ive had a bit of dr nostalgia lately and wanted to draw the gang but also spice it up so heres some talentswap designs!! swaps were done randomly lol but i think all of them turned out really cool
ok heres the titles + notes:
ultimate affluent progeny aoi asahina (very nice but doesnt know what a banana costs)
ultimate pop idol sakura oogami (strong, wise, beautiful singing voice. the perfect woman)
ultimate clairvoyant toko fukawa (shut-in haunted by visions. also believes in conspiracy theories)
ultimate programmer mukuro ikusaba (least noticable person in the room. will hack your mom)
ultimate soldier junko enoshima (her peppy exterior hides a dark past….)
ultimate fashionista yasuhiro hagakure (secretly goofy model dude)

ultimate moral compass chihiro fujisaki (struggles with getting taken seriously because of how weak they are)
ultimate writing prodigy mondo oowada (snarky stuck up poet. an utena prince type)
ultimate martial artist kiyotaka ishimaru (literally just rock lee with a mullet)
ultimate gambler hifumi yamada (wants to be cool sooo bad. secretly likes dnd but only talks about card games)
welp this was a fun thing to try and if i can find the time i might do the gang from sdr2 or drv3!
Last one done! I have a few more paired up, but I don’t really feel like drawing them. Also, to get this over with…
I am so sorry. Chihiro doesn’t deserve this, I know. But neither did Nina.
I would like to do some alternate ones next since I feel like there were some characters that could have worked just as well in diffrent places. For example, I paired Peko with Lanfan, but she could have worked as Hawkeye as well. Let me know if you have any suggestions or any characters you would specifically like to see me pair. Also, be sure to go look at all the previous ones! Part Three:
DR1 Cast as Things My Roommates and I Have Said: 2nd Year Addition
Makoto:Literally no one here is okay. This includes me. I’m not fine. I am very full of anxiety. Please help me.
Kyoko:You don’t have to be a detective to know that you’re a piece of shit.
Togami: Oh, we are WELLpast the point of discovering I’m an asshole. You don’t get to be surprised.
Aoi: I really wanted dessert, but I didn’t have anything in the house… so I just went downstairs and ate an entire jar of sprinkles. Do you think I’ll die??
Mondo: *in the background, chanted without emotion* What the fuck? What the fuck? What the fuck? What the fuck? What the fuck? What the fuc-
Chihiro: I am very frightened and would like to go home, and also a pinata. I have been good and I deserve one. That is all. Thank you for your time.
Ishimaru:Hey, y’all! I know it’s not cool to follow rules in this wasteland God has abandoned, but I must inform you that the laws of physics do still remain in place the next time you decide to attempt to throw an entire loaf of bread onto the balcony.
Sakura:I am not usually an angry person… but you, sir, fill me with an absolutely ungodly amount of rage.
Hifumi:Told a girl on Bumble that she looked like this one cat girl in an anime… no response so far, but I’ll keep you posted.
Celeste:I’m neither smart or hard-working enough to be getting an A in this class, but I am an incrediblygood liar.
Sayaka:Can whoever is singing Taylor Swift’s “Haunted” in the basement this loudly at 2 A.M. learn to hit the notes? I don’t care about the noise, but girl, you ain’t doing this song justice.
Leon:Oh, come on! Do I look like the kind of person who people are going to care about if they died during this?
Hagakure:The stars said we’re either going to get to stay for another six weeks or we’ll be going home tomorrow… so… I’m honestly more confused than when I started.
Toko:I’m just going to stay in the library with my book and hope I die there!
Junko:*while clapping*Say it with me! Pretty! Girls! Can! Commit! Arson!!
Mukuro:*holding a knife* If you don’t stop being stupid, this is going to stop being called “the kitchen” and start being called “the place they found that dude’s body one time”.
More Sakura action game thoughts, this time with a little Towa City and some user suggestions, woo! Shout out to @eristrocratand@mariogman25 for them!
Now some more thoughts below the line. I still have to think about what I want to do with Nagito, maybe for next post unfortunately xD
Towa City:
Like in the drawing and how I drew it in this post, Komaru and Toko would be allies that help you fight along the way through Towa City. You can also pick up Komaru to aim shots yourself and use her different bullets if necessary. Yes including dance.
After saving Kenshiro, he would stay in the future foundation hub and you would be able to talk to him whenever he’s awake. c:
Again, I don’t quite know what to do with Nagito but I do have a few ideas that could work:
(For all of these assume Nagito and Monaca have been separated. He would never bring up his plan after UDG to the main trio.)-
Nagito has no fight. The main challenge is just exploring Towa with Toko/Komaru and trying to find him. He is in a random location every game. Then you are able to take him back to base no problem as he complies with the Neo world plan. But once back at base, he can influence some people about despair from the inside without anyone knowing and it becomes a problem later.
You don’t fight Nagito, you fight his luck cycle. When you find him, he does not agree with the plan so Sakura regrettably knocks him out like the rest of the remnants. While you are carrying him back, bad luck starts affecting you along the way; such as more monokumas than normal catching you off-guard, rain starts falling and you get struck by lightning or some big weight falls on you. It culminates with the helicopter that is supposed to bring you back to base breaking down and Sakura just going on foot instead……Which is miles away. Eventually you learn the patterns of the luck cycle and you can start dodging and “fighting” whatever comes at you.
Similar to fighting his luck cycle but instead his luck cycle keeps preventing you from reaching him. (ex: You are on a bridge, it collapses after a talk) Instead of reaching him on brute force, you have to convince him that being put into the neo world program is good and then his good luck will start working for you.
So like Idk??? What do you guys think??
Mahiru battle:
I say the battle is short because that’s just the confrontation in the auditorium. In reality, Mahiru would be fighting ever since Sakura left remnant state by sending her pictures. A little more about it is written here.
The art gallery/hallway section would be pretty long and many winding paths. Monokumas would be trying to decieve you by handing you false clues and play with your senses by making noises and causing illusions with different photos.
I should mention that I envision Sakura having a “focus” button that would slow things for a second to give you a chance to react to anything. There would also be a sound cue of alert if something outside of your field of vision, but Sakura can hear/notice, appears so you can also react to it.
Because Sakura is on edge in this level, that sound cue will also mislead you to disorient you further. During the final confrontation, the Monokumas could flash cameras at you to stun you out of focus. Yes, it would be annoying but it’s practically the only line of defense Mahiru has at this point.
Mukuro battle:
The point of this fight is to be a fun extra battle and riding the line of non-canon as y’know, her head was blown off. Consider her more a robot made by Kazuichi than human at this point.
At Katsucon this past February – when we first wore our Toko Fukawa and Byakuya Togami costumes – Roger was getting some costume photos for us down by the arcade in the Gaylord National. There was a booth there where you could get photos done with different borders/backgrounds/etc. and on the monitor outside the booth it would show you examples of what it could do and then take example photos of the space outside of the booth.
…………….so we had some fun with it. Major A+ to Roger (LOOK AT HIS MODEL POSE IN THE SECOND PHOTO) for snapping photos of the monitor in time, every time, since the monitor only put the example photos up for .2 seconds. :P
These are pretty fitting. Especially that first one.
