Only in school mode. The underwear thing started in DanganRonpa 2, but they implemented into the DR1+2 remake.
Only in School Mode's endings, but yes, it was.

Look forward to getting Gundham's underwear~
Finish the game.
For your "edit"
Remember, they do not want to do the killing by their own intention. It's always forced directly or indirectly. That's what good about the writing of this game.
There is literally no reason why any of the first
4
Just because they were coerced to kill doesn't mean they had to do it like idiots.
Something the game has in common with ace attorney. Except in Ace Attorney, all the detectives are clueless idiots while all the real investigation is done by lawyers.

I think the convoluted analysis actually works well all things considered.
Chapter 2:
This one was kind of impulsive, so there being clues isn't that outlandish. Besides, Hiyoko was to be framed, and we all know trying to frame someone just leaves more clues pointing back to the actual killer.
Chapter 3:
Mikan just wanted to cause despair. It was intentionally convoluted and it doesn't really seem like she cared about the outcome very much.
Chapter 4:
Gundham wanted to get caught.
I think the culprits do a pretty good job at directing where they want the trials and speculation to go at first.
Chapter 1-4 spoilers
The 2nd murder was literally on the spur. The culprit immediately moved in for the kill as Fuyuhiko went for the bat.
It was impossible for 3rd culprit to "slit someone's throat at night" as you suggested since they were stuck attending to their patients (it would be obvious if they did it that way). In any case, they had the perfect means of killing someone and getting away with it; it was only when the 2nd victim accidentally walked in that the trail got needlessly bigger. It should probably go without saying, but the 3rd trial was pretty unusual (the culprit would have never killed anyone had it not been for the Despair Disease)
The 4th murderer didn't intend to get away with it.

Ch. 4 spoilers:
But whatever, I'm nitpicking, obviously this game would be boring without all the insanity
If Gundham wanted to get caught, he would have just confessed. He's not Nagito; he didn't feel the need to create a situation where everyone had to rise to the occasion.
I think his murdering someone *was* the right move, but he took some extreme pains to hide his guilt.
Same with Mikan, really. If she didn't care about getting caught, she wouldn't have bothered with the insanity.
In Chapter 2, there were some things that were unavoidable, but Peko still tried way too much nonsense. A horrendously bad framing attempt led directly to her implication.

Chapter 4 spoilers
Gundham says that one shouldn't just give up on their life and just wait to die, which is probably why tried to hide the fact he did it. He wanted others to feel the same way.
I got completely destroyed by this chapter.
I'm just before the closing argument, and I really have no idea what's going besides what the characters are telling me.
I even had to use a guide cause I'm so lost on everything.
I dunno if it's cause I've got a headache or I just got hit with the stupid.
I hope I can get the latter chapters...

Is it just me, or is the new Hangman's Gambit confusing. I am a little behind and finally had time to play. I am at the first class trial, about to do the first Hangman's Gambit....so different than the first game.

NEW Hangman's Gambit can die in a fire for all i care.. so frustrating

Okay, I am doing alright at it. I think that it was more intimidating to actually start it, because of all of the rules. I'm sure it will get harder as the chapters progress, too.

Glad to know it wasn't just me. The Truth Blades were confusing at first, too. So many details for a quick section of the game.

Loved all of the first game and chapter 1 of the 2nd, but damn chapter 2 of this game bored the hell out of me. Thathad me skipping through text like crazy. I'm just glad it's over with and I hope it was just a hiccup, or I was just in a bad mood todayawful video game plot
Oh no.... Now I'm worried. I loved the first one.
Enjoy the ride.

Me too, but I was disappointed by part 2. This has a lot to do with the fact that I eventually found the overarching plot to be rather silly and you don't have much of that in danganronpa 1. Thankfully.

can some one explain to me the hp system in island mode. like why if they are in the orange and i send them somewhere then the die for like three days? i don't completely understand it.
Yeah, game is crap, you should be worried.
Please don't read the thousands of posts praising the game for being even better than the predecessor.
You see those arrows when selecting a location to send your guys/girls to? More arrows mean more life will be drained for collecting ressources in this location and the locations on the right can easily fatigue your characters even when they're yellow. I advise you to quickly build the item that will decrease the life drain and only afterwards all the other upgrades to speed up the collecting process.

They're tired. When someone's health level is low, just them sleep it out for a day.

yeah, i get when the icon is on all fours to rest them but if they are in the orange how do i know if i send them to x location that they'll pass out afterwards? so should i not be bothering doing any of usami's task on my first playthrough and just collecting/making tools and shit?
The tools/upgrades won't transfer to the new game+ of this mode, only the character levels (still helps a lot).
Basically in the beginning (while trying to fulfill Usami's wishes) also try to get all the stuff you need for the upgrades (first the less HP drain, then the other ones) as fast as possible, then this game becomes a breeze. And FYI:
Before researching the decrease life drain upgrade -> yellow characters will be fatigued after sent to a three arrow location
After researching decrease life drain upgrade -> yellow characters will never become fatigued, no matter what location.
Also creating the item "Jabba Hot Pot" (or whatever the name is, the healing item to heal the whole group) will help you tremendously.

jesus, really? i have only done one of the things usami asked because i havent been getting enough materials.
Chapter 3
No, Ibuki is dead!
Why do the characters I care about keep dying?
Hajime should had checked if Ibuki was dead when he got there though, long-shot, but it was silly of him not to do that.
From the looks of it, someone ordered Ibuki to kill Hiyoko and then to comit suicide.
Let's see where the investigation leads to though.

chapter two
Never felt like the game (or dr1) has been quite so frustratingly 'present the exact right thing I'm thinking of, not the other eight pieces of evidence that also price this point as well'.
Trying to work out va's just need on sound without looking it up. All I can think of is nagito as kirito, coach dude as Franky, I think Tara strong is hiyoko(?), and... Fuyu is really, really familiar, but I can't quite place him. Feel like I've heard him a million times though.

Are people that easily getting anxious over a single post and ignore the rest of the thread?

I am on the investigation phase in chapter 5 now.
No spoilers but...pretty much all my favorite characters are dead at this point so the game isn't as much fun as DR1 was when I got to its big climax.

There's a 6 HP health system. The red health indicator means they have 5-6 hp, orange I think is 3-4 hp, and blue is 1-2 hp. You have to kind of keep an eye on where you sent them previous, since if you send them to a 3hp zone(the last 4 choices) and they're in the orange, well you only have a 50% chance that they'll have the hp to last the trip. Usually safer to go to a lower zone. It's why in those modes the one tool that lowers HP costs is really good, since you can always send even an orange health person to a 3 hp zone and be fine(since it'll only be 2hp).
To fulfill monomi's requests, you really need to be good at coordinating where you're sending people. Starting off with at least 4 or 5 people to clean helps too, lowering this amount as they gain cleaning levels/get tools to help. The others you just kind of need to know where stuff is found. If one thing you need is like 4 or 5 down from the top in a 1hp location, and the same thing is on the top of a 3hp location, you'll have better luck sending one or two people to the 3hp location than the one with the lower one(as the lower it is the harder it is to get at that location). Then it's just a matter of balancing where you to send people given how many of something you need. You should be able to finish a request with a few days to spare, giving you time to start making tools.

They increase your SP so you can equip more skills. I believe they also increase your influence and concentration as well for the class trials.
Cool. I want to try to finish the game today since I have the day off, but I also have a ton of studying to do, so I've got the control stick propped up and Hajime is running in a corner of
so that I can work on the level and step trophies. (And the virtual pet ones, assuming I remember to look at it often enough.)
Grape House
It'll just get replaced with a new one/you start over. & don't worry, as long as you clean up after it, you should be good. The items are only to raise its hope level.
Oh, OK, thanks.

The despair meter resets with new pet. You don't need any items to keep a pet alive anyway, you just need to clean the shit.
If a pet dies you just have to start over with a new pet.
Chapter 3
Mikan got her memory back because of the despair disease? What?
And that made her kill people for what reason?
If she wanted to go to her beloved she could had killed herself, what was her motivation to kill others to exit the island again?
Also why go to the trouble of creating a video feed?
No one would had figure out it was Milkn since no one had an actual aliby if not for her convulted plan to create false evidence.
What a cluster fuck of a case.
The game is also quickly running out of characters I care about.
