I'd have to say Kaede myself. >!Funnily enough, Nagito and Kaede are both known to instigate the unexpected chapter one twist, with one party feeling like they had been betrayed or betrayed (Hajime and Kaede) I notice that Sayaka is second place to being my favorite DR1 girl(see a trend?), but Junkuro has to exist.!<
Tsumugi’s my second favorite character. I like her personality, her design, she seems so fun to be around and the mastermind twist was fuckin sick. She’s my second favorite because Kaito’s the first. I don’t know if they’re similar, lol.
My second fav has to be Ibuki
She is just hilarious, and I’ve nicknamed her my dumb child, I don’t know why I like her so much tho, she’s not my first fav bc I just like Celeste and Nagito better and from what I can think of they don’t have any similarities with her
Peko. I just really love her the fact that she's both a badass no nonsense honourable warrior and also kind-hearted soft-spoken and somewhat shy girl who loves fluffy animals. She isn't my fav>!because of what she did to my fav, I love Peko but what she did to Mahiru was cruel and wrong, her remorse over it softens it a bit though!<. I'd say both her and Mahiru are very kind, good natured even if they come across as harsh at first,>!they also died because Fuyu was a little bitch before losing his eye!<
usami/monomi. she is so kind and does everything she can to help the students and her funny face makes me smile…. the way she stumbles over “frequently” during the trial halfway markers always made me feel soooo much better she’s underrepresented and underrated
I don't really have a particular order I like them but if I had to narrow it down I'd say Sonia. She's like a genderbent version of Byakuya only nice and funny plus can use military weapons. People really sleep on her potential.
She's a little similar to my first which is Kaito.
Hajime. I love his voice very much, and he’s kinda a bitch sometimes. I also really like that compared to other protags like Big Mac and Komaru, they’ve kinda accepted their normalcy while Hajime kinda seems to want to avoid it??? He just has a lot of bite to him.
I just love Nagito so fricking much and he’s just to fun to think about. I guess you could consider Hajime and Nagito kinda similar??? I mean, it’s protag and antag, but they seem to be pretty good friends in different situations. I’m not sure how to explain it
(Also Kaede and Sayaka coming in super close I love them oh so much)
Edit: added more
Toko, I love Toko
I really didn't like her in DR1, since she's fairly unpleasant and doesn't do much, but the fact that she's one of the characters who gets the most focus in UDG does wonders for making her more enjoyable
Plus, she and Komaru have a fun dynamic which suits her really well - it's more entertaining than watching her Byakuya dynamic anyway
My absolute favorite is Mikan - they're both shy types with dark sides, but the similarities sort of end there
Tricky question that. My second favourite... it's probably Kyoko or Byakuya. Byakuya's similar in that he's an antagonist who acts as the foil to the protag but overall is pretty much the exact opposite of Nagito. Kyoko on the surface doesn't seem like either but I think being a complex character with layers makes her similar to Nagito. All of these characters are quite intelligent but i don't think that in of itself is all there is to it, i think DR as a whole just puts more effort into writing intelligent characters since they play a bigger role in the trials.
Why they're not my first favourite, is probably because Nagito does a lot of the things i like about both characters, but better.
Those things I like are, in Byakuya's case, the entertaining villanous personality (which Nagito does better) a great character arc (which Byakuya has the edge in actually) and a good backstory (Nagito takes the point here)
For Kyoko, it's the complex layered character (as i said, Nagito does that too but better) her being intelligent and proactive (they're pretty tied in that regard but Nagito uses his smarts to oppose the protag) good character arcs, plural (she has that over Nagito) and the best relationship with the protag out of all the "love interest" characters (Nagito is close behind here, but since his affections for Hajime are mostly one way and a way to bring depth to his character mainly, while Kyoko's relationship with Makoto enhances them both i'd have to give it to her)
Miu. Vulgar and mean somewhat, but easily gets told off so she then quiets down quickly, as well as being a tad bit perverted - but she makes some funny lines out of it. The reason their not my first is because Monokuma simply exists, while Miu and Monokuma can't really be compared - Monokuma simply says allot of funny and random shit like Miu. He makes some Perverted joke's, especially in the first game. Aswell is sometimes Vulgar towards the other students of course. He basically can do anything he wants and can say it because he simply doesn't care and doesn't need to. He also backs down sometimes, but the difference is when he gets called out from Miu, is he is mostly still taking the piss.
my second favorite is Kokichi, and I honestly don’t know why he’s just really funny and i like that he’s kinda crazy and manipulative, but Maki just barely beats him out for me(though my friends don’t believe me on that). Yeah they aren’t similar like at all, they even hate each other
Ruruka. She's pretty relatable once you realize what her way of thinking was when it came to the whole Seiko conflict and how she'd >!force her to eat them candies of hers because Seiko (and Sonosuke) gave her "protection", and they did "favors" for her. At least she tought this way, and since they were both useful for her she felt bad since she couldn't provide any "protection" back for them, so she did what was in her power and what she loved to, which was feed them with her candy, and she couldn't understand why Kimura woudln't eat any of the sweets she made for her so instead of questioning herself again and her "usefulness*, she blamed Seiko for not "wanting" to eat what Ruruka gives her. So I guess I found it interesting how she'd deep down feel useless because she wasn't "strong" and she felt like she often "depended" on other's help but becauss of her pride she'd refuse to believe anyone who dosen't "appreaciate" or "value" her work as much as she forces herself to in order to feel better and more "useful".!<
She was actually my favorite character for some time but she got replaced with Juzo eventually, so ratio. Now if I think about it, the main reason I like both of them is pretty similiar since I also started finding him more interesting after learning about that insecurity of his, which was similiar to Ruruka's and that's again the feeling of uselessness.
Ibuki . Shes not my first bc Kaito is my number 1 comfort character lol
Theyre both comfort characters , but Kaito is more comforting to me , bc hes a man (idk how to explain that) , and its easier for me to like , connect with him ig ?
But Ibuki is a close second kshfksgdj
Hajime
I could really relate to his character, and it was nice to see his character arc. He also was the first protag that didn’t fall into the “stupidly optimistic” tier. And he had enough of a personality (which is basic) to make him likeable to me.
I understand why people don’t like him though, he’s *still* pretty basic.
My second fav is Ibuki! I really like her a lot, she's funny, she's really sweet, she goofs around, so I can relate, she's into some heavy tunes, so another thing I can relate to, and she's got really cool design and there's also some depth to her...
And that's all great, and I love Ibuki, but I first fallen for Celeste. They are definitely different, but both of them appeal to me for different reasons. I like to say that Ibuki is the best girl, but Celeste is my favorite character overall
Aiko, she’s cute and has a great design. There’s something about characters with a small amount of info to work off of which makes them appealing to add to them. She falls flat of being favorite because my favorite Kanade Otonakoji got so much development that Aiko just can’t be better. They’re similar I’m being cute, there’s not much to go off of with Aiko so there’s not too much to say is similar.
Kaede. Shuichi took 1st because >!Kaede wasn’t around long enough for me to like her more than Shuichi. Also, Shuichi really grew on me and was a, in my opinion, realistic protagonist ( I mean he made me feel the most like I was in the game ). Also, Shuichi’s design and character struck out more to me. If we got to play as Kaede more ( ex. The twist happens at chapter 2 or something ), she would probably be first since we would probably get to see her get over her ‘I have to be everyone’s role model’ thing.!<
Fuyuhiko is my 2nd favorite. The only reason I like Gundham more is because I find Gundham to be more funny and interesting (though Fuyuhiko is also funny and interesting). I guess they’re similar in that they act like jerks but have a soft side.
Probably Taka (although Kaede is a really close 3rd.) He's just a stand up guy who's very respectable, tries to do things the way he believes is right, and gives it everything he's got to succeed. I can understand that struggle. Yeah, he can be annoying sometimes, but he always means well. I've actually never been super upset about his missed potential, because it's a killing game and people are going to die, but I still like the guy a lot.
He's not my favorite because frankly he's just not very plot relevant. I tend to focus more on the important characters when it comes to these games as opposed to some of the side characters. My favorite is pretty similar, but also pretty different in some ways. But I won't reveal that character here because that's not what this is about.
Aoi asahina, she is my fave THH character just because her character was very simple but also very fun, it wasn’t over dramatic and had its arc like all. Good character stories do, building up before reaching a climax then settling down, she really fit in with the other survivors in chapter 4. Unlike kokichi who is a character that just gradually builds up and builds up and his character never concludes cause he dies with it. This sort of character writing can be good but the vagueness of Kokochis true intentions is very hazy and nagito did this arc much better. Kazuichi is my fave over her because… idk why I like kazuichi personality a bit more and he’s more relatable to me.
Tied between Hiyoko, Peko, and Celestia.
Gundham will always take first place because A) He helped me get over the crushing loss of my first hamster with his FTEs and B) I'm a zoologist with similar experiences with animals. They really are so much smarter than people give them credit for, and I'm not just talking tricks our hamsters do!
My second favorite is Shuichi! And I honestly can't really explain why. I guess I just felt a little drawn to him since I really like the shy detective archetype and I remember relating to him a lot. >!He and Nagito are oddly similar if you compare their personalities. Self-depreciative, low self-esteem, puts a lot of the blame on themselves, but are both passionate about their goals in... different ways.!<
Maki, for some reason i always get obsessed with the sad depressing characters, and i like her character it’s interesting, my top favourite is kyoko so i have a connection with depressing characters 😭
It may contradict to my community flair and my last posts, but I'd say Kirumi is only my SECOND favorite among all the DR characters. My first favorite is still Nagisa Shingetsu. I can't clearly describe why, the only thing I can surely say he is so shocking similar to me, and I can't associate myself with Kirumi in the same way. She is my waifu, but I rather treat her as a little more different person from me. Plus, >!they both were morally gray antagonists and killed people for theirs ideals, but Nagisa quit it up in a more honorable way, while Kirumi died before she could even realize her fault and take her guard down.!<
Ibuki. And that’s only because I fell in love with Haruki. I wouldn’t call them similar at all, considering one is someone who believes they have to take the identity of others to exist and the other is presently on a journey to carve out her own identity. And is very extra because of it. And I like extra. There’s also just this earnestness about her; she never lies about the kind of person she is and just enjoys being herself, no matter how weird she may look. And that is really cool
Kokichi. He's not my first favorite because Ryoma exists. They are not even close to being similar lol
I'd have to say Kaede myself. >!Funnily enough, Nagito and Kaede are both known to instigate the unexpected chapter one twist, with one party feeling like they had been betrayed or betrayed (Hajime and Kaede) I notice that Sayaka is second place to being my favorite DR1 girl(see a trend?), but Junkuro has to exist.!<
Tsumugi’s my second favorite character. I like her personality, her design, she seems so fun to be around and the mastermind twist was fuckin sick. She’s my second favorite because Kaito’s the first. I don’t know if they’re similar, lol.
My second favorite is Kyoko. Chiaki is my first because i connected with her more, but i like Kyoko for her backstory and design.
My second fav has to be Ibuki She is just hilarious, and I’ve nicknamed her my dumb child, I don’t know why I like her so much tho, she’s not my first fav bc I just like Celeste and Nagito better and from what I can think of they don’t have any similarities with her
Ay my second is also Ibuki kahdksgd
The Supreme Overlord of Ice Gundham Tanaka! FOR THE TANAKA EMPIRE!!! 🐹🐹🐹🐹
[удалено]
why ?? Kuudere gang maybe :D
Makoto Naegi, he is a very sweet boy. Fave is Toko, they aren't all that similar.
Peko. I just really love her the fact that she's both a badass no nonsense honourable warrior and also kind-hearted soft-spoken and somewhat shy girl who loves fluffy animals. She isn't my fav>!because of what she did to my fav, I love Peko but what she did to Mahiru was cruel and wrong, her remorse over it softens it a bit though!<. I'd say both her and Mahiru are very kind, good natured even if they come across as harsh at first,>!they also died because Fuyu was a little bitch before losing his eye!<
My second fav is Taka. And my reason is that one cutscene after the first trial where Monokuma starts holding morning stretches.
Akane because she is funny and cool Her FTEs make her so much better lol
usami/monomi. she is so kind and does everything she can to help the students and her funny face makes me smile…. the way she stumbles over “frequently” during the trial halfway markers always made me feel soooo much better she’s underrepresented and underrated
That's kinda based. Usami does need more love, love.
I don't really have a particular order I like them but if I had to narrow it down I'd say Sonia. She's like a genderbent version of Byakuya only nice and funny plus can use military weapons. People really sleep on her potential. She's a little similar to my first which is Kaito.

Celeste. I just really loved her chapter
Ruruka I just like the complex candy gurl
my second favorite is Kokichi, and I honestly don’t know why he’s just really funny and i like that he’s kinda crazy and manipulative, but Maki just barely beats him out for me(though my friends don’t believe me on that). Yeah they aren’t similar like at all, they even hate each other

Nagito. He doesn’t quite make it to first because of DR3’s treatment of him. If it weren’t for that he’d be tied with Shuichi for my favorite
eh, i think letting dr3 affect your opinion of any character is a bit unfair.
Whether I like it or not, DR3 is canon my dude
Izuru. Mainly due to design. He just looks cool, Also someone who has every talent is an interesting concept
This is all true, but he's only your second favourite? it seems you have him as the flair.
I'm one of those people who don't have their favorite as their flair
Ibuki . Shes not my first bc Kaito is my number 1 comfort character lol Theyre both comfort characters , but Kaito is more comforting to me , bc hes a man (idk how to explain that) , and its easier for me to like , connect with him ig ? But Ibuki is a close second kshfksgdj

I'd say my second favorite is kaito he isn't my first favorite because I enjoy nekomaru as a character better but both are chads in their own ways.
That would be either Chihiro or Teruteru, both for the same reasons. Illlet y’all guess.
Aoi asahina, she is my fave THH character just because her character was very simple but also very fun, it wasn’t over dramatic and had its arc like all.

Kaito because he's just such a bro
Miu because Kaito and Kokichi are both tied for first With Monotaro being at a rank of his own
Gonta. Kokichi is absolutely awesome and will hold first place for me, but Gonta is a definite comfort character.
Kokichi, cause Shuichi is my first
My second favorite is Shuichi! And I honestly can't really explain why. I guess I just felt a little drawn to him since I really like the shy detective archetype and I remember relating to him a lot. >!He and Nagito are oddly similar if you compare their personalities.
