It is well over 30 chapters later before anyone speaks of it again, but in between that time, all parties involved carry on as if it never happened. [[spoiler: Which may be what some readers prefer. After all, at the time that chapter was first published, Kaito/Maki and Peko/Fuyuhiko fans feared their ships would be sunk]]. [[spoiler: In the end, it stayed a one night stand, they stayed JustFriends, and the only ship that got sunk (if it even ''was'' a ship to begin with for anyone) was [[KilledOffForReal Peko]]/Maki.]]

* CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming: Plenty of moments for Chihiro/Miu, from him asking her out (and reassuring her) in chapter 42, said date in chapter 47, him not hesitating to defend her from accusations of being a traitor in 48, their reunion in 61 and conversation in 62, and how he's quick to hold her hand when she's being assaulted by hallucinations in chapter 69. [[spoiler: It culminates in him giving her a LoveConfession in chapter 76, which she reciprocates.]]
* CruelAndUnusualDeath / NightmareFuel: As in canon, the various murders and executions usually fit either or both tropes.
** [[spoiler: Rantaro: Pick-axed to death by Monokumas while climbing a small mountain. There was even a HopeSpot that he'd get a stay of Execution if he could pull the flag off of the summit (he couldn't).]]
** [[spoiler: Himiko: After getting beaten to death (by her own mage staff no less!), her body is [[DesecratingTheDead dumped into a piranha tank]]! Only her hat and staff are left behind.]]
** [[spoiler: Nekomaru: Subjected to increasingly loud applause by Monokumas until his veins rupture.]]
** [[spoiler: Ibuki: An in-universe NightmareFuel example, as her death (bashed in the head by a shot put ball) happens on a stage ''in full view of most of the surviving cast''! Including her LoveInterest, no less!]]
*** [[spoiler: Gets worse when you find out ''who'' set up the trap in the first place.]]
** [[spoiler: Leon: His canon execution (shot with a thousand baseballs from a pitching machine), with the added bonus of being beaten with baseball bats first.]]
*** [[spoiler: Right before that, everyone gets to see Kanon also get beaten to death with a baseball bat, much to their (especially Leon's) horror.]]
** [[spoiler: Yasuhiro: Impaled on spikes after falling off a giant tarot card.]]
** [[spoiler: Gundham, Ishimaru, and the Imposter: Poisoned, with their dead bodies later [[DesecratingTheDead coated in hot wax]] to hide any evidence.]]
** [[spoiler: Angie: Drowned in hot wax, which sets her on fire in the process! She even get's a HopeSpot of starting to crack the glass container she's in ... right before a stream of wax hits her dead on.]]
** [[spoiler: Sayaka and Sonia: Locked in an iron maiden and impaled with spikes once a timer goes off.]]
** [[spoiler: Korekiyo: Eaten alive by scarabs while trapped in a sarcophagus.]]
** [[spoiler: Gonta: Shot by a nail gun, with multiple nails impaling his chest, one through an eye, and a nail to the jugular vein from a different person being what actually killed him.]]
