Huh? You know him, don't you? He was in the Jabberwock Island killing game.
![](5-Himiko(18).png)
Th-That's not what we mean. What are *you* doing!?
![](6-Tsumugi(18).png)
What am I doing...? I'm just
cosplaying.
![](7-Shuichi(03).png)
Cosplaying?
![](9-Mastermind(104).png)
But it's not just normal cosplay! Cuz I can perfectly replicate the character!
![](10-Mastermind(156).png)
Check it out! Even my voice sounds exactly the same!
![](11-Maki(24).png)
Is Junko Enoshima also...
![](19-Himiko(09).png)
A number of characters?
![](20-Shuichi(18).png)
How can she cosplay as students of Hope's Peak Academy!? Because Tsumugi told us...
![](22-Tsumugi(08).png)
Lately, some people prefer to cosplay as non-fictional characters, which is unforgivable...
![](23-Tsumugi(22).png)
It's so unforgivable that I break out in cospox if I even attempt it...
![](25-Mastermind(055).png)
So then...what does this mean?
![](7-Shuichi(03).png)
...What?
![](26-Mastermind(092).png)
If what I said was the truth, then Hope's Peak Academy was...
If Tsumugi can cosplay as them...there's only one possibility.
I had the biggest fucking smile on my face when I realized where this ending was going.
![](32-Maki(26).png)
...Fictional?
![](33-Mastermind(096).png)
The Biggest, Most Awful, Most Tragic Event in Human History never happened... Hope's Peak, the Future Foundation, and the Remnants of Despair do not exist...
![](34-Mastermind(152).png)
Because it's all fiction. None of it actually happened in the real world.
![](37-Shuichi(02).png)
Dangan...ronpa...?
![](38-Keebo(07).png)
What!? What are you even...talking about?
![](39-Mastermind(177).png)
What? You've never heard of Danganronpa? We're all...characters in it.
![](40-Mastermind(171).png)
That's right! Me, that nasty pig barf, and everyone else are all fictional.
![](42-Mastermind(045).png)
Nope! Cuz it's fiction! Doesn't exist in the real world!
![](43-Shuichi(24).png)
Wh-What...?
![](44-Mastermind(050).png)
Isn't that surprising!?
![](42-Mastermind(045).png)
Yeah... Up till now, you thought fiction was fact.
![](46-Mastermind(099).png)
This whole Danganronpa story was just stuffed into your memories.
![](47-Mastermind(170).png)
For that reason, you all believed that work of fiction was, in fact, reality.
![](48-Mastermind(181).png)
And that's how we put on a cosplay performance for everyone to see!
![](49-Mastermind(182).png)
A cosplay performance of the whole wide, Danganronpa world!
This time, we cycle through a highlight reel of the first two games.
![](54-Mastermind(134).png)
It'd be kinda lame if that was all the big bad mastermind could do...
![](55-Mastermind(041).png)
I can do far more than that... I can cosplay the world itself!
![](56-Mastermind(053).png)
So if you want to make me your enemy...
![](32-Maki(26).png)
Danganronpa...itself?
![](20-Shuichi(18).png)
B-But...why? Why would you do this? Why make us think it's real
![](59-Mastermind(164).png)
This is the world of Danganronpa, y'know? No shit we're playin' the killing game.
![](60-Mastermind(147).png)
But it's not just any killing game. It's a killing game that takes place in the real world, propped up by fiction.
![](11-Maki(24).png)
But...if it's fiction... If everything...isn't real...
MAKI: The world outside...is fine, right?
![](44-Mastermind(050).png)
How did you like that scene!? Our staff worked very hard on it!
![](38-Keebo(07).png)
...Staff?
![](65-Mastermind(093).png)
There's no need to worry about the people backstage!
![](67-Mastermind(085).png)
The world hasn't been destroyed.
![](68-Himiko(23).png)
Reallyl? It's not destroyed!? Then we can all go home and
![](69-Mastermind(105).png)
Nah, that ain't happenin'.
![](70-Himiko(33).png)
Nyeh!?
![](72-Mastermind(106).png)
I told you that ain't happenin', you dumb sea urchin-headed...wait, that's me!
![](73-Shuichi(28).png)
Monokuma, what's going on?
![](74-Monokuma(11).png)
Do you really wanna know?
![](76-Monokuma(01).png)
The walls of this academy are your world now. The outside world is of no concern to you.
![](70-Himiko(33).png)
Wh-What? Who are these people!?
![](85-Mastermind(114).png)
They've all been watching this killing game transpire.
![](86-Mastermind(125).png)
Of course, those you see here are only a fraction of our total viewers.
...Watching us?
![](20-Shuichi(18).png)
So this was all a show... This whole killing game!
![](89-Mastermind(078).png)
Yeah, everyone in this whole peaceful world watches this show.
![](73-Shuichi(28).png)
Peaceful...world?
![](90-Mastermind(065).png)
ThThe outside world is p-peace itself. There's n-no despair or wars, a-and...
![](20-Shuichi(18).png)
W-Wait, why would a peaceful world need a game like th
![](95-Mastermind(127).png)
It is so very peaceful... And so, it is so very boring.
![](85-Mastermind(114).png)
With so much peace, people have become bored. They need stimulation...
![](96-Mastermind(167).png)
We created this
Ultimate Real Fiction so Danganronpa could fulfill that need.
CHIAKI: Everyone loves the killing games... This killing game is for everyone... So it's
everyone's killing school semester.
![](43-Shuichi(24).png)
We...we were forced to play...some fictional killing game?
![](108-Maki(44).png)
What is this...?
![](109-Mastermind(163).png)
Can't you tell? It's the
title of the current Danganronpa you guys are doing.
![](110-Mastermind(153).png)
A testament to the unquenchable thirst this blood-soaked world has for Danganronpa...
![](38-Keebo(07).png)
...What do you mean?
![](112-Himiko(32).png)
Huh...? How long has it gone on...?
![](113-Mastermind(173).png)
Did you forget what season of Danganronpa this is? You guys are dumber than ants.
![](26-Mastermind(092).png)
Shuichi...what do you think?
![](114-Shuichi(09).png)
What?
![](117-Mastermind(074).png)
Mmhmhm... And if that's not enough of a hint, just feast your eyes below my belt.
What killing game is this...? What number Danganronpa is this...?
Then, this killing game is...
MONOKUMA: And now, we're in the 53rd season of Danganronpa!
![](132-Mastermind(101).png)
What, did the letter in there throw you off? Well, I guess that happens.
![](54-Mastermind(134).png)
It was supposed to be a hint... But...whatever... I'm over it...
![](135-Mastermind(081).png)
Since this is the 53rd season, one would expect to see a multitude of characters...
![](42-Mastermind(045).png)
But you only have memories from the first two, so you wouldn't recognize any others.
![](136-Mastermind(124).png)
That's why I've limited myself to only cosplaying as Hope's Peak characters.
![](43-Shuichi(24).png)
The 53rd Danganronpa...
![](34-Mastermind(152).png)
Trapped in a fictional, Danganronpa-inspired world, and forced to play the killing game...
![](138-Mastermind(097).png)
That is what the world desired from you.
![](55-Mastermind(041).png)
So yes, I'm the mastermind! But the *real*
mastermind forcing you to do this is...
ME!
![](43-Shuichi(24).png)
The whole world...is the real mastermind?
![](55-Mastermind(041).png)
The reason I made this world... The reason you guys did the killing game...
![](56-Mastermind(053).png)
It's all because the outside world wants it, you know?
![](38-Keebo(07).png)
...Project?
![](143-Mastermind(083).png)
Whaaaat? You don't know what that is? Is your brain leaking oil or something?
![](39-Mastermind(177).png)
The ones managing this killing game aren't psychos like the Remnants of Despair...
![](144-Mastermind(086).png)
They're literal managers! Literally!
That's the last one! We have a full set now.
Sorry I couldn't put that in the video. I recorded the trial without sound the first time and saved over the file like a dumbass.
![](154-Mastermind(059).png)
Yeah! The company that makes Danganronpa is called
Team Danganronpa.
![](65-Mastermind(093).png)
You guys are behind in your studies! The audience knew the answer right away!
![](155-Mastermind(184).png)
It's in the title credits at the start, too.
I'm proud to be a part of this longstanding SA tradition.
A collage of shots from the game scrolls by.
TSUMUGI: We make the finest killing entertainment! Everyone enjoys our work ohso-much! And our newest project is...
Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony!
![](173-Shuichi(37).png)
You created an entire fictional world...to make us do this fictional killing gamel?
