Danganronpa tier list questions
Which Danganronpa games are covered?
The list covers the first game, Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair and Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony, along with Danganronpa 3 and Ultra Despair Girls where characters also appear.
Does this list contain spoilers?
The write-ups stick to titles, roles and background, and avoid plot twists and trial outcomes. Even so, knowing who is on the list hints at who survives, so first-time players may want to wait.
