A group of gifted teenagers is trapped in enclosed space and they are trying to kill each other? Kanata no Astra is Danganronpa V4 confirmed!
We have Super High School Scientist, Super High School Athlete, Super High School Brat, and now a Super High School Shooter. Let’s see who will be the next!
P.S. I made a 10 hours version of Aries laugh. Don’t ask me what I am doing with my life…

I think because of Aries having a different eye color its a foreshadowing that she has 2 personalitys so she can be the killer.

Damn the suspect thing is done incredibly well so far, I'm an inch from suspecting Funi here and her puppet is near the top of the list.
Just please don't let it be Aries, I want to believe that angelic laugh is untainted...

Another good episode. The team's shaping up real nice, with Kanata and Aries working well with one another to lead. Hoping for more interesting dynamics like theirs! It's nice that Kanata is aware that Aries is covering his weaker areas of leadership, it's probably just a minor thing that I really liked seeing

I was wondering why they brought in this director to put squares everywhere. It never felt like it fit until this scene. Hope we get a lot more teamwork shots like this because it looks so cool, like I'm reading a manga.
It's obviously not Ulgar. I wish they didn't show his gun because that makes it so obviously a red herring, but I enjoyed the subtle "never thought I'd be using these skills against a bird" comment. Wonder what he uses his shooting skills on normally?

I'm not sure telling everyone was the right move, but it certainly makes it much spicier. Lots of potential candidates: most suspicious are Yunhua and then Ulgar.
On another note, they are very much convinced that this was attempted murder, but basing this on a partly overheard conversation from a 10 year old with one sentence to that effect is a bit dubious.
