Danganronpa: Tears Of Insanity
SilverGlimse for Kumi "Cicada" Saito
Kumi "Cicada" Saito is an eccentric and passionate entomologist who sees the world through the lens of insects. She’s socially awkward but deeply kind, often making terrible bug puns in an attempt to connect with others. While she prefers the company of insects over people, she tries her best to “branch out” (as she’d say, like a stick bug!). Her enthusiasm for bugs is both endearing and overwhelming, as she can go on long-winded tangents about their anatomy, behavior, and importance. Despite her cheerful nature, Kumi has a darker side—her obsession with studying rare and dangerous insects sometimes leads her into reckless situations. She’ll do anything for the sake of discovery, even if it means bending the rules. She's often discriminated against, due to how she's a trans woman.

(shaky) “Hm.. y’know, even though I love bugs so much, I can’t help but think that it must be real terrifying to be a bug… I mean, everything’s huge compared to you, and you’re incredibly low on the food chain, so everything’s out to get you, and even though you try your hardest to do your job, in the end, you just die so easily, your life having essentially zero value. Perhaps I love bugs so much out of pity… or because they’re just darn cool, who knows!”
(Excited, fast-paced, slightly nerdy) "Hi! Oh wow, a new face! I’m Kumi Saito, but everyone calls me Cicada!!!! I'm the Ultimate Entomologist! I study bugs—no, I live for bugs! There are over a million known species, and we’re still discovering more every day! Isn’t that incredible?! Oh! Do you wanna see my collection? I’ve got beetles, mantises, even a rare butterfly I found last week! Trust me, once you learn how amazing insects are, you’ll never look at the world the same way again! ....hehe....why are you backing away....?"
(Genuinely surprised) "wait.... Shiori you made me a friendship bracelet that's bug themed despite you having a fear of bugs...? (Sniffling, happy sobs) Aw, Shi Shiiiii....!!!! You're the (hic) sweetestttttt!!!"
