Tsumugi Shirogane

## Summary

**Tsumugi Shirogane** (白銀 つむぎ Shirogane Tsumugi) is a character featured in Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony and a participant of the Killing School Semester.

Tsumugi's title is **Ultimate Cosplayer** (超高校級の「コスプレイヤー」chō kōkō kyū no “kosupureiyā” lit. Super High School Level Cosplayer). However, she claims she doesn't like to wear her cosplays, and would instead prefer someone as passionate as she is to wear them.

It's later revealed that Tsumugi is the mastermind behind the Killing Game, which took place after the events of DRV2: Goodbye Despair. She, alongside Rantaro Amami, got out of the 52nd Killing Game, but they were 'punished' and 'executed' by making them participate in the 53rd Killing Game, with Rantaro effectively becoming the **Ultimate Survivor**, and Tsumugi became the mastermind of the 53rd Killing Game, which took place in the Ultimate Academy for Gifted Juveniles, entering it as a student alongside Rantaro, K1-B0, and 14 other students. She later murdered Rantaro, and place the blame on Kaede Akamatsu, **The Ultimate Pianist**, who wanted to end the Killing Game more than anyone, causing her to be wrongfully executed.

Much later in the final class trial, Shuichi Saihara shone the light on Rantaro's murder, effectively proving Angie Yonaga's supernatural prediction of Rantaro's murder having hidden inside a secret door in the library, where it was led through by a secret passage in the female's bathroom, and cementing the fact that Tsumugi was indeed the one who killed Rantaro, not Kaede, which proved the injust that Tsumugi had by bending the rules to her own side.

Tsumugi then cosplayed as Junko Enoshima and plung all of the remaining students into despair by telling them that all of their talents were mere fabrication caused by her Flashback Light, and that the entire Danganronpa verse is mere fiction, causing the remaining students to fall into despair.

However, K1-B0 choose not to give up and clung to hope, earning him the title of the **Ultimate Hope Robot**. The audience of Danganronpa then took control of K1-B0, making Tsumugi laugh hysterically at the fruitless efforts of Shuichi, Himiko and Maki.

However, much to Tsumugi's shock and disbelief, the Danganronpa fans, upon hearing Shuichi's claim about neither hope nor despair could settle things right, and the fact that he didn't believe that the Danganronpa verse was mere fiction, and believing that the Renmants of Despair still exist, chose for Danganronpa to not continue. In a desperate attempt, Tsumugi told them to reconsider, but all the screens of the show got shot down. Cruel realization struck on Tsumugi, knowing now that Danganronpa is over forever. She then left her execution to K1-B0, who didn't hold back, and proceeded to destroy the academy in a flurry of massive explosions. Tsumugi could be seen beside Monokuma waving at the screen with an upset look on her face, before getting squashed by a large piece of debris, killing her instantly and turning her into a bloody mess. K1-B0, upon seeing that Tsumugi is dead and that Shuichi, Himiko and Maki are still safe underneath giant pieces of concerte, smiled before activating his self-destruct mechanism, and flew to the dome of the academy, before exploding, destroying both the dome and the academy, allowing Shuichi, Himiko and Maki to escape to the outside world, ending the merciless and insane Killing Game program which is known as Danganronpa...for now at least.

**Stamina:** Limitless

**Range:** High Multiversal+. Varies with the abilities of the character that she cosplays

**Standard Equipment:** Flashback Light and Blackout Light, but she also can gain equipment of the character she cosplays

**Intelligence:** SuperGenius (Tsumugi was the one to manipulate the events of the 53rd Killing Game. She is manipulative and cruel, choosing to murder Rantaro and frame Kaede for his death all so that the Killing Game would not end due to the motive Monokuma presented at the time. She openly fooled her fellow "classmates" as a friend and comrade all the while secretly orchestrating the Killing Game and making sure that everything went according to the "setting" provided for them. Also, as a likely benefit of her talent, she is also a master of deception and trickery, able to fake her entire character as the Ultimate Cosplayer and as an Otaku throughout the entire killing game and subsequently fool everyone else around her by constantly saying how plain and simple she was), potentially Nigh-Omniscient (As the creator of the Danganronpa multiverse, Tsumugi knows everything around her in the universe, but she couldn't predict that fact that the Danganronpa fans would abandon the show and find it boring)

**Weaknesses:** Tsumugi is insane, arrogant and sadistic. She cannot use more than one cosplay, limiting the amount of abilities she can use at a time

**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

**Ultimate Cosplayer:** Tsumugi has the ability to cosplay any character that she likes. She herself states that she gets "Cospox" an allergic reaction where a bumpy rash spreads across her entire body if she cosplays as anyone that is real. In Chapter 6, she proves her talent fully by accurately cosplaying as multiple characters from Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc and Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair. She is capable of matching their appearances, voices, and mannerisms perfectly, making her imitations even more accurate than Ultimate Imposter's. And by cosplaying a character, she can copy its abilities to the maximum, as shown when she cosplayed as Junko Enoshima during the last class trial, and induced despair in the remaining students. However, much like the Ultimate Imposter, Tsumugi can only copy one character at a time, which limits the abilities that she gains to what the character that she cosplayed actually has.

**Flashback Light:** A device in the shape of an electronic light torch used to implant false memories into its participants for the purpose of creating an exciting story for the Killing Game. Originally the Flashback Lights were presented as a tool for curing amnesia to goad the participants into using them. When used on a participant, the world around them is described as "warping" or "twisting". While the Flashback Lights' primary purpose is to implant memories, they can also replace old memories, and memories replaced by the Flashback Light can never be returned.

**Blackout Light:** A device in the shape of an electronic light torch. It has the same appearance as the Flashback Light. However, while the Flashback Light implants and replaces memories, the Blackout Light erases them. And much like the Flashback Light, the memories erased by the Blackout Light can never be returned.

**Note 1:** Tsumugi was confirmed to be able to cosplay as fictional character which include characters from outside the danganronpa verse like Zankai zero: last beginning . Also made some reference about Nasuverse and other fictional verses.

**Note 2:** While Tsumugi's death by a piece of debris falling on her doesn't make any sense with her scaling, the fact that she was the one to manipulate the plot of the verses all along, and that after the Danganronpa show closed forever when she stated that she cannot live in a world without Danganronpa heavily implies that she manipulated the plot so that she can be killed by K1-B0.

**Note 3:** There are few contradictions about Tsumugi not being able to mimic the powers and abilities of the characters she cosplay. To nullify this fact, Tsumugi has shown some abilities of some of the Danganronpa cast, like Toko and Syo's Multiple Personality's switch, Junko's Gyazu's shapeshifting, Nekomaru Nidai's Lightning Manipulation (Which comes around his body, and initially appears on the corner of his eyes when he gets angered or excited), and the list goes on.

**Note 4:** To further prove that Tsumugi is High 2-A, she herself showed that her cospox is a lie, due to the fact that she herself stated that she only cosplayed with characters of the first two seasons due to the fact that she implanted only the memories of the first two seasons of Danganronpa inside the heads of the participants of the 53rd season just to go along with and trick them, where Rantaro, who participated in the 52nd season, was actually a real person, until he became "Fictional", just like the others in the 53rd season, implying that Tsumugi can make real people "fictional" in a sense. As such, this would mean that Tsumugi would view the real world as fiction, which would make her legit High 2-A. Furthermore, due to the fact that she said that she can raise her head high as a "Cosplaycat Criminal", this would heavily imply that she was lying about the fact that the Danganronpa verse is fiction, which in turn, solidifies the fact that she is High 2-A, since she cosplayed with the majority of the cast.
