| ~ Haiji Towa supporting breaking the controller even if it meant all the children controlled by Monaca Towa were gonna die. |
| “ | Um, no. That's not what I was thinking at all. Especially not with you. I... uh... I like 'em younger, as young as possible. | „ |
| ~ Haiji Towa's most infamous quote. |
| “ | Get the f*ck out of here. I refuse to cooperate with you. | „ |
| ~ Haiji, rejecting Komaru and Toko's request to fight against the Warriors of Hope. |
Haiji Towa is the secondary antagonist of Danganronpa: Ultra Despair Girls. He's the leader of the Resistance against the Warriors of Hope, a group of children who were killing adults in Towa City for it to become a children's paradise.
Although seemingly heroic, his desire for revenge against the children and his bloodlust against them turned him into a full antagonistic role, while also heavily implying that he has pedophilic tendencies.
He was voiced by Shin-ichiro Miki in the Japanese version and was voiced by Matthew Mercer in the English dub (who also portrayed Silas Briarwood from The Legend of Vox Machina).
His Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Evil?[]
- He is one of the people responsible for Monaca becoming the monster that she is by abusing her physically and psychologically.
- His role as a protector of the adults is purely self-serving, as he's trying to cover up his involvement in Monaca's reign of terror as well as hide from the consequences. He blames her and Junko for his failings and is a knowingly cowardly and inept leader, trying to hide rather than protect.
- When stating that Komaru and Toko were too old for him, he said he prefers girls to be as young as possible and the art book for Ultra Despair Girls implies that he would be sexually attracted to Kotoko Utsugi (an elementary school aged girl who already suffered multiple sexual assaults and rapes) if it was not for her personality.
- He emotionally abuses Nagisa when he has a mental breakdown. Despite Nagisa's attack on him, Komaru, and Toko, it comes off as cruel and heartless, especially since Nagisa was not a threat at this point. He also jokes about Nagisa's "death" later on in the game.
- He tried to force Komaru to break the controller, not caring that destroying the controller would kill all the children who were not to blame for their crimes and would cause a war.
- He attacked Toko Fukawa for taking the controller away.
- While he has a tragedy that his family is killed by Warriors of Hope, this doesn't hold up as he is already a cruel person who constantly abuses Monaca before this happened, and his tragedy only gives him an excuse to vent his anger on children. Considering how he contributes Monaca to become a monster, he is the one brought the tragedy onto himself in the first place.
- He has no redeeming qualities.
What Prevents Him From Being Pure Evil?[]
- While he does stand out for his unique crime of pedophilia (even though the full extents of it fall under Fridge Horror), he ultimately fails the high heinous standard compared to his sister Monaca since his worst deeds were planned and shared with her.
