Over A Decade Late To Danganronpa But Played It Yesterday And Had To Draw Them!!

"It's salty! It's really salty!"

Last ask, and this is a wee bit indulgent. But would you ever feel in the mood to draw stuff like those Nagito rarepairs/polyships or platonic friendships the fandom sleeps on? Lots of fun potential with Natsumi and Sato. Him and Fuyuhiko can be very cute, and I love this one headcanon where Nagito's imaginary Fuyuhiko is noticeably taller than the real thing. Nagito and Mahiru can also be very cute (he just vibes well with tsunderes in general), and I like to imagine there'd be a lot of mutual affectionate caretaking. I think he also has a fair bit of potential with Imposter too.

I'd love too!! He deserves having some friendships like him and Ibuki (something I'm working on hehe) and polyships/rarepairs!! They deserve more appreciation and multishipper me is going to give him that, ahh he and imposter would be so cute too, personally kmhn/tpg is my favourite but these ships are also ADORABLE!! Him and Mahiru is also nice and you can give me an ask whenever you like anon<3 🤍🩷

😭 Precious sketches, all of them! Thank you, aeymii!

NO THANK YOU ANON YOU'RE LITERALLY THE NICEST!! 😭😭

WE STAN OUR BI DEATH METAL QUEEN IN THIS HOUSEHOLD 🎸⚡

I believe the first fic was one called Paper and Steel. An ongoing FuyuPeko fic that has some neat Fuyuhiko + Nagito quasi-friend interactions. Which is doubly fun for me, as Kuzukoma is actually one of my fondest ships for both characters. He reveals to Fuyuhiko that he actually requested a withdrawal and transfer from Principal Kirigiri so that Natsumi could take his place. There's also one fairly recent Nagito x Natsumi one-shot I came across, where he goes to her funeral with Fuyuhiko.

The other one was an ongoing Persona AU comic on Reddit. I can't remember the exact name. But yeah, it had Nagito and an amnesiac Sato end up in a cult that worships talent. Where they end up developing a kind of sibling bond, with Sato as Nagito's only real friend. A big turning point for both characters is when they finally defy the cult leader and leave together.

Tbh...I actually can't help but fantasize about Komahinatsumi and Komasatozumi AUs as well. Since I'm also a fan of Komahina, Hinatsumi, Komazumi, and Satozumi. Maybe Nagito would be platonic with Natsumi and Sato, or maybe it'd be romantic, who knows lol. Or wait...a Komahinanatsusatozumi verse! In which somehow that cheeky shit becomes the unifying cog-piece in a complex five-way relationship that prevents the Twilight Syndrome incident...And he may also be having some flings with Natsumi's brother on the side. Yasuke can join in too.

Paper and Steel got it!! I definitely have to give that a try soon, AHHHH IT HAS FUYUPEKO MY BABIESSSS ehehehhe that sounds adorable Kuzukoma is cute too!! AWW HE DID THAT'S SO NICE OF HIM FUYUHIKO WE LOVE YOU BOI!! The last one looks angsty!! I live for angst haha

Oh my gawd I love the idea of Nagito and Sato being a found family, defying the cult leader and leaving together?!?! AHHHH THAT'S SOUNDS SO GOOD HOW DO PEOPLE WRITE SO WELL!!

KOMAHINANATSUSATOZUMI SUPREMACY PEOPLE‼️‼️ They should all just poly it out, YEAH yasuke should!! And a Nagito having a few flings with Fuyuhiko hehe poly ships are just so adorable and would you look at that it prevented a murder too!!💞💞

Thank you again for the kind words and compliments. If you don't mind me asking, what's your favorite chapter from what you've read?

I can't choose there's so many good chapters!! But if I had to pick a few favorites it would have to be Izuru siding with Junko, and the other Nagito and Sato chapters because I love those two alot!! :))

And the new killing game one where we met the whole cast (v3 + 2) I really like how you wrote Tsumugi and gave her more personality, oh and how you wrote her interactions with Chiaki 💕💕

I just think it'd be weirdly endearing in a hilarious way if one of the people to help Nagito (and his protag self) break out of the "I'm worthless" mindset did so in the most crude and self-absorbed way possible.

Nagiko: "No, you little dumbass! You're not worthless or incompetent. I know that because I am NOT worthless or incompetent. I'm a fucking genius that surpassed a good chunk of those so-called Ultimates in their own field. Kirigiri's daughter? I demanded to her father's face that they replace that stupid luck exam with the detective exam they already had prepared for her third year. And I aced it in my first fucking year! That little shit, Togami? Please, I've seen how incompetently run his division of that Fuckwit Foundation is. And don't get me started on that overrated twerp, Naegi. You're better than the lot of them boy, because you ARE me! A stunted less competent male version of me true, but me nonetheless. And still a genius regardless."

Meanwhile he's covering his ears at this heresy, and shaking his head in denial.

Nagito: "Sis, STAAAHP! Don't compare me to Naegi-kun and Kirigiri-san! I'm nothing compared to them. The whole world knows it."

Nagiko: "Doesn't matter what the rest of the plebs say. They're morons, and they're all wrong. Only my opinion matters in this regard, Nagito. And I say you are better than you think you are. ONLY MY OPINION MATTERS!"

HAHAHAHA THAT'S JUST CONVENIENT- the mean one just helping the out the pushover lol!! She's the coolest out of them , The rest are just pathetic (affectionate), YOOOOOOOO YOU GO GIRL!! SHE'S A LITERAL GENIUS!! SHE EVEN SURPASSED ALOT OTHER ULTIMATES?!?! DETECTIVE EXAM?!?! Okay she low-key slays though !!THE FU- FOUNDATION!! SHE DON'T SPARE NOBODY!! NAHH SHE JUST BRUTAL, TOGAMI NOO LOL, NOT MY LITTLE MAN NAEGG- BWHAHAHA THE INSULTS ARE TOP TIER- i have to take notes from thisss

Less competent 💀💀 the way she roasts everyone while motivating him EXACTLY YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING LOOK AT ALL THE THINGS YOU ACHIEVED!! this is why he's my son, NUUUU HE DON'T BELIEVE IT?!?! BRUH YOU ARE SPECIAL TRUST HER!! (I can imagine him saying that though eheh) AHHHH SHE'S SO NICE (In her own way lol) THE WAY NAGIKO MOTIVATES HIM ASISKSIDMSJ BUT THAT'S SO WHOLESOMEE TELL EM GIRLBOSS 💘💘

I can't remember exactly where I found it. But there was one concept for a class swap similar to that one I mentioned somewhere on this site. It was more focused on the Despair Class 78. But I was immediately interested when it had the idea to make Nagito the protagonist. Since in most other class swaps, it's typically either Chiaki or Hajime. I feel like you could do a really fun character arc with that premise.

I believe the other survivors were Mahiru, Gundham, Sonia, Kazuichi, Mikan, and Hiyoko. Could imagine lots of fun friendship/shipping stuff with that group. As well as some tragic potential with deceased classmates like Chiaki and Imposter.

I don't think the outline I saw had ironed out all the details of the THH scenario. So I adopted my own headcanons. Like Class 77 retaining memories of the first year, since they're older and it'd be harder to cover up the amnesia (especially with Hiyoko's growth spurt). As well as stuff like Imposter being the last one to die, and bonding scenes with them makes their death hit Nagito much harder. Also mused about the idea of Chiaki being the blackened in a similar way to Kaede. The mastermind realizing that the retained memories of the first year means Chiaki has to be eliminated and discredited early on, because Class 77 are a lot less willing to participate in the Killing Game in this AU.

MIKAN BEING A SURVIVOR WOULD BE AMAZING ( I know they all survived at the end of the anime but that's a long time later and this group would be adorable ) Mahiru would be so kind to them and take care of the others I love her so much, I think I heard that Hiyoko was originally supposed to be a survivor which would've also been cool, GUNDHAM TANAKA WE LOVE YOUUU, him and Sonia would get along well and Kazuichi would be like >:0 or something lol it's okay we still love you Souda, Mahiru and Hiyoko would also bond, and maybe Mahiru could help out Mikan a bit or a girls night with them or they can all have sleepovers and take care of one another and-

Hehehe I got a lil carried away, I just love survivor groups, they're so wholesome and a found family, but I think Gundham and Mikan could get along well because he's a softie deep down and we love Tanaka!! 💖💖 IMPOSTER BEING THE LAST TO DIE NOOOO WE LOVED YOU BRUH!! They deserve the world!! It would, so much angst and hurt HAHAHAHH I LOVE IT!! *evil laughter lol* >:)

OMG THAT'S GENIUS LIKE A SIMILAR SITUATION TO KAEDE NOT ACTUALLY BEING THE BLACKENED, The similarities!! :00 that's a genius idea, her dying earlier on when they retain their memories, this can work so well!!!! Chiaki you were amazing, and also she deserved better, she slayed so hard they decided to kill best girl twice, but I love the idea of her having a Kaede role <33

Just played genshin recently and I am inlove ✨

Also imagine the trio ending up in the grand meetup of the other Komas and their ship clubs. And because he's a protagonist in his verse, and has so much ship teasing going on with like a quarter of the cast, Protag!Nagito has doppelgangers on all sides insisting that he join their club.

Matsukoma Nagito: "You're not one of those Mikan-loving Komaedas, are you? There's only one truly worthwhile medical partner. Even if he's dead in your verse, Yasuke is irreplaceable."

Protag!Nagito: "Now wait just a minute! I'll have you know that Mikan is a lovely person, and a very dear-"

Komamiki Nagito: "ONE OF US! HE'S ONE OF US!"

Protag!Nagito: "Wait, wait! I didn't say that-"

Matsukoma Nagito: "You didn't say that you weren't either. Well?"

Protag!Nagito: "I...But..."

Roulette Nagito: "Hold the phone! We saw footage of that hotbaths scene with Gudham. You seemed to be quite enjoying yourself there."

Protag!Nagito: "I was just really happy to be included as one of the guys!"

Soumaeda Nagito: "Kaz was there too!"

Roulette Nagito: "...What if he's in a poly relationship with Gundham AND Kaz?"

Soumaeda Nagito: "Ooh! I don't think we've had that combo yet. Or maybe with Gundham, Kaz, AND Sonia. He seems to get along very well with her too."

Protag!Nagito: "What?! No, you've got it all...I mean..."

Komazumi Nagito: "Oh come on. We've seen you've had some cute bonding moments with Mahiru. No one can smile quite the way she does. And those freckles!"

Protag!Nagito: "Mahiru...is important to me. But this is all so very sudden!"

Komanami Nagito: "NO! Stay loyal to Chiaki to the very end! Even if it means waiting until the next life!"

Protag!Nagito: "Aargh! Leave me alone!"

All the while main Nagito and Nagiko are just laughing in the background eating popcorn. Just to be clear I treat main Nagito and Protag!Nagito's OTP as "Insert preferred ship here". It could be Komahina. Or it could be something as wild as a resurrected cyborg Yasuke for the Matsukoma diehards.

I do also have this one idea I've mused about for Nagiko's flings. Generally speaking she actually doesn't hold the many Kamukuras of the multiverse in high regard. Feeling that the novelty wears off fast, as once you've met one Kamukura, you've met most of them. Channeling Stillwell from the comic The Boys and thinking like "What have you thought of to do that the lowest speck of humanity couldn't, were they to be granted your level of power?". Being especially unimpressed by the ones that try to assuage their boredom by joining Junko or doing something else she considers equally dull and unproductive.

But there are exceptions to that. Like one Natsumizuru that she took a fondness to. Who had a bit more of a spark in her than a lot of other Kamukuras did, and channeled her talents in more productive ways to stave off boredom. I have this one mental image of Nagiko trolling main Fuyuhiko by not-so-subtly implying she had a thing going on with an alternate superhuman version of his sister. Being all like "Man she was rough, if I didn't have a reinforced skeleton that girl would have demolished my spine."

Komas unite for real HAHAHA, EXACTLY like, the protagonist always gets the best ships in this franchise!! I can't even pick a favorite Saihara ship- I have like 4 favorites?!?!

Nahh Koma's not gonna defend her- I WILL DEFEND HER!! WHADDYA SAY TO MIKAN PUNK?! hehe, Go Yasuke lol, YEAH TELL EM PROTAG- ONE OF US AHZDVA IM DYING HAHAHAHA THIS IS HILARIOUS!!
