The late Hashimoto choice
When Yamato tells you the concert is being cancelled, keep a protected save before the following Hashimoto conversation. Follow the meaning of the answer, not a button number from another language: accept the development for Globalization, or sell to Takumi and support the concert for Rock for the ages!. This is Kleynce’s community route record, not a current-build test by this site.
Community route and comments — checked October 9, 2026
Story progress can depend on a completed repair, a To-Do, and the next conversation. Check all three before treating a quiet shop as a softlock.
Customer callbacks are not extra main endings
Melancholy (Haruhi), Ronin (Kaito) and Ghost in the Frame (Baketsu) track three character routes. The two documented late Hashimoto choices belong to the main story. A character achievement can unlock before the finale, so it does not count as a separate ending. Whether sheltering a character changes individual lines in the epilogue remains open.
Compare the two branches safely
Keep the original pre-choice save untouched. Complete one answer and note the final scene, credits, continued-game state and Steam achievement. Reload a separate copy for the other answer. If this result does not appear, check unfinished story dialogue before changing unrelated purchases or replaying the whole campaign.
Where are tools after the ending?
A current player report places carried-over upgraded tools in the green delivery box, where later order boxes may cover them. This is one player’s post-game workaround; it does not establish a particular ending or universal endless-mode behavior. Use the Tools guide for the safe retrieval checklist.
Happy ending: positive customer routes
In the All Things How customer-route guide, offer Hashimoto a free Pokia repair and ask its history, restore Yui’s Eggotchi data, help the Student with his confession, and support the former Gangster instead of reporting him. Save before each hand-in and follow the later conversations.
Customer route steps
Use the four customer branches below, keep a pre-hand-in save for each and continue to the later callback. The source link describes these positive stories; it does not define a separate official main-ending category.
Choose the positive Hashimoto and Eggotchi outcomes
When Hashimoto brings his Pokia, offer to handle the repair for free and ask about its history. For the Eggotchi request, restore the stored data instead of treating the job as a screen-only repair. These choices open the fuller versions of both stories.
Help the Student and former Gangster
Hear the Student out and help with his confession rather than dismissing the request. When the Gangster's device exposes information that could send him to prison, do not report him; continue helping him move toward legitimate work. These are story spoilers, so preserve an earlier save if you also want to view the opposite routes.
How to know the route is working
Look for later visits and conversations. The positive route is tracked through customer callbacks rather than a visible morality meter. If a key customer disappears without resolving their story, reload the closest pre-hand-in save instead of replaying unrelated shop days.
Comparing Happy and Secret labels
Players may use Happy for positive customer outcomes and Secret for later follow-up scenes. Those labels do not confirm two separate main endings or prove that one unlocks the other. Compare the final scene and version, not only the route name used in a guide.
Safe saves for comparing routes
Before a story-device hand-in, keep a save named for that customer. Choose the favorable response, complete the requested repair and let the next conversation finish. This page covers the first resolution; use Secret Ending only when you are looking for later callbacks.
Missing follow-up scenes
If a customer’s first story remains open, check that the relevant repair objective and hand-in conversation both finished. Shop wealth and competition wins do not replace those steps. The Happy label follows the cited community account; it does not establish a separate main-ending trigger in every build.
Secret ending: later customer scenes
For the later scenes described by All Things How, continue beyond the first favorable answer: check Hashimoto’s drawer scene, Yui’s family scene after Eggotchi data recovery, the Student’s later connection, and the Gangster’s return visit. Keep the pre-hand-in saves until you have seen the relevant callback.
Customer route steps
Continue beyond the first supportive reply and check the named later scene for each customer. Keep the pre-hand-in checkpoints until the corresponding callback appears; the source link below describes these follow-ups.
Hashimoto's hidden follow-up
Offer to repair Hashimoto's Pokia without charging him and ask about the device's history. Continue his later scenes until the special drawer becomes available. The drawer reveals information about the shop's previous owner and is one of the clearest signs that his extended route has registered.
Restore the Eggotchi data
Fixing only the damaged display is not enough for the complete route. Recover the data stored on the Eggotchi and continue until the family-related scene plays. If that scene never appears, return to a save before the device was returned and confirm that the data-restoration objective was completed.
Finish the Student and Gangster stories
Help the Student deliver his confession, then ask the later questions that expose his connection to another customer. Do not report the former Gangster; support his attempt to start over, and help him again when he returns. Both stories need their later callback, not only the first favorable answer.
Customer follow-up observation log
Use the scenes listed here as an observation log, not a mandatory unlock checklist. Record which scenes actually appeared on the same playthrough; an absent event alone does not diagnose an ending failure.
- Hashimoto's free repair and history dialogue are complete
- The special drawer and previous-owner information appeared
- The Eggotchi data and family scene were restored
- The Student's confession and later connection were resolved
- The Gangster returned and received continued support
- A protected save exists before the final story sequence
Safe saves for comparing routes
Start from the latest save where the customer’s first request was resolved. Record the last scene you actually saw, then compare it with the callback named above. Keep an earlier copy before replaying a dialogue so you can check which event changed without repeating unrelated repairs.
Missing follow-up scenes
A missing callback is a scene-level problem: note the customer, last completed request and last conversation. Compare the matching customer guide before replaying a whole run. The source describes follow-ups as a Secret route, but this page does not turn an absent scene into proof of a failed main ending.
