SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 2 OF DANGANRONPA ANNABELLUM LOCKDOWN⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
MY MASTERPIECE IS HERE
Peppermint you will always be famous
Been thinking about Hasegawa Ken's Student Spotlight. Let's start with this exchange :
Kamimura Kazutoshi : "Looks like you're gonna have to find yourself an ultra capable wife who doesn't mind you being a useless man-child."
Hasegawa Ken : "Oh yeah, I'll get right on that..."
Kamimura Kazutoshi : "The money will help."
Hasegawa Ken : "I'm not into women, though."
Many people interpret Kamimura's silence as hope--"Maybe I do have a chance!". But looking at his behaviour throughout the entirety of the student spotlight, I'd actually be more inclined to believe that his silence communicates...jealousy. As in, Hasegawa revealed his sexuality with such ease, showing that it really is no big deal for him. He's probably talked about it before. And to Kamimura, who as we know, got bullied so hard for his sexuality he had to drop out, this feels insulting.
At the beginning of this exchange, it does feel like Kamimura is testing the waters, but the subsequent jealousy still holds true.
Throughout the interview, anytime money or family is brought up, Kamimura always has something snarky or playfully antagonistic to say. But behind that playfulness is some truth. Because as much as he loves Hasegawa, he can't deny that the world he lives in is vastly different from his own. He's the Golden Boy who found success doing something he loves. He has everything that Kamimura lacks, including a loving family and enough money to feel secure. When Kamimura calls him a "Rat fucking bastard", I think he means it. It's the envy talking.
When Hasegawa tells him that he would help him financially once they escape, I think Kamimura's reaction communicates both embarrassment and offense. On one hand, it's sweet and he's not used to people being so nice. One the other hand, "Does he think I'm a charity case or something?".
In-universe, when Monomoko told them that she was not the one who chose the questions, the two of them must have been so confused. Because it's obvious that the reason why 2/10 of Ken's questions were about Kazutoshi is because of shippers. But to them, it feels like whoever is running the killing game is watching their interactions kicking their feet and giggling. Just very odd behaviour for a mastermind.
Had it been the scientists, it would have been interesting to formulate the questions differently. Rather than asking him "Are you worried about Kamimura Kazutoshi, given the recent events?", they could have asked "Why are you burdening yourself with protecting him?". I feel like that would have really triggered Hasegawa into showing a side of himself he has been trying so hard to smother until that point. I think it would have rattled Kamimura, just like it did in Woodshop. It would have made him realize just how...intimidating and unstable Hasegawa can be if you push him far enough.
Overall, I believe Kamimura's feelings towards Hasegawa are...complicated. A mixture of genuine love and frustration. As well as an ever-present feeling that Hasegawa will never truly understand him, since he's never been through what he's been through.

TAG YOUR MOOTS AND MAKE THEM EXPLAIN THEIR USERNAMES LORE
Starting with me:
Hyyl18 because when i was youngest i had a group in a random app with some friends and i didnt knew qhat username to use so i decided to create one with things i used to read since we were talking abt fanfic in this group so: Hot Yaoi Yuri Lemon +18 stuff (i was in my dirty era dont dare to judge me). Hyyl18 thats it. Now i use it everywhere yay
@patroclus-is-the-bigger-person @b4rty-r0s13r-w1ll-fck-y0ur-m0m @cuntyteardrop @glassesgirlies @leninthestarlight @bardorsomethinglikethat anyone else who wanna join tbh yay
so I was just finished with reading song of achilles, highly recommend, made me sob, and achilles pissed me off, like the pride was mental, so I thought that patroclus, my king, deserved some well deserved love and appreciation. The bigger person part is in no way at all a tribute to me because I am the petty bitch you will ever have the displeasure of coming across
@bardorsomethinglikethat @achillesfinch14 @bartdrawssometimes
@hyyl18
basically bards are important in my book series, and that was inspired from the bard yaskier from the Witcher, and I feel like it was something he'd say about himself so I went with that.

HEY GNG! SOOOOOO MY USER HUH? CURIOUSSSSS? well how lovely!
As we know, my username is “Nightshadespoeticwriter”! Wellll I write poems a lot, it’s my artistic expression that I use to basically yknow…uh expresses my emotions and my own thoughts and experiences! It can be very hard times to share my emotions in my own words from speaking so I find myself writing my own thoughts, feelings and experiences into words on a page, it’s very helpful for me to actually see what parts of me need a lil more care and support to get them through everything, I get overwhelmed by the thought of just…saying what’s going in my head to people so writing is much easier and way better! Nightshade? They’re one of my favourite flowers, they’re symbolism I can relate to so yeah and the other reason for “Nightshade” Is private…but ay it has three meanings, and the “S” At the end is supposed to be used with an apostrophe so yeah!
Poetic, thats with my writer so yeah it makes sense to me, the writer part is also connected to that, I use art as a way to express myself, I’m an Autodidact Creator so yeah, meaning I'm self-taught! Even with my voice acting, yes my auditions are still yknow whatever, I guess you can get what I'm saying!

Do you perhaps like marie warner
no I hate her 👀
Haircut
Tetro Headcanons !! (I'll also be doing other character headcanons I'm just starting with tetro)
Student 1P : Isono Miki !!
10000 likes!
Buncha random head canons (mostly different kinds of body head canons)
Let's start with body type! I'm prefacing this by saying that this is by no means trying to sexualize the cast I just think body shapes are cool and fun.
Isono - I am a massive proponent for chubby Miki. I think she has more of a pear shape and caries most of her weight in her tummy or legs. I also like to draw her with freckles, like a lot of freckles. It might be because she's ginger. Also acne Miki real. Also Dimples. That is all.
Harada - CHUBBY HARADA. I refuse to budge on this matter. The second I figure out how I draw him I will be drawing him so much I kinda hate how my current drawing of him is coming out because he doesn't look chubby enough!! Also canonically he has muscle under his body fat. Also I think he canonically has freckles but if I'm wrong then he also has freckles. I also think he has kinda fucked up teeth, like double canines or a snaggletooth or something. Also he's covered in cat scratches from Sawa. I desperately want to be number nine (/silly).
Chiba - Canonically underweight :<. I feel like if she weren't malnourished and allowed to actually grow properly she would be a little chubbier but unfortunately parents :/. I think she has a REALLY complicated skin care routine, and she still gets zits from time to time. She also has really nice nails, she grows naturally really nice French tips and I am envious.
Kamimura - Very skinny. Not like Wada or Chiba malnourished skinny but like sopping wet pomeranian skinny. His teeth are also fucked and he needs braces pretty bad but he refuses to get them. He also has a bunch of silly piercings, tongue, a good three ear piercings, gages, eyebrow, spiderbites, the works. Also he has eye issues and needs glasses but won't get them.
Hayashi - Obviously built like a brick house. She's also like super fast and speedy because of how much she runs with her puppers and also her job but mostly the puppies. She also has like super nice lashes and impeccable cheekbones, if it weren't for the permascoul it would be like you stuck an entry level models face on Ms. Olympia. This is why boys ask her out all the time.
Wada - Obviously very underweight. I think he has nobby little knees and slightly bowed legs and his thighs are the kind of skinny where it looks like they curve inward. Also he's albino so he also has eye issues and can not stand to go outside without sunglasses and simply does not tan.
Sasaki - Sasaki has a very average build, but shes on the willowy side. I think she walks with the subtlest of limps from that knee injury and doesn't do great on really long treks because of it. Also I think she's specifically near sighted and when she's winding down for bed she'll take of her glasses and read until she falls asleep. Impeccable skin.
Ojima - Ojima isn't muscular or anything bit he's like ever so slightly toned. I think this exclusively because of that time Von gave him boy lifting ass grabbing perms. Another dimple haver, but they're subtler than Isono's. He has very broad shoulders. Also his ties tucked into his.... thingy because it gets in the way when he draws.
Okazaki - Skinny. Very throwable, very puntable, I think a stiff enough breeze could throw off her balance. Beanpole. She also has double canines
Hama - Obviously built. Frequently I can't tell if I'm looking at his sprite wrong or if he just has a very cut waist but I like to think it's the latter for funsies. Hama also frequently has bandaids on his fingers because he plays his guitar too much.
Tsuno - Similar to Harada, chubby but with muscle underneath. I very much can't decide if she has squishy tummy or abs but either interpretation makes me happy. Also shout out to her hour glass figure, it makes my headcanon lead toward the chubby end of the spectrum because women with a chubby hour glass figures are shapey and fun to draw.
Hiroaki - This man has negative muscle mass he is not but bones and flesh. I think his silhouette is just box I think he has negative curves. He also has a little bit of a baby face in my brain. He also has bruises on his arms from... activities so he's always wearing long sleeves. Also mole under his right eye.
Tamba - Very lithe very athletic very gymnast. I forget if her sprite has abs or not but if it doesnt she has abs. I think if we were to exclude the malnourished people she would probably weigh the least. Also broad shoulders. Not like Ojima or Mai broad but like broader than most of the other girls. This is offhandedly mentioned in the climb and I'm exaggerating it for fun.
Hasegawa - Canonically has some musculature, this is noted by multiple people. It's obviously not as much as Hayashi or Hama but I think he'd have a slightly more muscular build than Yanagi. Another possesser of dimples and freckles, I think they would suit his permanently horrified eyes. I think despite being muscular he still has a very straight and boxy build, still a beanpole just less squishy.
Watari - More muscular than Tamba. She's a dancer, I think her leg game goes crazy. That said she absolutely skips arm day, she is powerful in the legs and the legs only. She also has uneven teeth, I can't decide between a gap or if they're just crooked. Also because we know she sews but we only ever see her sewing on patches by hand and we hear hide nor hair of her using one of the sewing machines I'm going to assume she sews all of those uniforms by hand and so her hands are super callous and she always has bandaids on them.
Yanagi - Twink. Honestly same build as tamba but with more chub on it. Unlike Tamba I do not think he has abs. I think he does have slightly better arm game than tamba though, I think he could definitely lift more than her. He also has very pinchable cheeks, dimples, and very nice eyelashes. Like I'd commit murder for them kind of eyelashes. Unfortunately they are not the Blonde Eyelashes TM that I adore so much but they are still very nice.
I also have shaving head canons! I don't know if people would consider this one weird, but I know when I shave my legs it's more a presentation, sensory, and therapeutic thing than a "sexy" kind of thing so that's the angle I'm approaching this from.
Isono - I think Isono does not shave. I think we need more keyboard goblin Miki propaganda and this is my addition to it. She used to before she fully retreated but now she just does not give a shit, it's orange anyway it's not very noticeable and she doesn't go outside so who's judging her.
Harada - I think Harada shaves his face and his face only and I think he's a little shitty at it. Like he still has stubbly patches that he missed and is too lazy to go back in and fix because he doesn't have the time or energy. Its also patchy so he can not grow it out. His hair isn't thick but it is very dark so it's pretty noticeable.
Chiba - I do not think Chiba grows hair, and if she does it is the shortest little blonde fuckers that are completely invisible to the human eye in which case yes she does shave it but only when her mom gets on her case about it.
Kamimura - I also do not think Kamimura grows hair, and if he does it's very light and he does not bother to shave.
Hayashi - Hayashi only shaves in the summer and spring, one the long pants come out she can not be bothered to pick up a razor. Even then she only shaves when she feels like it which is very infrequently.
Wada - I think Wada has very faint very blonde hair that he does not shave. It is imperceptible to the human eye.
Sasaki - I think Sasaki shaves pretty religiously. I think she is absolutely a bath girly and I think part of her bath routine is a very in depth shave routine. I think she does it partly because it's therapeutic and partly because she can not stand the feeling of new hairs growing in and it drives her insane.
Ojima - Onion doesn't know what a razor is.
Okazaki - Okazaki does not shave. They are very attatched to their silly little leg hairs and their shittty little stubble because it makes them feel dashing and handsome.
Hama - I think Hama actually does shave just because it obstructs his tattoos because his hair is dark and a little bit dense.
Tsuno - Tsuno shaves because she likes feeling pretty and feminine and silky and going skirt go spinny. She uses the good shit too, nice Shea butter and quality lotion.
Hiroaki - I think he used to shave his legs when he was modeling his own clothes but now he doesn't really care. He'll sometimes do it in the summer when its shorts time but ony when he really feels like it. He does make sure to keep his fave stubble free tho because he feels like it doesn't look good on him.
Tamba - I think Tamba shaves because she thinks it makes her more aerodynamic. No one has told her that is for swimmers and not gymnasts.
Hasegawa - I'm gonna project here and say that Ken has sensory issues with body hair so he shaves. Otherwise he thinks it's cumbersome and annoying, but he can not stand the feeling of his leghairs brushing his pant leg.
Watari - she only shaves for dance competitions, she doesn't really have the time to take an hour and shave otherwise.
Yanagi - Face only, I like to think that his dad has stubble and he refuses to let any hair grow at all ever or he will start crying.
Hi hi Briar!! You asked for more silly asks and I love your posts so may I please ask for headcanons on how the Tetro characters (blue or pink) might sit/stand? This can also extend to general body language headcanons if you want. This might be kind of a weird/niche thing to ask about but I think it's just fun to think about these kinds of things.
No pressure obviously!
(- @akari-of-moonlight)
Hi hi akari!! I love these kinds of head canons!! Also love ur posts too!!! Warning, I’m gonna have more to say about the pink students than the bluedents for obvious reasons, but I do still have some things to say about them.
Isono - Isono has gamer posture when she sits. She leans forward naturally when she sits, but being a streamer just made it worse. She does frequently sit crisscross in her gaming chair tho, in fact it’s her preferred way to sit. When she stands, she has a slight slouch, not enough to be noticeable, but enough to make her look relaxed at all times. In terms of body language, she makes herself smaller when she’s sad or anxious, often fidgeting with her hands at her chest or hugging herself.
Harada - Von has stated that Harada is off balance and that he uses his heavy backpack as a kinda mobility aid almost to keep him balanced. I think he also veers from side to side when he walks though! Because of this when he walks with Yukino he always walks on the side closest to the street because he worries he’d end up slowly pushing her more and more toward it. When he sits he tends to rest his elbows on the table infront of him, and when he doesn’t have a table he feels awkward so he rests them in his lap. In terms of body language when he’s thinking he drums his fingers on the nearest surface to help him concentrate.
Chiba - Chiba has a very peppy walk! She almost skips rather than walk, and she walks really fast. You’d expect her to lag behind because of how short she is, but actually she’s the person who leads the group when she walks with other people. When she stands she has very straight posture, but in the way where it’s almost too straight, like she pushes it so far her torso points backward and she pushes her tummy out. She also tends to hold her hands behind her back like an anime character drawn by a twelve year old. She also sits in chairs crisscross because it makes her insecure her feet don’t touch the floor when she sits. In terms of body language, when she’s angry she holds her arms out to the sides and clenches her fists to try to make herself look bigger.
Kamimura - Kamimura slouches forward aggressively. Bro has a scoliosis and he’s actually like 3 inches taller than he looks because of how bad he slouches. When he sits he sits cross legged but in the way where his knee makes a horizontal triangle rather than the back of his knee touching the other knee. When he gets angry he gets in peoples faces and stands on his tiptoes to meet their eyes.
Hayashi - Hayashi has straight posture, but when she’s comfortable around someone she slouches. When she sits she leans the chair off it’s back feet, but a few weeks into the game she started sitting like Kamimura does cause she picked it up from him. Hayashi does not emote with her face very much so she conveys her emotion with her body and voice a lot more, and it’s very hard to get her to smile.
Wada - Wada crouches in in himself at all times. He wants to be as small as possible and take up as little space as he can. When he sits he sits on his knees, or just one knee with the other one bent upward, which makes him look reaaaaallly small. When he gets excited about something he stops closing in on himself and he gets really animated, it’s really cute.
Sasaki - Straight posture. She sits aggressively normally. It’s almost comical how perfectly she tries to do basic tasks like standing and sitting, but it makes her feel like she has more control. When she’s mad her hands get really animated. I’ve said this before but I think she has a slight limp from her knee injury.
Ojima - Slouch. This man does not have good posture. He hunches over the table when he sits down as a force of habit from drawing. He actually has back pain because of it. He also bounces his leg when he’s not SUPER MEGA ULTRA locked in (which exclusively happens when he’s drawing).
Okazaki - Okazaki *normally* has straight posture, until she talks to someone shorter than her. When she’s talking to someone smaller than her she gets uncomfortably close and looms over them intimidatingly even when she isn’t being mean. It’s not a power thing it’s just how she is. She also talks with her hands. She sits like Kazutoshi does but with the opposite leg, she also rests her elbow on the bent knee and rests her face on her palm.
Hama - Hama has straight posture. He walks in a way that I can’t explain other than if he wasn’t a six eight muscular delinquent he would look like a dork. When he sits he crosses his arms and leans the chair back like Hayashi does. When he sits in an arm chair he sits sideways with one arm on the side rest and his legs bent over the other rest like the bisexual idiot he is. He does the anime thing where he puts his hand behind his head and blushes when he’s embarrassed. A lot of the way he moves is like an anime character because he’s an autistic dork that learned social ques from anime.
Tsuno - Tsuno does not walk, Tsuno struts. She usually has at least one hand on her hip, if not both. When she walks with a bag, one hands on her hip and the other is fiddling with the bags strap. She has good posture, her parents actually used to nag her about it when she was in her delinquent era, so she makes sure it’s good to keep them happy. She’s very bouncy when she’s happy.
Hiroaki - Slouch. But when he’s flustered he straightens up real quick. When he sits he sits cross legged with his knees touching. He’s a hand talker and when he’s being sad for the bit he deflates like a balloon.
Tamba - Good posture. Sits with her knees together and her hands on her knees. Tamba just sits, walks, stands, and emotes like a normal person. I don’t have any interesting notes for her body language.
Hasegawa - Aggressively straight posture until he gets anxious or sad and then he slouches forward. I don’t know how to describe the way he emotes other than that he is like a dog. I just picture his little hair wings going up and down like a dogs ears when he’s sad or happy. When he sits he sits very politely with his hands folded in his lap. But when a subject catches his interest he starts bouncing his leg really fast, which sometimes aggravates Kamimura when it starts shaking the table.
Watari - Spread eagle lesbian in all situations that don’t require a skirt. She does that thing where she slowly slides down the chair more and more until she’s laying on the floor. When she’s excited she gets really bouncy and animates and when she’s being silly she puts on a very serious face so people can’t tell if she’s fucking with them.
Yanagi - Very formal posture and sitting. Like Hasegawa he is also an absolute dog of a man. When he’s happy you can practically see the tail waging. He rests his head on Mai’a knees like a dog. He acts like he’s some prince who will take care of all your needs, and he will, but he will also be a pathetic little dog of a man when you are alone with him unless you are Hayashi Mai in which case you are not spared even in public.
Ouno - Ouno is cat. She moves in horrid skrunkly little ways like a cat. When she’s emoting strongly she balls her fists, whether she’s happy or angry or sad. She is also a crisscross applesauce chair sitter, and she lays her crowbar across her lap.
Ninomiya - Slouch. Sits cross legged with knees touching. Talks with his hands when he’s being silly. He also does the Okazaki thing where he looms uncomfortably close to people shorter than him.
Kumada - Straight posture actually, you’d expect her to slouch, but she wants to make herself look bigger so she stands really straight. She sits weird, I dunno how yet, but she has the bisexual swagger so she sits weird. When she’s angry she gets in peoples faces and when she’s comfortable around you she acts like a cat and knocks stuff off of ledges to get your attention.
Ikeda - This man will not take his hands out of his pockets unless absolutely required. He slouches and he walks with a slightly opened gait, not like a cowboy but not that dissimilar. He does the anime hands behind head elbows up thing a lot.
Denden - Sweet little thing bounces everywhere. She walks with her hands out and sways them back and forth. This isn’t really a body language thing but I think she’s really touchy with people she likes which frustrates Hirose. She touches her face a lot.
Tsukigata - He walks all fucked up somehow and it makes him a klutz and he falls down all the time. I think he also has an open gait like ikeda from horse riding so much. When he’s excited he is really animated and acts like an anime character. When he’s sad he deflates and starts crying over the slightest inconvenience. I think he stands like Chiba does.
Yokoi - Straight posture except in bathophobia where she noticeably slouches and caves in on herself. She bounces around when she walks and she is very supremely animated when she talks. She hand flaps when she’s excited frfr
Yaitabashi - He walks very slowly but he has straight posture. He does tend to veer to the left or right a little when he’s walking, not as much as Harada does but enough to be noticeable. He doesn’t emote with his body very much, really just his face.
Maekawa - Tall stance, confident posture, fuckass sitting position. She absolutely spread eagles and has her forearms dangle off her knees and leans forward aggressively. When she’s mad she moves a lot, like she has to pace the anger out of her and she talks with her hands aggressively.
Hirose -Straight posture, sits like a normal person, but he holds his hands behind his back like an old man. I don’t have anything else interesting to say about him.
Ogura - straight posture standing but she leans forward when sitting from painting and being on her puter. She also struts, which is very funny because she is three apples tall and has no reason to walk around like she owns the place, she could be punted like a football.
Shishikura - PUT YOUR FUCKINNG ARM DOWN. Not touching this one until it’s confirmed or denied he has DID
Isoda - Slouch, walks with their hands in their pockets, caves kinda in on themselves like Wada does. Sits cross legged with knee bent and she leans back in her chair, not enough to take the front legs off the ground, but enough to look like she’s really nonchalant and relaxed.
Tei - He slouches. He sits normally but he rests his elbows on his knees and leans forward like he’s in a doctors office and was just told he’s pregnant. He walks very lethargically. When he’s mad he talks with his hands a lot. He flips people off instead of talking a lot.
Nishiguchi - Straight posture. She sits with her let’s crossed with knees touching and her arms crossed. She looks very closed off. When she’s mad at people she hits them very lightly on the back or on the shoulder, but she does not to this to yaitabashi when he pisses her off because he is two apples tall and she is very gentle with him actually. She regards him like a delicate little flower.
Akiba - Slouch. He’s taller than Tei but he slouches so much they look the same height. When he wants to look cool he stands to his full height though. When he walks he veers to the left specifically. When he walks next to Tei, he bumps into him constantly which makes Tei mad. He is the only boy to spread eagle, and unlike Maekawa he leans back into his chair and rests his elbows on the back rest.
Been thinking about Hiroaki Nakamigawa.
In terms of backstory, we know that he's always known that he wanted to become a fashion designer. However, his parents were against it, focusing more on his grades. It came to a point where, during high school, they prohibited him from sewing or engaging with his passion until he performed better at school.
Despite this, he started running his business behind his parents' backs and became popular rather quickly, which led him to start hanging out with sketchy crowds that introduced him to their vices, leading him to develop an opioid and later heroin, addiction. It is obvious that he dabbled in those substances to fit in with the crowd but he strikes me as the type who priorities productivity above his own health so it wouldn't surprise me if he continued to indulge because they made him better at his job. He does mention at some point that his usage made him a better student.
It seems that his only real parental figure is his manager, Seiko, even saying that he misses her in his Student Spotlight.
Nakamigawa is an individual with an insatiable need to prove himself. To show the world what he is capable of. I'm assuming that his mediocre grades and the lukewarm relationship he has with his parents are the main causes. He takes pride in having made it through hard work alone, describing himself as "self-made". This leads me to believe he probably has a disdain toward fellow influencers who came from money.
In Blue, Ninomiya Youhei recognizes him as one of those influencers who constantly have meltdowns on streams and get into countless controversies, and looking at his Student Introduction video, it all checks out, as he's already criticising another public figure. But despite how emotional he seems, I don't doubt that his meltdowns are calculated on some level. He knows what to do, what to say and who to pick on in order to get attention.
Something that is striking about Nakamigawa is this duality he has, between this projected image of a successful, nonchalant teen millionaire who couldn't care less about "haters" and this insecure, emotional boy who spends his time obsessing over the people who criticise him. He even asks Seki, by the end of his Student Interview, after trash-talking the other students, if they mentioned him at all in their interviews, a clear indicator that despite what he might claim, he still cares about what these random people think of him in order to uphold his self-esteem.
I find him to be an interesting take of the "influencer" stereotype. This mess of insecurity and ego boosts and fragile fame and self-esteem intertwined with addiction and bad influences, all the while having no one who actually appreciates you. The superficiality of it all, the despair of it all.
This all culminates into the person we meet during the killing game.
Already, we can tell that he will be the antagonist character. He's brash, he's opinionated, he goes against the appointed leader (Sasaki Hitomi), and is the first one to suggest doubting each other rather than blindly working together.
I believe the reason he is so harsh towards Sasaki is because he sees her as a hypocrite. So when she tries to take the lead, acting like the paragon of moral righteousness, it is almost insulting. And the thing is, he was right. She did end up acting hypocritically, giving her punishment to Yanagi despite urging everyone else to take their punishments themselves and eventually killing someone despite being the first one to preach about "getting out of here together".
Although, that "I wonder how her grades got so high" comment was unnecessary.
Something I will command him for, is that he has a good head on his shoulders. He is one of the biggest contributors in every single class trial and has often been the one to figure out a decisive clue, like when he made the class realize that Okazaki had no peripheral vision, which meant that she walked right under Chiba's body.
And that's the thing about Nakamigawa. He makes the audience feel conflicted as he does bring up some good points and tries to help the group in his own way but also does not know when to keep his mouth shut. He always ends up going too far, saying the wrong thing and this makes him get on a lot of people's nerves. There are very few characters whom we see supporting Nakamigawa, such as Ojima and maybe Tsuno.
And speaking of Ojima...look. Their relationship directly mirrors Hasegawa and Kamimura's. We have the short, opinionated and brash one and the tall, calm and collected one who is there to calm them down. Both couples are codependent and have some sort of power imbalance. But when it comes to Ojima and Nakamigawa's relationship, it feels almost...forced.
Nakamigawa latched onto Ojima because of his looks. He said it himself that he would "look good next to me". But gradually, he began to use him as his diary. His therapist. Whenever something infuriated him or confused him or provoked a negative emotion, he would go to Ojima. Whether he was there mentally or Somewhere Else. It didn't matter, as long as the physical body was there.
After Chapter 4, he does warm up to him and starts directing his concerns toward him, but I cannot look over all the things he put Ojima through. For example, once Ojima finally tells him in the nicest way possible that he is the one sabotaging his own relationships and he needs to make an active effort to try and be better, he greets him with a suicide note later because he knew Ojima would check up on him. I understand that he genuinely was suicidal but that is not something I can personally forgive as it is not something you do to someone you love. And throughout all of this, Ojima does not act like a person in love but rather a therapist friend.
I do not consider Nakamigawa to be a bad person, as he does show his desire to be better, like when he gave Wada his makeover, allowed Ken to sleep in his room, his indignation over nobody taking responsibility over blinding Ken or when he made up with Tamba at the very end.
He isn't one of those vapid influencers who only think about their own personal gain and have no problem using other people as stepping stones to succeed. What's interesting is he tries to make people believe that he is like this but he clearly isn't. He is capable of empathy and guilt, like when he feels guilty over Sasaki's death. He has a sense of justice and cares about discipline and self-reliance. But he cannot help but chronically sabotage his opportunities to be better.
I do enjoy his interactions with Hasegawa. At the beginning, he calls him unremarkable and shows frustration over how secretive he is about himself and his relationship with Kamimura. But I think behind all this trash-talking is curiosity. How could someone so unremarkable, so frail, also be so rich and influential? How could this wallflower be this useful in trials? I think he is interested in Hasegawa because he sees potential in him. He sees that behind the fidgeting hands and shifty eyes is a cunning mind. And it kind of frustrates him that he limits his world to Kamimura and his family. Nakamigawa is all about ambition, showing all of you to the world. So he doesn't understand how someone so promising could possibly be content living such an otherwise simple life.
Nakamigawa's line of work is all about self-expression yet he himself is unable to show who he truly is, not only to the world but to himself. His pursuit for social acceptance tainted his opportunities to create real relationships. All the people he hangs out with are no different from actors who only hang out with each other to network, not because they care for each other. Even though sex is supposed to be a way to deepen the bond between two people who love each other, he's only slept with those girls for cheap clout.
How could anyone be happy living a life like this one?
