Chapter 1, I assume?
“Ultimate Revival” is this still the Prologue?
We’re...in the locker again?
Deja vu all over again...
This is...playing out exactly as it did before...
I wonder what Kaede knew about the Monokubs...and Ransaru knew about the situation? I get the feeling neither of them will remember now.
Shuichi again...but Kaede’s response to him freaking out is different?
Now she has piano memories...
and the Monokubs again?
This time I’m assuming Monophanie actually gave them their “first memories” and the Exisals won’t show up till later. Right?
“We’re not Monkubs! We’re the stuffed animals!” no you fucked up that line. do over, do-over!
I have a hunch these seeming 4th-wall breaking lines are gonna have some hidden importance...
And now that she has her first memory, Kaede doesn’t know who the Monokubs are. As I thought.
What I’m getting so far is that Ultimates are being hunted down, and so the Ultimates somehow developed amnesia and possible fake memories to help hide themselves from whoever’s behind the Ultimate Hunt. I wonder if Kaede will remember being kidnapped in this new version of events? Prolly not.
The Ultimate Academy for Gifted Juveniles? Definitely not Hope’s Peak then.
The school was founded specifically for the cast. Who founded it? Monokuma?
“activity” yeah that is gonna be pleasant >.<
Hmmm. I wonder...first memory...implying a second memory and onwards, right?
Introductions are a go!
Awww, Kaede was so cute as a baby! But...
I can’t help wonder which memories are real and which aren’t. The music is called “Beautiful Lie”...you advance trials through lying...lies are definitely a central theme of this game. The memories of a normal girl with no special talents...the memories of a skilled piano player...which set of memories are real and which are fake? Are either of them the truth, for that matter?
What the fuck was that?!
Kaede, asleep, with some manner of machine hooked up to her brain? Is this...a vision of what’s happening right now, or a memory of losing her memories, or...?
And instead of a hope fragment, we get a friendship fragment.
And here’s our menu interface!
The monopad.
Kaede’s profile: She’s a blood type O, likes piano keys, and dislikes bicycles.
Shuichi likes novels, and dislikes gossip...strange dislike for a detective.
There’s a second classroom and a concert hall here. Classroom first.
Nope, classroom is locked.
Music room is locked too.
Oh here’s the Monokubs again.
Ultimate Research Lab?
Ah, a personal room besides the dormroom. For honing your talents...
But a bunch of the other labs are...hidden.
And these rooms aren’t ready yet.
A bronze dragon statue that seems awfully suspicious, and...this girl? Was she the cosplayer, or what?
Yup, she’s the Ultimate Cosplayer, Tsumugi Shirogane.
Kaede please stop hitting on her what the hell girl
Yeah the statue is clearly suspicious.
KAEDE stop hitting on her for fuck’s sake
OK, Tsumugi likes EVA foam (is that an NGE thing?) and dislikes disorderly queues.
That’s the third floor. Now for the second.
Check the bathrooms...yeah the plants everywhere are unsettling.
No way to get to the dorms for now.
Let’s check near the kitchen...Rantaro’s hanging around the hallways there.
Woah, after bringing up amnesia, Rantaro’s face got all scary...
“It’s not like...I already told you, but then I forgot I did, right?” Well...
Likes: Extraterritorial rights. Dislikes: cars. What?
Let’s check out the school store! Nope, it’s locked. Cafeteria then?
Locked during night-time...sounds about right.
Magician girl and Neo-...akido? master are here, too.
Himiko Yumeno, Ultimate Mage. Well, Ultimate Magician.
She likes small spaces, dislikes the ocean.
And now th- holy shit don’t yell like that
Neo-Aikido. That was it.
Tenko Chabashira, the Ultimate Aikido Master.
Kaede’s still hitting on the ladies...
Tenko’s making the face! She’s making the face!
Likes: nunchucks. Dislikes: Men. Well yeah I kinda got that she hates men yeah
There’s a kitchen here according to the demo, but we can’t get to it right now.
What’s inside classroom A on the other side of floor 2?
Oh, it’s Supreme Leader and K1B0!
Keebo...which just so happens to be Japanese for hope, right?
K1B0, the Ultimate Robot, and Kokichi Oma, the Ultimate Supreme Leader.
Professor Idabashi was the scientist who created Keebo and gave him a “strong AI”.
I’m glad they kept that question about robot anatomy from the demo. Pffft.
Kokichi’s true talent: the Ultimate Little Shit.
Kokichi likes carbonated drinks and dislikes pig’s feet. Keebo likes 100-24o volts of electricity, and dislikes vending machines.
Creepy basement time...
There’s a library...and it is musty and freaky. Two people in here. The caretaker first...wait the other person is just Shuichi. OK, nevermind about two people.
Maki Harukawa....Ultimate Child Caregiver. And not a particularly friendly person. Once our conversation was done, she GTFO’d.
Apparently she likes morning lake shores, and dislikes winter lake shores.
There’s a door down the basement hall that opens up into a wall, or rather doesn’t open up. Weird and suspicious. The other door in the hallways leads back into the library.
The final door here is a game room. With the tennis player inside.
Ryoma Hoshi, Ultimate Tennis Pro. He likes the Russian blues, dislikes whitetip reef sharks, and killed several members of the mafia. And then went to jail for it. Somehow, he ended up here, though. He claims he didn’t need a future anymore, and that’s why he killed the mafia players even though he knew he’d go to jail. Does his not having a future have anything to do with the Ultimate Hunt, I wonder...?
Inside the game room is a locked door to another room. The same room that the unopenable door in the hallways leads to, it looks like. Back up to the second floor. No wait, this is the first floor. Weird. I thought we started on the third floor?
There’s a door here with a strange othello-like pattern. I’m guessing it’s another Ultimate Lab, and it’s possible the room behind the game room is yet another, but “hidden”.
This way is the gym...but we still haven’t met all the students. I gotta look for a place I haven’t been before, then.
Trying to go into the gym is futile, anyways - it’s locked. But Shuichi is starting to feel a strange sense of deja vu...As he should.
Ah, we haven’t been to the warehouse yet! Inventor girl is here.
Yeah she’s full of innuendo...
Miu Iruma, the Ultimate Inventor...she invented a new type of contact lens but she thought it was pointless since it didn’t improve productivity while sleeping, which all her inventions she cares about do. She signed the rights away like a total idiot and that was that.
She needs meds, huh? Yeah, that doesn’t surprise me. *sweatdrop*
...ooooooor she wants to get high as fuck off of them...
You...you don’t have balls in the first place, girl...
hey Kaede, if she can’t use drugs to get high, what do you suggest she use to get high?
Also Shuichi is strangely defensive about his hat...is he bald underneath it or something?
Miu likes children’s TV and hates taking it easy.
Huh, after going to the gym and not being able to enter, the dorms are now accessible.
And the anthropology guy comes outta nowhere
Korekiyu Shinguji, Ultimate Anthropologist. But call him Kiyo.
Right, as I said before, I think this guy might be the Nagito of this game.
Kiyo likes straw ropes and dislikes air conditioning.
Hey, the door does lead outside...but not to the dorms?
This is weird...we can see the outside world, but I feel like they can’t see us...
According to the Monokubs, who showed up again, this is the End Wall.
It represents...the end of the world...?
No matter how much we scream...no one can hear us. It’s as I thought then...the outside world cannot see the place we’re in...even if it’s right in front of their own eyes.
The Exisals are working on renovations? The robots?
How can a robot have a wife and kids. Yeah this guy is BSing.
Ah, there’s the dorms. And astronaut boy!
Kaito Momota, Ultimate Astronaut. He likes house plants and dislikes the occult.
Further down this area, there’s a ninja statue, and the bug guy. There’s also a red door. Could that be...?
“Shrine of Judgement”
This is the courtroom, then?
And also the ultimate artist.
Angie Yonaga, Ultimate Artist and devout worshiper of a god named Atua. She likes avocados and dislikes humidity.
Now to backtrack and talk to bug guy.
Gonta Gokuhara, Ultimate Entomologist. He speaks Tarzan-like and aspires to be a gentleman. As a kid, he got lost in the woods while looking for bugs and wasn’t found for 10 years, hence his style of speech. Oh, and because of that he was raised by wolves. Gonta can speak to bugs and animals because of this.
And...there’s no bugs on the school grounds. Weird...
Shuichi mentioned not liking bugs. That was a mistake. Gonta scary when Gonta angry.
Gonta likes arthropods and dislikes bananas.
That leaves only the maid, who must be in the dorms.
Yup, there she is. But we gotta deal with the Monokubs first.
Yup, we gotta live here.
Kirumi Tojo, the Ultimate Maid. She claims to have no desires or opinions of her own, existing to fulfill the desires of others. Wow.
The bell!
The monitor shows the Monokubs on a couch, in a room decorated with tiny figurines of the Ultimates.
To the gym, then!
Oh, and Kirumi likes cleaning and dislikes taking days off.
Well, next time we’ll go to the gym and see the opening ceremony!
