It's close, but I prefer the first by a little bit. But DR2 gets a lot better as it goes on.

I enjoyed it way more than i enjoyed DR1
It's been up on the US store since December.
Originally, the Vita version of the LE was selling out much quicker, but after just checking, both are at the "26%-50% left" level.
I went with Vita since it's cheaper, it was selling out faster, & I prefer playing these VN style games on a handheld.

omg, someone needs to translate this Danganronpa Rebirth page, such a bummer this is April Fools
Fuck. I got invested from the looks of the characters alone. This is seriously an April Fool's joke? Shit!

Killer Killer is over. It was bad.
The ending has to be taking the piss.
That's beyond stupid. It's so stupid that it has to be on purpose.

The main character gets her head cut off so cleanly that it lands in the exact same position so its like it was never severed?

I know this is the manga where
an actual Mukuro clone army / worshipper sect
It seems everything related to Danganronpa 3 was doomed to have awful resolutions.

Does Killer Killer have any connection to NDRV3 at all, or just the original trilogy? I haven't been keeping up with it.
As far as I know it has nothing to do with NDRV3. At the very least, I don't recall seeing anything related to it while playing NDRV3.
Only been reading on and off and just skimming over but i doubt there is anything to justify the manga.

Lol

any plot summary anywhere? got as far as (KK spoiler)
the mukuro clone army appearing
If by bad taste you mean less chaotic, sadistic and grotesque executions. Sure.
R.I.P. Ken.

But really, I most likely will be getting V3 on PC. Even though I got it on vita last time.

I just finished Killer Killer after suddenly remembering it exists. Whew, that ending gives no shits lol.
Well after that, Killer Killer's childhood friend tries to kill Asano to make Hijihara stop killing. Future Foundation arrives to stop it and the friend gets away with a smoke bomb but left a locked necklace on Asano's neck. Then he does a livestream announcing he'll blow up the city and kill thousands unless Asano is killed within the 24 hour timelimit.
Asano asks Hijihara to kill her. He promises to, but then escapes with her. Its also revealed that Hijihara's friend became a murderer of serial killers as well. Various Future Foundation cameos occur including Tengen asking Asano what kind of person Hijihara is. Asano says he deserves to be loved and they have a cute moment. Tengen says he trusts them and allows Hijihara and Asano to get away, but not before slipping a bomb in Asano's pocket. Hijihara and Asano go to confront Hijihara's friend who is hiding in the locker where they first saw murder. Hijihara's friend is in love with him and hates Asano. After a grueling battle, Hijihara stabs himself to stab his friend who is choking him from behind. His friend blows himself up because he doesn't want Hijihara to kill more people. Asano's bracelet is still active. Hijihara cuts her neck so cleanly that the necklace comes off but she doesn't die. (LUL) Hijihara escapes with lethal wounds. Later Hijihara shows up at Asano's office and they basically elope. The end.

Thank you so much! Sounds hilarious
That sounds fucking stupid. So with this series, only pay attention to the main line games I guess...
Pretty much though i heard the D:Zero light novel is good other than that the main games are the only ones worth it
Well I'm still not clicking that spoiler.
It just says the series is dead thanks to it
This is why Makoto is worst danganmc

Anyone know if best buy or Amazon are getting the launch edition for the PS4?
Also, how did
And where can I read the novels?
Also, how did
the rest of the 77th class come back? They just magically wake up?And why in 2 the imposter looks like togami but in despair arc he is impersonating the animator dude?
And where can I read the novels?

So one is calm and reserved in a stressful situation, while the other screams himself to sleep.
I identify with Hinata, but Makoto handled the situation better.
No, it's more like
One character is far more developed and realistic than the other
They're seemingly similar but Hajime is 100x better
YouTube version.
Only obvious one is Brian Beacock returning as Monokuma. The audio mix makes it really hard to tell exactly who's who. Gonta sounds kinda like Kaiji Tang, but I can't tell who he is. I'm also seeing people arguing over whether it's Bryce Papenbrook or Derek Stephen Prince voicing Ouma, but I don't think it's either of them.
Better just to wait until we have a direct feed of the gameplay, but the actors have usually come out about who they voice before the game comes out. Luckily, there's a demo on the show floor, so it shouldn't be that long.
EDIT: Welp. Tang's voiced three characters in the series now.
I got this
GOD'S EAR, ACTIVATE
Kaede: If the voice at the end is hers, then it's Erica Harlatcher
Miu: I think this is Wendee Lee
Himiko: Christine Marie Cabanos
Gonta: Obvious
Ryoma: Ben Disken
Kirumi: Kira Buckland for sure
Ouma:
Tenko: Julie Ann Taylor, maybe
Can't discern the rest
..................
The voice actor reuse is real
If you're worried about spoilers, just watch it in incognito mode, or turn search history off. The only adds showing up in the side bar are for other E3 PlayStation trailers.

Trailer seemed fine. I guess I don't really want to see more of the game despite wanting to see more of the game.
Yeah, I was waiting for you to chime in with your ears. I picked up on the Miu/Himiko/Ryoma stuff, too, but the audio mix is such a wall of sound that I didn't want to say anything for certain. Especially when Bang Zoom has worked with a few voice actresses with similar ranges to her like Laura Post/Anne Yatco/Sara Cravens. But yeah, I think Harlacher's a lock for Kaede, though I don't mind that, when her regular voice is so much different from her Kyoko voice.
But then fans got so rabid that about the possibility of Bryce voicing Ouma that the lead localizer had to step in and say that he's not voicing the character. Not only that, but apparently the "Don't get emotional" line is also the real actor's, though some people who played the Japanese version are saying that it sounds like a line Korekiyo has. I dunno; he posted to the NISA forums to confirm everything, but the whole thread's been deleted. Either he mispoke and did as much damage control as he could, or he just isn't allowed to talk about the actors right now.
Link to the point when the segment starts. If anyone's avoiding spoilers, this is the English version of the Japanese demo, which is based on things that aren't actually in the full game.
The only thing is that the trial segment isn't voiced, so I don't know if they spent the money to dub the demo for a public release.

I think Beautiful Ruin might be in my top 5 favorite video game songs of all time.

By extension I guess I could say all the Beautiful songs. I'm holding out on listening to Lie for now though!

That is awesome news!
Thinking back, the DR3 Future cast was overall pretty sweet. Were it a game I might have liked them better than the original cast on the whole.
DR3's cast was really good
At being terrible
If there was a competition for the worst group of individuals, they'd take first place without question

Overview trailer. Not sure if i'm feeling the voices, but I really liked the dub for 1 and 2 so I hope I like them more when the game's out

The DR1/DR2 trailers were similarly awkward sounding, so there's definitely a chance it'll play better when the game comes out
But man, I just can't get over the voice actor reuse
Ouma's(?) voice is straight up grating
I assume most of the weird shit in that game is from the bonus School Mode?
yeah that's bonus mode stuff
Ouma's was the one I disliked the most lmao
What's Ouma's line in the trailer?
Kinda bummed all confirmed voice actors were already used in DR1/2/AE, even though I like them in general.
I hope we'll see at least some new actors.
Edit: Erika Harlacher as Kaede is fine though, she improved her acting quite a lot since she played Kyoko.

[MEGA SPOILERS FOR V3]
It's probably a money saving effort, given that they'd have to get the old cast to reprise their roles in the final trial anyhow.
