Ultimate Hunt

The Ultimate Hunt (超高校級狩り Chō kōkō-kyū kari lit. Super High School Level Hunt) is a major event in the backstory of Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony, which was actually fabricated by Team Danganronpa as part of the 53rd season of the Danganronpa reality show.

Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony
The Ultimate Hunt started during the events of The Gofer Project. It occurred due to people around the world finding out about “The Gofer Project” and started as a result, the Ultimate Hunt.

The Ultimate Hunt began to encompass the entire world, and the sixteen students who had tried to run away were gradually cornered. And so the organization that had tried to implement The Gofer Project in the first place tried to counter that situation.

They began spreading false information, saying that “all sixteen students had died.” That's what that funeral we remembered was all about. By doing so, they managed to calm down the Ultimate Hunt while providing protection to those 16 students. And finally, they were able to put The Gofer Project into action.
