Towa City

Towa City is the primary setting of Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls. It is a huge artificial island in the middle of the ocean built and controlled by Towa Group.

Description
Towa City was built and controlled by Towa Group, a leading technology enterprise owned by the Towa Conglomerate. The city began as a huge floating island formed on reclaimed land; initial construction started with Towa Group's headquarters and was quickly followed by row after row of research buildings, factories, commercial buildings, residential areas, and more.

Towa City's isolated nature proved effective for Towa Group, allowing them to build up their own private infrastructure while simultaneously developing highly advanced technology to aid the world. As such, the Towa Conglomerate was able to play the 'savior' role by taking advantage of several opportunities produced by The Tragedy, one namely being their development of an air purification system to combat the worldwide spread of horrible air pollution.

While the Towa Conglomerate were huge contributors to rebuilding the world after the Tragedy, they stand a shadow of their former self as a result of the destruction and chaos caused by the Warriors of Hope. In the wake of this seemingly instantaneous takeover, within a day the city was decimated to a collection of battered buildings with public transportation and communication with the outside world halted to a standstill. The population of Towa City was greatly reduced as well after the attack of the Monokuma robots and Monokuma Kids, leaving many areas either uninhabited or riddled with corpses. Those adults still alive fended for themselves or formed small pockets throughout the city, with a large group called the Resistance taking refuge in the sewers.
