THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The despair continues~

Kurogiri continuously tries to piece clues together while Naegi survives his encounter. I don't think Munakata was ready for what he had to encounter this episode though. Pretty tense episode, loved how they did some of the action sequences in the latter half and they kept it mostly uncensored.

Fights everywhere. That old guy is strong. The leader caught main guy just to get the person who want to use him to show up. He's either hope or despair is what the president guy meant.

Battle between two leaders to save the main guy. The programmer girl fights for the main guy. Young leader thought old one got old, but he's strong, so he asked for his thought. That green hair girl that controls from behind the monitor... looks like the kimono girl from Zetsubou-hen / 2nd game...

I knew it was more than a coincidence.

The fact that Gekkogahara was Monaca was actually revealed at the start of the fight, since the rockets she uses seem to have Monokuma eyes. Nice episode, hope we get to see the whole expulsion story in this week´s Zetsubo-hen

This episode was kind of dull tbh.

So, were Munakata and Yukizome lovers? It's pretty obvious they were very close especially by the way she put her head on his shoulder.

CALLED IT. KNEW IT. TOO OBVIOUS. OBVIOUS MONAKA WAS OBVIOUS.
I always knew this IS NOT the Monomi we knew! God it feels so good to be right..
i KNEW that foreshadowing in DR:AE's end credits wouldn't be meaningless

HAHA and you go Chairman! God do I love him. Nice beating up that shithead boxer!

WHAT THE FUCK MONAKA. Okay she looked like Gekkogahara but I wasnt expecting that it was really her. And her hair is tied up like Junko wtf. What an episode. Tengan is amazing and I dont suspect him anymore, I guess he is dying, if not he is in a pretty bad condition. Juuzo is always annoying af,can't he let them live please. So if Monaka is the mastermind maybe we'll see characters from DR:AE,it would be great.And Kazakura was definitely suspicious i wonder what he was doing. Can't wait til next week.

Its only episode 4 and Kodaka already revealed monaca? THE MOMENT I HEARD THE VOICE I ALREADY KNEW WHO IS IT. Is it too soon to reveal the traitor or is she some kind of accomplice? Hm.......... But seriously well played. 1st episode, monokuma change usami appearance to monomi, thinking she was innocent but it was a ploy

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

I know who Monaca is, but this is an anime discussion, not a game discussion. For people who haven't played the game, it's better not to spoil anything and let them find out who she is by watching the anime.

MONOKUMA THEATHER! YAY!
"Such an easy game..." RIGHT? Couldn't agree more, weirdly cartoon-ish Monokuma-san.
SAKAKURA BEATING UP OLD TEENAGERS, OLD AND DISABLED PEOPLE. YEP. HE IS CARTMAN. Guy has no chill. And his FA is not punching people, pretty much.
BUT HELL YEAH TENGAN! Unfortunately, he is going to die. As things are going the attacker doesn't need to do anything XD
Ow, I like Ryota, he is so cute. But, he wanting to be Naegi...well, I hope there is no plot twist here, I like the guy :) His scene with Kirigiri was weird too...hmmmm, maybe it is a red herring tho.
I'M SO HAPPY MUNAKATA IS NOT QUITE THE DUMB DUMB I WAS THINKING HE WAS! GOOD BOY! BUT HE STILL IS A FANATICAL DOUCHE. Tengan bringing up Chisa was sooooo on point.
So, Scout guy wanted to meet with Kirigiri. I would do the same thing. Maybe he was talking with someone on the monitor...who knows. Kirigiri's going to check Chisa's body, so maybe she is really dead.
And Ruruka, Seiko and Yaoi were all expelled from Hope's Peak. What happened I wanna know D:

IT
IS
FREAKING
MONAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
(THANKS NAGITO)
(I was wondering when and how she would appear)
(Scout guy was right)
(I knew Gekkogahara was suspicious, but never expected her to be a robot, Monaka's robot)

But, did she killed the original Gekkogahara and took her place or that person never existed? I think it is the former, but in DR we never know.

And:

Ok then xDDD

Maybe we can expect Komaru to appear? I really want to see Izuru and the rest of the Remnants of Despair too.

Anyway, at the start, Monokuma had a bracelet. Did he always have that? More clues to solidify that he's a participant I guess.

Also didn't play her game, since is only on PS Vita
Kodaka can't even count to 3...

If playing spin-off game is must, then this should be labeled as Danganronpa 4 not 3.

Another episode is just a spin off if you look at it in a gameplay perspective since it's story is extremely relevant to the DR franchise and part of the canon timeline

I'm just giving it Kingdom Hearts logic with sequels at this point.

Anyway I haven't played the spin off, heard about it and read into it and after seeing more about the character it is actually somewhat obvious that she was involved even before the reveal. I won't go into in-depth with it since there's people whom probably want to try the spinoff on their own. I'm just sad that i was -kinda- right that the wheelchair gal is the bad guy and more sad that she's just a robot!

Spin-offs extend story and world, so of course they often canon.
But they never should be important to understand main work.
If they do, then that means that they are no longer spin-offs, but part of main work. And that would pretty much make this anime Danganronpa 4.

Well, there's a character I definitely didn't miss. I didn't want to believe Gekkougahara was Monaca simply because I don't like Monaca at all... oh, well.

Sakakura is still a major idiot, Munakata seems to be finally getting a little of common sense, Tengan is the most badass grandpa I've seen in a while, I still suspect Mitarai a lot but he's adorable.

I don't hate her. I don't love her either tho. I think her plan on DR:AE was really despair inducing, I mean, it was actually really good. :D She was a good antagonist (she was the sad backstory antagonist, but still pretty good).
I hope she will bring lots of despair to us. Pupupupupupupupu~~~

AE is part of the main work, it's just not called "3" because of the different gameplay and perspective it offered

Monaca is extremely relevant to the tragedy and to what Junko's plan was, she is set up as the "next Junko" at the end of AE, wanting her not to appear in the final installment of the Hope's Peak saga is basically wanting a plot hole to manifest itself

So, Tengan will die? He is a pretty badass grandpa ;_; Sakakura and Munakata are still annoying ugh.

Nice cliffhanger. I literally beat that game a few days ago so seeing Monaca here is really crazy and gets me really excited. I even saw someone compare her to Miaya on reddit and it turns out to be true that she's controlling her. She also looks a lot better in anime form as well.

Anyways, this is just wishful thinking and I don't think it's possible but I wonder if Komaru is in the building as well and came unannounced. Who knows? Its chaotic enough to make it difficult to find everyone. Again...wishful thinking.

Good episode. Great cliffhanger. This season is far superior than the 1st season in every way. I had my doubts since I wasn't a big fan of the 1st season, glad I picked this one up.

Now please don't make me regret this later.

So you pretty much say that the author failed math class, since your speech still doesn't explain why this anime is called "3".
By logic 1->2->3 not 1->2->some other bullshit->3

Honestly, I just hope that they would somehow explain her existence here, without "go play game" route.

So much action in one episode. BLESS.

First of all, no one has mentioned how much of a BAMF Aoi was carrying Naegi over the stairs like it was nothing then sprinting to run away from Sakakura right afterwards. Ultimate Swimmer? She's close to being the Ultimate Athlete at this point.

Ryota is so adorable. I have found a new cinnamon roll. Please don't kill him. Pls
Tengan is one badass grandpa launching Sakakura like it was nothing. I'm so happy he was able to talk into some sense into Munakata, who I'm starting to understand but I still do not like.

So Ruruka, Seiko and Yoi were close friends back then? And they believe they got expelled because of the other? Now I'm MORE curious as to what went down. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think expulsion wasn't given much focus in the franchise and now we have THREE of them here. I want to know what went down between those three.

And lastly,

MONACA?!?!?! NOOOOO!!!! To think I was actually starting to not suspect Gekkougehara anymore Kodaka does this to me. Ugggggh

So many things I want to know more about. I can't wait for the next ep!
