What was wrong with Danganronpa: The Animation?
>>
poor adaptation of a shit source
>>
>>140796328
Easy answer is that it only had 13 episodes, amd had to blast through the story to do it.

Harder answer would be that it couldn't replicate the game properly. A big part of the game was giving the player choice in who they talked to and got to know. This let the player selectively gravitate towards characters they liked, and could worry about their fate. Seeing a character you invested your time and emotional energy into be killed, be tuebkiller (and then killed), or survive each chapter helped let the player decide who to worry about, and made the stakes more personal to them.

The anime didn't have this, and by its nature couldn't let viewers take extra time to connect with a specific character of their choosing, so there wasn't as strong of a connection and investment in seeing your favorites live or die.

They pretty much threw any sense of maturity out the window when they made this bear the series' mascot and antagonist.
>>
>>140797464
I can tell you haven't watched or played it because the gore is honestly pretty scarce, and the blood is like a light pink anyways for some reason

The executions are really dumb too

The appeal is like >>140797148 said, and trying to see if you can figure out the puzzle on your own before the trial reveals it to you

With that being said, does anyone know if there will be a 3rd game like the first two or if we're just getting some dumb anime?

It existed when it shouldn't have.
The vn medium never translates well into anime medium. Not enough screentime to spend on your waifus.

It was rushed.I liked it though because it got me into the game, and the game is brilliant. I really want to play the second one but I don't wanna shell over $30 for it heh

>>140797729
The blood color was to avoid CERO (nip ESRB/PEGI) giving Danganronpa a high age rating (It's the same reason why the nip release of MGR Revengeance has white blood instead of red)
The nips who played the game liked it and felt it fit the game's mood, so it stuck as a signature of the franchise

Even the best vg plots are actually very bad if you take them out of the media

be inside interacting in a story is very different than just watch it passively

It's not the "mature" content that makes people like it, otherwise there would be way better games to play (Corpse Party being the obvious one). The game has basically no gore and the blood is NEON PINK, the antagonist is controlling a robotic bear and it consists of satirical stereotypical character types it isn't at all about maturity. It's just a good game story. Unfortunately this isn't a possible in an anime since the story line must be linear and the Danganronpa story isn't massive enough to expand much greater than 13 episodes. But the anime did do it's job at attracting attention to the game series before the PS Vita remastered version.
