Rance 01:Walkthrough

Introduction
Turn count does not matter in Rance 01.

Instead, what will prevent you from getting character clears, HCGs and mini-events is triggering certain actions that will cause the story to progress, thus losing the opportunity to complete certain sub-quests.

So you should The guide below will highlight expiry conditions with underlining, in other words, those actions which will make it impossible to do or get something after they are completed.
 * save your progress often
 * take as long as you need farming gold and chips (items)
 * sleep to heal up often
 * visit and revisit various characters, since they will often unlock conditions for more actions and events

The expiry conditions are ordered by the earliest they can appear, but some are not always going to be the first thing you'll likely run into, because you're likely not going to want to grind levels before you do anything else in the game... (don't grind... you don't need to in this game!!!!)

Just keep them in mind, while you play the game, and you should be able to see all of what Rance 01 has to offer.

Getting started
Right at the beginning, after Keith explains that you're on a quest to find a cute red head, Hikari, who has disappeared in Leazas, there's a short tutorial that will guide you through some easy enemies and let you pick up some generic consumable items.

Just play through it, get used to the chip mechanics and if you haven't yet, you should take a moment to:
 * Read Game mechanics to find out how the 4 interfaces work (battles, dungeon crawling, city map and ADV)

Leazas
Soon, you'll arrive in Leazas town and Rance will send Sill to gather information by infiltrating Hikari's school for rich kids as a scholarship student. Too late he realizes that she has all their money (and later on, that even as a scholarship student, it coincidentally costs exactly what she took with her).

There's nothing much to do on Day 1, you can waste some time exploring the park or the pub. You should try out some of the actions there. You'll need to use the save and load options, closet for storage and sleeping options at the inn throughout the game, so better get familiar with them The innkeeper Nami doesn't know anything about Hikari, but she does still expect to be paid for the night; Rance puts his sword up as collateral, leaving you weaponless (you still have consumables). The weapon shop is closed in the morning (Millie has a bad case of sleep-in), but you'll eventually want to head over there.
 * First location: When you're ready, make your way to the inn, where you will find a gorgeous JAPANese innkeeper, Nami.
 * Remember Game mechanics if you need more help
 * Unlock new area: When you leave the inn the following morning, Nami will tell you about the item shop, which is now available on your Leazas town map
 * Unlock new area: Talk to Patty, the shopkeeper and after asking a couple times about Hikari, you'll unlock the weapon shop, run by Patty's friend Millie

First talk with Millie
Expiry condition: Asking Millie about the thieves's hideout makes her 1st mini-event disappear Your objective on Day 2 should be to secure the 3 sources of money available in the city. Remember, you have no sword, so you need to come buy something from Millie before heading out to the field: It is highly recommended you use this money to buy 2 red items from Millie before heading to the field. It's more efficient to go for 2 offensive items instead of a shield here because of the shields' longer cooldown times. If you don't want to trust me on this:
 * The first thing you should do when you meet Millie is to attack her. This will get a little mini-event where Patty shows up. Once you ask Millie about the thieves's hideout, you will no longer be able to see this (totally not important) mini-event
 * Unlock new conversation option with Bobza: The more important thing here is to talk with Millie and ask her about Hikari and the bandits. This will unlock a new conversation option at the pub, which is required for the main storyline
 * After asking about the thieves's hideout, you should attack Millie again. This time a different scene will occur where a guard kicks you out of the shop (this is the first of many Millie events that will require you to wait a few days before triggering the next one)
 * 1) Attack something in the park for 19g
 * 2) Ask Sill for money for 50g
 * 3) * While you're at it, attack her to get Sill's first HCG - do this after getting the money
 * 4) Accept the main story quest from Bobza at the pub and get 100g
 * Read about the damage formula (or lack thereof) in Game mechanics
 * Read about levelling rewards in Skills
 * Or just try out a shield, it's a perfectly fine option too

Leazas field
Now, you are ready to head back to the Leazas field and do your first (non-tutorial) battles! Watch out, the further you go in Leazas field, the higher the difficulty will climb. But don't worry too much since:
 * If you die, you can select to restart from the auto-save, which will be the start of the area you're in (Leazas field)
 * If you know you're outmatched and don't want to grind too much, you have an option to run away. It has a 100% success rate... but it will cost a few gold.
 * Look for the green card to get safely back to Leazas town

Kanami's mini-event
Every time you return to Leazas town, there will be a chance that Kanami-coughcough, I mean, 'Mysterious Ninja who is never named in Rance 01' will appear.

If you meet her twice (it was 3 times for me), you can then find Kanami in the park at night. You will get a small mini-event (no HCG) and lose all your gold (so spend it first, or skip the event if you don't care, it won't affect anything later on).

Expiry condition: Enter the thieves' hideout and you will no longer be able to fight Luis
If you don't defeat Luis in the Leazas field road ( リーザス領辺境の街道) before entering the thieves' hideout, he will disappear and you will no longer get his mini-events later in the game, in the colosseum and casino. Not that these are important... and can even lose you an important CG..., but I'll warn you later.

Basically, don't go into the thieves's hideout yet. Defeat Luis (he's in a blue card to the left side, 2 rows after the start) and get back to Leazas town to sleep for the night.

Level up with Willis
On Day 3, you will meet Willis when entering Leazas town. Willis is a minor goddess and you will have to talk to her to level up, once you have the required EXP.

Expiry condition: Use chip "ALICEMAN coin (ALICEMAN銅貨)"
Willis will sometimes give you an item called ALICEMAN coin (first one at level 13). Do not use it for its measly attack. Read more about it on the skills page.

Expiry condition: Use the chip "Pie of undulation (うねりパイ)" and you can't get Willis HCG (unconfirmed)
When you get to level 20 You can then get the pie as a drop reward from defeating a "Mythcorn (ミスコーン)" in the Leazas field. Bring it back to Willis and hand it to her to get her HCG. (You might be able to get another Pie if you use it in battle - unconfirmed - but better to be safe and just keep it for Willis)
 * talk to Willis and she will ask for a "Pie of undulation (うねりパイ)" - Trivia: Pie is a homonym for breasts, so the pun here is undulating breasts
 * Warning: The mythcorn is the A rank unicorn, so you likely will still be too weak to face this at level 20. You can defeat it with good consumables... or just wait, since it's fine to do Willis's events late in the game when you have powerful items and lots of HP.

The Thieves's Hideout
Try to level up and go check out Millie's updated shop. You'll be able to buy a club and short sword, which will both help you with the first mini-boss, Murara.

Now, you're ready to go the Thieves's Hideout!

Expiry condition: Go to the thieves's hideout at noon and you'll miss the fight with the lookouts
This can be a good thing, if you want to avoid a tough fight early on.

Enter the thieves's hideout during the morning or night, and you will fight an extra mini-boss, the lookout thieves. Go at noon to skip this fight when they're out to lunch.

I NET information broker
Ignore its main function to pay 980g for hints to get HCGs (at random) and get various information about heroines... unless you aren't using this walkthrough (how are you reading this...?).
 * New area unlocked: After entering the thieves's hideout and returning to Leazas town, you will now be able to visit the I NET information broker

More importantly, the robot sells some useful consumables:
 * Closet anywhere - Access your closet while in a field
 * Save lion - Save while in a field
 * Weekly hit points - At the start of each battle, while you hold it, you will see how much HP the enemy has. It can be consumed at any time to restore 50% HP

Expiry condition: Pay Murara and you can avoid fighting him
He's an easy mini-boss and you want to see his fight, right? So I'd suggest fighting him instead of paying him off. This should be an easy fight with sword and club.

Expiry condition: Using the chip "Tension shelf (突っ張り棚)" will deny you its closet expansion effect
Come on, it's a shelf, please don't throw it at people in battle...

Instead, keep it in your inventory when you open the closet (at the inn, doesn't work in the castle bedroom) and it will automatically be consumed and give you more closet space.

There are 3 tension shelves in the game:
 * 1st of these in the storeroom on the upper floor of the bandit den
 * 2nd in a treasure chest in the Leazas graveyard area
 * 3rd will appear either from Jericho's confiscated items or from a D-rank treasure chest in the deepest parts of Leazas field

Expiry condition: Use the chip "Miracle Omega (ミラクルオメガ)" and you will be denied all of Miki's events later on
To get the Miracle Omega:
 * you must go to the back of the storeroom (2nd blue card in a row on the first floor of the thieves's hideout) where British will be stuck in his concrete wall. You can't get the Miracle Omega the first time. You have to leave the storeroom, then go again - a new command will appear to search the ground and pick it up.

Expiry condition: Use the chip 250-year sake "(山裂２５０年)" and you will be denied Necai's HCG
Give Necai the 250-year sake to get her HCG. You must also give Necai the wine to get the key to access the bandit chief's room, so try to give her the two bottles at the same time

You get the 250-year sake by visiting to the storeroom on the first floor 3 times. (The one before British.)

Note that you can keep getting more wine every time you visit the cellar on the second floor of the bandit den, so no worries about using that one as a consumable.

Expiry condition: Defeating the bandit chief, Reichardt will cause Necai's HCG and Kanami's park fight to expire
Do Necai and Kanami's events first, before defeating Reichardt.

Reichardt should be another easy fight, he's only slightly stronger than Murara.

Rance being Rance, he'll take advantage of our poor blindfolded Pulptenks by pretending to be the evil bandit chief. You can then try some conversation options to take some gold off her hands (no negative effects). Best of all, the not-maiden-anymore will love you for saving her and will become a chip in your inventory as you head back to town.

Expiry condition: Going to the pub with Pulptenks in your inventory will deny Pulptenk's mini-event
You can trigger a mini-event with Pulptenks in your inventory by sleeping at the inn (no HCG).

Note that as soon as you step into the pub, Pulptenks leaves your inventory, so don't go to the pub until you're ready.

Kanami's fight
This happens if you enter the Leazas city map between 1-5pm, meaning it can happen right after you return Pulptenks to the pub.
 * Unlock new area: You have to fight Kanami to unlock Leazas castle gate

Climb the Castle wall
Once you can go to the Leazas Castle gate, one of the ADV options when talking to Menad is to 'climb the wall':
 * Each time you climb the wall, you will get 1-2 meters higher than the last time
 * You will fall every time, taking height x 30 damage (so around 30 damage the first time, then 120ish, etc)
 * If you climb to the top (20m) then you will get a considerable amount of EXP (but you have to have more than 560 HP to climb the last stretch, and you have to heal up between attempts so as not to die).

Hazuki the cheater
Hazuki will now appear at noon in the pub
 * Betting against Hazuki at the pub is not random. You will always win 1 bet and then lose the next 3.
 * Since you need 8 bets to get Hazuki's business card for later events (important), you should bet against her a 9th time afterwards to get a 3rd win and recoup 200g.

Pulptenk's lust
Pulptenks will now appear at the bar at night.

After your first conversation with her, if you appear at exactly 7pm, you will trigger a mini-event where she is worried about something. You can then buy the Eye Reader at the information broker I-NET and use it on Pulptenks.

After finding out Pulptenks inner desires, go to the bandit leader's room again to get the item "Reichardt's Snake (ライハルトの蛇)"...

To clear Pulptenks and get her 3rd HCG, give Pulptenks Reichardt's Snake, but wait!
By giving Pulptenks Reichardt's Snake, you will no longer be able to use the snake item to do harassment attacks on female monsters.

You can use other consumables to do harassment attacks, so this isn't a big deal if you lose it. However, Reichardt's Snake is a red chip and there's no expiry on returning it to Pulptenks, so it makes sense to keep it around and delay Pulptenk's final HCG (or reload after seeing it).

Harassment attacks give you mini HCGs when you use them against monsters that have the sexual harassment weakness. The first one you'll see is the Pixie fox, which you can go check out right away.

Attack Millie 3 more times with 3 days in between each time
There are 2 conditions to see Millie's mini-event "Millie is being attacked (ミリーが襲われている)" and trigger her disappearance: Important: I don't actually suggest rushing this, take your time, because once you see Millie's mini-event she will disappear and you'll have a time limit of 3 days to save her from a difficult boss-monster.
 * 1) Return Pulptenks (done)
 * 2) Attack Millie 4 times (start counting from the time the guard kicked you out) with 3 days between each time.

When the 2 conditions are met and you visit Millie's store, there will be an automatic mini-event where 2 bandits are attacking Millie.

Leave the store, and Millie will now be missing. Once this is done, the bandits will no longer appear in Leazas at night.

Expiry condition: 3 days after Millie disappears
After Millie disappears, you only have 3 days to find her. Additionally, if Patty has also disappeared, you can't do the events to find her until Patty reappears, so make sure these two disappearances don't overlap.

To find Millie, you have to: Millie will explain why she's indifferent to everything. She was unlucky when she was little, with her dad hanging himself from debt, and her mother and siblings died to sickness. She wished on a shooting star to become happy, and it said: "Let it be so." Afterward, anything that she thinks will bring her harm is forced to avoid her. Every time she was to compete or set a goal, she will inevitably win or achieve it due to this "Fortune".
 * 1) Ask Patty about Millie's whereabouts x2
 * 2) * Note that you will get an extremely strong consumable, the hanger, which you should save for Yulang in the colosseum later, instead of using on the boss (unless you need to defeat the boss urgently... which takes priority. You can get hangers again later.)
 * 3) Go defeat the Swamp Lord in Leazas field (a blue card that shows up after the Monument to the Sage (where you get skills with ALICEMAN coins)

Millie and the haunted house

 * After rescuing Millie, you can now... go attack her at the shop
 * This is followed by asking Willis for advice x2
 * The next event can only be completed later, after unlocking the "Haunted house (妃円屋敷)"
 * See Expiry condition: Adjust the clock

Leazas Castle
In order to get past the castle gate, you will need a Castle Passage Token.

Get the Castle Passage Token
To get this, you'll have to go to the academy, where Maris will appear in student disguise when you try to call Sill. Talk to her and she'll mention that Sill went to the park.

Go to the park where you will find Sill feeding a dog. You will be able to get the Castle Passage Token from her there.

Expiry condition: Leave Sill at the park before getting her HCG and you can't get it anymore
You can only meet Sill at the park once. She has a unique HCG that you can get by attacking her. If you don't do it when you meet her, it will no longer be available.

Once you enter the castle, you'll have a number of new places open to you: You have a bunch of options you can take right now, but let's start with Miki's events.
 * Unlock new area: the bedroom - this place has most of the functions as Nami's inn. The only difference is that you can't expand your closet with a tension shelf here.
 * Unlock new area: the colosseum
 * Unlock new area: the casino

Miki's underwear and miracle omega
Give the Miracle Omega to the rat in the bedroom at night. This will: Miki's events are very dangerous. If you don't yet have > 444HP, go do other events and come back later. However, it's advantageous to do her events first, because you'll get a stat upgrade prize at the end.
 * Unlock new area: Palace room - a little princess appears
 * 1) Take panties x3 in Miki's room
 * 2) * Warning: you will take 444 damage the 2nd and 3rd times, so you'll need level 18 and a heal in between these to survive (disclaimer: you do not get any panties)
 * 3) Ask about panties at Patty's shop and buy the Baltic panties chip
 * 4) Hand the panties to the rat in the castle bedroom at night
 * 5) Talk to Klean, the maid who appears in the bedroom during the day and ask her about the laundry (might have to do it twice)
 * 6) Go back to Miki's room and you will get her panties through an auto-event, from Klean

Expiry condition: Give Miki's panties to the rat and you can't see her game over CG
Once you get Miki's panties, there is a CG for Miki by going to her room and selecting the action to take her panties again. It will not occur once you hand her panties over to the rat. After doing this you can give Miki's panties to the rat and get the options to upgrade Miracle Omega (and immediately consume it):
 * Warning: you will take 999 damage and have to reload, so save first
 * 1) "Barbarian hero (鬼畜米英)" gives +160 max HP
 * 2) "Pay assessment (給与査定)" gives +2 inventory space (recommended)
 * 3) "Juso city (十三本町)" (TsuchiNoKao's note: another contributor translated it "13 main street" instead of the place name in Osaka, not sure what it's supposed to be) triples barehanded combat damage

Hong kong Macao and Hazuki/Aki/Jericho's events
Next, we'll do Hazuki's quest line. You should have already gotten Hazuki's name card from betting against her 8 times in the pub after returning Pulptenks. If you didn't, you still can.

Put Hazuki's name card in your inventory and enter the Casino at night to challenge her to roulette. What you need to know about betting at the casino: Once Hazuki starts cheating, you will be able to unlock Aki's events by leaving the casino.
 * Note that after you enter the Casino with the name card the first time, you will no longer need the name card in your inventory, so throw it away
 * 1) Unlike at the pub, the roulette at the casino is random until Hazuki starts cheating, so you can reload your game if you're losing too much money.
 * 2) It's expensive... have at least 1500g and get 2000g to be safe, before challenging Hazuki because you will have to restart from scratch next time you visit the casino if you can't trigger her cheating
 * 3) After you win 3 times, a mini-event will play where Hazuki plans to cheat
 * 4) You have to play against her once more after that so that she actually cheats

Meet Aki in the park to recruit her - she'll become a chip in your inventory
 * Warning: you will be forced to throw out a chip if you don't have a free inventory slot - doesn't seem to give the option to put in the closet.
 * Go buy "Crime boots (クライムブーツ)" from Patty before continuing (Note that you might have to get the colosseum pass from Menad before the Crime boots become available - see how to get the colosseum pass )
 * Unlock new area: The castle dungeon

Expiry condition: Advance into the dungeon to find Yuki and you lose Jericho's HCG
When you meet Jericho, in the dungeon (continuing Aki/Hazuki's events) you will ask about Yuki. Then you should go ask Menad about Elly (x2?).

When you go back to the dungeon, you only have this opportunity to: To advance in the dungeon, you'll need the "Crime boots (クライムブーツ)" which allow you to pass through the traps without getting booted out. Once you've finished this, go visit the pub at noon and talk (first option) with Bobza to Then go challenge Hazuki in the casino again with the item in your inventory.
 * 1) Ask about boring things
 * 2) Attack Jericho and get her HCG - Jericho's HCG will no longer be available after you advance into the dungeon.
 * Trigger Aki/Yuki's HCG by getting to the blue card "Yuki".
 * get the chip "Anti-monster sake (清酒まるころし)".

The Anti-monster sake will negate Hazuki's cheating, but you still have a random chance of losing (note: might not be random, try red-red-black-black - mention in the comments if that order works or not - worked for me, so if you actually can lost it it's good combination, later I just went red all the time and won every time).
 * Win 8 times to get 10 000g
 * After challenging Hazuki, you can attack her then chase her to get her HCG

Jericho's confiscated goods
Note that you can return to Jericho in the prison at any time to buy a few items from her. Talk and look at her a few times, and you'll get an extra option to talk about confiscated goods, which you can buy 1 by 1. The goods themselves include a tension shelf, if you didn't get it in a field chest (you can install 2 tension shelfs for even more slots so it might be useful anyway).

Aki's panties mini-event and chip
After getting Hazuki's HCG and the upgraded miracle omega, there's a further mini-event with the rat.
 * 1) Talk with the rat until he says 'it would be nice if there were good panties out there'
 * 2) Go to the park at noon - Aki will appear again (TsuchiNoKao's note: Either you have to go a second time to get the item, or have a free slot in your inventory - unconfirmed - but you'll get Aki's panties)
 * 3) Give the panties to the rat to get the ATOK chip, another weapon you can use

Expiry condition: Give Luis 10g and you'll lose Yulang's 3rd HCG
Another thing to pay attention to is that after defeating Hazuki in the casino and Luis in the colosseum, you can return to the casino and look around (客を見る) x2 to find Luis.

Don't give him gold.*

By giving him 10g before doing Yulang's 3rd HCG, you will: * Yulang's 3rd HCG involves her being gang raped by faceless mooks, so if you don't really want to see that i'd give him the 10 gold.
 * you will not get Yulang's HCG
 * her ending will be different (might want to save and do the Yulang bad end route where you pay Luis 10g first, but it's all text, and little CG)

Wondering who Yulang is? That's the next section...

Yulang, Menad and the colosseum
First, you'll have to do a few things: You agreed to meet with Menad at the graveyard at night, so make your way over (bottom right in Leazas town) and you will have a duel that Rance will handle with dastardly sabotage tactics.
 * 1) Go to the colosseum
 * 2) Look at the ranking
 * 3) Attack to participate - Unlock new area: the throne room
 * 4) Go to the throne room
 * 5) Ask the king about the colosseum x4
 * 6) Go meet Menad at the castle gate
 * 7) Talk to Menad x2
 * 8) Ask Menad about her colosseum pass - Unlock new are: Graveyard

Expiry condition: Get the colosseum pass from Menad in the graveyard without triggering all 5 blue cards will deny you Menad's HCG
To get Menad's HCG, and a unique item, you must trigger the boss fight. After defeating the Elf zombie boss: After you complete her HCG you no longer need the Castle Passage Token to enter the castle, so you can throw it away.
 * Warning: Even after defeating the boss, you must have >10% HP, else you will die because of an ADV event. Make sure you're well equipped and bring some healing consumables (use them before the boss fight)
 * To trigger the boss fight, get all 4 other blue cards before the last one "Ruined area (荒れた区画)"
 * If you get the Ruined area before the other 4 blue cards or lose against the boss, you will still receive the colosseum pass, but Menad will disappear from the graveyard and you can no longer get her HCG or the item that comes from her ADV options.
 * 1) Look around once, then loot the elf zombie's body twice - you will lose 10% HP, but get the item "Exotic Twins (エキゾチックツイン)", a useful weapon with attack and defence
 * 2) Ask Menad for the colosseum pass to get it
 * 3) Attack Menad x2
 * 4) Talk to her
 * 5) Attack her again to get her HCG

Colosseum pit
You can now start fighting in the colosseum: I strongly suggest always choosing to the opponent 1 rank higher than you, since you will get money and can avoid missing unique fights in the colosseum.
 * You start at rank 10 - the bottom
 * You have 2 options: a) fight the guy 1 rank higher than you, b) fight the guy 2 ranks higher than you (See all the colosseum opponents)

When Rance gets past 8th place, the 6th place opponent (named Jean) will come to you and attempt to fix the match between you and him in return for gold:
 * Steal his gold x2 to get 800g

Expiry condition: Advance past 6th rank in the colosseum and you will lose access to Menad's mini-event
You must be between the 6th and 8th place in the colosseum rankings to get Menad's mini-event. While you're between 6th and 8th place, enter the castle between 2-4pm and you will trigger the picnic scene where Kanami worries Menad is getting tricked by some brute. Menad is so innocent...

Ninja Master and the Haunted Mansion
Continue fighting at the colosseum until you defeat the Ninja Master (rank 4)
 * Unlock new area: The princess's drawing room - Maris will talk to you about Lia's admiration of Rance who's been rising through the colosseum ranks
 * If you go visit Lia, she will ask that you exterminate ghosts at their holiday mansion
 * Unlock new area: Haunted house (in Leazas town)

Expiry condition: Use the chip "Scroll of Personality Reversion (養老性格反転帖)" will deny you Sill's 3rd HCG
You get this chip by going to the colosseum after defeating Ninja Master (rank 4).
 * 1) After you get it, call Sill at the academy
 * 2) Use the item to get Sill's 3rd HCG

Expiry condition: Fight Yulang in the colosseum too early and you can't get all her HCGs
Depending on whether you use Purslane when fighting Yulang, you will get two different HCGs (very similar ones), so you should save beforehand and defeat her without Purslane first, then reload.

To defeat Yulang without Purslane, note that she always does This isn't all that hard to do if you have the hanger chip that you get from Patty when asking where Milly disappeared to during Milly's event: Best thing is, you won't lose the Yamahiko hanger - reload your game after getting her HCG without Purslane, and defeat her with Purslane (since you have to use Purslane to unlock Nami's events later).
 * 1350 damage/540 defence on turn 1
 * 10 damage/10 defence on turn 2
 * she has 600HP
 * The "Yamahiko hanger (山彦ハンガー)" is a consumable that does 1080 damage and 450 defence
 * Add a coarse guard with 300 defence, and you already mitigate 750 damage with 2 chips
 * Get your other strongest chips and you'll be fine

Note: If you used the hanger to save Millie, don't worry, you can occasionally get the hanger from treasure chests on the first floor of the Haunted mansion, see the Haunted house section.

Purslane and Heidi
To get Purslane and Heidi's HCG:
 * First get to 3rd or 2nd rank in the colosseum
 * An optional event to ask Nami about Yulang will appear
 * Ask Sill about Yulang x2
 * Ask Patty for something slippery. Although it gets added to the shop, it is 30 000g.
 * Meet Menad, an auto-event will occur where Menad unlocks the kitchens area
 * Meet Heidi in the kitchen
 * Ask either Menad or Klean about the thief in the kitchen (both have the conversation, it is the same as their default conversation selection)
 * Go ask Heidi about bread x2
 * Enter the kitchen at night to catch Heidi stealing the bread > ask about purslane > take the purslane (you must have a free slot in your inventory or else it will not appear - might have to select a few other convesration options?)
 * You can return to the kitchen at night to attack Heidi and get her HCG

Defeat Yulang with Purslane
Defeating Yulang with Purslane is easy, just use the consumable hanger chip on the first turn to negate her attack.

You can now do Yulang's other events and get her 3rd HCG:
 * 1) 5 days after defeating her in the colosseum, visit Millie's weapon's store for an event
 * 2) 3 days after visiting Millie's weapon store, visit the park for another event
 * 3) Visit Willis's level up shop, Patty's tool store, and Millie's weapon store (may have to visit the colloseum before going to the shops too)
 * 4) * A battle event with John will now occur if you didin't pay Luis the 10g in the casino
 * 5) ** As mentioned earlier, you can try paying Luis the 10g and seeing her alternate events then reloading, but there isn't really much to see - basically Yulang meets a bad end, but we don't get the HCG...
 * 6) * Defeat him to get Yulang's 3rd HCG

Nami's events open

 * 1) Similarly to Millie, you'll have to attack Nami (2.5% damage)
 * 2) 3 days after attacking her the 1st time, you need to attack her again (5% damage)
 * 3) 3 days after attacking her the 2nd time, and if you used Purslane against Yulang, you need to attack her again (5% damage)
 * 4) * Rance will think of using Purslane against Nami
 * 5) Attack Nami again to get her HCG - purslane must be in your inventory (you need to buy it for 30 000g)
 * 6) 2 days later, a new option to sleep with Nami will appear. There's no CG, but you can recover from any status effects

Getting cleaned by Klean
Finally, the last quest line that you opened up when getting Leazas castle, Klean, the maid in the bedroom during the day in the castle.

I'm leaving this last in this section because the condition to getting Klean's HCG is to To get Klean's HCG
 * get the chip 'straw (わら)' which is one of the random prizes you get every 1000g you spend at Millie's
 * yes, you get a random prize every 1000g you spend at Millie's or Patty's. They give different rewards
 * 1) Have straw in your inventory


 * 1) Talk to Klean
 * 2) Talk to her about cleaning x2
 * 3) Attack her for her HCG

Haunted mansion
After defeating Ninja Master (rank 4) in the colosseum, you will be able to meet Lia and unlock the haunted mansion (see Ninja Master and the Haunted mansion section above)

Before you go to the Haunted house though, you should first:
 * Prepare - the monsters here are several times stronger than the graveyard or other areas you've explored (except perhaps the deeper areas of Leazas field that you stumbled into)
 * Consider using the casino or finishing up the events at the colosseum to get money for better chips, if you need
 * Talked to Patty x3
 * Then attack Patty

Entering the haunted house for the first time
When you start exploring the haunted mansion, you will be stuck on the first floor. You will not be able to go up (barrels will keep rolling towards you) and you will not be able to go down either because it's locked.

As a side note, you can occasionally get the Yamahiko Hanger (山彦ハンガー)" on the first floor of the haunted mansion in chests. You can try to pick it up, since it's a great chip.

Since you followed all the steps with Patty before entering, the first thing you should aim to do here is look for the bookshelf (書庫), which will get you "Flaming tree leaf (火炎木の葉)" to continue Patty's events:
 * 1) Kick the bookshelf shelf
 * 2) Look at a book
 * 3) Take the flaming tree leaf

Expiry condition: Use the item "Flaming tree leaf (火炎木の葉)" and you won't have it for Patty's HCG
Don't use it in battle. Take in your inventory when you visit Patty's shop again, then attack her to get her 1stHCG.
 * Warning: Patty will disappear for 3 days after this first HCG. During this time, you should make sure that Millie doesn't also go missing, as you will not be able to ask Patty about her whereabouts.
 * Once Patty returns (this will happen on the 3rd day, whatever you do), you can attack her again for her 2nd HCG.

Expiry condition: If you haven't done Millie's events yet, you should be doing everything up to talking to Willis x2 before entering the Haunted Mansion, else you could lose access to them
While you're doing your first run for the flaming tree leaf, you should make sure to do the following 3 actions or else you won't be able to report to Lia:
 * 1) Look at the clock (ADV mode)
 * 2) Try to go downstairs
 * 3) Enter the parlour room (応接間). Once you're there, although not required, you can:
 * 4) * Inspect the fireplace x2 > fight against the 3 Shouting fireplace men (さけび暖炉男) > Look at the fireplace again to get a powerful sword
 * 5) * Look at the desk to get the "Kill-me bar (キルミーバー)" consumable
 * 6) * Attack something > then look at the chair to get a club

Report back to Lia
Once you do all the above, you should leave the mansion.

You have to go back to Lia's room to give her an update on the blocked stairs. Once you leave, she'll have Kanami leave written instructions on how to open the door inside the mansion, as well as the key for it. Before you head back, you should: Head back to the parlour room inside the haunted mansion.
 * There will be a small event with ghosts when you leave the mansion - if it doesn't happen, you might not have completed the 3 actions you need to do
 * 1) have a "Talwari (タルワリー)" (from Patty's shop) in your inventory
 * 2) (optional) if you have any, bring up to 2 "Ikanago fish (いかなご)", drops from an "Einstein (アインシュタイン)" - three eyed purple snake monster in Leazas field -  don't worry if you don't have one
 * This time, there will be a new action to look at a slip of paper (last one). Thanks Kanami. Read it and it will tell you how to open the door to go downstairs.

Get the keys from Necai
Once downstairs, you'll see 2 blue cards on this floor for a "Mysterious Presence (あやしい気配)"

Selecting the card will let youu meet with Necai Sis again, from back at the thiieves's hideout. This time, she has 2 keys that you need.

There are actually 3 ways you can get the keys: Make sure to get both the Frog room key (かえるの鍵) and Cow room key (うしの鍵). You don't have to get them at the same time if you're low on inventory space.
 * 1) Pay her 800g per key by selecting to give her the money
 * 2) Give her 1 Ikanago fish per key, if you have them
 * 3) The third method is to get them for free, but is a bit tedious and difficult if you aren't overleved and overgeared...
 * 4) * The first time you meet her, just leave, you won't have to do anything.
 * 5) * The subsequent time you meet her, she'll have some new text, and an option will appear to 'fight with her' - after a quick scene where Rance punches but misses, Necai disappears
 * 6) * Repeat this 6 times and Rance will finally hit her! Necai will fall to the grouund, and youu get both the keys (or the remaining one) for free.

Frog and Cow rooms
The "Frog Room" gives an HCG where a naked girl is being tortured and Rance joins in. The "Cow room" has a similar scene.
 * While this fun stuff is happening you should see a scene where Rance is being watched by Lia and Maris, and that Lia plans on making you her pet.

After seeing the scene in the cow room, you need to go back a second time to get the "Glasses of Misfortune (不幸眼鏡)".
 * Now that you have the glasses of misfortune, you can go visit Millie at any time, with it in your inventory and attack her to get her final HCG

Squid room
Next destination is the squid room (いかの間): That key is for the diary from the ghost girl.
 * You'll see another scene where Lavender (the ghost girl) is being tortured again.
 * Look at the Wooden horse x2
 * Look at the key
 * Take the key

Search for the diary
Next step is to go back upstairs, and upstairs again so you get to the 2nd floor.

You should be able to get there as long as you have the Talwari hammer chip, which you will lose before fighting the gorilla that was throwing the barrels.

Monkey room and small room
Go to the the first room 3 times and you will get the "Princess's shield (妃円の盾)", a powerful chip. While you're at it, try to get the "Tiger Claw (タイガーパー)" which can drop from the chest here. (TsuchiNoKao's note: probability unconfirmed)

In the small room: You will now be able to adjust the clock!
 * 1) Search the knight table x2
 * 2) Search the bed x2
 * 3) Look at the diary - the diary will inform you about the time at which the torture for the ghost girl lasted.

Adjust the clock
Go to the first floor and enter the "clock room", then: And now you're done!
 * 1) Adjust the clock
 * 2) Listen to the ghost girl x3 - she is telling you about the mastermind behind the whole plot.
 * 3) Touch the ghost girl (required to progress the story)

Go back to Leazas castle to report back to the princess: After the scene, you will finally regroup with Sill, who is in the form of an attack and defence chip in addition to a skill, like the ones from the ALICEMAN coins.
 * 1) Report what happened
 * 2) Listen to what she has to say about the haunted house x2
 * 3) Ask about Hikari
 * 4) Attack Lia
 * Note that Yulang will get a power up when Sill joins you, her sword chip will change
 * (TsuchiNoKao's note: Haven't yet confirmed what the skill does... coming soon)

Princess's hideout (incomplete)

 * Before attempting to go after the princess you can do somethings that you have skipped.
 * By this time, if you go to the info store and ask about the new item, the "eye reader" should be available. This item makes possible to read the thoughts of the people, which may come helpful to know what you need to get more H-scenes.
 * If you use "eye reader" on the bar girl, you will discover that she wants the vibrator from the thief boss.
 * Go to the hideout from the thieves and recover it from the boss's room.
 * Give the vibrator to the bar girl in order to get an H-scene.
 * If you give to Patty the fire leaf from the haunted mansion, you will get an H-scene. Also, after that, you can get another H-scene just by assaulting her.
 * If you have not read the newspaper,  the CG about Milli getting attacked by Thieves may never appear, even if you start to read it by now.
 * You will not be able to H Sill now, but you are compensated with her in your team.
 * You can get H-scenes and a power boost from the elixir previously gotten by performing the "Mouse sub-quest".
 * This consists of going to the empty room in the castle at night. There you will meet a human-size mouse, who will make the elixir drinkable if you accept to get the panty from Miki.
 * You can find her in the other room next to the empty room. However, when you attempt to remove her panty, she will manifest her hidden power, which deals around 400 hit points.
 * After some attempts, Rance will suggest to buy a random panty. Go to the store from Patty, ask for the object,  buy them,  and then attempt to hand it to the mouse, but it will realize the trick.
 * From the beginning of the noon (3 o´clock) go to the empty room and trick the maid so that she gets the panty; then, at 4 o´clock, go to Miki room to get the panty. Now, if you made all of that correctly, at 5 o´clock you can go to the Miki room and flip her skirt, in order to get another H-scene. However, be conscious that the previous pattern is the one that will allow you to get the previous H-scene. If you fail and are unable to enter into her room the same day she lost her panty, you will miss the H-scene.
 * Also, Miki will deal 999 hit points after the previos H-scene. If you die, do not worry, you still get the H-scene.
 * You are still able to get the H-scene from the maid from the empty room if you have not.
 * It is suggested to be between the levels 25 - 30 before going to the princess hideout. Nevertheless, if you have the appropriate equipment, you may survive.
 * Anytime you see a Gal Monster you can get an H scene by defeating it with the panty or syringe sold in Patty's shop.
 * If you think that you can beat the hordes of enemies with your current level and do not need anymore, H Willis.
 * At level 20+ Willis will request an item dropped by the Mythcorn(1480 HP, ~720 damage) outside the city. Give this to her for the scene.
 * It is possible to kill the monster at LV20 if you use the one-time-use spear dropped from chests marked with ???, found not far off outside Leazas along with other such items and a couple good shields, aiming to take it out in one attack as surviving 2 at this level is unlikely. Or maybe amass some longswords and reload from the autosave till you get a critical.
 * Once Sill is on your team, head to the haunted mansion and go to the basement.
 * Head into the cat room to find Hikari and then return to the town.
 * Go back to the basement and go downstairs again to find the secret passageway to the castle.
 * Defeat the Jellyfish enemy here and choose the leftmost card next twice to reach the dungeon under Lia's room.
 * Fight Kanami each time until she powers up. She is guarding Lia's hideout.
 * In the hideout, you will have to fight a Golem, Maris, and the Final Boss before the end scenes
