Danganronpa The Ultimate Dub: Ultimate Recasting

The Ultimate Lucky Student. Makoto proclaims himself to be a very ordinary person, to the point that he seems a bit insecure about it. He does admit to having one distinguishing feature, that being his unique sense of optimism. Makoto is very kind, supportive, and forgiving, though slightly naive at times. He is friendly, polite, and a lot more down-to-earth compared to the other students. He is a bit jumpy at times and can be somewhat of a pushover. Despite these meeker qualities, he is capable of being a very determined and charismatic speaker. Makoto is a firm believer in hope, having a positive attitude about the future no matter how bad the situation is in the present. He is also a pacifist, as he tends to believe that violence isn't the answer.

The Ultimate Swimming Pro. Aoi is a warm, cheerful, upbeat, and outgoing girl who is friendly and welcoming towards everyone she meets, trying to make friends with everybody and include them in her activities. Due to being quite air-headed she can be easily manipulated by others and jump to conclusions or take them at face value. Aoi is an extremely athletic person and considers it an absolutely fundamental part of herself, using it as an important coping mechanism in her daily life and feeling like she "might die" if she can't exercise. She is extremely loyal to her friends to such a degree that when they are harmed it shatters her ability to emotionally cope.

The Ultimate Gambler. As an experienced gambler, Celestia appears collected, cold, and cunning by nature. She possesses the ability to manipulate others to do her bidding and can lie with a straight face. Her mannerisms are strict, refined and her spoiled nature emphasizes this due to her aspiring to be like European royalty. She even has a habit of ranking men between Rank A and Rank F, supposedly to test who is worthy of being one of her servants. Celestia speaks softly and smiles often to imitate Victorian mannerisms and etiquette as a lady. She usually uses polite language whenever she talks to others, but her short-temperedness surfaces when something fails to go as well as she expects it to.

NOTE: We made the accents French and German because we have no idea what accent she's supposed to have but it sounds like a combination of both.

The Ultimate Murderous Fiend. Genocide Jack is an alternate personality inside Toko Fukawa's head. Despite being a bloodthirsty and potentially very dangerous serial killer, Genocide Jack is mostly portrayed as comic relief in the Danganronpa series. She laughs a lot and sometimes pretends to be serious only to reveal that she is just joking. Unlike Toko, Genocide Jack is very loud and outgoing. Jack is a self-proclaimed fujoshi and says that she only kills cute boys who 'turn her on'. She also seems to like yuri, though she says that she's not into girls. She has also been portrayed with both sadistic and masochistic traits.

The Ultimate Fanfic Creator. Hifumi has a verbose manner of speaking, often going on long-winded tangents about his interests such as anime or fanfiction. He also tends to casually make creepy or perverted comments in the middle of conversations, especially about or to women. He also can't tell the difference between some insults or compliments. Hifumi is extremely passionate about anime and fanfiction, and has little tolerance for anyone he feels has a poor or neutral opinion about them. He refers to others in a very formal manner, calling them "Ms." or "Mr." Last Name. Although having a somewhat misanthropic look at society, Hifumi will not stand for indecent crimes against those he holds in deep regard.

The Ultimate Fashionista. As a young fashionista, Junko is described as simply "not fake", charismatic, and eager to try new things. she comes across as slightly air-headed and hot-tempered. She can also be a bit too talkative with an overly carefree attitude. However, Junko's real personality is revealed at the end, very apathetic and easily bored to an unhealthy and abnormal degree. Because of this, her behavior and mannerisms tend to be extremely erratic and unstable by her own autonomous design; keeping up one "appearance" for too long bores her, which causes her to often switch between different personas. However, she is capable of maintaining one persona for extended periods of time when necessary.

The Ultimate Moral Compass. As is befitting, Kiyotaka is righteous and values order and rules above all else. He takes his role as a student very seriously. He is shown to be very polite and respectful. He considers effort most important and he is a hard worker, believing that one can achieve anything through it. He considers geniuses his enemies because they don't understand the true value of effort. He also believes that people who are easily provoked to violence are cowards. Nevertheless, Kiyotaka truly cares about his classmates. He is willing to take pragmatic approaches to avoid murder. Though he acts confidently and is quick to take the role of leadership, he suffers from low-self esteem at times and he is quite sensitive, sometimes crying very easily if he is shocked or touched by something.

The Ultimate ??? (Later revealed to be the Ultimate Hope). Hajime seems cynical at first glance, but it would be more accurate to describe him as a realist. He is quite skeptical and tends to worry more than the other students, but his worries are usually understandable. He is logical and keen, often annoyed by the idea of not being able to understand someone or something at all. He tends to be quite serious, but he does joke around and often goes along with his 'classmates' eccentric hobbies anyway, and sometimes smiles awkwardly and sheepishly while his friends engage in some of their usual weird behavior. He is sometimes annoyed by some of his classmates and can be snarky towards them in his thoughts as well as blunt while speaking to them, though he's more frank than sarcastic or mean-spirited. Though sometimes a bit submissive (especially with bossy girls), he is not afraid to speak his mind, and he can be rude if annoyed enough. He can sometimes be short-tempered and snap at others, especially when he's tired or under pressure.

The Ultimate Breeder. Gundham has an eccentric and somewhat dark personality, his delusions of self-grandeur likely stemming from an inferiority complex and chuunibyou syndrome. He claims that he was gifted with evil powers of the underworld, the result of "an angel and a devil" joining together. Gundham refers to other people as "pathetic human beings" and states that even the gods fear his abilities. He often rambles about his status as "The Supreme Overlord of Ice" and his interest in the dark arts, alchemy, and astral levels. Preferring to be alone, he prioritizes himself and taking care of the Devas over connecting with his classmates.

The Ultimate Musician. At first, Ibuki is a bit shocking and bold, with her unique personality and appearance. She is one of the most upbeat people out of her classmates. She is very energetic and loves to talk, though she almost always ends up going off on bizarre, unrelated tangents. She forgets things quite quickly, so she tries to write memos to help her remember. Ibuki is very quirky as she loves to do all sorts of bizarre things and she dislikes "dull" things, like reading and studying. She has a habit of breaking the fourth wall. When she gets upset, Ibuki seems to have a bit of a verbal tic: saying things twice. She also tends to scream or froth at the mouth when she panics. She seems to enjoy panicking when there is no real danger, like when she's watching horror movies or going into a haunted house. Despite her general quirkiness, Ibuki can be a startlingly wise and contemplative person. Ibuki often refers to herself in third person.

The Ultimate Mechanic. Kazuichi is a highly emotional character, though he tries to play it smooth and acts carefree at first. He is a very jumpy person, easily scared and often screaming in fear. Kazuichi tends to neglect his need for a verbal filter and often blurts things out without thinking. He also seems to be a very bad liar, leading him to be contradictory at times. While he is a genius with machinery, he appears to be a bit slow-witted otherwise. Being the Ultimate Mechanic, Kazuichi normally tries to repair any broken items on the island with his ability and familiarity with mechanisms. He tends to carry around a wrench and he gets anxious if he cannot tinker with something. He has a great love for machinery, especially fast ones like rockets and bikes, which is ironic since he suffers from awful motion sickness. Kazuichi also likes girls a lot, though in a rather perverted and shallow way.

Li'l Ultimate Art. Jataro has an incredible talent for anything seen as creative, such as drawing, painting, and sculpting. He is also shown to be quiet, shy, and scatter-brained. He tends to blame himself for things that have nothing to do with him, as well as repeatedly apologizing and putting himself down. He believes that his face is horribly ugly and he panics if anyone wants to see it. Jataro's thoughts are disorganized and off-topic, some being innocent and some not, and he often has difficulties following conversations. He is shown to have some sort of mental or emotional instability, which becomes evident when he lapses into his episodes of rambling. Despite the constant self-deprecation, Jataro is self-described as being a cheerful kid (though he admits that he may not understand what "cheerful" means), helpful to his friends, and willing to comply with whatever they ask of him while remaining relatively upbeat.

Li'l Ultimate P.E. Masaru is a cheerful, hot-headed showoff and seems to be the one who has a more goofy outlook on life. He is extremely energetic and constantly brags about his role as the Hero and leader of the Warriors of Hope, despite the circumstances of how he became "leader" (by winning in Rock, Paper, Scissors). He loves praise and fame. He is also very playful, naughty, and mischievous. He likes to boss around others due to his role as the leader and seems to enjoy pranks. He is one of the more child-like and less intelligent members of the group, enjoying very childish jokes, stomping his foot in frustration if things won't go his way, and being completely unaware of what is truly going on. He also seems to have a habit of remembering certain words incorrectly. Although Masaru is childish and arrogant, he does genuinely care about the people he leads. He wants to make sure that the kids won't need to feel afraid anymore and he forces himself to be brave for them. He takes his role as the "Hero" very seriously and works hard to live up to certain hero tropes, like being fearless and never losing. Though he usually appears very cheerful, he can get very upset and break down crying if he is reminded of his abusive past.

Li'l Ultimate Homeroom. Monaca is seemingly very amiable and caring. She appears very cheerful and has a childish way of talking, sometimes meowing and almost exclusively referring to herself in the third person. Because of her charming personality, all of the Warriors love her and try their best to keep her happy and go along with what she wants. However, it's slowly revealed that she is actually manipulative and cunning behind her friendly facade. Her 'true' personality resembles that of Junko's. When things are not going her way, Monaca will manipulate the situation by any means necessary, such as throwing fits or causing the Warriors to turn on each other. She ultimately has very little regard for their well-being, knowingly using their traumatic pasts against them and not feeling any sympathy or sorrow for them or anyone else. She greatly admires Junko, who seems to be the only person she ever (genuinely) cared about, and she hates the idea of Junko being disappointed in her. Despite her cheerful front, Monaca has suffered from suicidal thoughts in her past and present, though she claims it's all just a joke.

Monophanie is a child-like robot with a feminine personality and the only sister of all the Monokubs. Her personality appears much more gentle than her brothers, which seems to make her somewhat well-liked by her father and siblings, though it can also annoy the other bears who are more openly "evil". In general, Monophanie is considered "the cute one", with a tendency to do cute things like trying to solve the killing game via rock-paper-scissors, or suddenly falling asleep, and liking flowers. Furthermore, she is mentioned to dislike nasty things like gore and bugs. She also appears to be one of the more sensible and intelligent Monokubs, being often shocked and confused by her brothers' crude and confusing remarks. When the siblings begin their usual fighting, she often plays the mediator and seems to dislike arguing, but in the end, she always ends up joining in the fight. While often seeming very gentle and sensitive, she also has a tough side. Despite her kind demeanor, she can speak in a mean and vulgar manner just like her father and siblings, and has a ruthless side. She tends to say things with somewhat mixed messages, beginning her sentence with kindness and then ending it with cruel indications. She may express worry towards others but ultimately seems quite cruel like her other kind.

NOTE: Only reason I put her as child is because they're child-like robots but they have no real ages.

The Ultimate Pianist. Kaede is an optimistic hard worker. As a leader type with a firm character, she has a strong will and doesn't hesitate to take action; her notable character trait is her strong sense of belief in herself and others. Her main motivation for playing the piano is to see others smiling. Kaede has a kind personality that makes her think about others before herself. Because of this, she is unable to immediately suspect people. She is willing to lie for good reasons but appears uncomfortable while doing so and is quite bad at lying. Like the other protagonists before her, she has a very sensitive nature and listens to other people's troubles. However, she seems to encourage other people to get better even more actively than some other protagonists do, and she isn't afraid to be bold about it and point out their flaws. However, being a pianoholic from a young age, she has a peculiar trait of including music talk in her conversations. She even strongly avoids certain activities such as cooking and certain sports because she fears her fingers might get hurt, affecting her ability to play. Kaede can also be a bit oblivious and silly at times. While a kind and friendly person, Kaede is shown to have a quite firm, sometimes even rather easily angered personality as well, as she tends to lash at others when they annoy her enough. Indeed, Kaede's tendency to push forward with her own personal justice is her biggest flaw. She refuses to give up when it would be the sensible thing to do and when pushing forward would only make things worse. She also never doubts what she thinks is right and accepts it blindly.

The Ultimate Astronaut. Kaito is an energetic person with a passionate heart, who lives for dreams and romance, and tends to give somewhat dramatic encouraging speeches to others. He believes you need to take risks for the sake of your dreams and shouldn't limit yourself nor ever give up. He considers himself a hero type and occasionally offers to make other people his "sidekicks". Because of that, Kaito always tries his best to unite the group, and he 'is very much a reliable older brother type of character. He is very loyal to his friends and is always there to aid them. Interestingly, Kaito seems to be a good judge of character and can give correct advice at times. With his clichéd passionate nature, Kaito possesses some slightly old-fashioned opinions, believing that men should be real men (often dramatically talking about "man's passion") and women should not use real weapons and are more suited to childcare. Undoubtedly, Kaito's biggest flaw is his arbitrary complete trust in others, which is often misguided. He is sincere and believes in friendship no matter what, trusting who he wants to trust even against all evidence and logic. Kaito can also be slightly comical, sometimes having very over-exaggerated expressions and reactions, and can easily come across as not that smart due t

The Ultimate Maid. Kirumi is a refined, mature young lady who is described as "a professional who does a perfect job". She has a keen mind and she is talented in various ways, reportedly able to carry out any job, as well as being capable of independence and doing things on her own. She is polite and formal, as well as quite serious, and very willing to use all of her power to cooperate with the other students. She is intelligent, observant, and level-headed. As a maid, Kirumi's creed is "selfless devotion". Thus, she has a very strong sense of duty and a will to work for the sake of others even during the Killing Game. She voluntarily does housework such as cleaning and preparing meals for the students, even making sure each time that there's both Japanese and Western cuisine. Because of this, the other students seem to have strong trust in her, and she tends to wait outside the dormitory in case anyone has any requests for her. She is also shown to be very considerate and often asks the others if they are doing all right and gives them some advice. On the other hand, Kirumi lacks the concept of doing something for herself, and for her even to have a conversation is a request. She believes her own opinions hold no importance. For the sake of the people who need her, Kirumi is willing to do some immoral acts like murder and manipulation if it is necessary in her mind. She is willing to bear the burden of being seen as evil for the sake of her nation and its people.

The Ultimate Child Caregiver. Maki appears to have a very serious personality, as she doesn't seem to smile much if at all. Despite her cute appearance, Maki is described as a hostile misanthrope of few words. She is very aware that she comes across as unfriendly and prefers to be alone. In general, she dislikes people and thus she is not very cooperative and can be stubborn. She talks very little, so when she does, she states things clearly and she appears to be very confident about her arguments. She is cynical and negative with a sharp tongue and sometimes talks in a cold sarcastic manner. While not the type to assertively act on her own, she is stated to have guts and willing to take action when it suits her. Despite her distant and unfriendly personality, Maki is good at taking care of others. She is very popular among children, even though she dislikes them. As the Ultimate Assassin, Maki becomes much more violent, intimidating, and unafraid to threaten others, demonstrating her confidence in her abilities. Despite her extreme personality, Maki holds deep insecurities due to her past as an assassin. As part of her training, Maki was forced to undergo torture, and stated that she "vomited every day" and "cried every night."

The Ultimate Inventor. Miu is described as an oddball, having an overly confident, loud personality and a frighteningly sharp tongue. She considers herself a beautiful genius, and every time she opens her mouth she spews a parade of reckless vulgar remarks and insults, strongly putting pressure on others and looking down on them. However, Miu's arrogant personality seems to be only a mask that can drop fairly easily. This often happens when her festival of coarse language and dirty jokes get replied to or ignored. Then, her personality quickly changes into a timid weakling, who is terrified of other people being angry with her. Because of this, she has a charm similar to an innocent child. As an inventor, Miu is skilled but also an eccentric who treats her failed projects with the idea that "I transferred the rights to the company, so it's got nothing to do with me". She has made all kinds of amazing conveniences both inside and outside of the Killing Game, but only deems her inventions as a success when they help the user to perform a task while sleeping. She also has a habit to make very bizarre, seemingly pointless inventions that are sometimes very sexual in nature. Created to be the "naughtiest character in the series' history", Miu comes off as very perverted and openly says bizarre, obscene things during her arrogant moods, meaning almost constantly. Miu has a very cowardly and self-centered personality, immediately looking for excuses to be absent from the Class Trial after being reminded that she would be executed with everyone else if they reach the wrong conclusion. Also, despite her amazing inventive genius, she is rather dumb when it comes to other matters. Despite her timid personality, she genuinely believes her bragging, thinking she can change the world with her inventions and that she is truly important to humanity.

Seeing as he doesn't remember his talent at the beginning of the Killing Game, he is the Ultimate ???. Rantaro is a carefree and relaxed person, and he is described as one of the more ordinary students despite his mysteriousness, with he stating that he can sometimes get a bit overwhelmed by the others' stranger personalities. Nevertheless, he is shown to have more patience than others with some eccentric students like Kokichi Oma and Miu Iruma, tending to just laugh off some of the potentially hurtful things they say. Even though Rantaro cannot remember his talent, he doesn't seem worried about it, instead, he simply says he just looks forward to finding out what it is. Despite his appearance and manner of speech, he has cold, excellent insight, and is both determined and brave. He even has downright frightening expressions whenever he gets very serious. People (especially girls) occasionally seem to assume that Rantaro is a womanizer, he is aware that he looks like a "playboy", but he always insists he isn't that kind of person and he doesn't have a girlfriend, stating that he's just a chill, friendly guy. Instead, due to having multiple little sisters, he acts like a responsible big brother toward some of his classmates. He has great knowledge of concepts that are considered feminine because he used to help his younger sisters with certain things like schoolwork and nail art. Rantaro is shown to be a bit unsure of himself. A lot of this anxiety is related to the stress caused by his sisters' situation, but he is also shown to be a bit insecure about his memory issues, assuming that others wouldn't trust someone like him and wondering if he can even trust himself.
