Angie Yonaga

**Angie Yonaga**, also known as **Ultimate Artist**, is a character from the *Danganronpa* series.

## **Charactah Account**

An accomplished artist and a foreigner from an island nation. Angie considers herself a conduit of the god of her island, Atua, believing him to always be by her side. She claims that her art is not created by her, but by her god simply using her body. The particulars of Angie's country are unclear; Angie seems to have a fascination in blood sacrifice, for instance. Despite the creepy details, Angie is rather cheerful and energetic.

After the deaths of Ryouma and Kirumi in Chapter 2, Angie forms and leads a student council to regulate everyone's day-to-day behavior in order to prevent anyone from killing or looking for an escape. Her influence ends up creating a sharp divide between the entire class and puts a strain on Himiko and Tenko's friendship. She is the first victim of Chapter 3. Angie is knocked unconscious and stabbed in the neck by Korekiyo Shinguji after walking in on him setting up a death trap.

## **Trivia**

* While Angie's ethnicity hasn't been stated outright, there are multiple implications that she is Polynesian.
	+ She is indicated to be foreign to Japan, notable from her non-Japanese name (that has been pointed out by Shuichi), dark skin and unusual use of language. She mentions living on an island nation in the center of the ocean.
	+ In her promotional artwork, Angie is shown to be carving a statue which bears resemblance to a Tiki statue, which is generally related to Central Eastern Polynesian culture.
	+ While in the original Japanese version Angie's island god is simply called the God, in the official English version he is called Atua, which means gods and spirits of the Polynesian peoples.
	+ In the bonus mode Love Across the Universe, she greets Shuichi with "alola" when she comes to ask him on a date. This is a reference to *Pokémon Sun and Moon*, which takes place in the fictional Alola region, which is based on Hawaii. The people of Alola use the word "alola" as a greeting, referencing the traditional Hawaiian greeting "aloha".
* Angie's Japanese title actually means **Super High School Level Art Club Member** - "art club" being common after-school activity available in most Japanese schools, where students practice fine arts such as painting and sculpting.
* In the original Japanese release, Angie and Tenko speak in the third person. Other characters with the same quirk within the series are Ibuki Mioda, Monaca Towa, and Gonta Gokuhara.
* Angie is the only character in *Danganronpa V3* who is always on the protagonist's side in Debate Scrums. Meanwhile, her portrait in the trials is always on the opposing side.
* Angie's portrait in the Class Trials after her death has angel wings and a halo instead of the usual red X due to her religious nature.
* Angie's English voice actor, Cassandra Lee Morris, also voices Aoi Asahina in *Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc* and Aiko Umesawa in *Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School*.
* In a poll hosted by *MyNavi*, fans voted Angie the 14th most popular *Danganronpa V3* student.
* Japanese gaming magazine *Dengeki* from April 27th, 2017 to May 22nd, 2017 held two popularity polls, one that was voted electronically and the other via post cards. Angie was voted the 15th most popular student in the electronic poll, and 5th through post cards.
