What the Hope's Peak Academy Student Council look like without the green tint. Only member not included is Tsubasa, but even with the tint it's clear to see she has light blonde hair and blue eyes.

I never realized i posted a tier list here until now, but just posting a normal, boring tier list of the game and maybe anime characters is soooo bland! So why not,

(almost) EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER IN THE DR FRANCHISE RANKED (spoilers for every entry obviously)

You’ll need a microscope to go through all of them lol, also, since its an obligatory thing, here’s some opinions on my top 10 characters!

TOP 10:

Sato: I don’t even need to explain it, because I quite literally have 30 times already, if you want to know how much I really love her, then check out my defence post pinned in my profile.

Karen Kisaragi: She is a character that strangely resembles sato in a way, IE; both are somewhat disliked by the fandom because they killed someone for “No reason” despite the fact they did have reasons and were in a state where they cannot think right. Which means, Kisato is peak!!!! (I seriously need to finish my fanfic abt them)

Yasuke Matsuda: Best novel character by FAR, he has a fun character, cool background, nice design, and just overall a nice anti-hero that has motives that you can actually understand. (which resemble sato too LMAO)

Yuto Kamishiro: Another dr0 character in a row! While yes, he is a creepy bastard when we first meet him, throughout the novel, we get to see more and more of him and his motives/personality shine and its just fantastic, while he would originally have been A+ though, what really sold me was when I started my “Full Class-Batch” series with Class 77-A, which made me love him even more.

Shoji Yoko & Daiki Kubo: Yup, the two character we never got to see their deaths in screen form (they’re shown in the dr0 novel), heck, even Shoji doesn’t have a canon voice. But what can I say? These two scream bros vibes HARD, like they’re the typical “bros before hoes” type.

Kyoko Kirigiri: FINALLY, a character that is from the games! She is amazing and the best one, from her mysterious aura in dr1, from her sacrifice in dr3, to her backstory in drk, she deserves the top spot for the best game character.

Hajime Hinata: Best protag is here! Yeah, I said it, he is the best protag. He shines in chapters like 6 and also in the anime where we see his struggles and doubts (dr3 is overhated, fight me). Not to mention his interactions with characters like Chiaki and Nagito, people say he is bland, but I dig otherwise.

Yui Samidare: 2nd best protag! Honestly, her and hajime could be interchangeable in spots, she is just that good! Her development and sister-like friendship with Kyoko is so cute!!!!, and so sad when you realize she protects Kyoko at all costs bc of her dead sister :( and makes it even more sad in the end of the novel. YUIIII WHYYYY.

Mikan Tsumiki: final character in my top 10, I feel so bad for her and what she went through both inside and outside of the tragedy, it goes to show how mental trauma like that can truly change a person, hope she is doing okay now.

Also, for those wondering who is missing here:

Almost Danganronpa Togami character.

Makoto Secret File Characters.

UDG Book Authors.

Kazuichi Novel characters (If any).

Drama CDS characters (if any).

Stage play Actors.

(maybe) some Danganronpa Gaiden/Manga characters

Oh yeah, heres my tierlist template for anyone to use: https://tiermaker.com/create/every-single-danganronpa-character-1204761-2

Shōji Yokō's FTEs

[Part 1]

Date: April 10th, 2010

*walks out of the recording studio and seem tired* Woo, geez my voice is tired - I guess you were right about the genre change needing a lot of work; I figure death metal require screaming but you don't scream.

*gives Ibuki a water bottle* Here, I recommend you drink this - it'll help your throat from growing tired.

Oh hey thanks, so I should be drinking water?

Well it's warm, it'll help with your vocal range and you don't hurt your voice at so just drink that and will keep practicing.

I was often advise to drink warm water and unsweetened coconut water but I had a bad experience with coconuts so I tend to avoid that stuff.

Oh really? Sorry about that, well if not that then try herbal tea, low sugar plant based milk such as soy, low sugar and low acid juices and low sodium bone broth - usually those would help you out.

Oh yeah, I think my mom told me to drink that stuff before a concert so I don't strain my voice.

She even say don't drink milk either which is too bad since I really like milk.

Well your mom has some good advice you should take it next time.

Also just do breathing exercises to help with the range of your voice too; it should make singing a lot easier for you and I suggest hums as well to help with your throat muscle.

Whooa, despite being the Ultimate drummer you sure know a lot about vocal stuff; do you do singing as well?

Well... not really, it's just some tips I heard when my band perform at Tokyo Radio Tower and concerts, and I don't see myself singing all that much...

Oh but I did remember a time when the lead singer in our band was really sick and couldn't make it, it was a really important show too.

Holy crap, really?! What happen did you guys do?

Yeah, I think since mine and his voice were similar we decided I perform in his place.

I... will admit I was nervous since I never sung on stage at all or knew how, I didn't want to let anyone down; especially as this was on the spot too... I had to improvise...

But after getting comfortable and practicing a bit with my voice, I was able to learn to sing and the concert was a success.

Dude, that is like totally awesome man! It's no wonder your an awesome vocal coach, you got practice!

I remember my band mostly pick me because my singing voice was good for pop music even if it wasn't a genre I wasn't into but I wanted to perform.

Oh, right... you don't like pop music and prefer death metal, right?

Yeah and I had to perform pop music but I started to grow tired of it and wanted to change but we all had different genres we like.

It's why we all split up due to creative differences; we just wanted to take the band in certain directions but we weren't sure.

Yeah I kinda get that, it's usually hard to decide what music you want to do.

But hey, it's good to get out there and experiment, so glad to see you trying a different genre.

Wow, thanks Shoji - your the best!

*drinking the water* Ah, it's really refreshing after practice, thanks a bunch dude.

So are we gonna keep practicing like this?

Well yeah, gotta get practice in, but you should take breaks every once in a while.

You got it captain, I sure am enjoying this a lot more then I thought I would! Let's keep going after this break!

*After Ibuki takes a break and drinking water, she goes back to practice*

I dont really know anything about them, but a friend talks a lot about Danganronpa… Somehow I ended up on thinking how cute and funny these two would be as siblings.

Salvage Showcase- Soshun Murasame

What's this? A new Salvage Showcase!! And this time we're back at Danganronpa Zero to talk about the first of the Student Council Presidents!!

Soshun Murasame!!

Summary

Chronologically, Soshun's ordeal happens during his tenure at Hope's Peak Academy. He's apart of its 77th Branch and is the Ultimate Student Council President. However, everything changed for him when he, alongside the rest of the SC (except Madarai) got threatening messages that had them head over to the old Hope's Peak Academy building.

Something that Soshun would soon regret taking, as it was a trap to get the Student Council reps to kill each other, under threat of death from Mukuro and their own motivations. That's not to say Soshun didn't try to stop things. Even after his Vice President, Kotomi, was killed by Mukuro, he tried to keep everyone's nerves, reassure them that the remainder of their group can get through this, and was gradually succeeding...

Up until Karen Kisragi shanked Ryota the Toymaker and everything went to Hell. He barely avoided being sliced by his own council secretary before it became a free for all. In the end, the Student Council effectively wiped each other out, with only Soshun surviving, but in a rough state with a head injury. While this injury isn't shown on screen, given that DR0 implies Daiki Kubo went on a rampage with a chair, and hurting two people prior to Shoji Yoko's death, it can be inferred Soshun's injury was a result of that.

On the flipside, he was alive, but was in a comatose state that, even after a month after the incident, had him unresponsive. Stashed in the East compound medical bay, Yasuke Matsuda, his classmate and Ultimate Neurologist, was tasked with seeing if he could interrogate Soshun and if he knew anything about the Tragedy of Hope's Peak Academy. Something that, if Soshun did knew, might have gotten him silenced by the Steering Committee. Not that Yasuke was planning on ratting him out to those guys anyway, but the threat was there.

As Yasuke started to interrogate him, initially it seems like Soshun genuinely was not gonna react...up until Junko's name came out. That's when it's revealed to Yasuke, Soshun had been faking being unresponsive, sort of. He was genuinely faking being unresponsive, buts its clear he's in a lot of shock and trauma. His act was to essentially escape the notice of the Steering Committee, and, even in his injured state, wanting to see if he could still fight to protect the school given what transpired.

After Yasuke vows to help Soshun, since Yasuke himself doesn't want to let the old quartet have their way and get rid of his classmate, Soshun, gradually relents to questioning. When asked if Izuru killed the Student Council, while Soshun does say Izuru did, his tone heavily implies he wasn't completely sure.

However, things take a turn for the worse when Yasuke asks if Junko Enoshma was involved - and Soshun's snaps. He turns into a raving, maddened, 'thing' that can only scream Junko's name and how much he wants to just kill her.

...Something that Yasuke, who was Junko's accomplice and boyfriend, just can't have let slide. Soshun was so far gone, that he didn't notice Yasuke choke him to death. His demise would be covered up as a suicide and mark the end of the Student Council (because Madarai doesn't count).

Personality wise, DR0 characterized the old Soshun as being responsible, friendly to all, and the sort to laugh even at bad jokes. Something that is contrasted with how he actuall appears post-Student Council killing game. Apathetic, traumatized, sluggish and, prior to his breakdown, still hold some aggressiveness there in his voice. He was still devoted to at least wanting to protect the school from the threats that laid there and is very talented in deception given he was capable of fooling the Academy's medical staff for a month prior to Yasuke being called in. In DR3, we get to see more of how Soshun normally is, being coolheaded under the face of pressure (and even the death of one of his councilmen), faithful in his group getting out of a rough situation, and even being a decisive leader that people listen to (up until Karen at least).

Rundown

Soshun has several ways he interacts with DR0's them of Identity, and the lack of it. In his case, his interaction with the theming has to do with loss of identity following tragedy robbing you of your sense of peace.

In DR3, while we don't get much of him, we do get to see him at his best and what makes him who he is. Soshun is the Ultimate Student Council President, the leader of 13 other students (among others) and, technically, would be one of many other Student Council Presidents who would no doubt be among the 'faces' of Hope's Peak Academy in general. Even before the killings really started, Soshun was a trusted leader that his council did seem to depend on and believe in...

So what happens afterward, when the game starts and Soshun is left as the sole survivor? Well, he's left stripped of everything that made him who he was. His talent? Can't be Council President if there is no Student Council. His friends that trusted and liked him? Slaughtered each other. The school that likely would have propped him up, and usually supported him? Now is very much considering cutting ties with him, at best, or killing him if what he knows is that detrimental. His supportive and kind demeanor? Gone from his injury and trauma. In one night, Soshun Murasame pretty much lost all that made him who he was. He couldn't even keep the last remnant of himself, his sanity, because the very mention of Junko broke him to the point of no return.

In DR0, meta wise, he's also interesting in the fact that, unlike most of the original, major, Zero cast, Soshun didn't actually have any official artwork of himself up until DR3 came about. While this likely isn't an artistic decision (could really just be for a lack of time/disintest in Soshun) it does track with the story's overall theme as well. Despite being the key victim of Junko's actions that kickstarts the plot of Zero, no one really cares about Soshun, truly. Hope's Peak just considered what happened a disgrace on their end, and wanted to suppress the truth if it was too inconvenient. Junko, who hurt him in the first place, just saw the council as easy means to of furthering her despair plot. Yuto wants to solve the mystery to advance his popularity, Kyoko has her own thing with her Dad going on, Jin in particular, while sympathetic, still goes along wth covering up the incident as much as he could. You'd think Madarai and Yasuke would care the most given they're classmates, but for the former its more of a 'wounded pride' sort of thing, while Yasuke (despite genuinely liking Soshun - which a notable thing given Yasuke's kind of a grump) straight up kills him to protect the girl who ruined Soshun's life. No one really cares about Soshun Murasame outside of how he affected their lives, likely negatively, and the story reflects this with a lack of a art to go with it.

Of the characters to compare him too, one would easily think of three guys. One, is Makoto Naegi himself, which makes sense given how Soshun is set-up to essentially be the 'Hope' of the Student Council that raises their spirits. Though, given his lack of a proper ahoge, he was also clearly designed in the mind to essentially what would happen if Makoto didn't have his luck or was placed in different circumstances by Junko. A tragic take on what easily could have been a protagonist in his own right.

In the same vein of DR1, we have Kiyotaka Ishimaru, who Soshun does follow a bit in terms of his story. While not as socially awkward outcast as Taka, both serve as a leader for their group who, due to Junko's actions, wind up losing the ones they care about in the killing game and undergoing a major personality shift. First by being near catatonic, then recovering into essentialy worst versions of themselves after something triggers them to change for the worse. Taka becomes Kiyondo, whose essentially trying to be Mondo in a sense, while Soshun becomes a 'thing' that needs to be put down. Likewise, both wind up killed as a means to an end for the machinations of a manipulative woman and her underling (Taka killed by Hifumi who was working with Celeste, to Soshun killed by Yasuke who was dating Junko).

Lastly, there is Kyosuke Munakata, fellow Ultimate SC President. In this sense, Soshun is pretty much a look into the future that awaited Kyosuke at the end of DR3. Both were leaders of 14 branch organization that wounded up in a killing game with the Ultimate Hope. Despite their attempts to stop things, be it through words or by force, the killings happen after girls they would have been closest too, are driven into despair and kickstart the affairs (from Chisa killing herself via Gloomy Sunday, to Karen killing Ryota). In addition, this game is merely a means to an end for the Mastermind to enact their endgame plamns to enforce their will onto the world. Ultimately, both stories ends with the killing game giving both serious injuries, and leaving their groups effectively dismantled, while the Ultimate Hope gets out alive and more or less well. What diverges is that, while Kyosuke lost everything, he did come out of his killing game with the resolve to carry on their memories and effectively being brought away from becoming a 'beast' himself lost in his rage and desapir thanks to his Ultimate Hope genuinely reaching out to him. In contrast, Soshun was left hurt and abandoned, with izuru not giving a flying feather what happens to anyone or anything unless its interests him. Thus, leading Soshun being unable to properly deal with his grief and wind up leaving himself vulnerable to be ing murdered.

Personal Thoughts

Soshun is an interesting character to talk about, given how he's essentially the DR protagonist that never was. He's the Makoto of a story that ends with the failure to overcome a killing game. While the other games had major casualties, at the very end, the survivors were able to work past their problems and eventually break free of their confinement. A bittersweet ending, all in all...

Soshun does not get that, Soshun is the protagonist that gets no happy ending, and that alone makes him very fascinating to me. Okay, also, admttedly, Soshun and his Student Council are very much major fanfic bait that I just can't help but love.

What were the rest of his underlings talent and council positions? How well would they interact in a proper killing game setting? Or maybe if more of his number survived? It's thoughts that those that, honestly, get people talking about Soshun and his lot, which is probably intentional given how they do exist just to slaughter themselves for the sake of the plot.

In terms of DR0, I appreciate that, for what its worth, he was used well to show, yes, Yasuke can have actually good terms relationships with his classmates in the 77th batch! Jokes aside, I did like how Soshun was also used to foreshadow Izuru's not being the number one cause of the Council's demise with how unresponsive he was to him be labelled as the murder. I also really enjoyed Soshun pretty much living, if briefly, example of the sheer trauma of what being in a battle royale would be like, while knowing full well the person who that to you is out there.

In general, Soshun's presence was short, yet, effective, for his time in the book and anime, and he remains just a nice well used tragic character, caught in the insanity of Danganronpa!

[despair-to-future-arcs]

Oh we meet Shoji! There should be some cute interactions with what I assume is a stoic drummer and peppy light music club member.

*Ibuki walk out of the bathroom and sigh* This...This is unfair, why... why is everyone against me changing...?

???: Hey...

...? *Ibuki turns towards the voice as she wipes her eyes, it was Shoji...*

...Hey there, Ibuki; are you doing okay?

Oh... Shoji, hey... sorry, just not in a good mood I guess; just hearing that teacher say all that stuff and the others agreeing they don't like my music just kind of put me down, y'know?

And then I'm told I can't work on music I want and if I don't like it then I should drop out, I just... I don't know man, I guess hearing that kind of hurt...

Yeah, I could tell; I know the school is run where you gotta work on your talents and nothing else and I do have to agree, you need practice.

Yeah, I'm aware of that...

So what? Are you gonna tell me that I should just stick to pop music like the others?!

...

Nah, I'm not going to...

Wait what?! You...You aren't...!

Wait then... are you my ally against the teacher too?! I thought everyone was brainwash!

Well kind of, I still think what she say was pretty mess up and I could see potential and talent with you, just that you need practice.

Practice? But I'm good at guitar I thought you didn't need to do that, I thought death metal was easy...

No it isn't trust me, the thing with death metal and scream-o music you need to work on breathing and the tone, years of practice and even vocal coaches to work on it which I can tell you only just started recently and since you only sung pop music which is a different type of genre you can't change on a dime.

Which luckily being at Hope's Peak, I can help you with that if you want; I know quite a few people that could help you practice and get better so how about I help, how about it?

Wa-Wait, hold on are... are you seriously gonna help me...?!

*hugs Shoji* Dude, your like the best! Seriously, thank you thank you thank yoooou!

Wh-Whoa, easy there!

O-Oh uh, sorry dude - just happy to hear you want to help me out...

But yeah, if you plan to help me get better at change in music then Ibuki is on board!

So when do you want to start? Should we practice at the school?

Well I do know where we can work and I can introduce you to some people.

So we can start either after school or tomorrow, after all Hope's Peak Academy does allow us to leave the school if we want so how about it?

You bet, I want to start now - I can tell this to be the beginning of quite the beautiful friendship!

'Shoji... he was the only person that never gave up on me and I think was someone who became band members with me, I just... felt happy finding someone that wants to help me...'
