Danganronpa Abridged
Episode 1
Self-Imposed
Our episode begins in a darkened room with our wonderful headmaster, Monokuma.
We then cut to behind the bear, where a man is currently struggling against some ropes.
Man: Please… No…
Monokuma: Denied.
Monokuma presses the button down, only for a large rocket engulf the man. Afterwards, we're shown a nice little title card.
Ride Jin Ride
The rocket then blasts off, tearing through a few floors of the building and eventually reaching space. There, gravity took hold and pulled the rocket down into the basement. When the smoke and dust finally cleared, the door opened up and revealed the bones of our person.
After, the camera then zooms in on Monokuma.
Monokuma: Let the games begin… Upupupu!
We then cut to a black screen with some text on it.
Unknown: Fate is a funny thing. It chooses some and shuns others. And here, it is what gathers the greatest together.
We're then shown a series of shots consisting of Sayaka singing, Leon hitting a ball, some magazines of Junko's face and a shot of Mondo's biker gang.
Unknown: I'm just a normal person.
We then shift downwards to our protagonist, Makoto Naegi, hoodie and all. Strangely, there appeared to be some fuzzy particles coming off of him.
Makoto: I won a lottery to get my invitation. In that way, I could be considered a gambler.
The 'luckster' took a deep breath and walked over a metal bar, only to freeze up as more fuzzy particles appeared.
The world around him began to swirl around and Makoto collapsed to the ground.
We then cut to a black screen.
Makoto: And that was when it all changed.
We are then shown a large vault door closing in the hallway.
Makoto: I'm just… unlucky.
We are then shown the title, followed by the chapter information.
Following that, we then cut to Makoto sitting at a desk in a classroom.
Makoto: Please don't kill me."
His gaze focused on a camera at the far end of the room.
Makoto: Not sure what the point is…
His attention then turned to the large metal plates bolted to the wall.
Makoto: We brought this down upon ourselves, didn't we?
He grabbed onto the bolt and attempted to twist it to no avail. After, his gaze focuses on a piece of paper. Makoto picked it up, giving it a quick glance.
If you're reading this,
There isn't time. But as long as you allow hope to live, you have nothing to fear.
-A friend
Makoto: Crap, I need to go.
The luckster made his way out the door, finding himself in a purple neon hallway. He casually made his way down, feeling as if something was off. But, Makoto was unable to figure out what that may possibly be.
We then cut to the doors of the gym.
Makoto: No time like the present.
He pushed the doors open, revealing fourteen students in the room.
Makoto: Hi?
A stoned guy then walks up to him.
Stoner: Want to have a beer with my demonic friends?
He is then revealed to be Yasuhiro Hagakure, the SHSL Stoner.
After him, a fat guy jumped in.
Fat guy: Truly, is this just great?
He then revealed to be Hifumi Yamada, the SHSL Bachelor.
Next, a loud person jumps out.
Loud person: You're late!
His title card then appears, revealing him to be Kiyotaka Ishimaru, the SHSL Motivator
We then cut to a strawberry blonde bimbo, who probably caused this mess.
Junko: Am I the first one to blame for you people? But are you different, Celeste?
Her title card then appears, even know everyone knows who it is.
We then cut to a nervous girl.
Nervous girl: Hi?
Her title card then appears, revealing the person as Chichiro Fujisaki, the SHSL Disguise Artist.
We then cut to a black-haired girl holding a combat knife.
Combat girl: Fuck this place.
The card then appears, revealing her as Mukuro Ikasaba, the SHSL Warrior.
We then cut to a shot of the wall.
Voice: I can wreck it!
We then zoom over to corn-cob head, who is showing off his gangsterness.
He was Mondo Oowada, the SHSL Outlaw. Well, according to his title card.
We then shift over to a redhead with a bloody shirt.
Redhead: Maybe I'll get to sing.
The title card then appears, revealing him to be Leon Kuwata, SHSL Moron.
Afterwards, a weird bubbly girl pops up.
Bubbly girl: Oh, like hi!
She is revealed to be Aoi Ashahina, the SHSL Aquatic Creature.
We then cut a beefcake.
Beefcake: I'm a girl, though.
She is then revealed to be Sakura Ohgami, the SHSL Brawler.
Beefcake: Let's fight.
We then shift over to Makoto's face.
Makoto: Uh… no.
The luckster stares at the people around him, only to focus on some overly cautious girl.
Overly cautious girl: Do you want to die?
She is then revealed to be Genocider Syo, the SHSL Murderer. Which, will totally not shoot be something that will backfire at a later point.
?: Just stop.
We then shift over to a rich douchebag.
Rich douchebag: You're annoying anyhow.
He is then revealed to be Byakuya Togami, the SHSL Douche.
Byakuya: What are you looking at?
Makoto: Nothing…
His gaze focuses on a cold girl dressed in lavender.
Cold girl: Fuck you.
As such, she's revealed to be Kyoko Kirigiri, the SHSL Sue.
Kirigiri: Do you want to bask in my sueness?
Makoto then shook his hands about.
Makoto: How about… no.
The luckster then walked away, looking down as he took a deep breath.
Unknown: You're Ludenburg-san, right?
Makoto looked up, finding a blue-haired idol staring at him.
Idol: Didn't we go to junior high together?
Makoto: Sayaka?
She was Sayaka Maizono, the SHSL Magical Idol.
Sayaka: It's good to see you again, Taeko.
Makoto took a slight step back.
Makoto: You too. Wait, you remember me?
Sayaka: Of course! How could I forget one of my friends?
Makoto: True…
Sayaka: maybe we can rekindle it.
Makoto stared blankly at her, attempting to decipher the meaning of Sayaka's smile. It reminded him of something, but he couldn't figure out what that could possibly be.
Byakuya: Cut the flirt.
Makoto: Why?
Byakuya slaps him with a leather glove.
Afterwards, we're treated to a shot of the podium, only to cut to Syo and Junko.
Syo: This isn't murderific!
Junko: It's happening again.
We then cut back to Makoto.
Makoto: Where did the phones go?
On cue, everyone searched for their phones.
We then shift over to Sakura.
Sakura: I must have accidently smashed it. Or it got stolen. Could be both.
We then cut to Yasuhiro.
Yasuhiro: Cheer up. Cthulhu brought me another twelve-pack!
Yasuhiro then holds a beer up.
Leon: Can I have one?
Yasuhiro: Totally!
Leon is then handed a beer can, only for the scene to zoom slightly out and reveal Syo.
Syo: Can I have one also?
The stoner then throws her a beer, only for the speakers to go off.
?: Testing. Testing. Welcome to this game.
Yasuhiro: See? That beer was great!
We are then treated to a close-up of Junko's face.
Junko: No, you moron!
We then zoom to the back of the gym, only to zoom towards the podium with Monokuma standing on it.
Makoto: A plush?
Monokuma: I am not a plush! I'm Monokuma, your principal!
We then cut to Hifumi and Junko.
Hifumi: It just talked. I love it already!
Junko only rolls her eyes and sighs.
Makoto: Principal?
Monokuma: Now that we go that out of the way… Bow for me!
On cue, Kiyotaka bows for the bear.
Syo: I guess I have to kill you then…
Monokuma: You're the greatest morons still alive, so I'll let you live here forever.
Mukuro: Wh-
Before she could finish her sentence, Aoi jumps in front of her.
Aoi: Explain yourself!
Monokuma: You're trapped here forever!
Leon: Wait, what?
Chichiro: No…
Monokuma: We have all the money in the world, so it isn't that hard.
Sayaka: Wait, what?
Junko: Just get to the point.
Makoto: That would explain the metal plates and stuff.
Monokuma: Yep!
Mukuro: Oh well. I can deal with this.
Monokuma: You don't want that? Then kill someone!
The robot then does a flip through the air, landing in the middle of the group.
Monokuma: I don't care about the method or the process, just do it.
He then holds a fish up, shaking it around for some reason.
Leon: Are you for real?
Sayaka: None of us will do that!
Hifumi: I just want sex! This is bullcrap!
Monokuma: Bullcrap?
The fish gets dropped, only for Monokuma to walk around.
Monokuma: Do whatever you want.
Mondo then walks up and grabbed hold of the bear, flinging him towards the wall. Monokuma then explodes, only reappear at his podium.
Mondo: Fuck you!
Monokuma: With pleasure.
Before we can see any outlaw-on-bear action, Monokuma teleports away.
Mukuro: Interesting.
Kiyotaka: FUCK!
Chichiro: This is just a joke, right?
Byakuya: Deal with it.
With that, their mutual school life begins.
The intro then plays.
Once that is finished, we come upon Sakura and Aoi examining the metal wall.
Aoi: Can you do it?
Sakura nods and punches the metal with a flaming fist.
Sakura: i guess not.
We then cut to Makoto turning his electroid on., revealing his profile.
Yasuhiro: Cthulhu would be impressed!
We then shift over to Aoi walking down some steps.
Aoi: No good.
Leon: Same here.
We then cut to Leon and Mondo messing with the podium. As such, Kiyotaka must shove himself in front of the scene.
Kiyotaka: Don't give up!
Aoi: Yeah!
Sakura: Ditto.
Leon: Let's search this place then.
We are then treated to a close-up of Byakuya's face.
Byakuya: Byakuya works alone.
Junko: I realize you always make it to the end and all, but that's still stupid.
Byakuya: Fuck you, bitch.
The douche then walks away, only for Mondo to step in front of him.
Mondo: That isn't how we're going to do things around here, is it?
Byakuya: Deal with it.
He then pulled his whacking glove out.
Mondo: Are you sure about that?
The outlaw slammed his fists together.
Makoto then ran up to them.
Makoto: There's no use to this…
Mondo: Don't you dare.
Makoto took a step back, only for Mondo's fist to connect.
Everything then went black. When his vision did return, he froze.
Instead of the hoodie and pants he had worn yesterday, a black lolita outfit covered his body.
Makoto: What happened to me?
He looked right, finding Sayaka sitting beside him.
Sayaka: Celeste, you're alright!
Makoto jumped up, getting a better look at himself. Well, herself was probably a better way to put it.
Of the little exposed skin she had exposed was dyed white, with a maid bonnet holding two black 'drills' of hair that flowed down to her thighs. Finishing off her look, was a pair of black stockings and red high heels.
Celeste took a deep breath, turning her attention to Sayaka as she got up out of bed.
Celeste: Sayaka…
The gambler leaned towards her friend, just about ready to kiss the idol.
Sayaka: Just do it.
Celeste embraced the magical girl as the mastermind watched on.
Celeste: I thought you would never ask.
The two then embrace each other as the mastermind watches from afar.
'Mastermind': God, I hate lebians.
Sayaka: Since middle school, my esper powers have grown. How about you?
Celeste: My gambling skills have grown as well.
Sayaka: I have an idea.
Celeste: As in?
Sayaka: Let's work together then!
Celeste: Yeah!
We then cut to the lunchroom.
Aoi: Celeste, are you alright?
Celeste: Yeah.
Celeste and Sayaka sit themselves down at the table.
Mondo: Sorry about that.
Celeste: It's alright.
Mukuro: We're all here now.
Kiyotaka: LET'S START THEN!
What followed was a montage of people doing stuff.
Junko: It won't matter.
Silence fills the room as everyone stares towards the 'despair'.
Junko: Do you know how many times I have been forced to watch powerless within this game? Do you know how many times each of you have done the same? How about the amount of times 'it' have played this game? Once you know that, you'll properly understand.
Two days then blissfully passed, with nothing of any note.
Chichiro: Is this it?
Aoi: Don't give in. We'll figure it out! The cops we'll rescue us!
Monokuma then appears.
Monokuma: Just murder someone already!
Everyone stared blankly at him.
Monokuma: Here's your motive!
We then cut to the A/V room, where a screen hung at the back.
The truth will come to those that kill…
With that the episode ends…
