Introduction
In the latest title, New Danganronpa V3: Everyone’s New Semester of Killing, the setting and characters have completely changed from the previous entries.
Additionally, there are new elements such as “daring to lie in order to better proceed through the class trial,” and many new systems such as “Scrum Debates,” which divides the trial into two teams.
The “psycho cool” theme strengthens the visual style and direction as a new story unfolds in a new high school.
Refute contradictions during class trials and expose the culprit that committed the murder in the high-speed reasoning action of Danganronpa.
Setting: Saishuu Academy (Gifted Inmates Academy)
A school with a unique atmosphere, overgrown with greenery from its classrooms to its corridors.

Five bear-type robots who call themselves the “Children of Monokuma” will appear. Under their father and the school headmaster Monokuma, they control Saishuu Academy, as well as the “killing game” carried out there. Each Monokuma has its own, entirely different personality, and are often unable to keep control of the conversation…
—Monotarou
The leader-esque figure of the five Monokumas, who often tends to get sidetracked. On the other hand, he can also have a child-like clumsiness about him.
