* Many people believed Fuyuhiko's sister's name was Natsumi Kuzuryuu long before her debut in ''Side:Despair''.
* Many guessed at Andou and Izayoi being a couple before the anime started airing, based purely on Izayoi's profile.
* A common theory was that Gekkogahara was Monaca, and right they were. For the most part.
* Yukizome having feelings for Munakata was assumed by many due to her profile. That the feeling was actually mutual, as made increasingly clear as the anime went on, was more of a surprise.
* Many correctly guessed that Kizakura would go out in HeroicSacrifice saving Kirigiri. Similarly, many guessed that his NG code had something to do with his left hand since he doesn't take it out of his coat pocket.
* Many guessed as well that Andou activated Izayoi's NG code and killed him.

* There were two popular theories on what Tengan told Munakata that caused Munakata to GoMadFromTheRevelation, those being either "The Attacker Alternates" or that Yukizome was a despair. Episode 10 proved in a sense both to be correct.

* In ''Side: Despair'', despite the fact that it seemed to hint that Juzo had romantic feelings for Chisa, quite a few fans theorized that he was actually AmbiguouslyGay for Munakata. Episode 10 finally confirmed this to be true.

* Many fans doubted that the robot boy would be the new protagonist. While they were wrong that the twin-tail girl was the true protagonist, neither was he. The protagonist ended up being Kaede Akamatsu, a character who had not been shown until the following PV.

* Many fans correctly called Saihara and Harukawa]being survivors.
* The identity of the first victim was an ''extremely'' common and specific prediction, since Amami falls right into the "seemingly-important character" mold even more blatantly than Maizono or "Togami"... Making the identity of the ''killer'' into the real shocking reveal.

The execution shown is actually Kirumi's.
* Even before the Datamine, Spoiler, and Trophy Leaks, many fans correctly guessed that ''Danganronpa V3'' will fit the series formula to the Tee, including Kaede not being the real protagonist. This was first brought out by [=OmegaValwin=]'s "[[ColorMotif Pink=lies]]" theory.

* Most fans guessed the main heroine was Makoto's sister well before it was actually announced.
* Quite a lot of people guessed that Masaru would be the first member of the Warriors of Hope to die. When the game out, they were proven to be correct... Well, he's the first to be defeated, anyway.
* Pretty much all of the exact theories were inaccurate, but most people did guess that, in some way, Komaru was connected to Junko Enoshima.
* Many correctly pinned Monaca as a BitchInSheepsClothing. They weren't prepared for ''how'' evil [[HateSink she truly is]], though.

** And many more also guessed that Juzo's Forbidden Action was punching anyone.
* Many fans guessed that, due to ''Side: Despair'' being a massive ForegoneConclusion (and a [[DownerEnding less than happy one]] at that), that the series would find some to tie its two halves together at the end. This was eventually confirmed to be the case late in the series run when it turned out the final episode was shared. And everyone guessed the special broadcast would be called ''Side:Hope''.
* Episode 10 of ''Side:Future'' confirms a fan theory that Chisa is a Despair remnant and possibly the mastermind for the killing game. And Kyosuke's NG Code was opening doors.

* In the LP thread, thanks to time between updates and readers bouncing ideas off one another, almost every plot twist has been predicted at some point. Bonus points for when the correct guesses are made and then [[{{Pun}} shot down]].
* However, some of it might be from people who played the game before or looked at spoilers and are presenting what they know happened as "theories".
* Perhaps the biggest example is the infamous [[MemeticMutation JUNKOS]] theory. Basically, someone thought that while it made sense for Sayaka to be a SacrificialLamb, it didn't make sense for Junko to be one, given that we learned so little of her character. The theory then goes to say Junko must have a BackupTwin. It became a RunningGag in the LP thread until it was proven right.
* The reveal that Chihiro is a WholesomeCrossdresser. Easier to figure out in the Japanese version due to said character being voiced by [[LarynxDissonance a man who is obviously trying to sound like a woman]].
