Kokichi Ouma

Kokichi Ouma, also known as Ultimate Supreme Leader, is a character from the Danganronpa series.
== Charactah Account ==
A boy who claims to lead a secret society of over 10,000 agents. He's also an admitted liar, and Ultimate Detective - Shuichi Saihara seems to have never heard rumors of this supposed evil cabal, so no one is sure what to think. True to his stature as an evil mastermind, Kokichi says exactly what will most rile up the other students, smiling the whole time.
He is the mastermind of Chapter 4's murder, using Gonta as a means to kill Miu, before becoming the victim of Chapter 5 as part of a plan of his to defeat the mastermind. With Kaito Momota following Kokichi's orders, he has himself crushed under a hydraulic press, leaving his body inaccessible. Kaito then proceeds to pilot an Exisal mecha and impersonate Kokichi and himself, making it ambiguous as to which one of them died.

== Trivia ==
* Officially, Kokichi is stated to be a Gemini, but he was actually born June 21 on the cusp of Gemini (May 21-June 20) and Cancer (June 21-July 22), thus making him a Cancer.
* In his promotional art, Kokichi is shown holding Panta, which is a reference to the soda brand, Fanta. Along with soda, he also loves tea and tea parties, and his organization even has mandatory tea breaks.
* He appears to have a fear of insects. He describes the sight of them crawling around as "nasty" and more or less jokingly calls Gonta's Research Lab "Hell". He is also heard screaming in terror when Gonta forces him to be closer with a massive amount of bugs. According to Gonta, he then foamed at the mouth and passed out, and was so exhausted the next morning that he only showed up after hearing the body discovery announcement. During one event in the bonus mode Love Across the Universe, when discussing Gonta and his bugs, Kokichi mentions that he cannot understand why would anyone like "these creepy things".
* In the English version, he seems to be skilled in different languages, as during his Free Time Event with Kaede he casually lists Japanese, French and Spanish words for "common sense" along with the English one.
* Kokichi appears to love video games and the official art book states he's been playing them his whole life.
* Kokichi is one of the only two people to die before seeing their Research Lab, the other being Rantaro.
* In his room, Kokichi has a whiteboard which portrays all of the culprits and victims, the murder methods, his opinion on the living students, as well as a silly self-portrait.
* Kokichi's organization, D.I.C.E., could be a reference to the animated television series D.I.C.E. (DNA Integrated Cybernetic Enterprises), in which the main characters are an organization run by children, specifically orphans. The series includes a villainous B-DICE organization, which tries to discredit DICE by posing as DICE members, and has a clown and poker motif.
* In the original Japanese version's fifth chapter, there was an error where Kokichi didn't have arrows in his arm and back. It was later fixed in the localization.
* In the early Japanese trailer released on October 24th, 2016, one of Kokichi's sprites was erroneously drawn with six fingers.
* At the E3 2017 premiere of the Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony Demo Version, the English translated opening intro included Kokichi Oma's name spelled as "Kokichi Ouma", which goes against typical NIS America localization spelling. NIS America confirmed this was an error that would be rectified by the release of the public demo, and it was later corrected in the full demo footage released by IGN on July 31st, 2017.
* Kokichi's English voice actor, Derek Stephen Prince, also voices Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu in the Danganronpa series.
* In a poll hosted by MyNavi, fans voted Kokichi the 2nd most popular Danganronpa V3 student out of 16.
* Japanese gaming magazine Dengeki from April 27th, 2017 to May 22nd, 2017 held two popularity polls, one that was voted electronically and the other via post cards. Kokichi was voted the most popular student in the electronic poll, and 12th through post cards.
