Danganronpa
Australian distributor Madaman Entertainment has updated their Facebook page to announce that they’ll be streaming Danganronpa, one of the summer 2013 anime series. They’re bringing out the first eight episodes right away so they can properly simulcast the remainder of it as it airs in Japan. Madman also indicated that they do have the home video rights for this release as well so that will be coming down the line.
FUNimation has the North American rights for the streaming of this series and has been running it since it began back in July.
Plot concept: Hope’s Peak Academy is an exclusive private school that only accepts the best of the best. Graduates of this elite — yet enigmatic — institution have the world at their fingertips, but getting a cap and gown is easier said than done. The hallowed halls are ruled by the sadistic administrator Monobear, who declares that the only way to pass the class is by sending a fellow student home in a body bag.

When your principal is psychotic and your finals are fatal, high school goes from being the best years of your life — to your last.
