windylion posted:No one else has asked this, so I'm wondering: how the hell is fat Togami in high school again? At the end of DR he's 19. Maybe Fatgami is his son or twin or something. Well, Togami did make it clear in DR1 that he's part of the DR-Illuminati and all, so I'm thinking he might just be a clone that was made before the Most Despairing Event. Makes as much sense as anything else, at least.

IceBorg posted:With that out of way, the fact that the school invited SHSL Good Luck people every year makes me come to the conclusion that this cast of students are upperclassmen to the DR1 cast!(besides Togami I guess) From what I remember of the last trial of DR1, I'm pretty sure Naegi et al. were there for 2 years before The Most Despairing Event happened. Naegi's invite made it sound like he was the first SHSL-Luck too, so I think that either Komaeda said it's an annual thing to cover his tracks (if he is Naegi incognito) or ever since Naegi got in, it was intended to be an annual thing after all and Komaeda got the second/last Luck invite. So, either way, it's certainly possible for these guys to be the DR1 cast's underclassmen; upper seems like too much of a stretch right now. Really, though, Togami's existence here is a pretty noticable issue with either but I expect that to be resolved later.

She is; she refers to other HPA students as her classmates in passing near the start of the chapter.Rith posted:It sounds to me as if her 'treatment' is actually causing her amnesia. I have two theories: the neurologist is a member of Super High-school Level Despair, developing the technology that Junko will later use for the memory wipe, or the neurologist isn't a member of Super High-school Level Despair and Junko stole the technology, in which case Hope's Peak Academy (if it's funding this research) is a lot more alarming than I ever realised. What sort of institution uses its students for experiments like this? It might be the other way around too; Junko could have caused her memory issues as a test to see how well it works and any issues with it. Meanwhile, Matsuda's trying to figure out how to fix it or at least come up with a temporary solution or something.

tiistai posted:There's no chance involved on the killer's part. They saw the knife or more likely someone planting the knife, and then decided to wait under the floor for them to eventually go for the knife. The only thing that happened by chance was Togami ending up as the victim. Except, someone going fully under the table at all was pure chance. If Nagito did put the knife there, he'd just have to lift the tablecloth, and stick his arm under to grab it. He's kind of a tall guy, so this would be more than doable. If someone was waiting under the floorboards to stab Nagito, they'd get his hand and... then what?

kidcoelacanth posted:I suspect that Gundam's story as to how he got his earring back is gonna blow this one wide open. Yeah; Nagito and Hinata both noticed it, so I'm expecting them to ask about it pretty quickly. Probably after going through stuff relating to the murder weapon and how it can't be the knife because it's too big for those wounds. So, it looks like Togami was killed with a skewer from under the floorboards. Guess that means Hanamura did it (or is our most likely suspect, at least), though I'm curious as to where he hid it beforehand now.

I get the impression that Hanamura here just seems more suspect than Souda, Mahiru or Pekoyama because so far he's most people's number 1 suspect, so they're looking for the slightest thing to pin against him even if it doesn't really work. As is, I agree that he's still most likely to be the culprit but he's been not even remotely suspicious in the trial yet. At least wait for him to have the rope to use, before accusing him of hanging himself. If anything, the fact that he was panicking the most before getting in the elevator and is now super-calm is the oddest part of his behaviour so far. No idea what would cause such a sudden change so quickly, so it's probably just for gameplay convenience or something.

I love how they keep bringing up ideas debated in the thread. Kuzuryuu coming out with the suggestion that Pekoyama's food was drugged was amazing. Nidai's interjection was even more amazing, though.

Tomn posted:It may not be impossible, but here's my question to you - do you want to risk your life on being able to kill someone in the dark without getting their blood on you or screwing up your initial attack? [...] If it's dark enough that you can't pick out the stationary food on the stationary plate in front of you, what are the odds of successfully murdering and not screwing it up? I think you may have just stumbled upon the relevance of Mikan's unfortunate position when the lights came back on. People got caught up on it being due to a trapdoor or something else that Togami's murderer did, but if she was tripped by someone in the dark (e.g. Komaeda, since he's the biggest suspect for that aspect) then they'd know roughly where she was. They'd possibly even have a guiding line to her, much like the lamp to the knife, depending on how they did it, and the paint on the knife should cast enough light to be able to see exactly where she is. Or maybe I'm completely wrong and she just got knocked over when Togami went running for the knife.

Spatula City posted:It's like the curious incident of the dog in the night time. The dog did nothing in the night time! "That was the curious incident." Dunno how I missed that Hanamura didn't respond at all; guess at this point, I just took it for granted without actually checking. Because it's Hanamura and that's been his thing. I suppose with that minor issue out of the way, though, the only things left that we can't really account for is maybe(?) the fire door. Looking over the list HangedMan put together, everything else seems to fit reasonably well then.

SectumSempra posted:Ok so if he's not the culprit, what happens if you pick the correct culprit instead of Komaeda? You'd almost definitely get that choice wrong, because that was for "who could reach the knife" not "who stabbed Togami." Minus Green posted:Didn't they suspend a trial in the first game, to investigate Chihiro further? It just didn't actually say "Classroom Trial Suspended". Yeah, but that was just one scene. This implies it's going to be a bit more than a single mid-trial scene. I'm interested in seeing what the hell is going to happen that warrants actually suspending the entire trial for some length over. e; lotus circle posted:Seeing how Hanamura was trying to rush the voting, I think it's still safe to say he's the culprit now that Nagito is officially out of the running. I agree that Hanamura is still looking like the most likely suspect, but this one aspect adds nothing. Saionji, Kuzuryuu, and even Gundam to an extent were saying to just end it there and vote now.

We don't know when SDR2 is set in comparison to DR1, though is the thing; if it was only one person could ever have an SHSL talent ever that wouldn't make much sense. You can't exactly be Super High School level when you're not in high school, and it'd mean Hope's Peak would run out of possible students very quickly too. Given how they want to study talent, that'd be contradictory to why they exist in the first place.

Judging from her tastes, I wouldn't be that surprised if Sonia had seen Meitantei no Okite at some point. Though thinking about it it's perhaps too recent for the game to reference or perhaps even, ironically, Sonia to know anything about. Shame too, since that'd be an interesting way to bring the Liar Game reference from Celes' events in the previous game full circle since Shota Matsuda's the male lead in both.

Sit back and watch as the group unity starts to unravel even further after that lunkhead challenge's got the muscleman in the group hospitalized. This is a loving EVIL plan, but... Monobear didn't exactly come out and say he'd offer a mono-booster shot to everybody if they show him a corpse, did he? You're thinking way too hard about this. You kill someone, you get off the island. The island now has a few people infected with a disease that Monobear straight up said is incredibly contagious and airborne. It also makes you insane, and act in a manner in which you wouldn't normally. By killing someone and getting off the island, you are not going to catch the disease. This is not a complicated plan in the least. What the disease does is, for that intent, completely irrelevant. It could be anything really, but all that matters is its contagious and bad enough to make you want to kill someone. Whether it's Monobear's despair disease or something more like the Spanish Flu makes no difference at all in that regard. That is is the despair thing is just so it's thematically appropriate.

I kinda figured it was Chang and Eng, but then that wouldn't really necessitate changing since most people know who they were anyway. Probably wouldn't really have worked in the context, but that doesn't stop most things I've seen that need lazy twin names (or references or the like). Seem to almost always use either those two, or Castor and Pollux if they're feeling daring with it .
