Fuhito Kirigiri (霧切 不比等) is a character featured in Danganronpa Kirigiri. He is one of the original founders of the Detective Library and a very well known detective.
He later returns in Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls as a Target for the Warriors of Hope's Demon Hunting.
Fuhito is the grandfather of Kyoko Kirigiri and the father of Jin Kirigiri. Fuhito is the closest person to Kyoko, which is why he became a Captive for Killing School Life's first motive. His "current location" during the Demon Hunting Game was said to be around the Towa Integrated Book Store.
Appearance[]
Fuhito is a kind-faced old man. He has wispy white hair, which points upwards, and pale brown eyes. He possesses a small, bushy white beard, and an equally bushy mustache. He wears glasses and has rather thick eyebrows. He dons a white dress shirt.
Personality[]
Fuhito is a man who takes detective work and family traditions very seriously, seemingly caring more about them than anything else, as the family's motto is that "detective work comes before anything else". He wishes to have an heir to continue his work. As Jin showed no interest and even some dislike to being a detective, Fuhito wants to make Kyoko his heir and raises her to be a true detective.
History[]
Prior to The Tragedy[]
Fuhito Kirigiri was one of the founding members of the "Detective Library" featured in Danganronpa Kirigiri. He was, apparently, the only co-founder of the association to object to its DSC ranking system, and was thus never registered in its archives. However, since all of the Detective Library's founders were master detectives, it could be assumed that, should he have been registered under the DSC ranking system, he would have held the highest possible ranking of 000.
Danganronpa Kirigiri[]
Fuhito is Kyoko's grandfather, as well as a master detective. He is very strict about family traditions and to him being a detective is more important than anything else.
Fuhito was on excellent terms with his granddaughter, educating her on the modus operandi of the Kirigiri detective clan. One particular component of the Kirigiri doctrine he mentions during the novel is that one who is under the Kirigiri family is first and foremost a detective.
During The Tragedy[]
Fuhito was captured by the Ultimate Despair and became a Captive for Monokuma's first motive in the Mutual Killing Game of Class 78. He was apparently enclosed in an apartment just like the other Captives.
He was later freed, only to become one of the people targeted by the Warriors of Hope in Towa City.
Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls[]
After becoming a Target, Fuhito hid near the Towa City Integrated Book Store, along with Fujiko Yamada.
After Komaru Naegi and Toko Fukawa showed Hiroko Hagakure his Hit List entry, she promised to send men to rescue Fuhito.

Kyoko Kirigiri[]
Kyoko is Fuhito's granddaughter. He taught her all she currently knows in the detective business, and he will protect her from anything he deems a threat. However, he raised Kyoko as his heir and told her she is a detective before anything else.
Nevertheless, Kyoko loves her grandfather dearly, which is confirmed by the fact that he became a Captive.
