It's bordering on Just a Face and a Caption, except she's crying a little bit, though it's not really that sad. Plus, ew, chained sinkhole.

I'd suggest Mondo and his brother but that might be too much of a spoiler for the second trial. Given the game is difficult to talk about without spoiling trial outcomes and other plot points, could we even get a sufficiently emotional image without spoiling something?

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

I actually don't mind the current, she looks pretty sad to me.

I added the image, but not the caption, because I thought it was the saddest moment I could show without being a spoiler. I'd prefer to keep it.

Danganronpa's sad moments can be quite spoileriffic. However, we could find another sad moment which does not spoil the plot that much if you like.

OP link is broken to me. I’m fine with Keep Until Better Image Suggested, her face and body language suggest sadness.

I actually think the current pic's fine minus the chained sinkhole.

The pic is okay; I don't think the current caption adds anything.

clearly things are going well.

I can't take current seriously. The art style combined with the pose and outfit give off some fanservicey vibes.

Now that I'm on desktop again I can look at OP, here it is for posterity (damn you wikia!)

[up] That just looks goofy to me...I can't take the face or the pink blood seriously.

[up] The pink blood is a hallmark of Danganronpa so I assume anybody who's familiar enough with the game to be on its NF page won't be bothered too much by it.

I'd be more concerned about OP being a spoiler than not being taken seriously. Like I said before, the current seems fine as long as we axe the caption.

The only other suggestion I could find is this pic of Sayaka crying into Makoto from a scene near the beginning of the game, but I honestly still prefer the current.

[up]Yeah, I get a lot more sad vibes from the current than that.

I still prefer the current. 15.1 seems good, but the current does exude a level of hopelessness that the other does not. I say we keep it.

At most, you could change the caption (which I still don't think is entirely necessary), but that's it. If you do that, I'll just leave a suggestion for your consideration:

You'd feel the same way if you were in her situation.

Bump. Should we just keep the current, except without the chained pothole in the caption?

Sounds fine to me. Maybe a closer crop so her tears are more visible?

The current's already at super-consensus level. Tagging shortly; locking up.
