Events
Makitsuki's Events
| Spoiler warning: Plot or ending details follow. |
|---|
A Long Way Down
This event contains flashing images.
At least one effect must have been obtained.
There's a random chance that, when getting into bed in Makitsuki's dream room, she'll be teleported to a seemingly infinite road. Walking left for a couple of moments, then turning back right will transport her to a grey abstract place. Going up to the edge of this place shows an unreachable girl whose face is hidden standing in front of Makitsuki. After a brief cutscene, Makitsuki will be transported to a dim hallway. Going north will bring her to a more winding area with chasers.
North-west of where you enter is a door that can be entered. Entering this door then going down the stairs will bring you to a blood-stained hall. Reaching the end of this hall wall cause a brief cutscene to play. Makitsuki will wake up immediately afterwards. This will summon chasers across the dream world, and will also unlock the door in the 5th floor of the Mansion.
Going right immediately while on the road results in her being teleported in one of the classrooms in the School.
Small Bird's Journey
Small Bird effect is needed.
Enter the light yellow door to Flower World. Go north-west and enter the brown doorway. Keep going right down the stairs to enter the School. Go to the rooftop and interact with the right-side wall while you have the Small Bird effect equipped and are flying. Makitsuki will fly off-screen and the event will start. Pressing X will end the event.
Changing Menu
Enter the light blue door to the Spinning Blocks World. Go south-east and enter the small blue building. Once inside, go right and interact with the NPC at the desk to change your menu layout.
Beast of the Supply Room
Square Bar effect is needed.
Enter the light yellow door to Flower World, and head over to the brown doorway north-west of the entrance, then go all the way right to enter the School. Go to the lowest floor and enter the door with the green sign. Go left, up, left, up, then up, and climb the ladder. You will encounter a vaguely-feline cycloptic creature at the top of this area. There is a 1/64 chance, that if you attack the creature with the Square Bar, the music will stop with the creature being brutally slain, and the area having a pink tint. From here, if you exit the area, Makitsuki will be accosted by two long, bloody arms, taking her to a small, bloody, inescapable room with an eye above, gazing at her. By using the Bonfire effect, this area will have a bright glow.
- Be careful when performing this event, as it is detrimental to advancing towards Act II.
Act II
Grated Hair effect is needed.
Certain tasks in the first act increment Makitsuki's SP, represented by the blue gauge in her stat card on the menu, which represents progress for these set of tasks.
The first steps are fulfilling the Long Way Down event, then obtaining the Grated Hair effect.
From there, return to the Apartments and interact with the girl who has granted you the Grated Hair effect, who now bears Makitsuki's hairstyle at this state. Return to Makitsuki's dream room, and flip the lights repeatedly, as there is a chance that this same girl will appear on the upper deck of Makitsuki's bed, feeling down. Interact with her once that happens, then leave the Grated Hair effect in the storage area, accessible from the balcony, and re-obtain that effect from the Apartments.
Perform the same steps in letting the girl appear on her bed in Makitsuki's room, who will then have a livelier disposition. Interact with her afterwards for her to move her feet about. Repeat the cycle of leaving the Grated Hair effect in the storage area and obtaining it from the Apartments thrice, until you have 10 SP, then follow the directions to triggering the A Long Way Down event, with the Grated Hair effect with you. In doing so, instead of making your way to the end of the cliff, you will be taken to a white space, where going north will let you encounter the girl whom you have been encountering thus far. Interacting with her will make the screen flash, sending you back to Makitsuki's dream room, where you now assume control of her, whose name is revealed as Sakiyuki, thereby starting the second act.
In Act II, waking up no longer sends you back to the real world, as doing so takes you back to Makitsuki's dream room, alternating the current player character as well. Interacting with the table, which now has a paper and drawing materials, lets you save the game.
