Danganronpa: The Animation - Episode 04

Weekly Shounen Despair Magazine : #4 (Ab) Normal Days is the fourth episode of the Dangan Ronpa anime. It first aired on July 25, 2013.

Plot
Following the class trial, Monokuma grants access to the second floor of the academy, containing a library and a swimming pool with gender-divided changing rooms. Whilst searching the library, the group find a broken laptop and a letter that indicates Hope's Peak Academy has actually been shut down for years, along with a storeroom filled with confidential files. As the pool changing rooms require ElectroIDs to unlock, Monokuma introduces a school rule that students are forbidden from exchanging their ElectroIDs. Later, Makoto Naegi comes across writer Touko Fukawa, who appears to have a thing for the cold-hearted affluent progeny, Byakuya Togami, before winding up as a witness to a sauna endurance battle between gangster Mondo Oowada and moral compass Kiyotaka Ishimaru, who end up bonding with each other. The next day, Monokuma announces his next incentive, in which he will publicly announce everyone's secrets unless someone is killed in the next 24 hours, although Makoto believes no one would kill over something so trivial. The next day, however, they discover programmer Chihiro Fujisaki murdered in the girl's changing room, hung up like a crucifixion with the words "Bloodbath Fever" written in blood on the wall. During the investigation, some peculiarities are found, such as a seemingly disappearing coffee stain and curious unfitting posters, along with a testimony by gambler Celestia Ludenberg that she saw Chihiro the night before. Byakuya tells Naegi that he believes this to be the work of a homocidal maniac named Genocider Syo who crucified victims in a similar fashion. Meanwhile, Touko locks herself in her room, also mentioning something about Genocider Syo.
