Although a spin-off of the Danganronpa series published to tie in with the Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak Academy anime series, the series was not initially marketed as such, with its connection to Danganronpa and full title being used as the twist ending of the first volume. The series has received a universally positive critical reception.
