Chiba Airi !

Chiba Airi (千葉 愛梨) is a student participating in the Session One killing game of Tetro Danganronpa. Within the session, she is designated as Student Three, and she is given the Ultimate title of the Ultimate Child Star.

Within the killing game, Chiba is designated as the Ultimate Child Star. Her work within her talent consists mainly of acting on a popular sitcom, playing the role of a little girl living in a house with a large family. Her work seems to extend into other, smaller acting roles, such as in advertisements. She seems to carry the persona of being a little girl into her daily life, continuing to act bubbly and childish even off-set.

Before the killing game, Chiba was an extremely popular actress. She stars in the long-running Fukushima family sitcom, but she also stars in various other projects, such as television shows, movies and commercials. In her work, she is notoriously cast as a small child due to her small stature. She is described as an extremely high profile celebrity in her information card.

Her life as an actress is shown to be very strenuous, with a very busy schedule. In [Student Three], her director is shown to be quickly growing annoyed with her on set, and her mother pushes her to keep working even past the point of tiring. During the recording, she is made to drink something that her mother claims will "wake her up a bit", despite Chiba having no interest in drinking it.

Furthermore, her small stature is implied to be at least partly from constant malnutrition. During the year leading up to the killing game, she was hospitalised for malnutrition three times. She frequently suffers from exhaustion and light-headedness. She also smokes cigarettes, which have an appetite surpressing effect.

Chiba lives with both of her parents, and is an only child. Her mother, Suzuko, acts as her manager. She is shown to not do anything to defend Chiba against the harsher aspects of fame; when Chiba is harrassed in public, she simply lets it happen. Chiba has no real friends, due to not attending public school in favour of her career. But, she has a good relationship with her on-set family. She goes out for meals and attends parties with them on a semi-regular basis.

Chiba seemingly has a very cheerful and friendly personality, shown through her enthusiastic responses during her initial interview. She offers gratitude and affection to fans, calling Seki's compliments "sweet" during her interview. She is also shown to be somewhat childish and naive, speaking in a generally childish way, matching her talent as a child star. She is shown to have high levels of energy, speaking in a very upbeat way, and listing one of her hobbies as climbing. Due to her childlike nature, she is shown to be somewhat impulsive, frequently interruptinh Seki during questions and derailing the conversation. Despite this, in a professional setting, or when she is uncomfortable, she is shown to be much more subdued and reserved, like in [Student Three] when she becomes much more soft-spoken and reserved after being reprimanded on set.

Hama let Chiba ride on his shoulders, and after that point, they were shown to be good friends, eventually forming a trio with Harada Keizou, and being shown on screen together often, and implied to have spent more time together offscreen.

Harada Keizou: Chiba and Harada became friends after Chiba approached him, asking to play with Sawa. The two of them became good friends after, eventually forming a trio with Hama Ran, and were shown on screen together often, and implied to have spent more time together offscreen.
