I can't remember exactly where I found it. But there was one concept for a class swap similar to that one I mentioned somewhere on this site. It was more focused on the Despair Class 78. But I was immediately interested when it had the idea to make Nagito the protagonist. Since in most other class swaps, it's typically either Chiaki or Hajime. I feel like you could do a really fun character arc with that premise.

I believe the other survivors were Mahiru, Gundham, Sonia, Kazuichi, Mikan, and Hiyoko. Could imagine lots of fun friendship/shipping stuff with that group. As well as some tragic potential with deceased classmates like Chiaki and Imposter.

I don't think the outline I saw had ironed out all the details of the THH scenario. So I adopted my own headcanons. Like Class 77 retaining memories of the first year, since they're older and it'd be harder to cover up the amnesia (especially with Hiyoko's growth spurt). As well as stuff like Imposter being the last one to die, and bonding scenes with them makes their death hit Nagito much harder. Also mused about the idea of Chiaki being the blackened in a similar way to Kaede. The mastermind realizing that the retained memories of the first year means Chiaki has to be eliminated and discredited early on, because Class 77 are a lot less willing to participate in the Killing Game in this AU.

MIKAN BEING A SURVIVOR WOULD BE AMAZING ( I know they all survived at the end of the anime but that's a long time later and this group would be adorable ) Mahiru would be so kind to them and take care of the others I love her so much, I think I heard that Hiyoko was originally supposed to be a survivor which would've also been cool, GUNDHAM TANAKA WE LOVE YOUUU, him and Sonia would get along well and Kazuichi would be like >:0 or something lol it's okay we still love you Souda, Mahiru and Hiyoko would also bond, and maybe Mahiru could help out Mikan a bit or a girls night with them or they can all have sleepovers and take care of one another and-

Hehehe I got a lil carried away, I just love survivor groups, they're so wholesome and a found family, but I think Gundham and Mikan could get along well because he's a softie deep down and we love Tanaka!! 💖💖 IMPOSTER BEING THE LAST TO DIE NOOOO WE LOVED YOU BRUH!! They deserve the world!! It would, so much angst and hurt HAHAHAHH I LOVE IT!! *evil laughter lol* >:)

OMG THAT'S GENIUS LIKE A SIMILAR SITUATION TO KAEDE NOT ACTUALLY BEING THE BLACKENED, The similarities!! :00 that's a genius idea, her dying earlier on when they retain their memories, this can work so well!!!! Chiaki you were amazing, and also she deserved better, she slayed so hard they decided to kill best girl twice, but I love the idea of her having a Kaede role <33

Happy Femslash February YAYY!!<33 💞💞

I believe the first fic was one called Paper and Steel. An ongoing FuyuPeko fic that has some neat Fuyuhiko + Nagito quasi-friend interactions. Which is doubly fun for me, as Kuzukoma is actually one of my fondest ships for both characters. He reveals to Fuyuhiko that he actually requested a withdrawal and transfer from Principal Kirigiri so that Natsumi could take his place. There's also one fairly recent Nagito x Natsumi one-shot I came across, where he goes to her funeral with Fuyuhiko.

The other one was an ongoing Persona AU comic on Reddit. I can't remember the exact name. But yeah, it had Nagito and an amnesiac Sato end up in a cult that worships talent. Where they end up developing a kind of sibling bond, with Sato as Nagito's only real friend. A big turning point for both characters is when they finally defy the cult leader and leave together.

Tbh...I actually can't help but fantasize about Komahinatsumi and Komasatozumi AUs as well. Since I'm also a fan of Komahina, Hinatsumi, Komazumi, and Satozumi. Maybe Nagito would be platonic with Natsumi and Sato, or maybe it'd be romantic, who knows lol. Or wait...a Komahinanatsusatozumi verse! In which somehow that cheeky shit becomes the unifying cog-piece in a complex five-way relationship that prevents the Twilight Syndrome incident...And he may also be having some flings with Natsumi's brother on the side. Yasuke can join in too.

Paper and Steel got it!! I definitely have to give that a try soon, AHHHH IT HAS FUYUPEKO MY BABIESSSS ehehehhe that sounds adorable Kuzukoma is cute too!! AWW HE DID THAT'S SO NICE OF HIM FUYUHIKO WE LOVE YOU BOI!! The last one looks angsty!! I live for angst haha

Oh my gawd I love the idea of Nagito and Sato being a found family, defying the cult leader and leaving together?!?! AHHHH THAT'S SOUNDS SO GOOD HOW DO PEOPLE WRITE SO WELL!!

KOMAHINANATSUSATOZUMI SUPREMACY PEOPLE‼️‼️ They should all just poly it out, YEAH yasuke should!! And a Nagito having a few flings with Fuyuhiko hehe poly ships are just so adorable and would you look at that it prevented a murder too!!💞💞

I don't want to give away too much about Izuru in P4 +D2 (nor do I know if you saw any of the lore behind him and such), but to summarize him in the shortest way possible...

He attacc

He wants his creme puff snack

But more importantly, he wants his friend bacc

Haha I'm already finishing and am somewhat there, got a little busy these days not gonna lie, but he's also my favourite here, HE ATTACK LOL, YEAH GIVE HIM HIS CREME PUFFS!!!! AWW HE JUST WANTS HIS FRIEND BACKKKK NUUUU ZURU THAT'S JUST SADDDD!!!! It's Tsumugi I think right???? just an educated guess because I read only a bit (2 chapters) that time before I went back and from read the start, but I really have to finish.. for the LOREEE AGHHHHHH!!!! But poor guy lol!! That meme aged well and love the way you wrote him AND HE NEEDS HIS FRIEND!!!! 💕💕

Nagitos of all kinds pop up in the gathering. Nagitos from non-Despair verses, AUs, gender-flipped Nagitos, even a small handful of Nagizurus/Kamukura Nagitos. Like the Komahina club for example will have some FemNagitos that are in yuri Komahina relationships (or FemNagito x Hajime, Nagito x FemHajime, or even non-binary Komahina).

And of course the Nagitos from verses with a version of the Tragedy compare notes with those from non-Despair verses. The Komaegi Nagitos from non-Despair verses feel so vindicated learning from their counterparts that their boyfriend became the Ultimate Hope in other universes, being like "I KNEW MAKOTO WAS SPECIAL!". The Komaegi Nagitos and Matsukoma Nagitos in general are a wee bit braggadocious about having won the love of Makoto and Yasuke. And take pride in having some exclusivity.

Though things get really funny when they learn how things went in class swap verses (where Chiaki, Hajime, or even Nagito himself became the THH scenario's protagonist). And are shown footage of Despair Makoto. They all start fanning themselves and going "Oh my!" because of just how very...captivating he is. Especially if there's some foe yay going on between Despair Makoto and Protagonist Nagito.

Most of the clubs have their own variant of "Octagon!". Like with those prior three, the Kuzukoma Nagitos giggle at the thought of Fuyuhiko being grumpy and shouting "Dumbass!". The Komazumi Nagitos get all dreamy at the idea of Mahiru with her hands on her hips and going "Geez!". And the Twokoma Nagitos are like "Does your Imposter wag their finger and say 'Nagito, no' to you too?", to which they're like "YES, LMAO!!"

The Komahinanatsusatozumi Nagito we talked about earlier is like a weird celebrity among them. Most polyship Nagitos will usually only be in a relationship with two people. Some Komahinanami Nagito will see him brandishing his Komahina, Komazumi, Natsukoma, and Komasato membership cards and be all...

"Gee Nagito, how come you get to have four relationships?"

"Six. Getting the paperwork for my Matsukoma and Kuzukoma memberships sorted out."

"Does the Natsumi in your universe know about you and her brother?"

"Yeah, she doesn't mind. After seeing so many universes with a Tragedy I'm only more certain now than ever that what we have is wonderful."

"Well, at least I know you'll never get to experience the joy of being a Komanami Nagito."

"Actually our verse's Chiaki and her girlfriend Mikan are thinking of joining our polycule. Sato invited Mikan."

"...Dammit."

OMG DESPAIR FREE VERSES, AJSBSJSJN Gender flipped Nagito!!!! That's so cool AHHHH YURI KMHN MY BELOVED, ooooo enby kmhn I need more of themmm BRUH THIS IS SO COOL, "I KNEW MAKOTO WAS SPECIAL" GAHHH MY HEART 💞💞 This is so amazing I don't know what to say!!

Haahhahah kzkm's one is accurate, MAHIRU WOULD, I CAN IMAGINE THEM DOING THAT LOL IMPOSTER WE LOVE YOU, well wow Nagito you went from a hopless romantic to having 4 people in a loving poly, LOOK AT YOU GOO!!<33 Six!! Tell him my guy, YEP Natsumi wouldn't mind!! Maybe they'd fight over him sometimes because aggressive blondes haha but it would be chill with her, YEAH NANAMIKI RIGHTS!!!! THEY GONNA BE THE BEST POLY EVER AND TAKE OVER THE WORLD OR SOMETHING I DUNNO I'M JUST HAPPY TO SEE HIM BE LOVED!! 💕💕 hahahah the remark though-

Icon <3

WE STAN OUR BI DEATH METAL QUEEN IN THIS HOUSEHOLD 🎸⚡

Even more hilariously, probably like half of the people he's killed were in self-defense incidents. Nagiko's just like "Bruh, those are rookie numbers, LMAO!" Having not only killed more in her travels, including some Junko and Mukuro variants, but also having met what she considers "Real villainous Komaedas". In a weird condescending way she kind of alleviates his guilt about being a Remnant.

"Nagito, buddy. Come the fuck on, you're not an irredeemable monster. Want to know what a real evil version of you looks like? You should have seen the tyrannical CEO version of us I stumbled upon a few months back. Jesus Christ, now THAT guy was a piece of shit."

Unfortunately for main Nagito, she only starts laughing harder after a pause when Protag!Nagito does some mental counting. And then is like "Hang on a minute, I think I've actually killed like two or three more people than he has in the service of the Future Foundation. So...does that make me more hardcore than my own Remnant counterpart?". The main one gives a glare like he's about to deck his protag self in the face.

SELF DEFENSE INCIDENTS LOL, I my pathetic son<33 THEY ARE ROOKIE NUMBERS!! TELL EM NAGIKO 🗣️‼️ Oooo Junko and Mukuro varients!! This is just wonderful!! HIS GUILTTTT NOOO MY BEAUTIFUL SON SHOULDN'T HAVE TO FEEL THAT WAYYYY-

HAHHAHA THAT WARMED MY HEART SO MUCH!! Yeah that tyrannical version is a real basta- HONESTY THAT IS JUST SO CUTE!! We stan Nagiko here and I wanna give my boy a hug!! 🩷🩷 YOOOOOOO THAT'S HILLARIOUS!! GET HIM REMNANT KOMAEDA AHAHHAHA- he was to pathetic to kill people and his literal PROTAGONIST COUNTERPART killed more than himmm!! NO WONDER HE'S SO ANGRY AAHAHAH, That's just crazy, I love this trio hehe :)
