5[[folder: Jin Kirigiri]]
6[[WMG: Jin Kirigiri]]
7!!!Super High School Level [[{{GreatDetective}} Private Investigator.]]
8The {{Player Character}}. He prefers to keep to himself, and takes things very seriously- especially when it comes to his talent. Jin is best described as stubborn to the point of fault, Jin has his own ambitions and won't let anything stand in their way... not even family. And especially not a ridiculuous Monochrome bear. Despite this, Jin is portrayed as a very moral character, and pledges to ignore Monokuma's rules in favour of getting out his own way. Jin is the son of esteemed detective Fuhito Kirigiri, and despises this.

11
12* BeingPersonalIsntProfessional: Jin tries his hardest to separate himself from others, to avoid clouding his judgement with bias. In reality, he's much worse at this than he pretends to be.
13* BornDetective: The Kirigiri family is a clan of legendary detectives. Jin was forced to conform to their standards, at risk of being disowned.
14* BrokenAce: Jin is assumedly the best Private Investigator in Japan, and is super-intelligent... but on the inside, he's full of self-doubt and daddy issues.
15* BrutalHonesty: Jin usually just tells it as it is, regardless of whose feelings he hurts.
16* ComicallySerious: Jin doesn't understand most jokes thrown at him, and often just stays serious. This can be humorous at times.
17* ConditionedToAcceptHorror: As a Private Investigator, Jin has seen his fair share of dead bodies. He also doesn't seem surprised when he's kidnapped, and claims to recognise the scent of chloroform.
18%%* DeadpanSnarker: Usually keeps his remarks to himself, though.
19* DefectiveDetective: Jin prefers to keep to himself and forgo interpersonal relationships entirely, which conflicts with his natural desire for human companionship. This causes a lot of internal {{Angst}}.
20* {{Expy}}: If you read into it, he works as this for Shuuichi Saihara. Both of them are depressed teen detectives who hate their talents.
21%%* FamilyBusiness: Detective work. And he hates it.
22* FightingYourFriend: Jin has to face off against [[spoiler: Kotohiko]] during the first trial.
23%%* FirstPersonSmartass: His internal monologue can resemble this sometimes.
24* FriendshipDenial: Internally. Whenever he gets too close to anyone, he chastises himself.
25%%* GreatDetective: As his talent would suggest.
26%%* HatesSmallTalk: This is shown in most of his Free Time Events.
27* HeroicBSOD: Jin falls into this after the first motive is revealed, and then falls into it again ''twice'' during the first trial.
28* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Due to his untreated depression, Jin is abnormally hard on himself.
29%%* HyperAwareness: Comes with being a detective.
30* IdiotHair: Has the trademark ahoge present on all Dangan Ronpa protagonists.
31%%* ImNotHereToMakeFriends: His general approach to the killing game.
32%%* IWorkAlone: Tries to keep up this approach. Usually ends up failing.
33%%* KidDetective: More of a "Teen Detective", really.
34* MeaningfulName: Kirigiri is written with the characters for "fog" and "cut".
35* OnlySaneMan: He seems unamused by his fellow classmates' antics.
36* ParentalNeglect: Jin's father doesn't care about his son's ambitions, and just wants him as a mindless follower.
37%%* PrivateDetective: As his talent would suggest.
38* TheSpock: Hates showing too much emotion.
39* TechnicolorEyes: Slightly lighter purple than his [[CurtainsMatchTheWindows also purple hair.]]

44[[folder: Kotohiko Maizono]]
45[[WMG: Kotohiko Maizono]]
46!!!Super High School Level Tabloid Author
47The first person Jin meets in the Killing Game. Kotohiko is an excitable young man with a strong love of gossip. He acts as Jin's guide throughout the Prologue, introducing him to the other characters in the Killing Game. Kotohiko runs and produces several tabloids, the most relevant of which covers the daily lives of Hope's Peak students. [[spoiler: The Chapter One killer.]]
48
49----
50
51* AbortedDeclarationOfLove: During his first Free Time Event. He gets interrupted before he can confess.
52* ConvenientlyAnOrphan: He doesn't have any family left to miss him if he dies. This is actually a good thing, considering he's in a Killing Game.
53* CrushBlush: During his first Free Time Event, he blushes regularly around Jin, who he is implied to have romantic feelings for.
54* {{Deuteragonist}}: Serves as Jin's sidekick during the Prologue.

56* KnowledgeBroker: He's researched all the students in Hope's Peak, and thus knows a LOT about them.

59* NiceGuy: He isn't outwardly malicious to almost anyone.

61* {{Workaholic}}: Runs several tabloid magazines, which must take up a lot of his time.

64[[folder: Koichi Kizakura]]
65[[WMG: Koichi Kizakura]]
66!!! Super High School Level Boy Scout
67Koichi is a cheerful boy scout who tries to foster team spirit in his classmates. His optimistic disposition seems to cover up his more mischievous, snarky side- and potentially a much less naïve personality than he puts on.
68----
69
70* AlliterativeName: '''K'''oichi '''K'''izakura.
71* CrazyPrepared: As the Super High School Level Boy Scout, Koichi has a whole range of Survival Skills ready for a situation like the Killing Game.
72* MeritBadgesForEverything: Koichi is said to have earned ''every single'' merit badge available, even some specific to his camp.
73* ThePollyanna: Koichi is probably one of the most upbeat characters in the Killing Game, and doesn't seem too nonplussed by the situation.
74%%* TeamSpirit: Tries to foster this within the group.
75* TheTeetotaler: His listed dislike on his Report Card is "Alcoholic Beverages".
76[[/folder]]
77
78[[folder: Taichi Fujisaki]]
79[[WMG: Taichi Fujisaki]]
80!!! Super High School Level ???
81A secretive conspiracy theorist who distrusts both his fellow classmates and the Japanese government. Despite his cowardly, unhinged personality, he's quite the brainiac.
82----
83
84* BrainyBrunette: He's apparently quite smart, and has a set of brown hair to match.
85%%* CloudCuckoolander: Very much so.
86* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: Taichi is scared of the government. It's revealed in the Prologue that the government is funding the Killing Game.
87* ConspiracyTheorist: Taichi apparently thinks that the ''entire'' government is always out to get him.
88%%* DudeLooksLikeALady: Both Jin ''and'' Tokiya mistake him for a girl.
89* NervousWreck: Taichi stutters and seems very on-edge in general.
90%%* ProperlyParanoid: See "The Cuckoolander Was Right" above.
91* SpeechImpediment: He has quite the pronounced stutter.
92* UncannyFamilyResemblance: Looks just like his canon son, Chihiro Fujisaki, to the point of ''also'' being mistaken as a girl.
93[[/folder]]
94
95[[folder: Tokiya Souda]]
96[[WMG: Tokiya Souda]]
97!!! Super High School Level Bicycle Racer
98A flirty, self-interested boy who cares deeply about his reputation. He's a world-renowned bicycle racer, and loves the spotlight. The Chapter One victim.
99----
100
101%%* AbusiveParent: Becomes this in the regular canon.
102* AfraidOfBlood: Tokiya is severely hemophobic.
103%%* AllMenArePerverts: Tokiya is the most outwardly perverted and flirty member of the cast.
104* BrutalHonesty: Doesn't hold back at ''all''.

107[[/folder]]
108
109[[folder: Takaaki Ishimaru]]
110[[WMG: Takaaki Ishimaru]]
111!!! Super High School Level Police Officer
112A harsh, rude police officer who seems to be one of the most antagonistic members of the group.
113----
114
115* ChildhoodFriends: With Ruka. They went to the same middle school.
116%%* CigaretteBurns: Inflicts these on himself, as well as [[spoiler: on Jin.]]
117%%* DirtyCop: Openly admits that he only gained his position through nepotism.
118* SmokingIsNotCool: Takaaki is one of the most antagonistic characters in the story, and has a horrible smoking habit.
119* VitriolicBestBuds: His and Ruka's friendship is... far from entirely respectful. It's gotten to the point where his apparent lack of empathy and the endangerment of her child is an in-joke for them.
120
121[[/folder]]
122
123[[folder: Maiku Saeki]]
124[[WMG: Maiku Saeki]]
125!!! Super High School Level Seamster
126A dopey boy with his head in the clouds, who seems to live his life as romantically as he can.
127----
128* {{Expy}}: Of Dorian Gray, pre-corruption. They share the same childish innocence and pre-occupation with a woman they love only for her art, whilst having an older (or older-looking, in Maiku's case) and more naturalistic best friend who seems to be enamoured with them. Maiku also liberally refers to himself as a Modern-Day Romeo, although the similaries between them are less glaring.
129* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Maiku is geniunely sweet and seems to be one of the more morally sound characters, whilst also being one of two blondes.
130* InLoveWithLove: Maiku seems to value the concept of love more than he values the actual object of his affections.
131%%* LovingAShadow: See above.
132* {{Thinks Like a Romance Novel}}: Maiku is always making flowery statements about love and romance.
133* TransparentCloset: Maiku is clearly gay/bisexual, based on his flirtations with Sadamu Yasuhiro, but seems not to recognise it himself, despite the other characters routinely commenting on it.
134[[/folder]]
135
136[[folder: Sadamu Yasuhiro]]
137[[WMG: Sadamu Yasuhiro]]
138!!! Super High School Level Beekeeper
139
140Sadamu Yasuhiro is a {{Gentle Giant}} with a passion for all things [[{{Friend to Bugs}} Apoidea]]. He seems largely non-confrontational, except for his strange grudge on Takaaki Ishimaru. Sadamu earned his talent from his massive apiary and his strange way of communicating with his bees- on his farm alone, he has several species of bees and wasps, even including the super-deadly [[{{Bee Afraid}} Africanized Honey Bees]].
141----
142
143* TheBigGuy: He's around 6'11 and 255lbs of ''pure muscle''.
144* FriendToBugs: As his talent would suggest. He's not just a fan of bees, but also wasps and hornets.
145* GentleGiant: He's the largest member of the cast, and also one of the most non-threatening.
146%%* GratuitousFrench: Usually he slips into this as a way to [[StealthInsult insult]] people.
147* SpeaksFluentAnimal: He can communicate with his bees in an almost abnormal way. He refers to this as "speaking their language".
148* SuperStrength: He can break his own arm in one twist.
