Since it’s SA awareness month I’d like to talk
About Mikan Tsumiki from Danganronpa Goobye Dispair. Mikan Tsumiki from Danganronpa is genuinely horrible SA representation and I don’t think people talk about it enough.
As a male victim of SA, watching Mikan Tsumiki be reduced to constant fan service, clumsiness, and helplessness is just uncomfortable. Her entire character is basically built on being submissive, overly sexualized, and incompetent, and it pushes this weird narrative that survivors are just… broken, dependent, and incapable of functioning.
Like… this is rly the rep sa survivors have??
Instead of actually exploring trauma in a meaningful or respectful way, her SA is basically just a plot point to justify her behavior. There’s no depth, no care—just “look at how damaged she is” while the game constantly puts her in sexualized situations for shock or humor.
And it’s not even subtle. it’s hella fetishy and weird for her to [censored] during her corny ahh execution. That alone says everything about how the game treats her character.
It ends up sexualizing survivors instead of humanizing them, which is honestly harmful. It reinforces the idea that victims are supposed to be passive, overly emotional, and easy to take advantage of.
this is why it’s embarrassing to open up 
Because if this is how media portrays people like us, no one’s gonna take it seriously
