There's something that bugged me when I saw it and now as I look back over the scene it bugs me 10x more. Gotta comment on it as it could be minor but it could also be very, very big.

Just for the heck of it: there's a café in Japan that's serving Dangan Ronpa food and drinks for a limited time. Orders come with coasters and stuff!
Originally found this on an English site, but that thing's comment section was littered with spoilers. u.u But basically those foods are stuff like squid ink curry, strawberry milk, blueberry pie with yoghurt ice cream (Kirigiri Cake Plate <3) and so on. Monobear's drink is sesame seeds and milk - no idea if that'd taste very good.

Mondo Hair: I'm pretty sure the "biker gang" culture is what Mondo's hair is supposed to remind us of to begin with. (Note: for all I've learned, the Japanese biker gangs are super noisy teenagers trying hard to be badass - not exactly hardboiled criminals, but I may possibly be wrong here. Hence all the quote marks.)
Think I've also seen hair-gel made specifically to support those...lord, does that hairstyle have a name?

Aside: I learned that the ending is sung by Soraru, another nico nico singer I've heard of previously like Choucho. Funny how I'm becoming familiar with all these names now, and neat how they're breaking out into mainstream and producing original work. (I'm a nano fan now too after hearing her rendition of Just Be Friends; she sang the OP for BTOOOM! btw.) Apparently he even got famous through his Kagerou Days cover. (Though it's not that good IMO... Guy really does need autotune. ^^; )

While I'd love to take credit for being a genius, the truth is that it's a fairly obvious clue planted by the game developers (and subsequently the animation staff) for anyone who understands Japanese norms in spelling to pick out.

"Luckster" would mean "a person who is very lucky." It's the -ster suffix that does it. Like ...
But you're right: Naegi's original title was 超高校級の「幸運」, or "Super High School Good Luck". So it is possible for some of the students to be nicknamed after abstract ideas, I guess. It sure is strange though that Naegi wasn't named 幸運児 (which is the word which means "a person who is very lucky" using the same two characters for good luck, 幸運, that Naegi's title uses) considering that they do indeed have a word for this. Why the abstract title? Strange. (Episode 10) Spoiler: show

Without giving too much away about SDR2 (very, very light spoilers for the second game, if you even call them spoilers)... Spoiler: show

I feel like we may have gotten past one hurdle, but the next one I have no idea about. I at least seem to have reached a brick wall. The SRD2 people are probably reading this thread and thinking that it's obvious. Or not.

When I watched pretty much any incarnation of DR, I don't think I ever thought anything to be obvious. Even in one case where I thought I had it all figured out, I ended up being totally wrong in the end.
DR is very good about now showing its cards too early, though it might slip you a hint here and there. |

I'm just going to say that I'm with Jeri on this one. I don't think DR is really "obvious" (at least in this context). No one is sitting here judging your speculations (well, not in a mocking or bad way). We're just as much along for the ride as you are, or at least we were at one point.
