Soo what's going to happen to what's left of Team Danganronpa?
Someone's gotta clean up the rest of that mess.
You all take care, okay? Especially you, Esumi.
I will. Until next time, Shinabe-san.
We beat Shirogane. That's the important part...and it means everyone we lost can finally rest in peace...including my moms.
See you 'round, kids.
*With that, Mako walks off*
...We don't even remember our parents. How's this going to work?
Well, Yumeno and Saihara have people who can help re-educate them on the matter. Yumeno's mom is still out there, we know that. But for you, Maki-chan...I think that's something your parents are gonna have to handle.
I doubt your parents are ever going to speak to me again.
...This wasn't your fault.
I know...
*Kaede stares out at the ruins of the dome visible in the distance*
Akamatsu? It's time to go.
...It doesn't feel over. I don't think it ever will. Not for me.
Same here. I've been at this for decades, kid.
But I guess we can start somewhere.
...Why didn't he just stop this?
...
*Without an answer, Masa pulls her back to the car*
*Kaede wipes her tears, looks back one last time, and joins everyone in the ride back*

Tbh, the only person in the killing game who truly deserved to die was Wallpaper-Chan, and it's pretty sad that an innocent (The blue-haired girl whose body she snatched for the "game") had to die to make sure she never returns
What was her real name?
Omigawa Kiko. She was bodysnatched at the end of Season 52. There wasn't much we could do for her.
...We can remember her real name. That's something.

Is the site secure?
KF Member: Yep. No signs of any further activity from Team Danganronpa. I think their operation has officially ceased.
Where's Shirogane?
KF Member: Confirmed dead. Her remains are right this way.
KF Member: When the android was blasting the site, she was crushed under this boulder. Apparently the survivors managed to convince her to surrender. We've deleted all her remaining brainscans.
So that's how it ends, huh?
*Mako kicks the bloody boulder*
YA LIKE, BITCH!? HOW'S IT FEEL?! I HOPE IT FUCKING HURT WHEN YOU GOT SQUASHED!
Shinabe-san, please.
KF Member: The survivors are also waiting inside. We've been debriefing them on the situation as best we can.
Maki...
____________________________________________________
So everything she said really was a lie...
KF Member: There were no meteorites, I promise you. The outside world is just fine.
I'm just glad it's finally over.
And Shirogane's actually dead, right?
KF Member: All her backups have been deleted, and we're tracking any overseas connections she might've had. So far, it looks like there weren't any others. We're in the process of seizing all the assets for-
*The doors fly open*
...*As soon as Masa sees Maki, she rushes over and hugs her*
Huh? Y-You...
Hey, kids. Sorry we couldn't find this place sooner...
What happened? How'd it take you this long?
We followed Harukawa-san here, and then we lost her signal somewhere in the wilderness. It took weeks trying to figure out where exactly it could've gone dark, and it turns out this entire underground dome was completely radiation-proof. Nothing could get in or out unless it was through Team DR's transmitter.
So then...I'm...guessing you're one of my actual family members, right?
That's right. I'm your grandma. Your mom and dad are out there too.
So...I'm really not an orphan...
Sorry, I'm just...trying to sort out whatever my actual memories are.
She made up so much about our lives...is there anyway to get our old memories back?
Sorry, kiddo...it doesn't work that way. When your memories are gone, they're gone.
But we'll help you relearn everything, I swear.
There's also...someone here who wants to talk to you all. Please, don't panic. She'll explain everything.
She'll explain? What do you mean-
Huh?!
Y-You...
No way...
*A young woman steps out from behind Masa and Mako*
Hey there. You guys have...been through a lot, huh? I should probably introduce myself first.
I'm...Akamatsu Kaede. The real Akamatsu Kaede.

Gone...? What do you mean she's-
Shinjiro: I mean she's gone, Mom! Meira's freaking out...and there's no sign of Shinguji-san either.
...
Shinjiro: ...Is it happening? Is this...Shirogane? You told me you'd keep us safe.
...
Shinjiro: WHY IS SHE GONE, MOM?! YOU TOLD ME YOU DIDN'T WANT US GETTING INVOLVED! MY DAUGHTER'S MISSING! WHO EVEN KNOWS HOW MANY OTHER KIDS ARE GONE! WHAT'VE YOU BEEN DOING ALL THIS TIME?! WHERE ARE WHEN WE NEED YOU MOST?!
...I'm getting them back, and I'm gonna do what should've been done a long time ago.
Shinjiro: ...
Shinjiro...I'm sorry I wasn't around as much as I should've been. I'm-
Shinjiro: ...Just get my daughter back. We'll...We'll talk then.
*He hangs up*
...Yeah.
Shinabe, get the car. We're following Maki.
You know where she is?!
She said she had a tracker, remember? It's in one of her teeth. We can get a fix on all the locations she's been through, and from there...
We finally narrow down where the parasite's been hiding. Perfect.
You know, if I'm being honest...I'm a little glad it took us so long to find Shirogane.
Now I have plenty of names to carve into her skull.
Let's just make sure my granddaughter and the rest of those kids are among them.
*The two hop into their car and drive off*
Hello? This is Harukawa Masa, contacting the Kisaragi Foundation and the JSDF. We're honing in on Shirogane Tsumugi's location. Secure all possible routes into and out of the following coordinates, and as soon as we've got a fix, circle around and move in.
She's slipped through our fingers for long enough.

I knew these bastards were fast, but damn...Iruma, Saihara and Momota are gone.
I'm getting real sick of this. Any word on the others?
Looks like they're safe for now, but I'm prepared to move ten families to somewhere else in the country. Worst comes to it, I'm prepared to send them all to hide out in Uyghuristan or Bougainville. Even so...
It's like...she's everywhere, Harukawa.
Not everywhere. I don't care if she claims she's immortal, she can't be everywhere at once. There has to be a way to beat her.
Like what? We wait 'til her audience dries up and nobody gives a shit about her show anymore?
It's one idea, hehe...
In all seriousness, do you have idea if-
*Bzzzrrr*
Hello? Maki?
_________________________________________________
Grandma, finally! You've been ghosting me for days now!
Doesn't matter. Please tell me you've got something.
_________________________________________________
We do, but first, are you and your parents alright?
_________________________________________________
We're fine. What about the others?
_________________________________________________
Not good, I'm afraid. Three of them have gone missing.
_________________________________________________
Dammit...and Kiyo's been seeing some weird cars lately too.
We actually managed to get the license plate number on one of them: 49461, white text on a green plate.
_________________________________________________
Hey! Atta girl!
With that setup, sounds like they're disguised as commercial vehicles.
_________________________________________________
...I'll do some investigating on it myself. You guys keep tracking Shirogane and the families.
_________________________________________________
Maki, no! It's too dangerous.
_________________________________________________
What's the alternative? They're already after me, right?
If the worst happens...I'll get a tracker implanted. You can follow me right to the place, and finally stop this.
_________________________________________________
You can't do this! Maki, I...I could never forgive myself if something happens to you. What about your mom and dad?
_________________________________________________
Well...I can't forgive myself for sitting around waiting for something to happen, all while other people get kidnapped and...
...And I'm sick of this. I've spent my whole life worrying about these people, that they're gonna come around someday and shove me in some goddamn killing game.
I don't care anymore. Either help me or not. I'm finding them, one way or another.
_________________________________________________
Maki!
...She hung up.
Poor girl's tired of all this...can't say I blame her.
We need to find Shirogane, Esumi...one way or another. Before we lose everyone.

PLAYBACK- PART 6
*Later that night, Maki and Masa arrive in a dark alleyway, away from the bright lights city nearby*
Alright, maybe let me do the talking? This one is...odd.
Got it.
Alright! You can some out now.
???: Even with only one good eye, the truth is never lost to you.
...Huh?
*A figure emerges from the shadows*
Truth is a hard thing to come by these days.
And that's why the winds have brought you straight to me.
And the wind...smells like rain.
...What does that even mean?
...Right, well, good to see you made it back.
It was a packed audience this time, 'bout 1,400. Another 50,000 were streaming it live.
And much the same as last season: sixteen go in, only two came out.
And once again...the parasite finds a new host.
...Who the hell are you and why are you talking like that? Grandma, are they serious with this?
...What? Is Film Noir a lost art to your generation?
Sorry, this is my granddaughter, Maki. She's not really one to mince words. Maki, this is my contact in tracking Shirogane.
Didn't you say you wanted to keep your family out of this?
I'm helping her because I can. My parents don't need to know, and if it finally puts a stop to all this, it won't matter.
Now can you take the hat off and talk like a normal person already?
...
*Reluctantly, they do so*
No appreciation for the drama, I swear...
But is this better?
Yeah. But who are you then?
Shinabe Mako. You might've heard about me...or maybe you haven't, if I'm good at my job.
I'm the one you rely on when you need an eye on Shirogane's operations. And I'm sorry to say, but Season 52's over and done with. Amami and Omigawa were the only ones left.
So they're already looking for new ones?
Yeah...and it seems, in honor of the anniversary of Enoshima's death, they're planning to host next year's game with an "All-Star Cast."
...Meaning people like me, huh?
We know where the most likely targets are, but the hard part is beating Shirogane and Team Danganronpa to them. They leave just as quick as they arrive.
Yeah...but we know what they're planning. We'll put them out of commission before Season 53.
Bitch won't even know what hit her, hehehe...

Today i had to purge all the Nijiue family sprites from my Ibis paint gallery since my tablet was running really low on space (I've been meaning to do that for a while but kept procrastinating on it because i just love scrolling through it and seeing everyone there :()
Seeing as this means i won't be making any new sprites for them, since i no longer have acess to the thousands of separate little bits and pieces, here's the absolute final count of how many sprites I've made for them over the years!
Ayato: 34
Emina: 50
Hitaru: 153
Jiro: 110
Akemi: 90
Iroha: 73
Mako: 78
Which leads to a total of 588 sprites of this fictional family of artists. Wow.

Yeah Iroha - it's really good you realize and became better as a person and the best part, you didn't even need Utsuro to help you with this; you handle this all on your own and we couldn't be more proud!
Yeah, hehe! I'm already looking forward to living through all this.
Just 17 more years to go, huh?
_________________________________________________
That may be, but we'll still be around here too.
I already look forward to all the good news you have to share after your list is finished!
Yeah, haha! You're gonna do great, Iroha!
You did wonderfully, Iroha. Truly.
Just...don't expect me to be forever in your debt.
_____________________________________________
No promises, but it's cool!
I'm so happy you're alive, Akemi...more than you even know...
_______________________________________________
You helped make our little family possible, Iroha-chan. Don't forget that, okay?
Yeah! You're the best, Auntie Iroha! You too, Nori-kun!
In all seriousness, thank you, Iroha. You're the best little sister I could've asked for.
_______________________________________________
...
...
Is something wrong, Mom?
No, no, it's nothing. Just...there's something I need to do when I get back to my own time.
________________________________________________
Ooh, what's that?
________________________________________________
Someone who needs more good news in their life too.
Please tell them I said hi, okay?
Of course, sweetie! I'm sure she'll appreciate it!

Yeah, I feel like I have to ask now...
After all that changes we made, is...I-I mean, are Noriaki and Little Akemi...y’know...?
___________________________________________________
Aki-chan? Is she what?
___________________________________________________
Wait, that’s the Aki-chan you’re talking about?
___________________________________________________
Yeah! Mako-chan and Aki-chan are like sisters!
Yeah, the two of them have been inseparable ever since they were born.
___________________________________________________
That’s good to hear...
So then...N-Noriaki’s...
Iroha-san? I’m sorry to interrupt.
It’s fine, you don’t have to tell me.
Tell you what?
It’s fine. I know, okay? I figured that my son would be-
???: H-Hi, Mom!
!!!
He wanted to come say hi.
*A small boy walks out from behind Mikako*
Hi. I-Is everything okay...?
...
MY BABY BOY!
*Iroha runs over and scoops him up into a hug*

Of course you would Akemi, you would never forget your love for card games. So here’s the real question, have you beaten Iroha finally in any card games or does she still beat you?
...I've unfortunately yet to beat her, even after all this time.
But we'll see how well you fare against a new challenger.
Hehehehe~!

Yeah, I’ve heard a lot about detective work from Big Sis Asami, Nanami-san, and Aki-Chan!
And I’ve meet lots of others people too! Like Hitoshi-sama!
He’s the one who saved Nini’s life from the evil witch!
____________________________________________________
Yeah, he did!
What else can you tell me? Are...y-you know? What happened to our parents?
____________________________________________________
Ah, right. Well, father’s still in jail, so we won’t need to worry about him.
You also needn’t concern yourself with mother. Her reputation is in tatters.
She’s been condemned to the cruelest fate of all...
____________________________________________________
Wh-What...?
____________________________________________________
Retail.
____________________________________________________
Oh...her in retail?!
____________________________________________________
Truly a fate she brought upon herself.
Not that any of us care. We’ve long since disowned her.
We have much better family members now, such as Hitoshi-sama.
He was there ever since Mako-chan was born!
____________________________________________________
He really means a lot to you, huh?
____________________________________________________
He saved my life. I owed him a great debt, and he became more of a father to me and my child than any of our parents ever were.
It’s really nice having him around.
Everyone from Class 49, we owe them a great deal. And you especially, Iroha.
Things may have been rough for us before, but we’ve never been happier. Thank you for all your hard work.
____________________________________________________
I’m...so relieved.

Awww kiddo. *notices she has both Akemi's and Rumi's features* oh yeah. I forgot two women can have kids with each other in the future. Still wonder how that's done?
Yeah, how old are you, Mako-chan?
___________________________________________________
I'm 10!
Just so you know, I am her birth mother.
And yeah, it was from artificial insemination, but she's also a mix of both of us. Genetic engineering, amirite?
_________________________________________________
Yeah, wow...
__________________________________________________
Mako-chan's the best of both her moms!
That you are, sweetie!
