I am a little brony from a little country of Czech Republic. I enjoy translating, reading, and on occasion writing. AND I FREAKIN' LOVE HOT RASPBERRIES WITH VANILLA ICE CREAM!

My vote is for Blue Ray. Oh, and also, this is a very interesting and diverse cast of characters you have here. I can't wait to see what'll happen in the next few chapters. :twilightsmile:

7551467 Thanks for the comment! I'll try not to disappoint :twilightsmile:

It's unlikely that two other people will agree on someone else than Blue Ray, so the next Free Time will most likely be about him based on this one vote :pinkiehappy:

Oh, how I enjoy psychological drama~ Definitely watching this one.

Referencing the abridged series in the author's notes eh?

7559242 Yes :scootangel: It just felt right to put it in there.

7552588 I would be intrested to hear a bit about tot he tai (I think I spelled that correctly?).

7582991 Alright, I'm writing it down :pinkiesmile:

I feel I'm a little late to the party with this anime, having just recently finished it :twilightsheepish: but that first chapter was nicely done! Good job!

Despair will soon fill those who witness the act of violence. I fear the young one will die first. Since he is weak and innocent. He's the perfect victim. But in the same breath I fear for the strongest one's lives as well.

My money is on roar. He protested way too much to be in the dark, he must have found his box early and only made the connection to what it was after monokami's announcement hence why ray couldn't find the murderer before!

I don't even know how it happened, but in all the commotion (starting Uni, studying, dropping out, moving, finding a job) I completely forgot about this fanfic. I was only reminded because you two dropped some comments here :twilightblush:
I gave DR:PN a re-read to see if I should start writing it again or not. While a bit sloppy, it has a lot of potential and I think it would be shame if I dropped it completely. So... Next update soon, maybe? :scootangel: I just have to salvage the storyline from the bits of my memory and year-old notes.

Who made the picture and what are "hot raspberries"?

8444678
Caesar's map? Well, that was made by me in Paint. Simple stuff :pinkiesmile:

And as for hot raspberries:

The raspberries are hot, strong and sourish, the ice-cream is cold, mild and sweet. This dessert contrasts every step of the way and I love it.

Yay! It's nice to see I'm not the only one who is taking on the task of writing a Danganronoa crossover. It's great to find one alive after all this time, and I hope we both complete our stories. This is definitely going on my tracker.

Alright, theory time for how I think this could possibly go.

I think Twilight is going to try to convince everyone, even Monokami that she somehow did the murder in an attempt to sacrifice herself for everyone else. She could possibly start laughing manically, and talk about how she's actually the blackened and her plan worked so well she even fooled Monokami. She's the Ultimate Spellcaster, so it's possible that she could make up some bullshit about a mind control spell that she used on RD to make her commit the murder. In her fake plan, she saw it as foolproof, because in her eyes she wins either way, so long as they chose RD as the blackened. She'd then explain that she would have ousted herself as the true mastermind behind the murder, and if Monokami saw that as a valid method of murder than she gets out, but if he rules that RD committed the murder than RD would simply be executed. Unfortunately, she'd grown arrogant and let go of the spell right as the trial was ending, thinking she had it in the bag. She didn't anticipate RD suddenly flipping the script on her, concocting some bullshit story at the last minute. She panicked, and had already broken the spell by that point and just layed down the waterworks, hoping to win via sympathy. Unfortunately this failed and RD will now go home free. She'd reason to them that she was only revealing this now due to her being dead either way, but she sure as hell doesn't want the one who ruined her plan to go free. I think its complex and mind boggling enough a story that it'd fit Danganronpa's tone.

I know its highly unlikely that this is true, but the fic is probably dead at this point due to lack of author, and I like my explaination better than none at all and the current end we got.

So...10 O.C.s, 6 canon characters. Nothing particularly wrong with O.C.s anyways, since it diversifies the cast. That, and you might get angry comments if you kill off canon favorites :ajbemused:

So let me take a guess...assuming neither of them get killed off early, Twilight and Blue Ray will probably decipher a lot of the mysteries behind this school. Blue Ray's talent is finding stuff, so it would only be metaphorically fitting for him to find secrets. Thunder Roar may also be important, give he's the cover art character...unless of course even that is a red herring! Playing the games, I can't help but suspect every hint is a red herring!

There shouldn't be too much of a (DANGANRONPA 1 SPOILERS > ) memory loss plot twist with several years erased, because Tot He Toi is young enough (and presumably Fleur knew him from outside of the school) that he would have grown up noticeably in size and potentially gained his Cutie Mark in any time period that had been wiped.

Well, at least you switched it up instead of having classic Monokuma has the front-end antagonist. A timberwolf, that's interesting. The obvious suspect at this point is Nightmare Moon, given the focus on Nightmare instead of Despair. The obvious one, in any case!

So, Princess Luna definitely hasn't returned yet. Well, not surprising considering Twilight hasn't graduated yet. As another random theory, it could be

Nightmare Moon has them trapped inside a dream, which would remove a lot of the need for physical power. The four stars aligning to let Nightmare Moon was a thing in the series premiere, so maybe she is using the alignment of the four stars to put ponies into a nightmare instead. In which case this could take place many years later, as in a dream you can alter Tot Te Hoi's size to when he was a 12-year-old, for instance

As for the potential first victim...I assume it'll be somepony who has a reasonably useful talent in solving the mystery of the school. So likely one of Blue Ray, who can seek stuff, A.K. Yearling, who probably has insight into tropes and cliches to apply to real life, and Caesar, who as a mathematician would also be a good logician. Secondary would be one of the two inventors.

My deductions so far:

The magic seal may be a red herring and a unicorn committed the murder regardless, using the magic seal to throw somepony else off.

Blue Ray was supposedly out on watch all night, but only was killed at 657 am, 3 minutes prior to the morning wake-up call. Most likely the murderer noticed him out and about and plotted a premeditated murder. The second possibility is Blue Ray's clairvoyant sense went off when he spotted the would-be murderer and the two got in a scuffle. Somepony's blood spatter, likely Blue Ray's, got over the stairs. The killer would have had to mop up the stairs, put it in the closet, find a magic seal out of the classroom, and seal the closet. I think that happened well before 657 am, but Blue Ray wasn't dead yet. Instead, he was severely injured as the result of his fight with the murderer. Likely he was flying and got hit from below, causing the dislocation of his wing.

The killer then dragged Blue Ray up the stairs, leaving behind a streak of blood, which had to be cleaned up. A unicorn could levitate him and a pegasus could have just carried him up, but either species might have dragged him up the stairs regardless to pin it on an Earth pony. The killer then dropped him from the top of the stairs, resulting in his broken neck and death as he couldn't fly with a dislocated wing. However, the killer may also have had some sort of method to delay the drop, such as a unicorn holding him in mid-air levitating and then cancelling the levitating some time later. The drop would have created enough noise that Bewilderer could hear it and misinterpreted it as a door being slammed shut. The one problem with that theory is that the Central Tower, where Blue Ray's body was found, is on the opposite side of the wing to the central tower, so other ponies should have heard it. It may be the noise was something else.

Of course, since people other than the protagonist will always break out new evidence during a trial, I'll have to revise this theory most likely. I assume Thunder Roar will take the lead in the trial given his cover art status.

No, it is not over.

Oh, but I think it is! At least, since I've gotten to the end here.

I wonder what Rainbow Dash found in her box. Fluttershy's feathers?

Author hasn't logged on since December of last year. So doubtful.

So refreshing. I read a mlp and Danganronpa fic before this one where Twilight dies.

I'm gonna read it after this one of course.

""The Ultimate Inventor duo!"" They said that last sentence in unison, both striking epic poses like two weird superheroes. Then they trod away, leaving the stage for somepony else.

*Flashback to power rangers*

Hehe

I haven't introduced myself yet! My heart jumped when I realized that I would eventually have to go to that dreaded vending machine and say something to the group of Ultimate students. One of them was a critic, and more then enough were competitive and confident in themselves. Oh my gosh, I was about to blow it, everypony was going to laugh at my ineptitude… Even that little colt from overseas managed to do it, and I just knew that I was going to freeze and stutter like hell! Oh no, oh no…

Twilight, you and I are similar.

"I… Okay." I can do it. Fleur wasn't going to let anypony mock me. I was safe.

Sure...

And I ran. Dammit, why did I wish her good luck? Didn't I just say that she was already healthy? Why do I have to be so damn awkward all the time?

Because you could.

Yeah you did.

Your a teenager, that's why.

"I know that. But we won't kill each other over anything, will we?"

Hmmm smh.
I can't say...

"We can either look inside, or throw them away at the garbage disposal. I say we let each pony act however they see fit. Whatever you do, I know you will all do the right thing!"

I'm not so sure...

"You… You stupid, awful… FUCKING wolf!" I cried out. I buried my head into the pillow, soaking it with my tears. Spike… my dear, poor Spike, what did he do to you? What happened to you?

Your crying a lot there Twi.

No, I won't give in. I won't ever submit to the likes of you, wolf. You hurt Spike, that's a declaration of war. I will never do what you want me to do, I'll resist to the very end. I won't let myself become the killer, or the victim. I won't succumb to the nightmare, no matter what you do to me. You will never succeed! I will beat you, I will get out, I will save Spike, and then you'd better run, because I will never forgive you. The only living being I'm going to kill is YOU.

Such determination...

I clenched my teeth and punched the pillow again. I won't allow it! For the sake of Spike, for the sake of everypony here, I will come out on top! I will not cry, I will not kill, I will not die. Not until this fight is done.

You've been crying legit for over 3 chapters, you expect me to believe you Twi :applejackunsure:

Oh, of course! I passed this first trial of my will. I decided to fight and never give up, when just a minute ago I was afraid I would do the opposite.

Good good. I'm so proud Twilight. I'm so proud

Just to be sure, I cast an invisible anti-magic armor on me, and I started reviewing all the self-defense spells I knew. I really wanted to believe that nopony would murder their classmates, but…

Good mindset there Twi.

He was leading me somewhere where we would be alone. He was acting strange. A sudden feeling of dread shot through my spine, and I slowed down, lagging slightly behind him. Was he really… Trying to…?

Nah...He wouldn't

I rushed to him and gave him a hug. I still didn't know if I could believe his words, but that didn't matter. What mattered was that my friend was obviously distressed and needed my help. Blue Ray found out that something horrible was about to happen, but he didn't have any evidence and most ponies wouldn't take his warning seriously. I couldn't even imagine how I would react if I got put into this kind of situation.

Friendship is magic. Rainbows and- and sunshine. Blah.

And now I was the one subjected to a hug. Was I crying? I was crying. I didn't even notice. Blue Ray did, however, and he was squeezing the life out of me.

YOU SAID YOU WOULD STOP CRYING!!! But now your crying, I've lost hope I swear ima see more in the coming chapters.:facehoof:

Blue Ray!

It was destiny, it was planned, What the fuuuuuucccckkkk is this shit.

I expected it though...

And then I broke. I burst into tears, unable to form a single thought in my head. I just cried for Blue Ray, hiccuping against my will and shaking like a leaf in the wind. You… You didn’t deserve this, Blue Ray! Why you? Why…

I can let this pass...

"He's dead, Thunder! He's dead! It's my fault!" I sobbed.

I just...wow.

"Umm… yes?" I answered, trying to stay out of her reach. Twitch was smaller than me, but had muscles and scars all over her body, and that, combined with her title of the Ultimate Fighter, made her one of the most intimidating ponies I knew.

Funny...

I arrived to others with tears in my eyes. I wondered: Could somepony cry infinitely, without a break?

Atleast you can see it...

I suddenly felt horrible for insulting her. Why did I have to do that? Yes, she was belittling me ever since we met, but I was supposed to be a better pony and ignore her, not to sink to her level! I sat down, feeling ashamed and exasperated from all this. I've had enough. I just wanted to lie down on my bed and sleep it off.

And yet you plopped into that pit...

"That's her full name, you didn't know? It's right on her door, and Caesar wrote it in his map, too! Just don't say it when she's around."

That's her name...That's...That's HER NAME!!!:rainbowlaugh:

"This murder took place during a ridiculously tiny window of four minutes. Killing, cleaning up, sealing the mop and bucket, getting back to the dorms and quite likely also cleaning the blood off one's own body, all of that was done before the Monokami's announcement. In other words, this was all about speed. And there is one pony whose forte is exactly that. Rainbow Dash. The Ultimate Speedster. "

You didn't...

I saw it coming, but than again...
