Toko Fukawa

Touko Fukawa (腐川 冬子 Fukawa Touko) is one of the characters featured in Dangan Ronpa: Academy of Hope and High School Students of Despair. She has the title Super High-School Level Literary Girl (超高校級の「文学少女」Chō Kōkō Kyū no "Bungaku Shōjo") and she suffers from multi-personality disorder. Her other personality comes out when she sneezes (which is a reference from Dragon Ball Z) or when she awakens after fainting from seeing blood. That other personality is known as Genocider Syo (ジェノサイダー翔 Jenosaida Shou) and Ms. Genocider has the title Super High-School Level Murderer. 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 even 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. Fukawa survives the final trial and escaped with other survivors at the end of the game.

Appearance
Fukawa is always seen in attire that consists of a dark female school uniform (with a noticeably long skirt compared to most of the other female designs) and her glasses. She has long, dark aubergine hair that is worn in twin braids.

Personality
Due to her severe persecution complex that originates from the bullying that she had to live through in her younger years, Fukawa is highly suspicious of other people, frequently accusing them of thinking bad things about her. She has also caused others to give a bad first impression of her as she is known to blatantly insult others, even though it is the very first time they have met. It is because of that, Fukawa is more anti-social and would rather be a follower of the group regardless the common sense of the situation, even if some of them don't fit the puzzle of the crime. For instance, during the First Trial Fukawa quickly judge Naegi as a killer just because Maizono is in "his" bathroom without realizing that the room was changed.

Being a fan girl to her prince charming, Togami, Fukawa often stalk Togami and exaggerated to see him a ideal boyfriend in her life. After the revelation of her counter part, Fukawa becomes somewhat less introverted. Her crush on Togami takes on a more distinctively sexual tone and she shows herself to be incapable of judging which of her perverse fantasies which are too repulsive as a subject, loudly and at length, in a public place; caused her peer in odd situation. In addition, Fukawa obsession towards Togami so far that she has to hurt others whoever hurts Togami(Example, she hurt Asahina for slapped Togami over his antagonistic comments about Oogami that almost sparked the conflict)

During the investigation of the murder of Sayaka Maizono in the first chapter of the game, another trait of Fukawa's was revealed to be that she takes extreme dislike of blood. Apparently, even the slightest sight of blood would make her faint, causing a part of her to awaken known as Genocider Syo.

Execution
First Kiss Prank - Fukawa is thrown out in complete darkness. In the distance Togami can be seen, so she begins to run towards him and tries to jump at him, when a huge roller appears between the both of them. Although she tries to escape desperately, it catches up and kills her by pressing her into a thin paper-like appearance. This execution is only described in the official Visual Fanbook.

Byakuya Togami
Fukawa had a crush on Togami even in the pre-despair days, but she never acted on it during that time. However, she still tried to hang around him when she could and since he had no real feelings, positive or negative, towards her, he let her hang around, and by the end, when the school year taught Togami to 'mellow' out slightly (but only just), they even managed to have a few conversations that could be considered normal (Syo on the other hand is a different story).
