I respect your opinion on Ishimaru, Kokichi, and Sonia (Nagito, however, is a sociopath)

Definitely agree with Kirumi, she is criminally underrated.
What makes me love Kokichi is how human his flaws make him. While not the most relatable character, he has believable flaws, like his trust issues, paranoia, arrogance etc. He doesn't rely on bullshit like Nagito on his insane luck (I like Nagito, but not a fan of his talent), he relies on his intelligence and analyzing skills. But his many flaws fuck him over a lot, like in Chapter 4. He doesn't succeed all the time. All that makes him a compelling, surprisingly realistic character. Hes so much fun to analyze, which makes me adore him.

Hey, if it means I can headcanon whatever the hell I want for her and say she's a biromantic ace woman with no backlash, all for her being underrated.
The problem I have with him is that Kokichi's flaws have been done before and better. His whole character has been done before and better, even within Danganronpa. Celeste hit many of Kokichi's same notes in the original and those same flaws caused her to commit murder. As for the paranoia and trust issues angle, even Ruruka Andou from the anime hit those before Kokichi did, and again became a victim of her own flaws. The way their flaws were handled didn't entirely take them over and Celeste still felt like a human character (I blame Ruruka's problems on not enough screentime and being for a 12 episode anime). Kokichi had even more time to develop and in my opinion his entire character was too much a personification of the major theme and Shuichi's opposing force, Truth vs. Lies. He doesn't have enough human elements to him - a lot of his actions don't seem to serve his ultimate goal. There's also the fact that I just don't like characters like him that are an obvious red herring to the villain but take up most of the screentime regardless, especially since while not the same as Nagito, he does seem to serve the same narrative purpose, right down to dying at the exact same time. I think that's ultimately why I don't like Kokichi very much; his character ultimately sums up to "Been done before and better". His personality traits have been done before and better in Celeste, his narrative purpose has been done before and better in Nagito, even his voice has been done before and better; I think Derek Stephen Prince did just a bit better with Fuyuhiko than with Kokichi.

It's not confirmed, but considering I don't interact with the fandom much these days after an incident last year, Kirumi might as well be biro ace.
I'm not sure why you commented in the first place since I think my first comment made my opinion of Kokichi quite clear, so I think someone else should've taken that advice.

What incident, if I might ask?
Yes, but I just wanted to say that he's more complex than you implied.

I headcanoned Rantaro as ace and Tenko as bi. This was enough for a bunch of Lesbian Tenko supporters to harass me, send me sexually explicit messages, regularly stalk my account, and eventually drive me away from my income for a while, for headcanoning the wrong thing for Tenko.
I don't recall saying anything along the lines of Kokichi being simplistic; just that he didn't feel like a human when he was actually needed in the story. A character can be complex and still not be very compelling or feel like a real person.

Rantaro certainly seems ace. He doesn't show romantic interest in anyone and his love hotel is entirely unromantic in nature.
Im sorry for what happened. Yeah there are a bunch of Tenko fans who will go batshit crazy when you headcanon shes anything but Lesbian.
Well and I dont agree

I had a feeling Kirumi would be on this list, heh. Very good taste in characters.
And I gotta say, as much as I freaking adore Kiyotaka, it still annoys me to this day how they just killed him off when he was right in the middle of his character arc and he had a lot of potential to develop. Like, Hagakure could’ve replaced him as one of the 3rd victims and virtually nothing would change.
Putting my son on the bottom 5 list, on the other hand, is downright inexcusable. Lol jk

Kiyotaka and Hiyoko both kind of have the same issue and could've been replaced with another character in terms of dying, but I feel Hagakure's looser sense of chaotic comic relief works better as the situation devolves, more people die, etc etc. I'm not a stranger to murdering characters in the middle of their arcs, either.
Hey, I have my reasons.

FluffyKyubey42 In reply to axris [2019-01-09 00:49:10 +0000 UTC]
I suppose, though it still feel like he’s just there for the sake of being there. Like, his only purpose is to be “the goofball that nobody likes.” And I once read that they killed off Kiyotaka just because “there was too much stuff going on,” so that doesn’t really help. And yeah, point taken.
Alright, if you say so. *puts away the shotgun*

These are all quite interesting perspectives for some of these characters. While some I may or may not agree with, I can certainly see why the opinions are the way they are. Personally speaking, I didn't feel as strong a connection to the SDR2 cast as I did DR1 or now with V3, but that might have just been my own caution with getting attached to the characters after the first game. XD
I might do this myself! (And yes I agree wholeheartedly on Gonta gndfkjbgjdk)

axris In reply to WitchyEdgelord [2019-01-08 01:07:23 +0000 UTC]
I think it was an ascending scale on how easily I got attached to characters - I only got attached to a couple in DR:THH, got attached to more in 2, and then if they didn't show up in the Worst Character list or very close to it, I got attached in v3.

I think Kiyotaka suffered the most from not being given enough time to develop, honestly. The game kills him off immediately after he starts gaining some momentum. He is the pure embodiment lost potential...that's all I can say. Oh well...that's what AU and fan's developing the character themselves is good for lmao-

axris In reply to Corripuere [2019-01-08 01:06:00 +0000 UTC]
I mean, he gets that potential in his FTEs and his UTDP events, but he still doesn't stand out to me imo. I just don't like his character full stop.

Oh- well I meant beyond that. Then again, I have a habit of over analyzing characters... there's so many things they could have done with him. Like I said, wasted character

Never got the appeal to Kiyotaka's character as well myself. I agree that he's too damn authoritarian and has a stick so far up his ass that it extends into his brain or something.
Every time I see him I can't help but think if he would ever stop screaming about the rules like some maniac. Fortunately he did, thanks Celestia

axris In reply to SpinoInWonderland [2019-01-09 00:40:01 +0000 UTC]
I think the appeal is literally in him having a shirtless scene and being ripped but still maintaining that innocent element about the whole thing like a male female YA protagonist, which I know is a bit of an oxymoron, but still.
Celestia said fuck cops

SpinoInWonderland In reply to axris [2019-01-09 03:20:41 +0000 UTC]
I love how the DR fanbase thinks a single shirtless scene somehow eclipses his utterly irritating overall character.

I love every single character that you put on you fave list but in the ones you dislike, i don't really hate anyone but i agreed on izuru, i love hinata and i think his roll in the history is important for his character,but in the anime, they make him a complety wasted of potential and that make me not like him anymore, as for sonia, i won't say that i dislike her(i mean, i like her desing, her relationship with gudham is really cute and she's funny sometimes) but yeah, her character isn't even interesting and there are times that i forget that she exist(SonDam is the only reason why i remember her existence) she has any character development and her character is just funny moments and a obvious crush on gudham so yeah i completely understand why you don't like her very much(heck, even star butterfly is a better "funny princess")
i like taka, kokichi and nagito but i respect your opinion, i wouldn't murder you just because you dislike something i like (i hope you understand my comment, english is hard)

I AGREE WITH SONIA!! She’s useless to the story at all! They should have made her dead and replace her with hiyoko because she deserves more. Why did they have to add her anyway? For what reason?

axris In reply to ricesniffer [2019-01-07 12:21:42 +0000 UTC]
Like I said, I think the biggest motivator was forced diversity.
Hiyoko was an absolute bitch and chips, but she at least had a purpose for being there and had more places her character could've gone.

I like Izuru because he's pretty damn funny when he shows up (I have a weird sense of humor) I mean him kicking Junko is so satisfying. Just watch it on repeat In the DR3 anime
We can both agree about Gonta. He's a true gentleman.

Eh, if I want a character to punch Junko in the face, I have enough art talent to make that happen myself, and even that considered I don't think it's enough to excuse him.

GreyRoseKitII In reply to axris [2019-01-07 11:32:16 +0000 UTC]
I agree on the fact he is really OP. But just imagining him as the ultimate princess is funny. For me Izuru is a character I like for no reason.
IDK why. Guys with long hair are really cool in my opinion (I like girls tho)

i mean, I like guys with long hair too - half my fangan ocs have hair longer than their shoulders and most of the others at least have it down to neck length. So like, a dude who should be exactly my type being in the bottom three is like, whoaaa.

yeah lol.
I agree with you about Sonia.
TBH my top 5 worst would be:
Teruteru
Sonia
Tsumugi
Hagakure
Tenko
My top 5 best would be
Izuru
Nagito
Kokichi
Shuuichi
Kyoko
