well, I mean considering they're not killing off any of the DR2 cast as the despair arc goes along, with a pretty large cast it makes sense that some characters would get shafted
but you barely learn anything about Ibuki as is in DR2
and the fact that she (and a couple others) got distinctly ignored concerning a certain event that they were shown to have been involved in doesn't give me any hope that I'm going to be seeing much of her
to be honest it comes off as a bit ooc of her to just going sadfais along with the rest of the crowd, considering her silly behavior on freaking Murder Island
yeah, it's unfortunate that a lot of the not-important-to-the-eventual-plot characters are just kind of... existing. kind of expected, IMO, but unfortunate.
(I mean, she's important to the Twilight Syndrome case, but they literally glossed over that whole thing. probably because it was already pretty fully developed in DR2.)
I'm thinking/hoping they might do more with the cast as a whole as they get to ~despair~, but that all depends on how long they keep the laser focus on Hinata and Nanami in the limited episode run they have.
Well, Hajime and Nagito are out of the picture for now, so maybe there is some hope yet... Also yes holy crap itsa me hi
course, the future arc people are getting a good amount of screentime here to explain things so who knows how much more they're gonna butt into despair arc xD;;
I'm hoping not much, tbh. Chisa's allowed because she's basically a despair arc character with a cameo in future arc so far, but please keep these guys mostly to their own arc...
I wanna know what's up with the SHSL imposter though... I mean didn't they initially transfer in as Byakuya???
I don't mind seeing them in despair arc to connect things
well, remember, Togami wasn't even in Hope's Peak at this point. it'd make no sense to imitate someone without a SHSL talent.
But then why does SHSL IMposter show up as Byakuya in the simulation?
since they think they're showing up at HOpe's peak for the first time
alas it's work time, gotta go
yeah, that's an unanswered question so far, and idk if they'll ever explain it in-universe...
