After the First Tragedy, caused by the 77th class of the world began rebuilding. But as with every tragedy, people became desensitized to it. And so, a group of students of Hope's Peak Academy were driven into despair by someone unnamed, lost to history. 

''They began spreading this despair throughout the world, but even this murder wasn't enough to keep the despair strong, in themselves and in the rest of the people. So they set up a series of killing games, to be televised. The 53rd killing game almost ended the legacy of Team Danganronpa.''

''In fact, it actually did. If not for Tsumugi Shirogane, who had been smart enough to brainwash one of her subordinates into despair. This student was able to join Hope's Peak, and took your class, the 183rd class, down into despair. ''Ian Sawyer, the Ultimate Trapper, a mass murderer, joined the Third Ultimate Despair as well, for fun. 

''But your Despair was too self-destructive. And you recognized that. You decided to trap yourselves in a digital killing game using the Neo World technology, and kill each other in the name of Despair without actually dying. ''

''But something went wrong, and some of you are dying for real. Anything for Despair, though. You aren't upset.''
