Toko Fukawa

Touko Fukawa (腐川 冬子 Fukawa Touko, spelled Toko Fukawa in the official English translation) is one of the characters featured in Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. She has the title of Ultimate Writing Prodigy (超高校級の「文学少女」Chō Kōkō Kyū no "Bungaku Shōjo") or alternately Super High School Level Literary Girl and she suffers from dissociative identity disorder. Her other personality comes out when she sneezes, or upon seeing blood (which also makes her faint prior). That other personality is known as Genocide Jill (Genocider Syo [ジェノサイダー翔 Jenosaidā Shou] in Japanese), who has the title of Ultimate Murderous Fiend (超高校級の「殺人鬼」Chō Kōkō Kyū no "Satsujinki") or alternately Super High School Level Serial Killer.

She is a gloomy novelist with a persecution complex. One of her romance novels, 'Before the Sea's Scent Fades Away', was a huge hit that managed to make fishermen become popular with teenage girls for a few months. Despite her young age, she has already won several awards and is constantly on the top-selling list.

Touko survived the final trial and escaped with other survivors at the end of the game.

She also appeared as a supporting character in Zettai Zetsubou Shoujo - Dangan Ronpa Another Episode along with her other personality, Genocide Jill.

Appearance
Touko is always seen in an attire that consists of a dark female sailor Japanese school uniform, worn with a noticeably lengthy skirt compared to those worn by other girls (and Chihiro). She dons round eyeglasses and her dark purple hair is tied in two long braids.

Personality
Due to her severe persecution complex that originated from the bullying that she had to live through early in life, Touko is highly suspicious of other people, frequently accusing them of thinking bad things about her. Her unusually quick tendencies to self-victimize quickly characterized her interactions with most of Class 78.

Because of that, Touko was more anti-social and would rather be a blind follower of the group, even if the populist ideas clearly did not fit the situations. For instance, during the First Trial, Touko quickly judged Makoto as a killer just because Sayaka was in "his" bathroom, before he explained that Sayaka had switched rooms with him.

Being a fangirl to her self-professed White Knight, Byakuya Togami, Touko could often be seen stalking him, seeing him as the "ideal boyfriend". After the revelation of her alternate personality, Genocider Syo, Touko's crush on Byakuya took on a more distinctively sexual undertone, and she was depicted as being capable of neither proper judgment, nor control over her perverse fantasies.

Her obsession towards Byakuya was her major motivator to action, to the point of inflicting hurt on others, as Syo notably did to Aoi, cutting Aoi on her arm in revenge for Aoi slapping Byakuya when he relentlessly antagonized Sakura for being Monokuma's mole.

Touko was known to be extremely hemophobic. Any sight of blood would make her faint; Genocider Syo will awaken shortly after. This, aside from sneezing, is the only known way that Touko switches to and from with Syo.

Prior to the Tragedy
Free-Time events with her reveal that she has had previous romantic experience, although they did not end well for her.

Her first love was a boy she had been friends with in elementary school. When she found out he was moving away to Shikoku, she realized that she was indeed in love with him. Being too shy to tell him in person, she instead wrote him a letter. The next day, she found said letter mounted on the bulletin board, believing it was the boy's way of making a mockery of her. This was confirmed to her when she talked to him again and he said he hated talking to her and was always made fun of because of it. When her teacher saw the letter, she said that she had a way with words, which started Touko's career as a writer. Genocider Syo's Free-Time events reveal that at some point in time she murdered the boy as Syo says she chased her first love all the way to Shikoku and killed him.

Another Free-Time event revealed that in her eighth grade year, a boy from the neighboring class asked her out on a date completely out of the blue. Touko then spent three days and three nights planning the date, deciding what movie to watch. She eventually decided to go with an action movie, but halfway through her date mysteriously disappeared. She later discovered that the reason the boy asked her out, was for him to fulfill a forfeit for losing a bet with his friends.

High School Life of Mutual Killing
At the start of the Mutual Killing incident of Class 78, she was extremely nervous about surviving, and as such, loudly accused everyone of persecuting her even though no one had, and then quickly became cooped-up and withdrawn. It was not until the first trial that more of her personality was laid out in the open, including her perpetual obsession over ham.

But later in Chapter 2, she started to fall in love with Byakuya, even requested Makoto to walk her to Byakuya, who was in the library on the second floor. However, the attraction is apparently far from mutual, as Byakuya not only seems utterly indifferent to her, but also had no qualms with accusing Genocider Syo, Touko's other personality, for the murder of Chihiro Fujisaki. However, Touko seems blissfully unaware of this fact, and, after the second trial, she always accompanied Byakuya wherever and whenever.

Execution
First Kiss Prank: Touko is thrown into complete darkness. In the distance, Byakuya can be seen, so she begins to run towards him. Suddenly, a huge roller appears between the two of them. Though Touko tries desperately to escape, the roller catches up with her and presses her paper-thin, killing her. This execution is only described in the official fanbook.

Relationships
Byakuya Togami

Touko seemed to be in love with Byakuya, in an unhealthy way. Byakuya did not reciprocate her feelings, though he often commands Touko to do a variety of tasks, all of which she blindly carried out. She even entrusted her secret of Genocider Syo with Byakuya, who then revealed her secret to the rest of the students during the school trial for Fujisaki's murder. Despite this, she remained madly in love with him. Her delusions even took her so far as to believe Byakuya intended to convey that he cared for her enough to worry about her personal hygiene when he told her she smelled, and needed to take a bath.

Genocide Jill/Genocider Syo
She generally disliked Syo because they share the same body; she could be accused for Syo's murderous actions, and she cannot get close to people because Syo may randomly show up (as it had on numerous occasions throughout the story). She will do anything to keep Syo concealed as to not allow her to get out and continue killing people, accounting for her reclusive personality.

Aoi Asahina
Touko would usually direct cruel remarks toward Aoi, for example calling her a "stupid swimmer" and "brainless mermaid" in the first trial. She also made many sexual and degrading jabs about her appearance.
