Toko Fukawa

• Became an intern for the Future Foundation

• Became wrapped up in demon hunting

**Toko Fukawa** (腐川 冬子 *Fukawa Tōko*) is one of the characters featured in *Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc*and a participant in the Killing School Life.

## Appearance

She is always seen in a Japanese school uniform with a noticeably lengthy skirt compared to those worn by other girls (and Chihiro Fujisaki). She wears round eyeglasses, and her dark purple hair is tied in two long braids. The left side of her chin is marked by a small mole.

## Personality

Toko is intellectually gifted, but she has problems in social behavior. It's been stated that she either never learned or never bothered to learn social skills. She even considers herself a gloomy outcast, often deciding to have a distance in others.

Due to the constant bullying she faced as a child, Toko is highly suspicious of other people, frequently accusing them of thinking bad things about her. She expresses her opinions freely and extremely bluntly, which can come across mean and more than often rubbing people the wrong way, though she claims she is just being honest. She has unusually quick tendencies to self-victimize and she refuses to believe compliments from other people. She also is very self-conscious about her body and tends to think that other people consider her very ugly. At times, in *Another Episode*, she tries to appear as young as possible and she is paranoid that others might consider her "an old hag", presumably because many women are considered undesirable in Japan if they are not married by their mid-twenties. However, she is also offended if her body is not considered attractive and adult-like.

Toko could often be seen stalking Byakuya Togami, seeing him as the “ideal boyfriend”, behaving submissively toward him and calling him "master". After revealing her alternate identity, Genocide Jack, Toko's crush on Byakuya took on a more distinctively sexual undertone, and she was capable of neither proper judgment, nor control over her perverse fantasies. In *Danganronpa Another Episode*, it's confirmed that she's a masochist, though she also seems to have sadistic fantasies about Byakuya. Ironically, she has a tendency to scold other people for being indecent, sometimes with no good reason. Due to her paranoia, she easily assumes that boys have bad intentions if they wish to spend time alone with her.

In the first game, Byakuya was Toko's major motivator, to the point of harming others. Jack notably did so to Aoi Asahina, cutting her for slapping Byakuya when he relentlessly antagonized Sakura Ogami for being Monokuma's mole. Toko would rather be a blind follower of the group, even if the populist ideas clearly did not fit the situation. During the First Trial, Toko quickly condemned Makoto Naegi as a killer because Sayaka Maizono was in his bathroom.

As a result of her experiences in the killing game, Toko also became easily frustrated by people who give up and make excuses, calling them cowards. She accuses them of not being prepared to stand up for themselves, something that reminded her of her past self. She also took a stand in challenging her own fears; she no longer faints at the sight of blood, having taken Byakuya's advice about growing up. However, she still remained extremely disgusted at the sight of large amounts of blood.

## Skills and Abilities

Toko scouted by Hope's Peak Academy as a student in Class 78th. She has the title of **Ultimate Writing Prodigy** (超高校級の「文学少女」*chō kōkō kyū no “bungaku shōjo”* *lit.* Super High School Level Literary Girl).

Toko suffers from Dissociative Identity Disorder.
