Danganronpa: The Animation to Premiere This Summer

posted on by Karen Ressler

The April issue of Kadokawa Shoten's Newtype magazine is revealing on Sunday that Danganronpa Kibō no Gakuen to Zetsubō no Kōkōsei The Animation is slated to premiere this summer.

The upcoming anime adapts Spike Chunsoft's PlayStation Portable action-adventure game. Persona 4 The Animation's Seiji Kishi is directing the series, which will feature the same cast as the game. Makoto Uezu is in charge of series composition and scripts, and Lerche is animating the project.

The story follows a group of high school students, each with a different exceptional talent, who are locked inside a school and told that the only way to escape is to kill another student without getting caught. After a murder, the remaining students must hold a trial with their lives on the line to find out who the killer is.

A manga series based on the anime will begin serialization on March 26.
