A/N: Hello dear readers, thanks for clicking on the story. In case it wasn't clear from the description, this is meant to be the thoughts of Kokichi Oma throughout the killing game. I mainly just wanted to spread some love for the best boy, if he didn't have enough already. The format for this might be a bit weird, but it is meant to be journal or diary entries, so I hope you bear with me. I will also be splitting it up based on chapters, and will be trying to keep it as close to canon as I possibly can. That being said, there will of course be major spoilers for the entire game. You've been warned.

Oh, and if it wasn't obvious I own nothing related to Danganronpa. But without further ado, please enjoy.

Ramblings of a Liar

-Entry #1-

Dear Diary,

I'll be honest: this is the first time I'm doing something like this. I think it was one of those whims that you get once in a while, or maybe it's just me? Whatever. The point is that my brain is thinking at about a mile a minute and I need some way to calm down. At the time of starting this I have no idea what I'm doing, both writing this and in real life. But hey, maybe this will be more of a success than I thought it might be. Who knows, I might even publish it after I get out of this hell hole.

But I digress, you must not even know what I'm talking about at all. And that makes sense, you're only paper after all. No sense of surroundings, only learning as things get imprinted on you, not even sure it'll stick around… I just slapped myself, sorry. I keep getting off track and I can't help it. Okay, let's start with my name. I am Kokichi Oma, designated as the Ultimate Supreme Leader. If you're confused by that title, it's something that was assigned to me by the Ultimate Initiative, a government program that recognized my leadership skills as the head of an organization called D.I.C.E. We're more of a fun-loving group than anything else, but that's hardly the point.

The point being that I have recently found myself trapped in a sort of weird school, along with 15 other Ultimate students. Oh, and there are these adorable looking mechanical bears around with adorable looking deadly robots keeping us hostage, always a blast. The robots gave us pretty simple instructions, we can't leave this place unless we kill someone without getting caught. Through all the shocked reactions and adorable laughter filling the air, I couldn't help but be speechless. Although, looking back those demands of theirs were oddly specific. I mean, what's the purpose for starting a killing game? A master plan? For fun? Or was there not even a purpose, and it was just to create mindless violence? I'm not really sure, we only just got here so I don't have enough information. Or maybe I do, and I just haven't connected all the right pieces yet. I don't mean to brag but I'm pretty intelligent when I need to be, so I'm sure everything will come to place at some point. I'll just take my time and figure things out.

Anyway, I haven't even really began our adventure yet, sorry. I suppose I should start by introducing someone else besides me, like the rising star Kaede Akamatsu. She's another one of the captives here, the Ultimate Pianist. At the same time that everyone was stunned after the killing game began, she was the only one willing to make a move. Granted, her words were vague and not very helpful, but it did get everyone moving. I wouldn't have a problem with that, but that moment seemed to go to her head, and then she tried to act like she was our leader or something. Look, I don't have anything against her personally, but there is no way I can just trust these people with my life here. I mean, sure, I doubt anyone is thinking of killing right from the beginning anyway, but she needed to get it through her thick head that trust won't come easy. I may have started the distrust within the group, but if all it takes is a few words from me to collapse everything, then it wasn't the trust was never really there to begin with. I'm not going to apologize for my actions, and frankly it would be out of character for me to do so anyway. Creating an image for myself within this group as the antagonist might make me a bit unfavorable, but its better that than being dead. If things go well for us and we get out, great, my fears were unwarranted. If not, however, I'll be prepared. I'm not going to lose this game of ours, not by a long shot.

Okay, I think I've calmed down enough now. It's getting late, so I think I'll call it a night pretty soon. Not sure if I'll keep up with this whole "dear diary" thing, but hey, it seemed to work well this time. I'll come back to you when something new happens. Until then.

Dear Diary,

I'm back, but you'll have to excuse any rude behavior of mine since I'm in a bad mood. Everything about this place was bad to begin with, but now shit's hitting the fan, and it's going to spray all over everyone. You remember those bears I mentioned before, right? Well now it seems they're willing to push us to the extremes to make us kill someone. Not only does the culprit get to go scot free, but if no one dies within a day we all die anyway.

Don't know how exactly they plan on killing us all, but that isn't really the issue here. What really matters is why they're pushing for a murder to much. I mean, they clearly must be capable of killing us themselves, so why force us to do it? The only thing I can think of is that rule the bear gave us that forbids his interference unless necessary. But he gave that rule to us himself, and why would he do something that clearly limits his options? I still don't have enough to go off of, but I can make plenty of guesses.

Still though, now that I think about it, that isn't the most pressing issue that yours truly has to deal with. No, I think that goes to all the other schmucks that I have to worry about. Now I don't think anyone will be able to kill me, especially if I stay low until things die down, but I doubt there isn't at least one person thinking of killing. And if one person does it, something tells me its going to spiral into something uncontrollable real quick.

Only problem is, I don't know how the hell I can fix things, and I've been brainstorming all day. Sure, we have a lot of muscle with us, but we have no guarantee that we'll be able to take on the deadly robots, or if there are any unknown threats to face. What's worse, there could easily be some kind of mole within the group to cause chaos and overall confusion. Granted, that's pretty much the exact thing I'm doing, but I'm doing it for a good cause. These people keep trying to blindly trust each other, but without any real plans everyone is just going to get frustrated and attack each other anyway. It's practically a ticking time bomb, and I want nothing to do with it when it blows.

Oh, I just realized I never told you about everyone else. I mean, sure, I mentioned Kaede (who I'll have you know has not changed all that much since my first assessment), but there are plenty of other weirdos on campus. Let's see, if I'm being honest most of them are just feel like background characters right now, but a couple stick out to me. There's Gonta, this huge behemoth who I'm convinced could break every bone in my body if he flicked me hard enough. But, he's super dumb and easy enough to trick that I should be able to get him on my side fairly easily. Then there's this robot- no not the deadly ones- named K1-B0 that is more fun to mess with than he is actually useful. Surprising for a robot, I know. Shuichi, the quiet detective who seems to always be by Kaede's side. Honestly the guy seems like a wimp, but I'm keeping my eye on him in case he gets suspicious (never trust a detective!). Oh, how could I forget Kaito! He seems like the kind of guy who always wants to say something, but is more bark than bite. I'm not too worried about him, except that he's bringing the rest of us down to his level just by having to associate with him. There's a few others here and there, but honestly they have contributed almost nothing important so it isn't worth even mentioning them.

Now, back to what I was actually trying to talk about… Oh right, the fact that no one is willing to do anything. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't want to kill anyone either, but if we keep waiting around eventually we're going to die anyway. And I know I'm repeating myself here, but I refuse to just die in a place as shitty as thing. I mean, there isn't even anything fun to do to pass the time! Sure there's a game room, but there's jack there that could be considered interesting. Whatever.

Sorry about all this, honestly I just wanted to vent a bit, but I don't really know what to do right now. It feels like my only option is to wait for someone else to inevitably kill, but that also seems like the worst possible outcome. It's giving that stupid bear exactly what he wants, but at this point I'm more concerned with surviving two more days than I am with his long-term plan. If I'm still alive within a few days, I'll let you know, cool?

Dear Diary,

Welp, don't say I didn't call it. As I thought, someone died. I didn't tell you about him, but he was this mysterious guy named Rantaro that didn't even know his own talent (or so he claimed). At this point, I doubt he's important, but I'm more concerned with how he died. See, the person who killed him decided to not take advantage of the scot-free perk, and tried to use a class trial to smoke out a mastermind. In the end, the plan failed, and it was revealed that Kaede was the culprit all along. Shocker, I know, but if anyone was going to do it, it kinda felt like it would be her. I mean, she seemed so determined to get everyone out, how could she not try and take that outlet?

Seems like she left everything up to that Shuichi guy now, so he might become more prominent. I first thought he might've been the killer, but apparently, he's just quiet and incompetent. Well okay, saying he's a failure might be a bit much, since he did actually solve the case in the end. Plus, when he actually got into the groove of the trial he seemed to be kinda cool, but I digress. In any case, I'll definitely be keeping my eyes out for that guy, in case he turns out to be more than a huge dork.

…Okay, can I be real for a quick sec? I'm still a bit shaken up after tonight. I didn't tell you this yet, but after it was revealed that Kaede was the killer, Monokuma executed her too. It was pretty brutal, and I think it was the first time I've ever seen someone die in front of me before. And now that it's started, I get the sinking feeling that the game's going to go a lot faster now. Most likely we won't need a time limit incentive again. I give us a week, tops, before another death.

Only problem is, I still haven't figured out how to stop it yet. Oh, didn't I mention? I'm going to stop this, somehow. Kaede might have given her will to Shuichi, but that doesn't mean I can't use it myself, right? It's going to take a lot of thinking and preparation, but I'm in this for the long haul, baby. Don't expect the great Supreme Leader Kokichi Oma to be out of the count without getting the last laugh!

Now, before I forget, I want to also put down my unease about that whole trial. Yeah I know it was on an emotional level, but there's more to it than that. I can't quiet put my finger on it, but something feels… off about that the whole. Like, it went to smoothly for something that was supposed to catch the mastermind, but failed anyway, y'know? That's the best way I can put it on paper, at least. What I do think is that it wouldn't be wrong to assume that there still might be someone pulling the strings from behind the scenes. I don't have any proof or anything like that, though. It's just food for thought or something like that.

Anyway, I think I'm done for the night. There's probably a brand-new storm coming our way, and I need to be mentally prepared for it this time. Until then,
