Danganronpa V3 Class Trial 2 Guide - spoiler-free walkthrough

Players now fully expect the story of Danganronpa games to take plenty of unexpected turns, and Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony doesn't disappoint in this sense. Some of the leaps of logic will seriously test your Holmes-style deductive abilities, however - and when you hit a class trial, you may find yourself stuck and keen to get some help rather than languishing in the trial for ages. To keep the story moving, we've produced this guide - a complete explanation of chapter 2's Class Trial 2, but spoiler-free.

Danganronpa V3's second class trial gives you a bunch of interesting wrinkles, from a restrained victim to a tank full of pirhanas and beyond, and puzzling it all out can be quite difficult. That's what this page is for - headaches be gone!

What we'll be showing here is what options to select to progress the class trial while keeping everything as under-wraps as possible, avoiding any specific terminology that could be regarded as a spoiler. Keep in mind there will be minor spoilers, however, especially in the Closing Arguments section at the very end of the guide.
