Feel free to ignore my ramblings below, although I’m probably going to start posting frequently about a particular topic mentioned once another week or so has passed. If I can even have that much self-restraint in the first place, aha.

Gosh dangit, if I wasn’t so busy with commissions right now you can bet I’d be drawing fanart of a certain character from NDRV3 (New Danganronpa V3) that was like hands down my fricking favorite from that game.

THERE ARE NO SPOILERS FOR NDRV3 IN THIS POST. I WOULD OTHERWISE BE TAGGING IT. TRUST ME, I HATE SPOILERS AS MUCH AS ANYONE ELSE OKAY.

Also this character - who will go unmentioned for now - is definitely my second favorite character from the DR franchise as a whole?????? And possibly my fourth favorite fictional character right after Flowey??????? I can’t honestly tell, I’m still trying to sort out the overwhelming amount of feelings I have for this character. Please help me holy crap ajhsfdgdjfjdfdhjfhjdfjhdfjh LMAO. You can bet I WILL be posting a lot of stuff about this character though.

I’ve like considered cosplaying on and off, and this is also the first character where I actually some day want to make a real attempt at cosplaying (I’m too busy right now though, and tight on funds too, so, thanks effing refrigerator incident).

I mean the problem with cosplaying my top three favorite fictional characters (which, in order, are still Nagito Komaeda, Vaati, and Flowey) is that Komaeda is too fricking tall and I wouldn’t be able to pull him off convincingly. (Despite being 25, I am literally 4′11″ by the way. I am very short.) Plus I love his DRAE outfit a LOT more than I like his SDR2 one, and well... as rad as his neck-chain is, I’m sure that would get some weird looks in public.

If I were to cosplay someone, I’d want to be able to actually just wear it normally without people necessarily realizing/thinking I’m too weird. I don’t go to conventions, so... just random public shenanigans would be the only time I’d be wearing it. This is one of the main reasons I haven’t really bothered to cosplay before, despite having an interest in it - there’s literally not been much of a practical use beforehand / too expensive for something I can’t actually wear as an outfit.

And then there’s Vaati. Who, coming from The Legend of Zelda franchise, literally looks straight out of a medieval fantasy setting (as he should......), which... again, doesn’t really work well in public lmao. Plus I actually wouldn’t really want to cosplay him; as much as I like him and his design as a character, I don’t think I’d actually want to wear his outfit.

AND THEN there’s Flowey. Who is an actual flower and that would just be literally not possible to cosplay in a way that’s not really weird in public, so again... not very practical.

But this character from NDRV3 has a sort-of normal enough outfit that I could maybe get away with it in public. and also part of the outfit is 100% my aesthetic like holy crap, it’s something I would wear without it even being a part of a cosplay actually. like wow uhm?????

I just wholeheartedly fricking enjoyed / took a liking to / actually legitimately relate to this character and just????? In fact I liked NDRV3 so much I think it’s pretty much second to SDR2 for me in the franchise. (With Danganronpa/Zero being third now, since that was what was previously “second” ranked in DR for me.) I know I’ve got a bunch of games to play but I’m fricking going to replay the entire DR franchise because NDRV3 was just exceptional.

And I know some people hate the ending to NDRV3 but I fricking LOVED it. I won’t say anything, but I actually really just. Loved it wholeheartedly. And I love the developers. Like holy crap I just???? LOVE THIS EFFING FRANCHISE SO MUCH?????? WHY IS DANGANRONPA LITERALLY THE BEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN IN MY LIFE AHHHHHHH. There’s a reason it’s my favorite franchise/storyline of all time. I have so much affection for this series as a whole.

I’m having such a hard time forcing myself not to start spamming spoilers for the game, but I do want to give it some time before I start posting anything about it. (With a few tagged/read more’d exceptions. Anything I post with spoilers WILL be tagged.) HhhHHHhh and there’s also another character in NDRV3 besides my favorite from that game who was a close second and I just????? The character roster was great. There was only one character I actually didn’t like, and I would’ve liked this character except for this one aspect of them that makes me just personally really uncomfortable. I just. NDRV3 WAS SO GREAT AND I’M JUST. SO HAPPY. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE I LOVE THIS FRANCHISE AHHHHHHH.

So right now, my actual current order of top favorite characters from the DR franchise is as follows (and this is in order):

1. Nagito Komaeda (I still haven’t seen a character in which I’ve had AS dramatic a reaction to emotionally... he’s still just. 100% great I love him a lot okay and he’s still my favorite fictional character of all time)

2. THE CHARACTER THAT I HAVEN’T NAMED BUT IF YOU KNOW ABOUT NDRV3 AT ALL IT’S PROBABLY REALLY OBVIOUS SINCE I’VE ALREADY MENTIONED I LIKE FLOWEY A LOT FROM UNDERTALE + I LIKE KOMAEDA FROM DR SO IS IT REALLY THAT HARD TO FIGURE OUT LMAO I’M CRY.

(SPOILERS I’ll give you a hint in case you want to know: what’s better than stealing your life? your heart. ENDSPOILERS)

3. The other character that’s literally a close second to my actual favorite from NDRV3. please help me holy crap this game has wrecked me.

I don’t know how obvious this character is but I’ll give a hint in case anyone wants to try figuring it out: my NDRV3 favorite apparently has a crush on this character....... how did this happen omfg. I don’t really quite ship them though since this one seems a lot more one-sided than something like Komahina??? but I think understanding/respecting that my V3 fave feels that way is worth acknowledging since it has to do with their psychology/thought process-related shenanigans and character development

4. Izuru Kamukura (SORRY BROSKI I didn’t mean to whack you down so far on this list when you used to be second. ;w; I still love you too Kamukura sdjsjhfkh and I feel slightly bad about this but I have been thinking about this really thoroughly and comparing things and when it comes down to it, if I’m being honest I DO like those two NDRV3 characters more)

5. Nagisa Shingetsu (please hug him. please.)
