This article covers Leon Kuwata's School Mode events, which feature in Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. In this article you will find a guide to which trip options will give the best results, full transcripts of each trip, and transcripts of his Trigger Happy Heart event and School Mode ending.
After choosing where to go on a trip, Makoto will have a series of conversation topics to choose from. Depending on the option chosen, Makoto will receive a different response:
Best Option
1 heart
Good Option
½ heart
Bad Option
No hearts
Worst Option
No hearts
When getting close to 10 full hearts, Leon's Trigger Happy Heart event will be triggered, which will give Makoto an insight into Leon's inner thoughts.
Achieving 10 hearts will unlock Leon's ending at the end of School Mode. On the 51st day of School Mode, Makoto will be alone in the Gym with any characters that the player has earned full max reputation with. Talking to them will trigger a final dialogue choice option. If the player selects the correct answer, they will receive that character's special present - that character's underwear. This will also unlock a heart icon next to that character's picture's on subsequent playthroughs of School Mode.
Trips[]
Dining Hall[]
Didn't those piercings hurt?
Eh, when I first got 'em done, sure. But it goes away pretty fast.
Wait, why are you asking? You're not - are you thinking of getting a piercing? Ya know, you're so plain you could prolly get a ton and still pull it off!
Okay, as of today, I'm gonna start working on a Makoto remodeling plan!
I think we both had a pretty good time.
So what do you like to do at night?
Huh? At night...? Listen, what are you trying to get at? You tryin' to learn somethin' about my...habits?
Kinda gross, man.
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
How do you get your hair to do that?
What, you got a problem with it? You think just cuz I'm a sports kid, I gotta shave my head?
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
What's your favorite food?
If I tell you, are you gonna make it for me?
Then you better tell me what you can make first!
I think we both had a pretty good time.
Do you know how to cook?
My specialty is cup ramen. Oh, but I'm also pretty good with frozen food!
And, uh...that's about it. Heh...
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
What should we talk about...?
You're the one that brought me here. You think of something!
...Come on, can't you think of *anything*!?
Tell ya what, you take your time and come find me when you've got somethin' worth sayin'!
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
When I'm starving, it's burger time!
Oh yeah, same here!
But how are you supposed to eat 'em, anyway? Every time you pick it up, it starts drippin' all over everything. Depending on where I go, sometimes I end up having to just pick it apart and eat it piece by piece!
I really wish they'd do somethin' about that. But I bet that kind of awkward charm would work in my favor.
It'd be like, "Oh he's normally so cool, but look how he eats that hamburger all awkward and charming!"
It looks to me like he had a really good time.
Want something to drink?
Oh, you sure! Sorry to make you go out of your way! I'll take a Pepsi, if they have it.
If it's good enough for the king of pop, it's good enough for me! Maybe I'll get my own commercial deal!
Leon's really going nuts about this whole "famous musician" thing...
I think we both had a pretty good time.
For breakfast, Japanese style is best.
Huh? What makes Japanese any better than Western? They're, like...separate but equal, ya know? Besides, why even say something like that? What are you expecting me to do?
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
School Store[]
I remember those toy vending machines!
Yeah dude, that takes me way back... I spent so much money on those things as a kid. Now I never even go near 'em...
Were you into that stuff as a kid, too? There's actually a trick to these. Like a little game before you turn it...
Heh-heh! Just leave it to me. I'll get the coolest toy in there!
It looks to me like he had a really good time.
Let's dig for treasure.
Oh, sounds like fun!
What'll you give me if I find it? Also, what are we looking for? Maybe, like...a glossy, limited edition poster of Sayaka's band!?
Yeah! Let's do it! I'm gonna find it and totally get it autographed!
I think we both had a pretty good time.
That's a pretty cute doll.
Doll...? Are you into stuff like that? Oh, you said you had a little sister, right? That must be why, huh?
Sorry, but that's way outta my league. Totally not into it.
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
There's all kinds of paintings here...
Huh. I never would've expected stuff like this at a school store.
I mean, who do they think is gonna buy these things? I don't get it... Oh well. No point thinking about it.
But I've never really looked that close at a painting before. It's actually kinda cool!
But I feel like even I could draw something like that. What makes this stuff "art"?
I think we both had a pretty good time.
You think that accordion still works?
Accordion...? That's kinda...boring, isn't it?
I mean, you can do all kinds of sweet stuff with a bass or a guitar, but an accordion just sits there. With an accordion, I'd have to actually be able to sing to make an impression!
And that's totally NOT cool!
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun..
Let's organize things in here a little...
Jeez! Who are you trying to suck up to, man?
Brownie points aren't any good in here!
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
I wonder if they have any new DVDs...
Yeah, nights get pretty boring here, huh? Maybe we can find some DVDs to kill some time. Now's the perfect time to conquer some of those super long TV series I never got around to!
Let's see what they've got...
I think we both had a pretty good time.
I want this awesome armor!
...What the hell for? What, are you gonna wear it around? You probably don't even know how to display it!
Listen, man. Are you feelin' okay? Sure you're not sick or somethin'?
I mean, you don't think that's cute, do you? You've got some freaky taste, dude...
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
Library[]
You think there's any cool books here?
Why don't we look and see if they have any comics!? With this many books, there's gotta be at least a couple around here, right?
Okay, I'm gonna start over here!
I think we both had a pretty good time.
Maybe we should tidy up a little.
Why would I wanna do that? I hate practicing more than anything, but cleaning comes in a close second.
Whether it's fielding grounders or wiping the floor, I don't wanna bend down like that ever again...!
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
So, Leon... Do you read much?
Well, a simple question deserves a simple answer. So nope! All I read is comics! I've never even opened a textbook!
You're not gonna get all teacherly on me and tell me how terrible that is, are you?
I don't think things could've gone any worse than that. Crap...
I'm gettin' kinda sleepy...
Yeah, same here. Just lookin' at all those spines lined up... Next to each other... *Yaaaawn*
See? Just can't stop myself from yawning...
Comics or whatever are fine, but when there's a billion words in there, that's the worst!
It looks to me like he had a really good time.
I love reading!
Are you sure you're, like...normal? And here I thought you and me were the same. But it turns out you're like, Mr. Bookworm...!
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
Should we spend some time studying?
S...Stu...dy...? Way to kill the mood. I'm outta here...
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
I just wanna read comics...
Seriously. All they have here is a bunch of crappy, boring old books.
Whoever got all this stuff shoulda thought things through a little more. Why build a library if you’re not gonna include the kinda stuff people wanna read!?
But who am I supposed to complain to about this. Like... Monokuma?
It looks to me like he had a really good time.
I wonder if there's any books on baseball.
Baseball...? Who knows? Who cares!? I don't! I don't care about baseball! Who cares about baseball!?
I need to stop hanging out with you, man! We're totally incompatible!
I don’t think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
Rec Room[]
Let's give darts a shot.
Oh-ho, is that a challenge? Actually...sorry, but I'm no good at throwing games like this. ... Hey! I know what you're thinking! "But aren't you a baseball god?" Well if you think THIS kind of throwing is anything like THAT kind of throwing, you're wrong!
Besides, I totally quit baseball! My mission is to become the Ultimate Musician. No more rolling around in dirt, mud, and sweat for me! I'm done with baseball, I'm done with throwing anything! I'm done!
Oh...but what if, as a famous singer, my special talent was throwing stuff?
Okay! I'll throw stuff! But just a little!
It looks to me like he had a really good time.
Let's play some pool.
Awesome! Pool's seriously cool, right? It totally fits my style, right? Plus I'm a natural at any game that uses balls.
What, you doubt me? Well, let's play a game and I'll make you a believer. Bring it on!
I think we both had a pretty good time.
Wanna play Othello?
Othello...?
No thanks. I'm not really into games where you gotta think and junk. Go ahead and play by yourself if you want, but I'm TOTALLY not into it!
It's not really a 1-player game...
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
Is that a slot machine back there...?
Whoa! It totally is! Let's give it a shot! It's totally the kinda thing a musician would do, right?
I mean, you hear about people hitting it big in Vegas and building a house in Macao or whatever, right? That kinda thing is glamorous as hell...!
I feel like a true musician should be good at winning slots and stuff like that.
So let's practice my victory reactions!
It looks to me like he had a really good time.
Do you read a lot of comics?
Uhh...are you trying to imply that all I read is comics?
Well...you're right!
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
You wanna look at these fashion magazines?
Huh...? I'm a musician, man! It's my job to CREATE fashion trends, not chase after them!
Actually...he's *not* a musician. But he'd probably just yell even more if I said that...
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
I'm not sure about any of these games...
In general, I'm more of the outdoors-y type! Not that I can do anything about it in here...
Agh! I just wanna get outta here! I wanna go throw some fastballs! Some real screamers! ...
...Forget you heard that! I hate baseball!
I think we both had a pretty good time.
Kinda boring here, huh...?
Uh...*you* invited *me* here. Think of something to do. ...
I mean, I guess they gathered all us ultimates together and stuff. But if they're gonna do that, they should build a rec room with more for us sporty types to do!
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
For real! She's awesome, right? You think she'd sing for me!?
I know! I should ask her if she wants to start a band with me!
I mean, it'll be fine, right? Cuz I'm the superstar, and I'm the one inviting *her*.
Oh man... I'm startin' to get super excited!
It looks to me like he had a really good time.
What's your favorite kind of music?
What!? Can't you tell? It should be totally obvious! Punk, no question!
Anime theme songs are pretty popular, but no way!
Oh, but licensing and tie-ins are another story completely!
I think we both had a pretty good time.
I wanna do some karaoke.
Karaoke? Here?
Just thinking about it pisses me off. I don't think I'd be able to have any fun at all...
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
I'm a big fan of music.
Seriously!? You're into music, too!? Hey, you wanna be in my band?
But you can't be the singer! The singer's always the famous one, and that's gonna be ME!
Not that I have anything to worry about. You totally don't have that singer swagger.
I think we both had a pretty good time.
I've always wanted to see some live music.
Huh? You're into that kinda stuff too? We should go together sometime!
Although... I have a feeling our tastes probably don’t really match up.
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
Can you play any instruments?
What!? Are you trying to be funny!?
I'm the singer! I'm in charge of the *image*, man!
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
That piano looks pretty expensive...
Hmm... Yeah, it's not bad. For a high school.
I can't play or anything, but I think that shiny black finish is totally badass. And you usually perform by yourself, right? So you get to stand out. Pretty awesome!
I mean, I'm assuming that’s how it is, anyway.
I think we both had a pretty good time.
Wanna try singing together with everyone?
What, like...a chorus performance?
Why would I want to stand in a line and sing with everyone else?
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
Can you play the piano?
I mean, that's not really all that important, is it?
And it takes a lot of practice to get good at it, right? Sounds like too much work to me...
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
Garden[]
It's super humid in here, huh?
The heat, the humidity...it kinda reminds me of the field in the middle of July...
...Ah! Did...did I say something just now?
N-No, forget it! I didn't say a thing! Right? You didn't hear anything, right!?
I think we both had a pretty good time.
Look at those chickens!
Yeah, it's a pretty classic school setup. Rabbits are probably number one though.
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
Wanna do some gardening?
Gardening?
Gardening sucks!
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
I'd love to just lay down and go to sleep.
Yeah! This is the place to be in the afternoon right after lunch, huh?
Oh, but I bet you wouldn't ditch class to sleep the day away, huh? You're a good student.
But try it once and you'll understand! You can come with me next time.
We should probably find a way to get out of here first though, huh...?
It looks to me like he had a really good time.
The happy blue sky kinda cheers me up...
That's very poetic, but it's still just a ceiling painted blue.
Hey, come on, don't make that face! I mean, this place still kinda feels like the outside, right?
The ceiling's pretty high. Even a homerun shot might not hit it... How much money does this place have to build something like that!?
I think we both had a pretty good time.
Wanna walk around a bit?
Is that why you invited me?
Well... Not like I'm doing anything else. Sure, I guess we can walk around for a while.
I get the feeling he didn’t have much fun...
Do you like this place?
Well, it's better than most of the other places in this school.
It's not like the dining hall or whatever has a view of the outside world. And even if we could see outside, all it would do is remind us that we're trapped in here...
A-Anyway! We need to just focus on getting out of here...!
I think we both had a pretty good time.
We can't eat those chickens...
Come on, you think I'm an idiot?
Don't make fun of me! You think I don't know that chicken comes from chickens!?
Should I say something...?
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
Why don't we do some flower viewing!?
Flower viewing...? Not cool, man! Seriously not cool! What are you, someone's grandpa?
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
General Reactions[]
These dialogues are the reactions Makoto will receive at the end of the trip, depending on which choice was made.
Best Option
Damn man, that was a blast!
But...it feels kinda weird, having so much fun in a creepy place like this. It's not normal, no matter how you put it. ...
B-But screw the details! I had fun, that's all that matters. Okay, let's head back!
Good Option
I had a good time today, Makoto! You and me get along pretty well, huh? Let's do it again sometime. It's kinda nice. I can just relax and be myself around you, ya know?
Alright! Ready to head back?
Bad Option
Ugh... That wasn't really as refreshing as I'd hoped. I guess I shouldn't have expected to have much fun in a place like this...
Ahh...I'm starting to get depressed again. I'm gonna go back to my room and go to sleep. See ya, man...
Worst Option
God I'm tired...! I almost wish I'd just spent the day alone in my room.
I'll have to think twice about going out next time you invite me...
Trigger Happy Heart[]
Trigger Happy Heart is a minigame in School mode. It uses mechanics similar to the Non Stop Debate trial minigame during Class Trials. During this event, Makoto will get insight into Leon's inner thoughts, and can refute or confirm something he is anxious about by using special Truth Bullets called "negation" and "affirmation". Successfully navigating this event is necessary to unlock Leon's ending.
Transcript[]
Leon's Trigger Happy Heart
I knew what I told everyone...
I said I was gonna become a famous musician.
But right now... I don't give a crap about music.
After all this time... I just wanna play baseball.
I never thought that'd be possible, but...
Man! I'm so uncool right now!
Just friggin' pitiful...
And I don't even have the balls to tell anyone...!
All I can do is keep it hidden from everyone till this is all over...
Options[]
Negation: keep it hidden from everyone till this is all over
You don't have to keep anything hidden.
What!?
Whatever you want to do, or want to say, keeping it bottled up doesn't help anyone.
R-Really? But... Wouldn't everyone think I was a total idiot if I told them how I really felt?
I'm sure they'd see how important it was to you. No one would call you an idiot. No one would laugh.
Oh... Makoto...thank you.
Not that I've made a decision one way or the other, but still... I feel better. Heh!
It looks to me like he had a really good time.
Affirmation: I just wanna play baseball
That's fine, isn't it?
...Huh? Fine? What is?
There's nothing wrong with you wanting to play baseball. Why would there be? You like what you like. What's wrong with that?
M-Makoto... How...? How did you know what I was thinking? ...
Ya know, normally when people are able to guess what you're thinking... ...it can be totally irritating, right?
But... For some reason, I'm not mad at all! Actually... I kinda feel good! Haha! What the heck? Thank you, Makoto! You're like my...soulmate!
I think we both had a pretty good time.
Negation: I just wanna play baseball
But you already decided to quit playing baseball, right?
What!? I-I didn't say anything about playing baseball!
Oh, yeah. You didn't.
W-Wait...! Did I just...let something slip?
N-No! No way! I was just...ya know, thinkin' about it a little!
O-Oh... Then that's fine.
I get the feeling he didn't have much fun...
Affirmation: keep it hidden from everyone till this is all over
Maybe it's a good idea to keep it hidden...
You're right. I can't say anything. Not now... Wait! Makoto?
You better not tell anyone, or else! Got it!?
R-Right, of course...
And I can't believe you figured me out. Freakin' lame...
I don't think things could have gone any worse than that. Crap...
Leon's Ending[]
If Makoto has achieved all 10 hearts by the 51st day of School Mode, Makoto will unlock Leon's ending.
Leon's School Mode Ending
I decided to talk to Leon one more time before we all left... I wonder if this is the last time we'll ever see this place... The time we spent here didn't make much sense, but...looking back, I can't say I didn't have fun. There are still some mysteries left. What was Monokuma, really? Why'd we end up here? I still don't have answers, but I'll have time to figure all that out once we escape...
Hell yes! Finally, we're gettin' our asses outta here! None of this made any damn sense, but it's over!
Yeah, you're right.
But man...what the hell was Monokuma's deal? And I guess I originally came here to, ya know, go to school... But I didn't wanna go here anymore anyway, so whatever!
Really...?
What, you don't believe me?
N-No, it's not that...
But graduating from here is like being on the winning team, right? Why would you want to throw that away?
Oh, well, I already decided. I'm gonna go back to playing baseball.
Does that make me lame?
No, not at all. I think it's a great idea.
Heh. Thanks! I just gotta beg my old team for forgiveness.
Leon looks...really happy. ... But there's something I'm worried about...
Oh, by the way...can I say just one thing?
Sure, what's up?
What position?
Which position will you play?
Huh? What, are you kidding?
N-No, I just...thought I'd ask.
What the hell else would I play besides pitcher?
Oh yeah, good point... Actually...that's not really what I wanted to say.
I'm not going to play with you.
You weren't serious before, right? I don't need to play with you...
Huh? What are you talking about?
W-Well... Playing with you would be kinda like...
Whaaaat!? I never friggin' asked you to play with me! You don't know the first thing about baseball! Sorry, but why would I ever wanna play with you?
Ahaha...yeah, true. But actually, what I really wanted to say was...
What about singing?
I'm assuming not, but...are you gonna keep singing?
Huh? Yeah, of course! What, did you think ALL I was gonna do from now on was play baseball?
Ah, w-well...it's not like I doubt your dedication! I just thought it'd be really hard to focus on baseball *and* singing at the same time...
Don't you understand? That's exactly WHY I have to do both!
Huh...?
An athlete can only play for so long, ya know? Even as the Ultimate Baseball Star... ...I know I won't be able to play for the rest of my life.
But when you're a star player, you have the chance to go on talk shows and stuff, right? Pitch for a while, then go on to become "the ex-baseball star who's a totally famous singer now"! It's a totally new approach, huh!?
Y-Yeah, it's new, that's for sure...
Right? Not just a baseball player, and not just a singer. It's an all-new approach, just for me! But...ya know... The only reason I was able to figure out this new approach... ...is because you were there to listen to me all those times. That's what I think, anyway.
But... I didn't do anything.
C'mon, don't say that! You're getting a huge thanks from a future superstar. Just accept it!
Leon was grinning from ear to ear. He was beaming...
Okay then, I accept.
Nice! Seriously, Makoto... Thank you.
I'm sure that, from now on, no matter what challenges Leon might face, he'll conquer them all. His smiling face, standing there with me, talking about the future... That's an unforgettable symbol of our hope. And that's how my school life at Hope's Peak Academy came to an end...
After completing Leon's school mode ending, you will receive the following Present:
104. Leon's Undergarments
Leon's favorite supportive sports underoos. He may claim he hates baseball, but deep down it still holds a special place in his heart. After all, that's what makes him "ultimate".
