Oh dear, I do believe I have the vapors. This page contains content that is not safe for work or other locations with the potential for personal embarrassment. Such as: A censored spiked dildo.

To do: The game has a lot of development-related text stored in the game's executable and data archive and should be documented. Most of them are still in Japanese. Regional differences and differences between platforms.

Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is the third mainline game in the Danganronpa series, but now the game has been filled with pretty horrible lies.

Rantaro Amami

Despite the fact that Rantaro doesn't appear in any class trials, he has an unused Debate Scrum sprite. It was used in promotional materials to avoid spoiling who the first victim was.

Miu Iruma

An unused sprite of Miu holding a (censored) spiky dildo exists, but is not present in-game. According to series creator Kazutaka Kodaka in the game's art book, the sprite would be used when Miu got very angry, but they couldn't use it "for ethical reasons."

Byakuya Togami

Sprites of Byakuya Togami without his glasses have been carried over from the previous games in the series, but are still unused.

Alternate CGs

In the game files, there seems to be unused versions of the pictures of Rantaro taken by the hidden camera. They are slightly different versions from the ones that were actually used in the game.

Unused	Used

The door is missing some texture to it.

Unused	Used

Rantaro's right eyebrow has a ring, which was removed.

Unused	Used

Rantaro has no rings on his right hand and is closer to the camera.

Unused Virtual World Graphic

In the files for the Virtual World, there appears to be an unused graphic of Tenko Chabashira's name written in Japanese. This is strange however, as Tenko never enters the Virtual World due to being killed in Chapter 3.

Unused Class Trial Graphics

Argument Bullets

Despite Shuichi, Kaede, Angie, Miu and Ryoma always being on the same side in every Debate Scrum they are in, they have Argument Bullet sprites for each side, so they go unused. Shuichi also has Argument Bullets for him wearing his hat, however he never speaks during the first Debate Scrum, so they go unused. Tsumugi's blue side bullet is also unused, since she's only on the player's side during the Chapter 1 Debate Scrum and doesn't speak in it.

Rantaro Argument Bullet Placeholders

Placeholder sprites for Rantaro's Argument Bullets exist for both sides of an argument. They both show Shuichi's face, but has text overlaying it that translates to "Amami".

Tsumugi Argument Armament Emblem

An Argument Armament emblem that would have been used for Tsumugi Shirogane, but it goes unused since she never appears in it.

Trial Mugshots

To do: Every character has a right side mugshot, All of the "right" mugshots are unused except for those of Monokuma, the Monokubs, and Kaito, while the Monokubs have unused "left" ones.

Trial dialogue icons exist for Rantaro, Monomi, and Usami. Since none of them appear in any of the class trials, these go unused. Tsumugi Shirogane has unused icons for cosplaying as Mukuro Ikusaba in her Junko disguise. Mukuro is the only student from the first two games Tsumugi does not cosplay as.

Unused Minigame Graphics

Monomi Minigame Sprites

Other Unused Graphics

An incomplete icon that would have been used for replaying Shuichi's Hotel Kumasutra event from the extra menu if he had one.

Epilogue Chapter Select Preview and Icon

An icon and placeholder preview image for selecting the epilogue on the chapter select screen, however the epilogue is not selectable on the Chapter select. The preview image seems to show one of the event scenes from Danganronpa 2.

Alternate Kaede Akamatsu Argument Armament

An alternate illustration of Kaede Akamatsu's defeated pose at the end of her Argument Armament in Chapter 1. The artbook shows this along with an alternate design for her first phase.

Redrawn/Unfinished Sprites

To do: Do any other characters have redrawn/unfinished sprites?

Both Himiko and Ryoma have several unused sprites for the "Talent Development Plan" minigame which appear to be modified versions of existing sprites, featuring a slightly different color palette, simpler shading, and redrawn facial expressions. It's possible they are early versions of the sprites used in the final game, which would explain why they go unused. The school uniform sprites of the characters in the prologue are shaded in the same way, suggesting they were based on these earlier sprites.

Unused Voice Clips

To do: Any unused Japanese voice clips?

Shuichi Debate Scrum Calls

Shuichi has unused voice clips for calling out to Miu, Ryoma and Gonta during Debate Scrums, however, since they aren't ever on the blue side when you play as Shuichi, he doesn't call out their names.

Audio	Transcription
	"Miu!"
	"Ryoma!"
	"Gonta!"

Alternate Voice Clips

A handful of characters have unused voice clips which are alternate takes of voice clips that can be heard in-game.

Oddities

The casino minigame "Outlaw Run" is actually called "Towa Run" in the game's files, and the sprites for Monokid and Monodam are named "Kurokuma" and "Shirokuma" respectively. The game is still heavily inspired by Danganronpa Another Episode.
