Though the assassination aspect is likely another really bad lie, we should note the drastic difference between Rank D to Rank F. Most people she meets bore her, so she places them in Rank D, and those that she truly despises she classifies as Rank F and “hires an assassin to eliminate them”.

Generally, she describes it as ranging from Rank A through F. Speaking of rejection, I also want to discuss Celes’s ranking system a bit further. Right before her execution, the manga shows Celes flashing back to her childhood, where she was ignored and rejected by her classmates because she was ordinary.īecause of her lack of attention during her childhood, Taeko never learns to form deep relationships with others, and thus, her closest confidant was her cat. Not only did Celes face neglect in her childhood, but she was also bullied and isolated for being “too normal”, according to the (non-canon) manga. Similarly, her mother was likely a musical performer.īoth of these occupations require constant traveling, so it’s possible that she constantly left alone in her home in Tochigi. Nurture and care are important parts to a child’s well-being, and since her parents weren’t around to take care of her often, Taeko develops an inferiority complex from the lack of care she receives in her childhood and covers it up with her Celestia Ludenberg persona. Celes’s use of the example of “diplomatic relations between two countries” to explain the term “prisoner’s dilemma” supports the theory that her father could’ve been a foreign emissary. She could be hinting at the fact that her father was a government official, maybe even a foreign emissary. Unfortunately, we have little context for why this may be.Ī possible explanation for why she hasn’t learned to bond with others stems from Celes’s claim that her parents were “a French aristocrat and a German musician.” Though this is blatantly phased as a poorly-disguised lie, Celes has a habit of mixing in half-truths within her lies. However, what people usually do not consider is the possibility that it may be the other way around - Celes was neglected by others in her past, possibly even facing rejection on multiple occasions, and thus, she never bothered to develop strong emotional attachments to other humans. Most people interpret these facts as evidence that Celes is a cold, heartless bitch who hates everyone. However, we should take note of several facts: the fact that Celes’s Demon Hunting captive was her cat, and the fact that no one has been classified above Rank B in her relationship ranking system. Thus, what we know about her backstory is mostly speculation and guesswork. Most of what we know from her comes from her FTEs, and she barely revealed anything there other than small tidbits of trivia. Unfortunately, Celes has one of the most mysterious pasts of the character in the Danganronpa universe.

Unfortunately, most people see this outer layer of Celes and don’t bother looking further into her character, leading to a generally controversial and negative consensus on her character.īut from what we can piece together from her Free Time Events and trial breakdown, Taeko Yasuhiro is really nothing more than an insecure but normal girl who enjoys gyoza and royal milk tea. The tragedy is, this IS Celestia Ludenberg - or at least the fake facade that Taeko Yasuhiro puts on. Her trial, often denounced as the easiest to solve and worst written among the community, gives us a final impression that Celes is nothing more than a delusional, psychotic lunatic. Most people see her as the haughty, spiteful hypocrite and liar that murdered two people without any ounce of remorse for her selfishness and greed. Despite the fact that she performed the only premeditated murderer in the game, her murder plan is elaborate, unwieldy, and poorly executed, easily exposing her as the murderer.
