This sprite is so funny. If you tried to insult komaeda he would just agree with you most of the time but I feel like if you said something that struck a particular nerve he would make this face for a split second and then go back to agreeing with you
kid: dad what's danganronpa 2?
me: it's a game i used to like a lot
Kid: do you have a pic?? 😨📷
me: yes
kid: but that's... uncle hajime! and uncle fuyuhiko, and aunt chiaki... and... THAT'S MOMMY!!
*door opens*
nagito komaeda: im home 🥰🥰🥰
I feel like what people don't get about Komaeda is that he acts the way he does because he genuinely believes it's what's best for everyone. At the root of his mindset is earnest goodwill that is buried under years of years of trauma and warped thinking. And I don't mean to say-
Dr fans not understanding that Hajime and Nagito were intentionally made to mirror each other and the themes of the game would be less potent if they weren't because they have a hate boner for Nagito or something
some of u guys desperately need to understand that sometimes two characters are so intertwined with one another that it’s almost impossible to properly talk about one without mentioning the other. and that’s okay. even if you hate a ship you need to be able to recognize this.
Obviously he already hated mikan for being in despair but I think bringing up his bitchlessness is the one insult that would genuinely make him angry and do this stupid little face
Also people complain about nagito mischaracterization but I'm literally fighting a war in the hajime mischaracterization trenches. HE WOULD NOT SAY THAT!!!!!
he's INCAPABLE of malice which is very obviously not the case. But he has a level of duality between this malice and goodwill that I don't see properly balanced very often.
I'm opening one commission slot atm, first come first serve. Contact me here or on discord (@/komakamu) if interested! Please say it's for a commission if you're adding me on discord though
This isn't vaguing anyone in particular but I hate when people flatten down Komaeda's character so much so he's "kinnable" and relatable and generic and not even himself because people kin him and have to make him as generically palatable as possible
Komahina literally drives me insane because Komaeda was conceptualized as a character that "couldn't empathize and couldn't be empathized with" and the one person he's able to connect with in this world is Hajime because on some level he's the same person as him im gonna puke
Best (worst) dr takes i've seen so far mostly about Komaeda
1. Komaeda is hopesexual (a classic)
2. Komaeda fakes his personality or his low self esteem is an act
3. Izuru is a metaphor for Hajime's depression
4. Comparing Kokichi to Komaeda in any way
5. "Komahina is abusive"
