16 students participate in a despair-inducing, killing game. If one would like to leave, they must kill and get away with it. Not being able to trust the person right next to you, you can only trust yourself. Follow Ari Akagawa, the Ultimate Hair St...
Monokuma: Now then let's get start with the rules. These will be your E-handbooks.
Monokuma passes out our "E-handbooks", which look like simple tablets.
Monokuma: Inside it will tell you the rules. It will give you directions to where you need to go and a map if you get lost. It will also tell you, your motives.
Daniella: M-motives?
Monokuma: Motives to kill, sweetheart.
Anabella: No need to remind us.
Monokuma: Now let's begin introducing the rules. Number 1 - All students must live the rest of their foreseeable lives in the UDA. Number 2 - Once a murder has taken place here, all remaining classmates must participate in the class trial.

Ayano: Class trials?
Monokuma: That's where and how you and your fellow classmates will decide who is the blackened or the guilty party.
Akihiko: You didn't need to clarify we all knew what you meant.
Monokuma: Hmph. Number 3 - If the blackened is revealed during the class trial, only they will be punished.
Monokuma: Number 4 - If the true blackened isn't caught, all other students will be executed. Number 5 - If the blackened is not unveiled, they'll graduate and return to the outside world.
Monokuma: Number 6 - The killing game will continue until 2 surviving students are left.
Teshi: Does that mean if only 2 people are alive you'll let us go?
Monokuma: Yep, but only because you have been filled with utter despair. Number 7 - "Nighttime" will begin at 10 pm and end at 8 am. The gymnasium will be off-limits during this time period. Number 8 - Violence towards Headmaster Monokuma is strictly prohibited. Number 9 - Monokuma will never be the blackened.

Monokuma: Number 10 - Your E-handbooks are very important items so please don't damage them. Number 11 - The body discovery announcement will play only when three or more innocent classmates discover a body.
Monokuma: Number 12 - With these minimal restrictions, you're free to explore the campus at your freewill. Number 13 - Students who violate any of these rules will be executed. Number 14 - Monokuma may add new regulations to list anytime he chooses. Everyone, got that?
Fioren: Uh...
Monokuma: Good! That's all the rules so I'm done. Buh-bye my students!
Monokuma disappeared into thin air, leaving us with numerous of questions.
This was only the start of my journey. One of high hopes and deep despairs. I was trying to process everything I was just told. Basically, kill or be killed.
