I'm Done Being the Mastermind

Jiang Zhidao Yingguang has just received his admission letter from Hope's Peak Academy when the suddenly appearing comments on screen reveal the truth about the world he lives in... This is a crossover project between the Danganronpa production team and Bungou Stray Dogs, currently preparing to stream an animated series to audiences in another world. And the comments unanimously agree that he, Jiang Zhidao Yingguang, is the mastermind behind the crossover anime, the [Ultimate Despair]. They all say they want to see a despair-filled story brought to them by the mastermind. To meet the audience's expectations, Jiang Zhidao Yingguang takes charge of building the stage, creating motives, and whipping up excitement. He even plays two roles, acting as an alternate-universe version of himself, and carefully presents the audiences in another world with a despairingly entertaining story... A genuine mutual slaughter between the alternate versions of Chuuya, Dazai, Ranpo, and the others from both worlds. But as the anime's plot reaches its climax, the comments, which once clamored for despair, start saying... [Watching them kill each other hurts so much. I can't stop crying. Please give me some hope, sob...] [I can't wait to see the moment hope triumphs over despair!] [Hope will prevail!] Yingguang (slowly types a question mark): Weren't you supposed to like despair? You all just wanted to see hope after all!! After realizing what the production team and audiences really wanted, Yingguang makes a decision: He's done being the mastermind! He's going to break through the wall between worlds and rewrite the script at its source! And so, on the otherworldly forums: [Breaking news: A fictional character has come to our world!!] [Danganronpa production team, you're in danger, ] [Yingguang says he's going to find his creator, huh?] [The Danganronpa production team?] [No, no, I heard the character who created Yingguang was that detective...] *CP: the real cult leader and Saihara Shuichi *The protagonist's public persona is similar to a gender-swapped alternate version of Junko. The Danganronpa elements mainly draw on V3. *There are character death scenes (as believed by the comment-section viewers and the alternate versions participating in the mutual slaughter), but nobody really dies. The truth will be revealed later. *There are lots of original interpretations, so some out-of-character moments are inevitable. And now, a new upcoming story.

Now the two have been forced apart. What should he do? Let the world without my buddy be destroyed (X) I'll create a world where my buddy exists (check) The Beyond-the-Limit Dazai cosplayer immediately follows the example of the Boss Dazai next door and writes up a five-step plan: Stage One: Infiltrate the Seven Traitors and meddle in the Ability War. Stage Two: Restore the shogunate in Japan and seize absolute power as shogun. Stage Three: Serve as one of the Five Executive Leaders while secretly controlling the world. Stage Four: Take the [Book], connect parallel worlds, and start a multiverse war. Stage Five: Shake the laws of the world and add Dantan's character to every timeline. His buddy's take: The world gets rebooted at the end? Did you steal that script from the DC production team next door? Your character sounds like some ultimate villain from the dark multiverse. Beyond-the-Limit Dazai cosplayer: ? I clearly got the script for a protagonist who falls to darkness! What do you make of the Beyond-the-Limit Dazai cosplayer? "His Excellency the Shogun, the strongest transcendent, the god of abilities!" "An ambitious schemer guilty of countless crimes." "A partner with ideals and convictions." "Dazai-kun, gone mad as he toys with the world to bring his friend back to life." *His buddy's full name is Dantan Kazuo. *The Beyond-the-Limit Dazai cosplayer is powerful and crazy, and reaches maximum combat strength later on.
