* WhatAnIdiot: After Sayaka loses her nerve and doesn't kill Leon, Junko decides to have Mukuro become the first killer. Mukuro is reluctant, but agrees. Before she leaves, she asks Junko if her plan is still have Mukuro escape through a trap door so she can help behind the scenes.\\
'''You'd Expect''': Junko to lie and say that she will, much like in game, then kill Mukuro once she's [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness served her purpose]], especially since Mukuro is already reluctant about going through with the plan.\\
'''Instead:''' Junko admits that she has no plans to spare her sister and will subject her to [[CruelAndUnusualDeath execution]] if she is caught.\\
'''The Result:''' Mukuro realizes that Junko only thinks of her like a tool and [[HeelFaceTurn promptly turns on her]]. Junko spends some time banging her head against the wall when she realizes how stupid that was.

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: Really, the entire story is hilarious with just how desperate Junko becomes. But everytime she tries something, it backfires and we just see her reaction to it get more and more funny. Especially at the end when she inadverently fixes EVERYTHING about them due to the hope growing from Makoto and the others.
* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: Even if it's supposed to be satirical, there's something sweet about the entire cast working past the DysfunctionJunction that defined them in the actual game. Examples include Leon forgiving Sayaka's attempted murder, Mondo overcoming his anger issues, Celestia growing an actual self-esteem for Taeko, Mukuro standing up to her sister, Byakuya softening enough to willingly make everyone's breakfast, Toko quickly being accepted by everyone for her second personality, Kyoko being at peace with her father and not putting mystery-solving ahead of her own safety, Chihiro getting bold enough to become SirSwearsALot, and Sayaka ultimately finding enough validation with her friends to decide against escaping at any cost. It's like the whole universe decided to hit Junko with a CareBearStare.

** In the comments, someone suggested that Monokuma loudly announced whose ticket he was burning when he decided to destroy the group's lifetime passes to Disneyland, which resulted in both the commenter and the author listing off both Monokuma's announcements and the students' reactions. Of particular note is poor Yasuhiro, who is more concerned with the fact that he can't sell the tickets to pay off his debts.

** Additionally, the group opts to remain safe inside the Academy-turned-shelter, protected from the post-apocalyptic world Junko created outside, just as Kyoko's father wanted them to be.

* CatharsisFactor: After all the shit she gets away with in the games, watching Junko repeatedly fail to cause despair is oh so satisfying.

* CounterpartComparison: To ''Fanfic/ThanksKyubey'', a fanfic of ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'' that, like this fic, is a LighterAndSofter take on the original story due to the [[BigBad main antagonist]] not being the MagnificentBastard they are in canon.
