A stuffed robotic bear and the self-proclaimed Headmaster of Hope's Peak Academy who instigates the various killing games in the Danganronpa series. Monokuma is often described as easygoing and cheerful at first glance, but with a very sinister undertone.. He loves hysteria, violence, chaos, and most of all, despair.

A group of 15 elite high school students are gathered at a very special, high class high school. To graduate from this high school essentially means you'll succeed in life, but graduating is very difficult. The school is presided over by a bear called Monokuma, and he explains to them that their graduation hinges around committing a murder. The only way to graduate is to kill one of your classmates and get away with it. If the other classmates discover the identity of the killer, the killer is the only one executed. However, if they fail to catch the killer, only the killer graduates and the others are annihilated. Which of the 15 will survive the bloodbath to come?

An adaptation of the game mostly told from the perspectives of the victims and killers, so we can learn more about their motives.

Chiaki Nanami is the Ultimate Gamer, selected as one of Japan's most expert teens to attend the elite Hope's Peak High School.

The rules are simple: to escape, you must not only kill a fellow student but get away with it, as the survivors will then cross-examine each other in a class courtroom. If they vote the wrong person guilty, the killer goes free, and the rest of them die! With no margin for error and high stakes, the Ultimate Gamer will need to use all her playing skills to suss out the secrets of Jabberwock Island and find the "true ending" for Nanami and her friends…survival and escape!
