Right? [But she's caught on about...] ...Right, so. After we were placed into the school, we were supposed to be launched into space in something called the 'Gopher Project'. The hopeful 16 are preserved in space to make sure humanity had a bright future. It never actually got that far. Before we could be exiled from Earth, there was the revelation that one of our number had joined Ultimate Despair.
But we were already locked in. The traitor was already there. And they'd brought preparations. One of Enoshima's favorite methods of torture was one for her own entertainment. A 'battle royale' she called a 'killing game'. A robotic bear plushie named Monokuma would appear in some grandiose fashion, announce he was the new headmaster, and that a game was about to begin. The win condition was to discover the mastermind hidden amongst the students. The rest, though...
What she wanted was simple: commit a murder without being caught. Motives would be presented, and every time, someone would snap. They'd kill someone. Then we'd all have an informal 'class trial'. They'd be found out, but if they somehow tricked us...we'd all die in their place.
[He almost knicks himself with the knife when he smiles.] Lucky, lucky us that one of our classmates was the Ultimate Detective. Our hero...Shuichi Saihara. Contrasted with the villain who everyone seemed intent on hating...the Ultimate Supreme Leader.
