Yasuhiro Hagakure

Yasuhiro Hagakure (葉隠 康比呂 Hagakure Yasuhiro) is one of the characters featured in Dangan Ronpa: Academy of Hope and High School Students of Despair. He has the title Super High-School Level Fortune Teller (超高校級の「占い師」Chō Kōkō Kyū no "Uranaishi"). A rising star in the fortune-telling community, the accuracy of his predictions were actually only 30%. He was the oldest student, due to him flunking three times in the past. He survived the final trial and escaped with the other survivors at the end of the game.

Appearance
Hagakure has an extravagant hairstyle, which is dark brown. He wears three layers of shirts, the top one containing an old green uniform jacket, the second one containing a white rough shirt, and his third layer is a small yellow short sleeve shirt. He wears a big brown sash and uses a yellow rope as his belt.

Personality
Hagakure is one of the more laid-back students. He is very gullible and prone to becoming panicked. His first trait is especially apparent when he stated that he bought his crystal ball (which is made of glass instead of real crystal) at the price of 100 million yen due to it being used by Napoleon, Genghis Khan, and George Washington in the past.

Slightly slow in the head, he also tends to talk absurdly; a fact that leaves Asahina baffled. Hagakure really hates it if someone compares his fortune-telling to occult, frequently insisting that they are not the same. Furthermore, he fears ghosts, and would freak out if such subject comes up in the conversation. He is also a fan of video games.

Pre-Despair Incident
Prior to enrolling at Hope's Peak Academy, Hagakure saved up a small fortune by offering his services as a Fortune Teller. Whilst his prediction rate alone netted him most clients, it is also implied that he scammed many more. He claims to have spent the money on rare artifacts of mystical origin, such as a 100-million-yen Crystal Ball that was allegedly owned by Napoleon and George Washington. These were invariably proved to be forgeries.

After attempting to "squeeze money out of" a wealthy female client, Hagakure became the target of her mafia connections. Unwilling to pay off his debts by either selling his collection or digging into his savings, Hagakure went into hiding for three years before taking shelter at Hope's Peak.

Execution (from official Fanbook)
'''Quiz Time! I Heard There's a Chance of 30%!''' - Hagakure is a contestant on a quiz show set. Before him there are 3 doors labeled 'A', 'B', and 'C'. There is a 1/3 probability that one is an execution. Hagakure tries to enter the 'A' door. The door grows hands and feet and escapes. 'B' does the same thing. Only door 'C' is left. He isn't willing, but a mouth appears on the door and eats him. This execution is shown in the Official Fanbook.
