I've said this before, but even if you believe someone is innocent, it is entirely possible for them to be a killer. If Rosa (or Genji) is NOT the killer in the First Twilight, they can still kill someone in self-defense, or out of an earnest (or even irrational) suspicion. Therefore, you can argue that Rosa suspected she was being set up to framed and took steps to keep herself safe (faking the chapel lock, getting only one gun for herself, collecting the keys) while seeking out the real killer. If we posit that the killer is one of the other people on the island (excluding the six FT victims), then the fact that everyone else turned up dead except Rosa, Maria, Battler, and Genji means that the killer MUST have been killed by an innocent party, unless we believe that Rosa or Genji was the primary murderer. But assume they aren't and look at what happens: At the end of episode 2, no one who is still alive is a murderer (or THE murderer, anyway).
Regarding Genji's eyesight: The magic scene in ep2 could perhaps be a hint. He seems to react with unimaginable speed and senses, but is it possibly a hint that Genji operates primarily through hearing? This would make it easy for him to get around (he has the layout of the mansion memorized and can probably see a little bit), make him capable of recognizing people reasonably enough, make him more perceptive to sound than other characters might anticipate (giving him certain advantages), but less perceptive to seeing something (such as a culprit sneaking right past him silently, or at a distance).
This should be easy to prove: Does Genji ever behave in a manner which suggests he cannot recognize someone or something before hearing them speak? Does he ever appear to Battler WITHOUT announcing his presence first? Does anything suggest Genji might have limited eyesight, such as the way he behaves or how he reacts to the appearance of a murderer or murder scene or something? And likewise for any evidence that his eyesight is fine.
