## Production

### Platforms

* YouTube

**Danganronpa Re:Birth Voices**, often abbreviated to **Re:Birth Voices** or **DRRB/V (DRRBVoices)**, is a cancelled video series and adaption of the Japanese video series Danganronpa Re:Birth, produced by Japanese game-developer Miwashiba (みわしいば) as an April Fools joke. *Re:Birth Voices* was produced by the Re:Birth Voices Team, a group of fans of Miwashiba's work. As of 2021, *Re:Birth Voices* contains a fully produced chapter, a fully voiced class trial for the first chapter, meet the Ultimate's for the entire cast, and several videos of the Rebirth Talent Development Mode. *Re:Birth Voices* was cancelled on July 22, 2019, amid Miwashiba's concerns of legal action after a donation stream.

## Creation and Development

Following the popularity of the original Danganronpa Re:Birth created by Miwashiba, a group of Western fans called the ReBirth Voices Team formed and created *Danganronpa Re:Birth Voices (DRRBV)* on April 7, 2017 , after receiving permission from Miwashiba to dub their project. Re:Birth Voices was originally formed as a voice acting blog where fans could ask the characters questions, and their voice actors would record and respond. This originally included skits, answering asks, and dubbing where possible. A Casting Call was opened soon after the creation of the blog. Throughout the months of April to May the roles were cast. On May 21, 2017, it was announced by the ReBirth Voices Team that they would be dubbing and releasing an audio drama of the first chapters class trial, after working on it in secret over the span of a month and a half.

The first trial was published on July 15, 2017, featuring the same characters and sprites created by Miwashiba as well as the groups own commissioned work and separate storyline. The first chapter was split into three separate parts, and has been viewed over 300,000 times total since release. Due to the popularity the first chapter received there would soon be a pivot in direction with the second chapter. Contrary to the audio-drama format of the first chapters trial, the second chapter would instead be in video series format and would feature custom-made sprites, Miwashiba's original work, fully dubbed scenes, and more.

The second chapter was produced throughout April 1, 2018, to April 10, 2019, and was split in five parts. During the production of the second chapter the ReBirth Voices team would occasionally publish parts of the '**Rebirth Talent Development Mode**', bonus episodes based on *Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony's* bonus mode: *Ultimate Talent Development Plan*. These episodes featured short clips of the characters interacting with each other, or reacting to scenarios. These episodes are considered to be non-canon to the main storyline.

### Cancellation

On July 22, 2019, it was announced that Re:Birth Voices would be cancelled amid Miwashiba's concerns of legal action being taken against them. These concerns started as the ReBirth Voices team had been using their YouTube channel as a mean to collect donations. This was the 'last straw' of sorts for a list of concerns Miwashiba had, and talked with the ReBirth Voices team about on occasion. Although the team tried to negotiate with Miwashiba, they decided to comply with their wishes and shut down production on Re:Birth Voices.

The Re:Birth Voices team were originally unsure about what to do with the unused assets and storyline created for the later chapters, but eventually decided to release what they had already created on their Discord server. This included the plotline, masterminds, future death order, unused and used artwork, and much more,
