You awaken in a classroom, disoriented and confused. The lingering pain of your previous execution is still present. You leave the room and find a hallway leading to other classrooms. Sounds of voices draw you to the gym, where you discover fourteen other individuals. A biker remarks on the total of fifteen participants. Kaede introduces herself, noting that you missed the introductions. Suddenly, a voice announces the start of the game. A familiar teddy bear, Monokuma, appears on stage, confirming that the previous events were real and that the participants are not dead. The group reacts with shock and disbelief, with various comments expressing confusion and anger at the situation.
