Everyone has a past.
Events in their lives that shaped them into who they are today.
Everyone has an important memory.
A moment in their lives that left a lasting impression on them.
Everyone strives for something.
Whether it be success, money, respect, or acceptance.
Everyone has secrets. Everyone has fears. Everyone has insecurities.
Things we would rather keep hidden from the rest of the world.
Everyone has a story. But not everyone's story has been told.
Some are obscured by the ravages of time.
Some are brutally ended before they have a chance to be told.
And countless others are forgotten, destroyed or simply ignored for one reason or another.
Here are seventeen stories from seventeen kids.
Each is unique. All are connected.
Centered around one world, one school, one catastrophe.
An Idol.
A Baseball Player.
A Programmer.
A Gang Leader.
A Hall Monitor.
An Otaku.
A Gambler.
A Fighter.
A Shaman.
A Swimmer.
A Writer.
A Serial Killer.
An Heir.
A Detective.
A Soldier.
A Model.
And an otherwise average Luckster.
These are their lives.
These are their struggles.
These are their Recollections.
Do you want to learn their stories?
Author's Note: Here it is; my next series, Recollections. This is just the prologue, the real thing will begin next Friday, with Sayaka Maizono's tale. This will be a loooooong project, and as such, this will be my only concrete upload date for it. It will take time to research each character's personalities and backgrounds to write a convincing narration. Having heacanons for all these characters is one thing, writing them with their voices is another. Speaking of headcanons, keep in mind that this is just one big collection of them. You are free to disagree with whatever I write, and I encourage you to let me know of your own headcanons for the Dangan Ronpa cast. Don't take it personally though. But who knows? You might come to view some of the cast in a slightly different light.
As always, happy reading!
