## **Character Info**

Komaru Naegi is the little sister of Makoto Naegi, the Ultimate Lucky Student, who was kidnapped to use as a bargaining chip against her brother. She was kept in a small apartment in Towa City where she was eventually rescued by Byakuya Togami. Unfortunately for Komaru, she got separated from Byakuya and instead ran into Toko Fukawa. Komaru and Toko formed an unlikely pair as they wield their megaphone hacking gun and scissors respectively to destroy an army of Monokumas, defeat the Warriors of Hope, and escape Towa City alive.

## **General Information**

### **Entrance**

Komaru will look nervous and a bit scatter-brained as she looks around for her megaphone hacking gun. After a few seconds of nervous searching, Komaru will find her megaphone hacking gun right where she left it, on her side, before holding it out in front of her and readying for battle.

### **Kirby Hat**

Kirby will have Komaru’s hair on top of his head and a miniature megaphone hacking gun on his side.

### **Taunts**

**Up Taunt:** Komaru will look frustrated at her megaphone hacking gun as it doesn’t seem to be working. She’ll smack it a couple times causing it to accidentally fire a Break bullet down at her feet which startles Komaru.

**Down Taunt:** Komaru will face towards the screen and shout, “Dance!” into her megaphone hacking gun. Komaru will then proceed to dance a short version of the Monokuma dance from Ultra Despair Girls.

**Side Taunt:** Komaru will hold her megaphone hacking gun in front of her and shout, “Detect!”. A short cone of purple energy will manifest from the megaphone as it reveals a hidden image of one of the five Warriors of Hope in pixel form. The image will stay in place for a couple seconds before vanishing, but Komaru is able to act again after the image is revealed.

### **Victory Poses**

1. Komaru will walk up to a Monokuma-duck-themed training potty, which served as the save points in Ultra Despair Girls, and sit on it as she sighs after a hard-fought battle. Toko will be standing a bit behind Komaru looking embarrassed to be seen with her.
2. The camera will pan around Komaru and Toko, as Genocide Jack, as the two of them dispatch a pair of Monokumas with Komaru using the Break bullets from her megaphone hacking gun and Toko cutting them apart with her scissors.
3. Komaru will perform a quick twirl as she holds up her megaphone hacking gun like a salute. Toko, as Genocide Jack, will cackle madly to the side as she strikes her own similar pose but with her scissors.

## **Moveset**

### **Standard Special**

**Move:** Komaru will hold up her megaphone hacking gun and shout, “Move!”. This will cause a green energy bullet to fire forwards from the megaphone. This “bullet” fires on the slower side and does not inflict any damage when it hits an opponent. Instead, the Move bullet will cause its target to move back away from Komaru a short distance. This doesn’t work like typical knockback and instead will send those opponents back in the direction they came from. If an opponent wasn’t moving at the time they were hit by the Move bullet then they will just be moved horizontally away from Komaru.

### **Side Special**

**Burn:** Komaru will hold up her megaphone hacking gun and shout, “Burn!”. This will cause a small red energy bullet to quickly fly forwards from the megaphone. This “bullet” moves pretty fast. But interestingly deals less damage than her more standard “Break” bullets that get fired when Komaru uses her standard normal attack. What’s fun about these Burn bullets however is that they can be fired rapidly in succession allowing you to pepper your opponent with small fire attacks.

### **Up Special**

**Knockback:** Komaru will bend down to the ground slightly as she points her megaphone hacking gun at the ground and shouts, “Knockback!”. This will cause a spread of small cyan energy bullets to erupt from the megaphone and impact against the ground. The force of these Knockback bullets hitting the ground will be enough to propel Komaru up a short distance into the air. If Komaru is already in the air when this special is used, then she will be propelled up a shorter distance. Additionally, when used in the air the Knockback bullets will travel a short distance below Komaru moving in a spread-like pattern. If they hit an opponent they will take a small amount of damage and get sent down to the ground away from Komaru.

### **Down Special**

**Paralyze:** Komaru will hold up her megaphone hacking gun and shout, “Paralyze!”. This will cause a small yellow energy bullet to fly forwards from the megaphone. This “bullet” will only travel a short distance before disappearing, but if it hits something it will burst out in a small electric blast that damages any other fighters in its range with a small chance to cause paralysis to them. If it doesn’t paralyze them, it will just knock them away as per usual.

### **Final Smash**

**Ultra Despair Girls' Ultimate Hope:** With cackling laughter, Toko Fukawa as her Genocide Jack self, will appear next to Komaru brandishing her scissors. Toko will dash forwards at insane speed and if she can run into a fighter she will slash them with her scissors while also cutting open a hole into a cinematic cutscene that the fighter falls into. This cutscene will take place in the middle of a destroyed section of Towa City as Toko rushes forward once again to unleash a series of cuts using her scissors against the fighter. Komaru will support Toko from behind firing out a series of bullets from her megaphone hacking gun. These will mostly be Break bullets but there will be a few Burn and Paralyze bullets mixed in for some variety. After a bit of this Toko will leap back and stand next to Komaru as the two prepare a duo attack. Toko will create a giant ball filled with flying scissors and hold it up into the air as Komaru aims her megaphone right at it. An indicator will appear in the bottom right corner showing Komaru equipping a brand new bullet, the “Hope” bullet as she charges up energy with her megaphone. Together, Komaru and Toko will shout, “Hope lives on!” as Komaru fires the Hope bullet into the storm of scissors transforming it into a giant white laser of scissory hope that rips through the air and deals heavy damage to the opponent as it blasts them with so much Hope that they get kicked out of the cinematic and return to the battlefield as they get knocked far away from Komaru.

### **Extra Skill**

**Link:** Komaru will hold up her megaphone hacking gun and shout, “Link!”. This will cause a miniature Monokuma robot to appear in front of Komaru. By tilting the control stick the player can make this Monokuma robot run around the stage as well as Jump by using the jump input. The Monokuma will explode into a small explosion after a few seconds have passed but can be made to explode early by pressing either the Attack or Special inputs. Komaru herself will be unable to move, attack, or otherwise defend herself while she is controlling this Monokuma unit and if she is attacked then her control over the Monokuma will break causing it to explode instantly.
