Am I...the only one who changed his opinion on Tengan?
I thought he was badass old man, but after "How does it feel, knowing that your beloved Yukizome was tainted by despair?" it sounds more like he was mocking Munakata.
That's what I get in hindsight too of other things he said.
"You think you can eliminate despair by starting a war, but that's naive!"
"Is that why you sacrificed Yukizome?"
And after Despair revealed that Junko and Mukuro seem to have been let into HPA due to the board with Jin and Koichi being powerless to turn them down.....
Tengan got super suspicious.
Calling in.
Junko = Big Bad of Danganronpa.
Tengan = Greater Scope Villain.
Ever heard of those terms?
Quote:
While the Big Bad is directly responsible for the current story — the Big Bad is the villain or situation that the protagonists are attempting to defeat or overcome — a Greater Scope Villain isn't a major force in the plot. They are just responsible for anything evil or fueling at least a part of the fictional setting (how much of it depends on the scale of the Greater Scope Villain's influence) in which the story takes place. A Greater Scope Villain may be the Big Bad's superior, but just as often they're completely unrelated — indeed, a Greater Scope Villain may threaten the Big Bad just as much as they threaten the protagonists. Whatever the relationship between the Big Bad and Greater Scope Villain, the Greater Scope Villain is always Out of Focus — the threat they pose is general and in the background, while the threat posed by the Big Bad is specific and immediate.
This is not a subtrope of Big Bad. A Greater Scope Villain is a more threatening force of evil in the setting and overshadows it, but due to various factors, it is disconnected on a personal level from the main plot, which is caused by the Big Bad.

This fits with, I think it was in UDG, where you can pick up information how the "True Ultimate Despair" resides at the top of the Future Foundation and are accused to be the true puppeteers behind everything that occured.
