She claims the most dangerous situation she ever found herself in was in a game of "The Liar King", in which she played against an unusual pair consisting of a “foolishly-honest girl” and a “master con artist”, referencing the manga/drama series Liar Game. Never My Fault: She cites her plan failing as due to Hifumi's ineptitude. Hifumi did make some screwups, such as deciding that the perfect disguise was a Transformers cosplay when Celestia only requested something that would disgiuse one's face and posture, and making it both impossible for the wearer to move in or off/put on themselves, but the whole overcomplicated plan was Celestia's in the first place, Hifumi followed it to the letter, and she's the one who slipped up verbally. The plan's failure was as much if not more due to Celestia's ineptitude. Escapist Character: In-Universe, the cool and unflappable persona of "Celestia Ludenberg, Queen of Liars" seems to be one for Taeko Yasuhiro, who sees herself as boring and ordinary. Jerkass: Less overt than Byakuya, but she acts uncaring around everyone, states it was Chihiro's own fault that he was killed and murders two people in cold blood for extremely selfish reasons. Her high-pitched scream wasn't lost on Byakuya, who deduced that it was more likely a signal to Hifumi that their plan was working.

Seamless Spontaneous Lie: A master at them, as seen outside the bathhouse in chapter 3 when the group discovered Alter Ego. Although Celeste makes it clear that the Greed part was actually her secondary goal, her primary goal is 'getting out of the place', and she had to use her pissed-off mode to hammer the point home. She also almost confesses that the Greed motivation Monokuma provided probably wouldn't even have worked on her if she could place her hope in Alter Ego like the others did, but she was unable to do so.Grand Bois Chéri was also Celestia's Captive and closer to her than anyone else. This implies that she didn't care for any people, including possible blood family. Know When to Fold 'Em: Unless not proven guilty and there may still be a chance, Celeste would resort to even freaking out to defend her case. But once her chips are down and there's no way out, she'll calmly admit defeat. Said she also lost a few times in the past to know when she loses. Condescending Compassion: Does this to Naegi when he starts arguing against her narrative of Hagakure killing Ishimaru and Hifumi, telling him that it's okay if he screws up because nobody expects much from him anyways.

Remnants of Despair: Nagito Komaeda | Izuru Kamukura | Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu | Mikan Tsumiki | Gundham Tanaka | Teruteru Hanamura | Peko Pekoyama I must say, that was incredibly boring. Do you always waste people's time like that. Positively sinful... Please try not to commit any further crimes."Hifumi: (turned away) Now, all you have to do to escape with me is kill someone, right... Celestia Ludenberg-dono? A-Cup Angst: Doesn't manifest in the game itself, but one yonkoma comic sees her suffer this at the hands of Hina (who has a large chest). In another anthology comic, Hifumi draws a doujin of her with noticeably larger assets, with Makoto raising an eyebrow to her assertion that it looks "just like her." It doesn't help that, according to the official measurements, only Toko is smaller in this regard. Odd Friendship: She bonds with Chiaki in Ultimate Summer Camp, over their shared love of competing in games. Danganronpa is a series of Japanese visual novels. The first game, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, was first released on November 25th, 2010 while the series’ latest game, Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony, was released on January 12th, 2017. These video games were developed and published by Spike Chunsoft and NIS America. The series can be played on a variety of platforms, including PlayStation 4, mobile devices, and Microsoft Windows. The first game, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, started the series by following an average student named Makoto Naegi that gets the chance to enroll at Hope’s Peak Academy, but finds himself trapped inside the school with fourteen other students and Monokuma, a remote-controlled bear who tells all of them that one of them can “graduate” if they can get away with murdering one of their classmates. In no time at all, a student is murdered and a trial is held. If the killer is caught, they will be executed on the spot. However, if they manage to get away with murder, they will be able to leave the school and the rest of their classmates with be executed. Links Beyond a surface level, it makes sense. She is the Ultimate Gambler, and to succeed in underground gambling, she has to be as ruthless and devoid of empathy as possible as it's a harsh environment. It's the reason why she attained such a title in the first place.

The white lace bonnet over her head is nicely detailed with many folds and there are hints of purple shading on the lace. The side hair strands and bonnet ribbons are fragile so do exercise caution meddling around those areas. In DISTRUST, her name was S. Rudenburg. It is unknown exactly what the S stands for, but it is likely Selestia or Serestia, following the romanization of "Ludenberg" to "Rudenberg". And yet, this one does appear to be broken. As is Leon's, sitting useless in the main hall. For all your confidence, that is a remarkably high failure rate." When Makoto Naegi introduced himself, he immediately questioned Celestia's name and identity. She reassured him that "Celestia" was indeed her real name. Makoto recalled reading a thread online that described her as a top gambler and an expert of deception, so he remained suspicious. Shortly thereafter, the students were forced to participate in the mutual killing game. The first motive to murder were DVDs with a video from Monokuma that implied their loved ones were in danger. Celestia's video showed her most beloved relative was her cat, Grand Bois Chéri Ludenberg.Pronoun Trouble: In the original Japanese version, she, like some of the more polite students, uses "-san" on girls and "-kun" on boys. While recounting the night of the murder during the second trial, she pauses for a moment to add "-kun" to Chihiro's name, since she'd just learned that Chihiro was male. She states that she played mahjong against a “crazy rich old man” and a “silver-haired boy”, referencing the manga series Akagi.

Hajime Hinata • Akane Owari • Byakuya Togami • Chiaki Nanami • Four Dark Devas of Destruction • Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu • Gundham Tanaka • Hiyoko Saionji • Ibuki Mioda • Junko Enoshima • Kazuichi Soda • Mahiru Koizumi • Mikan Tsumiki • Monobeasts • Nagito Komaeda • Natsumi Kuzuryu • Nekomaru Nidai • Peko Pekoyama • Sonia Nevermind • Sato • Teruteru Hanamura Another good indicator of this is in the second episode of the anime. After seeing Junko/Mukuro getting killed, she coolly suggests that the students start investigating Sayaka's death, and smiles in the middle of her 'Gendo Pose' while saying that they reaped what they sowed, which Aoi immediately calls her out on. Also, when seeing that scene, while others (except Byakuya and Kyoko) look horrified and Toko just passed out, Celeste just keeps her usual expression of 'put hands in front of mouth as if saying "Oh my."'Along with creating too many holes in her own cover, her frame-up of Yasuhiro completely falls apart because the suit she got Hifumi to create to trap him in was not actually mobile, effectively giving Yasuhiro an alibi for why he couldn't be the murderer. I Hate Past Me: To an extreme degree, with the manga showing it to be her primary motivation for adopting the Celestia Ludenburg persona and for wanting to become a renowned gambler and eventual castle-owning multi-millionaire. Everything about Taeko Yasuhiro is plain and powerless and even her ultimate talent is a passive one, so Celestia was created as a means of escapism from all that. The Hedonist: She claims she plans to live out the rest of her days in luxury and decadence surrounded by handsome servants. Celestia is shown to be relatively materialistic, with her life's dream being living a life of luxury and decadence in a European castle. Monokuma's third motive appealed to Celestia and caused her to put a murder plot into motion. She was also the only person unable to view Alter Ego as a person or friend, which ultimately contributed to her decision of seeking escape through graduation.
