In an au of Hope's Peak without the killing game, the casts of vr1, 2, and 3 interact and go through their daily despair free lives. In the chaotic world of honing talents, managing clubs and balancing relationships, despair is the farthest thing from the minds of the Hope's Peak Students. However, with the emergence of a top secret cloning operation, rising tensions between main and reserve course students, mysterious clues pointing to the exposure of many of the Ultimate's secrets, and a strange walking, talking black and white teddy bear, it becomes clear in a hazy spiral of hope and despair that life at Hope's Peak will never be the same
Thanks to the efforts of the future foundation and the survivors of the killing school life, Junko Enoshima's despair has greatly weakened.
But one last thing stands in the way of true hope...
The ultimate despair. AKA, Hope's Peak Academy's 77th class.
A solution to that issue has been put into motion, but... what will you do when somethings don't go according to plan?
