I would pick John Doe, personally. The script has a lot of movement and action going on, there’s three characters, and also… Mikoto favoritism from me lol

I prefer Neoplasm technically, but the idea of seeing Mikoto and Kotoko fighting animated is so sick. It would be hard to watch Es get a chair thrown at them and stomped on though…

Edit: I updated the ranking based on comments here

Just wanted to share because the discussion surrounding verdicts is really interesting to me and I like to hear others’ thoughts.

There’s clusters here; I think some prisoners can be placed into subgroups when assessing their cases.

Yuno and Amane are the most undeniably forgivable characters to me—they’re uniquely innocent. Mahiru, I have less strong feelings on, but I feel as though she belongs towards the top. I don’t think she would fit in the next group (Mikoto, Kazui, and Muu). I could be swayed on her placement though.

Mikoto and Kazui are interchangeable at the moment, with Kazui *slightly* lower due to the nature of the collateral, but that’s based on my theories for how Mikoto’s backstory will play out and can change. They could very well flip in two months. Muu is *bit* lower, but not significantly. I think her situation is similar to Mikoto’s in ways actually, and I could elaborate on that if necessary lol but it would be a digression rn.

I bundle Mikoto, Kazui, and Muu together because they’re absolutely 100% forgiven by me, but they aren’t indisputably innocent like how Yuno and Amane are.

Shidou is also forgiven by me, but medical malpractice (lucidity and intent) puts him beneath Mikoto, Muu, and Kazui.

Fuuta is on very thin ice, but still forgiven. He’s kinda like the opposite of Yuno and Amane in that he’s uniquely terrible among the forgiven prisoners. Nothing about his case is sympathetic at all to me. The previous placements have cases that are sympathetic. Nonetheless, his potential (!!!!) for growth landed him a forgiven vote from me (among a few other reasons).

Haruka is the one confirmed unforgiven verdict from me because of the nature of his murder. I seriously can’t forgive it at all.

Kotoko is very much a “????????” because her trial is upcoming and I’m very willing to hear her out. At the moment, I can’t really forgive her based on what I know, but she could go waaaay up depending on her story.

Kotoko and Mikoto’s placements are in part based on present behaviors that I feel could be indicative of past behaviors, as well as some theorizing.

I could elaborate further on any of these honestly, I’ve thought it through a decent amount…

OK Computer turns 29 today yay! One of the best albums ever. So here, for fun

Ngl this was really difficult and some songs don’t fit as well as I’d like. But I wanted to do this and I tried. Also Mikoto gets Fitter Happier + CUTW because Fitter Happier is an interlude and I didn’t really know who else to give CUTW to

Kotoko as Karma Police and Mahiru as Exit Music are my favorite placements here. And Shidou as Airbag is just amusing to me sorry

Put a lot of thought into this, it’s very important to me ❤️
