“	I believe my actions will become the foundation of this world's hope. And... if that really happens... Praise me. Tell others what I've accomplished. Erect a bronze statue of me. Respect me. Please call me... the Ultimate Hope.	„

Summary

Nagito Komaeda (狛枝 凪斗) is a member of Hope's Peak Academy's 77th class with the title "Ultimate Lucky Student", a title he shares with a student of the 78th class. Born with a tendency to experience incredible changes in fortune both good and bad, his condition led him to develop an unhealthy fixation with hope that alienated him from his peers.

Powers and Stats

Tier: 9-A, Unknown with his luck

Name: Nagito Komaeda, Ultimate Lucky Student

Origin: Danganronpa

Gender: Male

Age: 22

Classification: Human

Powers and Abilities: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Supernatural Luck (Can cause implausible events like entire landslides by kicking a pebble or bringing down a building by throwing a rubber ball at the support beams), Explosion Manipulation and Limited Poison Manipulation (Set many bombs on the Jabberwock Island, and could create a poisonous grenade, though this needs Preparation), Cyborgization (Partial, has a robotic arm after leaving Neo World Program replacing Junko's arm)

Attack Potency: Small Building level (Although he is somewhat sickly due to his lymphoma and frontotemporal dementia, he is reasonably strong for a boy of his age. Should be comparable to Makoto Naegi), Unknown with his luck

Speed: Superhuman speed and reactions (Is comparable to Yasuhiro Hagakure)

Lifting Strength: Above Average Human (Managed to hold up a large metal spear while mutilating himself and continued to do so after the fact for some time. Should be superior to Nagisa Shingetsu)

Striking Strength: Small Building level

Durability: Small Building level (Comparable to Kazuichi Souda and Teruteru Hanamura who both tanked explosions. Hard to kill due to his extreme luck. His extreme luck helped him survive after withstanding a gunshot through the chest from Izuru)

Stamina: Superhuman (Managed to hold up a large metal spear while bleeding out from multiple wounds for some time. For his suicide plan he has slashed his own legs multiple times with a knife, then stabbed his own hand with said knife, while still having a solid grip on a spear and without passing out from all of this. Barely reacted at his own legs being slashed. Comparable to Yasuhiro Hagakure)

Range: Standard Melee Range; possibly moreover by extreme luck

Standard Equipment: None notable

• Optional Equipment: Bombs, Monokuma's Special Poison, Pistol

Intelligence: Gifted (Nagito is one of the most intelligent characters of the second game. He is one of the best investigators in the group and he's also very skilled at planning as well as problem solving. He is also capable of utilizing and manipulating his luck to some extent despite the extreme complexity of his own talent)

Weaknesses: He has a weird obsession with hope. He had a warped perception of the relationship between hope and despair. This warped perception of hope and despair might have an effect on his luck and could potentially be the reason why whenever something extremely lucky happens to him, something extremely unlucky is bound to happen soon afterwards, though this warped perception and obsession of despair ends after Danganronpa 2, and he only obsesses about Hope now. He suffers from both lymphoma and frontotemporal dementia, but he has managed to outlive this with his good luck

Feats

Ultimate Luck:

• With his luck, he somehow won after being haunted by a Poverty God in a game.
• With his luck, he survived playing a Russian Roulette with five-in-six chance of dying or one-in-six chance of surviving.
• With his luck, he found a secret entrance under the founder's statue which is where Junko was hiding.
• His luck is somewhat comparable to Izuru's, a luck so high enough that it can jam a perfectly functional gun from a luckster.
• With his luck, he managed to survive being shot at and avoided fatal damage due to having his student handbook in his shirt pocket.
• Caused a landslide by kicking a pebble.
• Created and assisted a murder plan with massive preparations in an old building with the help of his luck and the idea of being the cleaner for a party.
• Managed to create a murder mystery plan that was almost impossible to solve with the use of his intellect and his extreme luck.
• Won a country-wide lottery where apparently only one student is selected at random to attend Hope's Peak Academy as the Ultimate Lucky Student.
• When Nagito and his family boarded an airplane from San Cristóbal Airport, the airplane was hijacked, and a meteorite the size of a closed fist fell at exactly the right time which struck the hijacker but also struck his parents at the same time, which got him freedom and inheritance.
• After being released when he has been kidnapped by a serial killer, Nagito had discovered a winning lottery ticket for three hundred million dollars in the garbage bag the murderer kidnapped him in.
• Managed to completely bring down an entire building by knocking out all of the restraining nuts and bolts simply by throwing a ball.
• With his luck, he can shoot someone with succession by aiming randomly.
• Survived a plane crash during his suspension, and he found a waterfall to bathe in just a few steps away from where the plane crashed, somehow managed to bring a "souvenir" (a handgun) with him despite on how strict the firearm law is in Japan, and that handgun was used later for an attempt of assassinating Junko.
• He was about to show the "souvenir" that he got from overseas to his classmates, then got interrupted by Hiyoko Saionji without her knowing that it was a handgun, which means Nagito avoided potential trouble for bringing a handgun inside the school.
• While in front of a vending machine that didn't give him a drink after he put his thousand yen because he only had a whole thousand yen in cash, a truck flew on top of the vending machine and crushed it, giving him a lot of "Dr. Hopper" cans
• When his classmates are having "fun" and caused a lot of damage and flying projectiles, he stood there doing nothing and the projectiles missed him
• Found a "brainwashed" Mikan Tsumiki while walking, though he didn't know she was brainwashed but only had a "hunch", finding Tsumiki led the whole class into finding out that Junko was manipulating everyone behind the scenes.
• His luck works even after his death and is capable of influencing someone's mentality in a way, as his plan to reveal the "traitor" was focusing on Chiaki Nanami (the "traitor") choosing one particular fire extinguishing grenade with poison to accidentally kill him (thus making her a culprit in the Class Trial). The entire plan was based on his sheer luck.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Causing a landslide simply by kicking a pebble

• Ultimate Lucky Student: Nagito is supernaturally lucky, which can work to his advantage and his detriment. For instance, he was able to survive a plane crash completely unscathed after it was hijacked by terrorists and struck by a meteorite, but the same crash killed his parents. After being kidnapped for his inheritance money, he then found a lottery ticket in the bag he was kidnapped in that won him three hundred million dollars. In combat, it can cause seemingly random and improbable events, like having a perfectly functional gun jam for no particular reason or collapsing a building simply by throwing a rubber ball at the support beams to knock out all of the bolts fastening them in place. It has also let him live well beyond what his malignant lymphoma and profrontal dementia would suggest and has saved his life on numerous occasions.
