So you liked Danganronpa for 7 years? Thats a long actually. And liking Teruhina?

I want to know how you got into it.

Yup, I got fully into dr mostly dr2 when I like was fifteen to sixteen, when a friend brought the game up and how I would like a certain character in that game. Funny enough I knew about dr1 when I was thirteen to fourteen but didn’t get fully into it because it didn’t interest me at the time. But yeah that grimlin Teruteru is the reason, I still draw fanart of him and dr2 cast to this day, although I feel once I finished that bloody longfic of Teruteru/Hajime fanfic I’m taking a long break from it and focus on others thing like original projects.

How I get into Teruhina, well that interesting to be honest at first I ship them as a one sided attraction joke on Teruteru part but how I dived deeper into it was by a user named marisexmas they are not in fandom anymore but their Teruhina posts were really great they even made the fanfic of Teruhina they coin the ship practically. Other Teruhina shippers thoughout the years also helped my deep appreciation for the ship. It strange how I kinda became one of main artist for the ship, I wouldn’t be surprised if got a know for it but I don’t know because I probably not well known especially in the fandom so probably not ha ha.

Okay, the reason I ship it is because I love their dynamic as a couple there both people who hide who actually are to people Hajime comes off as sassy and level headed but deep down is very axinious about himself and his abilities. Teruteru is ashamed of his roots being from south japan on small island from the country side his accent his whole up-bringing, so he lies about himself and creates this greaser ladies man persona. He thinks will make him more likeable and get the attention of the ladies, but he still supports Hajime telling him he like Hajime for Hajime. Which is surprising given his need to cover his own real self behind a mask perhaps he see a kinship in Hajime or at least get Hajime in a way others can’t. (Although Chiaki and Komeada also kinda do it. It’s not fully the same thing or context :>)

(Also for love all things please don’t being that scene here, I know about it’s not great. But I heard so many times over the years so please no, honestly it pisses me off how one scene wreak a character so hard. Also I won’t let slap to the face/electric shock to my soul, stop me from enjoying it. Because I refuse outright to let a bad taste joke ruin a character and a ship for me.)

But yeah, it’s been my comfort ship for long time ha ha, like literally I still writing that long fic on them which chapter 5 is almost finished in of clean up finally because I finally decided to download use goggle docs to edited my work on. It not the same as using word but it will do.

#Sorry for talking so long to answer your question #Oh the irony I was writing this a few weeks back but then my 7 year dr hyperfestion came to an end thanks to getting back into one piece #I never been so happy because I found people to talk to again and be passionate with. Like one piece is the reason I’m writing again #I’m doing a oneshot which is helping get back into the groove of writing and after it done I’m going finish editing ch5 of my longfic #Because like I have 14 chapter in notes and I still have a soft for the dr but it taken a backseat currently #Anyway enough of my rambling I hope this answer your question Anon again sorry for taking so long >V<‘

Is it just me or your comment about Teruteru thinking it might be a joke if someone really wanted to date him?

Do you think he may take relationships as a joke too, or maybe doesn't take it seriously because he thinks people won't accept for who he is?

I'm interested to see your opinion. I was kind of confuse about it.

And I agree. I don't prefer Beta Teruteru. It looks too similar to Mondo.

Sorry for the confusion, I’m not the best at explaining my thoughts or expressing them but I’ll try. Hmm, I feel he put on persona of city boy thinking that actually personality and country roots might not be attractive or as appealing as being cool city boy who gets all the ladies with his charm and worries that he might not be taken seriously, given how the other react to just his accent in the trial there might some truth to it.

I do believe Teruteru takes relationship very seriously and has fantasies on being home a wife to meet his Mama and get married. But due his low opinion of roots he hides away along with parts of his personality because he believes pretending to be a city boy and lying about himself will make him more likeable and appealing.

when he flirting with other I believe he not being as serious with them mostly, because he sees as messing about and cracking jokes but they backfire on him and his persona doesn’t help with him coming off as a narcissistic jerk and perverted creep. Does Teruteru take some relationship as joke kinda he does want loving relationships but has a hard time expressing himself without that cityboy persona.

But in his freetime with Hajime and his trial we see parts of the real him. With Hajime freetime and his guide to the heart with see how much he treasure there friendship even though he has developed a crush on Hajime he too shy and probably low self esteem to tell him how he feels normally and it also sweet how he cares about Hajime well being more then his own.

I feel Teruteru is just someone who keep a lot of his deep feelings to himself especially romantic ones, given he not good at expressing them without coming off a bit lewd in nature and also he fears no one will accept him for him. (Although Hajime getting know him his family and mama is probably why Teruteru is most attach to him because he feels like Hajime truly gets him, ops get bit shippy at the end ha ha 😅)

The dating part I mostly thinking given how unpopular Teruteru is someone would treat dating Teruteru as a dare, prank or joke because who would date Teruteru hanamura, so if Teruteru had to deal with pranks like say as child growing up, or hope peaks he probably be very sceptical when comes how genuine the relationship is, so he doesn’t take seriously or get attach.

yeah beta Teruteru looks way to similar to Mondo that probably why they went a different direction with his design although it funny that his design comes Nekomaru old beta designs. (Although I like using beta Teruteru as inspiration for Teruteru half siblings because I like the idea of them being the opposite to Teruteru.

Hello I don't have Ao3 account, but I wanted to ask a question about Chapter 4 of your fanfiction.

Is Teruteru and his family native speaker of French? I'm wondering if he is mix French and Japanese if that makes sense. Or if there is a unique background or story of Teruterus family in your story that makes them that way. (You don't have to tell if it is a spoiler)

Also I'm happy you released your recent Chapter ! I'm looking forward to it, and take your time

Thank you, glad you been enjoying the story far and to answer your question it kinda my way of doing Teruteru accent since it labeled Cajun in the English translation on every source I find it label his accent as Cajun, Cajun is a southern American accent that has french mix into it. (Although, the dr2 games it sound like just a heavy southern American accent but I digress.)

You see in the Japanese version Teruteru accent is kansei ban accent/dialect maybe Tosa-ben accent/dialect depending on where he lives kochi prefecture in which is almost impossible to translate into English since there no counter back to it so closest way of betraying it in spirt, is by happening a think southern accent or by having an accent that has a mixture of another another language as well. (It kinda suppose to hard other people to understand them at first due the think accent and heavy use of different vowels that best way I can describe it.

Now don’t quote me on that I’m no expert when it comes to localisation of language but I thought it was strange to not have Teruteru know french or even use french words in his way of talking when his accent is used, since he has a Cajun accent which has french mix into the southern American accent. So I made him mix in french words in his way of speaking when around his mother, younger half siblings and hometown he lived in hope that makes sense. Just think of it as my way of localising his way of speaking, I hope that make sense. ^^’ sorry if a little confusing ha ha…

Also about his background it the mostly the same as the games but with of my imagination sprinkled into it but I can’t tell you because spoilers. Don’t worry I will be taking my time with future chapters quality first and foremost and I’m happy your looking forward to future chapters. :)

ps feel free to comment of chapter as an anon if you like, I don’t mind and I love people thoughts on story so far.

#Yup this is why my Teruteru with his southern accent has french words in between his English now you know

Apparently you sent me Teruteru and Slurpuff fanart in my inbox, how long ago was that? Also I Teruteru can work as a ship as long as he's been completely toned down or just be a flirty instead of a pervy character.

Oh I see I think that send that in February so a couple months ha ha. I hope you like the art. :)

hmm depends on what you mean by tone down because I think it gets a bit complicated because I believe Teruteru need to be a bit an ass to grow as character and I don’t think removing his love of sex is helpful and I think it take away from his character and the real problem is his lack of awareness or respect for others personal space and talking about sex when other don’t want to and he ignores that. Also you have to keep in mind his backstory implies some pretty f up might have happened to him but if your referring to the harassment to the unfunny gag being toned down or outright remove then I agree to a degree.

It’s complicated to explain but I think it okay for him to be unlikeable and have serious flaws because I do feel the reveal in his trial that he has a heart and does care about people it can work but I feel it poorly executed mostly they relied to heavily on jokes which left little room for the rest of his character traits to shine. I honestly do think a boy who pretends to be city playboy who gets swept in that fantasy of what thinks a cool city boy would be like who needs a harsh reality check , has a troubled childhood and care deeply about his sickly Mama and want nothing but for her, his family and their restaurant.

Sounds good on paper, sadly though since he a comic relief character/ joke character he rarely get to anything but comic relief which is a real shame really. Which why I’m doing my fanfic on him and it been challenging I honestly think Teruteru is one of harder characters to write for because he so complicated yet simple, to be honest writing this fanfic made me appreciate him even more and I think I’m getting a better understanding on where to take him, hopefully I’ll do him justice.

As for Shipping I think Teruteru needs a mature partner or someone who on his level or can at least understand him in a way but that’s just me. Also I think calling him just pervy character kinda neglect the other parts of his character and kinda does a bit of disservice to him by saying he just a one dimensional perv but hey that’s just my opinion and your entitled to your own.

Ps sorry for doing a an mini essay (I hope no one ask to an in depth essay on him because i’m not doing it maybe…probably not) anyway thank you for the ask and I hope you like the artwork of him with slurpuff and swirlix. :)
