The lone survivor is a girl she met on the way there, a mysterious 13 year old named Kyouko Kirigiri.Solving the case, Samidare and Kirigiri become friends. However, things are much more than they seem, and soon the two are dragged into a confrontation with the Committee of Salvation for Victims of Crime, an organization that wishes to grant salvation to those who have been wronged by crime itself.

Anyone Can Die
 Danganronpa Kirigiri / int_1237828f
comment
Anyone Can Die: Played with. While there are many deaths, most of them are of the murder victims, who, with the exception of the Norman's Hotel case, get very little characterization or are outright Posthumous Characters. Starting with Volume 3 (where the cast grows considerably), the deaths of characters the readers become familiar with are a lot less common.

In Volume 3, Lico is actually Rei Mikagami. The ending also heavily implies that Fuhito has been Dead All Along and has been impersonated by Shinsen for months now.

Late-Arrival Spoiler
 Danganronpa Kirigiri / int_5f3bb274
comment
Late-Arrival Spoiler: The series openly gives away the nature of Kirigiri's talent in the book. Not that it was hidden much anyway since Trigger Happy Havoc. The series also does this to itself. The cover of the fourth volume depicts three characters who were introduced in a case in the previous book, which had four suspects, one of whom was the culprit. While no direct visual image of the characters is shown there, enough information is given that the reader can match them to the fourth volume's cover, and the identity of the culprit (Korisu Kakitsubata) becomes obvious through exclusion.

The Reveal
 Danganronpa Kirigiri / int_6b2b3b59
comment
The Reveal: Frequent: The end of Volume 2 reveals the chairman is Mikado Shinsen, the final 000 detective. In Volume 3, Lico is actually Rei Mikagami. The ending also heavily implies that Fuhito has been Dead All Along and has been impersonated by Shinsen for months now. Several are given in the first portion of Volume 4; the body Samidare found isn't of Fuhito, but of Kirigiri's maternal grandfather, Shinsen was Fuhito's former student who was set to be the heir to the Kirigiri family before Kyouko was born and the culprits in the Palace of Locked Rooms aren't killed, but taken safely to Ryuuzouji's castle, with him even paying debt.

Breather Episode: After the despair and utter carnage of Volume 2, Volume 3 is much lighter. Much of it is less extreme than the previous book, the main characters' lives aren't in constant danger, there's a decent amount of light-hearted humor and very few characters actually die.

Absurdly High-Stakes Game/Deadly Game: How the Duel Noirs play out, with a battle between detective and culprit and massive amounts of money on the line. Leaning more towards the former with Norman's Hotel, as the participants must take part in the "Right of Detective". It is revealed that there is indeed a serial killer loose in the auction house, and the detectives must figure out who it is. For every night that passes, someone will be killed off. If a detective wins the "Right of Detective", then they will be safe from the serial killer for the night. If you survive, then all of the money you have left will be yours.

comment
Continuity Nod: Despite not being featured, Hope's Peak is referred to quite a bit. Samidare even says she chose to not go there despite having the ability to because she wanted to be a detective. When it's revealed that the fourth 000 detective is a Master of Disguise, Kirigiri makes a reference to the SHSL Imposter. Tsurugi Hitomoshi, one of the hitmen encountered in Volume 3, is a Hope's Peak graduate. When confronting him about possibly being Shinsen Samidare is given by Jin a photo of him with a young Kirigiri. The description clearly labels it as the same photo that's in his office in the first game.

Ten Little Murder Victims: The motif of the of Norman's Hotel case, which involves ten people, including Kirigiri and Samidare, who get imprisoned and killed one by one each night. It seemingly ends as the culprit (Yozuru) is caught, only for Nanamura to turn traitor and kill nearly everyone, followed by him committing suicide.

Great Detective: Given the Detective Library is a massive database for all detectives, these show up a lot. The top, however, are the four who achieved 000 status, those being Gekkan Ryuuzouji, Johnny Arp, Rei Mikagami and an unknown fourth. Volume 2 reveals the fourth is the Big Bad and Master of Disguise Mikado Shinsen, with Ryuuzouji and Johnny working under him. Volume 3 subsequently reveals Lico to be Mikagami, though as it turns out, neither is his real name.

Big Sister Instinct: A constant and important fact. Samidare as the series goes on becomes more and more protective of Kirigiri to the point of sacrificing herself if necessary, the result of failing to protect her own sister years ago. Indeed, the confrontation with Hitomoshi shows Samidare is willing to kill to protect Kirigiri.
