So, as Chapter 3 has not been finished yet on any LPs I've found, I've decided to start a thread for us to theorise who is the culprit of Chapter 3.

Firstly, let me mention the suspects:
Now, me and a friend have many theories as to the identity of the killer from Chapter 3. We have basically ruled out Nanami as a suspect, as she is seen as the Kirigiri of this game.
The other suspects are as follows: Kuzuryuu, Gundam, Sonia, Owari, Komaeda, Souda, Tsumiki, and Nidai. Ibuki and Hiyoko can also be included in any theories involving two culprits.
Each of these suspects can be dropped into categories:
Despair fever (therefore unlikely): Owari and Komaeda (and Ibuki)
Seen during events (therefore unlikely): Kuzuryuu, Tsumiki and Gundam
Not seen during events (therefore suspicious): Sonia and Souda (and Hiyoko)
Absent (therefore unlikely): Nidai

Theories me and a friend have come up with ranges everything from Nidai's recovery and taking his injury as an excuse to kill them, to Tsumiki pulling a Celes and being amazing at acting.
Between the two of us, we have noted that pretty much all of them could be a culprit, including Nanami, in at least one of our theories.
Everyone seen during events could be a murderer if someone decided to do some body-fiddling like Togami in DR1, and even Nidai, however unlikely, could have slipped away from his ward to kill them if he recovered fast enough. He will be suspicious if he turns up during the investigation stage at any point.
Now, obviously this is made to replicate two things: the movie monobear played in the cinema, and the Chapter 3 murders of DR1. The latter strongly hints at there being two culprits, however this could be a giant red herring.
The former is more interesting. Personally, I think it hints that Souda may be a third victim. Although it is unlikely they want to kill off four characters in the same chapter, I can't help but feel the 'tin-man' and 'turning it into a heap of metal scraps' has something to do with his SHSL ability. I have a feeling he's gonna be important in the rest of this chapter, as either a third victim (if there's two culprits) or the culprit.
Despite this my top suspect is Souda, due to the following things:
Owari - Despair fever, too teary (due to despair fever) to commit murder
Komaeda - Despair fever, too obvious a killer (in the same way as Genocider Syo was in DR1)
Kuzuryuu - He's just reformed
Tsumiki - Too cute, too innocent, just could not be a killer
Gundam - Seen during events, helped out in investigation
Sonia - Too innocent, too righteous
Nidai - He's away (he will quickly rise to one of my top suspects if he turns up before the trial)

You can never rule out anyone as a suspect just because they seem like the main character!
We need to get more members. You might want to try posting this link on Tumblr. I'd like to participate, but I know some spoilers, so...
