comment
Game Reset is a fanfic by tendertomb from Danganronpa following the events of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc Instead taking a rather different approach with the events of Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair Makoto Naegi of the Future Foundation Branch Number 14 and Ultimate Hope decides that rather than stand by and watch as the killings occur decides to directly intervene in the Killing School Trip and enters the simulation despite knowing of the dangers ahead and a trap beset to try and force the shutdown internally. Things go awry quite quickly with Junko AI deadset on trying to crush him and refusing to make it easy for him. Will he succeed or fall to the Ultimate Despair?It can be read here on ao3

You Can't Thwart Stage One
 Game Reset (Fanfic) / int_15385326
comment
You Can't Thwart Stage One: After the First Trial, Makoto tries to go the ruins on the second island, the Ruins contain a secret exit for the participants and knows the code to escape since he made it. Unfortunately for Makoto and the others, Junko planned for that and put a Lioness Monobeast there to guard it, preventing him from shutting down the system outright making the Ruins a previously accessible area in the original game blocked off.

Faking Amnesia: Makoto does this to attempt to alleviate suspicion from him, for good reason too, joining the moment the Killing Game began and is immediately suspicious from the group. Makoto additionally apart from Chiaki is the only one who knows the Awful Truth about Class 77 and the extent of Junko’s powers in this world but can’t communicate to the certain rules imposed on him.

comment
Experienced Protagonist: This is not Makoto's first rodeo in a Killing Game. He knows what to expect in a game of betrayal and death and knows more than the rest of the cast about Junko’s goals and Class 77 missing memories since he was directly responsible for their removal. Of course Junko has placed certain restrictions on him to stop him from outright shutting down the game. But where Makoto really shines is the Class Trials where compared to others flailing about unsure and hesitant to cast blame, Makoto who knows what’s at stake and how to handle himself is able to ascertain truths easier than others, allowing him to solve a case that otherwise would’ve ended in all of Class 77 deaths to just the Killer. Arguably Makoto ironically fits the role of Kyoko during the first game as a mysterious, experienced sleuth who is hiding something.

Closest Thing We Got: Makoto is not a therapist. But after the untimely death of Nekomaru and the reveal that he is Ultimate Hope he is essentially placed in a position that is basically unpaid therapist to a bunch of emotionally unstable teens a year older than him.

Black Comedy
 Game Reset (Fanfic) / int_222dc873
comment
Black Comedy: Tons. Most of it comes from Junko and Monokuma of course and is often laced with dramatic irony over the Ultimate Despairs not remembering various details. Junko recalls a time when Nekomaru during his time as Ultimate Despair destroyed a building and had the survivors, tearfully sing Happy Birthday for her. Junko's main complaint was their poor harmonisation skills. Kazuichi’s execution is laced with it being dragged by his neck at the back of a car, with cans and a sign that says “Just Buried� with Monokuma congratulating the “newly-dead� just after the execution as if it was a mock wedding instead of a horrific execution. Considering Kazuchi also has motion sickness it's just another level of twistedness and yet hilarity only Junko could come up with. After Teruteru's death. Monokuma prepares the countdown to the next trial by roasting himself in the oven.

Chekhov's Gun
 Game Reset (Fanfic) / int_22cf536c
comment
Chekhov's Gun: Kazuichi wrench as noted in both the game and this fic as something Kazuichi usually carries on him and in Game Reset he takes it out when he’s nervous as a habit. Even some of the original game’s dialogue mentions Kazuichi possibly using it as a weapon to hit someone on the head. It turns out it’s the murder weapon in the first case. Fuyuhiko's switchblade makes a reappearance when he tries to kill Makoto after being shown in a prior chapter and after Makoto stole all the kitchen knives.

Cardboard Prison: The only thing keeping Nagito in the bathroom is a chair leg. While he is quite co-operative with his imprisonment due to his admiration of Makoto, it becomes clear quite dramatically due to his luck. There is very little actually keeping him in there.

Just after the first trial Monokuma mentions that without Makoto they would all be smeared on the pavement and mentions something very interesting and something that would make it very hard for Makoto to explain himself. It’s one of the first times we see the extent of how far Monokuma or well Junko is willing to go to reveal parts about Makoto. Especially considering someone like Nagito is in the room.

comment
Morton's Fork: Monokuma’s first motive with the Class President. The participants have to vote which one to be Class President and whoever is voted has to deal with Monokuma assassins who will actively hunt and hurt the President unless a murder is committed. Makoto is the first one and has his arm slashed but that is nothing compared to Akane who lost some of her toes and needs a wheelchair to manoeuvre and Nagito who gets stabbed. Though that’s a ploy by Nagito to cover for the first Blackened.

Death by Adaptation: Nekomaru dies after getting whacked on the head. Kazuichi is the first culprit and is dragged away by his neck by a speeding car to his death. Teruteru dies in an explosion and is then stuffed into a freezer. Mahiru dies in a horroresque execution, gradually having her wrists cut with each photo showing her fate, until she sees one with her neck snapped and suffers from this fate.

During the second trial after we learn of the Imposter's involvement he reveals that while did cause the explosion. He wasn't the one to drag Teruteru to the freezer, rather he manipulated someone else into committing the crime to save himself. Putting a previous suspect back to the centre.

Locked in the Bathroom: With both Kazuichi and Nekomaru dead, the two people who originally knocked and tied Nagito out in the original. It should appear Nagito is free range to do as he pleases so to speak. That is until Makoto lures him into his bathroom and locks him from the outside. Something Nagito didn’t expect from.

Forced to Watch: Class 78. It is inferred at the very least, Aoi, Byakuya, Yasuhiro and Kyoko (Toko is possibly still in Towa City) are forced to watch Makoto their fellow survivor, go through yet another killing game. Additionally, since Makoto is unconscious, they can’t just leave him be but they are also helpless against the virus infecting the system.

Dissonant Serenity: Nagito has an eerie one in the middle of the first class trial while the rest of the class are screaming over the time and alibis where people were accounted for the murders and over the prospects of their execution should they fail. Nagito on the other hand is calm and had been stabbed recently. This attitude helps Makoto deduct that something is very wrong and that he fell for a lie.

He Knows Too Much: Fuyuhiko attempts this against Makoto in Chapter 2 after discovering he found out about his blackmail and knows its truth. In fact this blackmail is probably the least incriminating thing Makoto knows about him or anyone else on the island for that matter. Fortunately for Makoto, this trope is subverted since Nagito came to his aid and stopped it.

All Love Is Unrequited: The worst love triangle in existence comes in the form of Mikan Tsumiki, Nagito Komaeda and Makoto Naegi. Mikan is desperate for any form of affection and who uses nursing as a means of garnering some power and has her eyes set on Nagito (recently stabbed). Nagito Komaeda is obsessed with hope and its concept is steadily obsessed with Makoto Naegi after he was revealed as the Ultimate Hope and before Nagito was suspecting there was more to him. And Makoto Naegi is stuck in all that knowing of the Dramatic Irony this dynamic has.

Amnesiac Dissonance: Despite the Blackmail Video being incredibly convoluted and having Fuyuhiko in his time as Ultimate Despair and with Junko’s eye and ordering the death of his uncle. Fuyuhiko while he doesn’t remember has no doubt it’s real and its implied he is horrified by what he has done and has no intention of surviving his trial after forcing himself to kill Makoto. He's not the only one who feels a similar emotion after watching their respective video. Sonia after consulting Gundham who got hers, feels similar and despite not wanting to believe it. She knows it's true.

She showed Class 77 time in cages as they were taken to Jabberwock Island with Makoto on the other side, in a suit reassuring them that it would be okay and they would enjoy themselves there. What is missing is the fact that the Remnants themselves were dangerous individuals attacking Makoto and the others and needed to be restrained for their own safety and others and the fact there was no intention for a Killing Game to start at all. Sonia is understandably confused and conflicted about this along with Gundham who also saw it.

Nerves of Steel: Downplayed. But Makoto has developed some since the events of the first game and dealing with Despair. Nagito points out Makoto is unusually used to dead bodies and driven instead to find the truth during the first case.

Despite the Blackmail Video being incredibly convoluted and having Fuyuhiko in his time as Ultimate Despair and with Junko’s eye and ordering the death of his uncle. Fuyuhiko while he doesn’t remember has no doubt it’s real and its implied he is horrified by what he has done and has no intention of surviving his trial after forcing himself to kill Makoto.

Odd Friendship: Mikan and Nagito start forging a weird trauma bond after the first Trial after he got stabbed and she started treating him. It’s odd considering it's dripping in Dramatic Irony with their past as Ultimate Despair and Nagito's attitude to Mikan in canon as incredibly vitriolic as she is the most receptive of the Ultimate Despair to Junko and adores her completely while Nagito in contrast hates Junko even as an Ultimate Despair.

Demoted to Extra: Hajime Hinata. The protagonist of the Second Game is Out of Focus considering the story follows Makoto Naegi but he still makes incredibly useful observations and contributions in the Class Trials, even synergising with Makoto at points. A funny example of this demotion is during one of Hajime Free Time Events with Chikai he enjoys playing games with her. Meanwhile Makoto, Fuyuhiko, Nagito and Peko are having a dramatic life-and-death confrontation in Makoto's cabin.

Desperately Craves Affection: Mikan’s trauma bond with Nagito is comprised entirely of this. Despite Nagito at this point being well known for his instability, his apparent kindness and vulnerable status after his stabbing has her desperate for any semblance of affection. It’s no wonder why she was manipulated by Junko. It gets to the point she is manipulated into setting up the restaurant diner explosion that caused the second murder.

Dies Differently in Adaptation: A few people die slightly differently. Nekomaru the fourth victim originally dies as the first victim after being hit on the head with a wrench. Teruteru still dies by burning related, this time dying in an explosion but being discovered in a freezer. Mahiru dies after her limbs are broken with a final neck snap during her creepy execution.

Cutting the Knot: Attempted but Averted. Upon arriving on the Second Island Makoto realises he can now access the Ruins and since he knows the code to the island, he can use to enter and get the surviving Class 77 out of there. Unfortunately, there is now a Lioness Monobeast blocking the path.

The Chains of Commanding

comment
The Chains of Commanding: Makoto feels it quite a bit as the Ultimate Hope and the fic explores Makoto the effects of this on Makoto. It was invoked by Monokuma after the first trial to have him try and support Class 77 but also wear him down. Already this is starting to take a drain on Makoto. He isn’t the only one to feel this trope as Makoto recognises that Sonia Nevermind Princess of Novoselic also bares a similar responsibility and burden to remain positive and a leader in trying times.

comment
In Spite of a Nail: A few things. Nagito still instigates the first murder but not as the killer but attempted victim by Nekomaru. Similarly to Teruteru attempting to target him in canon it does not end well for either attempted killer of his and they end up dead. Additionally, Nagito's insanity is revealed at the first class trial. Despite the two individuals who locked him originally ending up dead. Nagito still ends up some time imprisoned. This time he is locked in Makoto's bathroom. The second motive is still something blackmail related. Teruteru still dies by something explosion related and doesn't make it past Chapter 2.

Hope Bringer: Makoto's main characteristic is and has been revealed to be the Ultimate Hope by Monokuma after the first trial. His subsequent role in the chapters has him attempt to help and manage other people’s problems and emotions. This is also deconstructed and examined with the effects on Makoto in this.

Hoist by His Own Petard: Downplayed. In the second trial, the first piece of evidence proving that Mahiru alone is the culprit is Hiyoko's blackmail in the freezer. Hiyoko tries to argue that she received her own blackmail, however earlier in the trial she revealed she had Peko's when she passed it around for everyone else to read.

The Chessmaster: It's revealed in the second trial.

He was also to one to drop Hajime's blackmail and threatened him to do the setup leading to Hajime being completely out of it during the trial.

Didn't See That Coming: No one at that point could’ve predicted Nagito stabbing himself with a knife to cover up the time of death of the first victim. Makoto even initially used the stabbing as a point of reference for when Nekomaru died with the omission of time in the Monokuma File and only pointed out that possibility when they exhausted all possible avenues and noted Nagito’s unusual serenity during the proceedings.
