'''Her title is Ultimate Singer (超高校級の「民俗学者」 chō kōkō kyū no “minzoku gakusha” lit. Super High School Level Singer). Despite her appearance as a DJ rather than a singer, she is known for her intently adorable singing, sounding like the cutest young girl-like singing voice ever, despite her 17-year old appearance, her strangely cute singing drives to the point where it’s so good that some fans can’t listen to her singing properly and normally; despite the fact that  they enjoy her singing.'''

Early Life
Before Joining Danganronpa

Takara Yamazaki  was a normal talentless high school girl who participated in the 53rd Season of Danganronpa, a famous worldwide reality show made by Team Danganronpa.

'''Takars attended Valparaiso HighSchool (夕陽ヶ丘学園) during her high school days when her family moved to America. However, it is unclear if this memory of her is a part of the fabrication made by Team Danganronpa or if it was genuine, despite the fact that Valparaiso High School is a real-life high school.'''

Fabricated Past

After she successfully “participated” in the 53rd Killing Game, Korekiyo's memories and past were fabricated by Team Danganronpa as follows:

'''According to Takara, she was born with a mix-race of Japanese and French blood. Due to her wife marrying a french man, she suffered a lot of xenophobic remarks from her neighbors and classmates. To get away from her county’s racism and xenophobia, she and her family moved to France, where she took pleasure of learning French culture, and spreading J-op influence in Europe. Even with singing her favorite Vocaloid songs; especially Megurine Luka.'''

Soon enough, people took pleasure of her singing, after listening to her covers a few times, fans call her singing “so cute that the can’t listen to her songs properly”.

'''In the past, according to Korekiyo, he had an incestuous relationship with his older sister. He believed it was true love and he did not care what the society thought of them. However, at some point, his sister died due to an illness. Left alone and frustrated due to his deep obsession with his sister, he began to develop an idea of "sending admirable friends" to his sister in the afterlife, since she never had any friends while she was alive. Korekiyo began to target girls that met his requirements as his sister's "friends" by killing them, making him a serial killer, with his goal being 100 victims. He eventually got very close to this number, supposedly killing women during his constant traveling. He also stated that he once visited a village where people frequently practiced bondage and became very popular with the village's women.'''

She can’t help but cry over Gonta being the culprit.

'''Takara somehow ended up being brought along with Gonta to the latter's execution. After being horrified by the giant robotic wasp exploding out of monophanie and bisecting Monotaro, she attempted to shield him with her body, only to be fatally impaled when the robotic wasp’s stinger stabs her, Gonta, and his avatar all at the same time. As Gonta’s body is left burning in the fire, the camera cuts to Monotaro & Monophanie’s dead bodies, along with Takara’s who remains lifeless with a large bloody injury on her stomach.'''

'''After the execution, everyone believed Takara and Gonta to be dead. But after Kaito calms everyone down despite coughing up blood, K1-B0 reports that she was just barely alive, everyone gathers around her in a panic, seeing a bloody Takara coughing, and breathing in severe pain. Himiko’s magic reports that her injuries are extremely severe, but also her magic has run out to even save her. Monokuma overhears this and has a responsibility to save her life, since he wasn't the blackened this time (according to Monokuma's rules, only the culprit of a murder can be punished with death if they are correctly identified by the others). Unable to defy his own rules, even after heartlessly killing Monophanie and Monotaro, Monokuma summoned an ambulance and sent Takara away for treatment, saying that he knows how to treat her fatal impalement wound.'''

'''Poor Gonta. This execution is probably the hardest to watch for me. The others, I can enjoy the irony, the brutality or even like Kaito and AI Chiaki’s executions where they’re peaceful. However, this is an in between. There’s no irony and it’s just the right amount of brutal for it to be disturbing.'''

'''Gonta is tied to a pole in barbed wire and Monokuma from a distance fires bees at him until his body swells up from the stings. Throughout this treatment, Gonta is trying to keep a straight face and face the situation head on since he believes his crime stopped him from being a true gentleman like he wanted, but he could try in his last moments. This is part of what also makes his execution emotional.'''

'''Now for the most disturbing thing I’ve seen in a long while, Monophanie gets “pregnant” and dies from inflation exploding her stomach to pieces, her child is a mutated bug which kills Monotaro, and it slowly approaches Gonta before impaling him. Yes, this really happens.'''

'''But, before Gonta gets impaled, Takara, seeing all of this impulsively runs in front to Gonta to shield him. The robotic bug’s stinger fatally impales her and Gonta instantly, to the point where she even lets out a gruesomely loud painful blood curdling scream. Takara’s voice actress is truly a goddess.'''

 

'''Shuichi and the others stare in horror to see their friend brutally impaled along with Gonta in an act of impulsiveness. In order to get rid of the bug, Monokuma pulls out a flamethrower and sets both the bug and Gonta on fire. Gonta was still alive when that happened, which means as he was set on fire, the flames went into the area he was impaled and burned his insides as well as his outsides. Gonta deserved better.'''

'''After the execution, it’s revealed that Takara is still barely alive despite her fatal impaled wound, but is slowly dying from the heavy amount of blood loss. Monokuma overhears this from the remaining panicking classmates and decides to take Takara to the hospital in order to not break one of his rules of only the blackened being executed.'''

The Victim: Miu Iruma

'''Miu was the choice for the perverted character of this killing game, and, contrary to her predecessors, she was much more likable to me. Yet there were a lot of very dirty lines coming from her, some of them coupled with some cringy moments. But she differs from both on how she never truly affected anyone with those (maybe Shuichi, the one she's the most aggressive with). Regarding her perviness presence and comparison with other unlikable characters, I believe this comment by u/cdca explains it in a lean and objective way (thank you for that!).'''

'''Miu was a bit more of it, though. While Hifumi and Teruteru were portrayed as not-so-smart people, Miu was a genius. She has an amazing talent. Although her inspiration and motivation for inventions is usually her perviness, she's not restricted by it, as we've seen in her introduction that she made some inventions targeting productivity while sleeping and she was also able to modify the cameras for Kaede and Shuichi. She was also able to upgrade Keebo (and even create some kind of... "relationship" with him, not without spicing it a little bit, of course). I remember that my first reaction, written in the demo thread, was that she appeared to be a mix between Mikan and Teruteru. The chef's perviness and straight up attitude mixed with the nurse's meekness and lack of affection. I don't know about Miu's past and I only had one FTE with her iirc, but I just throw that I feel this lack of attention attribute in Miu more likable then in Mikan. I think the reason is that I know Mikan is forging her persona and is always calculating her steps in order to draw the most attention possible. It feels artificial. I know that she had a very complicated past that made most of her conceptions of love, care and social relationships warped. But that dark intent on willing to hurt people and forging an adorable persona kinda feels way more creepier than actually cute. In Miu's case, as far as I know, she's just an attention seeker. She most likely had some past issues as she really gets affected when people is harsh with her. But aside from her sudden rudeness sometimes, most of her actions are not harmful to anyone else, much like cdca said. She sought affection in a wrong way but didn't obsessed about that to the point of exploring people's weaknesses.'''

'''On the other hand, Miu was very selfish. She wasn't worried with everyone else and let that clear multiple times. She made fun of people - sometimes in a very inappropriate moment, like offending Angie right after she died. She was disrespectful with everyone. But I guess this is related to something that happened to her. I know that this doesn't change the fact the she was most of times uncomfortable. But that is what I'd expect from a killing game participant if the game here in the real life.'''

The Culprit: Gonta Gokuhara

'''I don't remember which part, but I know I've written somewhere in one of the threads ironically that the game would make Gonta a killer. I would like to say I completely regret saying that. Like Chihiro and Chiaki, Gonta was the wholesome character of V3. He is presented as a scary and tough built man, but soon enough they all realize he's just an innocent soul. He suffered to keep up with everything living isolated for 10 years. But he always tried his best to be a true gentleman. Caring about everyone, offering himself to protect everyone from chapter 1, trying to be useful to everyone. He was the most selfless person there.'''

'''But not everything about Gonta are flowers. Gonta's likeness for bugs is almost an obsession. To the point of automatically consider someone a bad person if they dislike bugs. That makes him potentially dangerous, as although I doubt he would kill anyone, he could severely hurt someone "bad" under the lack of tact and social structure knowledge he has. That was shown in the Insect Meet and Greet, where he actually forced everyone to withstand a huge swarm of insects to learn how to like them.'''

'''Gonta is also easily manipulated. There's no such thing as "lie" in a natural environment. So Gonta takes everything as outright truths. That plays perfectly in the hands of Kokichi, who used him twice. If you can make Gonta believe doing something is good, he does it. And that was what costed his and Miu's life. I thought the Ultimate Entomologist execution would be the saddest one, but it was actually the most shocking. That giant wasp was completely unexpected. Was that the tiny bug Gonta saw all the time? Another thing is that Gonta Alter Ego died together with Gonta, making it even more tragic, and Takara impulsively tried to shield him with her own body, only to get fatally impaled, but sticking to his rules Monokuma takes Takara to the hospital to survive. Rest in peace, Gonta. I'll miss you so much :'('''

Extra Victim 1: Monophanie

'''T-that was scary. I thought Monophanie would be the last kub survivor, but holy crap, that was insane. Her "supposed" child was actually the giant wasp that killed Gonta. Monophanie was the most meh of the Kubs for me. She was overshadowed by everyone on the first chapter, Monosuke on the second, Monodam on the third and now by Monotaro. She usually had supportive lines for what the other Kubs were saying and sometimes here and there and rarely often she said something funny. She first flirted with Monosuke as he was rich, then was seen with Monotaro. And both were her siblings! Seriously now, her interactions with Monotaro helped her a little on this chapter, but I think it was kinda too late. On the bright side, she was the less annoying kub of all of them. Rest in peaces, Monophanie. And I'm sorry for your loss.'''

Extra Victim 2: Monotaro

'''Monotaro was constantly changing during the chapters. In the prologue and in Chapter 1 he was the reliable leader who introduced them the academy and acted like a leader. In Chapter 2 he started feeling himself down and jealous of Monosuke, questioning if their lack of evilness was the reason. By Chapter 3 his memory problem became noticeable. He was demoted to a Monodam lackey - the opposite of the leader facet he once had. And in Chapter 4 he had no memory at all and started forgetting everything. Most of his forgetful scenes were pretty funny actually. He was adopted by Miu but had no chance to share a parental bond with her as she died shortly after. But he was the first thing near to a Monokuma that genuinely wanted to help the cast. Rest in (a lot of) pieces, Monotaro. You were one of the best kubs.'''

Extra victim 3: Takara Yamazaki

'''Takara’s personality mirrors how an average jane would feel during the killing games, but with some noticeable differences. Her singing voice is so cute, that other people can hardly listen to her due to her voice’s cuteness. She’s one of my favorite characters. As she tries to get along with everyone, regardless of who they are. She is one of Miu’s trusted friends, along with K1-N0, because she claims to be a fan of Miu and her inventions. She also feels saddened at Ryoma being openly welcome to death and stays with him most of the time, trying to give him a reason to live. Most interestingly, despite her grudge against the monokubs, like everyone else, she has a very soft side for Monophanie. Like how Miu adopts Monotaro.'''

'''She was horrified to see what happened to the Monokubs, as much as K1-B0 was. In a reckless impulsive attempt, she ran in front of a heavily stung Gonta to shield him from the gigantic robotic wasp, but the wasp’s stinger, gruesomely impales her, Gonta and his virtual world avatar all at the same time. The close up of Takara’s face as she gets impaled looks as similar as Chelsea’s death from Akame Ga Kill. As the wasp removes his stinger, Takara collapses seemingly lifeless as her classmates look on with terror.'''

'''After Kokichi seemingly took pleasure on everyone’s suffering and Kaito coughing up blood, K1-B0 noties and tells everyone that Takara is still alive. They ran to her, in an attempt to save her life, but couldn’t due to the heavy amount of blood lost.Thank goodness she didn’t die. She was about to, but Monokuma called an ambulance to treat her injury in order to not break his rules, despite Monophanie and Monotaro ending up dead in a disturbing way.'''

 

 

 

'''It is unclear how much, if any, of Takara’s's past before participating in the 53rd Killing Game was real, and which parts were fabricated by Team Danganronpa. '''

Relationships
Ultimate Academy for Gifted Juveniles:

Kaede AkamatsuEdit
'''Shuichi seems to strongly believe in Kaede, reassuring her and telling her that "if it's her, she can do it".[9] His presence appears to put Kaede at ease, due to his status as a detective, although she admits that he seems unreliable. She even attempts to help raise Shuichi's confidence by giving him pep talks.[10]'''

'''Shuichi admitted to not having a reason to trust Kaede when murders occur, which disappoints her, although she does learn to accept this since she believes he can solve cases easily if he puts his mind to it.[11] However, this changed when the two began to investigate the school together, as Shuichi came to admire her for her tenacity and determination, putting complete faith in her. He even bowed down to Miu when the two requested her service as an inventor, following suit after Kaede bowed first, which surprises and impresses the pianist.'''

'''Because the two spent so much time together, many other students pointed this out, and some more or less jokingly assumed they were dating, with Miu even crudely assuming that they're having a sexual relationship. Kokichi also cheekily asked Kaede about how far she's gone with Shuichi, but then claims that he simply meant how far they've gone investigating the building when she demands what he meant by that.'''

'''Relying on each other when the time limit was announced, the two worked together to set up cameras in the library to catch the mastermind by taking photos of whoever shows up. Cooperating together like this strengthens the bond between Shuichi and Kaede, especially after they finish setting them up and keep watch in the classroom. There, Shuichi confesses to Kaede why he's so insecure about his talent and rank as a detective, explaining the murder case he happened to solve, and why the culprit killed the victim. She encourages him, telling him that even if he feels bad, he still brought light to a terrible crime, and he should be more proud of that. Placing her hand on his, she tells him to be more confident and keep his chin up, to which he responds that he'll try his best.'''

'''Takara was confused to find out that Kaede had murdered Rantaro, She has a theory that she was framed, along with Ryoma and Miu’s beliefs. She broke down weeping as Kaede was voted guilty, and she voted for Kokichi as she still believes that Kaede isn’t the culprit. As Kaede is getting executed, Takara is shown to be screaming in despair, closing her eyes, and covering her ears, begging Monokuma and the Monokubs to stop as Kaede is dying. The theme and the things used in the execution was Takara’s trigger, bawling loudly over how no one deserves to go through stuff like that and executed like that. She continues to cry in Kirumi’s arms.'''

'''Although hurt by Kaede's supposed betrayal, Shuichi still cried over her demise. He imagined her playing the piano after the trial, and was suddenly motivated to keep moving and break out of the school for her. He still thinks of her from time to time, such as in Chapter 3, when Korekiyo asks Shuichi if he wants to try speaking to the dead. Shuichi is interested in the idea for a second, thinking that there is only "one girl" that he wants to talk to once again. It's very likely that he was referring to Kaede; however, he quickly disregards the idea because he thinks speaking to the dead is impossible, and he only would've wanted to talk to Kaede after escaping the school anyway, to tell her that they finally did it.'''

'''When Maki started to realize her feelings for Kaito and struggled to ask advice from Shuichi, she asked him if he had liked Kaede. Shuichi then thought about Kaede reassuring him and holding his hand, indicating that he believes he did like her. However, Maki then pointed out that it would be weird to develop feelings for someone after you met them just a while ago, which offended Shuichi a bit, especially since Maki then refused to reveal her personal things and what she wanted to talk about.'''

'''In chapter 6, when the real case of Rantaro's murder is brought to light, Takara is enraged at the injustice Kaede faced, being falsely accused of a crime she didn't commit and therefore was falsely executed, this made Takara more angrier as her, Ryoma, Angie, Korekiyo and Miu’s suscipions are true about Kaede being framed. He was later shocked when Tsumugi claimed that Kaede only encouraged him because the mastermind made her like that and that real Kaede would have never said that. But K1-B0 reassures them that even though kaede’s fictional, their relationship was real.'''

Kaito MomotaEdit
'''When the two first met, Takara really appreciates Kaito’s nature, being the luminary of the stars and well as his saying of the impossible being possible. Kaito quickly becomes Shuichi's closest companion following Kaede's demise, and they come to share a close bond. After Kaede was executed in the first trial, Kaito states how Shuichi pisses him off the most and immediately punched him in the face, saying that he's angry Shuichi didn't do anything to stand up to Monokuma and that it was disrespectful to Kaede's memory to sit there and do nothing. Kaito backs down when others criticize him for punching Shuichi, though, and when everyone leaves the trial room, he suggests Shuichi visit Kaede's talent lab. He says that although Monokuma made it, it was filled with things Kaede loved. Taking his leave, Shuichi follows his advice and visits Kaede's lab.'''

In the second trial, when most of the classmates called Kaito an idiot, she stands up for him, saying to everyone that he’s NOT an idiot, but the “badass Luminary of the Stars” re-raising his morale.

'''The morning after, he visits Shuichi's dorm to apologize for yelling and punching him and tells him that he's there to take Shuichi to breakfast. It was shown that Kaito visits Shuichi often and invites him to hang out with him, and makes him his "sidekick". They investigate together and help one another, Kaito saying that if Shuichi needs support, he'll always be around to help him. When Shuichi's stuck with clues in the Class Trial or feeling unconfident in his abilities, Kaito helps Shuichi by motivating him and staying on his side. In the original Japanese version, Kaito started to call Shuichi by his first name, while calling him "bro" in the English version, proving that the two shared a close bond.'''

'''They become distant after Chapter 4 because Shuichi had chosen to doubt Gonta as Miu's killer, which is actually led by Kokichi. Kaito, unwilling to accept the fact that Shuichi had a different opinion as a detective, becomes shocked and starts to distance himself. However, the two manage to mend their friendship during Chapter 5 and Kaito once again tells Shuichi to believe in himself and Kaito, just before the murder happened.'''

'''Takara greatly saddened to discover that Kaito was the one who killed Kokichi in Chapter 5, and was shocked that he killed Kokichi because he wanted to die on his own terms to prevent Maki from being his killer, and to fool Monokuma into ending the killing game. Because of his reasoning, they were able to stay alive, passing many Class Trials. Kaito made him promise not to cry, however, Shuichi had immense difficulty following through on this. When asked by Maki if he was lonely with Kaito gone, Shuichi confirmed this and admits that Kaito is the only reason why he is still alive. When Kaito’s execution failed, Takara didn’t cry like the other executions, but was encouraged and raging in hell-bent determination, as Kaito died from his chronic disease and not by the execution, angering Monokuma. She was once again motivated by the death of another friend and was determined to keep moving forward. Many of Shuichi's happy memories during the killing game were shown to involve Kaito, showing that he still remembered him as a close friend and companion.'''

'''In Chapter 6, Takara felt very depressed when she figured out that her, Shuichi and Kaito's friendship is part of the fabrication along with Kaito's personality, with being a fictional character. However, Shuichi and Takara felt motivated by K1-B0 and believed that their friendship is true.'''

'''In general, Shuichi greatly admires Kaito for his honesty and helpfulness, though he does recognize his sillier moments. According to Shuichi, he has never been around someone like Kaito, and he says that his own insecurities and anxiety fade away in his company. He thinks it might be what he has been missing all this time and that "only someone like Kaito could tell him what he needs to hear". During Kaito's Free Time Events, Shuichi even gets a bit flustered by his own thoughts and feelings towards Kaito, considering that he's a boy. During the Love Suite Event, he also gets flustered when Kaito corners him against the wall and thinks it's hard to stay calm with Kaito so close to him in such a place. In Chapter 4, when the other students agree that Shuichi is a masochist, Maki points out seriously that Shuichi always looks so pleased whenever Kaito gives him orders and appears happy as the sidekick, and that he might just be into that sort of thing.'''

Maki HarukawaEdit
'''Shuichi and Maki got along well after the events of Chapter 2 after Kaito brought Maki to their training regime. This resulted in the three doing exercises together, although Maki outmatched the two boys at everything they did. Shuichi seemed impressed with Maki's skills, and the three began to meet up nightly to do these exercises. As the two grew closer, Maki began to feel more comfortable around Shuichi, although she still had some trouble trusting others. Despite her cold and rather intimidating demeanor, Shuichi is one of the students who trusts Maki despite her status as an assassin.'''

'''Although Shuichi initially only trusted Maki because of Kaito, he grows to genuinely care for and believe in her. In Chapter 3, when Maki confides in him about her not feeling "human", Shuichi assured her that he can relate, as he has his own insecurities about his work as a detective. Because of this, Shuichi strongly supported Kaito's decision to take down Maki's "mask", as he believed he is the only one who can help her open up.'''

'''During murders, Maki often reminds Shuichi to "get a grip" as he is the detective. She even assisted Shuichi during Chapter 3's investigation, helping him creating hypotheses and finding clues. When on the discussion of Tenko's last moments, Shuichi and Maki work together to lie about Tenko dying instantly, so she wouldn't be able to kill herself inside the cage, despite Maki being the one who suggested this method in the first place. Shuichi told Maki that she helped him a lot with the investigation, although Maki only said that she found him surprisingly reliable during the investigation.'''

'''During the events of the virtual world in Chapter 4, Maki did make a point to remind Shuichi that he's a person before he's a detective, which he's touched by, despite her telling him he's more reliable during a murder case than daily life. Nonetheless, it's apparent the two have grown quite close to each other, with her asking if he's okay, making sure if he and Kaito aren't fighting when Shuichi forcibly logged him out to test something.'''

'''In Chapter 5, their relationship is slightly strained after Kokichi captured Kaito. When Maki attempted to save him, Shuichi held her back out of fear for her safety, claiming he didn't care if she is upset with his decision, or even wanted to kill him. Although Maki backs down, she angrily calls him a coward, to Shuichi's dismay. During the fifth trial, she repeatedly attempts to steer the crime into her own fault, threatening and insulting Shuichi when said Kaito was the one who survived, claiming that he was getting in her way to defeat Kokichi. Shuichi was visibly saddened by the fact that Maki did not share his belief in Kaito's survival, as he thought she would take his side on the matter. Despite this, he still strongly wanted to believe in Maki when it started to appear as if she was the culprit, and appeared relieved when Maki's testimony turned out to be flawed, proving she was not Kaito's killer. However, the two came to a disagreement again after Shuichi suggested Kaito murdered Kokichi until Kaito came out and confirmed Shuichi's story.'''

'''After Kaito's execution in Chapter 5, Maki and Shuichi went to their normal training spot and had a short, but emotional conversation about the events that had transpired, seemingly putting their previous falling out behind them and mending their friendship. Joined by Tsumugi and Himiko, they trained together and mourned Kaito. Shuichi and Maki then resolve to put an end to the Killing Game together along with everyone else.'''

'''During Chapter 6, Shuichi and Maki rely on one another as they investigate the school together. Shuichi expressed happiness at the fact that he and Maki have reached the point where he can tell that she's joking. During the last trial, it was partially because of Maki and K1-B0's offer to sacrifice herself that inspired Shuichi to abandon his vote, as he admitted the thought of Maki dying scared him due to what happened to Kaede and Kaito. Shuichi gave Maki courage to end the Killing Game, which resulted in her abandoning her vote as well. The two, along with Himiko and Shuichi later survived together, escaping to the outside world, wandering into what awaits for them.'''

 

Kokichi OmaEdit
'''Takara didn't trust Kokichi due to his lying and unpredictable actions, and is irritated by his lying, insulting behavior. In turn, Kokichi appeared to be amused by and in some way fond of Takara, having stated that she finds him interesting which is a very rare and notable compliment coming from her. Kokichi also enjoys her company, like Shuichi, finding her one of the most interesting people in the group and praising her at times. He has also more than once mentioned that he is "constantly thinking about" Shuichi, and claims that he is his favorite who he loves the most. On his whiteboard, it's shown that Kokichi has a more positive, though slightly unclear impression of Shuichi, considering him "trustworthy?". Considering his hatred of boredom, it seems Kokichi is intrigued by Shuichi's development. During the trials, he often does not reveal Shuichi's lies even though he notices them. He occasionally made fun of Shuichi's nervous personality, calling his hat "emo hat" and calling him and Tsumugi a "plain pair".'''

While he enjoys messing with him, Kokichi appears to feel some care for Shuichi and seems to be unwilling to actually harm him.

'''In the second class trial's back route, Kokichi notices Shuichi's lie, but decides not to say anything about it, instead, he supports Shuichi to present the evidence of Kirumi's crime since she's the only one who can do it. Shuichi thinks of Kokichi's actions as an "unexpected assist".'''

'''During Chapter 3, When Kokichi faked his death, Takara looks on with horror, disgusted at why Kokichi didn’t tend his concussion to only play a sick prank on them. As he stumbles to the class trial, light headed from his injury, Takara, being the kind hearted girl she is, helps him out. And when Kokichi says something clever or when Shuichi agrees with one of his theories, Takara reculantly praises him for saying something so clever, shocking Kokichi, saying that he hardly gets a compliment like that.'''

'''During Chapter 4, when everyone is inside the Neo World Program, Kokichi claims he would cry if something happened to Shuichi with a worried expression. When they're alone, he tries to offer his support for Shuichi, saying he wants to use him but also be useful to Shuichi as well. He attempts to separate Shuichi and Kaito, telling Shuichi that he should be his friend instead. Kokichi says he can help Shuichi save everyone, but Shuichi doesn't trust him and leaves without saying a word. Kokichi then mutters to himself about being dumped and rejected by Shuichi, but he says he won't give up that easily. Kokichi then helps Shuichi during the investigation and begins to call himself Shuichi's partner. He also tries to keep Kaito away from Shuichi, claiming that Kaito and his beliefs are a bad influence on Shuichi and that Shuichi is the only one who can save them, angering Takara for stealing Kaito’s role.'''

'''During the fourth class trial, Kokichi keeps making fun of Kaito, especially whenever Kaito and Shuichi have a disagreement, angering Takara because of him enjoying that bad parts of a class trial. After Gonta's execution, Kokichi seems to lose some of his sanity and begins to act exaggeratedly "evil". When he is unsympathetic to Gonta into manipulating him to kill Miu when she had plans to Kill Kokichi. She screams at his face, screaming at him for his cruelness of someone slow-learning like Gonta, Kokichi could only mock her, taking pleasure of her sobs and misery; causing her to wail for the rest of the chapter.'''

'''In Chapter 5, When Kaito tells everything about why he killed Kokichi, Takara was shocked with the fact that Kokichi isn’t the mastermind and how he came up with a clever plan to die on his own terms so that Maki won’t become the blackened and to have himself die into a bloody mess by a press machine to fool Monokuma into making the victim unknown, to baffle him enough to stop the killing game. Takara says that despite her being angry at him for what he did to Gonta, she praises him for his clever plan to fool Monokuma.'''

Tsumugi ShiroganeEdit
'''The two were on good terms with each other and actually tried to help each other with Shuichi with the situation. However, in Chapter 6, Takara was shocked and livid at Tsumugi for being Rantaro’s killer and the true mastermind of the killing game. Despite this, she still wanted her to argue, wanting her to speak up, right before she cosplays as Junko and takes the entire killing game into uncharted territory in fiction.'''

'''When she acknowledges his claims that she was the one who killed Rantaro and framed Kaede for Rantaro's death, Takara broke all former ties with her, she realizes she is the true mastermind behind these killing games, and not Junko. Takara became heavily depressed, suicidal, and noticeably lifeless in despair when Tsumugi told her that her and her comrades’ memories, feelings, talent, and personality were all fabricated for the sake of the killing game, and how she is just a fictional character with no meaning. Monokuma and Tsumugi took pleasure of Takara’s sobs as she lays on the floor, lifeless and sobbing in despair, with the thought of EVERYTHING being a lie. But, miraculously, she is brought back to her senses when K1-B0 motivated Shuichi to not give up and lose hope. And to reject both hope and despair to convince the entire audience to not enjoy the killing games anymore.'''

Gonta GokuharaEdit
'''Takara treats Gonta gentle and patient manner, as he understands that Gonta is a very kind and innocent person, knowing about his past of living in a forest caused him to lack cultural and social knowledge However, she is somewhat frightened whenever Gonta loses his temper. When Kokichi takes advantage of Gonta’s weakness, she rebukes him not to use him, despite the fact that he doesn’t know so much, And scolds Miu for running around half-naked to escape from Gonta, saying that he doesn’t know about sexual things like that. During the fourth trial, Takara is more baffled at the idea of Gonta being the culprit, However, despite believing that Gonta isn’t the culprit, she desperately tries to think sensibly, like Shuichi, wanting to believe in Gonta; showing off her very kind hearted nature. As more evidence points to Gonta, Takara’s shock gets in her way of thinking sensibility and refuses to believe Gonta killed Miu. while Shuichi shocked Gonta with kindness and patience, stops Kokichi from making him feel even worse, with a very gentle but serious manner. She is heartbroken after finding out that he couldn’t remember the accidental murder, due to his memory being wiped from improperly connecting the consciousness and memory coords. When takara was in the hospital after Gonta's execution, she is briefly seen crying, much like Shuichi, Tsumugi and Himiko. She wails in anger at Kokichi after he exposes how unsympathetic he literally is to Gonta, manipulating him to Kill Miu because Miu was planning to kill Kokichi, this angers Takara to no end, yelling at Kokichi for being such a heartless bastich to a kind, slow-learning man like Gonta, while Kokichi insults Gonta, Kaito and Maki, he takes pleasure of Takara’s anger and misery, mocking her for crying all the time, Takara is shown to be sobbing for the rest of the chapter, livid to no end at Kokichi. During Gonta’s execution. Takara recklessly and impulsively runs in front of a heavily stung Gonta to shield him after seeing a giant robotic wasp explode out of Monophanie. As she tried to guard Gonta, the robotic wasp’s stinger, fatally impales her, Gonta and his avatar all at the same time, sticking to his rules, Monokuma took Takara to the hospital so that she could recover.'''

Rantaro AmamiEdit
'''When Rantaro met Kaede and Shuichi, Shuichi seemed confused about how Rantaro mentioned about everyone gathering and getting amnesia. He thinks he is some way mysterious and has some clues about his backstory. Rantaro is shown to have strong faith in Shuichi's abilities and considers him a real detective even though Shuichi himself doesn't. Later in Chapter 1, Shuichi became quite hostile towards Rantaro based on his suspicions about him being the mastermind and forgetting his talent.'''

K1-B0Edit
'''At first, Takara is surprised with K1-B0 is a robot and also their classmates, and appears be nicer towards K1-B0 than most of the other students, she doesn’t say things that are “robophobic” to K1-B0. This causes K1-B0 to feel comfortable around her and trust her, just like he does with Miu. In Chapter 2, after Kokichi tells Gonta (with Tenko’s help) to use K1-B0 like a batter ram to flush out the water from the tank, Takara rebukes Kokichi and helps K1-B0 out, knowing how he feels about being used as an object.'''

'''In the climax of Chapter 6, after K1-B0’s inner voice (the audience’s survey) tells him to remedy the situation, Shuichi rejecting hope and concluding to the fact that the audience wants hope, ignoring the tragedies they had to suffer to do so, Takara snaps out of her despair, wanting to help. Once she abandons the game along with K1-B0, Shuichi, Maki, and Himiko she is heartbroken when the audience took a vote to erase K1-B0’s personality in response to everyone abandoning the game.'''

After she survives the execution from the ending of the entire Danganronpa series along with Shuichi, Maki, and Himiko, she wonders if this because the audience wants them to survive despite the fact that they don’t love killing games anymore, or the fact that K1-B0 regained control of his personality; doing this for himself in hopes that his four remaining friends had survived.

Miu Iruma
'''When Takara first met Miu,, she was easily startled by Miu’s strongly sexual foul-mouthed behavior. Miu then called Takara a freaked chick as a result. In an attempt to make Miu feel nicer, she stated that she’s interested in her inventions and is a fan of hers, which makes Miu turn on, feeling sexual attracted and excited to her, this startles Takara about someone as rude as Miu is can feel sexually attracted and excited about her, appreciating her golden brain.'''

'''Throughout the game, Miu is sexually attracted to Takara due to her being a fan of her inventions and has an interest in science, and when she insults other characters, or guesses the correct culprit right after the trial as started, She rebukers her, telling her not to guess before they fully solve the murder making her feel like a masochist (similar to how she feels when Kokichi insults her) enjoying Takara’s rebuking to her, reminding her to be nicer to her friends, even though she doesn’t listen. And during Chapter 3’s trial. When Miu wanted the thanks for giving K1-B0 the image recording function, she thanks her for saving all of their hides, turning her on.'''

'''Like K1-B0, Takara is one of the two friends Miu trusts. Due to her interest in science and inventions. When Miu dies in Chapter 4, Takara claims that despite her rocky relationships with us, she’s very trustworthy. And is more heartbroken for her when she found out that she attempted to kill Kokichi, which caused him to manipulate Gonta’s avatar into icing her instead.'''

Kirumi TojoEdit
'''When they first met, Takara is pleased at how Kirumi wishes to serve everyone as her request. She seems to care for Kirumi and decides to serve her as well, despite her not wanting too. After Kaede’s execution, Takara wails over how abominable it was to be even be an execution. Kirumi allowed herself if she needed a shoulder to cry on, which Takara accepts, crying in Kirumi’s arms as she comforts her and hugs her.'''

'''When Shuichi pointed Kirumi out as the culprit in the second trial. Takara gets baffled, asking why Kirumi would do such a thing to someone as suicidal as Ryoma is; even after everyone she did for them, but after Kirumi gets more erratic, she said that she doubt Kirumi, but also wants to believe in her, She seems to be also one of those people who tried to tell Kirumi to run away from her execution, despite her fears of Monokuma’s execution for her. Takara breaks down bawling after witnessing her excrusgly brutal execution and death, noting how much Kirumi has done for them despite being Ryoma’s killer with his permission.'''

Angie Yonaga

'''Takara is shown to be in good terms with Angie Yonaga, learning about her Polyseian Culture and religious beliefs. To be on Angie’s good side, she also acts like she believes in Atua. But she hides the fact that she’s also Angie’s friend in front of the others, seeing how some of them, including Miu, and Tenko are VERY ticked by her overly religious persona. She was the only one who felt heart warmed at Angie and Himiko’s friendship. Takara seems to be the only one who understands her beliefs, and stands up for her when someone insults her or is angry at her for believing in Atua all the time. She is shown to be heavily heartbroken after Korekiyo killed her in order to keep her from talking, and Felt insulted after Miu took pleasure in Angie perishing from her existence.'''

Korekiyo ShingujiEdit
When first met, Takara likes how calm and mysterious he is, after hearing about his Ultimate Talent, she wishes to learn more about Anthropology, in which Kiyo gladly accepts to teach her all about his studies of Anthropology.

'''As the Killing Game continues, Takara notices Kiyo’s creepy nature, but still has trust in him. In Chapter 3’s trial, when Kiyo is cornered as the culprit, Takar,  like before gets confused about why he’d do such a thing despite his nature. And when a panicking Kiyo used his tupla resembling his sister to calm himself down, She gets very baffled. And when Kiyo was exposed as a serial killer to give his sister 100 friends in the afterlife, Takara gets scared, wondering if she was next, despite the fact that Monokuma doesn’t allow 3 people as murder victims. But Kiyo assures her that she isn’t fit to be his sister’s friend in death,  because she is HIS friend during the whole time, which makes her relieved, but still scared After Korekiyo was executed by Monokuma for his wrongdoing for killing Angie and Tenko, Takara has conflicted feelings about him. She still trusted him as a friend after learning so much about Anthropology from him, yet he doubted Korekiyo would stop killing more victims for his sister even after they survive, and how she was a possible victim for Kiyo to be his sister’s friend in the afterlife.'''

 

Ryoma HoshiEdit
'''Takara is surprised how Ryoma is, that despite his soft small appearance, he has a very low deep voice. But their true relationship blooms when Ryoma tells Shuichi, Takara and Kaede says that being trapped inside a school for a killing game is better than prison’s death sentence, Takara is shown to be sympathetic and compassionate to Ryoma due to his depressive and suicidal mood, while everyone besides him wanted to survive the Killing Game. She is saddened to how welcoming Ryoma seems towards death, not understanding why he could be so suicidal of a killing game is like a death sentence in prison. However, deep inside, she wanted Ryoma to "wake up" and have a will to live, when Ryoma told her about his past as a mafia killed all of his comrades,he killed the mafia in return, being sentenced to death row, and then ended up in the Ultimate Academy likely due to the meteorites and the Gofer Project. Before Rantaro died, Takara hugged Ryoma, saying that she understands how he feels. When everyone was mocking her for being a mixed-race girl, making her believe how rotten the world can be, before she found a new life. She tried to give Ryoma a reason to survive, live and not die, saying that his true reason to live, is for his new friends, everyone trapped inside the school with him. This seems to comfort him a little, with him choosing to survive with Shuichi to find a reason to live. '''

'''Upon learning the truth about Ryoma's intention to find out his reason to live in order to regain his spirit to fight alongside the others, and after seeing Ryoma’s motive video, Takara broke down crying, noting how that motive video wasn’t a motive to kill or a motive to live, but a motive to DIE. She feels more remorse, saying that she gave Ryoma a reason to live, and it’s because of them, and couldn’t understand why Ryoma lost all of his will to live after she gave him a true motive before Rantaro died. And when everyone’s pasts are revealed to be fabricated lies, Takara is confused about how Ryoma would feel if he survived long enough to find out that his tragic past as was a lie. She believes that he would be somewhat relieved, but also very pissed over the fact that he ended up very suicidal for no apparent reason, and he would have a will to use his life as a weapon to end Danganronpa and survive with this remaining friends.'''
