Mirai Nikki — Episode 6 //free\\

Her "Escape Diary" makes her a perfect foil to the Fourth. While the Fourth predicts crime, Minene predicts flights to safety . In Episode 6, she doesn't want to win the survival game immediately; she wants to flush out the other diary holders by creating a disaster so large that everyone’s diary will be forced to predict it.

The Fourth’s Justice Diary starts screaming about a terrorist; Yukiteru’s "Random Diary" (which only records his observations) is useless because he doesn’t know where the bombs are; Yuno’s "Yukiteru Diary" is now overloaded with predictions of Yuki dying in various explosions.

He doesn't want to kill Yuki and Yuno—he wants to capture them and use them as pawns to eliminate other diary holders. This is a stroke of tactical genius
