Shuichi Saihara

Shuichi has the title Ultimate Detective (超高校級の「探偵」 chō kōkō kyū no “tantei”), which is the same title as Kyoko Kirigiri from Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc.

Appearance
Shuichi appears to wear a black cap with a white strap most of the time. Underneath, he has has short black hair with a small ahoge. He appears to have very pale skin and thick, feminine eyelashes. His eyes are gambogeish grey.

He wears his high school uniform, which appears to be in a black uniform with five buttons on his right, another two buttons on his left and attached with his high school's logo. His pants along with his shoes seem to be in black as same as his uniform and his cap's color.

Personality
Shuichi appears to have a calm, serious and polite personality. However, he is also quite timid. One of his sprites portray him blushing shyly.

Even though he is a very skilled detective with superior ability and insight, he appears to lack self-confidence, as he seems to react with embarrassment when others praise him and he claims he hasn't accomplished enough to be called a famous detective.

He appears to strongly believe in Kaede Akamatsu, acting reassuring towards her when needed.

Ultimate Detective
Shuichi is a very skilled detective, capable of solving murder cases faster than the police. However, Kokichi Oma's secret society is so mysterious that even Shuichi does not seem to know any organization matching up with it.

Kaede Akamatsu
Shuichi seems to strongly believe in Kaede, reassuring her and telling her that "if it's her, she can do it".
