because of the sheer lack of true content and even lack of effort in the art/gameplay area, as well as it being just gacha danganronpa mario party, i can't really give it more than a 7/10. however the interactions are for the most part very charming and a good number of them are extremely awesome, either in a comedy sense or a characterization one. i'm not finished yet as of writing this review but i'd say i've seen 90% of the character events.

i've been a danganronpa fan since 2014 and this is the first new piece of content the series has gotten since V3 came out nearly 5 years ago. to put that in perspective, in the 5 years before V3 came out, you had SDR2, UDG, the DR3 anime, the official anime adaptation of DR1, multiple stage plays, multiple light novels, etc etc. From January 2017 to this past November, we've basically had none. And for that, I'm highly thankful for this game. I'm so glad to see my favorite characters again. I'm not sure when's the next time we're going to get anything new from the series, but I know I'll be here and waiting.

Kodaka was right, Danganronpa V3- and by extension, Danganronpa in general, has no end. Because the story lives on inside us even if you've technically "finished" it. That's why I don't think this series will truly die, even if nothing else is made for it. I feel like it's spike in popularity internationally before DRS was even announced is good proof of this.

one thing im curious towards: is this game better than the bonus mode in v3? cause if it's an expansion of that i'll definitely get it. i spent a lot of time on that alone
