Danganronpa

**Danganronpa** is a visual novel video game and anime series created by Kazutaka Kodaka. The series follows High School students (named Ultimates or Super High School Levelers) as they are locked inside a school or some other type of area and have to kill to escape. It is divided between three mainline games, one spin-off game, one anime adaptation, multiple manga adaptations and a unique anime series which is divided into two arcs.

## Series Dictionary

* **Ultimate/Super High School Level:** Students with special, specific talents (ie, Ultimate Swimmer) that are scouted by the best school in the country, Hope's Peak Academy (said to be scouted by the government in Danganronpa: V3)

* **Killing Game:** A game created by Junko Enoshima. Involves students being trapped inside a large area (school, office building or an island are the examples we've seen) and following a specific set of rules where they have to kill the other students to escape (rules are largely different in the Danganronpa 3 - Future Arc Killing Game).

* **Class Trial:** Occurs after a murder in a Killing Game. Involves the remaining students trying to find the "blackened", the murderer, by debating and discussing. If successful, the blackened will be executed. If unsuccessful, everyone else will be executed and the blackened will be allowed to leave.

* **Mastermind:** The leader of the Killing Game. Usually, a student inside the Killing Game pretending to not know a thing.

* **The Tragedy:** A cataclysmic event caused by the Despair of the world. Ended the world with huge amounts of riots, protest and a large global war which only had the purpose of war alone.

* **Hope's Peak Academy:** The most important school in Japan. A school that scouts the Ultimates and is the starting point for the series. Many characters in the series idolize the school and the people who go to it.

* **Hope:** The main "good" ideological standpoint in Danganronpa. Carried by most of the main protagonists, usually used to fight against Despair. Means the definition of the word.

* **Despair:** The main "bad" ideological standpoint in Danganronpa. Usually carried by the mastermind. Is shown to be infectious and led to the downfall of society itself during The Tragedy.
