Sorry this isn’t really a “comic” but just me drawing specific moments in the DR3 anime. So this is an AU where class 78 survived and joined Future Foundation.Also I would see Ishimaru, Asahina, and Naegi as platonic best friends AKA two sunshines protectors with their sunshine.Ishimaru’s NG code explanation:So I was reading a post explaining Tengan’s possible motivations in setting up everyone’s NG code. So I tried to think of something that would be symbolic to Ishimaru while giving it a personal connection.There’s no doubt that Ishimaru has a habit of pointing a lot. You can tell because it’s one of his sprites and some of the official art depicts him pointing (also if you want to count the stage play too). I imagine that Tengan was aware of Ishimaru’s habit and gave him this (like Izayoi’s eating or Juzo’s punches).Pointing is also symbolic to his character. Depending on certain cultures, pointing is considered rude and aggressive which some people might describe Ishimaru as upon first impressions. Pointing is also a gesture that specifies going in one direction. For all of his life, Ishimaru thought he was going on one path for himself - study hard, follow the rules and the authorities, and become prime minister. Because of his narrow minded views, he hadn’t allow himself to be open for other paths such as socializing with friends. After the world apocalypse and joining Future Foundation, it has allow him to take on a different path and be more open in changes of direction.While I think Ishimaru probably respects Future Foundation’s organization, he trust more in Naegi’s decision of saving the Remnants of Despair than Future Foundation’s killing method. (I’d like to believe that class 78 trust each other more than the Future Foundation officials.) Hence the scene with Munakata, I wanted to show that Ishimaru is not trying to break his habit of pointing but to showcase that he is not walking down that single direction anymore - following the rules and authority of Future Foundation. He has allow himself to be open on a different path and believe in Naegi’s hope than Future Foundation’s hope. Also his dialogue was influenced by a reddit I saw. (I can provide links to Tengan’s motivations and the reddit if somebody asks.) -- source link
