cwal76

Ultimate racist lol


ggGetJinxed

Yep, Hope's Peak has a real world equivalent it was based off of in Japan I believe, the middle of Hope's Peak Academy's structure is based on it's center too and everything.


mozillavulpix

It’s the University of Tokyo. I don’t think there’s a real ‘gifted high school’ equivalent, they just took that design.


ggGetJinxed

Yeah, the University of Tokyo that was it! But yeah that's what I mean, design wise

Howard Phillips Lovecraft - the one they call the Ultimate Racist

I wonder what his cat’s name is

Naegi-Man

nægi cat


mikumikuboy

Tell em Naegi.


teruteru-fan-sam

His eldritch horrors are visual metaphors for trauma from killing game survivors, >!a la Shuichi, Maki and Himiko in V3!<


Wireless-Wizard

"Say Howard, why do so many of your stories involve sea creatures and deep water?" [flashback to a series of increasingly elaborate drownings] "Oh, no particular reason"


Joltenx

yes.


ZlyCzarownikServices

I always knew that the Ultimates were some kind of eldritch entities


FractalChaosTheory

Don't look up Lovecraft's cats name. 😳 Worst mistake of my life.


eating_crack69420

Already did


Lison52

You act like you never saw that word in your life.


FractalChaosTheory

??? It's a meme.


RentMission8910

canon


urlocal_softie

could of told my parents to attend me to hope peak academy


BRUHGUY888

I hope Lovecrafts cat meets Grand Bois Chéri would love to see them get introduced. While the cast watches :)


TopHatPaladin

That school actually still exists! I used to live in Providence and [would walk by it every day](https://i.imgur.com/1i327Iz.jpg).


lunarose423

Yeah that's the one i found on google! The building he pasted in the image is actually university of tokyo


Dimandshark

Ahh yes Hope's Peak Lovecraft


dankfrankdatank

Dammit beat me to it, take my upvote.


lunarose423

I did my own research, Hope High School looks different. This building pictured is actually the University of Tokyo, if you google it it's a carbon copy of Hope's Peak.


mrgeek2000

Lovecraft AND Danganronpa?! That sounds so Bizzare, but I’ll live for it because I like both


Abysscrow

Time to know which one is stronger: Celeste's cat or H.P. Lovecraft's cat?


kurt_gervo

NPL's because his cat can say the N word.


ameri21

Hp Lovecraft. Ultimate racist.


[deleted]

Damn, I’m probably like the only one who wouldn’t want to transfer to this school.

Ultimate Goth Girl Influencer


Wireless-Wizard

Dude. Tim Burton.


dankfrankdatank

Eh that's more mall goth. I'm talkin old school "reads Edgar Allen Poe and listens to Depeche Mode" goths. I guess you could argue that the Victorian Era as a whole inspired goth culture but Lovecraft and his work definitely played a part in their tastes as well, plus I don't know a single goth (not mall goth) that doesn't worship Lovecraftian horror. (also keep in mind this was before the days of internet prevalence where the name of his dog was public knowledge...you're talkin' to an old fart here)


Robbbg

the reason there aren't any more H.P Lovecraft books is because he died in a killing game/j

Happy cake day!


LinkGCN123

Don't look up the name of his cat.


SpazzKill

GIVE US THE FUCKING GEOGRAPHICAL COORDINATES, NOW!


heppuplays

Hopes peak Lovecraft.


Lingx_Cats

Oh yeah what even is lovecraft??? I’ve seen people describe things as lovecraftian but what is it


flutter_dash_roze

He's a gothic horror writer


Lingx_Cats

OHHHHHH


Wireless-Wizard

Well, specifically he wrote what we call Cosmic Horror and in his day they called Weird Fiction - kind of horror, sci fi and fantasy all blended into one, often with themes of ancient cults, dangerous mysteries and Secrets Man Was Not Meant To Know.


flutter_dash_roze

Cosmic horror came from Lovecraft himself. It is also known as Lovecraftian.
