Komaru Naegi

Komaru Naegi (苗木 こまる Naegi Komaru) is the main protagonist of Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls and the younger sister of Makoto Naegi.

Komaru was a Captive for Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc's first motive and then a Target for the Warriors of Hope's Demon Hunting in Danganronpa Another Episode.

After defeating Big Bang Monokuma and managed to drove out the Warriors of Hope, Komaru alongside with her partner, Toko Fukawa vowed to remain and rebuild Towa City.

Komaru is often called "Omaru" by Toko and "Dekomaru" by Genocide Jack. In the official English version, Hiroko Hagakure nicknamed her "Koko".

Appearance
Komaru is a teenage girl around 15-17 years old.undefined

She has short, dark brown hair and desaturated green eyes. She also sports an ahoge, similar to that of her brother's, which developed as she grew. Overall, she is described as very plain-looking and "normal", which seems to be the same way people describe her brother.

When she was in the motivational video with her parents in the first game and its corresponding anime adaption, her hair appeared neater in a classic bob cut, and she did not possess an ahoge. The uniform she wears in this video consists of a white button-up shirt, a brown blazer, a brown skirt, and a red ribbon.

In Danganronpa Another Episode, she is revealed to be wearing the St. Tomoe Girls' Academy uniform, which is a sailor fuku with a white blouse, a red necktie, and a turquoise collar, line trim, and skirt. There's a school crest on the bottom right of the back of the collar, necktie, shirt pocket and the outer sides of socks.

Personality
Prior to the Tragedy, Komaru had a cheerful and optimistic personality, somewhat similar to her brother. She loved Makoto, telling her brother to do his best while enrolled at Hope's Peak Academy.

As of Danganronpa Another Episode, Komaru began as somewhat hypersensitive and easily scared. She wavers between hope and despair as a result of her forced imprisonment. She doesn't want to have strong hope, because she believes it will be lost eventually, leading to worse despair. She has a low image of herself, considering herself boring, ordinary and weak. After being encouraged by Toko Fukawa, she gains a desire to at least try to escape again. While she finds escaping hard and fighting even harder, she is willing to fight off hordes of Monokuma robots as she tries to survive the world's current catastrophe and find her missing family.

Komaru shows some childish traits, such as being very naive, reliant, and easily excitable. She also has an 'unusual' kind of pride, as she gets really worked up from the puzzles of the Monokuma Kids as if they're looking down on her. When she solves their puzzles, she brags towards them.

Komaru is also very gullible. This is revealed when Toko says certain things that are obviously false, and Komaru easily believes them to be true. She is rather innocent and doesn't seem to have much interest in romance nor sexual things.

Despite sometimes giving up too easily, there are other times which Komaru shows how stubborn and determined she can be. However, she has a weakness in complicated subjects such as basic computer science, but she does have moments where she is intuitive.

Prior to the Tragedy
Komaru lived a normal life with her parents and brother, though she states she could see ghosts ever since she was a kid. They also had a dog during her childhood. She sometimes didn't get along with her brother, but the two watched TV together, as well as shared thoughts on manga they both read.

In a typical day with Komaru and her family, her mother would always watch the same talk show at lunchtime, and her dad wouldn't shave his beard on Saturday when he didn't have to work.

She had many friends in school, including a girl called Chieko.

During the Tragedy
Komaru was one of the countless people who learned of the mutual killings committed by the high school students in Hope's Peak Academy when it was too late to stop it. She, like everyone else, had witnessed the Tragedy that plummeted the entire world into despair.

During that event, she lost seven of her classmates during one of the many accidents resulting from the Tragedy and her friend Chieko disappeared. She kept telling herself that everything would be alright, but realized how hopeless it was when a group of unknown men attacked her house, separated her from her parents, and confined her in an apartment complex in Towa City when she was still a middle schooler.

Because she had no communication or connections to the outside world (besides the food given to her everyday by her kidnappers), she had no idea about the mutual killing that her brother was involved in and the existence of Monokuma.

The kidnappers, Ultimate Despair, planned to make her and the other captives to kill each other. This would then be shown to the students of 78th Class and act as a motive to convince the students to kill each other. However, this did not happen because Junko Enoshima was executed and the Mutual Killing Game ended before the motive could be established. As a result, Komaru and the other captives remained imprisoned in Towa City for one and a half years.

Chapter 1 - To Survive
During the Mutual Killing incident of 78th Class, Monokuma gave Makoto a "motivational video" showing the Naegi family offering encouragement to him - Komaru was seen cheering her brother on. After that, the video glitched out before showing the destroyed living room and no sign of Makoto's family. The videos were made to motivate the students into killing each other.

Prologue - The Warriors of Hope
One and a half years after Komaru's imprisonment, the Warriors of Hope invaded Towa City with their army of Monokuma Units and Monokuma Kids.

Komaru heard a banging on the door during her breakfast. She rushed up to the door and begged for help, only to be attacked by a Monokuma Unit. She hurried away, only to realize that the building was aflame. Komaru soon ran toward the elevators while being chased by the Monokuma. She thudded heavily on the door of an elevator, and the elevator subsequently opened to reveal Byakuya Togami and some Future Foundation agents. Byakuya, using his Megaphone Hacking Gun, destroyed the Monokuma that was chasing her. Byakuya explained that they were assigned to rescue Captives. However, before the agents are able to escort Komaru, several more Monokuma units suddenly appeared, eliminating all of the agents save for Byakuya, who then lends Komaru his spare Hacking Gun and commands her to flee and fight against the Monokumas using it. As she fled into the elevator, Byakuya held off the Monokumas. The elevator then closed, leaving Byakuya's fate unknown.

After escaping from the apartment, Komaru arrived in the streets, where she witnessed Monokumas slaughtering innocent people. She then fled to the family restaurant across from the apartment, which Byakuya suggested her to go to because it was supposedly where an agent of the Future Foundation stood by. Komaru was dumbfounded when the scene inside the restaurant appeared oddly normal considering the current circumstances. She anxiously directed the clerk to call the police, but it was too late as Monokumas soon broke into the building, almost instantly killing all of the people inside, including the clerk. Suddenly, a newscaster broadcasted, informing all of Towa City to evacuate.

Komaru attempted to hide in the restaurant, but she soon became aware that if she hid, it wouldn't be long before she was found and killed by Monokumas. Plucking up her courage, she begun to fight Monokumas using the Hacking Gun she received from Byakuya. Although she was still confused about the usage of the weapon, she still managed to get rid of all Monokumas inside the restaurant.

Afterwards, Komaru heard the sound of a girl laughing coming from the television, drawing her attention. She was surprised when she looked up at the TV, as she found the newscaster's corpse was being toyed with by a group of children. The children introduce themselves as the Warriors of Hope, who have but one goal: turning Towa City into the children's paradise, one without adults. This startled Komaru, who takes a while to take it all in.

After the deranged broadcast is finished, Komaru decided to look for the Future Foundation man that Byakuya told her about, shortly finding the man to be injured on the backdoor of the restaurant. The agent mentioned Komaru as the Captive, advising her to escape from the backdoor straight ahead to the park, where the Future Foundation helicopter waited for them. Worried about the wounded agent, Komaru asked him to join her, but the agent refused when some Monokumas catch sight of them. Feeling intense guilt, she left the man to fight single-handedly with Monokumas.

Soon afterwards, she arrived at the park, meeting with four members of the Future Foundation next to their helicopter. After Komaru introduced herself, the agents confirmed her as the Captive. Komaru, still worried about the agent in the family restaurant, requested one of the agents to look after him. The rest of the agents then explained to Komaru the Future Foundation, the Tragedy, Towa City, and the Towa Group. After being told to leave immediately, Komaru became afraid, as all she wanted was to be reunited with her family.

One of the agents wanted to answer Komaru's question about her family's condition, but they were interrupted when they heard a singing child's voice. Komaru was astonished to find the singing voice came from a Monokuma kid, a child wearing a Monokuma mask, who brought the corpse of one of the agents. Komaru became the only person to safely arrive inside the helicopter. However, a Monokuma had already sabotaged the helicopter, causing it to subsequently crash.

Somehow, Komaru survived the crash, and was taken by the Servant to the Warriors of Hope's base. The Servant then returned Komaru's Hacking Gun after he analyzed and weakened it for the sake of "game balance." After that, the Servant warned her not to mention the gun to the other Warriors of Hope and left her. Komaru completed a test and reached the main hall where the Warriors of Hope waited.

Each of the Warriors of Hope introduced themselves. Komaru asked them to stop their manslaughter since she discovered the fact that they, with the mage Monaca Towa's power, control the Monokumas. But Nagisa Shingetsu replied that they won't stop until their paradise, the children's paradise, is completed. Monaca suddenly became enraged because Komaru didn't understand what they were talking about, causing all of the Warriors of Hope to immediately try calming her.

The Warriors of Hope then tell Komaru that they'll commence a game including Komaru, known as "Demon Hunting", where the Warriors of Hope release a Demon (an adult) into Towa City as a Target. Then the Warriors of Hope would compete to see who could hunt it down first. Suddenly from Komaru's back, the Servant appeared and snapped a Monokuma Bracelet on her wrist, and again reminded her to keep the fact that he gave her back the Hacking Gun a secret. Not long after this, the Warriors of Hope opened a trap door, plummeting Komaru through it by parachute back down into Towa City.

Chapter 1 - Crying for Love in Hell
After falling out of the Warriors of Hope's airship, Komaru landed on the rooftop of a building, which is shortly revealed to be a hospital. She saw Monokumas coming after her and cowered, hoping someone would help her. Suddenly, the murderous fiend known as Genocide Jack appeared and swiftly disposed of the Monokumas. Jack then asked Komaru whether the person she just saved is "Komaru Naegi" or not.

After Komaru confirmed this, a Monokuma Unit appeared from every side of the building. Jack then decided to bring Komaru to a safe place and asked her if she met Byakuya, as she could smell his scent from Komaru's Hacking Gun. When Jack begun to count down the time before she hurts Komaru for failing to answer, she suddenly sneezed and switched to Toko.

Toko, who can now manage Jack, said that she is an ally and will help Komaru to escape from the Monokuma units. After they get rid of the Monokumas on the rooftop, Toko properly introduced herself to Komaru, explaining to her that she has two split personalities. Komaru learned that Byakuya has been captured by the Warriors of Hope and that Toko decided to remain in Towa City to rescue him.

After they managed to escaped from the hospital, Komaru asked Toko some questions which she reluctantly answers. Komaru explained to Toko that her only plan is to escape from the city because if she stays, she will relentlessly be attacked by the Monokuma Units. However, she changes her plan to sticking together with Toko to search for and save Byakuya. Komaru, who was very thankful that Toko allowed her to be with her, hugged her, surprising Toko.

Komaru spotted a bridge that they could use to escape from the city, so the girls decided to head for Towa Bridge, where they then met Yuta Asahina, Aoi Asahina's younger brother. He introduced himself, and Toko recognized his last name. He also wrote Komaru's name on his palm 3 times, saying he believes it to be the best way to remember someone's name.

They hoped to cross the bridge in order to escape, but soon found that half of the bridge had been destroyed. The remaining half of the bridge was then suddenly demolished by the Monokuma Kids using dynamite planted on the bridge. The three were able to escape in time. Yuta then attempted to swim out of the city, but was interrupted by Komaru, who asked him if it was really far to the other shore, and Toko added that maybe there were some strange creatures living in the sea due to the pollution. Yuta, however, answered confidently that the only thing that he needed was to be careful, even though it would be troublesome. Toko tried to stop him, but Yuta had already made up his mind.

While swimming, his bracelet was activated (as a result of being too far from Towa City) and exploded, killing Yuta instantly. Devastated by what had happened to Yuta, Komaru burst into tears, saying it's impossible to escape. But Toko encouraged the despairing Komaru to at least die trying to find a way out instead of waiting to die (she added quietly that those were words quoted from Makoto). The pair then tried to use the underground subway station to escape by returning to the place where they left the hotel first.

Upon their arriving at the underground subway station, the gate was reinforced by a shutter. Komaru started to panic, so Toko said that the shutter was locked by someone and that there must be a clue left somewhere. After searching, they found a key from the corpse of a station worker who was killed by the Monokuma Kids.

When Komaru took the key, a Monokuma Kid suddenly hit her and stole it. Komaru and Toko then chased the Monokuma Kid until they arrived at a construction site. Inside, the Monokuma Kid climbed the building because he knew that Komaru and Toko couldn't climb. Komaru suggested they go around the building entrances and trap the Monokuma Kid in a dead end. Arriving at the dead end, they found a challenge letter from the Monokuma Kid to come to the hospital, the place where Komaru and Toko's journey began. After they manage to beat the Monokuma Kid, who ran away crying, they take the key from the safe and return from the hospital to the underground subway station.

In front of the subway station, Komaru and Toko stumbled upon a female adult who was panicking, unable to say things clearly, and kept apologizing to Komaru and Toko. After conversing with the adult, they were finally able to open the shutter and go downward. However, all they could see was pitch-black darkness, until suddenly, the pair are illuminated by spotlights.

Komaru and Toko realized that they had been trapped in the center of a coliseum full of a cheerful audience of Monokuma Kids and the leader of the Warriors of Hope, the 'Hero' Masaru Daimon appeared. He boastfully claimed that he will be the one to banish all of the "demons" from Towa City to make a paradise for the children. After saying this, he opened a trapdoor beneath him, revealing the corpses of countless adults. Masaru stated that those are all the remains of the adults that he has killed.

As the Monokuma Kids continued their applause, Masaru began to feel fear; something which he apparently never felt in any of his his previous "demon slaying sessions." Seeing his left hand trembling, Masaru entered a state of panic, mixed with the resurfacing of his abusive past. He frantically chanted to himself over and over how "heroes aren't afraid of anything", then proceeded to beat his own left arm for trembling in fear. Komaru tried to calm him down, but after he finished panicking, his arm now completely purple with bruises, he seemed only more determined to defeat the girls.

Following a fierce battle, the girls overcame Masaru and his robot, which resulted in the Monokuma Kids executing him as his punishment for losing. Komaru was horrified at what they did to him, but Toko replied that his execution was too simple (since she has already witnessed even more horrific executions during the killing school life). The two left, only to find that another subway station had opened. The two then decided to enter, aiming to find an egress from the town. Someone, however, had already been watching them without their knowing.

Chapter 2 - Legend of the Revolution
Komaru and Toko entered the opened subway station only to find an unmoving train. Feeling down for a moment, Komaru finally decided to walk along the railway. As Komaru and Toko advanced, an earthquake struck, causing the ceiling to collapse. Toko, falling unconscious after a rock hit her, switched to Genocide Jack who quickly dashed back to the entrance followed by Komaru. At the very last second Komaru and Jack managed to escape the destroyed tunnel.

After Jack sneezed and switched to Toko again, Komaru suddenly got depressed and wondered if she could really escape from Towa City. Just before Toko could rally Komaru again as she had after Yuta's death, two Monokuma Kids approached them with a TV connected to the Warriors of Hope's headquarters and the 'priest' Jataro Kemuri appeared on the screen.

Jataro introduced himself to the girls before he explained that Komaru, the one with the wristband, can't leave the city because she is one of the Warriors of Hope's targets. He also explained that there's a limit within the game. Toko guessed that's why Yuta's wristband exploded when he tried to leave the town. Jataro replied it wasn't the Warriors of Hope's fault, and that the wristband is made to explode when the wearer goes outside the town without permission.

Before Jataro left, in hoping it would make them hate him, he presented his masterpiece: a diorama featuring a giant Monokuma behind adults happily dancing together. Soon, however, the video changed to reveal the puppet master Monokuma moving the adults' corpses with wire and giant bolts screwed through their wrists. As the television shut off, Komaru cried. Toko once again rallied Komaru to not lost her hope to survive, saying that she was with Komaru to fight beside her and for her to rely on.

Komaru and Toko later decided to go the way they came first. On the surface, they were surprised to see hundreds of Monokumas and Monokuma Kids dancing. For their safety, they retreated back down to the subway. Toko, forgetting that she is afraid of the dark, suggested to go back to the underground, to which Komaru agreed, thinking that Toko was showing her how to go forward despite being scared. Annoyed, Toko eventually had no choice and the two of them traveled back to the underground.

After a Monokuma Kid then presented her a new Truth Bullet, Komaru wondered why the Monokuma Kids were giving her items and if the gun really belonged to Future Foundation. Toko guessed that there might be some kids in the group who wanted to support them. As they continued on, Komaru used her new Knockback Truth Bullet to defeat Guard Monokumas who suddenly attacked them.

Exploring the district deeper, the two girls then saw someone underneath a white sheet being kicked by Monokumas, crying and begging them to stop. After Komaru destroyed the Monokumas, she went to uncover the white sheet to check if that "someone" was okay. Komaru was surprised after discovering that the someone was a white Monokuma.

Just when Komaru and Toko speculated what and who he was, he then started to speak, surprising the two girls. Even though the bear confessed that he's not a suspicious bear, Toko ordered Komaru to shoot him. He was shocked and told them that he's different than the other Monokumas because he has an AI inside him, introducing himself as Shirokuma. Toko told Komaru to not be fooled by his cuteness, but was eventually fooled herself when he said that he wanted be friends with many pretty ladies. Shirokuma also confessed that he can tell the date and time of someone's first kiss, making Toko further fooled by him.

Once Toko calmed down from her "heated" imagination to uncover those "fraudulent career women's virginity", Shirokuma asked them why Komaru and Toko were in the city. Komaru answered that they had no place to go, so Shirokuma offered them a safe place to hide. Toko didn't trust Shirokuma, thinking he wanted to kidnap them. Shirokuma said that that the safe place is a secret base underground where adults are living in hiding. Komaru thought it a good idea to go there. Toko once again left with no other options, the girls follow Shirokuma to the adults's secret base.

After traveling for a while in the underground subway station, the group decided to take a short break. Toko, who still didn't trust Shirokuma, accused him of lying in wait for them earlier. Shirokuma admitted to this, but claimed that he watched them only so he could save them. Komaru asked Shirokuma why he wanted to save them, and he answered that he "just wants to save people." Komaru was amazed by Shirokuma's dedication and decided to keep relying on him as an ally, but Toko stayed suspicious. Shirokuma then led them down a hole with a ladder to the Towa City Sewers, where the secret base was.

Exploring the sewer, the group eventually found the ladder to the secret base. Shirokuma told the girls to follow him up the ladder, with Toko forcing Komaru to go first because she might die if Komaru saw her panties.

Komaru and Toko were surprised to see many adults in the secret base, which was an old warehouse used to store water tanks that the kids didn't know existed. Komaru questioned why there were so many trailers inside the base and Shirokuma answered that he brought them there to make it a little easier for everyone to live. He then let them meet with some of the other adults around the base before speaking with them further.

Komaru and Toko chatted with several adults until finally they met with a woman a bit different from the others. Komaru was surprised after the woman showed them her Monokuma wristband. The woman was glad to finally meet an "ally" and explained that there are plenty of 'Hit List' Targets hiding throughout the city. If possible, she wanted to save them and bring them to the secret base. She explained that nobody but Shirokuma was allowed to go outside unless they could sneak out, commenting that she has adults sneak outside to bring her cigarettes. She introduced herself as Hiroko Hagakure. Toko, who knew that the women was related to one of her classmates, wondered if she was his older sister or maybe the mother. Hiroko quickly nicknamed the two girls "Koko" and "Fufu."

Shirokuma them invited them to the conference room. Inside, he saw no signs of the leader of the Resistance. Shirokuma wanted introduce him to Komaru and Toko. While they waited, Komaru and Toko read several notebooks inside the room's lockers. Then suddenly the door opened and Haiji Towa, the leader of the Resistance, showed up. Toko, who didn't expect the leader to be a "handsome" guy, quickly introduced herself, followed by Komaru. Komaru stepped in before Toko could ask him nonsense questions and instead asked Haiji if he was related to the Towa Group. Haiji replied that he is the son of Towa Group's chairman, and had lost everything: Towa Group, as well as the entirety of Towa City, because of the kids. Haiji commented that he doesn't know the full details of Towa City's current situation, as the only one who does know is his father who has been missing since the riots.

Komaru became depressed when she suddenly remembered her missing parents and asked Haiji if he knew how to escape the city. He told her that all of the roads to outside the city are completely blocked and Komaru's wristband would explode if she tried to escape. Komaru desperately asked if she could somehow get rid of the Monokuma wristband, but neither Haiji nor Shirokuma knew how. Haiji advised that staying put and keeping quiet is the best move. Toko questioned why the Resistance doesn't try to fight the kids, but Haiji insisted that it would be suicide if they tried. Toko called him a coward, but he claimed that he's only waiting for the opportunity to strike back. When Komaru felt that Toko's harshness had gone too far, Toko confessed that she was also speaking to Komaru and criticized her for only making excuses rather than fighting back.

Toko then guessed that maybe Future Foundation's technology could get rid of the wristband. When Toko revealed herself to be a member of Future Foundation, Haiji angrily ordered Komaru and Toko to get out of the secret base and refused to cooperate with them.

Toko and Komaru decided to leave the secret base, but as they did they saw adults screaming while they watched a monitor. Shirokuma diverted their attention, saying it would be best if they didn't watch, and offered them to stay the night as it wouldn't be safe for the girls to go out at dark. He then led them to a makeshift room, which was actually a prison cell.

Shirokuma asked Komaru and Toko if Future Foundation would really come and save the adults, to which they replied that it's impossible to reach them. Shirokuma then gave the girls a wireless laptop developed by Togami Group that can send audio and video, noting that it wasn't available to the public aside from groups like the police and Future Foundation, and the girls could use it if they got around the jamming radio waves emitted from Towa Hills be climbing to the top of a building called Towa Tower. Toko asked why Shirokuma didn't send other adults for the job if he already knew all this, but he explained they're the only ones he trusts can fight the Monokumas and safely reach Towa Tower. Komaru insisted on going, as she wanted to keep trying to survive and move forward. Toko reluctantly agreed and the two decided to get some rest for the night before heading out the next day. Komaru, who could finally see a ray of hope thanks to Shirokuma, hugged and surprised the white bear.

The next morning, feeling refreshed after a night's sleep, the two were seen off by Shirokuma. Now above ground, Komaru and Toko made their way along the river side shopping district and finally arrived in front of Towa Tower. As they tried going inside, Jataro revealed himself and ordered a large group of Monokumas to attack them from every direction. Once they defeated them, Toko cautioned Komaru that they should be wary of a second ambush by Jataro and that the whole situation could be a setup by Shirokuma.

Once inside, the two tried using the elevator, but it wouldn't open without a key card. Despite Toko's protest, the two defeated the Ball Monokuma blocking the stairs and climbed the tower on foot. On the fourth floor they met a man with glasses who confessed that while hiding from the kids he was trying to program a way on his laptop to remove his wristband. Upon Komaru showing she wore the same wristband, the man regrettably informed her that until they are removed neither of them can leave the city; Komaru denied this, saying they would contact Future Foundation from atop Towa Tower using their laptop's wireless communication. The man understood and offered to try programming around the elevator's card key function. Even though he didn't expect them to want his help as they can't trust someone they just met, the girls gladly accepted.

At the elevator, the man had barely begun hacking around the security system when Junk Monokumas appeared, forcing Komaru and Toko to cover him. Once finished, he thanked Komaru and Toko, saying that because of them he finally started to see a ray of hope and that given a good connection Future Foundation would surely save them. Unfortunately, when the elevator opened, a Beast Monokuma emerged and attacked the man. After the girls defeated the Beast Monokumas, the man apologized for not accompanying them further but assured them that they would be fine. On his dying breath, he told Komaru and Toko that he has a child around their age and his only regret was not being able to see her one last time. Komaru then found the man's handbook nearby, and inside discovered a picture of him and his child; she hoped that the child was all right, while Toko was silent due to knowing the child's fate and recommended they move forward.

The two then entered the elevator, but just before Toko wanted to talk with Komaru about Future Foundation, the elevator suddenly stopped. The girls forced the elevator's door open to find themselves in a dungeon where Jataro and the audience of Monokuma Kids waited for them. Toko asked Jataro why he wore his mask and told him to take it off, but Jataro refused, telling them that "if they look at his face, their eyeballs are gonna rot off" and asked aloud why else his mother forced him to wear the mask everyday unless he was ugly. Komaru replied angrily that the kids' doing is unforgivable, no matter their reasons. The Monokuma Kids then boo at Jataro, making him more ecstatic due to being hated by even them. He summoned his robot, saying the only one who liked him was "Big Sis Junko." Komaru and Toko defeat Jataro's Priest robot, which destroys itself with a misfired final homing bomb shot, causing the Momokuma Kids to pull off Jataro's mask and 'punish' him.

Feeling no remorse for Jataro, Komaru told Toko to go with her. Toko tried to warn Komaru about Future Foundation one final time but but forgot what she was going to say, instead proceeding to enter the code on the laptop so Komaru can speak with Future Foundation. It seemed unable to connect, but just as Toko said they should give up, Makoto Naegi from Future Foundation 14th Division appeared on the screen.

Chapter 3 - Cute Girl's Battlefield
Relieved to see her brother safe, Komaru asked about their parents, but Makoto didn't know their whereabouts either. He calmed the depressed Komaru, asking where she was, and this in turn reminded her to ask why Makoto answered the communication. Makoto explained that he joined the Future Foundation and also reveals that Toko went to rescue Byakuya without orders from Future Foundation. Komaru realized that Makoto and Toko already knew each other and wondered why Toko didn't tell her, to which Makoto responded "that's Toko for you." Toko then told Makoto that Byakuya had been captured by the kids, which led Makoto to explain that he, Toko, and Byakuya survived after being trapped inside Hope's Peak Academy with their classmates and were forced to kill each other. The mastermind broadcasted the Killing Game so she could show the world the students of Hope's Peak Academy, the symbols of hope, falling to despair and death, thus furthering The Tragedy. The survivors resolved to join Future Foundation and fight against the Remnants of Despair, who were trying to spread despair to the entire world.

Toko suddenly cried after remembering the suffering of The Tragedy, while Komaru commented that she had no idea any of that happened due to her imprisonment. Makoto and Komaru told the other that they have changed, which they both denied, but ultimately Makoto apologized for Komaru's imprisonment, explaining that she and other people close to the Hope's Peak Academy students were abducted and used as motivation to incite the Killing Game. Fortunately the mastermind was defeated before that motive was seen through, although Komaru was still imprisoned long after that, most likely due to the the Remnants of Despair trying to succeed the mastermind's will. Future Foundation was in the dark about where the captives were being held, but a few days prior, they received an anonymous tip that captives from the Killing Game were being held in a certain apartment in Towa City. This was the reason Byakuya and the others agents saved Komaru, but the plan was ultimately scrapped leading to Byakuya's capture; Toko said that someone must have set up Future Foundation using both the tip and the captives being hunted by the Warriors of Hope as a trap.

Komaru begged for Makoto to remove her wristband and save her, but Toko interjected, saying that she would refuse to let this happen as it would put Master Byakuya in danger. She went as far as threatening to kill Komaru, but by this point, the wireless connection had cut off. Having found the girls, the Monokuma Kids shuttered the windows and plunged the top floor into pure darkness. Luckily a Monokuma Kid dropped a glow stick and tracked paint across the floor, leading Komaru and Toko to an emergency staircase. This was a trap, however, as the door exploded and briefly knocked the girls unconscious. Once they both awakened, Komaru shot a Bomber Monokuma, destroying a cracked window allowing them to escape to Towa Tower's second floor via ladder. They then cleared a handful more of Monokuma Kid challenges before finally exiting Towa Tower. Once outside, Komaru asked Toko whether she was serious about killing her, to which Toko responded that she was certainly willing to kill a friend if it meant Byakuya's safety. This led to a short-term rift in the twos' friendship but they ultimately returned to the adults' secret base together, with Toko tailing Komaru for her own "reason."

Upon their arrival at the secret base, the girls were greeted by adults giving them the cold shoulder. Shirokuma then appeared and brought them to the conference room to speak with Haiji, who brought up a plan to reason with the kids, which was immediately refused by the other adults. Komaru tried to support his idea but Toko reminded them that the children had no mercy whatsoever. In response, Haiji further insisted to lie in wait for a better opportunity to strike. Toko once again accused Haiji of being a weak leader, but Komaru sided with him, arguing that Toko did not understand the feelings of the weak.

Before the situation escalated further, an adult broke in the conference room and announced that Monokumas had found their base and were already massacring adults. In response to Shirokuma's plea, Komaru and Toko successfuly expelled the large group of Monokumas from the base. Despite their efforts, however, Haiji had the two girls imprisoned as he believed they led the Monokumas back to the base to begin with.

While held in a prison cell, Komaru cried tears of regret for causing the deaths of so many adults. Without warning, the 'Fighter' Kotoko Utsugi broke into the prison cell, telling Komaru that she originally wanted to hunt her but changed her mind and would let her go because Komaru was "adorbs." This was a trick, however, as when Komaru turned her back Kotoko shot her with her Denture Launcher, leaving her temporarily paralyzed.

Komaru then woke up to find herself fastened to a 'torture' device; Kotoko attempted to use the device's many tentacle hands to grope Komaru and steal her 'virginity' so she could endure the consequences of being a "cute girl." This plan was cut short, however, when Genocide Jack appeared and defeated Kotoko, and Komaru was rescued. The train then crashed into Kotoko's dungeon. While speaking to Kotoko, Toko used the Fighter's trigger word "gentle," causing her to lose her composure and call on her robot to fight the two girls. Upon the robot's defeat, the Monokuma Kids attempted to 'punish' Kotoko for losing, but Genocide Jack was instead able to save her for interrogation purposes.

Suddenly Nagisa appeared and requested that Komaru and Toko leave the city. Already prepared to persuade Monaca, Nagisa insisted upon letting them escape in order for the Warriors of Hope's Demon Hunting game to progress smoothly without further interruptions.

Chapter 4 - The Way We Live
Nagisa resorted to begging Komaru and Toko, and removed Komaru's wristband to show his sincerity. He also offered to personally guide them to a secret passageway out of the city. Despite originally wanting to escape, Komaru remained silent and yet went along with Nagisa's request for the time being.

On the road leading to the secret passageway, Nagisa, Komaru and Toko were ambushed by Monokumas and Monokuma Kids, shocking Nagisa as the Monokumas were not supposed to attack him. Toko guessed that the Warriors of Hope already discovered his "betrayal." As they made their way to the shrine entrance, the three encountered a pile of bodies at the corner of the road, prompting Nagisa to explain that the Warriors of Hope attacked the adults out of fear for them. He went on to tell Komaru and Toko that his father used him as a guinea pig in an experiment to see how far a child could be pushed before they reach breaking point, resulting in Nagisa's trauma. This led him to join the other Warriors of Hope in attempting suicide, but they were stopped by Junko Enoshima who instead abducted and encouraged them to fight back against the adults. They agreed, rebelling and murdering their parents first, then moved on to start "Operation Children's Paradise". Despite their unstoppable advance, Junko died during the events of the first game. Monaca, however, didn't despair and supported her friends to keep moving forward.

Komaru, Toko, and Nagisa finally arrived at a shrine. Nagisa revealed the secret passageway and ordered Komaru to left. But the Servant came in before Komaru could left. His reason to came was to persuaded Komaru to stayed at the city. He told Nagisa that he is a traitor due to his behaviour choosing to build paradise over the Demon's Hunting game, making Nagisa ran away.

The Servant rather disappointed with Toko because she broke her deal with him to escorted Komaru to the Warriors of Hope's main base and traded her with Byakuya. The Servant explained that their first encounter on the hospital rooftop was not a coincidence meeting. Toko was told by the Servant that Komaru was going to landing on the hospital rooftop.

The Servant was the one who set up all of Komaru and Toko's journey from the very beginning and the reason why he did so was because Makoto's doing. He defeated Junko, the person that the Servant trully hated and he wasn't there to witnessed Junko's death.

Komaru became so flustered and started to crying when Toko admitted that she was deceiving Komaru. She blamed on Komaru for trusting her. Toko didn't have much choice but to take Komaru with brute force as she switched to Jack and attacked Komaru until she lost consciousness. However, Komaru could saw that Toko was only acting so she could left the city and left Toko behind. Toko admitted it and forced Komaru to leave.

The Servant approached them, telling if Komaru escaped the city, the hostage's safety couldn't be guaranteed. He sprayed powder to Toko so she could sneezed and switched to Jack in order to kill Komaru. But the Servant didn't expect what happen next, he didn't know that both Toko and Jack not only share knowledge but also emotions. Jack's insting told her to killed the Servant so she cut his thigh. Just before Jack could kill the Servant, Komaru stopped her, vowing to help Toko and remained stay at the city.

The Servant later told them that he had a partner that planned to escort Komaru to the Warriors of Hope's main base, but he didn't really know his main objective.

In order to release Byakuya, they have to stopped the Warriors of Hope's rioting. Komaru suggested that they should have Shirokuma and Haiji to supported them. After the Servant directed them to the fastest way to reach the Resistance secret base, Komaru and Toko started their journey again.

Upon arriving at the subway station, Komaru and Toko destructing and collapsing an area, using the railway as ladder to go down to the sewer. The two girls kept up their pace as they could heard adults screaming from the secret base.

Komaru and Toko witnessed the adults massacred by Monokumas that ambushed the secret base. Shirokuma approached them and begged them to defeated the Monokumas.

Like they did previous times, Komaru and Toko managed to get rid of the Monokumas attack. Shirokuma told them the Monokumas were coming from a hole from the back of the base and he need Komaru and Toko to block it using a suicide attack. Shirokuma's body was packed with high explosives but his suicide button was damaged during the battle so he couldn't do it on his own. Shirokuma begged Komaru to shoot him so he could explode and block the hole.

As the three reached the hole, Shirokuma forced Komaru to shot him even he braved himself to attack Komaru so she could stop him by shooting him. Shirokuma thanking Komaru with teary eyes before he exploded.

Komaru and Toko woke up after they lost consciousness due to the explosion. Two adults approaching them, telling that the hole was already blocked thanks to Shirokuma sacrifice. Haiji step in and willing to acknowledge that Komaru and Toko's efforts proved that they were not spies. The adults reported to Haiji that they were on verge of dead due to Monokumas who were going to massacred them from the front entrance. Komaru, with a new spirit after witnessed Shirokuma's sacrifice. She step up to the radio truck and made her *brave heart* speech to rally the adults spirit.

Some of the adults were inspired by Komaru's speech and one of them brought Shirokuma's remaining head, surprisingly congratulating Komaru and Toko. He said that his AI chip is on the head so he would still continue to live. Haiji who already prepared everything told Komaru and Toko to get out from the Resistance secret base to go to a certain place where his "trump card" was hidden. Haiji ordered Komaru to get prepared herself because they gonna ride a motorcycle to the place where Haiji's trump card hidden.

The three using an elaborate elevator down to the hidden place which is Towa Group's secret factory that restricted to top executives only. There's a reason why Haiji hesitated to come to this place at first because they using Monokumas to guard the secret factory. The control office can't be contacted since the Tragedy and Haiji thought that the Monokumas inside had their control functions broken that they could attack Haiji. The trump card is deep inside the secret factory and the three need to took the elevator to the bottom floor.

Upon arriving at the third base floor, the three found that the elevator couldn't approached due to the constant lasers. Komaru, Toko and Haiji moved to the management room to insert the password to turned off the lasers, but inside the room, the worker who knew the password was killed by a Guard Monokuma. After cracking the password, the three finally arrived at the bottom floor.

The trump card revealed as a Big Bang Monokuma, an oversized Monokuma, the secret weapon built by Towa Group to defend the city. Toko freaked out, asking why Towa Group producing Monokumas in their secret factory. Haiji explained that Monokumas they made first actually introduced as a Maid Robot.

During their conversation, suddenly Nagisa's robot broke in to destroy the Big Bang Monokuma. Eventually, Komaru and Toko were able to damaged the robots heavily, making its parts bending one by one until the left arm fell and crushed Nagisa to death.

Haiji finally could activated Big Bang Monokuma and began his counterattack to the kids.

Chapter 5 - Absolute Despair Girl
After successfully activating the Big Bang Monokuma, Komaru and Toko were faced with a brand-new situation: the stress of the continuing chaos had driven the adults into a murderous fervor, inflamed further by Haiji and the presence of the humongous Monokuma, which was able to beat back the Monokumas that had been incessantly harassing the adults. The unabated hatred of the children among the adults caused both girls to become scared; Komaru in particular became frightened at the chaos she had indirectly caused through her speech in the underground bunker. It was then that Shirokuma, who had insisted that Hiroko bring his still-functioning head to Komaru, suggested to Komaru and Toko to invade Towa Hills while the Big Bang Monokuma continued causing chaos; he reasoned that the Big Bang Monokuma would keep the regular Monokumas busy enough such that Towa Hills would be vulnerable.

Agreeing to the plan, the girls fought their way to Towa Hills, becoming the first members of the Resistance to enter the building. While making their way through the building, they discovered several areas were blocked off by replicas of the mecha used by the Warriors of Hope. While searching for a way past the mecha, it quickly became clear to the girls that parts of Towa Hills had been converted into rooms for the Warriors of Hope, several of which revealed information about the brainwashed nature of the Monokuma Kids, causing considerable concern in both girls.

Soon after, the girls were faced with the prospect of becoming stuck in their mission because the only lift available to them for access required some form of identification. Haiji then showed up behind them, accidentally spooking them before he revealed that the only way to access the top of Towa Hills was retinal access granted by Tokuichi Towa's eyes. The girls learned from him that, rather than missing as he had previously stated, he was actually murdered by the Monokumas controlled by the Monokuma kids. However, since his head remained, his retinas remained intact and so retinal access would still be possible just by using his severed head. When the two girls arrived later at his office, they were scared stiff, but Komaru willed herself to carry his severed head in a tote bag, despite her fears.

Shortly after the lift access was granted, it became clear that Komaru had become too mentally affected by the severed head, eventually succumbing for a short while to hallucinations - which she thought was the spirit of Tokuichi possessing her body. Only with Toko's interference with a made-up chant was Komaru able to get rid of her hallucinations.

Komaru and Toko once again encountered Kotoko after they saved her from the Beast Monokumas who surrounded her. Kotoko confessed that she felt betrayed by Monaca who said that she didn't care about the paradise they were building from the very beginning. To proved that she was not accomplice to Monaca anymore, Kotoko gave Komaru and Toko information regarding the room where Byakuya held and the Monokuma controller room. Kotoko adviced them to met Monaca and get the key to the hostage's room as she left to get the Monokumas controlller device.

Komaru and Toko finally arrived at the torture room. Haiji who also searching for this room explained that the torture room is a  room where the kids torturing the relatives of all the adults that hiding in the secret base and throwing their bodies on the room next door. Toko wondered how the kids could learned the victims profile. They soon left Haiji alone inside the torture room.

As they gained further access into the various rooms across Towa Hills, the truth behind the riots in Towa City began to slowly see the light of day as the girls collected disparate pieces of evidence that strongly demonstrated various aspects of the Warriors of Hope's reasoning. They also found Monaca's room atop a high ledge only accessible by a ladder - Toko was greatly disturbed by the pictures of Junko Enoshima covering the walls and ceiling, but Komaru found herself wondering about something she couldn't quite place.

Finally, Komaru, Toko, and Haiji reached the Warriors of Hope's airship atop Towa Hills. Kurokuma told them that Monaca was sleeping in one of three rooms on the wall; to confront her, the Resistance had to choose the correct door. After a moment's thought, Komaru finally realized what had previously bothered her about Monaca's room; it was in a place that should have been impossible for the wheelchair-bound girl to reach. As such, she chose to open the door at the top of a ladder, prompting Monaca to emerge and reveal that she had full use of her legs after all.

After a short confrontation between Haiji and Monaca, the latter called on Kurokuma to summon their battle robot, which appeared to be a combination of the robots used by the other Warriors of Hope. Komaru and Toko were able to defeat them, leading to Kurokuma having his head sent flying of his body, through the window, and falling down to the ground. Seemingly defeated, Monaca gave Komaru her Monokuma controller, explaining that destroying the controller would shut the entire army down.

However, Komaru was hesitant to break the controller, realizing that something wasn't right. Her distress increased as Haiji began pressuring her to destroy the controller, reminding Komaru that it was her words that had inspired the adult Resistance to fight back against the Warriors of Hope. To make matters worse, Kotoko suddenly appeared, warning Komaru not to break the controller - if she did, it would kill the Monokuma Kids by detonating their helmets. As Haiji, Kotoko, and Monaca argued, Komaru was left paralyzed by indecision, especially when she realized that the adults had no compunctions about letting the brainwashed Monokuma Kids die to end the war. When Monaca showed a video of Komaru's parents dead in a torture room, Komaru fell into complete despair, deciding to break the controller and be done with the madness. Monaca gleefully revealed that her true goal was to turn Komaru into "Junko Enoshima II", driving her to despair by forcing her to choose between the tormented-but-bloodthirsty adults and the brainwashed children.

Suddenly, Toko took the controller from Komaru to prevent her from breaking it. Monaca questioned why she did that, saying it's her duty to Byakuya and the Future Foundation to eliminate all despair (referring to the Monokumas). Toko agreed, but added that she also doesn't want to let despair spread to Komaru, the Monokuma Kids, or anywhere else. Haiji then got angry at her for refusing to destroy the controller to save the adults, even if it means killing all the kids (since they were the ones trying to kill them). But Kotoko attacked Haiji in order to help Toko. But then, the giant Big Bang Monokuma began attacking the ship. Monaca claimed that it is being controlling by someone (being Shirokuma) to try and kill them all. In panic, Haiji, Kotoko, and Toko (who dragged the despaired Komaru with her) escaped the crumbling room. Monaca, however, remained at the room and smiled insanely as the Big Bang Monokuma attacked her.

Later on, Toko slapped the despairing Komaru out of it (physically and mentally) and asked her whom she wanted to save, the adults or the children. In a burst of tears and a regain of sanity, Komaru answered that she wanted to save both. Then, the Big Bang Monokuma approached them. Komaru then wiped her tears and with Toko, confidently began to fight against it. Upon defeating it, the Big Bang Monokuma's head blasted off and ended up landing back on the body upside down. Shirokuma's head then blasted off the Big Bang Monokuma's evil red eye before the giant robot collapsed.

Komaru and Toko who got the storage room key from Monaca immediately saved Byakuya but on the half way, Komaru suddenly vowed to save both adults and children by staying in Towa City.

Epilogue - The Changing World We Made
During the Epilogue, Komaru told Toko that she decided to stay at the city. Toko became furious, complaining why she's staying despite wanting to leave so much before. Komaru first said that she finally gained confidence in herself after she made her first decision by herself on protecting both the adults and the children. Komaru then said that she's staying because if she left with Byakuya and Toko, the Future Foundation will find out about the dark secret revolving the Towa Corporation, which will lead to the Remnants of Despair gathering at Towa City, and ending in a war.

So Komaru decided to stay as a hostage so Byakuya and Toko can convince the Future Foundation to not attempt anything on the city. Toko then said that she decided to stay as well because she was her friend and the two of them barely cover as a hostage for Byakuya. Komaru asked about Toko's desire to be with Byakuya. Toko then replied that no matter how far they are, their feelings for each other will remain the same. Byakuya, who was locked in a nearby room, called them and said that Toko was right, since he will remain to have no feelings for Toko, much to Toko's shock.

Later on, Byakuya showed a video of Komaru to Makoto through the computer. The video showed Komaru explaining to her brother her reasons for not leaving the city. She said she will be fine as long as she has Byakuya's hacking gun and Toko. She said that she and Toko will wait for them until Makoto and Byakuya finish off the Remnants of Despair. She then added that when she went to the torture room where Monaca's video showed her dead parents were, she found that there was no sign of her parents. She claimed that its possible that their parents were still alive somewhere, and she would cling to that belief.

After the credits, Komaru is chasing after Toko on a bright, sunny day in Towa City.

Makoto Naegi
Komaru and Makoto seem to have a good relationship, implied in Monokuma's motivational videos. In the video it showed Komaru and her parents cheering her brother on when he succeeds to enroll in Hope's Peak Academy. They also have a similarity as siblings as they both have the same ahoge. According to Komaru herself, the two watch TV together, as well as share thoughts on manga they share with each other. She's also mentioned that they did argue quite a bit which is rather common in siblings.

Toko Fukawa
Toko helps aid Komaru through The Tragedy. Komaru seems to see Toko in a good light as both of them are seen sharing beds together (though Toko looks very uncomfortable at Komaru's accidental invasion of space) and they help each other climb up taller items. She often shows Toko affection whenever she is thankful for Toko's help, much to Toko's annoyance. Throughout the game, she forms an unbreakable bond with Toko as the two work together and learn to rely on each other.

During an interview with the crew behind Danganronpa Another Episode, Kodaka states that the game is about "the deepening friendship between Komaru and Toko."

Hiroko Hagakure
Hiroko and Komaru appear to be friends to some extent, as Hiroko calls Komaru "Koko" ("Komaruchi" in the Japanese version). Hiroko calls Komaru by her first name meaning she is very playful with her.

Warriors of Hope
Throughout her whole Journey, Komaru will come across the Warriors of Hope. Komaru appears to distrust them, even fear them. Monaca calls her "Big Sis" though Komaru appears to be afraid of her the most. Komaru eventually sees them as the bad guys.

Although, after each execution she shows complete shock and is horrified by how the Warriors were treated and how they are executed. Also, Komaru seems to have a very slight friendship with Kotoko after she is saved. By the end of the game, Monaca is the only Warrior of Hope that Komaru would seem to definitely hate.

Yuta Asahina
Yuta and Komaru first meet on the Towa City Bridge. She appeared happy that Yuta survived, after the bridge is destroyed, and took great joy in watching Yuta swim, cheering him on. She was shocked when Yuta exploded and is shown to be traumatized slightly by this event.
