* ButHeSoundsHandsome: Inverted. Monokuma suddenly becomes very insulting towards Nagito after Nagito takes over the killing game.

* DeathIsCheap: Nagito reveals that anybody who dies in this Killing Game has their consciousness sent back in time to the first day of the killing game.

* GambitPileUp: Hifumi, Byakuya, and Leon all made murder attempts.

to:

* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Hifumi has it pointed out during the vote on which group of captives to execute that none of the sixteen hostages are friends with him and that he has no stake in the vote. Hifumi admits that it is true, albeit harsh.

* GodzillaThreshold: In order to save the captives, Kyoko recruited Nagito and Komaru for a plan to destroy the Air Purifier and force Junko to come out of hiding to stop her. Since the Air Purifier is actually a time machine, it actually works.
* GroundhogDayLoop: Nagito reveals that he and the other victims were all trapped in one, repeating the killing game over and over as everybody keeps dying and descending into madness. He returned to this timeline to bring the others into the loop, hoping they'll be enough to help him break it.

* SurprisingSuddenDeath: Nagito suddenly shoots Leon dead upon officially joining the trial.

Unbeknownst to him, Nagito managed to get himself an antidote.
* TheyKnowTooMuch: After Byakuya's eHandbook was stolen, he planned on murdering somebody and framing the eHandbook thief. He reveals that his plan was to kill Nagito, the only person who knew that the eHandbook scanner was fake

Added DiffLines:

* BigBad: The existence of a Mastermind other than Junko is revealed, with Nagito dubbing them "Zero".

* GambitPileUp: Hifumi, Byakuya, and Leon all made murder attempts.
* HeadsIWinTailsYouLose: Nagito planned on killing the cast in a mass execution, but when they vote correctly, settles for using a bomb instead.

* SkewedPriorities: While most of the characters are shocked when Kyoko resurfaces alive, Nagito greets her fairly casually. He only notes sadly that he needs to learn how to check for a pulse better.

Added DiffLines:

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Hajime turns out to be the murderer, driven to despair by the Remembering Disease that he infected himself with in the previous trial. Notably, he has not become Izuru Kamakura though, acting more like an evil version of himself.
* CloudCuckoolander: Hifumi becomes convinced that Mukuro's ghost is responsible for the murders, even scattering salt around the real crime scene to stave off her evil spirit.
* DrivenToSuicide: Hina's cause of death turns out to be Radical Six, a disease which forces the victim to commit suicide.
* InformedAbility: At the end of the previous trial, Hajime was allowed to keep one talent and chose to be an Ultimate Gamer to honour Chiaki. Hajime never actually gets a chance to play any video games, as a bitter Nagito points out.
* InsaneTrollLogic: Kyoko apparently believed that the best way to solve Asahina's murder was to move her body to another room and stage it.
* LockedRoomMystery: Intentionally Averted In-Character. Kyoko found Hina's body in one after what .seemed to be a suicide and, believing it to have been murder, moved the body to an unlocked room so that nobody would realize that Hina had died in a Locked Room.
* TheResenter: Even before Hajime is revealed to be the killer, Nagito shows that he clearly hasn't forgiven him for refusing to use his talents.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: After showing up late to the investigation of the real crime scene during the intermission, Nagito is more curious why salt has been scattered around the room
* WhatTheHellHero: Kyoko's decision to move Hina's body and stage it prompts a lot of outrage from the cast.

* PlotRelevantAgeUp: Hiyoko goes through a growth spurt in the timeskip between the first and second trials of the series.



* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Mukuro leaves her room and weapon stash unlocked.



* DeathFakedForYou: Kyoko joins the later half of the trial, having merely been drugged instead of killed.
* WhyDidntYouShootHim: Nagito idly notes that Mukuro probably could've been more successful if she'd just finished Kyoko off after drugging her.

to:

* DeathFakedForYou: {{Angrish}}: Nagito is reduced to this when Hajime claims to have received Izuru's Ultimate Hope talents and chosen not to make use of them, with Nagito finding the idea of doing so to be offensive to everything he believes in.
* BackFromTheDead:
Kyoko joins the later half courtroom towards the end of the trial, having merely been drugged instead of killed.
* WhyDidntYouShootHim: ContinuityNod: [[Roleplay/ClassTrialsCT5 Class Trial 5]] is subtly called back to when a reference to Junko prompts Leon to declare that he'd kill her to end the game if she showed up and Nagito idly offers to assist him in that scenario.
* DeathFakedForYou: In order to frame those the people who entered the Chem Lab as culprits, Mukuro drugs Kyoko and uses a fake Body Discovery Announcement to have her pronounced dead, performing the autopsy herself to convince everybody.
* DetectiveMole: The culprit turns out to be Mukuruo, who performed the autopsy that claimed Kyoko to have died of poison

* InformedAbility: Hajime infects himself with a strain of Remembering Disease that is said to restore Izuru Kamakura's talents while letting him remain Hajime Hinata. He shows none of Izuru's abilities.

* TheLostLenore: Chiaki becomes one for Hajime.
* TheMole: Mukuro seems to have been acting as one, having unrepentantly killed Chiaki to please Junko and proving capable of forging Body Discovery Announcements and Monokuma Files for Kyoko's fake death.
* MoralDilemma: After Junko's sudden appearance, Nagito reminds Leon of a claim that he'd kill her if he ever saw her and tosses him a revolver. With Hiyoko pleading for him not get himself killed for doing it, Leon backs down without knowing that the gun wasn't even loaded to begin with as Nagito hasn't managed to get any ammunition.
* RageBreakingPoint: Nagito reaches his after Hajime reveals that he's received Izuru's talents and decided not to use them. It works to the group's advantage as Nagito suddenly offers up the solution to how Mukuro murdered Kyoko and wraps out the trial out of sheer outrage at Hajime.
* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: After threats to pelt her rotten classmates with gummmies, Hiyoko lives up to her threat and begins attacking Hajime with thrown gummies. Hajime is unharmed by the soft candies and thanks her for the snack.
* TimeSkip: Months have passed in the time since the previous trial, with Hiyoko employing screenshots from Danganronpa 3 as her new sprite set to show off her growth spurt.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: While most of the characters are shocked when Kyoko resurfaces alive, Nagito greets her fairly casually. He only
notes sadly that he needs to learn how to check for a pulse better.

A sinister broadcast reveals that Monokuma has imprisoned the friends of our Killing Game's remaining survivors in two separate chambers, threatening to douse one chamber with acid. He forces a vote to determine which batch of loved ones will be killed, a vote which ends in a tie and a momentary stay of execution for both groups.

However, Monokuma will only let one group go if the other is killed, resulting in a race against the clock as the players seek to either bring down the Mastermind once and for all or break that tie by committing murder.

In the end, an exploded corpse identified as Nagito Komaeda is found in the Gymnasium. Who killed him and how will his death affect the hostage situation?

%% * AngstWhatAngst
* ButtMonkey: Hiyoko takes up this role as she spends a huge chunk of the trial locked up in a crate.
* TheDogBitesBack: After initially trying to get Mukuro to let Hiyoko out of the crate, a few unwarranted insults led Mikan to demand that Hiyoko be left in.
* DueToTheDead: After Twogami dies, Nagito encourages Mukuro to shove his body into a crate to prevent him from smelling. She ends up having to cut him into pieces in order to make him fit into any of her crates, with Nagito supplying a knife to do so. Nobody else even bothers to react to this.
* FaceDeathWithDignity:
** Mikan accepts her impending execution for accidentally killing Twogami without much fuss.
** After finally being voted as Hagakure's killer, Celeste goes out with the same dignity that she did in the original game.

* SayingTooMuch: While denouncing everybody over the idiocy of poisoning Twogami, Celeste accidentally lets it slip that she was the one who planted the knife in his hands.
* SenselessSacrifice: Mikan injects Twogami with a deadly muscle relaxant in order to test whether he'd be able to grip a weapon. She's unable to administer the antidote in time and Nagito is quick to point out that the information is relatively minor and could've easily been gotten by simply asking Monokuma.
