We then have to talk to our fellow classmates to get an idea of what's going on, including the big and slightly intimidating Ultimate Entomologist Gonta Gokuhara, and Ultimate Inventor Miu Iruma, who's filled with attitude and foul language. We won't give all the details away here, because as series creator Kazutaka Kodaka said himself, Danganronpa is a series that lives and dies by its spoilers, and there are some key bits of information even here that may well be pushing those limits, but as we wake up we're greeted by another student and are informed that we're all stuck in this building together (shock). After all, waking up at a desk in a run-down school would be pretty confusing for anyone. We're not totally sure whether this demo's version of the game's start is the same as it'll be in the full game, but as with other entries we wake up in a mysterious situation where we're trapped with lots of fellow students, and Kaede is about as confused as Makota and Hajime were in their respective beginnings, maybe more so.
One of the main things the demo does is introduce us to the player character, and while the last two main instalments have featured male protagonists, Makoto Naegi and Hajime Hinata, here we play as female student Kaede Akamatsu. Although those in Japan have already had their chance to experience the series' return, those in the West only have this demo to go on, and it's good news, as there's a lot to see for existing fans, but also some new features spicing things up a bit. The main Danganronpa series last had its outing in 2012's (or later in the West) Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, where we participated in another killing game on a tropical island, but now the series is back again with Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony, a game that's recently received a demo that gives us a taste of what to expect.
