Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Kanata Hongo (Makoto) was already famous as Ryoma in the Prince of Tennis musicals, making this his second iconic 'ordinary boy in insane competitions' role.
The stage play premiered during peak Danganronpa fever in Japan — the franchise had sold over 3 million copies, and this theatrical adaptation helped cement its multimedia empire before the anime decline.
