[The world of musical theater has a quickly rising star: Izumi Fujimoto! Dazzling audiences since he was only fifteen years old, Fujimoto is best known for his performances as Sandy in Kadan Theater’s Grease, Maria in West Side Story, and of course his big break as Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz- we all remember that fateful summer two years ago, when you’d hear his new version of ‘Somewhere over the Rainbow’ just about everywhere- If you didn’t know then who that sweet, soft voice belonged to, now you have your answer: Izumi Fujimoto, aged only sixteen then, and already a star in the making! Among musical fans, he is especially known for his impressive range as a tenor, being able to and having starred in female roles his entire career, and still hitting the high notes as clearly as ever! And with the back to back productions to star in, one can only wonder what comes next for Izumi Fujimoto on that stage- but then, we wouldn’t expect any less from someone from a family of stars! The son of the famous wrestler The Emperor, Izumi certainly has showbusiness in his blood, even if it took him in a different direction. But does he have what it takes to wow Most Excellent’s judges? We will have to wait and see!]

[NIKKORI, or rather Konoka Kyou, has been a rather big name in the world of dating sims for a few years now. From her recent game Springtime all the way back years ago, her games have captured the hearts of people all over Japan- and even some attention from overseas. Covering topics mainly having to do with slice of life with a couple fantastical ones, her writing has always been the mainstage of her popularity. That and her bubbly personality on social media. Working with her small studio Uttori labs; a three person group of her Risa, artist, and KIWI, musician, her games have been taking the dating sim world by storm.

If otome games are your cup of tea, it’s likely you’ve come across her games more than once!]

Upupu!~ Your number one host at HP's Most Excellent, Modelkuma themself! A spunky, charismatic young robo-cub who's perfect for showbusiness! (As some might say,). They'll be taking a step back from the spotlight to judge and host this magnificent killing game, but don't think they don't know how to work it on the runway!

Kyahaha!! Loud and proud, Momotori takes the stage~! A self-proclaimed fashion connoisseur, this pretty bird wants nothing more than to see you all put on a fabulous show! While they tend to be the more bratty and childish of the bunch, they still assure they have both the class and sass to qualify for the job as one of your lovely fur and feathered hosts!

Claws out and fur flying on the fashion stage is nothing more than what this mauve feline wants to see, cannily watching everything from half-lidded hetereochromatic eyes. If their murderous nature wouldn't tip you off to the fact that they're planning something, their constant smile would - but we're putting our money on the former.

[[folder:Chaperones]]

Three individuals who are tasked with supervising the students' stay at Hope's Peak's Most Excellent.

!! Riko da Silva

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/riko.PNG]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''"Just like, between us, I totally made that up. Suits me better, right?"'']]

In a field known for cutthroat competition and exacting standards, one might not be able to even get so much as a photoshoot even if they pay another. Careers are ended before they’re made, hopes and dreams are dashed upon cold backroom tiles. But for one Riko da Silva, she ascended the steps to prominence to claim her rightful place in the public eye before many can even claim to have gotten their starts. Born to parents firmly embedded in the modelling profession, she was able to get one stiletto-clad foot in the door from the outset, propping it open the rest of the way herself as she got her starts as a beauty guru and Instagrammer with a canny knowledge of social media that enabled her to network her way to her first fashion show at 16, in her native Brazil. Riko appeared with a splash at Rio Fashion Week, and for two years following her career has taken her all over the globe - bringing this young model into prominence with her unique charm and clandestine mystique. Yet, at the height of fame, she announced a sabbatical to Japan, claiming a desire to reconnect with that part of her heritage and work for fashion magazines there. This provided a chance for her to be scouted by Hope’s Peak, whereupon she accepted the offer to join their ranks.

After her tenure at the academy and subsequent graduation, she became part of the Hope's Peak's Most Excellent staff as Huang's right hand woman, and has been aiding prospective students in their dreams ever since... even if she remains as untouchable and mysterious as she's ever been.

[[caption-width-right:350:''"A-As said earlier: we utilize robots to help us get work done in this facility!"'']]

Characterized by impressive feats of innovation and creativity - the field of robotics has gained considerable traction over the last few decades, with many new faces starting to sky rocket in recognition for their acheivements. One such newcomer is Mina Choi, who seems ever determined to push a heavier focus on the humanistic side of the field. Born in Seoul, Korea as the eldest daughter of five; Choi made her debut on the scene shortly after her move to Tsuchiura, Japan. Being the youngest inventor to showcase at the World Robot Summit of 20XX, Choi blew judges away with her unveiling of the first prototype of her emotional support robot: '''Kinesthetic Intrapersonal Technology''' (K.I.T). Showing much promise at just the tender age of twelve, Choi was offered grants and scholarships to allow her to further hone her craft.

Shortly after her graduation, Choi undertook the offer to help develop HP's Most Excellent's Technology Department. Incredibly passionate about her work with robots and people alike, she's agreed to act as one of your chaperones this trip!

Keiko Kimura was the piece de resistance in Tokyo’s famous “三日月ネイル,” or “Crescent Nail,” for over 5 years, and has amassed quite the following. With her irresistible charms, she’s easily drawn even the most stubborn of customers to indulge in a luxurious “spa day,” delivered by the artist herself. Being trained for years under the guidance of her mother, Keiko (or rather, KiKi, as she’s known on-duty) has learned all there is to know about nail design, from simple manicures to the most illustrious deco nail artistry. Anyone with enough money to purchase the girl’s services will walk away with some of the most beautiful, intricate nails the shop has to offer. As of now, Keiko works for HP's Most Excellent's PR branch, working hard to present the agency's image as fabulously as she presents her own. For the length of your stay, she'll be working as your dutiful chaperone!

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/huang.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''"You kids are making history more valuable than you’ll ever know!"'']]

Huang Zhu is known all over the world as one of the most charismatic reality show hosts to date. His charms have captivated the nation, as his unique style exceeds conventional expectations for your average celebrity. Kickstarting his fame as the member of a popular K-pop band, “Break6Go” (or “B6”), he soon rose into further popularity as his guest hosting on numerous shows stole the spotlight. He was formerly most well-known as the host of his reality show, 脚踏实地 ! [jiǎo tā shí dì] meaning to be “down to earth,” or firmly grounded. The show featured countless guests, most of which were incredibly famous. As of now, Huang Zhu is the acting CEO of HP's Most Excellent, having built the agency from the ground up shortly after graduating from HPA.

!! Kinesthetic Intrapersonal Technology/K.I.T

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kit.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''What does the fox say? Answer: I love you. And we love it too.'']]

Quiet and cuddly is just how K.I.T likes it! Created as an artificial emotional support animal, K.I.T's reactions and personality were programmed to be highly realistic and complex. If it weren't for their form of a four-tailed Kitsune, they may almost seem real! They're largely the playful but quiet type. Rumor has it that they were given the capabilities to speak, though they seem content to communicate through their actions and expressions. Luckily, that shouldn't get in the way of you cashing in those sweet, sweet Kira coins! Now let's just hope they don't fall asleep on you...

[[caption-width-right:350:''"I can't believe there's this many gullible people here-"'']]

The overseer of the Getup Gatcha, Hisoka can be described in many ways - surly, cantankerous, the embodiment of a cloudy, miserable day. Whatever it is, they certainly have a laconic and attitude unless they are in the presence of money - but otherwise, they are seemingly content to keep their relationship to their customer strictly businesslike. Then again, who knows what can come of engaging them in conversation?

Being trained for years under the guidance of her mother, Keiko (or rather, KiKi, as she’s known on-duty) has learned all there is to know about nail design, from simple manicures to the most illustrious deco nail artistry. Anyone with enough money to purchase the girl’s services will walk away with some of the most beautiful, intricate nails the shop has to offer. As of now, Keiko works for HP's Most Excellent's PR branch, working hard to present the agency's image as fabulously as she presents her own. For the length of your stay, she'll be working as your dutiful chaperone!
