Introduction to DR!R0
Danganronpa! Rejected Zer0 or DR!R0 for short is a fan-made video series inspired by the video games known as Danganronpa. The video series is made to look similar to the walkthroughs of a playable game.
The Storyline
In the Canon danganronpa universe, a student can only become an Ultimate at Hope Peak if they were first nominated by a teacher and second accepted into the program.
This idea is what if there were students who were nominated to be an Ultimate but didn't get accepted into Hope Peak Program due to several reasons. One of the main reason being that all of them have committed one or more crimes. Instead of them going to jail to pay for what they did, they agreed to part take in this therapy lockdown program organized by Hope Peal academy themselves. Everything was fine and dandy until something happened.
