If all your looking for is “ZOMGz HARDCORE ACTION THE R0KZ0RZ BRUCE FAULCONER” this special isn’t for you. First off one of the major points I should…uh…point out is…This special is not for the common fan. We compiled dozens of photos and even a few videos from the event that can be seen below.I just got done recording an Audio Thought thing on this and figured I'd post the script I had here with my thoughts. Hopefully more murders happen soon so more mysteries can be carried out. It’s too rare we see something of this nature and it’s great to see publishers literally putting on a show for their fans.

This, unsurprisingly, continued to shift, but the majority had it right by the end: it was Kazuichi.Ī day full of thrills, chills and spills, the Danganronpa Murder Mystery was a great extension of the game and a very personal fan outreach from NISA. Throughout the trial, small breaks allowed the audience to vote for who they thought was the blackened. There was plenty of humorous back and forth banter during the proceedings and enough twists and turned to keep even the most assured con goer guessing.

The class trial lasted about half an hour and featured cosplayers dressed as Mikan, Kazuichi, Ibuki and Akane going toe to toe in an effort to identify the blackened with a gigantic Monokuma overseeing the trial. Seemingly everybody who set out to find them all did indeed do so and by the end of the day nearly 300 people (so many, in fact, that it was moved to a bigger hall) gathered to participate in the class trial. Once every clue were found (via cell phone evidence), they could be turned in for a cute Monokuma voting paddle to participate in a class trial to close out the day.

The nice thing about how the clues were presented was that it could basically be done in the background of the convention - as attendees walked around they could simply keep their eyes peeled throughout the day to locate all of the clues. Every time I found a clue, there were quickly a dozen more people that followed suit, with some con goers even teaming up to find them quicker. As well as they were hidden, however, that didn’t seem to stop participants from finding them in no time. I admittedly even missed it until I noticed somebody crouching under it. The clues were commendably hidden, with one even being down a random hallway under a table across from a few elevators. Each clue gave insight into how the murdered was carried out, although it was never guaranteed all were legitimate. Six clues were scattered through the Sheraton (the location of the convention), identified by blood splatters placed near the clue. At the beginning of the day, a short introductory video announced the murder and that it was up to the con attendees to gather clues and find out who did it (the blackened). Luckily, that indeed happened and the fun began.Ī centerpiece of Anime Conji, the rules of the event were simple. NIS America finally realized this and set out to change it by inviting Mikan, Kazuichi, Ibuki, Akane and of course Monokuma himself to San Diego at Anime Conji 2015 in the hopes that somebody would be murdered.

As great as the games are, however, there’s always been something lacking in the franchise: the nefarious game of murder occurring in real life. Coming out of seemingly nowhere, the franchise has taken both the anime and anime gaming world by storm, with multiple devotees cosplaying as their favorite characters in practically every otaku convention of the past year. Danganronpa was one of the most pleasant surprises of 2014, offering up not just one amazing game, but two.
