10	'''Warning! All spoilers below are unmarked.''' It's impossible to list tropes for these characters without spoilers or creating [[Administrivia/SelfFulfillingSpoiler Self Fulfilling Spoilers]] because of the amount of reveals and murderer/victim exclusive tropes this fanfic contains.

12	----
13	[[folder:Tropes for the characters collectively]]
14	%%* ConspicuousGloves: There are a lot of characters who wear gloves, some for no apparent reason, but for others it seems a tad more logical. The author pokes fun at this in chapter 2's author notes, stating that [[JapaneseSchoolClub all the glove wearing people could start a glove club]].
15	* CrashIntoHello: Hello Megumi Tsuji, how ar-! ''Smash!'' Ow. Anyways, Yuuta meets Megumi like this, causing her to remark that she thinks he’s broken her nose.
16	* GenreBlind: Most of the students try to remain hopeful that there won't be any murders -- or any more murders -- in a mystery horror fanfic. Of course, they're trying to avoid falling into despair like Monokuma wants, but [[AnyoneCanDie most of them will fail]].
17	* AHouseDivided: Monokuma's game has this effect, as you can't know who's going to try to graduate, especially with people like [[LeaderWannabe Yevan]], who immediately takes charge after the introduction sequence therefore [[FromBadToWorse further alienating the group]].
18	* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: Yevan and Tetsu try to do this to Monokuma, but [[NiceJobBreakingItHero it all goes horribly wrong]]..
19	%%* LovelyAngels Lovely Angels]]: Yevan and Makoto grow towards this trope. They also fit in as the [[RedOniBlueOni Blue and Red Oni respectively]], even though one might consider Yevan to be a rather unorthodox Blue oni.
20	* MeaningfulName: Most of the cast has them.
21	** Fujiwara's surname Taiki means ''Large/brilliant'' in reference to his talent.
22	** Yuuta's name can mean ''Big/thick hero'', which is fitting, considering he's the protagonist.
23	** Yevan's real name, Yên-Vân Lý. Roughly translates to ''Safety of reason'' in Vietnamese, considering her role as self-appointed leader, it seems intended.
24	** Tetsu's name could be roughly seen as ''Masterful strong one'' which is accurate as he's tall person and his actions during chapter 3.
25	** Kuno means ''A honest advisor'' in German, something that is very similar to his role in chapter 3, when he warns Tetsu about Monokuma. Later in the same chapter, he takes on this role again, this time with Yuuta.
26	** ''Child without equal'', fitting for Kimiko as she's SHSL Hollywood Star.
27	** The name 'Akiko Takumi' could roughly be translated into ''Sparkling, skilled child of truth'', also fitting because both her talent and the theme of truth used in this fanfic.
28	%%** ''Healthy/Strong with Big/Thick'' is the translation of Kenta's name.
29	** Akio's is ''Bright male'', fitting according to his talent. As he's knowledgeable with the occult.
30	** Megumi Tsuji roughly translates to ''Blessed Crossroad'' in Japanese, ironic considering the reader first learns about her when they are standing on one the paths of a crossroad.
31	** Makoto means ''sincere'', also fitting as she seems hold nothing back when talking to people.
32	* SiblingTeam: Hibiki and Tsubasa are this, well... Hibiki is the one who puts 'Team' in the [[BrotherSisterTeam Team]].
33	%%* ThisCannotBe: Basically the reaction of the entire group when they find out that they are both trapped and stuck in a [[DeadlyGame death game]].
34	* WackyHomeroom: With all their super high school specialties, the cast is certainly quirky -- and homicidal. Not to mention some of their eccentric personalities, especially Akiko and Ryoka.
35	* YouAllMeetInACell: Since the Yuuta was one of the last to arrive, it isn't clear if everyone necessarily met at the school entrance, but the spirit of the trope is still in effect.

40	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/a439026cc4e93f9584aa1cdf7eb5ea86.jpg]]
41	[[caption-width-right:350:Yuuta Hirota. SHSL Marksman. Token normal student.]]
42
43	!!Super High School Level Marksman
44	* AmateurSleuth: As our protagonist he is certainly one of these, with some help from his fellow classmates, mostly Ryoka, Kuno and Megumi.
45	* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Yuuta struggles to point out that Kenta murdered Hibiki thanks to this, luckily he perseveres despite his obvious hesitation.
46	* BorrowedCatchPhrase: From Makoto Naegi and Hajime Hinata, the actual protagonists of ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc''.
47	** ''"No that's wrong!"'' when he points out a contradiction in court, just like Makoto in the original game.
48	** To a lesser extent, ''"I agree with that!"'' when he agrees with someone else's statement in court.
49	** There's also ''"I'll cut that claim to pieces!"'' when he wins a Rebuttal Showdown.
50	* CaptainObvious: In chapter 2. Really Yuuta? What gave it away?
51	-->'''Megumi:''' Yeap. That's right. It's Hope's Peak's Academy logo.
52	-->'''Yuuta:''' I think it's safe to say this is Hope's Peak Academy.
53	* CrushBlush: [[ShipTease Shipping intensifies!]] He does this around Megumi, of course.
54	* TheEveryman: Despite his knowledge of guns and his talent, he mostly falls into this area, due to being rather physically unremarkable and saner than the other students.
55	* TheGenericGuy: He's physically unremarkable for the most part, especially compared to the other students.
56	* GunNut: His talent is the major indicator for this, though he often monologues or speaks in gun language.
57	-->'''Yuuta:''' ''It was then when I heard the distinctively familiar 'click' I've hear at the shooting range''.
58	* TheKirk: Is frequently able to act as a unifying force amongst his classmates, bridging logic with heart to lead everyone to the truth and a calm daily life, even though he kinda doesn't want to.
59	-->'''Yuuta:''' ''[[GotVolunteered Why do I always end up in situations like this]]''.
60	* MeaningfulName: His name references the theme of ''[[TheHero hero]]'', which adds to his protagonist role in the fanfic.
61	* NiceGuy: He’s a friendly guy who seems to be able to get along with just about anyone. As expected of a Danganronpa protagonist.
62	* TheProtagonist: Since the second chapter Yuuta has been narrating the events that befall the characters that surround him.
63	* QuipToBlack: Though it doesn't fade into an opening sequence, it does end a scene in Chapter 4.
64	-->'''Yuuta:''' this Fuh (Phở) is Fuh-reaking good!
65	* ScarsAreForever: Apparently Yuuta obtained a scar somewhere before his memory wipe.
66	* StraightMan: Somewhat. He's usually the one musing about others' bizarre personality quirks.

71	[[caption-width-right:350:Megumi Tsuji. SHSL Artificer. Watch out for her finger banging technique.]]
72
73	!!Super High School Level Artificer
74	* {{Deuteragonist}}: Though not certain, the writer seems to be heading towards putting her in this role alongside Yuuta, especially since she's also the second one to be introduced in the story.
75	* FingerGun: When meeting your potential love interest, make sure you point your finger at him and pull the trigger. I guess you can say that she... [[DoubleEntendre fingerbanged him]].
76	* GadgeteerGenius: Her talent, paired with the fact that she ''outranks'' her own dad when it comes to engineering.
77	* ImpliedLoveInterest: Yuuta seems clearly interested in her, but Megumi is hard to read and therefore it's uncertain if she even sees him that way. It doesn't help that Akiko [[ShipperOnDeck ships them too]].
78	* TheMedic: Due to her expertise in microscopic gadget engineering, she takes on the role as the improvised surgeon of the cast.
79	* TheSmartGuy: Have you seen her title? It means she’s well experienced with technology, apparently even outranking her own ''father''.
80	-->'''Megumi:''' I mostly just tinker with military equipment.

85	[[caption-width-right:350:Yên-Vân Lý. SHSL Escrimador. Death-glaring leader wannabe.]]
86
87	!!Super High School Level Escrimador
88	* ActionGirl: With a title like Escrimador, you know she can kick some mighty butt if she ever feels the need to.
89	* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Downplayed, most of the time. If she isn't kicking ass she's usually [[FaceOfAThug staring others to death with intimidating looks]], and she seems to have appointed herself leader of the students, though few agree with this.
90	* DeathGlare: Usually everyone backs off when they see this, except for Tsubasa. According to Yuuta, her stare even gets ''stronger'' the more she uses it.
91	* HotBlooded: She even dashes off the very moment she hears Akiko's scream. [[DudeWheresMyRespect Too bad her efforts go by unnoticed to most of her peers]].
92	* LeaderWannabe: Before she outright appoints herself as leader in chapter 3, she already shows her commanding nature during the 2nd chapter.
93	** Chapter 2.
94	--->'''Yevan:''' Hey, can't you read? Get over here and get your [=ElectroID=].
95	** Chapter 3.
96	--->'''Yevan:''' In times of great duress one should be appointed so everyone can act as one. I volunteer myself for the job.\
97	'''Tsubasa:''' Yeah? Well, you're the one who went [[FearlessFool guns-blazing]] on Monokuma and nearly turned into swiss cheese if it weren't for Kuno.\
98	'''Kuno:''' Oh no please. I would like to accept Yevan as our leader as [[IJustWantToBeNormal I don't like to placed in such an open position anyways]].\
99	'''Yevan:''' See? He already agrees to my leadership. [[TyrantTakesTheHelm I don't see the point of debating this any longer]].
100	* PassionateSportsGirl: Escrima isn't a sport you just do without having any heart in it, if you didn't have the discipline for it, it would be not possible to do it for long periods of time.
101	* TallDarkAndSnarky: Well, the tall part is unconfirmed, but Yevan is certainly snarky enough to qualify, and for the ''dark'' part, she and Tetsu are the only characters whose tans border on a brown colour, and she has dark brown hair.
102	* TokenMinority: She's the only actual foreigner within the 79th class of Hope's Peak.
103	* TsurimeEyes: Yuuta frequently mentions that she has a sharp gaze, which flows well with this trope.
104	* TheUnfettered: Downplayed due to being slightly reluctant to head into the despair dormitory because of a fear of potential exploding bombs, but she outright trumps everyone in the bravery department by stepping in first voluntarily. [[FearlessFool It makes you wonder if she even thought that through]].
105	* TheUnpronounceable: Yên-Vân Lý. Luckily she knows that it is a mind bendingly hard name to pronounce for non-Vietnamese people and [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname coined the nickname]] Yevan.

110	[[caption-width-right:350:Akiko Takumi. SHSL Billiards Player. The adorkable GenreSavvy funny chick.]]
111
112	!!Super High School Level Billiards Player
113	* CloudCuckooLander:
114	** One of her highpoints is when she screams her lungs out when she spots a pool table in the rec room, whilst everyone thought she was being killed.
115	** In chapter 3, she says this:
116	--->'''Akiko:''' Wha- Are you throwing a dance party? Hey, that's a great idea. C'mon guys lets move some hips! (starts dancing)
117	* GenreSavvy: From time to time. Like in Chapter 3;
118	-->'''Akiko:''' Oh no! Splitting up in situations like these is bad! It's the most common horror trope!
119	* [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Does this ''a lot.'' In chapter 2:
120	-->'''Yuuta:''' (Starts to blush after Megumi compliments him.)\
121	'''Akiko:''' Well I think I've found out which [[EventFlag character route]] Yuuta is going for.
122	* TheMatchmaker: She exhibits this trait during the early and later parts of chapter 2, when trying to set Yuuta and Megumi up.
123	* PluckyComicRelief: Fills the role of the token funny chick, with her plucky and goofy nature.
124	* PluckyGirl: Due to her her optimistic and trusting nature, shown when defending Ryoka from Seijun who accused her of being in league with Monokuma.

129	[[caption-width-right:350:Kuno Okura. SHSL Espionage. Quick! Cover your butts, everyone.]]
130
131	!!Super High School Level Espionage
132	* BigDamnHeroes: Kuno, when he saves both Yevan and Tetsu from Monokuma's [[CallingYourAttacks Arrows of Orion]], at the ''same'' time, ''while a mini gun was just about to fire''.
133	* CombatMedic: Due to the kind of work he does as a spy he has quite the knowledge on how to treat certain types of injuries.
134	* TheConscience: Acts mostly as a moral compass to the group, even Monokuma calls him out for it.
135	-->'''Monokuma''': Aww, you're no fun! Why couldn't you be the first victim? Ugh, voice of reason characters are so annoying.
136	* HormoneAddledTeenager: Love knows no bounds, not even gender~! Courtesy of Kuno, the guy who kissed the hands of everyone in the gymnasium, cover your butts everyone.
137	* HumbleHero: Expresses this mindset. In Chapter 3, after Yuuta is impressed by him saving Yevan and Tetsu.
138	-->'''Kuno''': All in a days work, Yuuta.
139	** He opts out of leading the group for this reason.
140	* IKissYourHand: This guy holds nothing back; he presumably kissed every hand in the whole gymnasium, which amounts to 16 people. [[PlayedForLaughs It does get a funny reaction out of Yuuta and Kenta]].
141	* TheProfiler: He was accurately able to deduce that Monokuma had a trick card up his sleeve, in the form of a [[OverKill minigun]].
142	* TeenSuperspy: What he is, as an espionage, and a [[TheAce damn good one]] too.

147	[[caption-width-right:350:Fujiwara Taiki. SHSL Memorizer. The memorizer who got memory-wiped.]]
148
149	!!Super High School Level Memorizer
150	* CannotSpitItOut: Fujiwara suffers greatly from this trope during the first class trial, where he doesn't want to admit who killed Hibiki in order to protect her innocence as a human being.
151	* HeroicBSOD: Fujiwara when he finds out that his precious talent was easily manipulated and therefore useless.
152	* PhotographicMemory: His talent. It's also pretty [[{{Irony}} ironic]] that the memorizer lost his memory thanks to [[LaserGuidedAmnesia laser-guided amnesia]], [[JerkAss too bad Tsubasa just can't cut him some slack]].
153	* RealMenCook: Despite the fact Fujiwara hasn't touched a pan or a pot in his life, he quickly demonstrates that he could very well be a chef equal to the SHSL Chef in ''VisualNovel/Danganronpa2GoodbyeDespair'', thanks to his overly large memory.
154	* SmartPeopleWearGlasses: His title as SHSL Memorizer, he's bound to be smart if he can memorize everything.

159	[[caption-width-right:350:Kenta Shintaka. SHSL Martial Artist. The social linking Bruce Lee clone.]]
160
161	!!Super High School Level Martial Artist
162	* AccidentalMurder: The fact that he killed Hibiki is a classic "wrong place, wrong time, wrong action" scenario.
163	* BruceLeeClone: Kenta wears something yellow and makes a signature Bruce Lee pose. He’s also a martial artist.
164	* CruelAndUnusualDeath: His body was beaten to a bloody pulp of muscles, flesh, teeth and hair. If that isn't unnecessarily cruel then nothing is.
165	%%* TheFool: Hopefully his friendly and laid back attitude gives him [[KarmicProtection divine protection]] against death. It did not, since he died and was revealed to be the culprit of the first class trial.
166	* IdiotHair: His is even pointier and larger than Makoto Naegi's ahoge.
167	* MusclesAreMeaningful: Have you seen that guy, he's [[TheGiant Huge]]! His muscles at least...
168	* NoKillLikeOverkill: How does Kenta go out? He is beaten to a horrible, putrid pulp of flesh while simultaneously suffering from a HeroicBSOD due to the fact he accidentally destroyed the Hibiki dummy.
169	* SleevesAreForWimps: Kenta definitely affirms this trope, especially since he wears ''two'' sleeveless pairs of clothing at once.
170	* SympatheticMurderer:
171	** Can't get more sympathetic than being the murderer because you tried to catch a falling box in order to save Hibiki from a miserable headache, inadvertently driving her murder weapon up her throat.
172	** It should also be noted that the only reason that he didn't up and confess to the others that he murdered Hibiki is due to the fact he wanted to see his little sister Ayako one more time.

180	!!Super High School Level Hair Dresser
181	* CaptainObvious: Oh god, they're multiplying! After Monokuma tells the students that they’ll have to someone to get out:
182	-->'''Hibiki:''' Kill.. Like a.. Murder?\
183	'''Everyone else (most likely Tsubasa):''' Is there any other kind?
184	* CharacterTic: Hibiki often places her hand under her chin when she's deep in thought or distressed. An action that unknowingly caused her to die.
185	* SacrificialLamb: Our first victim, poor gal. May she rest in peace.

194	* BerserkButton: Despite being as snarky as he is, he can completely flip if you put his sister in a negative spotlight in any way, shape or form.
195	* BreakTheHaughty: Cue the first victim's death and he starts losing his oppressive temperament.
196	* CharacterTic: Similar to Hibiki, Tsubasa also places his hand underneath his chin when he's deeply in thought or distressed, perhaps it's a family thing.
197	* JerkAss: He’s rude, snarky, smug and oppressive. He cares for his sister though.
198	* SmugSnake: He's a jerk and he has this holier-than-thou attitude that constantly grinds the gears of the other characters, even when he’s wrong. He does not take being wrong well…

223
224	!!Super High School Level Blacksmith
225	* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: If Tetsu's [[FearlessFool fearless fool tactics]] didn't convince you of this, then this statement when he sees Monokuma probably will:
226	-->'''Tetsu''': I don't care what it is. It better start talking, or I'll pummel it to pieces!
227	* KnightInShiningArmor: Behaves as one towards Kimiko most of the time, but it's more akin to white-knighting really.
228	* ScarsAreForever: Have you seen those massive burn scars on him? Those won't be going away anytime soon, nor will the other various scars on his body.
229	* SleevesAreForWimps: Wears a tank-top and is very fight-happy. Even Yuuta states that Tetsu could basically roll as an extra in a action movie.

238	* ActionGirl: If leading an all-girls gang wasn't enough of a clue, then her threats to Seijun make it pretty clear that she takes little rubbish.
239	* BrutalHonesty: Her name already gives off a clue to this, her dialogue confirms it, as she’s rather blunt.
240	* HonorAmongThieves: Makoto literally preaches this when Monokuma explains that if they fail to point out the correct culprit they will die and the culprit will "graduate".
241	* JapaneseDelinquents: A first class example of delinquentness in its finest. She’s the SHSL Sukeban after all.
242	* RuleAbidingRebel: For some reason, Makoto is completely fine under Yevan's rule, something that goes against her already established rebellious character.
243	* ScarsAreForever: Most notably the one on her eye and chest area.
244	* SirSwearsALot: Has zero qualms about swearing.
245	* {{Tomboy}}: See her title, she’s a type of delinquent, therefore she’s pretty much expected to be tough and manly. If that’s not accurate enough, see her rows with Seijun.
246	-->'''Seijun:''' With all due respect, you treat us like psychopathic criminals with an unsatisfied drive for blood lust. We are a group of extraordinary teenagers, however. I don't see any of us committing such a heinous crime, save for a few. (looks at Makoto accusingly)\

268	* ExhaustedEyeBags: Got these under each eye.
269	* {{Jerkass}}: He shows elements of this, especially when he berates people for being too mundane.

278
279	!!Super High School Level Chess Player
280	* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: She is dressed in white and black like a chessboard, donning gloves that even have king and queen pieces stitched on them.
281	* NervesOfSteel: Just like Kyouko Kirigiri of ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc'', she hardly ever loses her calm personality, even under intense pressure. Even during class trials.
282	* TheSmartGuy: Fits this role perfectly. The girl plays chess after all.
283	* SmartPeoplePlayChess: She often brings little trivia into the conversation no one knows about except her. Heck, even Monokuma praises her for it.
284	-->'''Ryoka:''' You have no goal. Not yet anyway. There's no need to make a move if you don't know who your target is.\
285	''' Monokuma:''' Upupu.. I see why they call you the SHSL Chess Player, Sweetcheeks.
