Maki Harukawa

Maki Harukawa (春川 魔姫 Harukawa Maki) is a character featured in New Danganronpa V3: Everyone's New Semester of Killing.

Maki has the title Ultimate Nursery School Teacher (超高校級の「保育士」 chō kōkō-kyū no "hoikushi"). She was raised in an orphanage, where she learned to take care of children.

Appearance
Maki has long black hair that she has placed in two separate pigtails with red hair bands. She wears a red sailor school uniform, yellow tie, black skirt, and a flower pin.

Personality
Maki appears to have a very serious personality, as she doesn't really seem to smile much if at all. The only notable exception is the poster which shows her with a mysterious smile, having a finger over her lips, which is a sign of secrecy.

In general, Maki dislikes people and thus she is not very cooperative. She talks very little, so when she does, she states things clearly and she appears to be very confident about her arguments. She is also noted to have a frightening name "demon princess".

However, she is also good at taking care of others and she's very popular among children despite her unsocial personality.
