Aah, alright, alright. I knew he made the supplemental rule later, hence the confusion, but I didn't realize that he said they needed to murder without being caught -before- Maizono's death. It makes sense why they'd go to such lengths. I thought that, at that point, they believed they just needed to kill someone.

It's a good thing this thread was made. I was afraid that the game spoilers would start flying around.
Anyways, we've got quite a lot of evidence to solve our first murder case. Spoiler for evidence:
I think it isn't very difficult to find out who the murderer is, mostly because of the dying message, although this could be a trap as well. I have a theory, but I have the feeling that I'm missing something to make it complete. Spoiler for Theory:

Only male students received a tool kit. Female students received a sewing kit. Furthermore, Makoto's kit was left untouched as it is still sealed. For further clues that have been brushed over by the anime, please click on the link in my signature.

Also, thanks for the missing clues. They seem to have left out a great deal of information. I wonder if they're saving it for the trial? Quote:

If the trial itself is given a specific time to reach a conclusion than that will be a different story, but at the same time it'll add the dramatic impact of the "race against time" element just to give scenery a more serious form of context. There's also the fact that MonoBear seems to have an impatient personally and would like to see things end quickly rather than things draw out pointlessly. ie. The DVD's used to get people "motivated" to graduate after no murder hadn't happened during the few days the 15 characters first arrived at the time.

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. ===OT=== 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?

Well, here's my amateur detective attempt for episode 2.
Note that I didn't read the rest of this thread before posting, so if I'm writing something that has already been debunked please don't skewer me. Spoiler for anim episode 1&2 only:
Also I somewhat cheated as I used the additional clues from Klashikari's post. I included those in a different spoiler in case there are purists. Spoiler for with additional clues from Klashikari's post:
There you have it. Now can some Sherlock tell me if I'm on a Lestrade or a Watson level? |

Well DR is definitely sherlock holmes level.
Just that the mysteries are not easy because the detective has uber-deduction skills but because the mystery itself is easy to see through. Thats just my opinion though, others might think differently.
