Danganronpa 2 is one of those rare games where I can't stop feeling emotions and love for the main cast even after rolling credits. The writing and building for the characters in this game are out of this world. I felt such disgust for some of them at the beginning of the game, which I guess helps with the twist at the final hours regarding who they really are. Despite this disgust, I overcame my first impressions and warmed up to everyone by the end and felt genuine mourning for those who were dead by the end. A couple of the trials genuinely broke me in half, and one in particular had me sobbing my eyes out. Danganronpa 2 has some of my favorite characters in fiction at this point, and I will always treasure the long journey I spent with these people.

It has been a fantastic and unforgettable experience. Danganronpa 2 has one of the best soundtracks, narratives, and visual styles I've witnessed in a game. And god DAMN that final trial was truly one of the most intense finales ever. I had plenty of pog moments and jaw dropping moments. The lore dumping was real and I had all of my questions answered with this game. Danganronpa 2 is a true sequel that outshines its predecessor Trigger Happy Havoc. This game sealed Spike Chunsoft as my favorite game developer. Sorry for the non-professional review, too much happened for me to make a formal multi paragraph essay.
