Top Ten Villains round 2. #1 The Ultimate Villain.
Yeah I know I'm being vague but work with me here.
Another end of the list and another big bad that I think takes the cake and before I reveal it I want to point something out. This one....This villain is something That I never wavered on being number one and I have no issue that between both lists and even among villains yet to come this hateful yet adorable contender is gonna be hard to take down. The comedic humor of Dr Nefarious. The Recklessness of The God of Revels Xenagos. The Ruthlessness of Medusa. The Arrogance of Handsome Jack. The Sheer intimidation and lack of humanity of Lucifer. The Size of Thanos. The Impact Of Ultron. The Insanity of The Master and The Cold methods of Scarecrow.
Who else But the True Ultimate Villain.
The Ultimate Despair.

TITANIC SPOILERS FOR THE WHOLE FRANCHISE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
WHO the hell else was I going to put here? Johan Liebert? Well I'll get to him later. I mean really If you've played Any of the Danganronpa games you know as well as I do how massive this villain is. I mean his design is meant to be a mockery of mascot's like teddie but it does have the same iconic effect. It's simple and memorable. It is literally an icon.

I mean his design is meant to be a mockery of mascot's like teddie but it does have the same iconic effect. It's simple and memorable. It is literally an icon.
Let me set the story for you.
A group of teenagers going to a school for the best at what they are. Wake up years later with their memories erased of what happened since they got here and the only thing they know is that they are barricaded into the school and a deranged mechanical teddy bear has forced them into a game. If they want out of the school then they have no choice but to murder someone and not be found guilty in the investigation. Throughout all of this he's keeping them fed and making sure they're not in danger of being hurt by anything except each other.
This of course includes things like throwing different motives at everyone to make them want to get out. Including showing them special videos more or less saying their loved ones are in severe danger, to making it seem like there's a traitor among them to literally just offering them a bribe to kill someone. The whole time though he's been broadcasting them killing each other to the world to prove that even the best of the best are mindless killers when pushed. So why aren't the police coming to rescue them? Well...
Well He kinda caused the apocalypse through a massive cult of despair, and I mean who wouldn't follow this guy? He's hilarious. Voiced by Brian Beacock (Takato from digimon tamers. Sorry for your loss of childhood) He brings an immense joy to the role and honestly it's like watching Mark Hamill perform the joker. It's one of the most joyful villain performances ever and it's a massive MASSIVE part of why he's this high on the list. It's an insane amount of fun to watch and you can tell he had a blast doing it. That being said there is another part to this.
For the record I already said massive spoilers so...you've been warned.
It's revealed that the Junko Enoshima from the beginning of the game that died was in fact Mukuro Ikusaba. Her twin sister who she killed effectively to take the pressure off of herself and so she could control monokuma without having to worry about anything else and knowing her for shits and giggles. Junko Enoshima is the woman who started the apocalypse and the despair uprising first at hope's peak and then across most of the world literally causing chaos and death and yes despair across the world. Well except for one place but I'll get to towa island.
She Is known as both the ultimate despair and the ultimate fashionista. This is something they don't bring up but I think that has more to do with this then some think. They never explain her motives other then she's bat squeak insane, but I think the fashionista thing has something to do with all of this. Her fame, the people who look up to her (again more on that in a minute) and her charisma is what allowed her to manipulate people into joining her cult and what caused the beginning of the disaster. Her charisma and manipulation is one thing but she's got one thing very unique to her.
SHE'S FUCKING INSANE!!
What I'm about to say is in the actual and original definition of literal. She gets bored of her personality. Dead serious she actually gets bored of how she acts to the point where she rapidly and constantly switches between very odd and distinct attitudes. One second she's a queen and acts very uppity. The next a Rockstar and swears every three seconds. The next She's hyper depressed sounding. The next A super adorable one. The thing that sticks? Her desire to spread despair and cause pain and misery. For obvious reasons she's very similar to monokuma in that she is Insanely fun to watch. Just wondering what personality is gonna come out next and what exactly is gonna come out of her mouth. Here's the kicker when she's found out and she's lost she doesn't try to cheat or freak out that's she's lost. She's starts drooling with giddiness and with the exact look on her face you see above she hits the execution button and....again take it away youtube.
That it not a sane nor good woman. Even in death and absolute failure she was delighted. Because she caused herself despair. Any little bit of misery added to the world even to herself is such joy to her. That is pure evil.
Well ladies and gen......Wait. Didn't I say something about towa city and people following her?
Also #1 Monaca Towa
JESUS CHRIST What the hell is that!? O.O
That ladies and gentlemen is what happens after Junk dies and someone takes up the mantle of ultimate despair. For a character introduced in a side game not even Dangan ronpa 2 (which did feature more added to the story, a cyber junko and in my opinion a generally better experience if you played the first game) She is basically a continuation of Junko but again I'll start at the start.
She was born into the towa family. How rich and powerful are they. They have an island named after them. That rich and powerful. Anyway the father of the family cheated on his wife and as a result Monaca was born. Her real mother abandoned her and her father and brother took her in. They never really saw her as a person though. I Suspect The mother of the family left after the cheating incident and they took that anger out on monaca. Despite her smiling and joking she was miserable. She honestly felt like dying and this is why I understand monaca a bit more then junko and why I had to at least tie her with junko.
After being physically beaten by her brother and father (Despair girls the dangan ronpa side game is FUCKING DARK!) She faked it being worse then it was and went around in a wheelchair pretending to be paralyzed and enjoyed the new attention and pity she was getting. That's when she met the others.

She met four kids at hope's peak elementary and basically well.....convinced them that herself and the other four should jump off the roof and kill themselves. she herself wouldn't but she wanted to prank them into killing themselves. Like I said. DARK. Anyway they are saved when of all people Junko saves them and basically raises them herself and convinces them to kill their own parents and join her. Monaca Knows she's being used but doesn't care as she now a major part of towa corp and manages to mass produce monokumas and weapons for the disaster while blackmailing the actual head of towa saying she'd expose to the world that while towa island was generally unaffected they were fueling the disaster the whole time alongside junko.
ARE YA STILL WITH ME!! Also my god I'm using caps lock a fuck ton on this one anyways.
After junko's death the "Warriors of hope" wanted revenge so they kidnapped Makoto's sister (Read main character of first game.....'s sister) and put her into their hunt. You see Monaca not only didn't care about revenge against adults, Revenge against Those who killed junko or even Just wanting to build a children's paradise like junko had told the kids and like the others believed. She wanted to become Junko Enoshima the second. To become her successor. To Take her place.
In this time and facing against both makoto's sister and toko fukawa from the first game her associates started dying off but with no witnesses sans the two aforementioned girls Monaca's allies didn't know it was the Monokumas taking them out not Komaru and toko. And of course only one person has control over the monokumas. Monaca. I'm guessing to prevent them from turning on her after defeat she figured "fuck 'em" and tried to kill them as they fell in combat. granted it is confirmed that they all survive til the end but still dick move. Dicker move still being how she manipulated some of them if they didn't listen. After the first two fell the third Kotoko had some doubts to which monaka responded by saying her trigger word causing her to go into a panic fit and BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF HER! When you're watching a girl with severe mental trauma getiing her ass kicked by a girl in a wheelchair you think two things. First What the hell is the problem of the one doing the beating? And second What issues were the writers trying to get out of their system?!
But that's not even it. Secondly she tried to seduce the 4th kid and by god it worked. I won't even get into that bag of confused and angry cats but that's not even the grand plan with her. Her idea as it was from the beginning was use the monokuma robots and children with Monokuma helmets who she convinced to join in the children's revolt. Her idea Was to cause all the children to kill their parents and have the remaining adults either kill the children or if they fail hell child army. What makes this even worse is that the Monokuma helmets on the kids are controlling them against their will. Strictly for the purpose of having the adults kill innocent children. And as the extra kick in the junk the controller that makes the robot assault monokuma's that have been attacking the citizens when broken will explode the helmets. Surprise she kept that to herself. And then when Komaru had the controller and wasn't going to break it. She showed her her dead parents and if it wasn't for toko The population of towa city would have shrunk drastically.
And let it be said this wasn't just to kill a bunch of kids for lolz. This was to start a war. She wanted to start a war between the one place unaffected by the disaster and the future foundation (aka the good guys) Let me be very clear on what I'm saying here with shitty ms paint.
First yes that took like five minutes and yes this is why I don't edit much. Second YES I WENT THERE!
Here's the thing I do agree the johan is a great villain but his main issue really is the fact that for all the massive evil manipulative things he does he does a lot of jack in that series too. He's kind of like kefka. Awesome while he's there but not there enough. As for Monaca she has a few cutscenes in each chapter of the game. Dangan ronpa has it's issues but the villains are not it. Monaca and Junko are both Incredible villains and both as well as Monokuma deserve positions At the top. And with Dangan Ronpa 3 on the way, Junko being an AI inside two robotic bears and Monaca possibly becoming the new main villain. Why Do I say this?
That's ominous.
