There he became a prominent soldier alongside Mukuro, even forming a close relationship with her. This was enough that Hope's Peak accepted both of them as the Ultimate Knife Fighter and the Ultimate Markswoman respectively. [[spoiler: However, it turns out to be false when it is revealed they weren't the original Byakuya or Mukuro.]]
11	* AmbiguousSituation: The identity of the Mastermind of the Killing Game, [[spoiler: Even after the others escaped. A prevailing theory in the Future Foundation is that it was committed by one of the Remnants of Despair.]]

15	* BittersweetEnding: The surviving students make it out of Hope's Peak. [[spoiler: However, during their escape from the Monokuma army, "Sayaka" and "Hifumi" are injured and separated from the others. Thankfully they were rescued by the future, but the rest of their group("Leon", "Mondo", "Chihiro", and "Celeste" are left behind in the despair-ruled world) are left behind, but a brief HopeSpot at the end shows them approaching a Future Foundation helicopter. They also learn they can't have their memories of their true identities restored without losing what memories they've made during their Killing School Life.]]

He has no way of knowing that the original Mondo was executed by having his body dissolved.]]
25	* EveryoneKnowsMorse: Mukuro uses Morse Code to signal that she knows Makoto's killer. Among those that were interrogating her, only Toko understood, but she was too nervous to speak up until the middle of the trial
