This is chapter six of the collection of chapters revolving around the theme of horror stuff. Things that people will find scary in real life. In this chapter, it's serial killer masterminds. Also, I haven't played Security Breach yet, so some data might not be accurate, or be displayed.
Disclaimer: I don't own Danganronpa or Five Nights at Freddy's. Danganronpa is owned by Kazutaka Kodaka and Spike Chunsoft. Five Nights at Freddy's is owned by Scott Cawthon and Scottgames.
Azure: Another serial killer matchup. But a little different from Yandere vs Neighbor. Both are masterminds of a series of killing children and adults alike. Both created robotic mascots who they disguise themselves as in order to perform more killings. Both have infiltrated locations where children were supposed to be safe, only for them to turn into a place with a history of killing. Both manage to get away with killing many people before eventually meeting their end and being killed. Only to later return as an AI trying to take over the bodies of other people in a VR world in order to return to the real world. Both have also become a meme due to how many times they manage to come back, whether it be through being thought to be dead when they were not, coming back as an AI after being killed for real, and then having fake versions of themselves after the AI.
-Line Break-
Bryant: Serial killers are by far one of the most disgusting, despicable people in real life, with no consideration or care about others. Unfortunately, there have been many of them.
Thea: Luckily for us, none of them are as smart as these two. And they actually stay dead.
Bryant: Junko Enoshima, the Ultimate Despair.
Thea: And William Afton, the Purple Guy.
Bryant: I'm Bryant Reese.
Thea: And I'm Thea Price.
Bryant: And we're here to analyze these two fighters and find out who would win, a WI Battle!
-Line Break-
Bryant: Hope's Peak Academy. A school where students want to go as it is one of the best schools in the world.
Thea: So they went, and some of them died. Great place.
Bryant: Right… Hope's Peak Academy was a place where people cultivated Talent in order to spread Hope throughout the world. But where there's light, there's darkness.
Thea: And that darkness would be swallowed up with class 77, the Ultimate Despairs. Once a class meant to inspire hope and who were pretty good friends, they became some of the world's worst criminals. But why? Why did they throw away everything for despair?
Bryant: The fault wasn't theirs, but rather the fault of the true Ultimate Despair. Junko Enoshima.
Junko Enoshima:
-Alias: Ryoko Otonashi, Ultimate Despair
-Age: Unknown
-Height: 169 cm
-Weight: 99 lbs
-Likes: Despair
-Dislikes: Hope
Bryant: Junko was born into poverty with her twin sister. Struggling through life, Junko couldn't help but think that she was never meant to be born into her world.
Thea: It didn't help that Junko had unmatched analytical abilities. So, everything was boring to her. In a world where you're poor and bored, ya gotta find something to make things better. Something to distract yourself. She needed something. Anything!
Bryant: Junko became a harbinger of Despair who would kill anyone and everyone for the sake of fulfilling her fetish of feeling Despair.
Thea: Okay maybe not anything.
Bryant: Junko came to realize that the feeling of Despair is so powerful, it completely overwhelmed the boredom she felt about the rest of her life. She viewed it as something that not even she could predict. As such, she set out to fill the world with Despair. And with her twin sister, a soldier so skilled that she doesn't even have a scar despite being trained from when she was a child, she became a true threat.
Abilities/Arsenal:
-Talent: Ultimate Analyst
-Can sense Talent, Hope, and Despair
-Grenades
-Baseball Bat
-Ice Pick
-Knife
-Monokuma's Gloomy Sunday
Thea: We already talked about how she was good at analyzing, but we mean she's really good. So good that she was able to make an entire plan where she would erase her memory, have her sis pretend to be her while she became someone named Ryoko Otonashi, and then have her memory come back right when she wanted to! How?!
Bryant: Junko is certainly capable of holding her own, but her true strength stems from her Talent. As the Ultimate Analyst, Junko can recognize, absorb, and process just about any form of data. This allows her to make, review, and apply certain plans and motions.
Thea: Once she's got all that, she can put out her plan of attack, usually with a small weapon like an ice pick, or a knife. Sure they don't seem like much at first, but when you're against someone can literally predict everything you can do as if she saw you do it, well…
Bryant: But simply killing people won't spread Despair through the world. So instead, Junko came up with a simple 7-step plan.
Thea: Step 1; become a student with your super soldier twin sister while donning the titles of Ultimate Fashionista and Soldier. Step 2; find out about the secret project about cultivating Hope. Step 3; get a special hypnosis video meant to invoke despair. Step 4; have the Student Council kill each other to start a riot in the Reserve Course while using the video to cause over a thousand suicides. Step 5; brainwash Class 77 to be Ultimate Despairs too. Step 6; sink S.S. Hinanami, and laugh at the heartbreak. Step 7; Profit.
Bryant: Said profit would be the Biggest, Most Awful, Most Tragic Event in Human History, shortened to be the Tragedy.
Thea: Basically a world-wide purge with no time limit.
Bryant: Meanwhile, Junko and her class, Class 78, were locked into Hope's Peak as they made it into a bunker. This was in hopes of ensuring that the Hope of humanity would continue living on through them.
Thea: So Junko killed the principal living with them, erased the memories of her classmates, and had them go through a little something called the Killing Game. Basically, if they want to leave, they have to kill someone and then get away with it.
Bryant: She did this behind the guise of a robotic mascot. Monokuma.
Monokuma:
-Arm Cannon
-Superhuman abilities
-Bomb Inside
-Alternate Forms:
=Ball
=Beast
=Bomber
=Guard
=Junk
=Siren
=Destroyer
Thea: Junko had a couple of kid followers named the Warriors of Hope, ironically, that were led by a little girl named Monaca. She manipulated the company she belonged to called the Towa Group, and created a bunch of robots she called Monokuma. There's a bunch of different Monokuma, but the base one, the one that she uses the most, has the basic gear of sharp claws, superhuman abilities, and a bomb inside them just waiting to explode and kill ya.
Bryant: There's also many back-ups in case the bomb goes off. There's certainly a good amount of them, and it's implied that there are hundreds of them. There's also other versions of Monokuma, such as the Ball Monokuma, which can crush you by rolling over you. The Beast Monokuma uses sharp claws and fangs, Bombers throw bombs, Destroyers fly around with a flamethrower and jetpack, Guards have shields, etc.
Thea: She used this mascot to force her former friends into a killing game. But then she got cocky, and attacked Monokuma himself! So he called forth the Spears of Gungnir, and impaled her!
Bryant: Foolishly murdered from her own hubris, in her own game, by her own design, Junko fell, dead. Leaving the Killing Game behind.
Thea: OR DID SHE?!
Bryant: Right, it turns out that Junko had actually hidden herself away in a secret lab, while Mukuro took on Junko's disguise. The plan was for Junko to simply make an example of Mukuro to make sure the rest of the students stayed in line, but she chose to kill her instead. All for the sake of her Despair.
Thea: Man, this girl will do anything for Despair. And she did a lot.
Achievements:
-Turned a head 180 degrees
-Can move at superhuman speeds
-Can defeat the Former Ultimate Boxer
-Caused the Tragedy
-Analytical abilities can be mistaken for precognition
-Likely scales to certain other Ultimates
-Survived most of the Ultimate Punishment
Bryant: Junko is at her best when manipulating the scene from behind the shadows, but she's not powerless by herself.
Thea: We're talking about a girl who can turn your head 180 degrees. As in, you look forward, and the next thing you know, you're looking at your butt. She can also move fast enough to have her hands be a blur. She's even been stated to be capable of beating Juzo Sakakura, who was the Former Ultimate Boxer.
Bryant: Keep in mind that the title Ultimate has often been given to characters who can break world-records. If this was in real life, this implies that Juzo is superior to the likes of Mike Tyson, who can punch with the force of 16 hundred joules of energy, and Muhammad Ali, who can punch 12 times in less than 3 seconds.
Thea: But this isn't real life. This is Danganronpa. And in this world, our first Danganronpa combatant, Genocide Jack, was calculated by us to have an attack speed of over 800 miles per hour.
Bryant: And she can likely survive the bombs inside Monokuma, which Genocide Jack also survived. Considering that these bombs were designed to kill regular humans, it's likely that the energy emitted is similar to that of grenades, or around 276 thousand joules of energy.
Thea: Which is around 28 tons of force. Which is like if over 170 Mike Tysons punched you in the face at once. You'd think that someone like her would never lose. But you'd be wrong.
Weaknesses:
-Not as deadly as with Monokumas
-Desire for Despair has caused her defeat and death
-Not as physically strong as others in her world
-Is a stickler for rules
Thea: The whole point of the Killing Game that she forced her classmates into was to spread Despair through the rest of the world that hasn't fallen to said emotion just yet. So she insisted on making rules for the game. But she was also bound to the rules, which let them turn the tables on her. Even when the protagonist, Makoto Naegi, talk-no-jutsu'd the survivors of the game into going against her, she just, gave up. And since she wanted to experience Despair as much as she wanted to spread it, she decided to kill herself. Sure, why not?
Bryant: And so, defeated, Junko initiated the Ultimate Punishment, executing herself. She endured hundreds of high-speed baseballs, an electric cage which spins people fast enough to turn them into butter, a fire truck crushing her, a rocket which rends your flesh from your bones, before being crushed under a massive hydraulic press. Her reign of terror and Despair, finally ended.
Thea: OR DID IT?!
Bryant: Yeah… turns out that while Junko herself died, her ambitions and goals lived on through her followers, and they became known as the Remnants of Despair. Specifically Class 77, led by Izuru Kamukura. They continued to spread Despair through the world until they were tracked down and taken in by Makoto. He put them through the Neo World Program, to literally reprogram their minds. Restoring their sanity and ambition for hope. Meanwhile, Makoto's sister Komaru would battle against Junko's apprentice, Monaca Towa, and would put an end to her scheme as well. With the help of the two Naegis, it truly spelled the end of the Ultimate Despair.
Thea: OR DID IT?!
Junko A.I.:
-Is a mirror match of Junko's mind
-Can manipulate the environment she's in
-Is only limited to the rules she's placed under
Bryant: Yeah… turns out that Izuru Kamukura had hacked the Neo World Program beforehand and placed into it a special virus to make things more interesting. This was the Junko A.I., a version of a previous A.I. known as Alter Ego. The original A.I. was designed to be indistinguishable from a real human with the ability to think and adapt like a real human, even developing its own will and emotions.
Thea: The Junko A.I. was able to take over the Neo World Program, reprogramming it to fit her own desires. The only reason why she was really limited at all was because she decided to implement herself into the game as the teacher character, who had to follow the rules of the game. But she was still able to manipulate the game into the Killing School Trip. Man, this girl is just insane.
Bryant: You think that's crazy? The Junko A.I. did this in order to obtain as many dead bodies as she can in order to download her mind into them, taking them over and continuing to do that same with literally the entire world in order to make Junkoland.
Thea: Oh dang.
Bryant: Fortunately, there was another A.I. within the Neo World Program. Another version of the original Alter Ego known as the Chiaki A.I.. This A.I. was able to help one of the students trapped, Hajime.
Thea: Protagonist powers activated, and Hajime went Super Saiyan Blanco with bootleg Sharingans to use Talk-no-Jutsu and deleted the Junko A.I. with the power of friendship.
Bryant: With the Junko A.I. gone and the Remnants of Despair finally defeated, Junko's reign of Despair had finally ended. Once, and for all.
Thea: Or did it. *looking at nails*
Bryant: Yes… Turns out that in a certain universe, there were over fifty Junkos, each hosting their own Killing Game with their own class with Monokuma as their mascot.
Thea: Cause turns out, the entire series of Danganronpa was fake in-game, made by Team Danganronpa. Each killing game was like one Season, and there was a Junko for each one.
Bryant: Well, it's only a theory, but I think that this is actually an alternate universe. It was implied that every season of Danganronpa contained a killing game that operated the same way, as they all had sixteen volunteers. But that wouldn't explain the existence of Ultra Despair Girls, or the canon anime, which had different kinds of plots and antagonists with different amounts of students. And if this is true, it could explain the different 4koma series they had, and even the differences between the games and the anime.
Thea: Bryant's fan-theories and geekiness aside, we can agree that no matter what, Junko is always gonna find a way to come back to continue the everlasting battle of Hope and Despair. Always.
(Junko Enoshima) Let's give it everything we got! It's punishment time!
-Line Break-
Bryant: Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. A place where kids want to go as it is one of the best pizzerias in the world when it comes to fun.
Thea: So they went, and some of them died. Great place.
Bryant: Right… This pizzeria was a place where kids could go to be entertained by the animatronic Freddy Fazbear and his fellow animatronics. But where there's light, there's darkness. Wait a minute.
Thea: So long story short, Freddy Fazbear's Pizza was a regular ol' pizzeria, until someone dressed up as one of the mascots and lured five kids to the backroom, killed 'em, and then stuffed them into the suits of the animatronics there, causing the place to shut down. Then a second place opened up. Five kids disappeared. Etc. Man, someone is trying pretty hard to shut this place down.
Bryant: Ironically, considering that the culprit was someone who helped make the franchise what it is. William Afton.
William Afton:
-Alias: Dave Miller, Purple Man
-Age: Unknown
-Height: Unknown
-Weight: Unknown
-Likes: Killing, Animatronics
-Dislikes: Fire, Animatronics
Thea: I am not looking forward to this.
Bryant: Looking forward to what?
Thea: This analysis thing. The lore of Five Nights at Freddy's is so f*cking confusing, and we gotta go over it.
Bryant: Fortunately, we don't have to go over everything, just what we know to be true about William himself.
Thea: What we know is that Willie A. here is the founder of Aften Robotics and co-founded Fazbear Entertainment alongside his friend Henry Emi- Emily. Henry Emily. Really?
Bryant: Despite the two being partners and friends, William ended up killing Charlotte, Henry's daughter, outside of their first restaurant, Fredbear's Family Diner, in the year 1983. However, he would soon come to understand how it feels to lose a child in the form of his youngest son, killed in an accident caused by his older son named Michael Afton.
Thea: I'd say poor guy, but Will doesn't really deserve any sympathy. Especially since he decides to kill five kids in a costume. A golden robotic bunny costume called Spring Bonnie. And then he stuffed them into the animatronics, because why not? Why wouldn't you stuff helpless kids into the robots that you're trying to use to make money. But plot twist! In this world, ghoooosts exist! Because once again. Why not?
Bryant: William's first victim, Charlie, possessed a security animatronic that would soon become known as the Puppet. The Puppet took the souls of the five murdered children and put them into the five different animatronics: Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Foxie, and Golden Freddy.
Thea: When Willie figured out that these five were possessed, he became obsessed. He figured that if he could figure out a way to harness Remnant, the substance he found in possessed robots, he could become immortal. Because why not?
Bryant: This caused him to eventually confront and disassemble the five animatronics at the original Freddy Fabear's Pizza, which had been closed down and abandoned after the murders. However, in doing so, he unleashed the five spirits of the children inside.
Thea: The kids swarmed William, trying to get their revenge. They chased him into the safe room where his old Spring Bonnie Suit was waiting for him. To hide from the ghosts, he jumped into the suit, thus hiding him from the view of the ghosts. But plot twist again!
Bryant: See, the Spring Bonnie suits aren't just suits. They're spring-lock suits, specially designed to be both animatronics and suits. By using the spring-locks inside, the endoskeleton can be removed, turning the animatronic into a suit. However, should these spring-locks get wet, they snap shut onto whoever is inside.
Thea: Think of it as a bear-trap that covers your entire body. Yeah, it's like that. The different parts of the suits, wires, gears, etc, collapsed onto William, impaling him all over. But, this, kinda, made things worse.
Bryant: Whether it'd be the result of Remnant experiments he's been conducting using other animatronics, one of which killed his daughter, or sheer stubbornness, William survived bleeding out, trapped in the storage room for years, until he was discovered inside of the suit. The people who found him were looking for an animatronic for their horror-themed parody of the mysterious murders. And so they reused the Spring Bonnie suit, unaware of the man inside.
Thea: So William became the unkillable murder machine known as Springtrap. Good jobs dinguses. Dingi?
Springtrap:
-Made from the springtrap suit of a Golden Bonnie
-Powered by Remnant
-Sound Illusion Disks
-Commands Twisted Animatronics
-Strong jaws and claws
Bryant: As Springtrap, Will is just as, if not even more dangerous than how he was before. He can attack with a pair of claws that lets him slash his opponents, or crush a person's skull with his strong jaw.
Thea: He's basically an animatronic with a human filling instead of a robotic one, so we can probably scale him to other animatronics. Another spring-lock suit called the Golden Freddy suit was able to kill Will's son with just a bite in animatronic mode.
Bryant: Concerning, since in order to crush a person's skull and damage their brain, the animatronic would've had to bite down with a minimum of 13 megapascals of force.
Thea: That's like if 13 people all bit on your head at the same time.
Bryant: However, considering the surface area of the animatronic's teeth, it's far more likely that the animatronic crushed the child's head with almost 15 thousand Newtons of force. That's almost as strong as a Great White Shark.
Thea: If you want to know how we got to that, go to MatPat's video called FNAF, We were WRONG about the Bite.
Bryant: Other animatronics have bitten other people, and many attacking cutscenes in the games show them going for the head-
Thea: Take notes Thor.
Bryant: -further supporting this.
Thea: If that wasn't enough, Springtrap is kinda hard to kill. That's thanks to Remnant.
Bryant: We mentioned Remnant before, but we should go a bit more in depth to it. Remnant is a substance which resulted when William melted down the different animatronics into a molten metal. Given this, it's likely he accidentally created raw Remnant by possessing the Springtrap suit when he died. Meaning that he isn't still alive, but is instead a soul controlling a suit, which held his withering corpse inside.
Thea: Pleasant. And if you think one crazy murder robot freak is crazy, he's got several more called the Twisted Animatronics. These freaky things are like, half robotic, half organic animatronic zombies with monster teeth.
Bryant: What's more, he has one more trick up his, uh, decomposing arms.
Thea: Sound Illusion Disks. Special disks which can use special frequencies to control your senses. Cause, why not?
Bryant: Using these disks, William can cause people to hallucinate, feel nauseous, and alter the appearance of animatronics. In fact, another animatronic, Baby, was able to use a combination of SIDs with special pins to appear as a woman despite her original form being a blocky robotic clown meant to trap kids inside.
Thea: One who's apparently really sexually attractive. The lore is really, really weird.
Bryant: Springtrap is an extremely deadly monster.
Achievements:
-Outran Foxy
-Tore apart animatronics as William
-Comparable to other animatronics
-Survived being burned
-Survived spring-lock failure
-Got away with killing numerous children
-Skilled inventor
Bryant: Even when he was just a human, William was able to sneak up on and destroy several animatronics, dismantling and harvesting them for his research on Remnant. He was also able to keep pace with and outrun Foxy, who can run around 13 meters per second. That's faster than even Usain Bolt, the fastest runner in the world.
Thea: As Springtrap, we already said that he can keep up with other animatronics, who are strong enough to toss around arcade machines like ragdolls and rip people to shreds. His own Twisted Animatronics can tank being shot. Let's see them tank this laser Bryant made me last week.
Bryant: Springtrap isn't impossible to kill. He can be killed by burning him thoroughly with the help of fire, which can destroy the Remnant inside of him, separating his soul. However, it's not guaranteed, as he has survived being burned before.
Thea: But like we said, he's not impossible to kill
Weaknesses:
-Was killed by being trapped in a burning building
-Is easily tricked
-Suit is old
Bryant: One thing to note about Springtrap is that it can be misdirected via special audio files which use the sound of children to lure him away.
Thea: Pedo.
Bryant: This implies that Springtrap, being the zombified version of William, lacks the same mental capacity of the serial killer. Which makes sense, as the body of William has obviously been decaying over the years. The same must have happened to his brain.
Thea: Not to mention that the suit is kinda old. He can keep up with the animatronics, but he's not going to be able to overpower them without a pretty big fight. Not to mention that he literally died.
Bryant: Died after being trapped in a locked facility with several other animatronics with and by his old friend Henry, who burned all the Remnant out of their bodies, freeing the lost souls of the other animatronics, while allowing William's to be dragged down into hell. Finally putting an end to this sad story.
Thea: *playing FNAF 1* Or did it. *Jumpscare* GAH!
Bryant: Right. Turns out, William had an A.I. copy of himself.
Glitchtrap:
-Can manipulate the digital world
-Survived his code being cut up
-Exists as long as his code exists
Thea: What's up with everyone making an A.I. version of themselves?
Bryant: A.I.s are pretty useful. If you leave a copy of yourself behind, they can continue your work, much like Glitchtrap. Ensuring that you would still achieve a victory.
Thea: Wait, but you'll still be dead.
Bryant: A victory in the long term.
Thea: Still dead.
Bryant: Glitchtrap is as dangerous as Springtrap, but in a different way. Glitchtrap is capable of swapping his consciousness with anyone he wants, allowing him to trap them and take over their bodies.
Thea: Like some crazy Freaky Friday.
Bryant: While Glitchtrap is capable of manipulating the digital world in many ways, he can still be manipulated himself. He's been separated into different files, but was able to reform.
Thea: Remember when this game was about malfunctioning robots? Now we got ghost metal, ghosts, and A.I.s. Not to mention sound disks, family problems, purple zombies, robot zombies, robophilia, and time travel. It's a crazy mess. Yet one that manages to succeed despite all odds.
Bryant: An accurate description, which could be applied to William himself. Intelligent, powerful, and manipulative, yet he almost always succeeded thanks to his sheer stubbornness
Thea: No matter what, William Afton's insanity is never gonna stop, especially when it comes to killing people. He'll always come back. He'll always create bodies. He'll always keep trying. But hey. That's just a theory! A GAME- OW!
Bryant: We don't need to rip off yet another series.
(Springtrap) I always come back!
-Line Break-
Bryant: Alright, the stage is set, time to start this dance.
Thea: Battle ready, set, GO!
-Line Break-
When visiting someone else's house, one would usually be a bit respectful. Just a natural show of manners. But some don't follow nature.
"Hello!" Junko sang as she kicked down an old rusty gate, causing it to slam into the ground and send up a small cloud of dust. She walked down the path up to an old, abandoned house. She hummed loudly as she reached the porch but paused. There was a weird robot thing sitting on the outside, slumped over. It looked like some ugly, rabbit furry.
"Eulgh. It smells." Junko grinned at the robot before kicking it with her heeled shoe. It leaned over to the side, motionless. Junko pushed open the old door and began exploring the house.
"Hello! Anyone alive here?" she called. She walked around the house and came across a room. She flung it open and peered inside. Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw what was inside. There was a single table, and there was someone sitting at the table, slumped over. There was a puddle of blood surrounding the decomposing man's head.
"Oh… He's dead." Junko realized. She looked at this before throwing her head back and laughing loudly.
"Oh, how Despairful!" she giggled. Her cackles echoed through the house, and reached outside. Outside, the laughs reached the robotic figure, and it began twitching. As the laughs continued and grew louder, the animatronic continued to twitch violently.
"Heh. I guess the right thing to do is to take the body and bury it in a shallow grave." Junko said cheerfully as she dragged the corpse outside. She paused, and just threw it to the side.
"Nah!" she laughed as she kicked the body. She turned around giggling, but paused. She turned back, and looked at the spot where the animatronic was before. Was.
"GRAAHH!" Springtrap roared as he burst through the wall, claws and teeth lashing out towards her. Junko quickly ducked under the animatronic's lunge and ran to the side. Springtrap got up and snarled as he stood, slightly slumped over.
"Oh?" Junko blinked as she crossed her arms. Springtrap threw its head back and roared. Cracks in the ground appeared as the dirt began to shift, and a large hand burst out. One by one, the four Twisted Animatronics crawled out of their buried graves, snarling.
"A group of zombie robots?" Junko observed. She giggled loudly, causing the animatronics to twitch. She took out a remote and pressed a red button. Suddenly, twenty white and black bears hopped over the garden wall and waddled up to Junko. The Monokumas form a line in front of their controllers and each let out their robotic laughs.
"How fun! I'll show you Despair!" Junko declared.
The Devil is waiting!
Fight!
The two robotic groups charged at each other and immediately began slashing at each other with their claws. One of the Twisted Animatronics, a monstrous fox with a hook, immediately stabbed one of the Monokumas and ripped out a chunk of its head. Another Monokuma jumped on the fox's back and sank its teeth into the robotic zombie. The fox reached to its back and used its hook to rip the bear off and smash it against the one in front. It dashed forwards and slammed its hook into the head of another Monokuma before slamming it into a fourth one.
Another animatronic, this one a purple zombie rabbit, slashed and crunched down on different Monokumas, turning them into scrap metal. It roared into the sky before more Monokumas jumped onto it and began digging into it with their claws and teeth. It thrashed and roared as it tossed the Monokumas around, but they kept slamming into it, eventually knocking it onto its back. The Monokumas swarmed the larger robot as it roared again. Scraps of metal and even one of the robot's arms went flying before the bunny tossed the bears off. It roared as it got up and lunged for the robotic bears, hungry for revenge.
"Ooh! I just love a good robot fight! Not. How boring." Junko yawned as she looked at her nails, examining them. "Hm. Just as I thought. These are still just fake nails."
"URAAAH!" A wolf animatronic lunged and tore through some Monokumas before suddenly jumping back to avoid a sudden stream of fire. Destroyer Monokumas suddenly appeared, floating through the air. The wolf jumped up and slashed through one of the Monokuma's jetpacks, causing it to swerve out of control. The wolf animatronic roared as it grabbed a rock and hurled it at one of the Destroyer Monokumas, sending it into the ground. Its flamethrower went off and lit the yard on fire. Junko looked up as the flames spread around and surrounded her.
"Hm. I did feel a little chilly." she grunted. She glanced to the side and ducked, avoiding a slash. Springtrap roared as it tried to bite Junko but just missed. Junko took out an ice pick and smirked at the animatronic. Springtrap lunged again with claws extended and jaws open. Junko dodged around and stabbed the pick into his back, causing him to roar. She shoved the animatronic down and jumped back as Springtrap lashed out backwards. She continued to dodge back as Springtrap lunged and missed her, falling flat on the ground. She looked at the corpse on the porch and grinned.
"Grrrrr…" Springtrap growled as he got up. The corpse suddenly flew towards and slammed into him, nearly knocking him over. Springtrap looked down and growled at the decaying corpse of Henry Emily. Suddenly, he was blindsided and rolled over by a Ball Monokuma. More Ball Monokumas rolled up and got ready to battle, but the fox and wolf animatronics ambushed them. Springtrap got up and growled as Beast Monokumas bounded up. The bunny animatronic appeared with a giant bear animatronic, and the three animatronics jumped into battle. The robots rolled around as they gnashed their teeths and tore at each other with claws. Junko watched this when suddenly Springtrap jumped out of the bundle of robots and began slashing at Junko. The Ultimate Despair simply dodged the slashes as she picked up a metal rod and bashed it across Springtrap's face, forcing him to stagger back.
"Is this all?" she yawned. Springtrap roared as he lunged towards Junko, but slammed into a riot shield as a Shield Monokuma appeared and caught him. The animatronic grabbed the shield and ripped it from the Monokuma's grip before jamming it through its jaws, tearing through the bear and decapitating it.
He looked around, growling as he searched for Junko. A burst of pain suddenly caused him to roar as a sharp rod of metal jammed into his spine. Junko used the rod to force the animatronic down before yanking it out. Springtrap rolled over onto his back and roared again as Junko impaled him again, this time through the chest.
"Hmph. I thought that this would be interesting, but when you get used to the zombie aesthetic, you guys get boring." she complained. She grabbed the animatronic by the head, but gasped as a wave of nausea overcame her. She staggered back as Springtrap rose up, ripping the metal rod out of him. Or so it seemed. Junko gasped as Springtrap seemed to shift and transform. A high pitched sound she didn't notice was filling her ears suddenly stopped, and Springtrap was revealed to be the zombified bear animatronic!
"Wha-?!" Junko gasped before the bear animatronic grabbed her. "What is this?!"
"GRAAAH!" Springtrap roared as he lunged and seized Junko by the face, his claws digging into her face, making her yelp in pain. Springtrap opened his jaws wide, and Junko caught sight of what was inside. Inside of its mouth, there was a face. A rotten, withered face stared back at her with wide bloodshot eyes and a gaping mouth. The sight sent a new feeling through her mind. Sheer, unbridled, fear. This was all she could process before Springtrap clamped down on her head. There was a shrill scream that was cut off by a sickening crunch and a wet splatter.
Springtrap moved back with blood dripping down his jaws. Junko slumped over, a large chunk of her skull, face, and brain missing. The only signs she was alive were her rattling breaths and heaving chest as the Ultimate Despair just barely clung to life. Springtrap scoffed as the bear animatronics dug its claws into her sides and shoved her deep inside of its chest cavity. Inside, dozens of spring locks dug into her and began ripping her apart. Junko struggled inside, but soon the sounds of her struggles stopped as blood leaked out of the animatronic. The remaining animatronics roared into the sky as the fire continued to burn around them, glinting off of the remains of the Monokumas.
KO!
Thea: Yikes.
Bryant: This wasn't an easy match to figure out. Both possessed many advantages over each other, ones which would cancel each other out.
Thea: Junko was stronger and faster through scaling to other Danganronpa characters. Attacking at the speed of sound and being tough enough to survive a grenade blast with no problem is more than what Springtrap can move at and attack with. But Junko didn't really have any reliable means of taking out Springtrap permanently. Sure the Destroyer Monokumas had flames to take him out, but fire by itself wasn't guaranteed. He's survived fire before after all.
Bryant: It was only when he was trapped in a burning building with literally no way out did he actually die. And Junko, while prepared, doesn't really have such a building at hand.
Thea: Especially without prep time.
Bryant: But in contrast, while the Twisted Animatronics were deadly and vicious, the Monokumas were much more plentiful and versatile thanks to having multiple versions of themselves with different abilities.
Thea: Junko was better at programming, but Springtrap was better with machines. Springtrap had experience killing, but Junko had more skill. They both were able to counter each other in just about every way.
Bryant: But while it certainly possible for Junko to use Springtrap's fire weakness against him, she wouldn't be able to figure out said weakness, as there's no equivalent of Remnant in her world, or even any real sign of its weakness and/or properties. Meanwhile, Springtrap could cancel out Junko's greatest strength, her Ultimate Analyst Talent, with his Sound Illusion disks.
Thea: Junko's Talent lets her absorb, analyze, and process information, but Springtrap's SI disks means he can control what information she gets. And while Springtrap was practically immortal, Junko was just a human.
Bryant: Even if we were to take their AIs into account, Alter Ego Junko has been forced to follow the rules of her simulation while Glitchtrap has been able to alter his simulation how he wished. Not to mention that Glitchtrap has been able to take over people's bodies as he wanted while Alter Ego needed to take over the bodies of people who died in her simulation, essentially leaving behind an empty husk of a body, implying that his programming was more powerful than hers. In the end, while Junko proved herself to be worthy of her title as Ultimate Despair, Springtrap just proved himself to be the superior killer.
Thea: Junko just couldn't win this trial. Which means the winner of this WI Battle is William Afton!
This was definitely a headache to do. Springtrap really isn't the kind of character I find easy to make a good analysis for since he ain't a character from a series where people do a lot of fighting. Danganronpa at least has characters fighting actual battles. I kinda wish I did Joker instead. Anyways, as per the usual, leave a review! Azure out!
NEXT TIME!
"Finally. A worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!"
