Danganronpa but it's written by someone who hasn't played Danganronpa

Project Overview

Danganronpa BIWBSWHPD is exactly what it says in the title. A comedic rewriting of the first Danganronpa game by two writers. A main writer who knows vaguely how Danganronpa goes, and a co-writer who has played through the entire franchise. This series is a shorter project we are working on while we chip away at our longer and more time-consuming projects. Consequently, the vibes are gonna be very casual and relaxed. if you make the cut, you get to join our super cool discord server with a Jacuzzi and stuff.

For most characters, we are looking for a semi-accurate impression unless specified otherwise.

John Newland (Makoto Naegi)
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to: JazzCat

Newland is the Naegi of this universe. He's mostly the same, just a little less bright and a LOT more boring.


We don't know if we want an accurate Naegi impression, a new voice, or a new take on his old voice. So long as you have the spirit, you have a good shot at getting in. If I had to imagine an entirely original voice for Newland, it would be slightly nerdy and his delivery would be really flat to sell the fact that he's literally just a normal guy.


!!! As you might be able to tell, Newland monologues a lot. There are some shorter audition lines blow. You can do two short lines and one monologue of your choice for your audition!

"Well, what are we waiting for?"

"This building can fit my whole apartment complex four times over… How can I ever find a bathroom?"

"Hey, what's going on!? I GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE!"

  • The massive high school towers over all the other buildings in this bustling urban area. It’s so massive that it blocks my view from my 17th-floor apartment. Hope’s Peak Academy… It brings in top students from every field imaginable—a government-funded school of privilege… They say that you'll be set for life if you come here and graduate. I don’t know why they built it, anyone going in is probably already set for life. …Well. now that I think about it, someone at the top of their field in something lame like being a janitor would probably need the help.

  • Before we go any further, I should introduce myself. My name’s John Newland. You may not be able to tell, but I am the Ultimate Waiter. …Not like a restaurant waiter, I’m good at waiting for things. Yup! I have the most patience in the world! Well, I guess I don’t know that, but I looked it up on Google, and no one else has ever sat perfectly still for 515 hours. Unfortunately, I wasn’t accepted into Hope’s Peak Academy for my skills.

  • This is where we’re supposed to meet, right? I guess I’m the first one here. There’s a really elegant clock over in the corner. Made of oak, I think. It says it’s 7:10 a.m. For those of you keeping track at home, that means I have to wait a mere 50 minutes, which is 0.16% of my record. And I have food and water with me this time, so this is gonna be easy! Wait a minute… I won’t be able to piss myself, since this is a public setting. I should find a bathroom before I start showing off my SERIOUS WAITING SKILLS.

Role assigned to: Turgize VA

Hifumi is already a punching bag as a character, so we barely changed anything.

  • [Smug] See everyone, I told you! If I'm not mistaken, all of you owe me five-hundred yen!

  • [An introduction] I’m SeniorSugoi117. But my I R L is Hifumi Yamada. I’m a writer!

  • [Shocked] Wh-? Waaaaah! That teddy bear can talk!

Role assigned to: Dude45

We've turned Hiro into a sort of idiot savant. For some reason every sentence he ever says is something a different character will say eventually at some point in future. For this reason, we've made the audition conditions a little special for him. You still have to do 3 lines in Hiro's voice, but they must come from another character's set of lines. The lines don't all have to come from the same character.

  • *Take any audition line from another character*

Mondo Owada

Unpaid
Role assigned to: speedy tempo

To compensate for the rest of the cast being so goofy, some of the characters are either kept the same or even toned down. Mondo is one of these characters. He is the voice of reason and usually just wants to be left alone.

  • [Annoyed] Oh my god, WE KNOW! YOU’VE SAID THAT LIKE A BILLION TIMES! PLEASE SHUT THE FUCK UP.

  • [Judgemental at first] Ok… That’s weird… but anyway, my name is Mondo Owada and I’m the ultimate biker gang leader.

  • [Neutral] Hey Chihiro, can I talk to you alone real quick?

Byakuya Togami

Unpaid
Role assigned to: cranberrymelodyVA

Byakuya gets hit with the silly stick HARD. This version of him is way more douchey and over-the-top than ever.


An accurate impression will be considered, but we think something like a cartoonishly posh voice would also work nicely. (Think Silver Spoon from Inanimate Insanity.)

  • Five dollars is nothing to me. Unlike you lot I’m rich.

  • [Arrogant] You all can call me Mr. Togami. I’m the ultimate better-than-you.

  • [Feigned Concern at first] Thus is the poor, sad, life of a commoner... Welp, you heard the man. As the team leader, I say we go.

Kiyotaka Ishimaru

Unpaid
Role assigned to: Theodore Krupa

Ishimaru is kept almost the exact same. The only two differences are that he is ALWAYS screaming and he will correct even the pettiest smallest moral failing whenever possible... which I guess isn't that different actually. 


A lower mic quality might be considered for this role if it sounds really funny.

  • NO FIGHTING DURING SCHOOL HOURS!

  • MY NAME IS KIYOTAKA ISHIMARU AND THAT WOMAN OVER THERE HAS SAID SOMETHING MEAN AND HASN’T APOLOGIZED!

  • WHAT!? WHAT WOULD A GUN BE DOING HERE? GUNS ARE NOT ALLOWED IN SCHOOL!

Aoi Asahina
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to: ish

The main writer for this series actually has no idea what Asahina is usually like, so to avoid writing ourselves into a corner, she is slightly dumb and that's her only character trait so far.

  • [Complaining] There are rules already? We haven’t even gotten to class yet!

  • [Excited introduction] Aoi Asahina’s the name, and I usually wear a swimsuit, which is kind of like my work uniform if you think about it.

  • [Jovial] Come on, new kid! Tell us your name!

Sakura Ogami

Unpaid
Role assigned to: itsremzi8

At first glance, one might mistake this version of Sakura as dumb, but she isn't. She is just focused so much on martial arts that she doesn't think very hard about anything else.

  • [Genuinely asking] Are we allowed to engage in mutual combat after school hours?

  • [Believing another student's name to be "Sorry"] Hello, Sorry. I am Sakura Ogami, The ultimate martial artist. What about you?

  • [Confident and Proud] Jokes on you, I fully support transgenders!

Kyoko Kirigiri

Unpaid
Role assigned to: Mia.the_Artist

Kyoko's main gimmick is that she's going to be a MOSTLY normal person except occasionally she'll be a bit of a condescending know-it-all.

A slightly more nasally voice may be considered.

  • [Nerd-ish] Technically there can't be an "afterschool" if we aren't allowed to leave the premises.

  • [Confused] Wait…that doesn’t make any sense…? How could there be two Ultimate Writers?

  • [Neutral] My name is Kyoko Kirigiri. I have nothing else to share at this time.

Chihiro Fujisaki

Unpaid
Role assigned to: Adrian Delgado

Technically, Chihiro's characterization is actually toned DOWN for this series. She's still an over-apologetic nerve wreck, but she gets tired of the other's eccentricates way quicker than she would in canon.

  • [Childlike Innocence] Wait, we aren't allowed to leave? Why?

  • [Puzzled] Huh? A… teddy bear?

  • [Fearful] A killing game!? This can't be happening to me! I'm at a natrual disadvantage- I'm the smallest by mass and it's not even close!!!

Junko Enoshima

Unpaid
Role assigned to: Loopimay

Okay, I'm just gonna lift the veil for a second, I have no idea what the deal is with Junko. I know that [SPOILER ALERT] as of the start of the game, the Junko we know isn't the real Junko but I have no idea how or why. This Junko might not even be the mastermind in the universe so just focus on the fashion model aspect of her personality.


UPDATE: We've decided that Junko and Sayaka are a mean girl duo. You can factor that into your audition (or reaudition if you're feeling up to it). Here's a bonus audition line you may choose to do to get this aspect of her personality:
"Wait... you aren't a vampire? With that outfit, I just assumed you weren't capable of using reflective surfaces."

  • [Facetious] Uh... yeah. Unless you can tear through metal plates with your bare hands, we're pretty stuck.

  • [Disgusted in her own lack of style] I’m Junko Enoshima, and I’m usually wearing better clothes…

  • [Judgmental] So you don’t have any talents? That’s kind of boring…

Celeste

Unpaid
Role assigned to: Lena Gray

With the rest of the students being comedically incompetent, or exceedingly average, someone needs to be able to point out everyone else's ideocracy. That is now Celeste's job. She has two ways of doing this; Dry sarcasm to maintain her cool persona, or a fiery rage when that persona is shattered.

  • [Sarcastic] Wow… you are not very clever, are you?

  • [Trying to clear up a misunderstanding] What? Not you, her. Not YOU! The one who was just talking. NO! You with the white hair! That is it! Everybody introduce themselves NOW!!

  • [Professional] I do not believe we have been introduced. I am Celestia Ludenberg.

Leon Kuwata

Role assigned to: HajimeVA

Leon gets to live a lot longer than he does in canon, which will give us more time to expand on his singing dreams, even though he will be very bad at singing 

  • [Offended] Hey! Who you calling dumb!?

  • [Excited] Yo, I’m Leon! I used to pitch and run bases, but now I wanna change my pitch and sing bass!

  • *Sing an excerpt of "Take Me Out to The Ball Game" poorly.*

Sayaka Maizono

Role assigned to: miya

Sayaka is a relatively blank slate for the same reason as Aoi. Expect her to live longer than she normally does.


UPDATE: We've decided that Sayaka and Junko are a mean girl duo. You can factor that into your audition (or reaudition if you're feeling up to it). Here's a bonus audition line you may choose to do to get this aspect of her personality: "I wouldn't be surprised if your voice just didn't echo. The universe would never want to play such horrible sound more than once."

  • [Harshly Critical] If THAT's what your singing voice sounds like, you should stick to baseball.

  • [Confused] I mean... he died... does that mean we win?

  • [Exasperated] Great! I already deal with crazed fans trying to murder me, now the people trying to murder me aren't even fans!

Toko Fukawa

Role assigned to: Rin

Toko still has the anxiety and negative self-image, but just for the sake of having her interact with others more, she desperately tries to fit in.

  • [Trying too hard to be included in the conversation] I read a book that had a main character with white hair once!

  • [Excited] Really!? I was worried I wasn’t going to fit in, but I’m a writer too! I mostly do romance! How about you?

  • [Hopeful] M-... maybe I’ll enjoy myself here after all!

Monokuma

Unpaid
Role assigned to: Mop

Monokuma is a lot less playfully coy, and a lot more of a straight up asshole. He loves despair and he doesn't care who knows it.

An accurate impression will be considered, but so will any original voices. Personally, I think a very deep voice with a jersey accent would be really funny for this version of the character.

  • To all incoming students! I would like to begin the entrance ceremony at… right now! Please make your way to the gymnasium at your earliest convenience. …NOW.

  • My name is Monokuma, and I’m gonna ruin your lives!

  • I already know your names, your stories, and I have a VARITABLE list of all your weaknesses and flaws! This is one big joke to me, and you're all my little punchlines!
