    I don't think there's even a mastermind. Unlike the other DR games, we actually see our kidnappers in the first chapter. In SDR2, we only see Monokuma. In DR1, also only Monokuma until the last chapter until we get a reveal, same with SDR2. For V3, it was a student among them, but this can't be the same case for Eden Garden as the two masterminds for the game were introduced to us. Unless there's a traitor, no mastermind is hidden among the students.

    That is an idea I've definitely thought about, however I believe there was a description that said there was a mastermind (not exactly sure if it was credible source, pls take this with a grain of salt). It is still a possibility that the masterminds are just Tozu and Mara, (or maybe they are also ultimates?!?!)

    Wolfgang is an interesting character to me, especially with the contrast of the mc. It’s like a reversal where he has the typical protagonist energy while Damon has the more typical antagonist energy. I knowwww we shouldn’t lean into danganronpa tropes or whatever, but it does make me curious about the fate of Damon as a character. Going along with the reverse protagonist concept, his little hair in his face reminds me of an upside down danganronpa ahoge sorta. Very interested to see how things turn out

    It's interesting that Damon specifically mentions Wolfgang being so young being surprising when he meets him. It's a long theory, so I won't get into it too much, but I have a theory that Wolfgang was Cara's original murderer, and that it happened in a pervious killing game. Maybe Damon's surprise at his age is a very subtle clue that Wolfgang's older than he appears/says?

    just going to say it, Fan game or not the snake tie in a place called Eden's Garden is too much of a Red herring to be anything but a Red Herring, the only way Damon as a character can work with a snake as an animal symbol is to trick people into thinking it is him then having them dismiss it because it would be to easy a troupe to fall into only to then overthink it as the game trying to call you out for calling their bluff, then pull out the rug that is was just a bluff and you fell for it. my money is on Grace Madison, because if there is one thing i know about white Rabbits, they always lead you into wonderland

    Have thought it could be Wolfgang or Diana, but two other I thought have the possibility of mastermind are Cassidy and Eloise. Cassidy 🕷️- spider in snaring pray in her trap. Also the kill game happening through the help of her loyal fans, and could be live streaming the whole thing. She could even secretly be a cult leader. Eloise 🦢- swan may be known for beauty and grace, but there also very aggressive and dangerous. Her shy timid personality could be a front, she’s probably really mollusk and threatening. Along with a skill that can make an efficient killer. Also she has the same color skim as Tozu with the white and red. Most characters with Red eyes have had malicious intent. ✂️ 🃏

    Personally, I don’t think Damien is the Mastermind. However, I do think his character is the perfect set up for there to be a blackened… who WINS. He has both the skills and the motivation to win as a blackened. The only person he might have trouble with accepting the death of is Eva, and it would be great having her being the only one who is able to see through his lies, and him being conflicted in their arguments. I really hope he is the chapter 5 killer, and we play the trail as him getting away with it. Ch 6 will be just Damien as the only survivor, facing off against the mastermind.

    That honestly makes so much sense considering the fact that he represents the "snake" in the bible story. The snake is actually the creature whom Satan disguised himself as and manipulated Eve to eat the forbidden fruit. Maybe this says that Damon will also use his manipulation and gaslighting skills to fool everyone into believing he's innocent.

    Given the current rejection of Danganronpa tropes, I don’t think this game is going to even have a “mastermind.” I reckon characters know more than they are letting on or even that there are some that are more important somehow but, and maybe this will sound tautological, but the Mastermind is just whoever Tozu is, whether he’s the devil and this is just actual Hell, good place style, or if he’s another party, maybe Cara’s dad or some vengeful character trying to right some wrongs by torturing these talented youngsters Also, unless something happens chapter 1 to cement someone else as the first kill, it makes the most sense for Grace to be the first dead but I can’t tell how obvious this is. She got death flagged when she got almost shot by Mara which is either a bait and switch or foreshadowing and it’s hard to decide on one. She’s also the only character currently important yet also expendable, as in, she’s part of the main cast but doesn’t have a lot of room to grow or expand as a character. It’s true that some characters get developed post mortem, tho I.e. Rantaro, Ultimate Impostor etc. Idk if it seems to everyone that she would be the first one to die therefore the logical decision would be to avoid that or whether it’s a better idea to do something else.

    While I'm personally probably more on the Diana train, there is another piece of suspicious Ulysses evidence that you didn't mention in the video. When you interact with one of the paintings in the hallway, one of a woman with an owl's face, Damon says, "Sheesh. Owls always gave me the creeps." Upon learning that Ulysses' symbol was the owl, I thought that was a really weird line to throw in there. (Sorry if somebody else commented this already!)

    Personally, I think we are far too early in the game to really see where Wolfgang will stand in the story. However, I have a strong feeling that he won’t die in the beginning or middle chapters. It just seems odd to me, given his total contribute so far. If he were to kill in the first chapter, sure that would place mistrust in everyone, but they still don’t even know each other. They haven’t gotten attached as Ultimates. At this point in time, they are merely students working together to survive. Nothing else. And can you really see Wolfgang getting eliminated in Chapter 3? I feel like for him, he’ll probably have to do with Chapter 5 if anything. It just seems to fit, given his talent and the personality we’ve seen so far. There, he’ll have the most emotional impact on the players and characters if he dies. I would also really like to see if he eventually becomes a hindrance too. It’s even stated in his profile thing that he values logic above all else in the courtroom, even if it ends up being counterproductive to the trial. Foreshadowing, perhaps? My thoughts on Ulysses are that he’ll be a victim, maybe. Seeing as he takes notes of a lot of his surroundings, I feel like that could be used as evidence during the trial. Maybe it’ll even give hints of who the mastermind might be in later chapters. My guess is that he’ll die in either Chapters 2 or 4, but I’m leaning more on Chapter 4 just for plot reasons.

    Those are some solid theories! Great video, my favorite mastermind suspect is definitely Damon, just because the concept of a protagonist who's the mastermind would be extremely difficult to execute well, but could be genius if handled by the right person. It would have to be written in such a way, that it's not super obvious, yet makes logical sense and doesn't come out of the left field, with little clues about him being the mastermind (that, at the time, seemed unimportant) sprinkled around in the game. Certainly difficult to write, but it would be incredible if written correctly. Also, while I find the Ulysses theory interesting, I'm hoping my best boy isn't evil 😭

    interesting theories! i generally think it's too early to say for certain as most dr masterminds only start getting concrete clues towards their identity with the law few chapters. i like how part of your proof for wolfgang was that he's a scorpio ;-; truly the most devious of signs. generally i think his position as rival/foil makes him unlikely to be the mastermind but likely to have secrets/further revealed moral dubiousness. my bet is that he's more jaded than he lets on as the legal world can be very corrupt, and perhaps with him even having given into corruption in the past like you theorized. my sort of theory/prediction is that after witnessing the murders and betrayal, he starts to lose faith in his belief of justice and decides to do more questionable things, or if he has done something sketchy in the past, perhaps his regret from that action informs his very intense desire for justice now, and he has a sort of giving into temptation moment, thinking maybe he was foolish to think that in the first place and going fully in the other direction, he seems like a very black and white guy which is also in his color scheme and i can very easily see him going in a more extremist direction

    I have an interesting thought: In the original Adam & Eve story, the snake is the devil- and he is evil, of course. But in the game's context, is the Garden of Eden good? The school is *called* "Eden's Garden" and in the original story, the devil gets the original humans locked out of it. In this context, if Damon is the "devil" is he not trying to get everyone out of Eden's Garden? Food for thought I suppose. It's also of note, of course, that the snake is symbolically wrapping around him with the green triangles on his suit. Of course, it can represent different things, but it's interesting nonetheless.

    I strongly believe Ulysses is the mastermind. I think he's using the killing game in order to prove some of his teories or analize their classmates reactions for the sake of hystory (?). He's writting down in his notebook posible outcomes or hypothesis to compare them as the game continues. Yet i believe hes going to be a victim in a middle or late case, but the killing game will continue being carried by Tozu and Mara; the dispair this would cause... they get rid of the mastermind, but that wont stop the killing game, it would be different from the other games where the main objective seemed to be to get rid of the mastermind to stop the killing game.

    Wild prediction: Wenona is the mastermind... I don't know If what I remember is exactly correct, but Wenona was trashing (I don't know how to put it) on Eden's garden academy. So putting the students in a killing game could be something that would ruin it's reputation. Eva also points out why would someone like Wenona need to attend Eden's garden academy. Eva seems to be an important character, and her questioning someone's attendance to the academy is really suspicious. (Wenona might not even be registered at the academy). She is also rich, she has money to spend to help organize the killing game .

    Howdy howdy, voice of Ulysses here! Sorry if this seems a bit late since the upload was so long ago and im only commenting now, but i really enjoy all the theories!! Im super super impressed with all the different ways people are interpreting what may happen later in the story with the crumbs we got during the prologue, its honestly mind boggling. Keep on theory crafting, i’d love to see more!

    Great theories for potential masterminds! I’m more of the camp of that there is no mastermind within the students(meaning Tozu and Mara are just the masterminds). Though I do believe that possibly some characters might be a traitor or worked with the masterminds(Eva, Wolfgang, or even Damon). To which they either don’t remember due to losing memories or keeping it a secret.

    Thank you so much! That is always a possibility and my theories are more of who is working with Tozu and Mara rather than a typical mastermind, but either way I've got my eyes on the characters in my video and few others who are suspicious

    Honestly i think its none of them. Since it IS called "project: eden's garden", the original garden of eden (from the bible) serves as a "project" made by God himself to test Adam and Eve. What if there's someone else in this game that serves as a "God" who is testing the participants and Tozu is actually a pawn not the mastermind. What makes me believe so much that theres more than just "Tozu" because he represents a lamb and the lamb actually symbolizes Christ. God sent Christ to accomplish a mission so maybe same goes with the "god" and Tozu?

    i think there's no mastermind, but there's traitor and this is Diana, she will die as culprit in chapter 4 (my predictions)

  • @cblazerc
    @cblazerc Жыл бұрын

    I just notice various things about how Diana acts that make me believe she's the mastermind, or at least the traitor if there is one. The first thing is that she leads conversations in directions Tozu wants them to, like when she asks everyone if they want to enter the dorm building after Tozu's announcement when they started stalling with small talk. Another thing is that she, for some reason, stays out of the investigation, and while she could be telling the truth, it could also mean that she wants to avoid accidentally saying something she shouldn't know. Lastly, in my opinion, her reaction to finding a "dead body" seems very off to me, and the calm attitude she keeps at the trial only increases that feeling that something is off with her to me. This is especially confusing to me seeing as she is the first to say that she has to get out once the killing game is announced. So, while this could be a red-herring, I personally think that Diana is the mastermind, fashion talent or not. I do really hope she isn't the mastermind because of how obvious it seems (as I Ulysses stan, I hope you're right), but I still feel like it could just be her all the same.

    I actually think Diana will be the first down. She's a super flat character and didn't give me any signs we'd see her present for long. Plus, her being out of the investigation could be a clue she won't be around for any when our cast is picked off.

    @@adamsiq4851 If anything, I think this is evidence to the contrary, as why would they waste a character they haven't built up. This is something that many people agree was a mistake from v3 when they killed Rantaro first, so it is unlikely that PEG will into that same trap. So, as someone who has written one fangan if you put the chapter counts together, I can say that most likely the first to drop will be someone like Cassidy who got a lot of screentime, but isn't essential for the narrative they are trying to construct.

    @@cblazerc agreed. Cassidy has major death flags. I have a gut feeling that everyone in the cast is either tied to a deadly sin or tied to a holy virtue ( Damon and Wolfgang I think would be excused, since Damon's symbol is the snake, representing Lucifer/the devil. And Wolfgang's symbol is a sheep, representing a lamb of god. [ i have a theory that a "lamb being led to a slaughter" might mean that Wolfgang's blind faith might not end so well ). I mean, some pretty telltale signs are Wenona = Greed. Cassidy = Charity. Ulysses = Sloth. I'm not sure what the others are gonna be tied to, either that or I havent been paying attention well, but its just a theory, so take it with a grain of salt.

    @@thecursed_1lordofcats738 Yeah.. I'm fairly certain he's either going to be an early victim, or a survivor (the latter option has a lot of potential, but is less likely).. Either way, he'll probably undergo some kind of positive development to help contribute to Damon's overall arc about those with more niche talents having something useful to contribute to the world. Him being a culprit would just justify Damon's entire argument at the beginning, and since Kai embodies the whole "leeching off of the public for their own ends" idea more than ANYONE else, it'd be a little too predictable for him (of all people) to kill so early.

    If Ulysses dies or murders, or is mastermind, his notebook is going to come into play. If he is not mastermind, I speculate that he'll figure out who they are and get killed for it, but he leaves his notebook behind, which helps the remaining students figure it out.

  • @the_magic_celery

    I have an idea! Because Damon and Wolfgang are narrative foils, and you yourself said that the former has great character growth potential... Maybe Damon will get an arc where he learns to stop being a jerk and appreciate the cast with non-academic talents. On the other hand, if Wolfgang really is as pure as he acts, maybe his passionate emotions will get the better of him, and he'll undergo a corruption arc. Maybe he'll get his own 'snap' moment, like ch3 killers in official DR do. As for the mastermind... literally everyone is suspicious. I do think Diana is too obvious and unoriginal as a mastermind, though. Same with Eva, I reckon she'll be the first victim. I think it's Cassidy who'll bump her off, or vice versa.

    I kinda see Diana as the support character. In Weeby Newz’s videos about her playing the chapter one demo she sticks up for Damon when Wolfgang says him and Eva should be left alone. I bet someone will kill Eva because if she’s so good at lying she can detect lies as well. And the assist character will be Diana. Edit: I managed to find Diana’s Voice Actor her on KZread and asked them if she would be a very important character and they didn’t know yet. But we both hoped she would be.
