This is my first guide.
I decided to create this guide after completing the game and not finding a comprehensive guide here on Steam.
What I wrote is based on my direct experience and research done online based on the experiences of other players.

Chapter 2
The Real O.G.
Go to Hokumon Chō and listen to the entire Taiwanese traditional folk singing performance where the peoples are playing.

Chapter 4-5
Talk to the Fist
Steal Her Away
At the end of chapter 3, A-Guai ask you to come visit here later. You can visit her in chapter 4, and begin her sidequest. After getting some things for her, she will chase you away. Speak to master Hu (the cook near the restaurant), but he will not tell you what's wrong with A-Guai. You have to get for him a "Jiangyue Lou Restaurant pamphlet", which can be obtained completing the sidequest for the thief at the train station. When you reach the train station, you will likely board the train and continue the story, but you can easily return to the station in Chapter 5.
After you take the pamphlet to master Hu, you can return to A-Guai and make your choice: if you chose beat you will get the Talk to the Fist, if you chose trick you will get the Steal Her Away achievement.
You can get both in one playthrough, but you must chose beat FIRST. You will get the first achievement and when you return you can pay 100 yen to make A-Guai return and then make the other choice.
Some people reported that you have to get the object from the first boss to get the "trick" option.
Chapter 5
Captain Mustache
During the fifth boss fight, keep your ally alive. It's pretty simple, but if you fail you can replay the boss (using the relive memory option) and still get it.
Chapter 6
Coward
Fight Fire With Fire
At the beginning of chapter 6, Li Hong will start threatening Uncle and Auntie Niu in Zhouzi Village (the old couple on the right of the village). When you get closer, Tianding will automaticaly speak to them and give them some money. If you exit and return to the vilalge Li Hong will be threatening them again about the source of the money. If you approches you get the option to beat him or trick him.
If you chose to beat him, he will flee and you get the Coward achievement. If you exit and return again to the village some guy will say that the couple has been arrested. If you exit and return one more time the Li Hong and the couple will be there like nothing happened. You can then chose to trick Li Hong and get also the Fight Fire With Fire achievement.

User Syrel reports that in order to choose the "trick" option you must have already completed A-Guai's quest with the "trick" option (Steal her away achievement) to obtain the necessary costume.

Dispel Rumors
When you return to the city in chapter 6, Ching Feng will be around the Eirkaku Cho, Hokumon Cho, and Taihoku Station areas, spreading rumors that you betrayed the people. If you attempt to approach him, he will run away.
In order to catch him, you need to help at least 3 beggars (in the village or on the rooftops of the city). Once you approach again Ching Feng, they will block his escape and capture him.
Completion and endings achievements
Demon Slayer
Buy all the weapons from the blacksmith in Minato-cho. There are 3 weapons, the last (the Demon Slayer) should be around 568 yen.

Buy all the bun from the cook until you reach the maximum of 9. Each purchase increases the price of the next one.

Sewer Rat
Urban Explorer
Tour Guide
Tomb Raider
Find all of the treasure in each of the dungeons. You will get many of them automatically, but some will be hidden. Look for shadowy wall and explore all the routes. You can replay a dungeon to get the ones you missed and you can equip a talisman ("Detective") to find them more easly.
I used this playlist to find them all.

Taoist
Get all the 28 talismans. 12 of these can be obtained from enemies: using the Red Stash to steal the weapon has a chance to obtain a talisman. The others can be obtained by completing all sidequests or by progressing through the story as normal.
You can equip a talisman that improve the chance and replay the dugeons to fight more enemies to get these talismans.
Talisman you get from enemies:
  • Staff (bandit with staff)
  • Iron Axe (bandit with axe)
  • Stone (bandit with stones) - appears only in sewers (requires verification)
  • Fire Bomb (bandit with granade)

  • Baton (cop with baton/blackjack)
  • Sabre (cop with sabre)
  • Pistol (cop with pistol)
  • Shield (cop with shield)

  • Rifle (military with rifle)
  • Cannon (military bazooka guy)
  • Thunder bomb (military granadier)
  • Iron Fist (military with knuckles) - appears on the train or temple
Other Talismans:
  • Detective
  • Good Fortune
  • Harden
  • Lucky Charm
  • Miser
  • Rejuvenation
  • Satiation
  • Shadow Endurance
  • Shadow Master
  • Shadow Strength
  • Strengthen Attack
  • Strong Will
  • Triple Jump
  • Unbreakable
  • Weapon Damage
  • Weapon Durability

Collector
Get all the 145 treasure. 61 of these can be obtained by finding all the treasures in the dungeons, 6 by stealing them from each of the bosses. Another good number (about 40?50?) are received from beggars by giving them money (initially 3 yen, later 7 yen and finally 25 yen each). The rest are obtainable as rewards from sidequests or around the city. Some are on the roofs in the city, to reach them as far as I know you need to equip the triple jump talisman.

Not Today
Get the good ending. For what I know and read, you have to complete the 4 sidequest that give you the following achievement:
  • Steal Her Away
  • Captain Mustache
  • Fight Fire With Fire
  • Dispel Rumors

The Hero of the People
Complete the game on hard difficulty without turning down the difficulty. The game is not very hard, you will die some times and a lot more with the boss, but it's very doable.

The Legend
Complete all achievements.

Fire bombs comes from bandits in sewers (for example), thunder bombs are from military. Anyway, great tutorial! :D

Thanks! I'll add it to the guide.

Additionally, for the sake of those figuring out what Weapon Talismans they missed, they are
Baton, Axe, Staff, Sabre, Rock, Firebomb, Pistol, Rifle, Bazooka, Grenade, Shield, Brass Knuckles
Axe, Staff, Rock, and Firebomb only come from vagrants, and Brass Knuckles don't show up till the Train, everything else comes from cops, Baton, Sabre, and Pistol can be found in the Sewers, everything else is Military Factory or later

To get "Fight Fire with Fire" you first need to do "Steal Her Away" since thats where the Furuyama disguise is acquired
