There's also the Danganronpa 3 anime as well, which acts as a conclusion to the 1+2 story. Even if you don't watch it it might be worth reading up on the plot to get the answers to unanswered questions and loose ends tied up.

I might actually go check out the anime

I know there's an anime based on DR:THH, and there's a 2nd one after DR:GD, but do I need to play V3 before watching the anime?

No, V3 came out after.

V3 has nothing to do with the anime or anything that came before it.

alright time for full character rankings from the first two games

Top Tier
Sakura
Ibuki Mioda
Nekomaru
Aoi
Gundham

Great
Mahiru
Baby Gangsta
Nagito
Chihiro
Chiaki
Junko

Good
Kyoko
Mondo
Hajime
Makoto
Akane
Sonia

Neutral
Byakuya
Sayaka
Fat Byakuya/????
Taka
Leon
Hiyoko

Bad
Peko
Hifumi
Monokuma
Hiro
Celeste
Kazuichi

Garbage
Mikan
Teruteru
Toko

why the fuck is this squeaky masochistic diaper bunny a main character
Usami/Monomi

Byakuya's appearance in 2 made him go up a bit for me (I like him just a bit more now, knowing he stayed with the other survivors to help fix the world instead of just continuing to be an asshole)

Fat Byakuya was kind of a wasted potential. I really thought him being the Ultimate Imposter would come up again but then it never did so what was even the point?

Sonia started pretty low but gradually got better. Never got a ton of characterization but she was great in the funhouse trial

Baby Gangsta went from being one of the worst characters to one of the best, and probably had the best growth as a character of anyone

Peko was neutral until her last scene, which kind of sucked, mostly for dragging out a kind of dumb thing WAY too long

Mahiru's only not top tier because she died so quick. Same probably applies for Chihiro.

Most of the people in the good-great section could be shuffled around depending on the day. Also hard to compare characters who had excellent growth (Baby Gangsta, Nagito) to characters who just had few but great standout scenes (Junko, Gundham) and characters who get points for being adorable (Aoi, Mahiru)

Monokuma I never liked much (never really go for mascot characters in general, and he was particularly annoying more often than not) but Monomi was the worst thing to happen in either of the games by a mile. Worst BGM theme in the game, horrible design (why is it in a diaper?!?), and the interactions between Monomi and Monokuma ranged from annoying to so cringe-worthy I wanted to shut the game off. What the fuck was with the brother/sister thing? Why is this ok?

D E L I C I O U S

This technique, it's impossible to defend against it or evade it!

Generally speaking, I think that's a good character ranking! I'd move some people around but nothing too drastic.

Monomi [...] Worst BGM theme in the game

what

Monomi's theme song was a highlight. And the only great/redeeming feature she had!

Also I wanna say

While overall some of the ending stuff threw me a bit, the plot twist that the 15 characters were actually the Remnants of Despair was so good. Puts everything that happened in the game in such a weird light, it's actually really cool to think about. I just wish it had included like one picture of them as Remnants of Despair, just something to make it a little easier to believe, because even after the game confirms it it's hard for your brain to actually process that all the nice characters were actually horrifying killers and monsters prior to the game. I mean Nagito with Junko's hand kind of gets there, but Nagito was crazy anyway so it's not really surprising.

I love the added dimension it adds to Nagito's plan that he was actually trying to eliminate the Remnants of Despair, himself included, in Case 5 while sparing the one "innocent" person present in the traitor. Also his personality shift after he got the records in Chapter 4 but those largely overlap.

Yeah. It's not my favorite from the game or anything, but it was definitely in the upper tier for me.

seconding this

fwiw I actually think original-form Usami is p cute, and her theme song is great, but yeah the design change to Monomi is horrid. also her EN voice is a big downgrade, an exception to the DR2/V3 localizations generally being quite good!

In regards to DR3, I wouldn't get your hopes up. Kind of feels like Kodaka didn't get enough time to do what he wanted and it's super simplified and dumbed down. Basically, everything I thought was cool about the 2-6 revelations it says "lol naw son". Fine in a vacuum, not as an addition to the franchise.

so I tried looking up images of them as the Remnants of Despair and found these (along with some cool individual character fanart)

Highly recommend watching the DR3 anime, it's... well, it's a mixed bag is all I'll say about it, but it is worth watching if you've bought into Danganronpa by now.

By the way, if you do, please note that the watch order is Future 1 - Despair 1 - Future 2 - Despair 2 - etc, I have seen people mess this up and get confused, watching in this order isn't optional

I don't get the Mahiru love. I thought the bit where she got all preachy on Kuzuryuu for taking revenge on his sister's murderer was baffling, and honestly what happened to her next is pretty unsurprising.

And yeah I didn't like Mahiru at first, but looking at her freetime events I really warmed up to her. Of course it helps that I'm a damn sucker for redheds(And yes, freckles are a big plus). She's actually sweet and sympathetic once you get past her rough exterior. It's just that you have to go out of your way to find it because she dies pretty quickly.

And then in V3 they introduced Tenko who is legitimately sexist and overall worse in every conceivable way

On an unrelated note "Geez" is such a great soundclip. Hiyoko also has it and it's probably the one thing I like about her.

no, Tenko is definitely a worse man-hater than Mahiru and inferior to Ibuki in every way.
