Polaris P. Polanski

**Polaris P. Polanski** *(ポラリス P. ポランスキー Polaris P. Polanski)* is a character featured in *Danganronpa: Togami*. She is Suisei Nanamura's silent assistant that assisted him during his investigation into the Legacy Crown Championship's killings.

### Prior Life

Sometime prior the championship, Suisei had hired Polaris to assist him in his investigations, which were usually taken by wealthy clientele.

### Legacy Crown Championship

Polaris would appear on the seventh day of the championship, alongside Suisei. Both would arrive to the island's castle after being hired by Mitsuzō Togami in order to solve the murders plaguing the championship. While Aloysius Pennyworth wanted them gone, once Suisei informed Aloysius that the one boat that could have sent them back was gone (as a result of the The Makabes ditching them), he reluctantly allowed them to stay to do their job.

Wordlessly, Polaris accompanied Suisei in his interrogation of both the Togami siblings, following along as the detective made Kazuya Togami show them around to find the more reclusive siblings to interrogate, namely Suzuhiko Togami and Saburō Togami. The former recommends Suisei to watch out for the brat behind him, which causes Kazuya to turn around to Polaris (but its unclear if Suzuhiko was referring to Kazuya or Polaris). The latter needs to get the door shut in his face by Suisei, following him grinning lecherously at Polaris once he spots her. Following those talks, Polaris learns of the Kuchinashi Village incident that lead to an outsider like Kazuya becoming a Togami like he was now, the conversation be sparked by Asa Togami and Yoru Togami's bullying of Kazuya for his status of being adopted. However, this is not enough to not get Suisei to press him for more details and mock him for being someone without pedigree, all while Polaris poured him wine to drink. From there, Polaris was present at the fire in the library that claimed the 'Asa' (in actuality a doll), standing by the doorway the entire time. Following the demise of Yoru on the ninth day of the championship, Suisei rallied most of the survivors to the cafeteria to reveal the truth behind the crimes.

This meeting has Suisei declare Kazuya the culprit, which causes the latter to start desperately defend himself. When he suggested Mitsuzō and Takaya Togami are the killers, its pointed out that both Suisei and Polaris were discussing the case with both during the time the murders occurred, something affirmed by Aloysius, thus giving their. During this discussion, she assists Suisei by giving him the video camera of Saburō's 'alibi': which was him dancing in the buff. Both had watched hours of footage to confirm that the video wasn't tampered with anyway, though Suisei notes that such a hobby was trash. Ultimately, Kazuya was condemned based off Yoru's severed head which was brought in by Polaris and, allegedly, found in his room. Thus, Polaris would witness him be dragged off to the dungeon.

However, later on, following the death of their client and a note saying that he was the culprit, Suisei would opt to leave without anymore stake to continue investigating. When Suisei departed in his helicopter, initially it was believed that Polaris would have left as well. In actuality, following the destruction of the castle thanks to a fire being started by Takaya Togami, Polaris would have been revealed to have been still there, something Blue Ink would come to know of given that Polaris was getting pushing her away via a wheelchair, amidst the debris. From there, Polaris would take out a tape recorder and whisper in it. What she said would have been deemed the 'reliance' that Kijō Togami was looking for and thus, declares her the winner of the championship.

### True Identity

 *Main article: Byakuya Togami*
In actuality, Polaris was merely Byakuya Togami who was cross dressing as a girl as a means of disguising himself. Following his victory in the championship, he took off his disguise to Blue Ink. He worked as Suisei's assistant since he knew that Suisei only took high paying cases, something the Togami Family would have no issue in paying off.
However, with the revelation that the *Legacy Crown Championship* remembered by Blue Ink and Kazuya were among many false memories created by the K2K System, it leaves it unknown if the Polaris identity was truly used during the actual championship. Given Byakuya's account had him officially be a participant, it leads credence that he wouldn't need to cross dress in order to participate in the championship.

## Appearance

Not much of Polaris's appearance is known. What is known is that she is a young teen with long blonde hair, wears contacts and a skirt is among her attire of choice.

## Personality

Silent, but obedient, Polaris is a competent and highly intelligent assistant that dutifully follows and helps out Suisei during his time in the Legacy Crown Championship. She is stoic and prefers to take a role in the background, opting to let Suisei do the talking and directing of actions. When needed, Polaris is capable of handling evidence that ranges from awkward (such as the video camera footage) or gory (like Yoru's severed head), without fail suggesting she is someone not easily phased by such things. Given she was able deduce and acquire knowledge on what the reliance was, while also hiding herself amongst the chaos the other participants were wrapped up in, it shows her deductive capability under pressure.

### Suisei Nanamura

Suisei hired Polaris to be his assistant and both traveled to Toajo Castle to solve the murders that were occurring during the competition. Their relationship seemed to be purely business, with neither showing much personal care for the other or interacting unless needed. Ultimately, Polaris was merely using Suisei in order to get to the competition and broke off from Suisei in order to stay on the island to become the heir of the Togami Corporation. Likewise, Suisei had no qualms in leaving his assistant behind once the client that requested him died. Given that their interactions took place in the K2K's fabricated events of the championship, its unclear if Suisei and Polaris ever actually met or had a relationship similar to what was shown in the unreality.

## Trivia

* Polaris's name is an alliteration, with her full name all starting with the letter 'P'.
* Despite wearing contacts, Polaris's true identity dislikes doing so, claiming that putting such things to one's eyes is the height of human stupidity. However, she also believe that glasses don't look good on women, which is why she wore contacts instead.
