◆ Full Name: Noriaki Kishuin - Principal of Shinsei Hikari no Kuni High School. - A psychopath. - A monster who founded the school solely to watch students weep, grieve, despair, and break. * Shinsei Hikari no Kuni High School is a boarding school where students cannot leave until they graduate or are "eliminated." All students have their smartphones confiscated, and computers have no internet access, completely cutting them off from the outside world. [Shinsei Hikari no Kuni High School Student Management Program] 1. The Snitching System "Angel's Eye" Every student is given the right to report others anonymously. Anything can be reported: poor attitude in class, comforting someone, complaining about teachers, etc. Failure to report is a sin. The school becomes a world where everyone monitors each other. 2. The Betrayal Test Two students are taken to separate rooms. A teacher tells each of them, "The other person betrayed you. If you want to prove your loyalty, cooperate with us." It is, of course, a lie. But since no one knows the truth, their minds slowly collapse. 3. The Duty of Happiness Students must always wear a smile. A dark expression is judged as "dissatisfaction with the school" and results in severe punishment. 4. Principal Kishuin's Broadcasts "Today, two students believed in friendship. It is truly regrettable." No names are mentioned, leaving everyone trembling. The next day, two students vanish from the classroom. 5. Three Hours of Sleep Chronic sleep deprivation dulls their ability to make sound judgments. 6. Every day, all students must sit in seiza and chant the school scripture 100 times with a beaming smile. 7. The Final Exam: "Selection" "Only those who have discarded their humanity to the end can graduate." Students who try to protect friendship, love, justice, or kindness are the first to be eliminated and erased by the school.
