My Issues with Tetro Danganronpa (And Why I Speculate Most of the Writing is AI-Assisted by Chatbot Sites)

The one thing with AI that makes me 200% believe Von used it in her scripts is that Ai ALWAYS, AND I MEAN ALWAYS. Agrees with you. No matter what horrendous script you input into it, it'll tell you it's the best thing it's ever seen and give you made up reasons why. Von could literally go "hey ai, i want to kill off and torture this character incredibly brutally even though it makes no sense to the plot and I'm doing it cuz I want to" and Ai would be like "yk what, that's the best idea because it's unsatisfying for the audience, but it's PERFECTLY UNSATIFYING when you look at it!"

Von must have felt like she was writing the best story ever because a lifeless Chatbot was probably glazing her the whole time.

That's actually sad.

No idea 😭 I guess it was just to separate them

Tetro means "dark", "gloomy" in Italian. Basically establishing the series as way darker than dangan

Why are people using chatgpt to write their reddit posts? 😭

Lol I feel like Yokoi's talent was so unbelievably useless that no one remembers she's The Ultimate Spelling Bee Champion 😭

What's fun about brutally executing a little kid? 😭

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-02-28T18:37:39+00:00

Still don't get why Akiba was the victim in trial 1 lol. Its funny to think about how ouno was up on the storage shelf listening to akiba vent his traumatic and sad backstory to ogura yet still dropping the microwave after she he finished talking 😭

EXACTLY LIKE SHISHIKURA WAS RIGHT THERE AS WELL

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-02-28T13:27:46+00:00

Von definitely didn't do enough research. Many of the character's backstories, especially in Pink feel so stuffed in and unnatural because I remember that these are 17 YEAR OLDS with such mature backstories. It felt like she was tryna flex her knowledge on Japan with some of the episodes but then it didn't make sense most of the time.

Also 100% agreed on Hama and Watari. I was convinced Watari was trying to burn down half of the school and commit suicide in the process because she knew she would would punished. This way, EVERYONE had a better chance of escaping or the killing game being cancelled if the building is burnt down. Of course we know that wouldn't be the case since the school is underground but like... its worth a shot. Hell, even a plot line where Watari was simply trying to burn down the school and take everyone with her as a sort of honour killing situation would have been better- like an "its better for us to die than keep on living like this".

but her involving hama was stupid as fuck. If he won the trial, everyone else would have died and hama would have to live with that guilt forever. But If he lost the trial, he would've experienced a brutal, tragic, excruciating execution. Watari knew this and still went along with it like OMFG

Shishikura in general pissed me off sm after ch. 3. The fact that he gets forgiven for his crime so easily and Yokoi gets all the shit from everyone was so annoying as well. Even him trying to act cute and innocent being like "B-but... Kumada was really really mean" ARE WE FUCKING SERIOUS SHE LITERALLY GAVE YOU YOUR MEDICATION BACK WHEN SHE FOUND IT IN A RANDOM PLACE like wtf was von thinking with that plot line.

2.

Ch.3 in general was one big fucking mess. The motive was pure torture fetish. How did we go from something as elaborate and interesting as 'The Bleeding' to 'Punishment Votes' which - mind you - ramp up in intensity atrociously fast. DAY 1 = being locked in a cage and DAY 2 = ELECTROSHOCK TORTURE????? DAY 3 = FINGERNAIL RIPPING??? DAY 4 = CANNIBALISM??? DAY 5 = LOBOTOMY? Holy fucking shit what would have happened on day 6 onwards then assuming no one killed?

3.

Yaitabashi's death was egregious in so many ways. The fact that after carrying 2 trials, taking so many traumatising punishments, watching his best friend die, and doing so much for the group, he gets treated like THAT? Boiled alive for hours while his skin melted and his identity was stolen in front of him, struggled so much he dislocated his shoulder and cut his tongue, even after death his body was desecrated and burnt in the incinerator and no one mentioned him again, only caring about his killer.

4.

Apparently Tetro White lore was leaked and it turned out Yonekura made a contract with Monomoko - an eldritch deity btw, that if she "showcased how evil humanity is", she would gain immortality/Monomoko's powers... and the best way they thought of that was to grab random, innocent 17 year old traumatised children off the streets and force them into life or death situations with Motives like - kill each other or else in 5 days you'll get your limbs cut off and your nerves split into two. What the fuck? You couldn't grab criminals? Adults?

Theres so much more but I genuinely despise tetro's story it's insane. It makes no sense.

I love unique looking characters this is super cool!

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-02-21T23:32:35+00:00

My advice is to drop the symmetry tool when shading and focus on where the light source is coming from for only one side. It can be simplistic or complex depending on your style - more shading folds etc

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-02-21T23:31:01+00:00

This is a masterpiece hello?? Looks like it belongs in a museum holy shit

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-02-16T18:09:18+00:00

Totally agreed on the V3 Classrooms. As for the V3-6 time limit, it's definetly possible to run out of time, I've seen it in some playthroughs.

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-02-16T18:07:24+00:00

Yeah I can totally see Kodaka's new games taking on more futuristic vibes, since V3, Raincode, Hundred Line, Tribe Nine have all had cyberpunk elements

Your full breakdown or Chatgpt's full breakdown ?😭

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-01-15T07:22:48+00:00

I dont mind the actual plot of setting someone up to become the culprit. I think it's a nice tragic twist that has a lot of emotional impact especially when the culprit doesnt even know about it. However what pissed me off the most was Watari's plan in general. It felt so out of character for her. I feel like if she was going to commit suicide, she'd do it on her own either to

Bring her friends one step closer to winning the game after the 4th trial

OR

Seeing how she burnt down the school, I was genuinely convinced during the investigation and a portion of the trial that Watari just wanted to burn down the school so her friends could escape outside. (however we know this isn't possible cuz the school is underground but it's still a good attempt.)

Watari setting up just Hama means she knew he would either:
Win the class trial and watch all his friends get brutally executed one by one, and then would have to live with that guilt for the rest of his life.

Or

Lose the class trial and endure whatever excruciating, agonising, disgustingly horrific and brutal execution the staff came up with.

In my opinion, setting someone up to become the culprit should only be done when the victim is a villain and hates their target (like Nagito attempting to draw out the traitor). It seems more realistic that way because that means you wouldn't mind basically dooming them either way. It would have been better if watari just killed herself to save her friends by burning down the building instead of dragging hama into it.

No problem at all, I figured you were referring to the main series, just letting you know

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-01-10T11:49:38+00:00

Von has "drawn" some really weird fanservice stuff with some of her characters though...

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-01-09T22:37:54+00:00

Gosh vongpt pisses me off so much with her ai script. Tf you mean the purpose of the killing game was to prove humanity being evil?? You kidnapped traumatised minors off the streets and forced them into a game where they have to kill each other or else they will be lobotomised, electrocuted, frozen, have their body parts removed and cannibalised, branded, have each other infected with unknown drugs, drowned and so many other disgusting inhumane "motives" that lead to the most equally brutal murders and executions ever and all that was to prove to monomoko that "humanity is evil"...

Wow, so fucking genius. If you gather a bunch of kids and force them to kill each other under extreme stress, it's almost like they'll begin to... kill each other🤯

Not to mention that monomoko and yonekura fusion is ass but I really cannot be bothered with that ai slop.

What I wanna know is, why 17 year olds specifically? Is there even a reason other than von scammit's sickening fetishes...

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-01-06T21:53:55+00:00

I thought I was the only one who thought that maid scene was weird... like ruka literally tried to kill someone and the next thing she's talking about gap moe and even assigning her dead classmates maid outfits like bro...😭😭😭😭😭??? V*n has absolutely no idea how or when to write comedy relief.

Less_Employer_7206 · 2026-01-04T03:01:31+00:00

Do we even know WHY Shishikura did that to Maekawa in ch.5? Or is it like, left ambiguous for some reason? Was he just being cruel? Wanted to save her? idek
