Super High School-Level Good Luck (Bad Luck?) (Super High School-Level Hope)
"Well, if I’m forced to give one redeeming trait, I guess I’d say I’m a little more optimistic than most people."
Voiced by: Megumi Ogata (Japanese), Bryce Papenbrook (English)
An utterly unremarkable Ordinary High School Student who was only selected to attend Hope's Peak Academy through a random lottery, giving him the title of "Super High School-Level Good Luck". Naegi cites his most notable features as being his less-than-stellar luck, and his optimism. He takes command during the investigations after becoming the prime suspect in the first murder due to Maizono's machinations. He ends up motivating the surviving students to unite against Monokuma, securing their freedom from the school and gaining the title of "Super High School-Level Hope".
Amateur Sleuth: As the main character in a mystery game, he tends to be the one pulling the students through the trials, with some help from Kirigiri whenever he gets stuck. Born Lucky: The reason he was accepted into Hope's Peak; he was randomly chosen from all the ordinary students in Japan. This is why he is considered to have "Super High School-Level Good Luck"... Born Unlucky: ...but he himself believes he has super-bad luck. Catch Phrase: "You've got that wrong!" whenever he points out a contradiction during trials. Clear My Name: After Maizono's body is found in his shower. Declaration Of Protection: He's been pining after Maizono for a long time, and swears to stay by her side throughout Monokuma's game. His declaration of protection turns out to be misplaced; Maizono didn't need his protection and in fact tried to frame him for murder. Defiant to the End: He stalwartly resists Enoshima's final attempt to browbeat him into falling into despair. She is annoyed to no end by this, and even admits that she absolutely hates him for his courage because it is "boring". Distressed
