Danganronpa: The Animation (ダンガンロンパ: The Animation) is a 2013 television anime series based on Spike Chunsoft's murder mystery video game, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. The series follows a boy named Makoto Naegi who, along with fourteen other unique students, is imprisoned inside the elite Hope's Peak Academy, where a psychotic remote-controlled bear named Monokuma offers them only one means of escape: murder another student and get away with it.

The 13-episode series aired in Japan between July 4 and September 26, 2013 on MBS' Animeism programming block, also airing on TBS, CBC and BS-TBS. The series has been licensed in North America by Funimation, who simulcast the series online and released it on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on November 10, 2015.[2][3] Manga Entertainment released the series in the United Kingdom on November 9, 2015.[4]
