Kyosuke Munakata is a character in Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope’s Peak High, and his title is the former Ultimate Student Council President. Kyosuke is cold and authoritative, but also very charismatic, which is demonstrated in Juzo and Chisa Yukizome's loyalty to him, showing that he can be influential. He is described as looking very strict, which makes him a bit scary, but also serious in a way that makes him appear very reliable. In his past, he was a notably warmer person, smiling more often and having a kinder voice, though still having a somewhat serious personality. He was described as rational, reliable, and strong-willed. He was determined to lead Hope's Peak Academy to take the school in the correct direction, with Juzo and Chisa considering him the academy's true hope. However, after the Tragedy, his opinions turned radical, as he began to believe that the only way to defeat despair is to eliminate it at all costs, even if heavy sacrifices must be made. He held an incredible amount of anger towards Ultimate Despair and was in favor of killing them, believing that any glimpse of despair must be destroyed or else it would just create more despair. It is indicated that this way of thinking was influenced by Chisa, who was unbeknownst to him brainwashed to be a part of Ultimate Despair. As pointed out by Makoto Naegi, Kyosuke chose to only focus on despair without seeing hope and the good that was still left in the world, showing just how pessimistic and bitter he had become. Along with his opinions, Kyosuke's nature turned much colder as well, as he no longer spoke in a kind voice and didn't answer physical and emotional affection from his close ones. However, he still cared about Chisa and Juzo. He strongly disliked Makoto's naivety, believing that he does not know true despair and thus his words were just hollow platitudes, though he admitted that he respects Makoto's determination and ability to inspire others. He claims he believes in power instead of words and he believes words cannot be a weapon mightier than a blade. Kyosuke is decisive, overly logical, and reserved. He tried to distance himself from emotional reasoning as much as possible, to keep his emotions from getting in the way of his decisions. Though, supposedly due to both his intelligence and paranoia, Kyosuke tends to think that there is always something more complex behind other people's actions, and thus has a harder time realizing answers that are just simple or obvious. He was aware that he had to make the tough choices that few others are willing to make, and had resigned himself to the responsibility. Because of this, he seemed to view himself as very martyr-like, as he was willing to put himself into unfavorable opinions with others to get things done. Somewhat self-centeredly, he also believed that his own experiences were true despair, and belittled the survivors of the Killing School Life, since their situation at least had rules. He also tried to convince himself that instead of his actions and decisions, the despair itself was always at fault, and he was quick to assume that anyone disagreeing with his morals could be a Remnant of Despair. Even after realizing that Makoto was innocent, he was still willing to kill him because he believed that the traitor could use him for their own goals. Though originally rational and reliable, Kyosuke lost his restraint as a result of Chisa's death, which affected him heavily. He mostly refused to acknowledge it and focused on chasing after Makoto, but Kazuo told him accordingly that Chisa's death had driven him into madness, and accused Kyosuke of being confused, and both cynical and naive. Kazuo also told him that everyone is an attacker, turning him even more paranoid than usual, and causing him to even turn against Juzo. This turned even worse after he used Seiko's enhancing drug on himself, making him notably more aggressive, with even his eyesight shown to be more blurred. However, he eventually calmed down after talking with Makoto and realizing that his views had been wrong, and he properly grieved for Chisa as he fully accepted her death and the fact that he still loved her as the person she truly was and blamed himself for her corruption in the hands of the Ultimate Despair. He also grieved the death of Juzo, understanding that he was to blame, and he ultimately decided to be alone and carry this burden by himself. His atonement was also seen in the way he was willing to risk his life to help Makoto and his friends.

  • (Kyosuke's inner monolouge reacting to Chisa's body - sound confused and in shock, but also deep in thought.) "So, this is humanity's last hope? Even as we speak, the Remnants of Despair are causing more damage, and more people are falling victim. Is this time to squabble? Tell me, Yukizome... I am... ...not wrong, am I?"

  • (For this line, sound a bit prideful and determined.) "I am not like you. I believe in power. No matter how many I make into victims, even if it means my death, I shall destroy despair. That is my resolve! A world without despair... That is the future that she and I imagined. Your shallow hope cannot stop me, Makoto Naegi! I will wipe out the Despair, no matter who it is. Or what I must sacrifice. That is true hope!"

  • (Kyosuke's parting words with Naegi. Sound a bit exhausted and wiped out, but not breathy - sound like he's emotionally checked out as he decides to grieve the death of his friends on his own terms.) "You will be a hero now. The world will need a hero who fought and defeated the Remnants of Despair. Can you bear that burden? I'll have to bear my own .""
