* When Yuno and Yuki had sex, Yuno said that it was her first time. But this is the second time she entered the game, what about the first world Yuki? Did she have sex with him (which means that she lied about her virginity) or she killed him before they could have sex in the first world ?

** Implied that her dad was never 'bad', just too busy with work to notice that his wife was slowly going insane, possibly some mental sickness. So in the third world they noticed that problem soon enough (similiar to the 4th's son, who got saved because his sickness was noticed earlier) and Yuno Gasai never got subjected to that abuse. Slightly subverted in that aspect because Yuno still would become crazy and yandere, if you realize that the 3rd Yuno holds memories of all the shit the 1st Yuno went through...

* If Yuno's parents were so bad, to the point they drove her to become who she became in the first place... why the hell are they there for her and caring and all of that in the third world? Doesn't that contradict the whole being ridiculously abusive and keeping her in a cage thing a bit?

*** The offical explaination is that the weight was off in the tomatoes from when she washed them to when they were about to eat them. This appears strange, yes, but when you factor in she was on her guard all day it makes perfect sense. Of course she would notice even the slight change and react as if it was the worst possible thing. A combintion of luck, paranoia, and skill.

** [[SarcasmMode Yeah.]] Nothing crazy at all about a serial killer, a terrorist bomber, the prophetess of a self-proclaimed ReligionOfEvil, a guy who thinks he's a Hero of Justice but actually is just a vigilante nutcase, the {{Tykebomb}}, the cop who betrayed his principles, the group of orphans trying to make their foster mother figure God whether she wants it or not and killing in the process (and the mother herself, who kills for her little darlings because they want her to), a major who wants his citizens to become a master race like Hitler wanted, gaining nigh-omniscience as a byproduct of it, a man manically in love with his dogs, neglecting anything else for them...

*** It could be argued that the the 7th's are crazy for each other, and in a way that stretches way beyond being a loving couple. And Yuki... with the help of Yuno and the scenarios he's put into, Yuki eventually cracks and/or shatters mentally under the strain of the game..

* Why is almost everyone making a huge deal out of the recent sex scene? First of all, what makes it any different from a sex scene between the hero and the "love interest" (note the quotation marks, I use this term VERY loosely)? Second--in regards to complaints that Yuno isn't "pure" anymore--Yuno ''is a friggin' psychopath'', so she wasn't exactly "pure" to begin with (sexually, yes; in every other way, ''no''). And third...in this series, schools have been blown up, people have had their heads chopped off, a small child has tried to kill the two heroes with poison gas...and they freak out ''over a sex scene?''

**** I'm sorry, let me get this straight. People called Yuno ''pure''? Have they been reading the same manga I have?! Apart from the mass killing she partakes in, she's snuck into his bed, had him grope her, forced kisses on him, and occasionally goes around PantsFree. At one point, she even asked him outright if he was going to do [[IfYouKnowWhatIMean anything]] to her, utterly hopefully he was. This scene has been a long time in coming, so I can't see how they can rage about it. I for one liked the scene, though I was slighty shocked it was so explicit. It was just enough WAFF mixed with a hint of ManipulativeBastard to be perfect. Plus it was plot important.
***** I think people called her pure because of this quote, and her blushing too. To be honest, if this was anyone other than Yuuno, then I'd baww.

It isn't even like [[spoiler:Minene died at least once]], because we get to see [[spoiler:her short flashback of Deus intervening with her death at the vault]]. Did [[spoiler:the Ninth]] somehow forfeit the chance to win by [[spoiler:breaking her diary]]? Or, what...even...just what happened at that point, seriously!? Did [[spoiler:Deus open small path to the past to stop her from before she broke her diary while Muru Muru wasn't looking, and just drop her in the Hall of Causality where she waited until Muru Muru declared Yuno to be God again]]!? Although I guess the second option isn't very likely since [[spoiler:she isn't seen using her diary after that]].

** [[spoiler:Nope. The Yuno from this reality was never the 2nd to begin with, the previous Yuno killed her and took her place before the game started, and so did become the legitimate 2nd. Which presents an interesting solution to Yuno's dilemma...if she had let the current Yuno become the 2nd, she could have killed her, either immediately or when everyone else was dead, depends on how the diaries work, taken her place, and that could lead to Current-Yukiteru becoming god, with Previous-Yuno still being alive.]]

** Yes, but it was still labelled "2nd". The Watcher Diary labells the ones as who they belong to. Seeing as there would be two "2nd" diaries, it may only of picked up the one that was in use. Think of it like a computer file. If you try to name something the exact same thing, the new one will supercede the old. Furthermore, the diary that 3rd world 11th read was "1st", i.e. Yukki's. Not Yuno's, so the above point still stands. Plus, what you have to remember was that this is two years (or something) before the game had a chance to start, and it wasn't instantly. He only seemed to check it when there was suddenly a big shift in time and space. Getting back to my earlier point, two years ago there was only the 1th's Watcher diary. It stands to reason he would detect it when a new diary popped up reading "1st", when the others presumably hadn't activated yet or at the very least, weren't in use (you can see them circling in the background).

** Yes, but she didn't use that diary except in one specific instance. Yuno #1's diary always referred to Yukiteru as "Yuki"; Yuno #2's diary (and presumably Yuno #1's before the game ended) referred to him as "Amano". Hell, if anything, that just proves my point further--why weren't there TWO diaries with slightly different entries? And also, the Watcher Diary of Mayor #3, had no trouble picking up Yuno #1's diary ''instantly'' after she arrived.

** Going along with this, the only thing the copy has that's related to the original Yuno are the memories thanks to Mura Mura. Combined with the new world's memories and a good amount of time to reflect upon the actions of the original Yuno, the new one is clearly not the same psychotic Yuno as before; KarmaHoudini doesn't apply since the Yuno that you claim to have escaped the wrath of karma was indeed punished by death, and the new Yuno is technically a different individual.

** Yuno's diary predicts what happens to Yuki. If it was someone else who off'd him, even if it was Yuno, no record would be made in Yuno's "Yukiteru Diary". That's assuming his Watcher Diary could even detect the First World Diary considering that, mere monents after Yuno's arrival, she gets another one with the exact same name and code (2nd). Plenty of reasons, esspecially considering Yuno seems to arrive literally at the beginning of the Survival game.

** About the other diary holders... It was shown pretty clearly that they had their own happy endings. For example, the 7th were expecting a kid and most likely married, the 6th's parents were saved and she didn't become a sex slave to an evil cult, the 10th and his daughter Hinata seem to have reconciled. So yeah, they each got a little happiness.

** From about Chapter 55 on, they make it clear that Yuno ''not'' having a happy ending would be counter to Yukiteru's entire character development. You're not supposed to sympathize with Yuno or like her for what she did, but the manga pretty much tells you, in no ambiguous terms, that Yukiteru sees her as a WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds and wants to save her. And technically, the ending isn't even happy. It's [[BittersweetEnding Bittersweet]]. The Yuno we all knew died--the one we see at the end is only a copy.
