* It's strongly implied that Junko would have resorted to [[NoPartyLikeADonnerParty eating Aoi's corpse]] to save herself and Mukuro if the motive lasted longer, as she used her perk rather than the key to Hina's room to lock it before giving it to Byakuya. It's a startling reminder that despite being far more benevolent, Junko is still ruthless and will stop at nothing to accomplish her goals.

-->'''Mukuro''': Junko... don’t try to lie. We both know that if someone else dies of starvation... I’ll be the first.
-->'''Junko''': No. You won’t be. I have a contingency.
-->'''Mukuro''': What? What are you talking about?
-->'''Junko''': Nothing you should think of just yet. You can handle a day or two more. I might be able to get through a week before needing it. We can endure.

** Celeste: Seated on a chair... completely decapitated.

** Peko: Her execution is still "One Woman Army" from ''Danganronpa 2'', the only different thing about this is how the robots end Peko's life. Rather than repeatedly stabbing her, the robots manage to ''[[HalfTheWomanSheUsedToBe cut Peko in half]]''.

* Hajime and Izuru's lab is basically the room Izuru was confined to in the ''Danganronpa 3'' anime, consisting of a bed, a walk-in closet, a single lightbulb as a light source, and old wooden floor that creaks every time it's walked on. No doubt it was an unpleasant surprise for the amnesiac Hajime.

* Upon Mukuro interrogating Monokuma about the Despair Disease, he suggests to her to indirectly provoke a killing to end the disease and keep her hands clean. This causes Mukuro to try and find a way [[DrivenToSuicide to get Kyoko to commit suicide]] in order to save Junko, although she is unable to go through with it. This reinforces a side of Mukuro shown in ''[[Anime/Danganronpa3TheEndOfHopesPeakHighSchool Side: Despair]]'' and ''LightNovel/DanganronpaZero'': she may be as much a victim of Junko's in canon as everyone else, but she was still a willing accomplice in bringing about the Tragedy.

* The cast suffers tremendously from the starvation, whether physically with Mukuro going from an athletic woman to being unable to walk without the help of someone, or mentally with Leon breaking down in tears before attacking Makoto and Celeste having a mental breakdown after learning that Aoi's death will not trigger a Class Trial and won't end the motive.

-->A skeleton.\\
Wide open eyes, bashed head and burnt hand.\\
A big burnt lump of flesh.\\
Pale face and countless chest stabs.\\
Countless pitchforks stabbed through the body.\\
A snapped neck.\\
Single sword pierced through the heart.\\
Two halves.\\
Battered, burnt and cut mess.\\
Contorted and cracked bones.\\
A bloodied hand.\\
A mummified husk.

** Sonia: In "Novoselian Revolution", a crowd of Monokumas attempt to shoot Sonia dead while she escapes. When it seems Sonia has reached an escape route, it turns out to be another trap by Monokuma, which makes her fall onto a bunch of Monokumas holding up pitchforks, [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impaling her]].

* The cast suffers tremendously from the starvation, whether physically with Mukuro going from an athletic woman to being unable to walk without the help of someone, or mentally with Leon breaking down in tears before attacking Makoto and Celeste going on a mental breakdown after learning that Aoi's death will not trigger a Class Trial and won't end the motive.

** Aoi later ''dies'' of starvation and dehydration. The Funhouse only deprives the students of food and Junko concludes that Aoi never left her room after arriving at the Funhouse. Seeing that Mukuro is still alive if very weakened, it means Aoi lost the will to live even before being trapped in it, and the motive only accelerated her death by making sure that she couldn't have access to food and diverting the attention of the other students from her. Even worse, because her death is considered to be of "natural causes," there is no Class Trial for her, the motive will continue, and Aoi's body will be left to rot until a murder happens. The surviving students decide to lock her room with her body inside because neither they or Usami can do anything else about it.

The surviving students decide to lock her room with her body inside because they and Usami literally cannot do anything else.

*** Aoi later ''dies'' of starvation and dehydration. The Funhouse only deprives the students of food and Junko concludes that Aoi never left her room after arriving at the Funhouse. Seeing that Mukuro is still alive if very weakened, it means Aoi let herself die even before being trapped in it, and the motive only accelerated it by making sure that she couldn't have access to food and diverted the attention of the other students from her. Even worse, her death was because of "natural cause" so there is no Class Trial for her, the motive will continue and Aoi's body will be left to rot until a murder happens. The surviving students decide to lock her room with her body inside because they and Usami cannot do anything else.
* The cast suffers trenmendously from the starvation, Physically with Mukuro going from a athletic woman to be unable to walk without the help of someone. But also mentally, with Leon breaking down in tears before attacking Makoto and Celeste going on a mental breakdown after learning that Aoi's death will not trigger a Class Trial and won't end the motive.

* Aoi dying of starvation means there is no Class Trial and it doesn't end the motive. It also means that the body of Aoi will be left to rot until a murder happens by Usami's own admission. The surviving students ressort to simply close her room since they cannot do anything else.

* They way Hina just [[HeroicBSOD shuts down]] and refuses to interact with the group is as sad as it is unsettling. She refuses to explore the Funhouse and spends most of her time sobbing and curled up in a fetal position. Being betrayed by Sakura, threatened with a knife by Sayaka, and being told by Kyoko that she shouldn't be alive really has taken a toll on her sanity and she now expects the other students to turn on her as well, making her lose all hope. Monokuma disabling her perk to prevent any of the students from eating doesn't help in the slightest.

* After the trial, the surviving student reemerge from the Trial Grounds [[WhamShot only to find a lookalike of Toko calling herself Genocider Syo]]. Suddenly the reason why Toko didn't turn into her SplitPersonality after fainting earlier in the chapter makes perfect sense.
** Just how did Genocder Syo [[LiteralSplitPersonality get separated from Toko]]? So far it hasn't been explained how exactly the Neo World Program managed to separate the two of them.

** Even the Monokuma theater segment at the end of this Daily Life segment plays with the concept of [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou the monster being close to the reader themselves]].

-->'''Mahiru''': A skeleton.\\

* Even with Usami having half of the control of the school trip, Byakuya is more interested in Monokuma's take of it [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids and tells off Usami when she tries to convince him that getting along with everyone else is better]].

** Hifumi only managed to finish Toko's route before the arcade machine was destroyed. If Toko's route contained such a gruesome "reward", [[ParanoiaFuel just what exactly was hidden in Sayaka's route]]?

** Thought the reveal of Despair Mikan with her {{Yandere}} love for Junko and Despair was terrifying in canon? How about the [[NotSoStoic mostly stoic]] logic-based detective suddenly becoming a LaughingMad killer who [[ThrillSeeker gets off on the thrill of trying to get away with murder]], and doesn't care whether or not they succeed in doing so? That's basically Despair Kyoko for you.

* Rather than being able to call the elevator at any time the students desire, this one moves by itself every three hours, and in order to keep the mystery of the funhouse hidden, both houses are gassed with sleeping gas every time the elevator moves. Not only is the gang stuck in a strange place with no food, but they also have to deal with being constantly gassed.

* Outside from being themed after Bananas and Blueberries instead of Strawberries and Grapes, there are now ''two'' Final Rooms, one in each Funhouse. Even the one in the Banana House, Usami's side, is a life-or-death trial.

* Yasuhiro spends half of the chapter completely paranoid, accusing Sayaka and Sakura of plotting a murder and warning Leon that someone would try to kill him as he had made predictions of these things happening. In the end, his own paranoia ends up getting him killed.
** At one point upon coming upon Sayaka, Kyoko, and Mukuro, he points accusingly at them and claims to "know what (they're) planning." Given that Sayaka and Kyoko end up becoming the blackened in the next two chapters respectively, [[FridgeHorror what does that mean for Mukuro]]?

* Genocider Syo threw away Hifumi's letter and Celeste ended up finding it. Believing that the note was intended for her, Celeste began working on an elaborate murder plan (dropping the library's chandelier on the would-be attacker and framing Mukuro for the crime) that would've been successful [[SpannerInTheWorks had the real killer not gotten involved in the situation]].
