Coming out this fall, September 29, 2017, Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony will be here before we know it.  Until then, let’s meet the first round of Ultimate Students who will be taking part in the next killing game! Upupupu!

Kaede Akamatsu: Ultimate Pianist

Known as the “Piano Freak”, Kaede has won numerous trophies from piano competitions earning her the title of Ultimate Pianist.  She is positive and puts all her effort into achieving her goals.  She also, “feels a deep resentment toward Monokuma for forcing everyone to participate in his absurd killing game.”

Rantaro Amami: Ultimate ???

There’s always a mystery ultimate, isn’t there? Will he have super detective skills? Will he be just plain ordinary? Although Rantaro doesn’t know what his Ultimate ability is, he is excited to find out what it actually is.  Glib and laidback, Rantaro is able to press Monokuma for information without being thrown into a panic.  “At times, his attitude suggests that he knows more about what’s happening than his classmates, which only heightens the air of mystery surrounding him.”

Miu Iruma: Ultimate Inventor

Responsible for “Eyedrop Contact Lenses”, Miu isn’t actually satisfied with her invention because she had to work for it.  “Miu believes that coasting through life is the best way to live it.” She is also arrogant and vulgar making dirty jokes and innuendos every time she opens her mouth yet she is submissive and docile if anyone talks back to her.

Kokichi Oma: Ultimate Supreme Leader

Kokichi’s Ultimate talent is being the supreme leader of an evil secret organization with a membership of over 9,000 (10,000, actually)! Of course, there’s no evidence such a group exists.  “As a self-professed liar, Kokichi revels in blurring the lines that separate fact from fiction. He has a tendency to say whatever pops into his head, and is prone to theatrical outburst of crocodile tears.” He also displays no remorse for tormenting his classmates.  Evil, dude.
