The Monoteachers:

A squad of friendly self aware robotic bears similar to Monokuma but different, consisting of Monokino, the nervous math and English teacher, Monosupo, the hardworking sport and swimming coach, Monosaku, the sweet and caring art, music and cooking teacher, Monochui, the incredibly cautious science teacher, and Monohoko, the totally confident robot and programming specialist. What they desire is for kids 12-17 to have a perfect school life and not lure them into killing games where they must murder one another, because they do not want them to die young and violence terrifies them. They don't even have the guts to pull off such bizarre executions. All they want is to be good educators.

Episodes and Relationships:
