So what happened to the 78th class if it's not to spoilery? (Like specifics on who murdered who and that stuff)

//i actually wrote notes on how the game goes in this au so thanks for asking!

notes under the cut (warning, it’s a lot to read, and also equivalent to rambling, not all of this is entirely solid yet and there may be holes in logic compared to the original, I’ll also include a short explanation of what happens after the game ends)

After The Incident, the 78th class agrees to barricade themselves into Hope’s Peak High, to avoid the riots outside. In doing this, they also trap themselves with Ultimate Despairs, Mukuro, Junko, and Ishimaru. Junko and Ishimaru start planning for the Killing School Life.

Shortly before beginning the game, Ishimaru executes Junko and Jin Kirigiri in a fit of despair in front of the 78th class, then uses Yasuke Matsuda’s memory removal method to wipe everyone’s memories.

The big difference here is that there is no Junko impostor, and Mukuro participates as herself, with all memories wiped.

Also, Ishimaru participates and acts as if he’s just another victim instead of barricading himself in the data room like Junko does in the original.

The motives all remain the same, The videos of everybody’s captives, (including Ishimaru’s, and for Mukuro it’s a video of Junko’s execution), the embarrassing secrets, the money, and instead of the revelation of Sakura being a mole, (since she dies in the first case), Monokuma spreads lies to make everyone believe there is a traitor, when really, there isn’t.

(I won’t be going into the absolute evidence details, only major events like character interactions and crossings with the canon story)

In the first case, Mukuro kills Sakura.

Mukuro is threatened by the video of Junko, and wants to escape the school immediately to find out what happened to her sister. Meanwhile, The mastermind blackmails Sakura into killing someone, and she and Mukuro have a chance meeting in the student dorm area after everyone had gone to bed.

While this happens, Sayaka is still making her plan to kill Leon and has switched rooms with Naegi already.

Mukuro kills Sakura and hides the evidence of the murder, but leaves the body in the hallway so everybody is put under suspicion, and shortly after, Leon goes to visit Sayaka, but sees the body and panics, running to his room and waiting out the night instead of seeing Sayaka.

The night goes on until morning comes, and Ishimaru wakes up earlier than everybody else to go to the breakfast meeting, and finds Sakura’s body leaned up against the wall. He goes to alert everybody else about the discovery, and eventually the body discovery announcement goes off.

The trial later on ends with Kyoko and Naegi dragging the truth out of Leon and successfully indicting Mukuro.

Mukuro is executed.

The execution i thought up for her involves her being carried by soldiers with Monokuma heads to a room for execution by firing squad. She manages to break free of their grip and kills them with a knife hidden in her boot, and runs for a door that reads exit, only to find a long concrete corridor, with tall walls. She attempts to climb them, only to find that she can’t. Meanwhile, more Monokuma faced soldiers come into the room, grab her, and blindfold her, facing her forward to a firing squad. She gives one last smile as she remembers Junko and how this might be filling her with despair right now. The Monokumas shoot their rifles, one hitting her square in the head, killing her instantly.

In case 2, Asahina is depressed and upset over the death of Sakura, who she was just getting to become friends with.

Eventually, Monokuma reveals the dirty secret motive.

In this timeline, Ishimaru happens to be in the locker room around the time that Mondo would have lost it and killed Chihiro, and because of this, Chihiro isn’t murdered.

Instead, Celes is threatened by the dirty secrets, and blackmails Hifumi into helping her plan a murder in the pool area. Asahina overhears their plans and goes to the meeting place to talk the two of them out of it, claiming that nobody else should have to die like Sakura and Mukuro did.

Celes doesnt listen, and Asahina in a dire attempt to save everybody from Celes and Hifumi, slams Celes into the pool and kills her.

Hifumi, meanwhile, is waiting for Celes to carry out their plan, and grows worried when she doesn’t meet with him, so he goes to check on her and finds her dead body floating below the surface of the pool.

Asahina is found as the culprit, and is executed.

For Case 3, Monokuma reveals the money motive, and nobody is biting.

Hagakure and Leon are socializing and hanging out in the rec room, and Leon makes a joke along the lines of, “I may actually kill someone if we have to stay like this any longer” and Hagakure takes it seriously. The two have a massive misunderstanding and Hagakure threatens to tell everyone else that Leon intends to kill someone, and Leon becomes deadly serious, threatening Hagakure with a nearby Monokuma bottle. Hagakure retaliates by hitting Leon on the head with another one of the bottles, causing him to pass out, while Hagakure runs out of the room.

Wondering why Leon didn’t follow after him, He goes back to check and finds Leon dead on the ground.

Panicked, he takes some of Leon’s blood and writes a fake dying message pointing to Mondo.

Mondo does pass by the rec room and sees the body and the writing left on the ground, and goes inside to smear it so nobody can read what it says, then leaves, so nobody wrongfully suspects him.

Later on, Makoto and Chihiro go to the rec room and find the body, as the body discovery announcement goes off.

Hagakure is found guilty and executed.

In case 4, the remaining survivors theorize that there may be a traitor in their midst, and Monokuma lies, saying there is a traitor, when really, they are already dead (Sakura was the traitor and died in the first case).

Sayaka, who only got by without killing anybody by hanging out with Leon (who is dead now) and Makoto (who is now spending most of his time with Kyoko) plans a murder to get out of the school.

She decides to try and kill Chihiro, as he’s the weakest of the survivors, and writes a note to him, asking him to meet in the warehouse.

Her plan goes similarly to the first case of the original game, she waits around a corner with a kitchen knife waiting for her victim. Chihiro ends up being late after running into Mondo and Ishimaru in the hallways, while Hifumi goes there to look for more anime merch to put in his room.

Sayaka ends up killing Hifumi by accident, thinking it was Chihiro.

Sayaka is later found guilty, and executed.

Case 5 and 6 go almost exactly like the original game cases, the difference this time being that instead of Mukuro, Kyoko suspects that Junko is the mastermind, as she’s ever appeared in front of them, when in fact, Junko has been dead from the beginning and stowed away into the body freezers, and her body is used at the crime scene with the white coat and mask.

Ishimaru originally put on the mask and attacked Makoto in his room, being chased off by Kyoko, who was locked out of her room by Byakuya. Later on, Ishimaru, Chihiro, Mondo, Byakuya, and Toko are in the gym taking Monokuma apart, while Kyoko is missing and Makoto is sleeping.

Junko’s body appears in the garden with the mask and coat, and the bomb that Genocider Syo activates burns the body beyond recognition.

The trial goes unfinished and the group accuses Makoto, sending him to his execution, but Alter Ego, who Makoto, Chihiro, and Kyoko planted into the school’s computer system, stops the execution, sending Makoto to the trash room where Kyoko rescues him.

Later, everybody begins exploring the school for the final investigation and the final trial. In the trial, they find that Junko was originally a mastermind but was killed, so the only one who could be the mastermind was someone in the room with them, as Kyoko found a laptop pointing to Monokuma being an AI like Chihiro’s AI, Alter Ego. (This is the Junko AI that Kamakura later manages to plant into the Neo World Program in SDR2)

Everyone begins to suspect each other until the evidence leads them to suspect Ishimaru, Mondo goes into an outrage at this and tries to defend Ishimaru, until eventually Ishimaru admits to being the mastermind, and to killing Junko.

He attempts to fill everyone with despair at the thought of being released into the outside world, and it works until Makoto gives everybody hope.

They all vote against Ishimaru.

A different version of Super Duper Nasty Torture happens, where the executions go: Makoto’s (he wears a helmet and isnt killed by the crusher, dont question it Junko got hit by a pile driver in the original and survived), Sayaka’s, Hagakure’s, Asahina’s, Jin and Junko’s, and then Mukuro’s, with a twist.

Just before the bullet aimed for his head lands, an explosion goes off, knocking a hole in the wall and throwing Ishimaru into the outside world, while the survivors who are still watching are convinced that he died in the explosion, and he is proclaimed dead by the Future Foundation. The reality is that Kamakura managed to sneak into the building and set the explosion as a decoy, to make the world think that Ishimaru died, while allowing Ishimaru to escape the execution, albeit badly injured, but alive. Kamakura sneaks out of the building and grabs Ishimaru before anyone can find him, nurses him back to health while running from the future foundation, and the two manage to make it to Towa City, to call the Remnants of Despair to destroy the Future Foundation.

The survivors leave the building with the escape button that Ishimaru left behind, and are picked up by the Future Foundation, Makoto, Kyoko, Byakuya, and Toko follow the same roles they do in the original, while Chihiro helps with tech support and the Neo World Program for the Remnants, and Mondo acts as Byakuya’s backup force and meets Kanon Nakajima in Towa City, in Hagakure’s place.

#intense reading ahead #also its not really spoilery unless its the canon game that it spoils #i plan on making a story for certain moments in the au #like ishimaru and junko before the tragedy or this au's version of danganronpa zero #and maybe a few snippets of DRAE #i was thinking of doing a pov for takaaki in AE in this au #danganronpa au
