Danganronpa 1 artbook - Sayaka Maizono
Happy Valentine’s Day. Enjoy the holiday with this classic love interest character.
Seiyuu’s comment: Makiko Oomoto
I remember Sayaka Maizono mostly as a kind, honest, and adorable girl. She’s someone that makes you want to protect her, and I strongly remember how happy she was to be Naegi’s assistant. Enjoy playing the game’s story, savoring the pleasant feeling of breaking through the lies and contradictions♪ We need you to let Danganronpa keep growing. On other note, it really feels good to be alive, doesn’t it?
Kodaka’s comment: The comforting Psycho character
Maizono is a classic love interest, in all that entails. She’s feminine, pretty on the inside and on the outside, treats everyone nicely, but is smarter than she looks... she truly brings all the comfort you need in a despairing situation. I’m really glad we got to hear the comforting idol’s songs in the anime. Since the earliest stages of development, I was already thinking of giving her a twist based on Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho, so her character traits were already completely decided from the start. Her name sounds extremely idol-like, but the main intention was just to give her a more mundane name to contrast with the over-the-top names the rest of the cast has. Unfortunately, I discovered one video game character with the exact same name... The coincidence really caught me off-guard. I wasn’t trying to do that.
One random piece of trivia: when making the demo, I could hear the thoughts of someone in the staff saying “Why couldn’t the real plot be like this?”. How did I hear his thoughts, you ask? Because I’m psychic...
Komatsuzaki’s comment: An orthodox high class lady
Like Kuwata, she became the base for the girl characters. She wasn’t an idol in the earlies stages of development. It all started with her being on a refined, mild-mannered, high class lady status, and there was even a time when she was going to be plump. Her design is the most orthodox of the whole cast. While being the idol character makes her unique, that doesn’t reflect in any special details on her off-stage uniform, meaning she’s just the generic cute girl I designed to be a base for others. That’s why I put all of her quirks in her expressions rather than in her design. I put a lot of thought on the expressions for every character in the game, but for Maizono specifically I put all focus into making expressions that contrast against her appearance. I’m proud to say that I gave her faces that make her look somewhat sickly.
