Team Danganronpa

{{spoiler|Team DanganRonpa is an organization in the Danganronpa series introduced in Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony. They created the Danganronpa reality show, which is currently on its 53rd season.

Description
Team DanganRonpa is the group responsible for creating the Danganronpa television show which eventually developed into producing real life killing games with living participants such as the New Killing School Life. They are shown to be a technologically adept group capable of creations such as the EMISAL units and Kiibo. Currently, the only known people under their employ are Tsumugi Shirogane, Kiibo (unknowingly), and the Monokuma units that take a role in the New Killing School Life.

After learning about the game's true nature, Shuichi Saihara stops playing along, boring the Audience. In the end, Kiibo sacrifices himself to finally end Danganronpa, killing Tsumugi and destroying the set where the game was held. His self-destruction also creates a massive hole, literally breaking the fourth wall. Shuichi, Maki Harukawa and Himiko Yumeno are the only survivors and while they are not sure what is true and what is lies, they appear to have a positive outlook and wonder that maybe the world of Danganronpa could still be continuing somewhere.

Trivia
Team DanganRonpa appears to be a satirical portrayal of the real Danganronpa series, their show being portrayed as a cash cow franchise with a ridiculous amount of seasons and increasingly more ridiculous themes, implying that the creators possibly do not wish to continue the real series anymore. The game's last chapter appears to criticize both the franchise and its fanbase, dealing with the themes of fiction and reality. The ending seems to imply that the real series might be ending, just like the Danganronpa series shown in the game. On his Twitter page, Kazutaka Kodaka described the game and specifically its ending as "the culmination". However, he also states that fiction does not die and thus the story does not end, though this could be a symbolic statement referring to the game's epilogue.}}
