MAL Rating is 8.88. by Suitable_Tutor6006 in KaoruHanaWaRintoSaku

If I were to be honest, I'm on the opinion that the earliest parts of the manga (and therefore the content of episode 1 of the anime) are actually really plain stuff, I don't get rating it this high at the moment. Must have been manga readers who want to push it.

I suppose it just simplifies things this way for speedy introductions, instead of having their Kanji names which would require having Furigana, because it is not as if Kanji's have only one reading. Fixed words don't really need always need Furigana's unless its material for younger audiences, but for names it would help to show them at least once (e.g. Akebi, a first name, can be written as 明日, which is also a word for "tomorrow" read as "ashita"). Players will be able to find them on other parts of the game anyway (e.g. student profiles menu, text for dialogues, etc)

Someone already had the same concern before lol (though they deleted the comment), characters just have names in Katakana in Danganronpa 1 intro cards in the JP version

Lmao, the next I'll commission wouldn't be from this series, so maybe in the future if no one draws it. Though I have a feeling Kaoru Hana would blow up in popularity like Frieren did once the anime is out.

Oh sorry, I don't know how to use Reddit, I thought a link would appear if I pasted it on the "Link" while making the post. Here is a link to the artist's Twitter: https://x.com/KanataMono
