That huge school building was built on a prime plot of real estate in the very center of the city, as if it was the center of the world itself.
"Hope's Peak Private Academy"…
It is a super-exclusive academy, officially recognized by the government, aspiring to gather and cultivate high school students excelling in their respective academic fields.
General opinion is that graduating this school leads to certain success in life.
It is a school with several hundred years of history, legendary for sending its top students into leading roles in every professional field time after time.
Its stated goal is to raise this nation's "hope" that will bear the country's future on their shoulders. Accordingly, some people call this remarkable place the "Academy of Hope".
To be accepted as a student, there are two qualifications:
"You must be currently enrolled at a high school"
"You must super-excel at your field of expertise"
The school doesn't advertise for new students. To be accepted one must be scouted and invited by the school itself.
And so, looking at the front gate of that super-amazing academy...
...I stood.

Upupupupupu~ Welcome to the Hetalia-DR crossover roleplay! All the nations are in a highschool-AU for this, because I couldn't manage to make this fit for a nation-AU. In that case, it will pretty much be Hetalia characters Inserted into the plot. Make sure to read all the below information, it's all beary important...
First of all, for those who haven't heard of Dangan Ronpa...
"Dangan Ronpa (or its slightly longer full name, Dangan Ronpa: Academy of Hope and High School Students of Despair) is a game for the PSP published in Japan by Spike on November 25, 2010. The publisher calls it a "High-speed Mystery Action Adventure". In reality it's mostly a Japanese-style adventure game, but there's some shooting in it. And a little rhythm game." -Orenronen
"Hope's Peak Academy is a government-funded private high school recognized all across the nation as the cradle of hope and prosperity, providing a complete education for "ultimate" students of all stripes.
Thanks to a national lottery, one extremely lucky but otherwise ordinary student—Makoto Naegi—has been chosen to attend this prestigious institution.
But when Makoto arrives for his first day of class, he suddenly falls unconscious, and when he wakes up he finds himself in a classroom within the school—with the windows barred and the doors locked. As he explores the abandoned, dirty halls, it becomes clear that something is very wrong. He and his new classmates make their way to the gymnasium, where a demented robotic bear, calling himself Monokuma and claiming to be the school's headmaster, makes a declaration: "You're all going to be living here from now on. If you want to go free, your only choice...is murder."
And so...fifteen high school students gathered from across the country have been imprisoned. Their strength, their commitment, their very humanity will be tested time and time again. Why must they clash in these class trials? Who's the mastermind behind it all? And what is this shadowy figure really after? The battle against the looming, invisible enemy known only as despair is about to begin..." - Official Dangan Ronpa Website (English)

...and I suggest you read Orenronen's playthrough of it, here: lparchive.org/Dangan-Ronpa/ or play the game yourself and learn more about it here: nisamerica.com/games/danganronpa/home.html
Now, because of the game's complex nature, it will work a bit differently that most roleplays, that is, there will be a sense of real mystery within it. I will lay out the story, and your characters will interact with it and eachother, creating friendships, rivalries, and much more. I ask that you have multiple characters, preferably about three or more. This is because some of the characters will be killed! How will the murders work you might ask? It's actually quite simple.
The murder will send a pm to me stating who they murdered and how they pulled it off. From that I shall come up with "evidence" they may have left behind, and PM the user roleplaying that character to announce it to them. When another character walks into the crime scene, I will post an "A body has been found!" announcement, and describe the crime scene. A school trial will be held in the roleplay, in which I will try to slightly guide you OOC. If the wrong character is named, then the roleplay will continue until the right person is named.
If someone is on their last character, then they will not be allowed to commit a murder, and it is against the rules for them to be killed off.
When all users are on their last character, you should try to begin working on finding the mastermind.
Mastermind info! Important! PM me if you want to plot who the mastermind should be. I'm not sure how I'm going to work this, but until further notice the mastermind will be one of the characters you play or something; or basically how the normal dangan ronpa works. If we think of something else that's fine but for now that's going to be how it works. Please! If you want your character to be the mastermind or connected to the mastermind in some way, PM ME! Otherwise we won't have a mastermind and I'll have to start asking people ^^; If your character gets chosen to be the mastermind out of how many people pm me, you will get to roleplay them when they are uncovered.
