In Eiichirō's room of corpses, two victims are seen crucified by ropes, in the manner of Chihiro Fujisaki's body.
In one of Eiichirō's pages, a body is posed in the manner of Sayaka Maizono's corpse.
In another of Eiichirō's pages, Mukuro Ikusaba's death scene is seen, and this scene is mimicked when Takumi Hijirihara murders Eiichirō.
Dosya:Danganronpa Killer Killer Chapter 3 Sparkling Justice Trivia.pngThe mask of Sparkling Justice, a serial killer mentioned in Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, is on display in Eiichirō Saiyama's room in Chapter 3. Because the identity of Sparkling Justice is unknown, it is possible that Sparkling Justice and Killer Killer may be the same person, as they both have the same M.O. (murdering other killers), which is supported by the fact that the name of Sparkling Justice in the original Japanese release of Danganronpa 2 is Kirakira Seigi (キラキラセギ). It is unknown if this is intentional or simply a reference.
