It got me thinking, why is it that the detective always 100% believe in the blood letters that's being left behind? Not saying that this is a red herring consider multiple other factors that agree with it, but technically speaking those type of clues don't carry much weight.

In regards to the motive, I feel like whoever wants to kill just want to find the most vulnerable target to carry out the task. Since Naegi saw Maizono's nameplate on her room, it's hard to tell whether the swap happens before or after the murder. If before, then there's a reason why Maizono wants to be in Naegi's room for a particular reason, either for the sword or other tools that she can't obtain in her own room. If after, then the killer wants to hide the evidence that he was targetting Naegi. The killer broke, and that's just that.

In regards to how. The cuts on the sword, the yellow paint on Maizono's broken hand, and the confiscated evidence by the killer, showed that initially they both fought with weapons. Maizono might've be able to put some damage on the killer before the culprit overcame her, grabbed her knife, and broke into the bathroom after her. The fact that the lock was broken is a decent alibi for Naegi really. The crystal ball may be used to have enough momentum to reach the distance since the door is locked for the trash room. As to how the killer was able to get into the room in the first place? I feel like there are still a few missing clues that we haven't discover yet.

I know it's impossible in this setting, but what happens if there are multiple killers for one victim? Moreover, what if the majority of the people remaining killed one hapless chap and overcome the trial with majority power?
