Ryuto Ippongo

Ryuto Ippongo is one of the male students that attends Akademi High School.

Ryuto is the third student to be introduced as an Easter Egg.

Appearance
Ryuto Ippongo wears the default male school uniform, unless customized by the player.

He used to have thick, bushy eyebrows, longer hair, a spiky ponytail on the back of his head, and a black bandana. All of these were removed in the October 8th, 2015 Build.

In his former appearance, he had black spiky hair with flame-red tips. He had grey eyes and a red bandana around his head with three strands of hair that fell onto it.

As of the February 15th, 2016 Build, Ryuto has tall, dark red, spiky hair with sideburns and dark red eyes.

Personality
Among the personas currently implemented in the game, Ryuto is a Loner. He cannot participate in physical confrontations against murderers, unless they kill Pippi Osu.

He would rather play the video game Osu! than socialize with the other students.

Routine
At 7:05 AM, Ryuto enters the school grounds. He walks to his locker at 7:10 AM and changes from his outdoor shoes to his indoor shoes. At 7:15 AM, he walks to the computer lab and plays Osu!.

At 8:00 AM, Ryuto walks into Classroom 3-2 and sits at his desk. He starts his morning classes at 8:30 AM, and leaves to go to the computer lab at 1:00 PM.

Ryuto walks back to class again at 1:30 PM and finishes his afternoon classes at 3:30 PM. Afterwards, he heads to his locker and changes from his indoor shoes to his outdoor shoes, then he lingers there until 3:50 PM, then he heads to the computer lab and then stays there until the end of the day.



Pippi Osu

Ryuto has a crush on Pippi according to his student profile, but he doesn't know that she feels the same way about him.

Since he has a crush on her, if the player kills Pippi in front of him, he will attack the player with much more force than he's usually capable of. However, if she dies, he will not mourn her death.
