Episode Title:
(Not) Normal Arc: The Junk Food of Despair for Racing through Youth.
Episode Description:
After the group explore the fifth and final floor, containing a botanical garden and a classroom filled with blood, Byakuya questions Kyoko about her identity, but she states she doesn't remember due to amnesia. As Byakuya dismisses this idea and confiscates Kyoko's room key, Makoto is given the responsibility of looking after a survival knife that Toko found. Later that night, Kyoko, who had managed to obtain a mysterious key and the details about Mukuro from the headmaster's office thanks to Sakura breaking down the door, asks Makoto to keep Monokuma occupied while she goes off to investigate the dorm building's second floor. As Makoto comes down with a fever as a result of staying up all night, he has a dream stating he is supposed to stay in Hope's Peak Academy instead of escape from it, before witnessing a masked person wielding the survival knife, followed by Kyoko telling him something he can't hear. Waking up the next morning to discover the knife he had been keeping has gone missing, Makoto heads to the gym where everyone else is disassembling a broken down Monokuma unit. Whilst looking for a way to break into the headmaster's office for answers, the group discover a corpse in the botanical garden resembling the masked attacker Makoto saw. Before they can remove the mask and identify the victim, a bomb goes off, torching the corpse and leaving it unidentifiable by the time they put the fire out. Finding a key to the data processing room, the group are confronted by a fully working Monokuma, who reveals all their actions are being broadcast live to the outside world. To make matters worse, a class trial is to be held for the corpse they found, which is revealed by Kyoko, who is alive and well, to be that of Mukuro Ikusaba.
