I tried to rank every sprite and I gave up halfway through.

I just finished playing the original games.
Here is my tierlist.
Hope you enjoy.
Sorry if I'm bad at explaining, but here goes:

1-Kyoko Kirigiri

I recently read her light novel, Danganronpa: Kirigiri, and I enjoyed it a tremendous amount, I especially liked the protagonist, Yui Samidare.

2-Ibuki Mioda

I have a friend like her, so I adore her energy and personality, not to mention her absolutely great character design.

3-Chiaki Nanami

I like to sleep.

Jk I relate to her a lot. I have social anxiety and I do enjoy gaming, as for her personality responding to all the people who say she's "Boring" and a "Mary Sue" just remember she's >!literally an Ai come on.!<

4-Kaede Akamatsu

I love her optimism and hard work; I wish she didn't have to >!die.!<

5-Chihiro Fujisaki

Without him, we wouldn't have >!Goodbye Despair, Ai Chiaki, or Alter Ego.!< He wouldn't have saved Makoto; he carries easily and he's the cutest.

6-Sonia Nevermind

I like Sonia personally as she's very intelligent but kind and compassionate, especially in cases like >!Chiaki's trial where she stood up for her and tried to shift the blame on her,I thought that was very sweet and selfless.!<

7-Maki Harukawa

I loved the way her character was developed.

Anyway cant be bothered to write the rest please ask me anything in the comments okay bye

Sorry if this rant will be a bit long but I've wanted to say this for ages

The way the Danganronpa fandom treats Leon vs. Sayaka shows the amount of double standards and misogyny the fandom has. (I like both, but just hear me out.)
Only one of these two is a murderer; guess who gets more hate.
I've seen many people who love Leon, whether it's his character or his design or his personality or whatnot, and honestly, I'm cool with him! I wish we got to see more of him, or if another person got killed and he wasn't the blackened, that would've been interesting.

However, when it comes to Sayaka, I've seen people call her a snake and hate on her so much without really understanding her character. In my opinion, she was the most realistic for a teenager trapped in a killing game—from what I understand, she was neglected as a child, so she spent most of her time watching TV, where she saw idols for the first time and decided she wanted to make people like her happy too. When she became an idol, she got the attention she never got from her home life. (If you didn't know, her mother died when she was very young and her father worked long hours, leaving her mostly at home.)

She finds herself most comfortable performing, but she knows that not every star shines forever, and so the reason she joined Hope's Peak Academy is because it was said to guarantee success for anyone who graduates. So imagine how scared she was when they were all told they'd be trapped in the school unless they killed each other.
Not only that,but because her talent wasn't really useful in a killing game she didn't really stick out much.
In my opinion, she acted pretty realistically compared to the other characters. She acted like an actual teenager.
Sayaka's character is so incredibly misunderstood—yes, I can't change the fact that she planned to frame Makoto, but it was likely she didn't know about the class trials. Not only that, but she killed for her friends and not for herself. Monokuma made her believe her friends were in danger and the band she worked so hard to be in would have collapsed.
(Bonus: When Sayaka says she had to make many "unpleasant sacrifices" to become an idol, she might've had to sell her body.)
She then asked to swap rooms with Makoto with the intention to frame him, swapped the nameplates on the door, and asked Leon to come to her (His? Makoto's) room so she could kill him; however, she hesitated, and that's when Leon fought back.
In the manga, it shows Leon accidentally stabbing Sayaka and trying to save her, but in the game Leon's intentions are clear (e.g., the doorknob).
In her last moments,she wrote Leon's name on the wall with her dying breath,and used her body to cover it,as Leon left so he could burn the evidence.

Summary?
So,all in all,Sayaka's character is really misunderstood and the fandom over hated imo so thanks for reading.

TL;DR read the full thing lazy shit
