This article contains information and transcripts for Sakura Ogami's Development Mode events from Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp.
Introduction[]
Wherever I am, it has no effect on my objectives or my regimen. What shall I work on here, then... |
Hope Fragment[]
While the title of strongest in the world remains yet out of reach, there is hope in my future. |
Friendship Events[]
Kirumi & Sakura[]
Kirumi & Sakura | |
---|---|
Whenever you're ready, Sakura. | |
Mm, I shall begin. | |
Hnn! | |
Haa! | |
Gwaaah! | |
Most impressive, Sakura. A new best time, and the hardness of rocks you break is quickly rising. | |
I'm in good form today...thanks to your help. You have my gratitude, Kirumi. | |
Setting and activating traps to obstruct me... Never have I had such a helpful assistant. | |
While questionable as training, this is worthwhile for children who aspire to martial arts. | |
Yes. And the filming completed without issue. I shall select the best cuts to use in the commercial. | |
Kirumi...I don't recall asking for that. I wouldn't want to take any more of your time... | |
Please, allow me. You accepted the job of inspiring our world's future, after all. | |
Among those children could be a future employer. Taking that into consideration, I'd like to help. | |
Put that way, I can't refuse. | |
Frankly, I'm not good at things like this. Your aid would help me greatly. | |
... | |
About the Li'l Ultimate children from the elementary school who accompanied us... | |
Yes? | |
When I look at them, I see incredible potential, but a warped instability as well. | |
I aim to stand alone as the strongest...but at times, it helps to look back upon others... | |
I feel much the same. It is our duty to consider the futures of these children. | |
We'll soon graduate Hope's Peak Academy... and join the ranks of adults, after all. | |
Yes...so it shall be. |
Leon & Sakura[]
Leon & Sakura | |
---|---|
Mmph! Hng! Hyah! | |
Phew... | |
Oh, hey. You all done with today's routine? | |
I am merely resting in advance of my next session. Do you need something of me? | |
Nah, not really. I was just takin' a walk and happened to catch you here. Impressive stuff. | |
Outta curiosity, what's the point of that? What do you get from whackin' a diamond with a hammer? | |
Ah, yes. It is an excellent core workout. | |
Nah, I don't mean like, the theory behind it. | |
What I wanna know is, how can you work this hard? | |
It's totally cool and I respect what you're doing. I just...I don't *get it*. | |
It is because I yearn to be the strongest fighter on Earth, but I doubt that answers your question. | |
Even I dunno what I'm getting at here. I just see people like you working day in and day out... | |
And I have to wonder *why*, y'know? | |
Did you not resolve to resume playing baseball? I believe you should have your answer then. | |
To me, baseball's all about the games. Playin', winnin'. I don't give a rat's ass about practice. | |
But everyone's like, "that's the wrong attitude." As if there's a "right" way to play the game. | |
Even the guys who don't care as long as I show up, deep down, they still disapprove of me. | |
You are a rather unfortunate man. | |
Huh? I've never thought that about myself. | |
And that is your privilege at work. | |
Yeah, you ain't makin' a lick of sense. Maybe you weren't the right person to ask. | |
My apologies. I am skilled with my fists, but less so my words. | |
Nevertheless, having heard you out, I do find myself somewhat concerned for your future. | |
Should the day come when you are no longer able to play baseball as you do today... | |
I fear for what may happen to you. I pray that my fear prove unfounded. | |
You mean like, I get sick or injured? | |
Among other numerous possibilities, yes. | |
I mean, I'll be careful, I guess. But jeez, you weren't jokin' about being bad with words, Sakura. | |
Still. Thanks for listenin', and sorry for dumpin' all my crap in your lap! | |
I gladly offer you my ear should you ever need it. | |
Although I realize that there is no one here capable of truly understanding your situation. |
Chihiro & Sakura[]
Chihiro & Sakura | |
---|---|
Sakura...your muscles are really something. | |
I know it's the result of a ton of hard work over many years, but... | |
I'm thinking of working harder so I can become even a fraction as cool as you. | |
"Cool," you say... Hrm... | |
Oh...d-do you not like being called that? | |
Do not misunderstand me--you clearly conveyed your genuine intent to compliment me. | |
That's good... Some girls don't like to be called cool, so you had me worried there... | |
I can speak only for myself, but regardless of your words, I feel no displeasure at flattery. | |
Words aside, it is another matter when I can read that one underestimates me for my gender. | |
... | |
Judging someone for their gender... It's so unfortunate when people view others that way. | |
Gender is a matter of much contention within the field of martial arts especially. | |
But regardless of what others may think... my goal is overwhelming strength to silence all critics. | |
You know, maybe what makes you so cool is the life you lead. |
Sakura & Celestia[]
Sakura & Celestia | |
---|---|
You may rest and recuperate here. Does your foot still hurt? | |
The pain is mostly gone now thanks to you. Carrying me was quite the help. | |
A fine blunder twisting my ankle... | |
I was walking along carelessly and got blinded by the brilliant sun. | |
It doesn't appear to be swollen... Nonetheless, we should have Mikan examine it. | |
Mikan, you say... I suppose it can't very well be avoided. I simply...feel rather incompatible. | |
This is no time for such qualms. I shall call for her right away. Please wait here. | |
How unlucky... | |
Are you speaking of your fall? | |
No...I mean my present circumstance. | |
My luck is peerless when it comes to gambling... and, unfortunately, only gambling. | |
As difficult as it is to admit, I believe this incident serves as a grim reminder of that fact. | |
Hmm...I do not understand. For what reason is my presence bad luck? | |
Why couldn't you be a handsome man instead... | |
I beg your pardon? | |
Sakura, Kirumi...even Teruteru, whose culinary skills I am unfortunately forced to acknowledge... | |
Of all those whose skills and consideration I'd accept into my castle... | |
...none are handsome men. Is that not the epitome of bad luck? | |
Alas, a man with whom you match is sure to be a rare encounter indeed. | |
Indeed... I've yet to meet a handsome man who meets my criteria. | |
As the sands of time pass, so too may the tides of fortune change. Patience is a virtue. | |
How does one live with this...patience? What a bother... |
Sakura & Gundham[]
Sakura & Gundham | |
---|---|
Hmm, an unexpected guest. Where are your brethren? | |
Do you not fear me? I am impressed by such courage in such a small body. | |
I've found you, Maga-Z! | |
Your master has come to retrieve you. Go, return to him. | |
What is wrong? Are you not one of Gundham's hamsters? | |
Hmm, it seems he sensed your extraordinary combat prowess and considers it comforting stimulation. | |
He is one of the Four Dark Devas of Destruction. His barrier differs from that of other familiars. | |
I see... Long since had I accepted my fate of being feared by all small things. | |
But small things too can live powerful lives. I understand now why Peko respects you, Gundham. | |
These beings walk with me, Supreme Overlord. Their power is but a given. | |
However, fear is not alien to them, as beings born into a skittish species... | |
As such, they are able to quickly discern between that which must be feared, and what ought not. | |
So that is their strength... | |
Heh... Very well. If you've taken a liking to me, you may visit whenever you'd like, Maga-Z. | |
To tame the heart of She Who Reigns... Heh. Perhaps this too is a familiar's power. |
Sakura & Nekomaru[]
Sakura & Nekomaru | |
---|---|
Hah! | |
Gwoooooohhh! | |
Hoo, hah, grrryaaah! | |
Phew... | |
Nice work, Sakura! Time for a break! | |
Yes...a fine proposal. My apologies for taking up your time yet again. | |
Hmph, that's not something an athlete should worry about. I'm just doing my job. | |
Your job as a manager who may serve also as my sparring partner may be the only one of its kind. | |
Heck, you and Akane ought to go toe to toe. You'd both reach new heights! | |
She gives almost *too* much of her all, and she thinks sparring is the only form of training! | |
Live combat is the most optimal method of training one's perception... Such must be Akane's nature. | |
I can understand that. But even sparring has its limits. | |
If Akane seriously wants to reach new heights, she's gotta change up her approach. | |
I hope this camp serves as that opportunity... | |
Heh, you consider the athlete over your own self. You are truly a manager to your very core. | |
Gahaha! I mean, that's just who I am! | |
Anyway, break time is about over. Let's get back to it, Sakura! Come at me with all you've got! | |
Very well... May my fists be empowered with both respect and gratitude. |
Sakura & Akane[]
Sakura & Akane | |
---|---|
Is something the matter, Akane? You look troubled. | |
Hmm... So we're supposed to be explorin' new stuff during this training camp, yeah? | |
I was thinkin', instead of just sparring, I'd observe your technique as well. | |
Hmm. Studying the movement of others for what you may lack is another form of training indeed. | |
Exactly! So don't mind my staring. | |
And damn, what I'd give to have your build. I guess I'm just not eating enough meat, huh? | |
Using others as a reference can be useful, but it is meaningless if you lose sight of yourself. | |
It is true that you lack my sheer muscle volume, but your flexible body is a powerful weapon. | |
Greater bulk would necessitate fundamental change in your movement, style, and daily routine. | |
Think well about the power and way of life you seek. Never lose sight of your life as a gymnast. | |
Man, that blows. I thought we were supposed to be tryin' new things? | |
Training is a never-ending cycle of trial and error. | |
If you abandon such principles... your strength may very well stagnate. | |
What'd you say? You sayin' I can't beat you? | |
Have it your way then! I'll be stronger in my own way...and I *will* beat you! | |
Heh...such is the soul of competition. | |
But make no mistake--I too shall hone my strength as I march toward an ever higher apex... | |
Ah, who cares! You're goin' *down* either way! |
Himiko & Sakura & Nekomaru[]
Himiko & Sakura & Nekomaru | |
---|---|
Urgh...hnnnng... | |
Nyeh! It's no use. The power of your very beings alone is too powerful! | |
You're the one who suddenly dropped by to watch us train! What's up with you, shorty? | |
Hmph... What do you mean by "power"? | |
You know, power! Being a giant is part of it, but your bold attitude generates a bunch of power! | |
I see... Power that manifests from mannerisms. Perhaps that's what some call "pluck." | |
I want that kind of power too! | |
With that much power... I'd gain a level in mage. | |
And I'd never lose to pesky people like Kokichi again! Probably! | |
Heck, with enough power, I bet your magic shows would be better than ever. | |
Exactly! And that's why I'm here, trying to steal the secrets behind your power. | |
But there's no way I could ever be as fearless and scary as you two... Nyeeeh... | |
My determination to fulfill my destiny to become the strongest drove me to never back down... Day after day of training accumulated into self-confidence, in turn paving my path. | |
Whether or not that's helpful to you, I'm not sure, but that is my personal experience. | |
D-Destiny... Determination... Training... I've barely heard those words in my entire life... | |
Don't strain your tiny little head. Let's put it another way that suits you better. | |
Desire, will, practice... Don't that sound a little better? | |
...Nyeh? | |
The desire to make the audience smile, the will to make that a reality... | |
And daily magic trick practice to make it happen! How's that? Not too far off the mark, huh? | |
Ohh...I get it now! I really get it! You used lots of words fitting for a mage! | |
Oh, but it's not tricks. It's *magic*. | |
Replacing the words to match Himiko herself... Amusing that such a thing would make a difference. | |
Heh, what's the role of a manager if not to give everyone their very own image for success? | |
Right... Desire, will, practice... With these three things, I'll put on the best show ever! |
Maki & Sakura & Nagisa[]
Maki & Sakura & Nagisa | |
---|---|
Oh, Sakura... I'm not used to seeing you at the restaurant at this hour. | |
I made an error and forgot to prepare my protein shake for tomorrow morning... | |
Do you often come here around this time, Maki? | |
More or less. I often work out at night, so I'll usually drop by afterwards to get a drink. | |
You're...Nagisa, was it? Hold on a second. | |
What is it? I'm in a hurry. If you have business with me, make it short. | |
You shouldn't take that entire platter. Kirumi prepared that for everyone. | |
This wouldn't be enough for "everyone." Besides, that maid probably won't care who eats it. | |
Perpetually energetic Masaru aside, the other kids ate too many snacks and couldn't finish dinner. | |
That's... We can eat what we want and when, right? | |
No, that is far from admissible. The nutritional value of snacks pales in comparison to real food. | |
Your body won't grow on snacks alone. Exercise restraint and eat three proper meals daily. | |
Appropriate nutritional intake is necessary for healthy growth, muscle, and brain development. | |
Good grief, are you really going to gang up on me? We'll never grow up anyway, so it's a moot point. | |
That again? I know you hate adults, but fixating on that will do you no favors in the future. | |
Yes, well, good luck changing our minds. Anyway, I'll be taking this tray now. | |
He's gone. Maki, are you sure we shouldn't have stopped him? | |
Forcing him to listen wouldn't have helped... It would just reinforce his stubbornness. Let's wait and see if he keeps staying up late or gets tired of snacking...and then we'll warn him. | |
Hmm, I see. As one unaccustomed to children, this is a novel experience for me... | |
I don't think this is the best approach. If left to Kirumi, she'd fix him swiftly and effectively. | |
No need for such humility... You truly are the Ultimate Child Caregiver. | |
I would have never noticed that they aren't eating proper meals, after all... | |
I...just happened to be sitting nearby and caught a glimpse, that's all. |
Sakura & Junko? & Ibuki[]
Sakura & Junko? & Ibuki | |
---|---|
Mmmm-hmm, a muscular body is pah-retty sweet. You're both lookin' damn fine! | |
What, me? Next to Sakura, I look like a stick figure. | |
No, you are very well proportioned. While slim at a glance, there's nothing wasteful on you. | |
Yeah, that's exactly it! You have a body of steel! Heck, I bet you could stop a train with that bod. | |
Y-You've got a good eye, though I am embarrassed. | |
If I got ripped, I wonder if I could put on even sicker performances... | |
You may look delicate, but you have stamina. I've never seen someone headbang so incessantly. Aren't you fine the way you are? A slender build seems better suited for a musician. | |
Ibuki has her own good qualities...but if you want to work out, I won't stop you. | |
Urgh, you two are so kind! I can feel a sense of mental leeway from you ripped folks! | |
True, I look pretty decent on stage the way I am, but I'm always pushing myself to be the best. Not chasing the latest fad, but figuring out what my personal best is in any given moment! | |
Ooh, I like the sound of that. Maybe I'll give that a shot myself. | |
The destinations are few when honing muscle, but if beauty is your aim, there are many roads. | |
You need only aim for what you sense is best for yourself. I'll provide any advice I am able. | |
Aww hell yeah! You're too good to me! I'm gonna start getting swole first thing tomorrow! |
Junko & Sakura & Ibuki[]
Junko & Sakura & Ibuki | |
---|---|
Aww yiss, a muscular body is pah-retty sweet. You're both lookin' damn fine! | |
A beautiful body has precisely as much muscle as it needs. My apologies if I'm *too* beautiful. | |
True... Given your present occupation, your body type may be ideal. | |
Junko looks hella thin at a glance, but it's not like she's lacking in the meat department! | |
Imagine how much better my concerts would be if I got totally swole... | |
You're fine just the way you are, Ibuki. It's not like you're too frail to pick up a guitar. | |
Yeah, true, but I never wanna stop striving to be the best I can be. | |
Ah, I get that. Sometimes I ask myself whether I'm at my strongest and best as well. | |
There's more I could be doing... I'm nowhere near my full potential... Stuff like that. I've worked hard to get where I am now, y'know? | |
I, too, know that feeling well. Unleashing a powerful strike, yet immediately questioning the potential of one's power... | |
In such repetition, one can climb ever higher. | |
See, so I *was* on the right track! I'm gonna push myself until I can rock the dang house down! |
Special Events[]
Potential of Talent[]
What are some ideas you have for unlocking new potential in your talent? | |
---|---|
In martial arts, there is no apex. I simply strive to climb ever higher, seeking new heights. |
Perhaps I should try rock climbing... | |
---|---|
Hmph... That posed little struggle. | |
Damn, Sakura! Get a few more muscles and I don't think you'll count as human anymore! You were all like, zip! Zoom! Fwoosh! You climbed that rock like something out of a manga! | |
Monokuma. If you came here to interfere with my training... | |
Who, me? Interfere? Never! In fact, I'm here to help! | |
Help? You, notorious for meddling in the affairs of others? | |
You need me, Sakura. After all, you're drifting further and further from being human... As you grow in strength, you'll overtake every opponent you swore you'd surpass... | |
You'll leave humans in the dust, and you'll be left with no opponents to fight. And that, my friend, is where I come in! Even if you somehow bust me, I have replacements! | |
You are saying you will serve as my opponent? | |
I'll be your opponent. Plus, I've gotta benchmark what kinda Monokuma is required to beat you. | |
Very well. Let us fight. | |
However...as long as others challenge me, I will never run out of opponents to fight. | |
I fought Monokuma until the sun set. |
Perhaps I should try long-distance swimming... | |
---|---|
Mahiru. | |
Sorry for the stealth photo! You with an ocean background was just too perfect not to snap. | |
It is fine. A photo can be a splendid thing at times. Never have I felt more physically fulfilled... | |
Surely, a record of this time will serve me well later on. | |
Right... Your body is your greatest asset, so I definitely see what you mean. | |
I too will grow old. However, when that time comes, rather than lament what I have lost... | |
I would rather cherish all that I had built. | |
Ahaha... I didn't mean to make you think of all this heavy stuff just from one sneaky picture. | |
Anyway, mind if I take a bunch more pictures of you today? You're here to swim, right? I can take photos of your graceful form from here. | |
Yes... I would be grateful. | |
Mahiru took dozens of pictures of me. |
I should strive for greater concentration... | |
---|---|
The giant monster Ogredon has appeared! And now I, the great hero, shall slay you! | |
Oh? A child. | |
Curse you, Ogredon! What have you been eating to get this huge? I bet you've got a huge wiener too! Time to strip you down and see! | |
I am a woman. | |
Alright, chaaarge! I'm gonna slay me a monster! | |
Dammit, don't dodge me! How am I supposed to kill you! | |
You should not say such things so lightly. | |
Oof! | |
I-I'm not scared. I'm not scared of you at all... | |
I have no intention of harming you. If I am intruding, I will leave this place. I can train elsewhere. | |
The heck? I just said I'm not scared! |
Summer Festival[]
There's a festival underway where you can try things unrelated to your talent! We were tasked with performing Momotaro, and it is now my time to fight as the demon chief! | |
---|---|
At last, you appear before me, Momotaro. I knew your ilk would arrive someday, but it ends here! |
First, I will butcher your dog companion. | |
---|---|
M-Me!? Please spare my life! I'll do anything! | |
Fear not, child. You will feel no pain. Of that I will make certain. | |
Eeeeek! Help me, Momotaro! | |
I chased Mikan, the dog, around stage, though I had difficulty not frightening her too much. |
First, I will butcher your monkey companion. | |
---|---|
Wh-What fine taste you have, demon. If you want a dance, then I'll give you a dance. | |
You look quite tasty, monkey. I will fry you in oil and gobble you whole. | |
I-I-I-I prefer cooking to being cooked! Unless it's a sex thing, then cook me right up! | |
Teruteru diverged from the script too much, so I flicked him harder than necessary! |
First, I will butcher your pheasant companion. | |
---|---|
You would go after me? I can fly. If you think you can catch me, give it your best shot. | |
Do not look down on me, pheasant. I will hurl you against the ground and rip off your wings. | |
Momotaro will defeat you before you can lay one claw on me. Don't forget who your real enemy is. | |
Together with Kyoko, we acted out a feverishly intense battle scene! |
Campfire[]
It's been a wild ride, but our time here is almost over. We're having a bonfire as a send-off! | |
---|---|
I must consider how I use the limited time we have left carefully. Shall I spend it talking? Dancing? |
You should join the dance with me, Maki. | |
---|---|
I didn't think that was your thing. | |
Perhaps not, but I have the urge to try something new to work up a sweat this evening. | |
I've...done my fair share of dances at events and get-togethers at the orphanage, actually. | |
I suppose that makes sense for a caregiver. | |
Perhaps you could teach me to dance then? I trained with Kotoko, but I still have far to go. | |
I'd be happy to, hehe. I never thought I would be teaching you anything, Sakura. | |
With Maki's assistance, I joined the folk dance. |
Training with you proved quite enriching, Tenko. | |
---|---|
Likewise! Not many people have the chance to spar with the future world's strongest. I'm very lucky! | |
I too consider myself to be greatly blessed. | |
I shall never forget the time I spent with you, Akane, Peko, and Nekomaru working to improve. | |
P-Please stop... You're making all these emotions swirl around inside me uncontrolled... | |
...and then come exploding out of my face. I'm nothing by wrinkles and tears and snot now! | |
It is nothing to be ashamed of. I envy your ability to so earnestly express your emotions. | |
I consoled Tenko as she collected herself. |
It has been some time since we spoke, Kyoko. | |
---|---|
I have a question. What does strength mean to you? | |
If you mean the martial arts I practice, that's just a survival tool to me. | |
Probably not the answer you wanted though. | |
No, I understand. While the things we value most may differ, our approach to life is quite similar. | |
We devote all our energy to our respective lifestyles, be it martial arts or detective work. | |
You're right about that. Maybe we aren't so different. | |
Although...we might share that trait with every other student who bears an Ultimate talent. | |
We place ourselves in unusual circumstances, yet the road we travel stays constant. | |
Right. I've observed the same thing. | |
Nonetheless, we ourselves are not immutable. | |
These new experiences broaden our horizons, offer us new perspectives and make us flexible. | |
And I believe these will all prove beneficial. | |
Yeah. We may still be traveling the same road, but the way we approach obstacles has changed. | |
I apologize for burdening you with all this. | |
It appears that even I am, at times, taken with the desire to confide in another. | |
Kyoko and I quietly conversed. |
With Swimsuits[]
- Event triggered when playing Development Mode using an S Rank or UR Rank card.
With Swimsuits | |
---|---|
A'ight, Sakura, let's do this. | |
Has everyone exited the water? Very well. | |
Oooooooooooh... | |
HRAH! | |
Y-You parted the sea! With a punch! That's freakin' wild! Even for a split second! | |
Y-You can't be serious... This isn't some stupidly high-budget movie! | |
This is nothing but a parlor trick. It brings me no closer to becoming the strongest fighter. | |
That doesn't make it any less impressive. It really gets the point across to the uninitiated. | |
That's irrelevant. I do not train for accolades. | |
Whoopsie daisy... Sorry for bugging you to show us. | |
Worry not. It was I who chose to demonstrate the technique. | |
So you're saying you did it to entertain us even though it goes against your principles? | |
Your goal is to be the strongest fighter! But your strength extends well beyond that! If anything, you're the perfect example of how strength can be used for all sorts of things! | |
Kaito's exactly right. A talent is a beautiful, multifaceted gemstone. | |
We're wonderfully lucky to have been here to get a glimpse of a hidden facet of your talent. | |
Fascinating. The thought never occurred to me. | |
Don't worry about the ideas. As your strength grows, you'll instinctively know how to use it. | |
Perhaps you're correct. | |
Maaan, I *really* want to see that again... but they'd probably bite my head off if I asked. |
My Future...[]
- Event triggered when playing Development Mode using a UR Rank card.
Requires the player to have seen all other Friendship events during the run.
My Future... | |
---|---|
Alright, that's a wrap for today's training! Good work Shuichi, Maki Roll! | |
Kaito, you seem way more motivated than usual. It'd be nice if you always trained like that. | |
C'mon, I'm always motivated! I just put more emphasis on communication this time! | |
I'm surprised though... Sakura came to observe our training. | |
This is pretty much how it always goes, us working out on a whim. Was any of it a useful reference? | |
Indeed, it was a refreshing change of pace. | |
Really? You're too considerate. | |
No, my spirit truly does feel refreshed. | |
More than simply honing your bodies, you are also spending time with friends and forming bonds. | |
I do nothing but train, seeking to become the strongest, but I understand the value of bonds. | |
I knew you'd understand, Sakura! Training is about far more than simply beefing up the body! | |
It's a little embarrassing to hear that from you though, Sakura. We're not doing anything special. | |
My words are sincere. The time I have spent here was most meaningful, after all. | |
Prior to this field trip, I never considered using my strength for anything besides combat. | |
The same could be said for training. I understood that training differed for each individual... | |
But here, I reconsidered the use of strength and the meaning of training. For that, I thank you. | |
Thank you too. When I thought about you watching, I couldn't help but push myself harder. | |
The paths we walk may differ, but that is why we provide each other with stimulation. | |
So...what're you gonna do now that your horizons have been expanded? | |
I still aim to become the strongest in the land. I advance only forward... That is who I am. | |
Heh, true enough! I had a feeling you'd say that! | |
So ultimately...nothing changes. | |
What Sakura does doesn't change, sure! But her emotions are refreshed anew... Right? | |
Indeed. The strength I possess, as well as my training, takes on entirely new meanings. | |
Upon this realization, my approach to walking my own path will change, likely for the better. | |
Likely? Definitely, I say! I can guarantee it! | |
A guarantee from you sounds dubious at best. | |
Aww, c'mon! It's a hero's guarantee! | |
Uh...don't mind them, Sakura. I know exactly what you meant. | |
I am not bothered in the slightest. On the contrary, I am quite enjoying this liveliness. |
Appearances in Special Events for Other Characters[]
Potential of Talent[]
Are there any other uses for my power? (Maki Harukawa) | |
---|---|
My talent's potential... But which of the two? Are there any other uses for my power? | |
Hmm, uses for your power, you say... | |
Was that weird to bring up out of the blue? | |
No... I have observed you, and determined through your behavior that you are a person of skill. But some would hide their true powers. | |
I thought it may be a taboo subject, but I see now that this is not the case. | |
But why come to me? Surely there are others here whom you trust more than I. | |
In my eyes, among everyone who wields their power correctly, you're the strongest one of all. I'll never be able to do what you do...but I'd at least like to speak with you. | |
I will not inquire as to your circumstances, but I do not believe everyone should follow my path. A power may be used for fighting, but also for protecting, and at other times for introspection. | |
Such is the way of martial arts--it need not be kept to one usage, unless you aim to be the best. | |
That certainly isn't my intention. I have no need to be any stronger than I already am. But...you're right, I don't have to focus on any one thing if I use my power in multiple ways. | |
You can snap an assailant's bone one day, and with those same hands help an elder carry groceries. Great power on its own is meaningless. The wielder of that power is what gives it meaning. | |
You're right... | |
What can I do with this power today... Perpahs I should think outside the box. |
Sakura... Have you come up with an idea? (Nekomaru Nidai) | |
---|---|
Hmph! A team manager has no potential without any athletes to manage. | |
My potential grows proportionally to the number of people who NEED MY HELP! Sakura... Have you come up with an idea? | |
Until I become the strongest fighter on Earth, I have no time to waste on distractions. | |
If I may be so bold, I don't think discovering new potential within you counts as a distraction. But that's a question you must answer yourself. All I can do is provide you my assistance. | |
But by the by, because of you, I've found a new potential for my talent. | |
Did I do something? | |
The overwhelming power of your simple being guided me to an answer. I have no doubt that someday, you will become the strongest fighter in the land. | |
Strengths begets solitude, and the strongest is only one. As such, it can be quite tiring. | |
What are you saying? | |
There's something I can do for you, and for all who would follow in your footsteps. | |
I'll train new, young athletes into candidates to take your throne. | |
How is that any different from your normal duties? | |
It's not! You're absolutely right! But just by adding that objective, of training warriors to defeat you, the world's strongest... | |
...completely changes the meaning of that work! | |
I see. | |
When you eventualy become the strongest and find yourself without new opponents, remember me. | |
I'll make sure you've always got someone trying to take you down! You'll never be alone! | |
That is still a distant dream, of no relevance to me in my current standing. | |
Nonetheless, I will remember your words. Your heart is in the right place, at least. | |
I resolved to aim higher than ever before! |
Sakura works so hard. I'll go cheer her on! (Shirokuma) | |
---|---|
Hmm... Instead of doing things for myself, I'd prefer helping someone else. Sakura works so hard. I'll go cheer her on! | |
Hnn! Ha! Gwohhh! | |
She has such spirit... I don't have a fighting bone in me, but even I'm impressed... | |
*inhale* | |
Is she done with her boulder breaking session? Sakura sure is strong! I'm profoundly moved! | |
You don't have a durable body like us, so reaching that level must have taken considerable effort. How amazing. It was rude of me to assume that women are weak. | |
What is this so suddenly? Is there any benefit to you observing my training? | |
Oh, are you suspicious of me? Don't you worry! I'm based on Monokuma, true, but... | |
I'm trying to be on the gentler side of robots, like Monomi and Keebo! | |
... HA! | |
Waaah!? | |
If you cause any harm to my classmates, I shall do to you as I did to that boulder. | |
Perhaps my caution is misplaced. I promise to bow my head to you if I am mistaken. | |
Th-That was a bit of a startle... I'll do my best to earn your trust, Sakura. | |
If I had a heart, it might have skipped a beat! |
To fight another master fighter means... (Tenko Chabashira) | |
---|---|
Potential... So like, what I should use my talent for when I finally become a Neo-Aikido master? | |
It means... I officially challenge Sakura to a duel! I'll have to put my all into that! | |
Oh? So you wish to fight me, as Akane did? | |
Neo-Aikido's guiding principle is "contributing to world peace." Honing strength is not its focus. But I'd be lying if I said my martial artist spirit wasn't quaking in your presence, Sakura. | |
Hearing that from a fellow Ultimate martial artist is quite an honor indeed. | |
I shall accept your challenge whenever and wherever you wish. | |
Oof, apparently she's darn near the strongest person on Earth. Her dignity is inspiring too! | |
But I, Tenko, am an Ultimate as well! I can't just look up to her forever! Instead... I'll work extra hard so that one day I can stand toe to toe with her! | |
Talking to Sakura reinforced my determination! |
Summer Festival[]
Let us sit back and await their attack. (Korekiyo Shinguji) | |
---|---|
We decided to put on a play of Momotaro. We are in the middle of the performance... Momotaro has arrived at Demon Isle... The end of the story draws nigh... | |
Now...as the one inside the demon, I must consider how I shall chase down my foes. Let us sit back and await their attack. | |
Mm. No trickery is necessary. If they dare challenge us, we accept. That is all... | |
Kehehe... That is the Demon King spirit indeed. | |
They seem to have an army on their side. let us join the battle should they arrive, hmm? | |
Very well. Our foes are frail humans and beasts. Let us show mercy and finish them with haste... | |
Sakura's ferocious antagonist energy was quite the hit among the audience. |
Sakura'd make a great lead. (Mondo Owada) | |
---|---|
We decided we're going to perform Momotaro, so now we need to pick who's playing who. There's no point in me taking the starring role. The festival's about doing things differently. Sakura'd make a great lead. | |
...But I am *female*. | |
Man, that don't mean shit. He's the strongest character, and you're the strongest person. | |
Perhaps. But Momotaro is a demonslaying warrior, and I am a martial artist who fights with fists. | |
There must be someone more fitting to the role, as well as capable of learning so many lines. | |
After talking it over, we decided Sakura would play the demon chief! |
I'll practice the battle with the demon chief. (Peko Pekoyama) | |
---|---|
We're to perform Momotaro...and I've been selected for the lead role. Everyone entrusted me with the task... I can't take this lightly. I'll practice hard. I'll practice the battle with the demon chief. | |
Hah! | |
It will take more than that to best me! | |
Tch... You're a fearsome foe indeed... But unless I slay you, my journey cannot end! | |
That's enough. Let's stop for now. I'd like to revise my movements. | |
Indeed. If this is to be a showdown before an audience, it must be more impactful. | |
Showing my swordplay to spectators... That's something I've never considered. | |
To make our battle more dramatic, I sparred with Sakura until nightfall! |
Campfire[]
Let's rumble, Sakura! (Akane Owari) | |
---|---|
Phew, I am *stuffed*! Time to burn off Teruteru's grub with a bit of exercise! Let's rumble, Sakura! | |
I do not mind...in a short while, for I am still dining. With that having been said... | |
This may prove a valuable and rewarding opportunity to join the folk dance. | |
Ya think? It looks so dull with all those slow movements. | |
You would do well to take advantage of this situation before saying such things. | |
Would it not be a worthy memory to tell your siblings about? | |
When you put it that way...little sister number two would probably be all over that. | |
Well, damn. I'll consider it a warmup then. But you'd better be up for fighting me after! | |
Sakura and I joined the dance, and then we fought! |
I don't want to dance among the older folks. (Kotoko Utsugi) | |
---|---|
A bonfire and a folk dance, huh... I've seen kids' games put together better than this. How quaint. I don't want to dance among the older folks. | |
Er, are you going to dance, monster girl? | |
Indeed. Such an activity is rather nice at times. Are you not going to dance? | |
I'll just watch. It'd be difficult to dance among so many tall people. | |
Does a difference in height make dance difficult? | |
Oh...I guess you'd have a tough time too in that case, huh. | |
Oh well... Would you like to try dancing with me before joining the stage? | |
If you can manage with me, you should be fine with the others. | |
That would be a great help indeed. | |
No problem. This might be my one and only chance to get a monster girl to owe me a favor. | |
In exchange...please listen to my request the next time I'm in a bind. | |
Understood. I will do everything in my power to help should such a time come. | |
I found an unexpected way to gain a favor from one of the strongest people in the world! |
Their wariness aside, I wish for their happiness. (Shirokuma) | |
---|---|
Everyone seems to be having fun. Just watching them gives me hope. Their wariness aside, I wish for their happiness. | |
I understand that you're different from Monokuma. | |
But I must protect those incapable of fighting. My caution stems from this promise. Forgive me. | |
Oh no, it's fine. You sure are kind, Sakura. | |
Not only are you trying to protect everyone, you're even being considerate of me. | |
For someone like you...I wish from the bottom of my heart that you see a wonderful tomorrow! | |
Though at a short distance, I talked with Sakura. |
With Swimsuits[]
With Swimsuits (Aoi Asahina) | |
---|---|
Mmm, that was fun! I hardly ever get a chance to swim in the ocean! It's always the pool for me! | |
And you know what's best after a good workout? A *huge* meal. Extra, extra huge today! | |
Kehehe, what a splendid sight. I almost feel a slight pang of jealousy. | |
Wha-- I didn't see you at all. Did you go for a swim too? | |
Something closer to diving, I would say. I had no gear for a proper dive though. | |
I simply submerged myself in the ocean, observing the beautiful nature within. | |
Dang, I never thought of doing that. When I see water, the first thing I think is "SWIM!" | |
Under normal circumstances, I would not either. My interest lies almost solely in human culture. | |
But I diverged from my usual thought process out of a desire to share these seas with my sister. | |
It's not every day you see such pretty waters, so I bet she'll love hearing about what you saw! | |
Maybe I'll brag to my brother when I get back. I can already see him getting super jealous. | |
Kehehe, that sounds lovely. I adore how every set of siblings has their unique relationship. | |
Do you two get on well? From the way you always talk about your sister, she must be a great person. | |
Indeed she is. My sister deeply yearns for friends, so I would love to introduce you two. | |
Really? I'm always in the market for new friends, so I'd be happy to. | |
At last I have found you, Aoi. | |
Heya, Sakura! All done with your workout? | |
... | |
Is something the matter, Sakura? You're glowering. | |
Perhaps I am on edge after a strenuous workout. I mean no ill will against you. Do forgive me. | |
Hey Sakura, are you hungry? Let's go grab a bite together! | |
Indeed. Perhaps I should partake of something cold and sweet for a change. | |
Very well. I'll be taking my leave then. | |
Oh man, sorry for dropping out on you. Tell me more about your sister some other time! | |
As much as I would love to, that would be tragically unwise with Sakura present. |
With Swimsuits (Mikan Tsumiki) | |
---|---|
Ooh, there really is an open-air bath here. How wonderful... | |
Um, d-does anyone mind if I join in? | |
You're more than welcome of course, Mikan! You're a wonderful girl, after all! | |
Besides, this bath belongs to everyone. No need to ask, just hop in. | |
Th-Thank you so much! Please excuse me then! ...Ah! | |
Huh? | |
Wehhh! I-I slipped and fell and got water in my mouth... *cough* | |
Ablub, ablubblubblubblub! | |
Oh no, Tenko! She ended up under Mikan! | |
*cough* I-I'll move now... EEK! Please don't pull my swimsuit's strings! | |
Calm yourself. Be deliberate with your movement. I shall lift you... | |
*pant pant pant* I could see my master waving to me from across the river... | |
Isn't your master still alive? | |
I'm so sorry. It's not like me to slip and fall like that... | |
No, it's fine. I like to think of it as you shielding me from harm on top of me. | |
Can't say I ever expected to nearly drown in an outdoor bath though. | |
I'm truly sorry... Even groveling at your feet underwater wouldn't be enough of an apology... | |
I was trying to be careful, but for some reason it always ends up like this... | |
Mikan... If you're having trouble, how about joining us for some workout sessions? | |
W-Workouts? With me? | |
A fine proposal. One's ability to balance, as well as compensate when they take a fall... | |
These things can be honed with training. Perhaps I can assist you as well... | |
Me too, of course. We won't work ya *too* hard either. Whatcha think? | |
Can I...actually do that? | |
You never know until you try. It couldn't hurt to keep a positive attitude either. | |
If it doesn't work, that just means it wasn't a good match for you, and that's good to know. | |
I see... I'll try not to cause much trouble for you all... | |
But sign me up. I-I'm looking forward to this! |
With Swimsuits (Miu Iruma) | |
---|---|
Hyah-hahaha! Sorry to keep y'all waiting! | |
Prepare to shit your eyeballs out your ass as you behold this sexy goddess inventor! | |
I admire your...I'm not sure if self-esteem is quite accurate, but whatever that is. | |
Don't hide it--get that bread, I say! And if it ever comes to it, you can sell your undies. | |
Hell no I won't! No matter how much I'm offered. I'm looking for a guy who would never throw me away. | |
I support enjoying your liberties, but I would ask you to avoid such topics around Hina. | |
Oof, this might be the first time I've lost to someone in terms of physique... | |
What, you lose to Sakura but not me!? I've got twice as much muscle as you! | |
That's not what this is about! Get with the program, smooth brain! | |
Well, no one beats Sakura... Not that this is a competition. | |
It is an unpleasant feeling to have one's body judged by such standards... | |
Oh...sorry. I try to be mindful of others with those kinds of jokes, but Miu baited me... | |
Pay it no mind. This "girl talk" concept is rather a refreshing change of pace... | |
Urgh, if I'm not the best in the world for my bomb-ass physique, why even keep on living... | |
Uh, when did this get so extreme? | |
If you desire a stronger body, simply train. That is how my body was forged. | |
I've GOT it! If I can make an invention that lets me work out while sleeping, I'll win! | |
Somehow, I don't think your "While Sleeping" series is gonna get you to Sakura's level... |
With Swimsuits (Tenko Chabashira) | |
---|---|
Ugh... Uuuuuuuuuugh! | |
Uh, Tenko... Don't tell me you've been here since this afternoon!? | |
Since... this afternoon? Tenko, what ever is the matter? | |
Sakura... Well, y'see... | |
I couldn't swim at all before. But thanks to Aoi, mistress of the sea, now I can. | |
Right? You've improved a lot, and you were saying how you wanted to swim this afternoon... | |
That was the plan! But when I'm standing here, I'm suddenly so conflicted! I believe in the teachings of Mistress! All I gotta do is take that first step. That's all! | |
Hmm. Fear of the unknown... That is what holds even a martial artist such as you back. | |
Urgh... How could a practitioner of Neo-Aikido be afraid of the ocean... | |
I'll never be able to look my master of dry land in the eye! I'll conquer you yet, ocean! | |
Then I'll go in with you. If you get scared, I'll be there to grab your hand! | |
Huh? Are you sure? | |
It's no biggie! You should've told me when I saw you this afternoon. | |
You're right... I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I didn't think I'd be this hesitant... | |
Well, let's get splashy! We'll stick to the short at first. You'll be fine! | |
I shall accompany you... My exercise today has been insufficient. | |
Aoi, Sakura... Thank you! Girls' hearts are as open as the sea! Thanks to you two, I was able to get my groove back! And now...t-to the sea! | |
Ooh la la, what a coincidence! Hachi machi, you ladies are a sight for sore eyes. Yowza! | |
Grr, a wild degenerate male appears! Begone, perv elemental, before I kick your ass! | |
Whoa, there! Don't get too close or these shorts are about to get a whole lot tighter, mon amie! | |
Oh, GROSS. Are you seriously... Ugh! Would you get lost already!? | |
SKREEEEEE! Prepare to be punished, slime! | |
Oh nooo! PLEASE don't punish meee! | |
Hold on. Girl chases boy at the beach... This is NOT a cliche I want any part of. | |
Oh, heeheehee! Tenkooo! Just try and catch me! | |
I will, and then I'll hold your head underwater! | |
W-Wait! You sounded awfully serious about that! | |
I shall follow them, up to a reasonable point. | |
Oh, great. I guess we're playing tag now. | |
Aaand Tenko's in the water. | |
Get back here! Gah, my feet are stuck in the water... | |
Huh? Water!? Ocean!? I'm...in the ocean as we speak!? | |
Well congratulations sugar! Could this be my doing? | |
N-Never! If anything, it's thanks to the noble hearts of girls who smite degenerate males! |
My Future...[]
My Future... (Akane Owari) | |
---|---|
OoooooooooooOOOOOOOH! Have a taste...of my full power! | |
Interesting. Then allow me to... | |
Haaaaaaaaah! | |
Stop there! We have a winner! | |
Akane! Are you okay!? You went flying pretty fast! | |
Owowow... Nah girl, this is nothin'. | |
Why'd you call the match, coach Nekomaru!? I was still in it! | |
I allowed you to go too far as it is--this is a sparring match, not a battle to the death. | |
I have to draw the line somewhere. | |
Who cares!? Not like we can die in here! | |
Stop! You know what he means! | |
B-Back off. Yeah, I know what he means. | |
Sorry, I take it back. I got a little hotheaded there. | |
I'm, uh...I'm sorry too. I shouldn't have shouted. | |
Grah, I can't deal with this shit! It makes me feel all tingly and weird! | |
I feel you. My cheeks are red as beets. | |
Akane, your fists have grown faster and harder, enough so to nearly pierce my defenses. | |
"Nearly"'s not good enough. It's all or nothing. | |
That simply means that I am growing alongside you. | |
The truth is, if I were ever to cease training, you would pass me in an instant. | |
I thank you for challenging me again and again over these past three years, Akane. | |
What's gotten into you today? | |
Many have abandoned the martial arts altogether after battling me, despite having room to grow. | |
It is their decision to make though, not mine. | |
The strongest is a solitary existence. The higher one climbs, the fewer that remain as equals. | |
Save for a few exceptions, such as yourself. | |
Stop, stop. I'm getting all tingly again. | |
What's wrong, Akane? You're not one to reject a compliment! Take it and be proud! | |
Or do you still have a long way to go to stand up to Sakura in sincerity? | |
Hell no! I won't be weak--not at anything! | |
I'm... I'm happy I could spar with you so many times over the last three years, Sakura. | |
But watch out--if you keep acting soft, you'll find your ass embedded in the ground. | |
Hah. I would like to see you try. | |
Bring it on! I'll get you next time! | |
I kinda envy them. They have a great rivalry! | |
Though it's easy to forget that Akane's the Ultimate Gymnast from how she acts. |
My Future... (Aoi Asahina) | |
---|---|
Ahh... Nothing beats ice cream and stargazing right after a bath! | |
I can't believe it's almost over. Time sure flies, huh? | |
I feared this camp may have been inadvisable with the numerous issues that plagued it at the onset. | |
But it seems as though we may make it to the end largely unharmed. | |
Right. Nothing's going to happen. It'll be fine. | |
Oh crap! I just realized something-- I don't think I did the assignments at all! | |
We were supposed to try new things and think about our talents. Did I do that!? | |
From my observations, I would say that you accomplished your tasks remarkably. | |
What? But all I did the whole time was swim and exercise. | |
That's not true. You tried to be a positive influence on others, and you attempted new things. | |
I don't really think I was much of an influence though. And by new things, do you mean sparring? | |
Your experience, which comes from outside martial arts, was greatly instructional to me and Akane. | |
Really? I'm so glad to hear it! I was afraid I was slowing you guys down by not knowing anything. | |
You have your own strengths. While you believe you did nothing extraordinary... | |
...your presence brings a positive energy to the people around you. It inspires them. | |
Okay now you're just *trying* to make me blush. But I know you mean every single word! | |
And the truth is...you inspire me too, Sakura. You make me want to push myself even harder. | |
Every time I see you training, I get the urge to start following right behind you! | |
I could not be prouder to hear you say that. | |
I hope we'll always be friends who keep pushing each other higher and higher. | |
And not just while we're in school. Forever! | |
Aye. I pledge myself unto you, that I will never fall short of your expectations. | |
Yeah, me too! You'd better watch the next Olympics. | |
I'll have a gold medal all for you, Sakura! | |
I eagerly await that day. |
My Future... (Genocide Jack) | |
---|---|
Mm-hmm, mm-hm-mm-hm-mm-hm, I see, I see, I see... | |
Well heck, you sure pulled the wool over my eyes! You were a freakin' boy this entire time! | |
Um...I'm sorry to deceive you. I talked to everyone in class about it earlier, but... | |
You weren't around at the time...so I figured I should talk to you about it. | |
With such high Nobility and Courage, your level is through the roof! Old me would've slaughtered you! | |
Eek... | |
But I've made vows of love with my White Knight. No matter the hotness, cheating is a no-no. | |
Y-Yeah, that's right... | |
*sigh* I figured it would play out like this, but I was still holding my breath the whole time. | |
A lifelong serial killer siding with love... Now that's relevant to my interests! | |
Hey, you! If you insist on usin' me as a spectacle, at least bring my White Knight! | |
I-I'm sorry. It wasn't my intention to say something so insensitive. | |
Eh, it's only natural to be worried about Cheesy! But damn, an Affection stat too? That's just OP! | |
I'm sorry, everyone... I really appreciate the concern. | |
So, Ogre Girl, you seem to be in demand these days like everyone's guardian deity. | |
You rip and tear those Monobeasts, keep a watchful eye on suspicious characters... | |
As one of the aforementioned it's not my place to say, but you've sure got a lot of work these days! | |
The very existence of my strength acts as a deterrent to conflict. It is one use of strength. | |
I feel kinda bad relying on Sakura all the time... but there's nobody more reliable than her. | |
Hey, you ain't gonna hear me arguin'! Even I don't wanna freak around and find out! | |
Indeed, I pray the day of our clash never comes. | |
What a twist! You're one of the strongest around! Don't tell me you're afraid of me! | |
Your strength is of a different nature than that of a martial artist. Honed not to fight, but kill. | |
A martial artist does not punch with the goal of killing. However, if we were to fight... | |
Kill or be killed, exactly! I've never received such a wonderful compliment! | |
More importantly, if we were to fight, it would only be after you abandon your vows with Byakuya. | |
I hope such a day never comes... | |
Are you actually supporting my love!? The shocking twists just won't stop comin'! | |
I'm sure *nobody* wants you to break your vows... Though I do feel sorry for Byakuya. | |
Whaddya mean, sorry for my White Knight!? I'm gonna do a makeover on your soft-serve head! | |
Even Genocide Jack is just another one of your classmates, it seems. | |
There are times when I can't really believe it myself, but... | |
All of her, including the more...animated parts, is our classmate, and that's just how it is. | |
I just got the validation I so craved, so I'ma crank things up a notch! Wait for me, Byakuya! | |
I...really do feel kind of bad for him. |
