History Roleplay / CabaretDesespoir

* CastFullOfGay: You can count the number of people in the Cabaret who show romantic interest only towards the opposite gender on one hand. Though with some, it's more of a LoveYouAndEverybody scenario instead.

* ArmorPiercingSlap: Yuuma does this to Noriko at the end of Chapter 2's trial for [[spoiler: messing up the crime scene by defiling Emi's corpse long after she died]]. Played for laughs, as doing so causes Yuuma to [[AmusingInjuries dislocate his wrist]] after slapping her across the room. That is one ''mean'' bitchslap.

* NiceShoes: Emi always wears high heels in an effort to make herself appear taller. Her usual high heels are 4 inches.

''[[https://cabaretdesespoir.tumblr.com Cabaret Desespoir]]'' is a Website/{{Tumblr}} Roleplay Group based on the ''Franchise/{{Danganronpa}}'' series of visual novels. It takes place inside a high-class revamped theatre, where twenty-one upcoming Super High School Level students have been chosen as the new cast, with each of them having a certain musical song/show/character associated with them. The show will get bigger and bigger, and the characters grow grander and grander! Even if a few murders happen along the way, you know the saying: '''"The show must go on!"'''

The [=LeRoux=] Theatre's official callback list was released on July 11th, 2016 (found [[https://cabaretdesespoir.tumblr.com/post/147264742595/a-note-is-posted-on-the-door-of-the-leroux here]]).

!! Cabaret Desespoir includes these Tropes:
%% * AHouseDivided

* BigBad: [=MonoPheasant=]]. He makes it a point of contention that the next idiot to call him [[spoiler:[[=MonoCock=]]]] will be executed, no questions asked.

* BigBrotherIsWatching: Those cameras have to be good for something. Parodied in the prologue when Yuuma dresses up as Sailor Moon for the fun of it, and is rewarded with a coin from the host, who hadn't even been introduced yet at that point!

* ClearMyName: Happens whenever somebody is accused of the crime and fights the charges, or when their friends do their best to help them. Of course, the question of whether or not they're actually guilty is very real...

* SlaveToPR: Emi built a reputation for herself that she has to uphold, even though that reputation is one of an alpha bitch.

%% * YouCantGoHomeAgain

** DeathByIrony: It is likely that each character's execution will ''also'' involve their themed musical song in some way.
