Seiko Kimura

**Seiko Kimura** (忌村 静子) is a character featured in Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School.

During her time in Class 76th at Hope's Peak Academy, her title was the **Ultimate Pharmacist** (超高校級の「薬剤師」 lit. Super High School Level Pharmacist). After leaving Hope's Peak, her title was updated to the **Former Ultimate Pharmacist**.

She is a member of the Future Foundation and is the Branch Office 4 Director. Her responsibility as the director is the research and development of new medical techniques. She, along with the other Future Foundation Directors, is forced to participate in the Final Killing Game.

## Appearance

She is a short woman with purple eyes and a sickly complexion. She has pale grey hair and a respirator mask covering her mouth. She wears a dark-colored jacket with the Future Foundation ID pinned to the lapel, a white dress shirt, a dark miniskirt held by a purple belt, long black stockings, and purple Mary Janes. Under her respirator mask, she wears braces. She also wears purple gloves with a single white stripe in the middle. Her eyes give her a frightening look.

After consuming some of her drugs, her appearance changes drastically in a very short amount of time. Her eyes turn a darker shade of purple with symbols resembling flames. Her body tenses, her hair turns very long, and her nails and teeth grow long and sharp. In this form, she appears much stronger and faster, and she runs on all fours.

During her high school years, she wore the uniform of Hope's Peak Academy with a purple vest and a brown belt. She wore the same stockings, gloves, and mask.

## Personality

Seiko had a reserved personality and a stilted way of speaking. As a pharmacist, she had an extensive knowledge of medicine and drugs. She created many different kinds of drugs, including ones that can drastically change one's physical appearance and make them much faster and stronger.

Much like Kyoko Kirigiri, she was conscious of how easy it was for people to guess what she was thinking through her facial expressions, so she hid her face behind a mask. She got startled easily and appeared quite anxious, and, during her time in high school, she was shown to be quite shy as well. She was very meticulous while dealing with medicine.

Seiko was shown to be one of the most compassionate members of Future Foundation, as she showed remorse over both Chisa Yukizome and Daisaku Bandai's deaths and was angry with herself for not being able to save them. During her high school years, Seiko was described as soft-hearted, and she often took requests from other students such as Teruteru Hanamura, Nagito Komaeda, and Ruruka Ando. She also loved animals, providing care for an injured animal at no charge, as well as producing a number of medicines specially formulated for use on animals.

Because of her soft nature, Seiko (similar to Mikan Tsumiki) was very loyal and forgiving to people who were friendly or helpful towards her. Because she was unable to eat Ruruka's sweets due to her medicine, she felt guilty and tried to compensate by helping her whenever she needed it. When Ruruka attempted to get her to kill Kyosuke Munakata, Seiko refused (and ultimately attacked Ruruka out of anger) because Kyosuke had helped her after she had been expelled from Hope's Peak Academy.

## Talent & Abilities

### Ultimate Pharmacist

Seiko garnered much attention from within the pharmaceutical industry because she had found new uses for already existing medicine. Vying for her talent, many pharmaceutical companies had reached out to her, claiming they want to offer her their extensive assistance, but she only accepted the minimum help with her research.

Seiko could create just about any kind of medicine, ranging from something common like laxatives and cold medication to more ludicrous concoctions such as strength enhancers and super-healing medication. She was trusted by the Future Foundation to distribute medicine to victims of the Tragedy. Seiko even created an Antagonist, which saved Kyoko Kirigiri's life even after she had violated her NG Code and been poisoned as a result.

### Combat

Seiko had some experience in fighting, or at least when she consumed one of her strength-enhancing concoctions. She was able to defend herself against Sonosuke Izayoi, someone who had much experience in fighting.
