#Danganronpa chiaki full#
Despite trying her best to escape Junko, she eventually succumbs, with the full knowledge that because she failed to escape her Junko, all of her friends would fall into despair. just speaks volumes about just how much she truly cares for her friends.Ī different side of this is illustrated in DR3, where instead of succeeding in saving everyone like in DR2, she fails. The fact that even when she fully knew that she would die if she tried to everyone else and STILL decided to sacrifice herself, and not only that, but smiled and cheered everyone else on because she knew they were devastated at seeing her go.

We see this exemplified the strongest in DR2, Trial 5. A leader should not be always trying to pander to everyone - they should know when to get angry and when to get upset to help both them and others to learn something, rather than just saying 'it's alright'.īut more importantly, she's someone who is always watching out for everyone else. We do see her display actual emotions of anger and upset-ness at certain times, and to me, this actually makes her a better character and, more importantly, a better 'leader'. However, she's definitely not Naegi levels of pure niceness that it kind of leans into naivety. She's always trying to help out others, cheer up those around her in different ways, and generally try her best to help those around her. Throughout DR2 and DR3, we rarely see her really 'angry' or 'upset' at one specific person. Now, let's talk about few of her personality quirks that really make her the perfect leader, such as the fact that she is an extremely nice and caring person. And while that's definitely fair, I still think that it just goes to cement her as this 'perfect leader' who can unite pretty much any dysfunctional group. there's not much I need to tell you more, right? I mean, her role as the Class Representative has been so highlighted multiple times throughout the entire anime that some people got annoyed by just how much of a special treatment she has been getting from the writers. She knew very well that she couldn't just solve the entire case by herself, so she instead tried her best to unite everyone under one cause and keep them all focused on the task at hand, and not be diverted by the killer's ways.Īnd also in DR3, well. As much as I love Kirigiri, she was definitely more of a 'I'll tell you the answers so just shut up and listen' person. And she did her job basically perfectly - not only did she point out many things that others just didn't see, but also she listened to everyone even when everyone else ignored them, and basically helped to unite everyone together to come to logical conclusions. Komaeda, Chiaki was the one who was always leading the discussion. Sure, Komaeda might have been smarter than her, but since Komaeda is well. In DR2, she basically led every single Class Trials. I'll start off by just naming a few things she has accomplished as an 'leader'.
Now, that might not be an obvious conclusion, but to me, there could not be a more fitting word for Chiaki than 'leader'. Yes, she is definitely adorable design-wise, and her talent as the 'Ultimate Gamer' definitely appeals to me as a gamer myself, but her personality is definitely the main selling point for me, and more specifically, the fact that she is the spitting image of a perfect leader. And, for me at least, definitely the biggest reason why she is is her personality.
I do think that their personalities and general characteristics do match up.įor me, Chiaki is definitely my favourite character in DR. At times, it seems like absolutely every fan of DR adores her, while other times, it seems like absolutely everyone either hates her as a character, or just hates all the crazy amounts of attention she's getting, which I can kind of understand.įirstly, I'll start off by saying that I do consider DR2 and DR3 Chiaki the same character, even though one may be an AI and the other may be an actual person. Chiaki is probably one of the most controversial character in DR.
