IPSE EXPERIMENT (Danganronpa)

IPSE EXPERIMENT (Danganronpa)

Project Overview

IPSE Experiment is a fan-made audio series project and is inspired by Danganronpa. We are not affiliated with Spike Chunsoft or the official Danganronpa brand. It focuses on 16 participants stuck in a hotel resort and got greeted by the Guide. They told them that the only way to escape the hotel resort is to kill someone and get away with it.

The series will be told in a visual novel format and will be posted on YouTube. All Voice Actors who have fully recorded their lines will be credited for their portfolio.

AUDITION INFO:

IPSE Experiment deals with a lot of topics that could be triggering for some viewers, which is typical of a Danganronpa fan project. All warnings that come from the original Danganronpa games will apply.
