Notes

• The concept of the Monokuma was created by Kazutaka Kodaka and designed by Rui Komatsuzaki where it featured in the Danganronpa universe.
• In an interview, Danganronpa series producer Yoshinori Terasawa stated, "[Monokuma] was created with an image of contradictions in mind, like good and evil, hope and despair. These contradicting elements create a sort of highlighting effect. Although it ended up being much darker than expected (laughs). But I think that's just an expression of Mr. Kodaka's nature, as well. It's nice to see Monokuma show up in different games, because I get to see him from a user's perspective. Even within those different game worlds, I think he still exerts his presence. Society these days seems to have a general feeling of hopelessness. So I thought it would be good to emphasize the importance of having hope and just moving forward."
