Synopsis: Makoto Naegi, a remarkable teenager, is surprised to learn that he was accepted at Hope de Hope's private gym: an elite school that brings together the best students in various fields. Although he believed his admission was just a chance, Naegi is pleased to participate in an institution known for ensuring the success of those who form. Determined, he enters the doors of the front of the prestigious gym.

However, after losing consciousness inside, Naegi wakes up in a seemingly abandoned classroom. Failing to understand how he got there, Naegi begins to explore and, to his surprise, finds his classmates gathered at the gym. While everyone is trying to find out what happened, they are confronted by the school principal - Monokuma, a stuffed robotic bear. The mysterious toy explains that freshmen are trapped inside the school with only one way of escape - kill a classmate without being discovered.

Tension fills the air when Naegi and his classmates realize that they are facing two options: participate in Monokuma's murder game or reside together at school for the rest of their lives.
