🕸♰ What would happen if Shinigami and Monokuma met? ♰🕸

7/6/2023

So, I was just having a fun conversation with my boyfriend yesterday...

He's been watching me play rain code, and we're at a super-intriguing-mysterious-turning-point right now, so its been on my mind and I just had to chat about it!

So, the question was this: What would happen if Shinigami and Monokuma met?

In terms of sheer power levels, Monokuma wouldn't be able to kill an actual god, right? At first, I immediately assumed that Shinigami would be able to just destroy his ass.

Then, my boyfriend brought up another fact that would give Shinigami an advantage: Monokuma likely wouldn't even be able to see Shinigami unless he made a pact with her.

Given this, we thought that if they fought, Shinigami would have the upper hand.

Unless... Monokuma killed Yuma.

At the point in the story of Rain Code we are at, we know that Shinigami can't be apart from Yuma. I can't quite remember if she would "die" without him, but we know that when he goes unconscious, she is also unable to see.

So, would Shinigami be able to stop time quickly enough to potentially save Yuma from a Monokuma attack?

Would Shinigami even be able to use her power to stop time without first gathering clues to enter a Mystery Labyrinth?

Would Shinigami be able to enter a Mystery Labyrinth and boom-kill Monokuma from there if she and Yuma were to solve the mystery of his identity?

We should also consider this: Would Shinigami simply become a fan of Monokuma, considering all of the people he's killed?

But then I remembered Shinigami's catchphrase: "Death to All Deplorables!"

Also, we know that she condemns murderers no matter their motive.

However, Shinigami could possibly fall victim to becoming a follower of despair. At that point, she would be at Monokuma's beck and call. I bring this up as a possibility considering her references to despair in her boom-kill sequence.

Would Monokuma even attempt to attack Yuma in the first place? From what we know from Dangan Ronpa, since Yuma is outside of Hopes Peak Academy, he would probably be treated as any other civilian and would be disposed of on the spot. 

Or perhaps he wouldn't attack unless provoked. And even then, a new Monokuma would just come back - so Shinigami wouldn't have actually defeated the Mastermind. And I believe she would need Yuma's help to do that.

I wonder if Yuma would die trying.
