The World Ends With You

Chapter 2

Summary:

Hajime's relationship chart.

Chapter Text

Makoto Naegi: I owe a debt of gratitude towards him I’ll never be able to repay. It’s not a stretch to say he saved my life. He could tone down the optimism though…

Toko Fukawa: It might be expecting too much for us to get along, but we’re like kindred spirits. She’d deny it 100%.

Kokichi Ouma: He’s my nephew but really feels more like my little brother. Watch out for him.

Tsumugi Shirogane: My niece. Haha…we haven’t really talked much since my wife occupies her time. She comes over a lot to play with her cousins. It’s awkward keeping our relationships a secret.

Chiaki Nanami: It’s painful to think about. No further comment.

Komaru Naegi: She didn’t run from her normality and followed the path that I couldn’t. Like her brother, she saved me. Don’t tell her I said this, but I was taken by her ‘cool sides’ before we even met.

Nagito Komaeda: This guy…I won’t say I like him. I won’t say I dislike him. But we were inseparable. It’s…a feeling that can only be expressed to someone way too similar to yourself. If I could see him again…even if it’d be a pain, I’d drop everything and run over.

Hiroko Hagakure: "Heya…about that time in Towa City…Uh, don’t. Do not tell Komaru! I’ll do anything!...Okay, maybe not anything."

Mukuro Ikusaba: We had poor compatibility. She hated me, and I pitied her. Come to think of it, Mikan said Tsumugi reminded her of Junko…but if you ask me, she takes after her aunt.

Izuru Kamukura: My shame and an important person to me. Truth be told, he’s gone now. Sometimes I try to act like him, just to see if we can reconnect. No dice.

Junko Enoshima: My teacher, my partner, my mother and my enemy. I’m sure she had a wish, but I…

 

Notes:

It’s my opinion that after all Hajime’s seen and done, it’s unrealistic for him to turn out a completely good person, and that’s not the character I wanted to write. Similarly, I wasn't happy with DR3's take on Izuru so what I had in mind for him differed a lot from canon: In mental ages, Izuru's a child, and in those stages, curiosity is a big motivational factor. With his talents, not much catches his eye. When someone (Junko) did, he obsessed over her in his own scrupulous way.

There are probably 3 or 4 entries left in this series. I can promise a Toko/Komaru split and a Junko backstory to be among them. Stay tuned, and happy new decade!
