Maritime Danganronpa: Ennui's Effigy - Intro Post!

16 ultimates are trapped in a seaside hotel and forced into a sick game of sacrifices by a skeletal animatronic fish.

Welcome to a side project of mine, Maritime Danganronpa: Ennui's Effigy, or mdree for short.

I have no plans currently to release this as a video series, game, or fanfic. This whole blog is just for fun at the moment, but I may decide to convert this into a proper finished project. Think of this blog as documenting what I have so far. Any details released here are subject to change in the future.

Meet the Ultimates!

My fangan takes place in an alternative universe where the Ultimate Program was an American scholarship program to fuel the work ethic of the younger generations. There are 80 ultimates at a time, but these 16 were the ones selected for this killing game.

Hi!! Just wanted to say your fangan kinda inspired me to get back into danganronpa a little and revamp some of my old ocs ( and make new ones ) for my own fangan! Idk if I’m gonna do anything crazy with it like a video series or a game but at the very least I’d like to write a script for it

Btw if it’s alright to ask can you tell me abt the victims/killers in the game ( and possibly the executions if you thought that far )

Also tangentially related but when I was looking through old sketchbooks I stumbled upon my old idea for a littlest pet shop show ronpa that combined the 2012 series and AWOOO ( the pets are humanized in it )

Hi! That’s really cool to hear! I’d love to see/hear about some of your characters some time if you wouldn’t mind.

Big content warning for descriptions of death below the cut! Also it's very long.

The death order past the third chapter isn’t that refined yet, but I can talk a little bit about the first three killers and victims.

Chapter 1’s killer and victim are the two I’ve revealed so far, Tyler and Solomon, respectively. Tyler’s motive can be pretty succinctly described as “I want to get out!!!”. To him, it was only a matter of time before someone commits a murder that is impossible to solve and they all die. Being a logical person, he decides to kill off the one person who has solved actual murders before. Unfortunately for him, Emily, the protagonist, takes up Solomon’s role of lead detective and solves the case. Tyler is voted guilty and unworthy, so he is taken away to the execution chamber.

Tyler’s Execution is titled ‘Rising sea levels, temperature, and acidification: Simulated impacts of global warming on the oceans and its effect on Homo sapiens’. It’s themed around his work as an oceanographer focusing on climate change. It involves Tyler being chained up in an aquarium filled to his chin where skeleton animatronics (which will help out in every execution) conduct experiments on the water. A skeleton turns a dial and the aquarium is flooded with carbon dioxide, which raises the water temperature and level. This happens again and again until the dial pops off its socket. Now, the water is boiling and beginning to acidify. The water level is above his head, but the pain makes Tyler let out a scream, losing any oxygen. The tank is filled with bubbles and steam, obscuring the view until the tank explodes from the pressure. Once the steam clears, all that’s left of Tyler is lying in front of the spectator’s window.

This is the only execution I have written out. I have a whole short story version of it that I might post later. For the others, the ideas are too vague to post about. Also, I want to keep some things about the other chapters secret for now. I will tell you a little bit about the motives for each, though.

Chapter 2’s official motive (like the one handed out by Skelefin) is called Historical Fiction Double Feature, where every night, two short films would be shown about the dirty secrets of two contestants. They are all something that would reveal a weakness that could be taken advantage of in the murder, or a secret that they would rather kill than have someone know about. Most of the movies can be easily connected to a contestant, but there is one that is much darker and more cryptic than the others. One thing is clear: Whoever this movie is about is already a killer. This movie is in fact the movie of the murderer for this chapter. Since it’s so hard for the others to figure out, they think no one will be able to connect it to them. Someone does find out though, and wants to confront them about it so they can blackmail the killer into doing their bidding. However, the killer strikes first. The contestants are able to connect the film to them and they are executed.

Chapter 3’s motive itself is a bit spoiler-y but let’s just say the killer has someone that they are sure is the mastermind. Instead of killing them, they decide to keep their suspect locked up to interrogate and negotiate with them. They keep them imprisoned for a few days without anyone noticing because by that point, that character is mostly a reclusive. One of the killer's closest companions finds the killer while interrogating their suspect. The killer freaks out but manages to strangle their friend without too much of a struggle. Realizing their prisoner would be a key witness in their trial, they kill them too. They then move their friend to their friends room, where they stage a suicide. Luckily or unluckily, depending how you look at it, their friend was only knocked out by being strangled and instead died after being hanged. This made the framing more believable, but also made this whole case a tragedy for our killer. Even tragic villains must face punishment, decide the contestants, so this killer is executed.

I’m sorry I didn’t have more in terms of executions. They are not my strong suit.

Feel free to ask any questions if something was confusing.
