Slowly and steadily, President Coin showed her true colors and proved to be as ruthless, if not more, than President Snow. President Alma Coin was a strict, no-nonsense leader who was willing to let people die so that her mission could be fulfilled, and eventually, Katniss figured this out.
Unlike the main villain Coriolanus Snow, she has no redeeming qualities, care for others, or tragedy. Her honor is up to interpretation and it is unclear whether it was so she could manipulate others or it was genuine.
In The Hunger Games series, Katniss killing President Coin instead of President Snow surprised many. Still, it was because Coin was revealed to be a ruthless leader with her own political interests.
Was President Snow lying about Coin? She remembers that they did indeed promise not to lie to each other anymore, and she realizes that Snow wasn't lying to her about Coin's role in the parachute bombing.
What if Katniss Killed Snow Instead of Coin (Hunger Games Theory/ Fan Fiction)
Who was more evil Coin or snow?
Alma Coin was the true villain of The Hunger Games, with Katniss actually seeing her as more of a threat than Coriolanus Snow. At the same time, it was Snow who was made out to be the bad guy in previous movies, making some question why Katniss killed Coin and spared him.
Katniss searches his eyes for signs of emotion but only finds amusement in them. She remembers that they did indeed promise not to lie to each other anymore, and she realizes that Snow wasn't lying to her about Coin's role in the parachute bombing.
Boggs reveals that Coin had wanted to save Peeta from the arena instead of Katniss. Katniss represents a threat to Coin, and Katniss made the situation worse by forcing Coin to rescue the other victors. Boggs reminds Katniss that she has outlived her usefulness to Coin.
Unfortunately, a second batch of bombs were set off, with Prim being killed in the explosions. Gale was not the one to drop the bombs from the hovercraft, but he was one of the key figures to devise the strategy of double bombings.
Katniss speculates that Coin deliberately sent Prim to die in the Capitol bombing in order to fully gain her trust, but it's never outright confirmed or denied.
Even in the Games, she was trying to save the one she loved, and now that both factors were taken from her life, it made sense that she would question her existence. Additionally, Katniss was in great pain and still suffered from the trauma of the war. Death to her also meant a relief.
Coin wants to remain in power after the revolution, and if Katniss isn't going to support Coin's leadership, then Coin will use her in whatever way she can to give the rebellion momentum. For now, that might mean turning Katniss into a martyr. For everyone's safety, the crew sets up an around-the-clock guard on Peeta.
Katniss blamed Gale for the death of Prim. She would never be able to look at him again without thinking of his part in her death. Gale was the best friend he could have been to her at that moment. He knew her so perfectly to understand this, he knew his chance with her had passed.
Thankfully, Katniss noticed the clues. President Alma Coin presented herself as Panem's salvation in The Hunger Games, but several moments in Mockingjay hinted that she was an even worse villain than President Snow.
The double bomb that kills Katniss Everdeen's sister, Primrose, was designed by two rebels: Beetee and Gale, Katniss's lifelong friend. Previously, Gale had explained that the double bombs are designed to appeal to mankind's weakness for compassion.
Deceased. Primrose Everdeen - Blown up by President Coin's parachute bombs. Messalla - Melted in an unknown pod that trapped him before burning the flesh off him.
She later realizes, after a conversation with the imprisoned President Snow, that President Alma Coin sent Prim to her death (which was caused by a hovercraft by the rebels) both to sway the Capitol citizens to Coin's side by making them think Snow was bombing the children, and to swing Katniss to her side through the ...
That said, it was stated that an emergency election took place after Katniss assassinated Coin. Commander Paylor, a vital leader in the Second Rebellion from District 8 was elected as Panem's new president.
Peeta, Annie, and Beetee vote no, while Johanna and Enobaria vote yes. After some thought, Katniss demands to kill Snow. Once she receives an agreement, she votes yes, for Prim. Realizing something is up (as Katniss would never do that), Haymitch votes yes, too.
What did Peeta take from Katniss after she killed Coin?
Tobias Well, after Katniss killed Coin, she had to expect to die. To be killed from the Capitol, or worse like being tortured like they did with all those other people for example Peeta. In the end we get to know that Peeta was right, taking away the pill from her.
This comes as a result of Lucy attempting to leave Snow during a rainstorm after they plot to flee the Districts, but she learns that he was responsible for killing Sejanus Plinth during the travels.
According to the star behind Effie, Elizabeth Banks, she and Haymitch's Woody Harrelson improvised the scene. Considering she's been adamant about the characters having some romantic connection, it only makes sense that they'd share a goodbye kiss. It's very on-brand for Effie, as well.
Katniss said goodbye to a teary Effie Trinket just before entering the arena for the Quarter Quell in the Catching Fire book, and didn't see her again until the preparations for President Snow's execution in Mockingjay.
