History Characters / DanganronpaV3KillingHarmony

Korekiyo's sister and the reason he ended up becoming a SerialKiller in order to get her 100 friends in the afterlife. She also acts as the basis for something akin to a SplitPersonality or {{Tulpa}} for Korekiyo when he's stressed.

* AmbiguousSituation: Since all we really know about her comes from Korekiyo, who's ''far'' from a reliable narrator. Did she really care about him? Would she have approved of his murders? Is her ghost actually possessing him? Korekiyo's answers to all three are "yes", but then again he's a delusional serial killer.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: A possible explanation for her participation in Korekiyo's execution; she was controlling to him when alive, but she never wanted him to go so far as ''murder'' for her sake. So she helps Monokuma give him his just desserts.
* {{Jerkass}}: Comes off as one when she's being channeled by Korekiyo. In addition to being fine with him killing girls to give her "friends" in the afterlife, she's extremely condescending toward the others. She also joins Monokuma in salting her brother's ghost during his execution and her [[DissonantSerenity serene smile]] as she does so makes it clear that she's doing it by choice.

* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: As far as the "sister" we see goes the game leaves ambiguous whether she's a ghost possessing Korekiyo or just a coping mechanism his mind created to help deal with his grief. The execution, which shows her as happily helping "banish" his spirit despite his persona coming across as rather involved with the atrocities he commits, only makes this harder to judge. Assuming she was real in the first place, which if she wasn't would mean she was written as a part of Kiyo's character rather than being an actual ghost/possession case despite the physical changes she causes in his sprites when "she" shows up.

* NoNameGiven: As the title indicates neither "she" or Korekiyo ever actually mentions her name, since he prefers just addressing her as "Sister" with a capital S.
* OneeSama: Actually Nee-san but the trope is still there. Serves as one to her younger brother, to the point in English Korekiyo often capitalizes the word "Sister" to show how much he respects her, which can sometimes make it seem like he's talking about a nun rather than his ''actual'' sister. Considering how much further their "relationship" went than respect the exact type being used here is a bit less clear.

An extremely normal boy in an elite school, with no talents or anything... Sounds like someone? Nope, it's not Makoto Naegi, but a completely new character.

* BaitAndSwitch: When the game starts talking about a normal teenager who's named Makoto, it seems they'll be talking about the protagonist of the first ''Danganronpa''... but no, it's actually someone completely different.

* {{Escapism}}: He wants to run away from his boring, stressful life. ''Danganronpa'' is his only reason to live, and he even hopes to be in the show one day.
* {{Foil}}: To his namesake. While both are generic high schoolers without talent, Makoto Naegi is a relatively decent person who ends up stopping the killing game he was trapped in and tries to help others. This Makoto, on the other hand, enjoys watching killing games and aspires to be in one someday.

* ThisLoserIsYou: He's a massive ''Danganronpa'' fanboy after all, and the way he's presented is far from favorable.

* ChildLikeVoice: She has a [[CuteButCacophonic one heck of a little girl, toddler-like voice]] [[Creator/NatalieHoover in the English version]]. One that could give [[VideoGame/BlueArchive Blue Archive's Miyu]] a run for the money.
* ChestBurster: She is destroyed in Chapter 4's execution by having a massive insect monster burst out of her as opposed to having a more "normal" case of DeathByChildbirth, Heck, [[SympathyForTheDevil this even HORRIFIES Keebo]] as to show how much an a [[AbusiveParents terrifying Abusive Parent Monokuma really is]].
* CuteAndPsycho: She's the most feminine of the Monokubs, but is also willing to keep the killing game going.

* ChildLikeVoice: She has a [[CuteButCacophonic huge little girl, toddler-like voice [[Creatoe/NatalieHoover in the English version]]. One that could give [[VideoGame/BlueArchive Blue Archive's Miyu]] a run for the money.

* ChestBurster: She is destroyed in Chapter 4's execution by having a massive insect monster burst out of her as opposed to having a more "normal" case of DeathByChildbirth.

* LarynxDissonance: Monophanie is female, yet like the other Monokubs, she's voiced by a male voice actor. Though this only applies to the Japanese version, not in the English one.

* DoubleStandard: As much as she doesn't like the other students dying, she finds ripping apart Keebo okay since violence against robots isn't seen as gory. Note that she does have the same [[IncrediblyLamePun gut reaction]] when seeing her similarly robotic brothers die (and thus technically also "not gory") that she does when the students do so the standard isn't even "[[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman robots are more expendable]]" as much as it is "doing this to Keebo in particular is okay".

* SplitPersonality: One to Korekiyo in a sense, but much less accurately depicted than Toko's condition. Possibly {{justified}} considering all the cast's personalities may have been artificial and crafted specifically for the killing game.
* {{Tulpa}}: Korekiyo seems to believe he's actually possessed by her spirit, and given how the two can interact whatever "she" is can come across more like this than a case of DID.

* ChildLikeVoice: She has a [[CuteButCacophonic huge little girl, toddler-like voice in the English version. One that could give [[VideoGame/BlueArchive Blue Archive's Miyu]] a run for the money

* VillainousIncest: Of all the Monokubs, while she may play nice, she's still helping to keep the Killing Game going and has the most "interest" in the topic of incest. It first comes up when Monokuma, her father, is licking all of his cubs where she complains more about worrying it will "awaken" something in her and is shown to be the only cub who starts ''licking back'' whenever it happens. Then Monotaro starts forgetting who he is, and thus forgot her relation to him, which leads to their BrotherSisterIncest even though she certainly remembers he's her brother. During said relationship she's the more emotionally invested of the two of them, even when it dissolves into domestic abuse. Himiko also mentions the possibly of her "pregnancy" being from one of her other brothers instead of him as per soap opera drama twists.

* KansaiRegionalAccent: He speaks in this dialect in the Japanese version.

* FiveManBand: A group of five villains that are set up with the traditional "heroic" roles since they just ''aren't competent enough'' to fit their villainous counterparts and instead parody a standard {{Sentai}} team. We have TheLeader Monotaro (who's simply too forgetful and flaky to fit as a BigBad), TheHeart Monophanie (too caring and sensitive to be TheDarkChick), Monodam as TheLancer who ends up taking control of the group for a while (hardly fits as TheDragon given his genuine desire for everyone to get along), Monokid as the tough talking and aggressive BigGuy and only one who does fit the needs for TheBrute, and Monosuke being a mostly invoked TheSmartGuy as it is (lacking the intelligence for an EvilGenius though he has the right drive for it). The Nanokumas also function as the SixthRanger.

* MoralityKitchenSink: Beyond the fact that all the students are [[UnreliableNarrator allegedly]] huge fans of the [[InUniverse In-Universe]] Danganronpa franchise and dreamed of being in a [[DeadlyGame Deadly Game]], which reeks of sociopathy and sadism, this game’s cast has arguably the most unambiguously evil students since Junko in Korekiyo, a [[SerialKiller Serial Killer]] with a [[BrotherSisterIncest sister complex]] that doesn’t seem to [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil consider consent to be all that important]] if the bonus modes are to be believed, and Tsumugi, who gleefully accepted her role as the mastermind, successfully got away with murder by framing another student, and took pleasure in revealing that the students’ relationships and identities were all fabricated for the sake of entertainment. On the other hand, there’s Himiko and Shuichi, who are the only true [[NiceGuy Nice Guys]], both wanting the best for everyone and working together to end Danganronpa.

** Himiko and Shuichi are the only true [[NiceGuy Nice Guys]], both wanting the best for everyone and working together to end Danganronpa, though they can be rude to others once in a while.

** Several students are clearly on the gray area morally, with Kokichi being the biggest example due to constantly wreaking havoc with his antics and even leading two characters to their demise, all in a [[WellIntentionedExtremist paranoid attempt to end the killing game.]] Other notable characters are Maki, whose talent is literally being a professional murderer but [[HitmanWithAHeart is unintentionally good with kids and makes it clear that she didn’t want to have the life she currently has]], Angie, who zealously brainwashes half the surviving cast into joining a cult in an attempt to make the Ultimate Academy safe, and Miu, who is a vulgar and arrogant failed murderer, but specifically targeted the most openly antagonistic character and her actions were only a desperate attempt to get back to a disastrous outside world that might have needed her inventions.
** Even the nicer students have darker sides that are not the product of a [[DarkAndTroubledPast Dark and Troubled Past.]] Kaede and Kaito are two of the most proactive and optimistic characters in the game, and they end up being culprits. Sure, Kaede was framed by the mastermind after specifically targeting them, and Kaito only killed Kokichi to prevent Maki’s execution and because he felt his illness made his own impeding death inevitable, but they still had the will to kill, unlike the previous games’ [[NiceGuy Nice Guys.]] Then, the final trial seemingly [[TheReveal reveals]] that prior to their brainwashing, Kaede was a cheerfully misanthropic cynic, while Kaito was a fame-hungry bully.

** There is a significant amount of ShipTease between Keebo and {{Robosexual Miu}}, and the two are seen together in later chapters (it helps that Keebo is Miu's OnlyFriend, at least barring the Free Time Events). Miu also falls in love with Shuichi and arranges a date with him should they escape the Academy if Shuichi completes his Free Time Events with her, but Miu gets killed off before anything develops further.

** It's heavily implied that Kokichi has a crush on Shuichi. Shuichi is still carrying a torch for [[TheLostLenore Kaede]] and is as annoyed by Kokichi's lying as everyone else.
