her skin-tight outfit, it just doesn’t match her personality at all. Also, the high tech Egyptian feel never really sold me. I totally understand the tomb thing, but I truthfully think a dungeon/palace which was more like… tech/nerd themed would have been much more “futaba” the inspiration for this new outfit relates back to her persona, the Necromomicon, as well as her nerdy personality, and her affiliation as Alibaba (Ali Baba.) I wanted to go more lovecraftian, long sleeves and patterning designed to look more like lovecraftian tendrils, and big baggy pants and her classic shoes to match. The patterning on her undershirt will resemble a rib cage, both as a reference to her deathly “tomb” iconography, but also to Lovecraftian and Necronomicon lore. I think she matches the description of a nerdy, techie DND dungeon master more than the initial outfit, so that’s the route I took personally.

HARU - relating back to some fashions from 17th c France, where Milady’s story (the three musketeers) takes place, I kept her design relatively similar. I just gave her a little more iconography relating to the three musketeers and that general timeframe.

AKECHI - in his pre-Icarus outfit, I’ve given him a princely sort of outfit befitting of his two faced nature, and edited it to relate to Robin Hood a little more. I tried to keep it sleek and just generally very concealing and layered.

SUMIRE - i gave her some iconography relating back to one of her personas, who is an inference to Freya. I also included some more nods to classic Cinderella, with fantasy gown elements. Overall, relatively similar.

ZENKICHI - again, relatively similar, I really like his outfit. I just opened up the face some to show more personality and spiced up the outfit generally to keep it matching. honestly, les mis/Valjean was a hard one, but I also think his character could be heavily related back to Edmond Dante (Monte Cristo.) so I gave some nods to that as well.

SOPHIA - I turned her into a FINGIE!!!! I made her whole dress as a nod to her persona/to pandora’s tiles around her/the pillars. I wanted to make her small and almost unnatural since she’s an AI, and I thought having a little guy on the team would add some more variation.

[taitavva]

yaldabaoth couldn't help but make his whole team overpowered huh ... how are the phantom thieves supposed to survive ?? "oh noo akechi ur so hot haha .. please don't kill me" brilliant strategy pego (entire ask under cut)

[ACTUALLY UR PUTFITS WERE SO ON POINT. I HAVE 2 OUTFIT IDEAS 4 HIFUMI & SHIHO (MINUS MASKS) & 1 mask idea for yuuki but idk what else. i was thinking for the leaders it would def be chaotic but goro has most metaverse experience so hes the leader. ken kinda acts like mona in giving useful tips abt personas etc and hifumi takes on the role of makoto where she gives out different strategies (her, ken, & goro debate over these tips & strategies but usually end up doing them anyway). I have an urge to show u these outfits omg. i can ramble abt these outfits & their personas for forever .. i chose jormungandr for yuuki, skadi for shiho hela for hifumi, and persephone for eiko. ik its not very in the literacy scene for them to all have deities as personas but... goro breaks it with loki anyway, so ..

explainations:: hela & jormungandr are 2/6 of loki's kids in norse mythology, aiding him in the ragnarok/end of the world, and hela is sentenced down to the underworld to be the goddess of that realm since she was born half alive half dead, and she's sentenced to it by odin (basically. kinda the zeus of norse mythology, like the "king" of all of them) because she's the daughter of loki & all this other stuff .. chose her for hifumi because hifumi's mom basically forces her to be a shoji star after hifumi's dad and yeah. jormungandr i chose because hes kinda just a sleepy little guy: in norse mythology he's known as "the World Serpent" and he wraps around the entire ocean with his tail in his mouth kind of in a constant sleep until the ragnarok (all of loki's kids --aside from 2, one being dead & the other being a gift to odin-- including loki himself, are kinda trapped somewhere before the ragnarok happens) and he's not talked about a lot but he aids in so much and he's important (like how yuuki is kind of ignored by the pts, the dialogue options being horrid, despite him aiding in them. also yuuki is the bm's navi in the au & he runs a "revenge site" like how Strega/takaya sakaki, jin shirato, & chidori yoshino do in p3-- strega also does death calling cards , mainly shown in the novels which is p cool.. first ppl to use mental shutdowns despite not beinf called that then either. i love strega sorry. they all agreed to it because shiho wanted to deal with more people like kamoshida, goro wanted to deal with more people like shido, hifumi wanted to deal w more people like her mom, etc).. i chose persephone for eiko because in greek mythology, persephone is (most commonly accepted form of the myth) kidnapped by hades and forced into marriage with him by eating a pomegranate out of the underworld .. point blank, persephone reminds me of eiko being trapped and persephone's shown to overcome it , ( honestly eventually making the underworld & hades her Bitch. she kills the goddess/nymph of mints and creates the mint plant because she got too handsy with hades).. also hifumi and eiko are a little gay for eachother so why not have their personas be, too? anyway. SHIHO!! i chose skadi for her because skadi , in norse mythology , is both jotunn (giant) and a god like how loki is, but she's an accepted form of it because she was given over to the gods as a peace treaty, and thats pretty important to norse mythology i'd say (like how rooftop scene is important to kamoshida arc), and skadi claws up the aesir (council of gods) thru both her marriage (ann? ann. hehe.) and her own sheer will (shiho's recovery and goro's ..... questionable aid.) and skadi just fits. the goddess of mountains and winter? sign me the FUCK UP.

Anyway . this was long I apologise]

[triphantoms]

Wuh oh! Something went wrong, role swap au time!

Akechi is now a therapist, Maruki is now the leader of the Phantom Thieves, Joker is now a gymnast, and Sumi is now a detective!

How chaotic is it?

And follow up question, if you had to choose a different role, what would you pick?

-💫

Out of everyone here to be a therapist, you pick me? Is your head on straight? I can guarantee that is not a good idea. I think I'd be a great phantom thieves leader.

- Akechi 🐦‍⬛

Being the leader of a whole bunch of kids seems interesting. I'm honestly just fine being an ex-therapist though.

- Maruki 🍎

I wanna be a detective... Being a gymnast still seems fun, though.

- Joker 🃏

That seems fun! I'll take that one.

- Sumire ❤️

Preview of the piece I did for @akeshuakeauzine! I took this opportunity to work on my dearly treasured Danganronpa V3 AU, with Joker as the Ultimate Leader and Akechi as the Ultimate Detective (allegedly). You can check out the full art on April 28th!

[crystalmemoria]

I just realized I've never talked about my Royal Trio Roleswap AU here. It was something I started on a whim, but I've grown pretty fond of it even if it isn't anywhere near concrete yet.

Sumire is in Ren's role, Akechi is in Sumire's role, and Ren is in Akechi's role. This makes much more sense in context I assure you.

Putting this under "Keep reading" to avoid spoiling too much for people that don't know Persona 5 Royal and to save space.

Sumire is grappling with Kasumi's death, and due to unforeseen circumstances her appointment with Maruki had to be canceled so she never got actualized. She struggles with being a leader at first, but grows into the role as she gains more confidence and makes more bonds. She ends up being able to move past her guilt, and learns to love herself.

Akechi had a chance encounter with Maruki before his revenge plans were actually started, and Maruki's powers kicked in and made him forget the revenge plans entirely, locking him into pleasant mode. This has a massive ripple effect on the rest of the AU, and Akechi finds himself grappling with random bouts of pettiness he doesn't understand and a feeling he's supposed to be doing something very important.

Ren still has the encounter with Shido, but thanks to tech involving cognitive psience having progressed further (Thanks to Wakaba being alive later in the timeline than normal), Shido was able to learn that Ren had some kind of special thing about him, and he approached Ren with a deal involving throwing out the charges in exchange for his assistance. Ren had no idea what he was actually getting into, and now seeks revenge even as he's stuck going along with Shido's plans.

There's more, but this is the basic gist of it!

I've had a LOT of help with this AU though, the Shuake Official server has multiple people that helped me flesh it out when I was super stuck, so thank you!
