#Danganronpa 3 hope arc characters series#

However, it would seem that this arc suffers even more from the pacing issues of its predecessor and might feel somewhat disjointed due to its balancing act of slice-of-life with the drama that provokes its namesake.Дespite its issues, this arc handles the Danganronpa 2 cast rather well (even though theyвЂ™re shown at a minimum) and sets up the events of the series in a way that some may find fascinating while others emerge unsatisfied. Yasuhiro Hagakure and Byakuya Togami are both seen at a minimum thanks to their exclusion from the killing game, but they both appear more than Toko Fukawa who is still accompanying Komaru Naegi in the dystopic Towa City from Ultra Despair Girls.Дespair Arc takes place within the HopeвЂ™s Peak High School we all know and love, but itвЂ™s largely set in areas inaccessible to players during the games and features the cast from the second game so if youвЂ™re like a lot of fans who enjoyed the chemistry between the 77th class, you might feel right at home. Makoto Naegi is hope incarnate, Kyoko Kirigiri is the enigmatic detective we all know and love, and Aoi Asahina is given a significant amount of development when compared to her status in Trigger Happy Havoc. In Future Arc, your favorite survivors from the first game are each given a significant role to play, though none are particularly surprising given their personas to date. Because of the limited scope of the series, there are characters who unfortunately didnвЂ™t receive the development that fans would have wanted them to, like the вЂњUltimate FarmerвЂќ Daisaku Bandai or the вЂњUltimate WrestlerвЂќ known as the Great Gozu, but thatвЂ™s honestly to be expected given the nature of the medium. If you enjoyed the way that each of the seriesвЂ™ entries up until now handled its wide and varied, yet somewhat relatable cast, then youвЂ™ll probably enjoy the way new characters are introduced in Future Arc and expanded upon in Despair Arc, especially when it comes to the trio of childhood friends Ruruka Ando (or the вЂњUltimate ConfectionerвЂќ), Sonosuke Izayoi (or the вЂњUltimate BlacksmithвЂќ) and Seiko Kimura (or the вЂњUltimate Pharmacist) and their small arc towards the middle of the series.

So, the question stands - why should you watch Danganronpa 3: The End of HopeвЂ™s Peak High School? ItвЂ™s understandable that some may be confused by the naming conventions, but all you should know is that while Danganronpa 3 ends the current story, New Danganronpa V3 will start a new, seemingly unrelated story with new locations and characters (with the exception of Monokuma, of course). It should be noted that the current anime series couldnвЂ™t be further from the upcoming game New Danganronpa V3, despite both having a вЂ3вЂ™ in the title. However, it needs to be said that the series, divided into two halves (Future Arc, focusing on the events following the second game and Despair Arc, following the cast of the second game before the events of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc), contains many spoilers for the games that are currently available for both PS Vita and PC, and as such should not be viewed without having experienced both of the main titles and its spinoff, Ultra Despair Girls: Danganronpa Another Episode. Now, nearly twelve weeks and many delays later, Danganronpa 3: The End of HopeвЂ™s Peak High School is finally nearing its finale, and itвЂ™s also coincidentally the best time to begin watching if you havenвЂ™t already. Plagued with criticism regarding its poor pacing, it was believed that there was no chance that the second entry of the murder mystery series would get the anime treatment until it was announced that the summer 2016 season would feature not only one, but two different seriesвЂ™ bringing the HopeвЂ™s Peak High School series to its despairing end. Shortly following the final episode of Danganronpa: the Animation, hopes were high that the second game, Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair would receive the adaptation it so clearly deserved.
