* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Since [[spoiler:Chiaki]] is the victim of Chapter 2, rather than Mahiru, [[spoiler:[[ImpliedLoveInterest Hajime]] is much more upset since he also played the game and wanted to protect her, but failed. Mahiru also noticed he was more irritated than usual after being implied to have played the game. Monomi is also noted to be more angry and forceful, since she and Chiaki were like "sisters" in their role for the Future Foundation. Her four lines and sprites after the body discovery announcement are a sad sprite with ellipses, followed by three sprites of her glaring at Monokuma with ellipses]].

* TheFirstCutIsTheDeepest: Nagito dropping his MaskOfSanity in the first trial really affects her. His betrayal of her trust causes her to hesitate at several points in Chapter 2, and is the reason why she hesitates and ends up not volunteering to help Hiyoko tie her kimono.

** In the original game, Mahiru characterized herself as someone without an intelligence streak, whereas here she is the one who leads the class through much of the trial and is able to correctly identify the blackened, in the same capacity as Hajime, who instead is one of the other main "point getters". It should be noted that she's not unintelligent in the game, though it's implied to be Nagito and Byakuya's influence as they encourage her or tell her to not let her emotions cloud her judgement, since one of Mahiru's hallmarks is that she's a FieryRedhead.

In the Chapter 1 investigation, she at first uses the same "Not confident or smart enough to investigate" as in canon when at first wanting to guard the body until Nagito encourages her and she investigates while Hajime takes her place guarding the body and she lends him her camera so he can create a map of where everyone was during the blackout.



* FieryRedhead: Mahiru is this, just like her canon self. Her introduction to [[HotBlooded Nekomaru]] is rather funny, as it consists of Nekomaru loudly praising her voice, while she's yelling at him to [[HypocriticalHumor stop yelling]], and Nagito is the one to awkwardly give her name to Nekomaru. Her fieriness gets her to argue with Fuyuhiko, just like in canon, though unlike canon, Byakuya, Sonia and Chiaki suggest she not "poke the bear" and try to mediate instead of snapping back at people, given their tense situation, which Mahiru takes to heart for some CharacterDevelopment.

** Also in the original, it was Mahiru, Hiyoko, Ibuki and Mikan that were the friend group in the ''Twilight Syndrome'' game and in the ''Danganronpa 3'' anime, but this has [[spoiler:Chiaki]] taking the place of Mahiru. [[spoiler:This could potentially also be a lie by Monokuma, as, unlike claimed in the ''Twilight Syndrome'' game, Mahiru had nothing to do with covering up Natsumi Kuzuryu's murder according to ''Danganronpa 3'', so it could be that Real!Chiaki wasn't a part of the friend group, still, like it was in canon]].

The story is written via blog meant to imitate the presentation of the game, with each character speaking in turn along with a sprite to denote their current emotional state, along with Mahiru's own internal monologue to communicate her own feelings and commentate on what's happening around her.

''[[https://www.sozzay.com/MK2/ Danganronpa MK2 Goodbye Despair]]'' is a fanfiction rewrite story created by Sozzay and {{BiteSizedBird}} inspired by ''VisualNovel/Danganronpa2GoodbyeDespair''. The story follows the same cast of sixteen students being forced to participate in a 'killing school trip' on Jabberwock Island. The difference here is that the protagonist is Mahiru Koizumi, the Ultimate Photographer, instead of Hajime Hinata, the Ultimate ???.

The story is written via blog meant to imitate the presentation of the game, with each character speaking in turn along with a sprite to denote their current emotional state, along with Mahiru's own internal monologue to communicate her own feelings and commentate on what's happening around her.
