## Council of Global Controllers

### Novel

*Danganronpa: Togami* Volume 1

**The Council of Global Controllers** (世界の選択を選択する会) were a secret organization that were mentioned in Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc and expanded upon in Danganronpa: Togami. They are a group that totaled thirty-three members, including the likes of Byakuya Togami and Sonia Nevermind. Like their name suggests, they were the true rulers of the world that act when they feel the world is in danger. When the call is given, they all meet together at the Church of Bones in Prague in order to discuss what should be done before secretly guiding the world to safety.

## Description

Blue Ink was unsure when exactly the council was formed, but believes it must have been centuries ago. Throughout the years, when ever the world was believed to be in serious danger and need of guidance, the council would call a meeting in order to discuss on what to do. These meetings were always held in the Church of Bones in Prague. Of their recent iteration, Hope's Peak students, Sonia Nevermind and Byakuya Togami had joined the council, with the latter being the most recent one to join. Their first meeting following Byakuya's recruitment was for the Despair Novel, which had been the cause of civil unrest thanks to it spreading the Despair Disease amongst its readers. Of those attending the meeting, Byakuya brought along his secretary, Blue Ink to accompany him, whilst Mukuro Ikusaba was hired by one of the other member as a bodyguard.

However, unbeknownst to the other thirty-two members, Sonia had become a member of Despair High School during her time in Hope's Peak Academy. With Despair High School only wanting their organization to be the one to rule from the shadows, they set up a trap for the council. With Sonia (who had opted not to show up to the meeting) giving the location of the council to the members of her organization, Despair High School personnel ambushed the Church of Bones and slaughtered almost everyone there. Byakuya was knocked out in the chaos and had his clothes stolen off of him, aside from his glasses. As such, it was up to Blue Ink to carry him out. Given her status as Despair High School, Mukuro was left unharmed and had taken to camping out in the forest after losing her script. As for Sonia, she would go on to confront a towel wearing Byakuya later on, under the pretense of apprehending him for causing the World Domination Proclamation.

With the majority of the council dead, the Council of Global Controllers were effectively dismantled. Due to the K2K System's unreality effects, its unknown how much of the council's history and demise can be considered actual fact.

During the second chapter of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, Byakuya mentions the council as running the world from the shadows during a talk with Makoto Naegi.
