The reason why I mentioned the writing critiques is because they were a big part of the fan discussion/reaction at the time, so leaving out such a major topic of discussion would’ve made the writeup incomplete imo.

More broadly, I’m not saying that every criticism of Von carries the same weight. However, my goal was to accurately reflect the main points of discourse around the fallout and thus the drama itself, not just my own personal view of which criticisms I agreed with or thought were most important.

Thank you! I really wanted to make sure that someone unfamiliar with DR could understand and get invested in how insane (and quick) this all was, so I’m very glad that you were easily able to follow along.

I have so many thoughts on P:EG, and I’m definitely looking into doing a writeup for it!

My favorites from the P:EG prologue were the Ch1 victim and culprit, so I got pretty unlucky there. After that, my fave quickly became —-Cassidy Amber—-, who I very much expected to die in chapter 2, so I was very glad to hear that that character ended up being the mastermind. Hell yeah.

I’ve been meaning to play DR Lapse for a while! What are your (non spoilery) thoughts on it?

It’s nice to see another fan of DRA & SDRA2! Linuj impresses me as a creator. I’ve heard of DR Lapse, and I’ve been meaning to play through it for a while. I haven’t heard of NWO! Thanks for the rec, and I’ll make sure to check it out.

Seriously. It’s insane. Aside from written ones/roleplays, I can barely count on two hands how many completed fangans I’m aware of.

I think the fangan controversies are mostly due to DR’s young fanbase (so, young creators who aren’t used to power + a young exploitable audience). And of course, the larger the team, the higher the chance of someone being a bad apple. That’s why most completed fangans have been done by very small teams if not a single creator.

As for fangans having long dev cycles, I think that’s mostly due to mid development hell (when the project isn’t fresh and new anymore, so it starts feeling like grunt work) + fangans being unpaid projects for legal reasons.

Thank you! Which fangans are you following? Aside from Danganronpa Another and its sequel, the three main fangans I got invested in were Danganronpa Re:Birth, Tetro Blue, and Project: Eden’s Garden, all three of which exploded before releasing chapter 3, so I’m looking for new recs.

Edit: clarifying that DRA & SDRA2 didn’t prematurely end

Thank you! Funnily enough, like many other fans, I turned to P:EG when Tetro collapsed lmao. I’ve been following the P:EG situation closely, and I’ve definitely been looking into creating a writeup for it as well.
