Trial begins.

So, I think the obvious explanation is that the murder weapon were poisoned arrows, and the victim was already dead when they were put under the press, otherwise the safety system would have worked.

Oh Maki I know you want to prove Kaito is dead but challenging me to a rebuttal showdown this early? You're gonna be crushed.

And entire game and I'd never noticed Kaito wore one sleeve outside of the arm and the other one normally. lol.

I win the showdown but Maki doesn't give a fuck.

Monokuma brings out the suspect. That was faster than I had expected.

It's Kaito, yay! In an exisal, because why not.

RIP Kokichi. You were an amazing villain. But the same thing I said to Nagito applies to you. Becoming the game's secondary villain does not help your survivability past the penultimate case.

Okay, is Monokuma fucking with me? Of course he is.

I googled the reference and it's Frank Sinatra. That's pretty old.

Okay, video evidence of Kaito being crushed. That's pretty decisive.

RIP Kaito? Eh, I don't trust this game anymore.

"That's because I used my magic to transfer all my barf over to you". lol Himiko, never change.

Kokichi does not know who Junko is. Heh.

"Everything you buy will go on sale the next day Cure". That sounds horrifying.

Oh boy, Himiko helped with the murder by bringing the crossbow there, but only found out what was done with it now.

It's amazing how at a moment like this the writers choose to make Himiko the accidental accomplice, even though she's already had enough screentime in this game. Not Tsumugi. Because Tsumugi must be kept from interacting with the plot at all costs.

"You've been weird since we mentioned small holes!" lol. It would be great if Miu was still alive.

Himiko and Maki both start defending themselves, so we get a 3-way debate. Cuz Kokichi also has to go "maybe I did it lol".

Ok Maki is onto something. The narration suggests it and I agree. This can't just be angst at Shuichi.

Heh. The exisal has a voice changer. Trolls everywhere.

The exisal claims to be Kaito now but I'm not buying until I see it.

Guess: they're both dead/dieing. Maybe they are even both in the exisal. The poison does take a few hours to work.

The gameplay asks me to pick one of the two and I pick Kaito. Hmm... I'm not even sure if I can trust the gameplay anymore. The only damning evidence is that video, but that's too easy. There is no other evidence that I remember, though.

It's debate scum time. And I'll defend the Kaito = dead side.

Debate scum won, but the bastard still doesn't open the exisal.

Yeah Keebo don't consider this won until you've gone through all of that truth bullet list. This game is not trust-worthy.

"Only one arrow was fired". I think that was the easiest non-stop debate in the series. What's even the point?

Oooooh so Himiko only took one arrow to the hangar. Spicy.

I smell balloney.

Might be the first time in this game I actually think the timing is good for a psyche taxi. To figure out some impossible contradiction. Not just repeat stuff that's already obvious.

Oh boy it's Maki who brought the arrows. Tell me she's not the culprit.

Maki came in and killed Kokichi? Then Kokichi killed Kaito? I'm scared that this actually sounds like the most logical explanation.

Oh so that's why Maki said she would use an knife and not a hammer. I love how this series foreshadows things.

Took half a trial but we finally got the poison to be brought up. This is the most critical point of discussion.

Ok so she knows Kokichi didn't do it but she has nothing to lose. If they get a mistrial, Kokichi dies. I wonder who would live, though. Maki herself?

That's a very shitty way to fight for hope, though. Making humanity go extinct. Makoto would yell at you for not shooting higher.

I'm getting 1-5 vibes. Maybe the trial ends here but then is resumed.

Eh no it's the intermission. There's more shit to go down. I feel like we've used almost every truth bullet, though.
