Chiaki and Yukinari (Help)

I seem to be having a bit of trouble getting these endings. I'm not sure what I've done wrong though since everything seemed to be going smoothly before. For example, Shuuki and Yukinari go on a date to the aquarium after some time has passed since saving Yukinari. I don't see him again after that. Can anyone offer some tips (or a guide) for these two?

Scorpio, are you still having problems triggering Yukinari's ending? I also had difficulty and ended up having to dig into the game code to figure out the necessary flags. There are some very specific choices you have to make, and it's easy to make a mistake.

If you are still having problems with Yukinari's ending, tell me:

a) Does he show up in the hospital in Chapter 5? If he doesn't you missed the flag in Chapter 4 where you visit the mansion and tell Yukinari's older brother that you are dating Yukinari. In order to get this option you must hide from the younger brother first.

b) REQUIREMENT: Yukinari must have visited you in the hospital in Chapter 5. What does Shuuki say after the time reset in Chapter 5? If he says something about it being better that Yukinari forgot, then you did not have enough affection to get the good end with Yukinari.

There are certain mementos you have to view in "active" mode and certain choices you have to make to get affection points with Yukinari. Let me know if this is where you are having problems, and I will post the list of qualifying mementos/choices to get Yukinari affection points.

Thanks for the tips. I will make another post if I'm still having problems.

I was finally able to get Yukinari's ending. Now all that is left is Chiaki. I thought I was on the road to his ending, but I haven't seen him since he helped out with Natsume's password and Shuuki decided not to tell him about his adventures because it was decided there wasn't much of a point.

I haven't done Chiaki's ending, but I looked in the game code to see what the conditions are. Note: in cases where I don't specify the name of the memento, it's because I haven't obtained it in-game myself. The game code only specifies the index, not the name.

To get Shuuki to keep his promise to Chiaki, you must fulfill at least 3 of the following:

  • Use Sumire's letter in active mode > pick option "Disagree"
  • On Chiaki's path, there is a memento that lets you talk to him in active mode after he's visited his grandma. The game dialogue goes: "The two of them start walking back to the dorms. Chiaki is being very quiet, however, which defeats the whole purpose of Shuuki coming to see him. Maybe I should say something?" > pick option "Do you want to talk about it?"
  • Use Pamphlet in active mode > pick option "You're so diligent."
  • Chiaki has some sort of puzzle memento(?) that you can use in active mode > pick option "Is something bothering you?"
  • Chapter 4 when cooking > pick option "I need help"
As you can see, most of the flags are based on mementos, some from fairly early on in the game. You may need to access an earlier save file to fulfill the conditions, depending on how you were playing up until now.

If he doesn't you missed the flag in Chapter 4 where you visit the mansion and tell Yukinari's older brother that you are dating Yukinari. In order to get this option you must hide from the younger brother first.

Just as a heads-up to anyone else reading this thread later, this isn't wholly accurate, as it's possible to get this flag by talking to the younger brother, too.

Also, I'm working on a comprehensive guide for the game, but it probably won't be done until a little after the holidays... Hang tight!

Hey Lore,

I tried to get this flag by talking to the younger brother and selecting "a present from your brother," but it failed to trigger the hospital scene. I can see in the code that it's written as $shuuki_story.append("91b") whereas the one with the older brother is $shuuki_story.append("91"). My guess would be that the logic in Chapter 5 is not recognizing "91b" as a valid instance of "91" because they were defined as 2 different story events.

Ahh, I left it as 91b during testing for various reasons and forgot to change it back before release... Thanks for letting me know! I'll make sure this gets fixed in the 1.1 update.

You're welcome! I'm glad that I could be of help.

Also, I just want to say that I'm really enjoying your game so far! Keep up the good work~
