You know what else seems to be missing?

Bathrooms.

While everyone else laments not having a toilet, Mechamaru realizes he can't take a poo poo anymore and gives in to despair.

I have to wonder what the original purpose of these halls was if Usami made them. Otherwise, it just seems like Monokuma made two food themed towers to rub in that they'd be starving.

Or maybe it's just one tower that transforms when they use the elevator room?

I wonder how Sakura would get along with Akane.

I doubt Monokuma would even give Kazuichi the chance too. Worst case scenario, Monokuma melts down Mechamaru's body and turns it into a statue of himself. Best case scenario, he just puts the body wherever the rest of the corpses are.

I'm a bit confused as to how he works. Is he not organic at all? How is his soul inside of a robot?

She is not just merely stupid, but terminally stupid - a danger not just to herself, but others as well. Nekomaru's human body was lost because of her lethal stupidity, and judging from her current state of mind, she's a prime candidate to become a cannibal. She seems most likely to become dangerous. I wouldn't miss her at all.

I like how immediately after Nidai comes back, she winds up provoking Monokuma into shooting a bazooka at her again.

Akane is basically Asahina without the charm

Yeah, Aoi was an airhead, but she was nice and had a pretty good relationship with Sakura.

Akane in comparison is just kinda dumb and her closest interaction is with Nidai, but she's had almost no moments with him at all ever since he came back.

There's also a pretty clear difference between airheaded and just outright dumb.

As I recall Naegi's luck typically made things good for him at someone else's expense, according to that short story before DR1 took place.

If that's true, then it's kind of scary to think how his luck and Nagito's would work together.

They are supposed to appear similar so that when Nagito goes nuts in the first trial it is that much more disconcerting.

Basically this. You're basically supposed to think of him as Naegi until he goes full on nuts in the first trial.

If the Ultimate Weapon is indeed knowledge of the building's layout, would that mean that the killer has also done the Final Dead Room given Nagito's revelation?

Mukuro and Fatogami were impaled. The first murder also had an attempt on a target's life (Leon, Nagito) only for someone else to wind up dead (Sayaka, Fatogami).

The Ultimate Weapon being information on the building's layout would make sense, especially given how much the trial depends on understanding the layout in order to understand the murder.

If Nagito's view from the window was a view of the building as a whole, it'd add up.

This kind of scenario is what gives the Ace Attorney games the edge over DR for me - in those people lie for valid reasons or are mistaken in a genuine fashion.

In DR the nature of the arguments means everyone but the protagonist is so loving dense! The dummy stuff that started this update was completely stupid!

Everyone except the protagonist, the rival, and the female lead, that is.
