It was announced on the official website of the Danganronpa 3: The End of Kibougamine Gakuen series that Kibou-hen will be broadcast next week on Thursday, September 29.

According to scenes shown during the broadcast of the 11th and final episode of Zetsubou-hen, Kibou-hen may be related to the real second game. The 12th and final episode of Mirai-hen will be aired on September 26. Thus, Kibou-hen will serve as the finale for the entire Danganronpa 3 anime series.

Danganronpa 3: The End of Kibougamine Gakuen are related to Danganronpa 2: Sayonara Zetsubou Gakuen of the franchise, which aired as two separate arcs each week this season. Zetsubou-hen, which aired on Thursdays, was an original story based on the second game and serves as the prequel to the game; Mirai-hen, which aired on Mondays, is also an original story.

That sounds good, I guess.

Mirai-hen isn't an adaptation of the third game, it's an anime-original just like Zetsubou-hen. Super Dangan Ronpa 2 and Danganronpa: Another Episode have yet to be adapted (and probably never will be)

Danganronpa has been lit this season, sad to see Zetsubou-hen end on 11th episode.

I guess that special Kibou-hen episode will wrap everything nicely, hence why its a stand alone segment. Me like it.

Oh nice, maybe they'll tease us an episode with events based on Danganronpa 2 though it feels more like might just be a episode to bridge Mirai-hen characters and Zetsubo-hen characters together.

Sounds interesting. Danganronpa's an amazing series, I hope a similar survival/killing game anime will be released soon. I love this kind of stuff :3 I'll miss you Danganronpa!

And what does 'Kibou' mean. Like 'Mirai' means future and 'Zetsoubo' means despair

Kibou means 'hope.'
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Uh, yes, since the beggining because both series complement each other.

Well you didn't fix it enough :P

Danganronpa 3: The End of Kibougamine Gakuen adapts the second and third games of the franchise, which aired as two separate arcs each week this season. Zetsubou-hen, which aired on Thursdays, was an original story based on the second game and serves as the prequel to the game; Mirai-hen, which aired on Mondays, is an original story based on the third game.
Bolded parts aren't true
Both DR3 anime are original, they're not adapting anything that has ever been in any of the games. And the actual Danganronpa 3 visual novel (which is actually called New Dangan Ronpa V3) is a completely different story supposedly almost entirely unrelated to the previous installments of the franchise and it still hasn't been released (due to come out in 2017)

Uhm you were supposed to watch them interchangibly from the start.. I.E. Mirai-hen ep 1 => Zetsubou-hen ep 2 => Mirai-hen ep 2 => Zetsubou-hen ep 2 etcetera; they're designed to complement each other as far as plot reveals and stuff goes in that order

...Literally how it was intended to be watched. Future 1, Despair 1, Future 2, Despair 2, etc. Why would you watch it any other way? Unless you're one of those anime onlys, which you really shouldn't be, because Dangan Ronpa 2 is an amazing game, and the first anime was hot garbage.

Chronological wise, it's: DR3 Zetsubou-hen > DR1 (game or anime) > DR3 Kibou-hen (assuming) > DR2 (game) > DR3 Mirai-hen
But the way it should be watched is: DR1 > DR2 > DR3 Mirai-hen EP 1, then Zetsubou-hen EP 1, then Mirai-hen EP 2, then Zetsubou-hen EP 2 (and continue jumping back and forth). Kibou-hen should be watched last.

For the entire series: DR/Zero (light novel) & Zetsubou-Hen, DR (game or anime),Super DR2 (game), Ultra Despair Girls (game), Mirai-Hen.

There are other light novels, I'm just not sure where they fall on the timeline.

I "hope" they pull out a good ending. Zetsubou hen ending was trash, with so many things left unanswered and so much wasted potential.

Anyway, let's see what will happen. Kodaka is not a bad writer so he should know how to end his most popular series properly.

Actually, Zetsubou-hen happens before DR0 and Despair Girls is between DR1 and SDR2.

The series should 100000% be experienced in the original release order, though. Namely,
DR1 > DR0 > SDR2 > UDG > DR3

Keep in mind that Kodaka is not the one writing this series fully and he just does a main script for it, just the main key points.

Does anyone know if this will be on FUNimation too? I have an account, basically made an account just for Danganronpa and I'm wondering this is marked as "special" instead of "TV" will FUNimation get the rights to it?

Or I can watch it on another site... Just need to confirm that it will come out for streaming here. Do not want to wait for a Blu Ray release... Oh God, please. No.
