I Use The Internet To Hint At My Rich Inner World

Currently rewatching Maki's freetime events and FUCK I remember why I started shipping saimaki in the first place

free my man

listen. the fact that there are no maki/shuichi solo scenes except for the night they train without kaito is a crime. the fact that maki/kaito/shuichi has more scenes together than literally any other combination of characters in all of danganronpa? Gold

I don't wanna derail the post but I saw someone talking about how the way Kokichi died would have been the most ideal to him, because there wouldn't be a body for anyone to see how he felt in his final moments. So he gets to die without that mask ever slipping off or for anyone to see his true self even in his final moments...

... Except, Kaito did.

Kaito knows how Kokichi behaved in his final moments. Whether or not he cried or screamed or wailed. Whether or not he was scared or at peace or thought he deserved the death he brought upon himself. He knows his final words, or if he didn't have anything left to say.

He knows. He knows, and brought that secret with him to his own grave.

yeah he was questioning alright

my brain is dangin on the ronpa

Did anyone else just hear a single angelic note

"Kaito literally punched Shuichi just for crying!" is an obscenely widespread sentiment when there's only one person crying in that scene, and it isn't Shuichi.

Shuichi isn't crying in the lead-up to this, either; he cries before Kaede is executed, and afterwards just goes completely silent, in a state of shock, while the other students freak out around him for a good few minutes. Which is the real reason why Kaito punched him:

So no, he didn't punch Shuichi for "being sad and crying". Still totally unreasonable on Kaito's part, but it's wild just how many people get this chain of events completely backwards. If anything, Kaito is angry that Shuichi isn't acting more upset.
