And Now for Someone Completely Different

And Now for Someone Completely Different is one of many TV Tropes used in BT Productions.

## Basic Info

A Video Game switches the characters that you're playing as.

## Examples

* ChiakiKitty's V3: During the prologue and Daily Life portion of Chapter 1, the story was told from Rantaro Amami's POV. Then Rantaro has to leave the classroom, so the POV switches to Kokichi Oma. Kokichi later finds Rantaro dead, so he takes charge of the investigation and the first half of the trial. But Kokichi cannot bring himself to send Kirumi Tojo to execution, so he assigns Maki Harukawa the task of continuing the trials for him, making her the new protagonist. During the Chapter 3 trial, Maki became so angry she cannot continue the trial normally, so Kokichi has to take charge again. Maki recovers in time for the closing argument. However, during Chapter 4, Maki snaps and attempts to kill Miu Iruma. As a result of the incident, Kokichi takes charge during the investigation. Maki returns in time for the trial, and the rest of the killing game is from Maki's POV.
* Danganronpa: Round of 25: Makoto Naegi has been the protagonist for the majority of the simulation, but while in the Virtual World during Chapter 11, control abruptly switches to Korekiyo Shinguji. It turns out Makoto died in the Virtual World. Then during the class trial, control switches again, this time to Kyoko Kirigiri. Monokuma thought the arguments between Kiyo and Miu Iruma would quickly get boring, so he had the students that did not participate in the killing game do the arguments instead.
* Goodbye Despair: Chapter 4's Deadly Life had the students isolated on different halves of the Funhouse, so the player got to play as Nagito Komaeda for some time before control returned to Hajime Hinata.
* Mauve: The prologue begins from the POV of Hiruto Iwada, but at the end of said prologue, a latecomer named Noyomi Mizuki is brought into the killing game. Chapter 1 is mostly from Noyomi's POV, but the player does see one final scene from Hiruto's POV before the true protagonist is established as Noyomi as a result of Hiruto's death.
* Scratch Danganronpa (6): The majority of the story is considered to be told from Makoto Naegi's point of view. During Chapter 5, Makoto is the victim, and control switches to Korekiyo Shinguji. Unlike the Round of 25, control does not switch again during the class trial.
* Super Danganronpa Another 2: Iroha Nijiue attempted to kill Sora during Chapter 4, so that chapter's Deadly Life was from the POV of Syobai Hashimoto. Control returns to Sora during the second half of the trial.
* Vurrkit's Danganronpa: Kokichi Oma was the protagonist and thus the majority of the story is told from his point of view. After Kokichi confesses his backstory to Shuichi Saihara during Chapter 5, control switches to the detective. It turns out Kokichi was the Chapter 5 victim, no longer able to handle the suffering he's been going through in Hope's Peak Academy. Then during the Chapter 6 trial, Kokichi reappears in Monokuma's spot. Turns out Kokichi faked his death, and he was the mastermind all along. The POV switches back to Kokichi as he drives the remaining students into deep despair.
* Yeoniigiri's V3: The story was first told from the POV of Miu Iruma. During the time period Miu made a lock for Maki Harukawa, the reader saw Himiko Yumeno's FTE with Tenko Chabashira. Miu then kills Ryoma Hoshi and makes Himiko the new protagonist on the spot. In Chapter 2, Angie Yonaga convinces Himiko to hold a magic show, so the FTEs during that period were from the POV of Shuichi Saihara. Control returns to Himiko the next day. During the remaining chapters, the reader saw some scenes from the POV of Kokichi Oma, but they aren't considered to be true switches.
