Intro

Do you want to start with Danganronpa titles in the right order? This guide is here to help you with that.

Anime in order

Warning:

If you watch the anime alone, you will get major spoilers for other games. Proceed at your own risk. I don't recommend it, but the choice is yours.

Anime titles in order:

1.
''Danganronpa: The Animation''

2.
''Danganronpa 3: Future Arc''
+
''Danganronpa 3: Despair Arc''
Note: Watch 'Future' episode 1, then 'Despair' episode 1. After that, 'Future' episode 2 + 'Despair' episode 2. Continue this way for all episodes. They are all complimentary to each other.

3.
''Danganronpa 3: Hope Arc''

4.
''Danganronpa 2.5 Nagito Komaeda Sekai no Hakaimono'' (aka. ''Super Danganronpa 2.5: Nagito Komaeda and the Destroyer of the World'').

Anime + Games in order

Game: ''Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc''.
Anime: ''Danganronpa: Kibou no Gakuen to Zetsubou no Koukousei The Animation'' (aka. ''Danganronpa: The Animation'').

Game: ''Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair''.
Note: There is no anime adaptation for this.

Game: ''Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls''.
A few characters from Ultra Despair Girls appear in Future, so it may benefit you to play this first, but it's not a dealbreaker to skip.
Note: While the game is set in between Danganronpa 1 & 2, because of spoilers you should play it 3rd (the way I ranked it here).

4.1

(Optional)
Game: ''Danganronpa: Unlimited Battle''.
Japan exclusive. For iOS and Android devices
Note: The game was only available for 9 months, before online servers were turned off on November 13th, 2015 and the game was removed from both iOS and Android app stores. The game is not obligatory to experience the story in chronological order.

4.2

(Optional)
Game: ''Cyber Danganronpa VR The Class Trial''.
It is a virtual reality demo of ''Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc'', where players take part in a class trial similar to those of the original games.
Platform: PS4. Game is a demo.

Anime: ''Danganronpa 3: The End of Kibougamine Gakuen - Mirai-hen'' (aka. ''Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School - Future Arc'').
+
Anime: ''Danganronpa 3: The End of Kibougamine Gakuen - Zetsubou-hen'' (aka. ''Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School - Despair Arc'').

How to watch them:
Watch Mirai-hen episode 1, then Zetsubou-hen episode 1. After that, Mirai-hen episode 2 + Zetsubou-hen episode 2. Continue this way for all episodes. They are all complimentary to each other.

Anime: ''Danganronpa 3: The End of Kibougamine Gakuen - Kibou-hen'' (aka. ''Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School - Hope Arc'').

I wanna start watching and playing this series. Can anybody confirm if this guide it's updated?

Oh, and awesome guide btw

About Ultra Despair Girls, I'd recommend watching a playthrough instead of playing it because the gameplay sucks. You can find playthroughs without commentaries on YouTube, both with English and Japanese audio. You can just skip through a lot of the repetitive gameplay to get to the story.

You can skip it entirely if you want, but it does have a really good story. It also gives great character development for an already established character from the previous games.

Is there somewhere I can read the manga online?

Eiríni 11 Mar, 2021 @ 10:00am

@Daniyel_07 It's a really good game. Despite not being necessary, it's absolutely worth playing.

If anyone's wondering about Ultra Despair Girls I heard you can skip it and it's not really important

xHolzi 3 Jan, 2021 @ 11:25pm
