I’ve decided to just pretend 98% of DR3 never happened because the writing was such a mess, but I’m kind of okay with that ending even though rationally I know it was a disaster. One of the reasons I came to love Danganronpa so much was because its themes of hope and pushing forward no matter what have helped me deal with my depression and PTSD. So even if it was cheesy and kind of dumb, it resonated with me because it let those kids have the happiness they deserved. And if they can get their happy ending after everything they’ve been through, then so can I.
