Hiro Shimono

Hiro Shimono is one of thousands of teenagers who auditioned for Danganronpa 53: Killing Harmony. He was selected to play Kokichi Ouma.

Hiro Shimono lived with his parents, who were into some shady shit. like. Illegal shit. smuggling shit Hiro was raised right in front of it and right next to it, and ust kind of. didn't realize that was wrong. as a literal child who doesn't understand that all this shit isn't normal, which lead to abuse to keep him quiet. Hiro is two-faced inherently, but not in the traditional sense. at school, and in public, he is confident, acting like a weirdo discord moderator who wants people ot have fun but at home, he is a quiet and wordless doll with little personality and self. he is unsure if he has a personality that isn't constructed so, when he is alone in his room with his phone and some earbuds, he is allowed to escape within the realm of body discoveries and murderous teddy bears and hundreds of characters for him to steal personalities from so, he auditioned for Season 53, and had a nervous break during the audition itself, displaying his two-faced nature. Tsumugi loved thtis, and quickly based the character concept for Kokichi on this audition, and later selected him for the role Hiro's parents literrally did not care and were kind of glad they didn't have to deal with him, and promptly burned his birth records and pretended he never existed
