The Ultimate Pop Sensation
Whatever translation you prefer, Sayaka Maizono is one of my favorite Danganronpa characters.




I didn't think much of her at first. I did think that she was really pretty, but I didn't grow to appreciate her until I finished the series and looked back at it all. Now she is truly my Meow Meow.

I also have a tendency to defend female characters that are demonized by the fanbase - especially one in which way worse male characters are venerated.

Music
Sayaka is an idol and has a very famous voice actress, so it's really cool that the creators went the extra mile and recorded some songs by her in character:
