Current thoughts:
Mikan and Sonia gain some respect in my book for what they pulled off.
Shuichi & Yasu's threat level has gone down a bit.
Kokichi is basically a sitting duck at this point and easy fodder. He needs to pray his tribe wins.
As far as the red tribe, I think Himiko is in real danger as no one seems to want to stick up for her in any of the confessionals.
I think Teruteru and Korekiyo are both doing a great job of fitting in this game, so their stock has gone up a bit.

I think Himiko's only ally is Akane which doesn't really help himiko much

Hi, going to steal this thread for an update in a bit so I don't have to make a second thread for this. Just a warning.

Nope. She's basically only gotten this far because she's literally never been to tribal council.
speaking of which:
Only person to go to every TC thus far: Mikan
Only people not to go to TC yet: Makoto, Leon, Himiko, Teruteru, & Korekiyo (and of those only the first three have had the opportunity to be at every TC)

I hope the Mediators win this one! Shuichi has a lot more potential to come back from this strategic setback than the other likely boots do from their failure to grasp the amount of talking required

I also want them to win this one. Shuichi is a front runner in this game even with a setback.
I want him to come back from this stronger than ever.

So, this round was major an important and turns a tribe basically upside down. This warrant an update of sorts. Basically, a + is good. More + is better. - is bad. More - is worse. No theoretical limit, but 5 is where it probably ends.
1. Sonia Nevermind ++++
This shows a lot of important things about Sonia. Firstly, she has her finger on the pulse of the tribe. Secondly, she knows what she wants and how to get it in true princess fashion. It's not often that you see upsets like this so early, but for Sonia this could very well have proven vital to her survival in the game if the Mediators attend another Class Trial, as she was on the bottom of the totem pole otherwise. While this could backslide on her later on, these tribes don't last long enough (and the result of Kingpin's TC was good enough) that it probably won't.
2. Mikan Tsumiki +++
Mikan obviously benefits greatly from this, showing her ability to fight and that she's actually incredibly likeable. While Sonia probably gets most of the credit for this vote, Mikan obviously is a major benefactor and reason it happened in the first place. I'm now incredibly excited to see where future tribes take Mikan.
3. Chiaki Nanami ++
I think I underestimated Chiaki before. She's clearly someone who's very well liked and not dependent on Hiyoko to make it far like I was worried about. This round has been vital to Chiaki's game, and I think we'll be seeing more from her in future tribes.
4. Ibuki Mioda ++
I think Ibuki benefits a decent amount from this, but mostly because of her new position in the tribe. With Mikan & Sonia being close and Yasu & Chihiro being close, Ibuki can leverage more options now than she would have had otherwise. That and her ability to pick out her situation in the tribe (which wasn't as dire as she thinks, but wasn't ideal) is a net boon for her.
5. Nagito Komeada +
Really, he's mostly this here because of the idol. But he also seems to be making inroads on the rest of the tribe, which had me worried for me beforehand.
6. Korekiyo Singuji/Sister +
We finally saw Korekiyo making some inroads onto the tribe. They don't seem inbound for disaster, and with allies in Gonta, Gundham, and Makoto, they've got some heavy hitters in their corner for the future.
7. Chihiro Fujisaki -
This isn't much if a negative for Chihiro, as I don't think her position in the game moves too much, but it's probably a net loss and a bit confusing without knowing Kirumi's PMs.
8. Yasuhiro Hagakure --
Yasuhiro's game takes a hit here, if only because he really didn't seem to be in a position to do much of anything and gave over a lot of power he would have otherwise had. It's unlikely to mean anything though, given how we're approaching swap time and he's still extremely well loved.
9. Hiyoko Saionji --
I think Hiyoko's good first few rounds have faltered a fair bit here. Given how she was the active target of the minority and Chiaki's compounded successes means that Hiyoko's not in a great spot right now.
10. Shuichi Saihara ----
There's not much to say about this one, really. Getting blindsided while on the minority side from a power position can be a tough hand to play into, plus he also lost Kaede. He's now the odd man out, so let's see how this goes.
11. Kokichi Oma -----
I think Kokichi just blew up what little salvageable game he had left with that immunity.

I noticed that Shuichi isn't on your list. I think he should be in the - because he's now gone from on top to in danger.

I think something I like about this is Akane's strategy to be social with Kokichi. She understands the importance of being social with him and if they do somehow avoid TC, he could be a VALUABLE asset to her artillery come merge.

Welllll when you pretty much go with "I don't trust Sonia I don't trust Sonia" and then hand her the power...yeah that's probably not the right move lol.

What I think could be interesting if the pink team goes to TC again, is whether Yasu and Chihiro's doubts about the last vote, and mikan actually liking shuichi makes them vote out one of sonia/ibuki.

Interesting how Ibuki is taking credit for this move when it feels like Sonia fanned the flames.
All around interesting.

The hell is nagito doing on this challenge? Akane and Kokichi are legit the only ones trying.

this challenge is turning into a reading comprehension challenge.
the kingpins already screwed up 2 of the tasks because they failed to follow the directions. they can still fix that but it could cost them if they don't
