About Monokuma (Spoilers)

[MisterWytt]

So, in the first game, Junko dies. And in the sequel, she's resurrected as the final boss of the game as some computer data/virus/etc.

Do you think she will be "resurrected" yet again in the sequel? This is like... Megaman X all over again.

[Shirsh]

In theory remnants could made a backup (but being so fanatical they could drool on one and only instead), there also another plotline from Ultra Despair Girls that can be used.

Pretty sure they said Junko will no longer be the antagonist.
But UDG spoilers: TWO Junko AI's were the villains in Ultra despair girls, so theres a chance one still remains.

I'm hoping that in and of herself, Junko is not the antagonist in the DR3 game. I'm fine with Junko coming back in some shape or form in the DR3 anime.

I'd also be fine with (UDG spoilers): Monaca Towa realized as the second coming of Junko Enoshima.

Honestly my only issue with that would be that anyone who played UDG could predict that twist, which is kinda lame.

[Superfield]

Some people had a real problem with Enoshima returning in this game. I am not among them. I felt she actually had a much better presence and performance in this finale. And I think that it was acceptable to allow Enoshima one "villain resurrection" ticket.

But only one.

If they bring Enoshima back again, especially after they quite clearly laid the character to rest at the end of this game, then I will have a MAJOR problem.

But, fortunately, DR:AE has set up a new villain for the storyline (which will be ending soon), and that plot thread (and a few others from DR:AE) have yet to be resolved. And they'd better resolve them, because that recent trailer for the DR3 anime that summarized the story thus far didn't even mention DR:AE, which is... a tad disconcerting.

It all depends on how they handle it. Heck, that might be what the DR3 anime gets out of the way first. This game handed us the "memory loss" plot point in the first chapter when that was the big twist of DR1; maybe they'll give us the identity of the mastermind in the first few episodes of DR3.

[Hydris]

I don't see it happening. She's contained in the Neo-World program and the shutdown sequence erases her without uploading her to anyone.

And I think reviving her (again) loses it's impact after the first time.

I have a feeling AE was left out of the trailer because it was just a "hero of another story" type deal. DR3 focuses more on the story of Hope's Peak, and AE really had nothing to do with that. It might get touched on in the Despair Chapter, but it might not be relevant agai until DRV3.

I'm pretty sure the developers aren't going to have Dangan Ronpa 3 be related to Hope's Peak Academy in any way, from what I've read. The anime is closing the events of Hope's Peak Academy.

[LimeCatMaster]

Uh... yeah? That's what I'm saying? You realize that DR3 IS the anime, right?

The game is DRV3.

I was referring to the video game. Dangan Ronpa 2 is actually called Super Dangan Ronpa 2, but everyone just calls it Dangan Ronpa 2 because the extra bits on the title are just annoying.

Way to make it confusing then.
Its not hard to add a V to it.

But... why? Wether you call DR2 just "Dangan Ronpa 2" or "Super Dangan Ronpa 2", people know what you're talking about. But if you call the game Dangan Ronpa 3, that makes no sense at all, considering there's already another thing actually called DR3. And as pointed out, it's a V. One singular keystroke is all you need to make a clear difirence. Are you really that lazy?
