i finished my bingo card! inspiration taken directly from this post.

it’s mostly filled with things i’ve talked about already but there are a couple in here i haven’t shared yet. i do have an idea who i think the traitor could be but i don’t wanna say anything definitive. also i only realize now i think my grammar is completely shot but oh well.

text id under the cut

[id: a teal gradient 5 by 5 bingo board, titled “last bingo academy”. the options, ordered starting from the top left corner and going across each line, is as follows:

nozomi and kaura are somehow the same person

eito loses his mind and kills takumi in an ending

shouma survives over 50% of the endings

kurara face reveal BUT only in the harder to get endings

twins’ backstory involves watching their parents die

one of the students are working for the invaders

yugamu is not actually an assassin, just a chunni

kaura’s mom’s “research” is connected to hemoanima

tsubasa has a sprite/cg where she fully throws up

eito’s illness will prevent him from using hemoanima at one point

neither the lda or trc are simulations; both are real places

in order to get any Eito Yaoi Moments, you have to let nozomi die

People Die (Free Space)

takumi gets an “ultimate upgrade”

gaku dies in over 50% of the endings

darumi will be the most common perma-death for first time players

hiruko willingly sought out lda

there will be multiple endings where takumi dies but you continue playing as someone else

takumi can get multiple relationship teases depending on who he hangs out with

nigou and sirei fucking HATE each other

there will be bad/neutral endings that accounts for everyone being alive

takumi’s mom was aware of lda and knows where her son is

hemoanima will be revealed to be slowly corrupting/killing them

you will have to obtain multiple (5+) endings to reach the “golden”/best/canon ending

hemoanima originated from the invaders, humans cannot naturally use it

/end id.]

i like how tsubasa in her hemoanima class armour has a little hood. i just like it

^the hood in question

YES IT’S SO INCREDIBLY CUTE!!!!! for the longest time i thought that was the headrest of the car seat HFKFJSKFJFKGJ BUT IT IS INDEED A HOOD!! powered up and ready to Hit People With Her Car. also, she’s covered completely in a white jumpsuit under the uniform, similar the white jumpsuit that’s tied around her waist in her “civilian” form!

and since you came all this way, i actually wanted to talk a little about hiruko’s design! because i love how similar her ‘civilian’ form and her hemoanima form are, silhouette wise!

the color palette, the skirt slit, even the white part of her shirt looking similar to the white tie she gets in her hemoanima form! i wonder, since we know she’s been fighting the invaders for much longer than any of the other characters we know about, if her hemoanima form is actually pulling from her civilian form, making it similar to what she had been fighting in (as similar as one can make it within the confines of it having to look like a seifuku)?

using my absolute dogshit photo creating powers on photopea, i bring you my headcanon:

it is only a headcanon right now bc we don’t have the full game out yet. i will summon bisexual takumi being canon out of the depths of hell if i must.

feel free to use it if you want???? you can use with no credit i legit just slapped this guy in front of the bisexual flag.

i do like how some parts of lda are like so obviously anti-danganronpa. killing game? ‘course not, y’all are now comrades, teamwork is key! in fact, anyone who dies will be revived by us, and the game mechanics encourage you to sacrifice a team member to win! huh, trapped in a school? i mean, in the sense that home is miles away and you will be killed eventually if you try to run for it, but no we are giving you explicit tools to Leave and explore outside the school for supplies, hell a major story beat happens off of school grounds. plus, the school is very open! you’re not walled in with shudders over the screen, your dorms are literally on the roof, exposing you to a sun that you have never seen before as the sky goes up forever.

… actually, i wonder if we’ll explore the themes of suddenly being given access to an unfamiliar type of freedom instead of being trapped, like how i bet we’ll explore themes of teamwork in these battles instead of inherent distrust in a killing game.

ignore how you can count the pixels in this photo. imagine being told that you get a custom weapon that reflects who you are inside and your weapon is Jeep Wrangler Made From Your Blood. this is the situation she’s in. i love it.

eito’s skill names in english. WHICH COULD MEAN NOTHING.

[tsubasakawanadefenseforce]

god i wonder. i wonder i wonder i wonder if the pods darumi very obviously points out in the demo are a red herring. i’m sure they’ll be central to plenty of routes, but i so genuinely wonder if their purpose will change in a couple of routes, or turn out to be entirely irrelevant in at least one. they usually NEVER draw attention to stuff like that this quickly.

hiruko thinking sirei is adorable is so fun to me. she absolutely has one of those plushies that look like a bacteriophage.
