31. Gonta Gokuhara
Appears in: Danganronpa V3
Ultimate Identity: Entomologist
Endearing Character Trait: He's a gentleman

"Oh no, not Gonta! How could you not like Gonta? He's such a natural force of goodness, someone inherently honorable! He's like a grown-up child who wants to help his friends!"

Yeah, those are exactly the reasons why I don't like Gonta. Sure, he's a nice dude. He's a great dude, in fact. I'd be bros with Gonta. We could go to school together all Encino Man style. Him being nice doesn't make him a good character though.

Gonta was raised by wolves and is now somehow the ultimate entomologist in the fictional world of Danganronpa. He is super strong and super dumb. How he became an entomologist without knowing how to speak in complete sentences, I don't know. To be honest, I thought the whole "I'm dumb" schtick got old by chapter 2. If this guy had ended up being one of the survivors, I probably would've ranked him lower out of sheer frustration.

Thankfully, all that stuff with Kokichi happened. Yes, Chapter 4 was sad and at the time it happens, you really don't want it to be Gonta. You want to be able to figure out that it actually was Kokichi and the whole "program that Kokichi will freeze" thing will be found to be false evidence. For these reasons, I feel like the feelings in Chapter 4 were more the result of anger at Kokichi and less feeling sad for Gonta.

Gonta has a couple other interesting scenes, like the "insect meet'n greet." Probably the thing I like the most about Gonta is the ironic sadness of the fan-service scene with Miu in Chapter 2, knowing now that he kills her later on.
