Danganronpa: Togami [a] is a Japanese light novel trilogy written by Yuya Sato and illustrated by Yun Kōga and Shima Drill. It was published by Seikaisha from November 27, 2015 to February 15, 2017, [3] [4] and collected in three tankōbon volumes. A prequel to the Spike Chunsoft video games Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc and Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, [b] [5] the first and third volumes of the series focus on Byakuya Togami during "The Tragedy" as he is stranded in Prague with his biographer Blue Ink, evading assassins after the " Ultimate Imposter" assumes Byakuya's identity and announces worldwide that lest "he" (the real Byakuya) be assassinated within the following 24 hours, the group will "end the world." In a parallel storyline set years earlier, in the second volume, 15 of the 108 Togami siblings partake in "The Competition", created by their father to choose the next heir of the Togami Corporation.
The 2016 anime series Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School feature a return of Kazuya's "lightsaber" from the Danganronpa: Togami trilogy as a mechanical flaming katana possessed by Future Foundation Vice-Chairman Kyosuke Munakata.
The living heir to the Togami Conglomerate, billionaire Byakuya Togami is suddenly attacked in the midst of the Tragedy while in Prague with his biographer, apparently a fellow Hope's Peak Academy student referred to only as " Blue Ink". After having his identity (and clothes) stolen from him, Byakuya listens as his imposter announces on live broadcast that, should the world not kill "him" within 24 hours, he will take over the world. As the world descends into chaos with the propagation of the mysterious "Despair Book", it's up to Byakuya and Blue Ink to escape assassins and uncover the truth. [6] [7]
Meanwhile, four years earlier, on the Togami family private island with fourteen of his siblings, Kazuya Togami partakes in "The Competition", created by their father to choose the next heir of the Togami Corporation. As a mysterious lightsaber-wielding Decapitator begins killing off the participants, detective Suisei Nanamura and his assistant Polaris P. Polanski are hired to investigate.
Expanding on character concepts from the video games Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc and Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, [10] [11] the novel trilogy consists of 18 chapters, which have been collected into three tankōbon volumes, [12] [13] the first of which was published in November 2015.
