* TheDulcineaEffect: Even after learning that [[spoiler:Mukuro]] was working with the Mastermind, Mondo still moves to protect her from the others' wrath. (Whether or not she ''needs'' the protection is beside the point.)
* DungeonBypass: How do you open up the gates to the higher levels of Hope's Peak without murdering anyone? Answer: [[spoiler:The [[MoreDakka private arsenal]] of a SHSL Soldier]].
* [[spoiler:EarnYourHappyEnding: It takes several loops and a lot of pain and suffering, but Naegi manages to live up to being SHSL Hope and find a way to keep ''everyone'' alive]].
* FastballSpecial: [[spoiler:Mukuro sets Leon up for one of these by tossing him a ticking Monobear, which he then uses to clear a path]].
* FramingTheGuiltyParty: Naegi finds himself having to attempt this after [[spoiler:Sayaka murders Leon]]. [[spoiler:He fails.]]
* ForWantOfANail: Typically, the different things occuring in each loop are a natural outgrowth of the changes Naegi makes.
* GroundhogPeggySue
* HeelFaceDoorSlam: [[spoiler:Poor Ikusaba]] gets hit by this several times. [[spoiler:In the final loop, it sticks]].
* MyDeathIsJustTheBeginning: Combined with MercyKill when [[spoiler:Mukuro tells Naegi there's no cameras in her room, then murders him so he won't risk getting his memories erased]].
* RippleEffectProofMemory: Naegi naturally has this as part of the set-up. [[spoiler:The Mastermind wants to see if this could be erased by another dose of LaserGuidedAmnesia whenever she finds out about it.]]
* SaveThisPersonSaveTheWorld: Over time, Naegi begins to wonder if the key to ending the time loops is ensuring that [[spoiler:Mukuro Ikusaba]] doesn't die.
* SenselessSacrifice: In one loop, [[spoiler:Naegi's attempt to [[TakingTheBullet take the spears]] for Mukuro]] just leads to both their deaths.
* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong
* TheSlowPath: Whenever he doesn't get killed, Naegi deliberately chooses to complete every loop even after something goes wrong, just in case the others still need his help or he ''doesn't'' get reset this time.
* UncertainDoom: Befalls [[spoiler:Ikusaba]] in one of the loops in the form of a BolivianArmyEnding.
* VillainousBreakdown: The Mastermind throws a hissy fit when [[spoiler:one game ends with only a single murder/execution, and her attempt to stir things up with a faked murder fails]].
** Later on, [[spoiler:she [[{{Subverted}} subverts]] this, finding the Despair of being betrayed by her own sister too glorious to get properly enraged over]].
* YouHaveToBelieveMe: Naegi falls into this when trying to convince the others that [[spoiler:Sayaka's responsible for murdering Leon]].
