** In addition, alternative executions for Chiaki and Gundham are also included with them: Chiaki’s alternative execution would have her on a board game with all the titles being electric, and she is eventually killed by a spear, while Gundham’s alternative execution would have him running in a hamster wheel, running from a giant ball. He is then crushed to death by the ball, as he smiles at his 4 Dark Devas, before finally dying.

** Hajime’s execution, “Scratch de Hinata”, would have him printed on a lottery ticket, as Monokuma scratches him away with a coin. After he finds out he lost, he simply throws the paper away, getting rid of Hajime for good.

* Although the plans for the entire cast’s executions are unknown, there *are* plenty of fanmade executions for a good chunk of the non-killer cast, listed as follows:
** Sonia’s execution, “Princess Sonia”, would involve her being used as a Snow White puppet. Eventually, when she eats the poison apple, she does not wake up, likely due to the poison. The execution ends with a happy ending where the stepmother - portrayed by Monokuma - livesHappilyEverAfter.
** Mahiru’s execution, “Real Photo”, would have her being thrown into a desert, with a photo album with her name on it. Said photographs show Mahiru in the desert, and as Mahiru goes through them, a white hand clamps her neck. The final photo shows her on the ground dead, and a camera appears. As she tries to throw it away, another white hand appears behind her without her noticing, and it’s safe to say that she dies to the hands strangling her to death.
** Kazuichi’s execution, “Underground Travels”, would involve him being forced into a drilling machine, as it goes deeper into the center of the earth, before falling into a tub of acid, causing Kazuichi and the machine to melt. Way more brutal compared to the others.
** Fuyuhiko’s execution, “Best Battle”, would involve him hiding in the midst of a gang battle. A shadow resembling Peko then appears, as Fuyuhiko runs to it…only to be shot fatally. Eventually, “Peko” is revealed to be a Monokuma in disguise, as Fuyuhiko dies with a regretful smile.
** Nagito’s execution, “Rope Master”, would involve him being in a circus act. Monokuma then cuts ropes from a platform, and due to Nagito’s luck, the platform stays afloat. But do you really think Monokuma would just give up? Nope. Instead, he lights the platform on fire, as Nagito gets burned alive.
** In addition, alternative executions for Chiaki and Gundham are also included with them: Chiaki’s alternative execution would have her on a board game with all the titles being electric, and she is eventually killed by a spear, while Gundham’s alternative execution would have him running in a hamster wheel, running from a giant ball.

* Monokuma presents the chapter's motive for murder: A crappy arcade game called Twilight Syndrome. It sounds ridiculous on the surface until you play it, and the game is rendered in PS1-era graphics and models, with the characters in a jarring semi-realistic style compared to the ''Danganronpa'' series' cartoony anime style. The main characters discover a murdered student, but none of them report it to the authorities out of fear that they'll be suspected. Near the end, one of the girls is stalked by an offscreen threat ominiously saying "I'll never forgive you". The game ends with that girl's corpse found by her friends, which is an edited real-life photo. While Hajime is understandably confused about this since this was supposed to be based on real-life events he hasn't heard of nor would have remembered since those were part of his missing memories, Fuyuhiko was the first to discover the true ending. His prize? Photos of said events which revealed to him the first victim was ''his little sister''.

** Then there's [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever giant Junko]], who appears with very little warning and speaks through a human-sized cell phone whose screen displays ''another'' Junko. She attempts to trick the survivors into accepting her offer of "Graduation", which would allow them to keep their memories of the game world and even bring the "dead" kids back to life...as in, their bodies become vessels for the AI Junko. And the survivors would have no clue, because all the data Junko has compiled on them would allow her to imitate them ''perfectly''.

*** Looking closer at the pictures of the horrendous actions committed by Ultimate Despair, not only does it seem like Fuyuhiko transplanted Junko's eye into himself and Akane starved herself to skin and bones, a person wearing a hat like Kazuichi's is seen gunning down a bunch of people and the hair of the parents about to be experimented on (especially the mother) bear a strong resemblance to Nagito.
*** Actually, since Nagito's parents died when he was little, it may make more sense for them to be the parents of someone else who'd expressed their affection for them, like Teruteru, Mahiru and Gundham in the case of their mother or Hiyoko in the case of her father.

* While Peko's sparkling justice performance is generally campy, it's very unnerving when she says she "did nothing wrong" in regards to beating Mahiru to death and using her corpse as a doorstopper. It gets worse when she drops the sparking justice act taking off her mask and showcasing a very creepy smirk/grimace as she explains that she's a tool and therefore Fuyuhiko is the killer, the smirk combined with how cold Peko sounds is downright frightening and a massive contrast from her usually sweet and quiet personality. Thankfully after she's voted as the killer she drops the smirk and returns to her usual quiet self and is repentant over Mahiru showing at the very least that her apparent indifference towards her crime was an act.
* While he's far from pleasant in the first chapter, Fuyuhiko's behavior throughout the second trial becomes extremely unnerving. He goes batshit insane throughout the trial, mouthing off at others with heavily abusive and murderous remarks, gleefully smirking while framing Hiyoko for Mahiru's murder, making BlatantLies so stubbornly, and shouting like a murderous mentally unstable psychopath at Hajime by saying the sword would've been left in the shower room. Even after it's proven that Peko got the sword using the bag, Fuyuhiko still goes batshit insane nearly frothing at the mouth until Peko tells him "It's fine.".

I think Fuyuhiko's unnerving behaviour is more of a chapter 2 thing than a general thing, so i've moved it to chapter 2.


* Fuyuhiko's behavior in the first and second trials. He goes bastshit insane through each of them, mouthing off at others with heavily abusive and murderous remarks, making BlatantLies so stubbornly, and shouting like a murderous mentally unstable psychopath at Hajime by saying the sword would've been left in the showeroom. Even after it's proven that Peko got the sword using the bag, Fuyuhiko still goes batshit insane until Peko tells him "It's fine.". Also as the second trial shows, his constant threats to "fucking kill" anyone who even slightly annoys him weren't bullshit as he was perfectly willing to beat Mahiru to death for pissing him off. While he initially seems like a joke rival compared to the more dangerous Nagito, trial 2 fully showcases how unstable he could be. Thankfully he becomes far more pleasant after this attitude directly kills Mahiru and indirectly kills Peko and to a lesser extent Hiyoko.



* While Peko's sparkling justice performance is generally campy, it's very unnerving when she says she "did nothing wrong" in regards to beating Mahiru to death and using her corpse as a doorstopper.

* Someone was [[SarcasmMode kind enough]] to create [[https://imgur.com/a/AWziB some concepts]] for how the group might have looked as Remnants of Despair. Even ''Chiaki'' got one.
** And if that wasn't enough, [[http://sayer-raider.tumblr.com/post/166036269817/jinjojess-remnants-of-despair-concept-sketches these are official concept arts]] of the Remnants of Despair from ''Anime/Danganronpa3TheEndOfHopesPeakHighSchool''.
* A [[UrbanLegendOfZelda (debunked)]] rumor started going around late in 2020 claiming that Hiyoko's murder was originally going to be different. How different, exactly? According to the rumor, she was to be killed by Teruteru, who would then ''cook her remains and [[TheSecretOfLongPorkPies serve her to the others at the party without them knowing]]''. In some variants, it would've also given Akane and "Byakuya" a fatal dose of food poisoning, killing them during the trial. While the rumor was ultimately discredited, it's still a chilling thought.

* Monokuma presents the chapter's motive for murder: A crappy arcade game called Twilight Syndrome. It sounds ridiculous on the surface until you play it, and the game is rendered in PS1-era graphics and models, with the characters in a jarring semi-realistic style compared to the ''Danganronpa'' series' cartoony anime style. The main characters discover a murdered student, but none of them report it to the authorities out of fear that they'll be suspected. Near the end, one of the girls is stalked by an offscreen threat ominiously saying "I'll never forgive you". The game ends with that girl's corpse found by her friends, which is an edited real-life photo. While Hajime is understandably confused about this since this was supposed to be based on real-life events he hasn't heard of, this was a huge shock to the people whose tragic events were turned into this game once they discovered the true ending.

** It gets even worse come TheReveal in Chapter 6. The Despair Disease simply reverted her back to her Ultimate Despair personality. Meaning this is what Mikan was ''actually like'' while she was a member. She murdered one person for no reason other than "reciprocating" Junko's love, and brutally killed another just for being a witness, all the while going LaughingMad and showing no remorse whatsoever. If she's this bad, imagine what the other students were like at the time...

Don't know how I missed this one on my correction spree (The fact is that the uterus thing is a mistranslation)


** Some of the descriptions of what Ultimate Despair did to show their devotion to Junko. One turned in their own parents to her to be experimented on. One replaced his own eyeball with one of Junko's, and another is implied to have tried the same with Junko's womb or ovaries. Hajime is so horrified at that last one that he screams at the speaker to stop before he can finish his sentence.

*** Going farther with implications, it's very possible that Mikan was the one who tried to implant Junko's ovaries. She was shown to be extremely in love with Junko and during her despair scene, it's not a hard jump to make...

* While Monokuma is still his usual self in this game, him appearing in Jabberwock Island is not a good sign at all, especially since he turns Usami into "Monomi", and radically changes the rules and dynamic of the island.
** Him saying "Long time no see guys!" might be an illusion to not seeing the player in a while, but it's very sinister {{Main/Foreshadowing}} about who the classmates really are.

* Monomi's initial execution. Seeing such a nice character getting gunned down like that is horrific and heartbreaking. While she does reappear no worse for wear, it certainly establishes that Monokuma is '''NOT''' messing around.

!!Chapter 4:
* The motive of this chapter must be one of the cruelest in the entire franchise based on its sadistic nature. After being knocked out, the remaining students end up in the Funhouse, a cheery building. But there is a catch: they'll be locked in here with no food until a murder is commited. Seeing everyone gradually losing their energy and hope, until they're barely able to even move (your movement speed is reduced to a crawl during this chapter) is not pretty. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mESVTvnIVnw normal, cheerful Free Time music]] getting replaced with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VMw_1-gyE4 RE: All All Apologies]] doesn't help.
