Post Chapter 3 Deadly Life Power Rankings of Infinite Sadness
16. Byakuya

15. Teruteru

14. Mahiru

13. Peko

12. Hiyoko Im 99% sure Hiyokko died first due to the bloody slippers, so Im leaving her here now. Sadly, this means this is the last thing Ill likely say about Hiyoko now until I rank all the characters at the end. RIP tiny psychopath I will avenge you.

11. Ibuki Yeah, figured she was under the bag because nothing else made sense. It kind of sucks she gets killed not because of any mistake she made, but because hey you have a disease that will make you commit suicide if anyone tells you to. Thats pretty bs, imo. Like, thats just Monokuma singling out someone and marking them for death, basically. I kind of miss Danganronpa 1s cases in that regards. Compare case two/case three in that game (motives being Ill reveal an embarrassing secret about all of you and a huge pile of cash) vs. case two/three in this game (here is one guys sister getting murdered and one girl helping to cover it up AND these three people are going to get sick and one of them is going to commit suicide because of this stupid variation of the disease she got). Like it felt like anything could happen in the first game, while in this one it is increasingly feeling like Monokuma is just picking out characters he doesnt like and making the motive affect them specifically.
Tl;dr IBUKI SHOULDNT BE DEAD THIS WHOLE THING IS RIGGED

10. Mikan - Repeating my: :(. Im kind of torn here, because I have two theories. One of them is based on the evidence (Mikan) and the other is based on what makes sense storywise (Fuyuhiko). Im 99.99% sure its one of these two. Nagito/Akane were incapacitated, Gundham/Chiaki have air tight alibis since they were with me, Nekomaru may or may not already be dead, Sonia/Kazuichi had no real way to get into the hospital to get Ibuki. So it needs to be Mikan or Fuyuhiko. I feel like the upstairs room is where the video was recorded even though I dont quite get the how of it just yet. Which would strongly point to Mikan since she literally went up there. But it makes no sense with her character, so Im torn. Plus, she is Hajimes bae and one of my favorite characters so far so I dont want to see her leave.

9. Fuyuhiko My brain is telling me Mikan, but my heart is telling me Fuyuhiko. Itd be a much cooler twist, I think. Peko dies last chapter, and he loses any connection he has to the rest of the group. He acts like he wants to be friends and has turned a new leaf, but he secretly plots against everyone. He gets himself thrown back in the hospital with a self-inflicted injury so he can scout the place, and then even volunteers himself to help Hajime look after things so he can have access to the facility. He also is very quick to accuse Kazuichi/Sonia since they have no alibi while he was a very good alibi yep yep dont look at it too much. I could see him going crazy and killing two people (he said hed do it before) while it doesnt make as much sense and would be a total departure of everything weve seen from Mikan so far. Theres no real evidence for this though unless Im missing something. But Im holding out hope for my girl Mikan that Fuyuhiko is the real murderer here.

8. Nekomaru Im still not sure this dude is actually alive. Im half hoping Monokuma screwed up and accidentally killed him but doesnt want to admit he broke the rules. So next chapter Monokuma shows up in a leather jacket talking about HEALTHY BOWEL MOVEMENTS and PANTS THAT ARE TOO TIGHT in an effort to convince us Nekomaru isnt actually a corpse. At least two of the remaining students would 100% believe it.

7. Kazuichi It isnt him, but hes really the only other guy it could be at all. He did set up the monitors, so Im trying to think of a way he could mess with them somehow. He was also totally useless during this investigation and all I remember him doing is yelling IM HOT and leaving the murder scene immediately. Im trying to think what kind of mindset Id have to be in to see the corpses of two of my friends and say hey, who the hell is messing with the thermostat?

6. Nagito Definitely not the killer. But also definitely not surviving to the end. Hes been walking around begging for someone to kill him on murder island for like two and a half chapters now. Someone is going to take him up on that.

5. Gundham There is something increasingly funny to me about the image of a series of increasingly brutal murders occurring in the background while one of the supporting characters sits around and talks to hamsters. He does get some points this chapter for actually helping me find a clue, though!

4. Akane I really have no strong feelings on Akane at all so far which is weird. Maybe that means shell be a victim at some point because she has waaaaay less characterization than everyone else so far, but I think it is super unlikely shes a killer. Shes too dumb. Wed find her snacking with blood on her hands and the corpse jammed under her shirt.

3. Sonia Dont blame yourself for Hiyokos death, Sonia! You only were the one that got her out of her room! And sent her to the murder scene! And put her in the one place where she could possibly be in danger at that time and hey why are you crying? I really like Sonia and shes in that nice middle ground of well written/smart/quirky that I think she has a good shot of making it all the way to the end. Shes sort of the heart of the group at this point, so hopefully that doesnt mean she gets ripped out and stomped to pieces any time soon.

2. Hajime Still our adorable hero. Still way better than the last games hero. Still possibly the big bad traitor theyve been talking about every chapter so far.

1. Chiaki Chiaki is a top tier character so far and actually helpful in the court cases. Of course, based on how my predictions have gone so far, this probably means shell die in the next chapter. She was likesuper into this case. Her and Nagito both. I have no idea what the hell that is about, so Im looking forward to Chiaki revealing her ULTIMATE FORM and going Super Saiyan on the murderer in the trial.
