I hope its not a "I faked my death" thing again, since that echo's Junko way to much (Then again, everything post DR1 is basically "Junko planned it all along",or people obsessed with her)
But if it is, it will probably be Chisa.

If it ends up being Chisa it will be a bit weird considering they "spoiled" it themselves with Despair 1.

What I find weird about Chisa death is that she was clearly awake (and cried) when she was killed when she was supposed to be asleep.
Its not a 100% rule, I mean
Hiyoko
IMO the 100% rule in Danganronpa is an idiot will survive. Hiro IMO is the only guaranteed survivor in DR3.
She could have also...i don't know...bake stuff that wouldn't kill her friend?
It doesn't seem like she ever even attempted to do anything else for her than her usual stuff.
Oh I'm convinced she doesn't believe it'll kill her.
You know, because she's a selfish bitch.
GOD I HOPE.

Just want to save this for posterity
Great Gozu is the killer, Koichi is the mastermind
And holy shit Koichi absolutely DOES have Mukuro's eyes. I'm entirely convinced that he is their father.

There is still the Ultimate Animator who looks up to Naegi.

I mean she's wrong from her perspective too. Seiko straight up told her she would die if she ate sweets. Like what more do you want?

I wonder how Munakata got Seiko's drug.
And she would have gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for those meddling teens and their mangy bear!
oh that's what happened. Now I'm even more confused.

lmao I just realized she doesn't say she can't have sweets, only that she can't have sugar
why not make some sugar free sweets god damn

If the writer had noticed that they would've made Ruruka spout some bs about how she's some sugar-filled sweets purist, somehow making it even dumber than just ignoring it.

Sometimes it's fun to hide things in plain sight.
There are a lot of things "off" about that first death. Although I'm even more perplexed by Kyoko's observation of the missing gouges in the wall now that it seems clear they're still in the same building and haven't been moved while Hiro is having fun dodging artillery outside (as that latest attack toppled the bookshelf revealing the hidden entrance to Izayoi).
The only other explanation I can think of that's plausible is that there's a similar secret compartment in the conference wall of the revolving wall/door variety and the non-gouged side of the wall wound up facing the conference room during the first gassing window when Chisa was killed.
We're supposed to assume he killed her and stole it off her corpse.
What's more likely is that he always had it and she gave it to him because she clearly trusted him for coming to her aid and giving her a home post-expulsion from Hope's Peak.
If it's the same building and there's no time skip...which now seems to be the case due to the Yasuhiro/bookcase scene...what the fuck happened to the building? How did it suddenly turn from a high tech and well maintained series of rooms in peak condition into a serious state of disrepair? Where did the monokuma monitors come from? Where did the marks in the wall in the conference room disappear to, and why was Kyoko shown to notice?
Something really fucking weird is happening here.

A time skip is possible. We don't know how long they were initially knocked out for. The only thing we do know is that Hagakure and the helicopter is outside the building the game is being played in.
But...a time skip to the extent that it takes to completely change the interiors of the building?
Hagakure would have left weeks before and gone to get a new crystal ball/smoke weed

The one alternate explanation would be that there's just editing chicanery going on and while it was inferred to us that the helicopter attack prompted the building to shake and knock the bookshelf over when it's a completely unrelated explosion or event that prompted said shaking and Hiro really is outside of a different building than where the game is being played or there was a time skip.
Of course, that would be really cheap.
I can buy the damage to the building interior being committed during the initial gas attack. The absence of damage on the wall was the real puzzle but I can explain that away with a revolving wall secret compartment. And we now know this building has secret rooms.

Tengan and Munakata's sticky situation reminds me of this painting from Resident Evil
It may well be something we're not supposed to think about. Remember, UDG introduced mecha into this world. Give them an hour and they could probably raze the tower and build a new one in its place.
It's probably more likely however that the monitors were always there and just hidden. Remember that Tenga is in on it to some degree, this could have been planned months in advance.
I'm still of the opinion that Yasuhiro is purely a fake out for viewers.

I wonder if Chisa was corrupted like the rest of her class by Junko.
Maybe Tengan accused her of being part of the plot and that made Munakata angry; he ignored Tengan's bracelet because he can't accept Chisa being a traitor.

So here's a quick drive-by question as I try to avoid the spoilers all around me--
If I was going to binge these two shows once they're done airing, is there some insane yet gratifying reason to purposeful alternate watching future and despair episodes, instead of just watching all of one then the other?
That seems like something crazy and bizarre he would do.

It's important we all become fans of rurukka so her death will occur faster.
Hiyoko totally got murdered in DR2 though.

pm'd in case you bailed from the thread
yes you watch future, then despair and keep alternating.
kind of a fluke since fuyuhiko was supposed to die instead of hiyoko and she was on the cusp of getting her character development

Member
there are characters in future that end up getting more development in despair which feed back into the next future episode for the payoff. The current episode for instance finished/continued a storyline that had the groundwork laid for it in despair
so yes you're supposed to watch them alternating.

Seiko dying... I'm sad, but I'm not that shocked. It seemed rather obvious after that despair episode that she was going to be the next out. I liked her a lot, but I had time to brace myself.
I didn't think Tengan could top his badassery from last week and then he went and did it. Damn that's one impressive old man.
Sonosuke going and finding Monaca would be somewhat hilarious to me. I guess it would give him time to operate and do something other than be Ruruka's lapdog.
Assuming they have her meet up with her lapdog again, I have a feeling these issues will bubble to the surface again.
If she was that psychotic that she absolutely needed Seiko to eat her candy even though it would've killed her, it'll be interesting to she how she copes with Sonosuke's NG Code.
As far as the disrepair goes, we had 3-4 helicopters firing missiles at the building. Even the Ultimate Architect would have trouble building something that wouldn't look screwed to hell after that.
If things are in the same building, we could've waited a few hours for them to set things up. If they had the Monokuma kids rush, I guess it's possible. Still, there is that tease with the wall.

That's not quite the same. This is foreshadowing, Chisa seeing herself dying in a monitor is a bit more than that.Sometimes it's fun to hide things in plain sight.

Its really quite something, I've never seen storytelling done this way but it works really well, especially when you see a character in the prequel and you know what happens to them in future and vice versa.

I need proof, but I suppose it checks out with the intent of making the Future Foundation a fool of themselves,
as a moving target would be useless to identify and make the killings (aside from those made by the traitors) look like insecure children trying to protect themselves instead of the leaders of the organization in charge of restoring the world
Alas, this still rings true.
If my read of DR0 is correct, despair was considered a talent too.
If the killer alternated, what exactly is forcing the killer to kill someone else? The implication that they will be killed if they don't murder anyone else during the night phase? But the conversation between Makoto and Yu implied that the killer could just stop at any moment and the game would end.
