**Chihiro Fujisaki** is a student at Hope's Peak Academy featured in Danganronpa: Despairs Loss. Her title is 'Ultimate Programmer'.

## History

Chihiro was bullied from quite a young age for her femininity. This only proceeded to get worse as she explored her identity and style further. Sometime in her elementary school career, she withdrew and resorted to homeschooling.

As expected due to her parents both being Ultimates, she, too, experienced characteristics of the Ultimate gene from a young age. These were only enhanced by her leave from school. She became engrossed in programming and coding, reaching a point where she'd rarely leave her room.

Her work expanded to the creation of artificial intelligences that could mimic human behaviour. The first she created was identical to herself, yet extremely different in the personality it made for itself. She thus dubbed it 'Alter Ego'. Her creations soon amassed her a fairly big fan base and work opportunities.

A few years after Alter Ego's creation, a company reached out to Fujisaki, interested in having her programme an AI with total free will that could exist in an artificial human body. One that would grow and age like a human, too. She accepted, completely abandoning her school work to work on this new project.

It took much longer than anything she had worked on before, around two years. But eventually, the group created their first ever Android Child. Whilst celebrated by Japan, Chihiro was much more enamoured by the child she had made. First, she was totally in awe, but that awe soon became a familial love as the child soon became family to the Fujisaki family.

Unfortunately, a bug occurred in the child, causing her to severely harm a few children she was playing with, one day. The company that had funded the Android's creation demanded that Fujisaki terminate her immediately. However, Chihiro couldn't bring herself to do that.

In the middle of the night, Chihiro took the child to the forest under the guise of a game of hide and seek. She asked the child to close her eyes and count, giving her a chance to leave. Chihiro quickly abandoned the girl in the woods.

The guilt for her betrayal never ceased as she became even more withdrawn and low in energy. Upon receiving an offer to Hope's Peak Academy, she accepted, only with the hope of being able to see her child again.

## Appearance

Chihiro has ginger-blonde, shoulder length hair that sticks out to the sides of her head in sharp curls. Her bangs swoop to the left. Her eyes are a hazel-green. She wears a sleeveless green sweater with two pairs of differently shaded brown stripes round the torso. Beneath the sweater is a dark khaki shirt with a white collar. She wears blue, baggy jeans, white socks and sepia slip ons.

## Personality

Chihiro is a shy girl with evidently low self-esteem. Without getting to know her, she blends fairly well into the background, often afraid to speak her mind. Despite this, she is actually quite the genius who can ramble on about her interests for ages if given the chance. She's also kind and wishes to be strong enough to help others, disliking people who use their power to hurt.

## Relationships

### **Celestia Ludenberg**

With Chihiro being so mild mannered, Celestia is often the one that speaks up for her. As much as she appreciates it, Celestia's brash and deceptive nature sometimes worries her.

### **Mondo Owada**

Despite not having spoken much, Chihiro admires Mondo's strength and sees him as a role model of sorts.

### **Byakuya Togami**

Chihiro strongly dislikes Togami due to his cruel personality and wishes she had the nerve to stand up to him.

### **Hifumi Yamada**

Chihiro and Hifumi get along quite well due to having a lot of the same interests.
