This notably happens before the first execution, where we find out that Monobear tailors the executions to the culprit.

* In Case 1, before the murder actually happens, everyone makes a big deal about what bullshit Monobear is spouting if he actually thinks the students would ever resort to murder. Besides, Naegi thinks, they all seem like such nice people, don't they? (Oowada's bad temper, Fukuwa's paranoia, and Togami's jerkass tendencies aside.) Well obviously, a murder ''does'' happen, but that's obvious when it comes to this game. The Fridge Horror kicks in when Monobear executes [[spoiler: Leon Kuwata]], the first murderer: everyone crowds around to watch the execution up close! ''Everyone!'' Nobody tries to stop [[spoiler: the baseball machine from beating Leon to death]], nobody throws up, nobody even averts their eyes. They just...stand there, like members of a lynch mob who aren't actually participating in the lynching. Certainly they all call Monobear a monster, say this is too cruel, etc., but that's ''after'' the execution is over. While it's happening, they all crowd around outside [[spoiler: the batting cage]] like solemn judges.

And he didn't even kill Chihiro on purpose; he lost control of his emotions and doesn't even remember bringing the dumbbell down on Chihiro's head. And, he couldn't even frame another culprit, Genocider Syo, by himself. The main reason chapter 2's trial was so hard was because Byakuya Togami interfered with the crime scene for his own reasons that had nothing to ''do'' with Mondo. Finally, he's not even the final Machine Gun Talk Battle in Chapter 2's trial; Kiyotaka Ishimaru has to jump to his defense and fight you in his place. Mondo's influence on the world might as well be pancake butter, ''even as a murderer!!!'']]

** Additionally, [[spoiler: Mondo can't even ''kill'' people from a position of strength. He didn't kill his big brother directly; his big brother died saving his life from a truck he was about to crash into.

* [[spoiler: The same goes for the second execution. Mondo is basically a person built on weakness and lies, that is the entire point of his character arc. He was looked down upon for being in his brother's shadow, he lied about his mistake getting his big brother killed, and he couldn't overcome his weakness and finally snapped when Chihiro ''could''. So what does Monokuma do? His punishment, forcing Mondo to ride a motorcycle at speeds that turn him into paste, basically strips Mondo of any presence he has, ''even his corpse'', which Monokuma ''eats''. Even in ''death'' Mondo's presence is ineffectual and eventually erased from existence.]]

* Monokuma tailors each of his [[CruelAndUnusualDeath punishments]] to fit the victim in ways beyond the immediately obvious. For instance, while the connection between the first murderer and their method of punishment is blatant, [[RelationshipValues spending Free Time]] with [[spoiler:Kuwata]] reveals another layer: [[spoiler:Leon frequently skipped practice, feeling he didn't have to go because of his natural talent. Monokuma literally ''drags'' him into the batting cage and forces him to stay there until he's finished.]]
* Similiarly, Chapter 3's execution makes more sense in light of the murderer's character: [[spoiler:Celes presents a romanticized front, and wished to go out in a blaze of darkly dramatic glory, an image she tried to mantain at the very end. Monokuma deliberately plays on this, making her believe she's going to die in a suitably gothic fashion -- before pulling a bait and switch at the last moment.]]
