Pros:
- Memorable and mostly likable characters
- Interesting mysteries
- Amazingly stylized art and soundtrack
- Fun gameplay
- Well-done blend of genuine horror and black comedy

Cons:
- More than a few of these characters suck ass
- Some elements really aged poorly
- Some mysteries are somewhat predictable
- Way hornier than I'd like it to be
- Villain motivation sucks ass

Overall a mixed bag. I LOVE some of the characters while others fall completely flat. Some emotional beats hit very hard, others have me rolling my eyes. Some of the mysteries are genius and others are incredibly predictable or just kind of stupid. I love how it comes out of the terrible situation with an optimistic outlook and the game's overall themes of hope and looking forward, but in order to bolster that, the villain's motivation is just awful.

I would still recommend it, however, because when Danganronpa is good, it's really good. Even if that also means the bad parts are equally bad.
