I decided to try it and this is what I got
Spoiler: Top 10
Somewhat accurate. I think I like Monomi more than Monokuma but overall the content of the Top 10 is fine, I guess. Everybody else I'm kind of indifferent about but this is the bottom
Spoiler: Worst
Komaeda should probably be somewhere on there but I didn't mind his personality that much when he acted normal post-Chapter 1 so....yeah
I also want to say that something that bothered me about Hiyoko was that she kind of feels a little lazily written as a character. It was so clear that the writers just wanted a little girl character but they couldn't have that since the game was about high schoolers. They could've had a girl who skipped grades or a girl who's had to grow up with looking like a little girl but acts like a high schooler cause she is mature...but instead the writers just said, "Fuck it, she's a little girl."

Yes. I am in love with Akane Owari.................. 's breasts.
Also like her appearance, it reminds me a bit of Shihna from Symphonia.
But as I said, for me, the only characters who are worth a damn for me are Togami, Fukawa/Genocider and Akane. Chihiro maybe at 4th place... the rest can go die. Especially Hagakure.

He's not that complex as a character (he's not complex at all actually) but I love his design and in contrast to his talent, it's hilarious. He also has a great name. It sounds like the name of an anime. Plus his voice is just so hammy and over the top. He's pretty great. "THIS IS THE TANAKA EMPIRE!"

Well I never played DR2 in English, so I don't know their English voices.
And it's not "like" an anime, he literally his named after the Gundam series - only the localized version to an H in there to avoid copyright issues.
And the DR troupes just have the issue with me that I have with lots of characters - they are too exaggerated in terms of appearance. It's telling that my favorites are Togami, Fukawa and Akane, three of the more "normal" designed characters. (Genocier's tongue not counting)

Actually, I was playing with the Japanese audio, so his English VA had little to do with it. It was mainly the over-the-top hamminess, reminiscent of Hououin Kyouma (only more occult, less mad scientist), that won me over.
And while he may not be that complex of a character, there's at least one line of dialogue that implies he might understand more about the situation than one might think.

You should probably listen to some of his English VA (maybe free time events?)
Spoiler: Chapter 4
I actually don't think I'd like Gundham or Sonia nearly as much if it weren't for there English VA's. I don't know if that says more about me or the characters
Also, I don't know why, but Kazuichi was way more likeable than Hagakure even though they're VERY similar characters

This teaser really tells us nothing, except maybe we'll see Hope's Peak before the disaster and the game will be coming to the PS4 as well as the Vita (no date). Also, the trials are back.
No new characters are revealed at all right now; it appears that they are saving that for later so, instead, the trailer has various Monokuma variations replacing the characters. So I wouldn't say that Monomi, Shirokuma, or the cigar one are necessarily back, nor that DR3 is about Monokumas on trial.

Looks like there's a new game mechanic already announced too, "Discussion Slam". Hard to tell what it is, other than a new way to raise the tension during the trial (come to a conclusion within X minutes otherwise you fall down?).
Some people seem to think that fuzzy image is of Junko. But honestly, I hope that isn't true. In my opinion, she's already overused. Someone else would be more interesting to me.
Spoiler: DR1 and 2 major spoilers
(btw, I haven't gotten through Ultra Despair Girls yet; early in chapter 2 so far. I'll give some impressions about that later)

If it is, I hope they can finally give me a decent answer on why a school shooting caused the entire world to succumb to despair. (Oh, it likely isn't the school? Ah...)

The problem with Junko isn't that she's overused... it's the fact that she was bland, annoying and kinda boring to begin with, so using her again was a bad idea.

Spoiler: Problem With Junko
The problem with Junko is the same as with having Ganondorf as your villain in every Zelda game. It got boring because Ganondorf had no personality or background left to discover. And no, Wind Waker did a terrible attempt at giving him a sympathetic one and Skyward had a stupid reason that I don't count. Bla bla, curse, bla bla, reincarnation.

Well, that, and the cosplayers are usually hot, but I don't think that counts.
I was thinking about how much of her motivations / methodologies were revealed in IF/Zero, but it's not fair to say read those. You can't point to supplementary material, even if it does give answers, because it's the game's job to answer those questions in the first place.

That was the imitating. Cutesy-Pigtails was Asahina, Shroom-Growing was Fukawa, Large Tongue was Genocider (how could you not get this one?) and the Crown-On-Head was Togami.

Or, if you honestly could not find a way to force it into the game, put the material in WITH the game, so that I open the box and see "Oh, a mini-novel?

Why can't people realize that making a kid a villain doesn't automatically make them scarier!?Ciel is more a villanous protagonist, he definitely does do things (or tells Sebastian to do things) that are considered bad, but there it IS kind of scary. Cause you are told about the torture he went through and why he's pretty fucked up. And considering it takes place in Victorian England, with the idea that such things actually WERE somewhat occuring at the time, just makes it realistically creepy.
And, as pointed out, I have no realistic or ANY reason why Junko is the way she is, so I can't find her creepy.

Does that still count as a spoiler?The problem I see with making a child the main villain is that, well, it's a freaking kid. How did they even achieve what they did throughout without someone older than them putting them in their place? If the answer is they outsmarted them, they usually don't display that level of intelligence during the main story. If the answer is they had others do their bidding, those others usually don't have properly justified reasons to do so. And if the answer is they're some genetically enhanced to gain enormous strength, the narrative usually doesn't focus on that and instead focuses on demonizing the government. So what's DR:AE's excuse? How do they justify a kid being the main villain?

Probably. But I figured if I said "I've only seen a child villain done well once. FMAB SPOILERS", then it would be the same thing. It's old enough, I guess
Even though Pride isn't technically human, if he was, he'd still probably be the best child villain I've seen because he does fit the criteria you listed. He's NOT the main villain. He still generally submits to Wrath and Kimblee, and he has a personality beyond being evil and...prideful

A little girl is so despair-ful that she can convince people to kill themselves, start wars, lead her parents' industry to manufacture killing machines, etc. You get the idea. It's stupid even for Danganronpa
But oooooh, curses! She's so much smarter than she lets on! Damn, isn't she smart and manipulative! Isn't she smart, manipulative, and scary?!?! Do you see the swastikas in her eyes?!?! Isn't it scary? Isn't it evil?!?!?!?!?! *shoves Monaca down sumguy's throat* ISN'T SHE?!?!?!?! ISN'T SHE?!?!?!?!
Well actually she was the one who built the Monokuma's since she was in charge of that section of the industry. Also put your stuff on spoilers since the game came out recently after all.
Also I doubt the intention was for her eyes to me swastikas. Your biased judgement is leading you to believe that. I thought it was more like a circuit board or something of that extent.
