Going into this with the thought that they are trying to actively go out of their way to limit repeat victims and survivors:

Obligatory Peko will survive bc I love women. But fuyuhiko is DEAD. Common prediction, nothing new.

Souda and Sonia are dying, not fully convinced that they off each other, as they might stray away with obvious victims and culprits. But if Sonia is dead, Gundam is a 1000% a survivor.

Same with akane and nekomaru. I think akane will be a culprit because I really can not envision her as a victim. Also I need her to have a crazy execution that increases her popularity by tenfold.

Mikan as a survivor because I can't really see an interesting plot with her as the victim?? And also they might do something with her in trial 6 given how she's portrayed to be closer to junko than the other remnants (except izuru).

Teruteru as a victim, sorry teruteru fans but I doubt we'll get repeat culprits and I think kodaka knows if teruteru survives the majority fandom will kill him.

Imposter as a culprit bc I wanna see an execution with them. That's it.

My copium that ryoko shows up in 2x2 given the alleged (second hand info) mentions to dr0 in the interviews. Also because junko is in the nwp with them and we SEEN her memories of dr0 leak out as white noise during trial 6.

Weak synopsis I ripped from a dm:

"Ig it's more of a magical girl ryoko AU since junko is the persona she turns into, but it's called Rising☆Despair. Ryoko is just a normal perfect girl who has spent her whole life working towards having her dream of a perfect life with her crush (Matsuda #imamatsushimafreak) and her sister. However she lives in a world terrorized by monsters of pure despair and destruction, their only savior being a Magical Girl and her trusted rabbit companion (Chiaki and usami). But that has nothing to do with our heroine! Until, while thrifting for a date outfit she stumbles across a pair of bear shaped hairclips, immediately drawn to them. She later regrets her purchase as the Master of Despair shows himself to her and claims that she is his Ultimate Despair and he has waited millennia for her. But not our Ryoko! She has a study date! And TWO exams this Friday!! It's not until a villian too strong for the beloved Magical Girl that has protected them for years threatens to hurt Ryoko's loved ones that she uses the Ultimate Despair to become Rising Despair!"

Happy Valentine's Day!!
