Danganronpa Redux: Derailed Revolution
Project Overview
Come take the thrill ride of your life!
After being saved from a life of death and destruction by Hoshino University for Gifted Women, Hani Saito wakes up to find herself on a high speed train in the middle of nowhere with fifteen other students. If that wasn't weird enough, a black and white pigeon calling itself Monohato is claiming to be the conductor!
Thrown back into the world of death games, Hani must work together with her classmates to find out not only who is behind all of this, but just why they have been trapped on a one way trip to despair.

Update: Gladys Faucheux, the Ultimate Fencer, has been replaced by Bijou Rose, the Ultimate Roboticist. The reason behind this is because Bijou fits into the story I am writing better. Thank you for your understanding.

The main character of this story. Sold to some shady people at a young age to pay off her parent's debt, she was trained to be a skilled fighter before entering her first death game at age 11. Over the course of the next seven years, she survived over 100 games ranging from Saw type traps to full on Battle Royal games. Eventually, Hoshino Academy bought her from her "managers" and promised her than in exchange for attending their school for four years, and then teaching there for two, they would give her complete freedom.
As the protag, she will have the most lines, and needs someone with a lot of range. As for pitch, I think medium to medium-high would suit her best
My name? I’m… Hani Saito, the Ultimate Scrapper. [Pause] H-huh? No, that’s not what that means, it- it’s complicated…
The Gods gave me a bunch of mental issues because if my ambitions went unchecked I would have bested them in hand to hand combat by age 16
You've got that wrong!
Meiko Izumi, Heiress to the Izumi Conglomerate. She's your typical stuck up rich girl, looking down on those she deems beneath her, which is basically everyone. If Togami had a twin sister, it'd be her.
Voice type: Medium to Medium Low, smooth, and sounding like poison is dripping with every word
Tch. I suppose given the circumstances I can tell you my name, though I’m surprised you don’t already know it. I am Meiko Izumi, Ultimate Heiress
This is ridiculous. You mean to tell me that some... flying vermin is the conductor of this train?
Hey, cut the music, cut the music. Somebody left an ice cube on the ground and it melted, and now my sock is wet. Who the f-ck want's to die?
Minami is a shy girl who doesn't have much confidence in herself offline. Online, however, she's Kirei-P, an internationally famous "idol" who writes, produces, and plays her own music. She's 1/2 American 1/2 Japanese, but looks like a carbon copy of her American mother, so she's often thought to just be a white girl who's parents decided to give her a Japanese name. Due to being a social outcast, no one knew that the idol they loved so much was the same girl they'd bullied into being mute. Basically, Minami would really relate to Mikan
She should have a medium-high pitch voice, soft, and delicate. If you can sing, that's a bonus
My name is Mi-Minami Kinoshita, but people generally know me as Kirei-P. I’m the U-Ultimate Digital Idol
Hmm? Oh! No, I’m not one of the foreign students, I swear! I d-don’t blame you for thinking that, though… P-people don’t generally believe me when I tell them I’m Japanese too… Actually, people don’t generally even t-talk to me, so…
Stop t-talking badly about yourself or I will physically fight you!
TEAM MOM! TEAM MOM!
Atsuki, the Ultimate Life Coach, is who you would go to for advice on just about anything personal. Kind, caring, and supportive, you can always count on her. She honestly just wants everyone to get along and not succumb to despair, and is willing to do anything to prevent it
Voice: Low, and motherly. I wanna feel like I've been wrapped in a warm blanket of "everything is going to be okay"
Hey there, you must be Saito, right? [Pause] Before we wound up here, I was going to be assigned to help you adjust to civilian life while we went to school. Now, where are my manners? My name is Atsuki Suzuki, the Ultimate Life Coach. It’s a pleasure to meet you
Hey! Everyone! Let’s just calm down, alright? If we work together, we’ll find a way to avoid the worst case scenario!
I refuse to die until things are better and that is a threat.
Emily Gries, one of the four foreigner students, comes from Las Vegas, Nevada. Stoic and blunt, she's a woman of few, but important, words. Normally, she lets Ophelia, her best friend and another one of the foreigner students, do the talking, only to reign her in when she gets too out there. Pretty much the only way to really get her talking is to listen to her rock out on the guitar she carries with her everywhere.
Voice: Low, and almost monotone, as if you couldn't care less about what's going on. However, there are certain scenes where she becomes animated, and angry. Bonus if you can sing
Greis. Emily Greis, Ultimate Front Woman.
N-no! I refuse to believe that! You’re… you’re lying! I won’t let you get away with this!
Write “nothing is set in stone” on my grave as both a witty pun and a subtle warning that I will be back.
Ophelia Boogie is nine shots of espresso and a line of coke at 6 in the morning. She came from a poor family in Las Vegas, her father always gambling away their money. However, when she was 12, she got in an accident involving some chemicals from a nearby factory that turned her skin green, and won some decent money in the settlement. She decided that instead of letting her father gamble it away, she would use it to buy into an underground poker game. She was a natural, and kept winning games, until she finally bought her own casino at age 16. She emancipated herself, changed her last name to Boogie, and became one of the best Houses in Vegas. She's the Aoi to Em's Sakura
Voice: Bubbly, medium-high, with a bit of insanity thrown in
Hi hi! I’m Ophelia Boogie, the one and only Ultimate House! [Pause, before laughing] Of course that’s my real last name, dummy! I didn’t go through all that legal bull for it not to be. As for my talent, the House always wins, baby~
Aww, you are just too cute. Listen, how about we play some blackjack and- What do you mean that’s a bad way to decide who dies?!
You just have to play the hand you’re dealt. Hel? She’s an Ace, obviously. Aileen is the king up my sleeve. Atsuki is my Old Maid. Em is my queen. Sayuri is a solid seven. Meiko is probably, like, a two. And I’m obviously the joker
Helena "Hel" Hearts is hailed as the "Monochrome Genius". A foreigner student from England, she grew up learning medicine due to her relationship with her mother. She not only learned to heal herself, but ran a backdoor clinic out of an abandoned kabob shop near her school. She's treated people ranging from some of the highest in politics, to those who could only pay with a smile and a thank you
Voice: Higher, and sweet like honey. I sorta think of her voice being like Tohru Honda's
Um… hello, there, my name is Helena Hearts, the Ultimate Apothecary, but you can call me Hel
I’m really just a physician who specializes in making my own medicines. It’s not exactly legal, but I’ve got some clients who help protect me from getting in trouble
If I must be murdered, my one request is that you leave my body propped up in a spinning chair faced away from the door so that whoever finds me will gently tap my shoulder and cause the chair to turn and theatrically reveal my corpse while thunder rolls above
Bijou Rose was born in France, but raised in San Fransisco by her father, a world renowned scientist on the cutting edge of AI technology. Growing up, Bijou would watch her father work in his lab, helping out where she could, which mostly involved making sure he ate and slept. When she was 10, she decided to try her hand at building her own robot, and due to all her time spent observing her father, and her own natural talent, she built a small robot that wound up winning multiple robotic competition awards. From then on, she properly worked alongside her father, building more and more advanced machines and AI, which prompted Hoshino to invite her as one of the four foreign students. She's a bit full of herself, but that's only to hide how insecure she is about her looks, and her lack of social skills.
Voice: Medium-high, bubbly, but a bit stuck up
I’m Bijou Rose! I know what you’re thinking, there’s no way this barbie doll looking girl could possibly be the best AI designer this world has ever seen, but I totally am~
(On the verge of tears) C-cow zombie? Please don’t call me that… I know I look like a freak, but… [Cries]
I bought a bubblegum scented sword, so that the last thing my enemies remember is how cute and fun I am.
Jamie Mochizuki, otherwise known as <Mal.ware>, is the top info broker in Japan, able to get any information she wants with a few clicks of her keyboard. Chances are, if you have a secret, she already knows it, so be nice to her. Not much is actually known about her, though, and that's the way she likes it.
Voice: Deep, and mysterious
Hani Saito, Ultimate Scrapper, just recently given permission to leave Hoshino Universities’ Medical Ward in order to attend class, only to end up on this train with the rest of us. Name’s Jamie Mochizuki, Ultimate Info Broker
No, I don’t know anything about this situation, unfortunately. But even if I did, why would I tell you? The more information you have, the safer you are here. Wouldn’t want to kill someone who could spill your secrets post mortem, right?
I hate when i’m just chilling, working on my personal writings and someone leans over and goes “WHat R U wRITing” like your eulogy if you don’t back the f-ck up you soggy lampshade
Often compared to a elegant doe, Sayuri Isogai is the daughter of the owner of the most famous public garden in Japan. Growing up surrounded by nature, she feels deeply connected to it, going as far as to feel physical pain when she sees someone mistreating it. Ya know the crazy flower lady in Breath of the Wild? That's her.
Voice: Medium, and gentle. Very soothing
Oh hey! I am Sayuri Isogai, the Ultimate Gardener. Plants are the most wondrous thing in this world, and I wish to bring the joys of gardening to all
H-hey, come one, don’t you think that’s a little unfair? Accusing just anyone with no real proof?
While living in England for a year in high school, I stopped hanging out with white dudes who use mustache wax bc it was only a matter of time before they fell in love with me and found out I’m gay and write a song on their… I don’t know..their harpsichord or banjo or ukulele about the girl from the forest who broke their heart but also they don’t even like hiking. And if this sounds specific, it’s because it is. Three times.
Otome Takomizu is an Octopus Otaku through and through. She would live in the ocean as a Cecaelia (Octopus Mermaid) if she could, that's how much she loves them. Due to her looks, height, and love of octopi, she often gets compared to Akkorokamui as a joke or taunt, but she considers it to be the highest form of compliment.
Voice: Medium, and excited
Otome Takomizu, atcha service! I’m the Ultimate Malacologist which is just a fancy way to say I’m an octopus scientist. [Pause] Why octopi? Have you ever met an octopus? They’re amazing!
Y’know, when Hoshino invited me to attend, I thought they were joking. I mean, I’ve always just considered myself an octopus obsessed weirdo, so for them to be like “Hey, you’re like, cool enough to get our attention,” I straight up didn’t believe them
Alright everybody, this next song is called “I’ve been awake for three days trying to find my missing octopus”, and it's me smashing my head into the piano and screaming. Hope you like it, it's a bop
All hail the Meme Queen, Gou Akamine. A skater girl with a pension for mischief, she's the life of any party. All she wants to do is live a fun life, so being a killing game is totally not what she had in mind. Be thankful her boyfriend isn't on this trip, because the two of them together are a hurricane of chaos and questionable choices. Granted, on her own, she's still more than capable of making a mess
Voice: Listen, as long as you sound like you could be a living meme, you've got a shot
Yoooooooo! Name’s Gou Akamine, Ultimate Long Boarder. I’m here because I long boarded from Hokkaido to Kyushu all on my own. That was a crazy adventure, you wouldn’t even believe lol
I wonder if the Chigaya boys are caught up in something similar… Huh? You don’t know? Hoshino has a brother school called Chigaya University for Gifted Men. My boyfriend just enrolled there as the Ultimate Lightning Rod, so you can see why I’d be worried about their current situation too lol
Sayuri is obsessed with gardening, Meiko is a high class snob, and Hani had no connection to the outside world until recently. What I’m saying is all of them would fall for up dog
Eileen Aishi, born in Japan, raised in Scotland until high school, refuses to tell anyone her talent. There's no amnesia here, she knows exactly what she is, she's just to embarrassed to admit it. She's head strong, passionate, and willing to fight tooth and nail for what she believes in, even at the risk of her own life, but that's pretty much all that's known about her.
Voice: Listen, if you can do the Scottish accent, that's amazing, but it's not a requirement. Her voice is deep, and powerful, like you want to obey her every word
Hello, my name is Eileen Aishi, the… [Sighs] I can’t say it. Sorry, lady, but I’m not copping to my title.
All I wanted was to go unnoticed, keep my talent separate from the rest of my life, but nope! Hoshino found me and invited me to attend, so here I f-cking am
I don’t spew profanities, I enunciate them, like a f-cking lady
Tiny but mighty, Aiyu Kaneko may look like a little kid, but she's an olympic gold medal volleyball player. In high school, she took her team to nationals three years in a row before being scouted for the Olympics. Now that they're over, she's finally taking a hiatus from the sport to attend Hoshino.
Voice: Saionji but not a jerk
Oh my god, hi! I’m Aiyu Kaneko, and I’m the best Volleyball Player this side of Kyushu, because I’m from Chiba! It’s so great to meet you!
Who are you calling “little girl”?! I’m the oldest one here, thank you very much!!!
How dare you. I am an adult. I work hard. I pay bills. You will not disrespect me here. I can’t believe you have the gall to call me childish…Now get out of my pillow fort
Mirai Arai can disassemble and reassemble an automatic sniper rifle in 45 seconds. In a zombie apocalypse, she'd be the one you'd want on your team if you wanted to not lose anyone. To put it plainly, Mirai is Badass(tm). She's also fueled on energy drinks and bad advice, though, so maybe not...
Voice: Honestly, the closest thing to what I'm looking for is Miu
Oh shit, hey, sorry about that! I really need to get out of the habit of drawing my knife when I get startled. Anyways, I’m Mirai Arai, Ultimate Weapon Expert
Okay, first of all, how dare you imply that I couldn’t kick your a-s if I wanted to. Second of all, why the hell would I use one of my own weapons to kill someone here! That’d be a dead giveaway I was the culprit, dumba-s!
When you turn 18, people are gonna try and tell you to buy drugs or cigarettes because you can. No. You know what else is legal to buy at 18? Blades. Get yourself a damn sword. A big knife is also okay
Gladys Faucheux is one of the foreigner students, coming from France. Growing up around swords and other bladed weapons, she has a fascination with them, considering them part of her "family". She's incredibly nice, until she isn't, and then you'll be lucky to get away with only one knick from her blades.
Voice: Think fairy tale princess
Hey, I’m Gladys Faucheux, the Ultimate Fencer. Swords are just so cool, aren’t they? My family are all blacksmiths, so I sorta grew up learning how to make them before thinking, “Hey, why don’t I use our swords instead of just making them?”
Oh hell no, I am not about to go down without a fight! En guard!
I just alternate between ‘maybe I’m smarter than I give myself credit for’ and ‘maybe I’m dumber than I realized’
