Nagito is the type of guy who, if he idolized firefighters, would commit frequent acts of arson just so the firefighters would have more opportunities to “be heroic”.

“Nagito seems chill, maybe we’ll hang out with Nagito.” I have legitimately never heard of a more ominous and foreboding sentence.

Love him or hate him, there's no denying that this character WILL leave one heck of an impact on you.

She basically embodies how Hajimeme feels about Nagito and it's hilarious "Like bruh stfu, i hate uu" but at the same time "hey let's hang out with him, why tf am I hanging out with him??"

Ah, the bagel boy, you hate to love him. That's how it is with every Danganronpa 2 player, lol. You always pick your favorites, you get angry at Komaeda, and at the end go "damnit, why do I love him"

So excited to see the 5 stages of the Nagito Komaeda grief.

"I'm gonna totally forget that [name] in about 5 seconds." Nagito then proceeds to become the most unforgettable character in the series

According to the wiki, one of the themes Nagito was developed with, is: "the fear of someone you can’t empathize with/someone that can’t empathize" Your reactions speaks for themselves really.

this character is the single most unifying character in the franchise. love him, hate him, everyone, EVERYONE, agrees that he's the most iconic, important character in the franchise. more iconic than any mascot.

I love the fact that when Nagito goes "No, that's wrong!" everyone is like "😦 HE SAID IT- HE SAID THE LINE- WH- THAT'S MY LINE WDYM???"

I love how Nagito gets a separate video, despite the fact that the SDR2 vid is mostly about him.

Crystal is doomed to have a character arc with almost any character of a new game she plays. It started with Akechi, and slowly went to other characters, like Majima, Sholmes, and now this Hopeful Dude.

Beginning: Let's all go on Komaeda's wild ride! Literally anytime later: Please let me off of Komaeda's wild ride.

i honestly couldn't even hate him 😭 his facial expressions, the way he speaks so sarcastically and his teenager surfer dude voice cracks me up LMAO

What a guy. The komaeda journey was endlessly entertaining

Fun fact: Nagito wasn't lying about his past!

Nagito is the personification of Brain Rot. He just does more and more mental damage to you until you just give up and threat him like a mascot or something lol

Hate him or love him, you cannot escape NAGITO KOMAEDA! * Nagito's wheeze laugh *

Tears of sadness were shed for Akechi. Tears of insanity were shed for Nagito.

Crystaahhl: Aw he's so cute! Nagito: **plays russian roulette**

Thinking of her reactions as Hajime's are pretty funny and accurate.

I absolutely loved how Nagito literally broke your brain with nearly every piece of dialogue. Can't really help but to respect the psycho, he was really committed to his view of the world.

As an old fossil who was around back when this was first being translated on SomethingAwful, I will never get tired of seeing other people go through the Komaeda Experience.

there are two kinds of people in this world the ones who loved nagito and then hated him after the reveal and then people who loved nagito and then loved him even more after the reveal

He's a very lovable character. I mean, obviously he's a dangerous person that IRL should probably be behind bars for both his sake and the safety of everyone else, but he's just so much fun in the game. He's also interesting because while he doesn't have a high opinion of himself, he unwillingly finds himself in a situation where he needs to become the "hero" that he was expecting to find in the group.

24:44 nothing beats that moment when you figure out what he was trying to do lmao

Nagito 🤝 Joshua 🤝 akechi The calm but crazy guys,and also boyfriends of the main Character

Hurrah, you did it. I was hoping you'd make a video for him. Nagito and Akechi are my favourite fictional people because I love complicated, antagonistic and divisive characters. I get more attached to them than the heroes of stories because I love trying to understand why they are who they are. And I enjoy watching other people's reactions to them. Your playthrough of this was the highlight of my week.

27:15 that's why I subscribe to the theory that he placed all the evidence they needed in his cottage instead of hiding it better so that the remnants of despair could have a chance at solving the mystery and thus achieving the greatest hope. although this remains largely a fan theory since this possibility was not brought up at all in the game

im loving the emotional whiplash she's feeling

Props to you, i didn´t even tried to understand nagito

Crystaahl: "Maybe he shuts up when he's dead." Me, remembering the time delay video message: 🤭🤭

Love seeing Nagito do this to people

the class was legit like "nagito's the traitor. why? vibes."

Man I love Crystaahl going full Tsundere when chat was going "You liiiike him!"

God, with this reaction to nagito... Im terrified by what kokichi will do to her mental state

Between nagito and akechi, it is so damn refreshing to see someone who within their playthrough can understand the nuances and complexities of a character and also love them Which is why I'd pay an arm and a leg to see you play Your Turn to Die

Shoutouts to the people in chat at 23:03 that said HOPIUM instead of COPIUM

crystaahhl : I need a break from this man game : alright, let's start the 2nd chapter with Nagito narration for you

Considering her reactions to Nagito and Akechi, I would LOVE to see Crystal react to Your Turn To Die. That game has probably my favorite Komaeda-type character

I love it when people lose their minds over Nagito’s personality, I mean I don’t think it’s possible to understand him but he’s still a nice guy I think, anyway this video was great, I’m actually new to this channel but this made me want to see more

Levels of confused: Slightly confused Moderately confused Absolutely bamboozled *Nagito*

Watching you lose your mind over Nagito was hilarious. I love the man and was both confused and intrigued by him when I played. SUCH a complex character and honestly, he made the game even better!

Ah yes, the reverse akechi

When I went blind into DR 2, thinking I will hate it, Nagito completely changed my view on the game. I'm happy someone like him even exists in any piece of media.

If she thinks that nagito is crazy right now, imagine her reaction to the danganronpa 3 anime. Well the prequel side of it anyway… honestly I think the entire thing could possibly break Crystal…

so like, nagito is by far my favourite dr character, i have so many hours of over analyzing him in my head and never got "the right" video on youtube adressing what i missed about experiencing nagito without like, a full plauthrough (which sucks since it takes forever). this video is legit exactly what i was looking for, someone who decided at the start of the game "here is a cool character" (based on design, flow of the game, voice acting, and just randomness), and from that point to be taken in to an amazing roller coaster. seeing the amount of attention he took from you through the video, i have so much in common in that aspect. and also, it was hillarious to me to see you say "i won't remember his name" RIGHT :D thanks for a brilliant video + sub

Ah yes the "Nagito Love and Hate Package", comes with Confusion and Despair truly the peak of any Danganronpa game. We should've called the game, "The Komaeda Files"

*nagito's sprite bounces into the room* *FEAR*

I used to hate Nagito's guts, but now I pity him. He is such an extremely confused kid, to put it lightly.

I always considered him entertaining and one of my favorites. I just didn't realize how much I really loved him until I was watching the anime and his foot showed up on screen and rocks started to fall, and I screamed for a whole minute.

CrystAAHHL seems to like problematic but interesting characters... *Looks at Akiechi*

I love all the different kinds of love ppl have for Nagito. Either you're a simp for him when it turns out he's evil, like Kubzscouts, or you deny loving him the entire game even though you secretly do

Neither love or hate works for the emotion one feels after seeing Nagito. It simply is an emotion without a current name. you simultaneously know he is a twisted person, but also want to believe he is doing a good, and want to see what he is up to

"I'm gonna forget him in five minutes." No you won't.

Crystal reacting to Nagito literally "excisting" or even mentionned was literally one of the funniest shit I have ever seen on a Danganronpa playthrought.

I agree with you, if he knows the truth, he might not do his suicide thing. The problem is, he just found out that his group are a remnant of despair, something that he hates so much. And Chiaki can't tell the truth to him either because she's not programmed to do it If Chiaki tells Nagito the truth, the game will go to different route, and maybe ends faster too. I wish I can see this alternate ending lol

Me about Danganronpa 1: I love the gameplay Me about Danganronpa 2: I love the Nagito Me about Danganronpa v3: I love the Kokichi

Oh no, where we go again with these unhinged pretty boys.

15:33 It would've been more insane if he kept all 6 bullets in the gun which would result in his luck jamming the gun. Kinda wish they did that instead

I don’t know a single thing about Dangaronpa, aside from seeing Nagito as a character and that Bryce Papenbrook voices him. But, Crystaahl’s reactions are just hilarious to see.

The opposite character development than the Akechi story which was hate to love. It ironic if you ask me

This guy makes the joker look like a reasonable person.

Being a Nagito fan isn't just a hobby, it's a lifestyle, a reason to breathe, an escape from this cruel world filled with thieves, it's art, the first gift you open on Christmas, a hug from a loved one, everything you've ever wanted, everything you need.

Crystal before: "I'm gonna try talking to Nagito!" Crystal after talking to Nagito: 14:26

how to describe nagito komaeda in one sentence "i don't understand"

Honestly, S tier character. I wanna punch him in the face.

It was sure a trip watching the stream and someone discovering Nagito for the first time. Totally agree that he gave up at the end because i think ironically he didn't really have hope himself so he couldn't find it in himself to think they, the remnants of despair, could really change.

From start to finish. Always thinking about him.

i love watching others' sdr2gd playthroughs and concentrate on their view on komaeda throughout the game. it's the main reason i watched almost all youtubers play it. there is just something very entertaining about seeing everyone die inside. you get to see some very meme-able expressions and reactions anytime he talks, some people completely skip through his dialogue while sighing and some people...just love him. i think crystal had some of the best reactions and i'm happy he got his own video. funni.

A reverse Akechi!! 😆😆 He's one of my faves but this is hilarious.

Ah yes.. DR2 be like in the beggining: Owe how cute DR2 after.. He would be cute being strangled with this freaking hope stuff

9:56 "i literally hate this man." the man in question: (⁠•⁠‿⁠•⁠)

I have the feeling, ever since Akechi the crazy Characters that Crys is meeting getting weirder and crasier with each game. Can`t wait for the next one X"D

The perfect character doesnt exi-: **Nagito Exists**

best character in the whole series for sure

Ah Nagito, the platonic ideal of surprise insanity.

you really went through a gamut of emotions with this one lmaooo glad to see you enjoyed Nagito's character!

Oh dear god, Nagito... I played Danganronpa 2 nearly 8 years ago, and I still don't know if I like him or hate him.

Man I found your DR2 video and I’ve been binge watching ever since. Your personality is the best.

best character in the series

I've said it before, but the rivals get harder and harder to wrap your brain around. Byakuya, while he wasn't an open book, it's not hard to tell what he wants and why he does things. Nagito, his actions and his motives aren't always pointing the same direction, but you can chalk it up to "Dude's brain is turning into swiss cheese." He really should have been chaperoned. I'm assuming if you're here you've played 1 and 2, spoilers for V3 Chapter 5 below break. And then fucking Kokichi, you never really know what he wants or why he is the way he is. His plans and his motives are known only to him. If left to his own devices, he gets up to some shit. You can't really take anything he says at face value.

Nagito is such a legend

Do you ever notice how he steals Hajime/Makotos "No that's wrong!" line in the first trial and just never does it again? BRO STOLE HIS SWAG AND DID IT ONCE!

so glad yall made this video LMAO i was hoping for this one

Yeeees. Love how you posted both your Akechi and Nagito journeys. They are my favorite characters in Danganronpa and P5, respectively.

Its quiet funny how polarizing every games asshole is. You gotta give it to the writers: Byakuya, Nagito and Kokichi are brilliantly written.

DUDEEEE this made my day :D Your reactions were so funny lol

When i first played i thought he was gonna be a 2nd Kyoko 💀

Honestly my experience with Nagito was very different. I loved him from the beginning, then when he turned out to be crazy I still loved him but it made me really sad and frustrated because I just couldn't understand him. It stayed that way until the trial for his death, when I found out he was hoping Chiaki would be his killer, then I hated him with all my being... and then I got over it and went back to loving him while watching the anime

I like how his name is also an anagram of Makoto Naegi

Bullying a girl? Not cool Hajime.

Love this vid lol Definitely gonna watch the DR2 vods after V3

Nagito is literally my favorite character from the entire Donganronpa series- Kokichi being a close second But I just *love* characters that are kind of cryptic and confusing, but so intriguing at the same time- with just the right amount of creepy

Let's just say, if you thought people shipping Akechi with Joker was nutty. Wait till you see the ships between Nagito and Hajime. By the way..... Nagito: DO YOU LIKE BOATS?!?!

My emotions were more or less the same Though i did know what to expect due to 1) never trusting a character that smiles like that and 2) knowing he's one of the most popular characters of the franchise, and in my experience, popular characters tend to be all sorts of messed up Nevertheless this is probably one of the most entertaining reaction videos I've watched- thank you for making a dedicated video 😂

Dealing with Nagito has given Crystaahl a new emotion.

Awesome compilation! Should've included Nicob's appearance in the chat tho that moment was great

crystaahhl's brain constantly rots when speaking to bagel boy

Ahhh Nagito. The barrel of insanity who is so, so gay for Hajime that even the voice actors for the anime joked about it in the outtakes of the final episode.
