History Foreshadowing / DanganronpaV3KillingHarmony

* Comparing In-Game and Pre-game designs may go unnoticed but Tsumugi is the only character to have drastic changes to her physique (her lip is different, the shape of her face and eyes change, and your her becomes less pale). It's a subtle first sign that she's different from the other students.

* Before everybody uses the flashback light in Chapter 4, Kokichi tells Kaito that he doesn't have the balls to use the flashback light, which immediately provokes him into activating it. Come the class trial, Kokichi plays Kaito like a fiddle by making fun of him and his values in order to provoke Kaito into ending his friendship with Shuichi.

** Gonta suffers from an extremely low self-esteem, which leads him to defer to everyone else's decisions instead of ever trying to think for himself due to belief that he is an idiot and other people know better than him. This leads him to giving Kokichi the benefit of doubt despite everyone else already knowing that Kokichi is up to no good and ''should not'' be trusted. Gonta also asks Kokichi's permission to converse with Shuichi after Chapter 1 out of fear that Kokichi would do something bad to him if he randomly disconnected from their bond, suggesting that Gonta suspects Kokichi isn't above hurting him, which is proven true to a truly horrifying extent in Chapter 4.
** Kaito's ideology of believing in others and not suspecting others creates an [[InvertedTrope inversion of the trope]] would lead him to believe that working with someone else who wants to end the Killing Game (who turns out to be Kokichi, as Chapter 4 reveals) can create a plan that would ''actually'' end the game.

* During the demo's class trial, there isn't enough room for the entire cast of ''V3'' in addition to Makoto Naegi and Hajime Hinata, so Monokuma has Rantaro Amami and K1-B0 sit out. Who would ever think that one of them would ''actually'' be the first victim and not participate in any of the class trials?
* During the prologue, the chapter title appears as normal, with the text perfectly straight. After getting their clothes from the Monokubs and are subjected to a blinding light before being put back where they came from, the chapter title is suddenly lopsided and everyone remembers their talents and background. A ''huge'' clue into the final twist of the game...

* The opening has a silhouette with purple glowing eyes for every character except Rantaro, who directly becomes a shadow. This is likely a hint that, unlike everyone else, he knew what situation he was in due to his survivor status.

** After the first trial, Tsumugi can be found around the sealed door.
