Seiko Kimura (忌村 静子) is a character featured in Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School.

During her time in Class 76th at Hope's Peak Academy, her title was the Ultimate Pharmacist (超高校級の「薬剤師」 lit. Super High School-Level Pharmacist). After leaving Hope's Peak, her title was updated to the Former Ultimate Pharmacist.

She is a member of the Future Foundation and is the Branch Office 4 Director. Her responsibility as the director is the research and development of new medical techniques. She, along with the other Future Foundation Directors, is forced to participate in the Final Killing Game.

Early Life
Not much is known about Chisa's early life but at some point she was scouted by Hope's Peak Academy as either a teen or young adult as part of Class 74th alongside Juzo Sakakura and Kyosuke Munakata, where she was given the title of the Ultimate Housekeeper. After graduation from Hope's Peak, her title was changed to the Former Ultimate Housekeeper.

The Bombing Incident
At some point after this, however, Chisa, alongside Kyosuke and Juzo, offered to help Seiko after being expelled when she had nowhere else to go. (Despair Arc - Episode 04)

Final Killing Game
Chisa, alongside with the other Directors, attended the trial of Makoto Naegi; however, this was only a cover for The Mastermind Kazuo's plot to force the Directors to participate in the Final Killing Game.

After Makoto, Aoi Asahina, and Kyoko Kirigiri arrived at the Future Foundation base, Juzo apprehended Makoto on Kyosuke's orders resulting in Makoto getting punched in the gut by Juzo and the trial was postponed. Chisa joined Kyosuke in a room, encouraged him to not work so hard, then visited Makoto in another room to help disinfect his injuries. She revealed to him that she was the homeroom teacher of the Remnants of Despair and questions why he'd want to protect them after knowing what they had done. Pleased with his answer, Chisa encouraged Makoto to see Kyosuke's point of view on combating despair and to "combine their hopes for a greater hope".

She returns to the conference room to continue the trial; however, before any further discussion is had she, along with everyone else in the room, is rendered unconscious after a canister of sleeping gas was thrown inside. (Future Arc - Episode 01)

Nagito's Illusory World
Seiko appeared as an illusion in Nagito Komaeda's imaginary world following his death in the Neo World Program. She is seen still close friends with Ruruka and Sonosuke during their time at Hope's Peak.

Real Fiction
In Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony, it is alleged by the mastermind Tsumugi Shirogane that the entire Danganronpa franchise is fictional in-universe; a series of games, anime, and later live-action dramas performed actors. In particular, Tsumugi, who is the Ultimate Cosplayer, claims she is only able to cosplay fictional characters (breaking out into a bright pink rash whenever she tries to cosplay a real person), and the fact she is able to cosplay as the whole cast of Danganronpa game characters is used as evidence to support her claim that all of the cast are fictional. However, due to a number of holes in Tsumugi's story which make her an unreliable narrator, whether or not she was telling the truth is deliberately left up to the player's interpretation; as a result, it is up to the player whether they believe Seiko's story within the Danganronpa series was real, or a fictional story written by Team Danganronpa and performed by an actor.

Name
In the original Japanese, Chisa's full name is written as 忌村 静子. Her given name "Seiko" is written as 静子, compromising of the kanji for "quiet" or "calm" (静) and "child" (子). Her family name is written as 忌村, compromising of the kanji "mourning period" (忌) and "village" or "town" (村). Both her given and family name could be in reference to her reserved personailty and gloomly apperance.

Alternate Fates
Seiko appears as a cameo in Ultimate Talent Development Plan, which exists in a separate alternate universes where the casts of the games still attend Hope's Peak Academy, but no students are in peril.

Other Alternate Fates
In the Danganronpa 3 stageplay adaptation, while Seiko does not survive the events of the killing game the same as her anime counterpart, her antagonist is used to save not only Kyoko Kirigiri, but also Daisuku Bandai, Sonosuke Izayoi, and Koichi Kizakura from the NG Code Poisoning.

Appearance
Seiko is an adult female standing at 160 cm and weighs around (40 kg) 88 lbs with a petite build. She has pale fair skin, large purple eyes though one is hidden under her hair, and medium-length grey hair styled in large curls at the tips.

She wears a purple facial covering, short black jacket with several silver rivets and a Future Foundation logo pin on its lapel, long sleeved white button down dress shirt, purple gloves, short black pencil skirt held in place by a purple belt, long grey stockings, and purple. While normally unseen due her mask, she also has a set of braces.

After consuming some of her strength-enchancing drugs, her appearance and build change drastically. Her entire frame fills out with visible muscle enabling her to run and jump on all fours. The entireity of her eyes become a darker shade of purple with symbols resembling flames and visble veins around them. Her hair grows considerably longer down to her feet. Her teeth and nails grow long and sharp.

While attending Hope's Peak Academy as a part of Class 76th, Seiko wore a standard school uniform consisting of a red string tie, brown suit jacket, white button down blouse, brown pleated skirt, black stockings, and brown slip-ons; though, she acessorized by wearing a matching purple vest, gloves, and mask.

Personality
Seiko had a reserved personality and a stilted way of speaking. As a pharmacist, she had an extensive knowledge of medicine and drugs. She created many different kinds of drugs, including ones that can drastically change one's physical appearance and make them much faster and stronger.

Seiko is shown to be somewhat pessimistic. In a flashback showing how she met Ruruka, she spends her time lamenting the death of 1 dog rather than cherishing the life of the dog she saved. She also appears to show little compassion or optimism over changing the remnants, believing them to rotten.

Much like Kyoko Kirigiri, she was conscious of how easy it was for people to guess what she was thinking through her facial expressions, so she hid her face behind a mask. She got startled easily and appeared quite anxious, and, during her time in high school, she was shown to be quite shy as well. She was very meticulous while dealing with medicine.

Seiko was shown to be one of the most compassionate members of the Future Foundation, as she showed remorse over both Chisa Yukizome and Daisaku Bandai's deaths and was angry with herself for not being able to save them. During her high school years, Seiko was described as soft-hearted, and she often took requests from other students such as Teruteru Hanamura, Nagito Komaeda, and Ruruka Ando. She also loved animals, providing care for an injured animal at no charge, as well as producing a number of medicines specially formulated for use on animals.

Because of her soft nature, Seiko (similar to Mikan Tsumiki) was very loyal and forgiving to people who were friendly or helpful towards her. Because she was unable to eat Ruruka's sweets due to her medicine, she felt guilty and tried to compensate by helping her whenever she needed it. When Ruruka attempted to get her to kill Kyosuke Munakata, Seiko refused (and ultimately attacked Ruruka out of anger) because Kyosuke had helped her after she had been expelled from Hope's Peak Academy.

Ultimate Pharmacist
Seiko garnered much attention from within the pharmaceutical industry because she had found new uses for already existing medicine. Vying for her talent, many pharmaceutical companies had reached out to her, claiming they want to offer her their extensive assistance, but she only accepted the minimum help with her research.

Seiko could create just about any kind of medicine, ranging from something common like laxatives and cold medication to more ludicrous concoctions such as strength enhancers and super-healing medication. She was trusted by the Future Foundation to distribute medicine to victims of the Tragedy. Seiko even created an antagonist, which saved Kyoko Kirigiri's life even after she had violated her NG Code and been poisoned as a result.

Combat
Seiko had some experience in fighting, or at least when she consumed one of her strength-enhancing concoctions. She was able to defend herself against Sonosuke Izayoi, someone who had much experience in fighting.

Prior to the Tragedy
Seiko had gone to the same school as Ruruka and Sonosuke all through elementary, middle, and high school. The three of them first met when Seiko failed to save a dog from a car accident. Ruruka and Sonosuke were amazed at how effective her medicine was, and Ruruka took a liking to her. It was revealed after Ruruka tried to share her sweets with Seiko that she was unable to eat them, due to the dangerous side effects that sugar causes when mixed with her medicine. Because of this, and because Ruruka claimed Seiko as a friend, Seiko offered to help Ruruka in any other way that she could.

As a teenager, Seiko was scouted to attend Hope's Peak as part of Class 76th as the Ultimate Pharmacist and was classmates with Ruruka and Sonosuke. Because of an event that happened during their Practical Exam in their 2nd year, all three of them were expelled.

After being expelled, Seiko was implied to have been homeless and without a place to go when Kyosuke, Chisa, and Juzo Sakakura stepped in to offer her help.

Episode 04 - The Melancholy, Surprise, and Disappearance of Nagito Komaeda
During their practical exam in their second year, an incident involving Nagito's plot to stop the exam caused Seiko's super-laxative drug to be mixed into Ruruka's pastry, instead of a strength drug. This, combined with Seiko unfortunately receiving Nagito's bomb switch (which was later triggered, resulting in an explosion), resulted in Seiko, Ruruka, and Sonosuke being expelled from Hope's Peak Academy. Seiko and Ruruka both felt betrayed by one another in some way, placing the blame of expulsion upon each other, causing a rift in their friendship.

Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School - Future Arc
At some point in time after getting recruited by Koichi Kizakura for the Future Foundation, she became the head of the 4th Division. Her responsibility as the 4th Division leader was to aid in the development of new medicine and medical treatments.

Episode 01 - Third Time's the Charm
During a flashback at the beginning of the episode, Seiko was shown stopping Mikan Tsumiki from jabbing a needle into a patient's eye, quickly smacking it away.

Seiko attended Makoto's trial along with the other ten Division leaders of the Future Foundation. At some point during the discussion, Seiko agreed with Juzo's statement to execute Makoto for protecting the Remnants of Despair, as they needed to be exterminated. Soon after his arrival, Makoto was injured by Juzo, and Kyosuke agreed to postpone the trial.

Seiko remained inside the boardroom until an attack was launched by an unknown enemy. Seiko suspected that among their groups, someone had already told their location to the enemy. When a strange little ball with Monokuma's design was suddenly thrown into the room, she was the first one to notice that it was actually filled with sleeping gas. However, she and the others were quickly knocked unconscious before they could contact the HQ.

After she woke up, Seiko and the others found a Monokuma bracelet had been set up on their wrists. Monokuma, who had been resurrected, announced the Final Killing Game featuring the Division leaders of Future Foundation; the game started when Chisa's body fell from the ceiling.

Episode 02 - Hang the Witch
After Monokuma announced the rules of the Final Killing Game, Seiko showed her anger towards the Remnants of Despair. When she waited for everyone's vote for the attacker, Seiko witnessed Daisaku dying after he accidentally violated his NG Code. She immediately poured a substance into his mouth and confirmed his death.

In a vote to determine who each of the remaining members individually thought was the attacker, Seiko pointed to Ruruka, but mistakenly thought to have pointed to Makoto by Kyosuke.

Episode 03 - Cruel Violence and Hollow Words
Seiko was seen walking around the halls, tired and out of breath. She saw Aoi Asahina and Miaya Gekkogahara and gave chase to them. Later, she ran into Ruruka and Sonosuke and ended up getting into a heated argument with the former. She took her mask off, revealing that she wore braces. Seiko then ate some sort of green pills that she invented, causing her to go into a berserk-like state: her eyes turned purple, her hair grew longer, and her body became more muscular.

Sonosuke threw a knife at her as he and Ruruka began to flee, but Seiko caught it in her mouth and broke it before running after them.

Episode 04 - Who is a Liar
Still in her pursuit, Seiko tried to catch both Sonosuke and Ruruka. All of the traps that have been set by Sonosuke were easily thwarted by her immunity given from her green pills. She chased them down until her movement was halted by Sonosuke.

When Sonosuke let Ruruka escape alone, she tried to calm Seiko down and reminded her that they used to be friends. However, Seiko didn't accept her excuse, revealing her hatred toward both of them and saying that because of them she was expelled from Hope's Peak Academy. Seiko managed to destroy the door and continue her pursuit.

Episode 05 - Dreams of Distant Days
The episode starts by showing the backstory of how Seiko met Ruruka and Sonosuke and how she got to befriend them at a young age. Seiko wondered how their friendship could lead them to their current situation.

In an open area showered with stage lamp, Seiko saw Sonosuke and attacked him immediately. It turned out as a trap set by the Former Ultimate Blacksmith and injured Seiko's right hand. She quickly recovered her right hand using a substance injected into his right shoulder. Seiko was then shown fighting Sonosuke, but she smelled Ruruka and decided to go after her instead. Ruruka was afraid but then learned Seiko's forbidden action, which was letting someone step on her shadow. Seiko responded by breaking all of the lights in the room before Ruruka can walk on her shadow, and proceeded to break the window that was keeping the two apart.

After breaking open the window, Seiko chased after Ruruka before stopping and catching her breath where she meets Makoto, Juzo, and Hina. Miaya then appeared and tried to fight back against Juzo by sending missiles towards him, by which Seiko was hit.

Later, Seiko was shown walking by herself, thinking about how all she wanted was to be Ruruka's friend again. She also regretted that she couldn't prevent her comrades' demise. The timer on her bracelet goes off and she goes to sleep for the final time. While she was asleep, she was brainwashed into killing herself. At the end of the episode, Seiko is shown being hung up on a damaged wall, with a knife stabbed into her heart.

Episode 06 - No Man is an island
Seiko's body was discovered by Koichi. The knife that had been used to kill her had been removed by Ruruka to hide the true cause of Sonosuke's death.

Episode 11 - All Good Things
Seiko is seen in a flashback, revealing that she was brainwashed into committing suicide. She is seen slamming herself against the wall over and over again, breaking the wall and causing the water to leak into the building.

Side: Hope - The Academy of Hope and Students of Despair
It was later discovered that during the Final Killing Game, Seiko had developed an called Cure W to counteract the effects of the bracelet's poison. Kyoko had discovered this after her death and took the medicine before her NG code was triggered by Makoto surviving past the fourth time limit, saving her life.

Relationships

 * Childhood:

Ruruka Ando
Ruruka was Seiko's childhood friend and a fellow member of Class 76th. Ruruka always relied on Seiko to do jobs for her, something that led Seiko to mistakenly believe Ruruka was taking advantage of her. Ruruka also wanted Seiko to eat her sweets, but Seiko was unable to eat them, which made Ruruka very upset. Despite that, the two considered each other as close friends.

In the Danganronpa 3 manga, Seiko tried to eat one of Ruruka's sweets, which caused her to get infected and allergic to the point of almost dying. Ruruka then always went to visit Seiko while she was in the hospital and felt better.

Seiko, Ruruka, and Sonosuke all later attended Hope's Peak and unknowingly got involved in a school bombing because of Nagito Komaeda. Because of the misunderstanding, Ruruka thought Seiko intentionally gave her a wrong drug, causing her exams to fail. Seiko, in turn, was hurt by Ruruka's words and they both lashed out and let out the pent-up anger they had felt towards each other for years. In addition, they were all expelled because of the bomb incident. These events led Seiko and Ruruka to hate and distrust one another, each believing the other to be a traitor.

However, the two have shown to be regretful of what happened in their past. While Seiko engaged Ruruka and Sonosuke in a fight-to-the-death battle, Seiko remembered wanting Ruruka to be her friend and wondered when everything went wrong. Seiko did not know that Ruruka felt the same way, and was not using her, but just felt glad to have someone she could depend on.

In the manga, it was seen that Seiko and Ruruka were talking to each other about her past and fixed what they did. Seiko also asked Ruruka for one of her sweets because she wanted to eat one before she dies in the killing game. In her final moments before being brainwashed into committing suicide, Seiko heard Ruruka's voice telling her that she just wanted to be her friend.

A drawing from Lerche's Twitter shows Ruruka attempting to feed Seiko her treats in the afterlife, with Seiko appearing very unwilling and uncomfortable, especially since Sonosuke is threatening her with a knife.

Sonosuke Izayoi
Sonosuke was an acquaintance of Seiko's and a fellow member of Class 76th. The two were on good terms, both being good friends of Ruruka until the three were unknowingly involved in a school bombing because of Nagito. This led to them being expelled, and Sonosuke began to distrust Seiko because he believed she was responsible for the event. Seiko, in turn, distrusted Sonosuke, merely because he was Ruruka's partner.

A drawing from Lerche's Twitter shows Ruruka attempting to feed Seiko her treats in the afterlife. Sonosuke threatens her with a knife, demanding Seiko to eat Ruruka's treats, reasoning that they are dead anyway.


 * Class 77-B:

Teruteru Hanamura
While the two are never seen interacting, it's known that they sometimes mixed concoctions together like the doping corn soup. It is possible that Seiko created the drugs Teruteru sometimes used for his food. It's unclear if they were friends or if Seiko just helped him similarly to how she helped other people. Nevertheless, they became enemies after he joined the Ultimate Despair and she joined the Future Foundation.


 * Future Foundation Members:

Kyosuke Munakata, Chisa Yukizome, and Juzo Sakakura
After being expelled from Hope's Peak Academy, Kyosuke, Chisa, and Juzo helped Seiko get back on her feet and were the ones who invited her to join the Future Foundation. Seiko was especially thankful to Kyosuke, which is shown when she refused Ruruka's deal which involved getting him killed, although it is implied that Kyosuke would've killed her if given the chance. Seiko also showed regret over not being able to help Chisa and thought about not being able to save her from death in her final moments before being murdered herself. Juzo seemed to be a bit upset about Seiko's demise after learning of it from Kyoko Kirigiri.
