29. Which character should have survived in your opinion?
Well, I would say Nagito because of everything but according to the DR3 anime, everyone in DR2 is alive (Except for Chiaki) so he’s out. Everyone in DR1 I felt fit their roles, well except for one but we’ll get into him later. DRV3 is one I”m a little iffy on who they picked as victims and survivors. I guess I actually say Gonta. Gonta in my opinion is that innocent cinnamon roll that either should die at Chapter 1 or just survive because of the story. As much as I love Chapter 4′s trial, I feel so bad that Gonta had to have that role. And I just think...he should have been able to live happily with all his friends that he loved. Again, I understand why they did what they did, but I just feel he should have survived all the way to the end. As for Kaede? Well if anyone has played DRV3, you know that Kaede should have never died. She never fucking killed anyone and therefore was wrongly accused. Technically all of them should have been dead because the real one was never executed. Plus she had so much potential as a character and I get why they did what they did but doesn’t mean I’m not salty for it. Plus again they went against their own rules, like I get why but man low blow guys. The ending would have been nice with her but I accept what we got. Also if we’re also going into Despair Girls? Yuta. Yuta all the way. He did not deserve the fate he got. I wanted him and Aoi to meet up and the two to be a family again. But nope, we got the feels. Why game, whyyyyy? Again there’s other people I feel should have survived, like most of the victims but overall? Those are the top people I think of. __________________________________________________________
30. Which character would’ve deserved to survive?
Would’ve deserved? Oooh, that’s a tough question. Like there’s not an easy answer, looking at the characters. Because I feel a lot deserved to survive but some had questionable methods. I can say for sure, none of the murderers in DR1. They truly deserved what they got and I accept that. DR2′s characters all survived according to the anime so we rule them out. Against except Chiaki but I have my own opinion on her death. ( Yes she should have lived but in a way it’s good she didn’t? I’ll explain if anyone asks ) DRV3′s murderers well I can say 3 should have survived and absolutely deserved to but if we have to pick one out of all the characters?I have to say Sakura deserved the most to survive. Sakura yes died on her own terms but I feel she deserved to win and take down Junko. She was technically not a murderer because it was herself. Think about all that she did as the traitor and it wasn’t even for a selfish reason. It was to protect the people she cared about. She was forced to become Monokuma’s mole and deceiving her own friends ATE at her over and over. Can you imagine the guilt someone went through, knowing that she’s working for the enemy? It probably also messed with her moral code as well. Then when Monokuma outed her for what she was and forcing all this discord on her and of course forcing her to find an out by killing herself. I know this was her own wish but if Monokuma hadn’t done those things, Sakura never would have done so. Which yes, her death was necessary for the plot but I feel like it could have gone the same way if she had survived and everyone came together. Plus she could have rebuilt everything when they got out. So yeah, those are the reasons I think Sakura deserved to survive. Going by character personality and what not.

31. Is there a character you think who shouldn’t have survived but did?
Hagakure. 100% Hagakure. Like I like Hagakure as a character, much much more than Hifumi. But seriously, he was caught in two attempted murders and didn’t die. I was just waiting for the next victim to be him, I never played the demo but I get why they didn’t make him a victim. Would have been too obvious. Like I’m not happy Touko survived either but she at least had a reason and she got her time to shine later. Hagakure has not shined at all since DR1. Even in the anime he was just there outside the Future Foundation. It felt like he did nothing and just survived by dumb luck. I mean I’m not a fan of Sonia surviving in DR2 but she at least did something. But yes, Hagakure should not have survived but I guess that’s how the writers made it be.
