Introduction
This guide aims to be as spoiler-free and as unrestrictive as possible. For that reason, only mandatory choices and choices relating to achievements are listed. Any unlisted prompts you may come across are irrelevant to getting the true end or any achievements.

Mandatory choices are marked as bold, optional (achievement-related) choices are tagged as such.

Bad ends in this game can be quite deceptive; more often than not they only happen long after you've triggered them. For that reason it may appear at first as though picking a wrong choice is harmless; but unfortunately you will face the consequences eventually.

Dungeons & Takafumis is not included in this guide.

Special thanks to the people over at Kazamatsuri[kazamatsuri.org]!
Walkthrough

Optional: To get the "Hell yeeeeeeeah!!" achievement, pick the following choices:
  • "Single-phase commutated series-wound monitor"

"Find her"

Note: The achievement "Living too fast" is automatically obtained on this day.

July 14th

[Talk Event]
During Talk Events, you can freely talk to Tomoyo, Takafumi and Kanako as many times as you like. Picking "Study" advances the story.
  • To get the "*Shake* *Shake*" achievement later on, talk to Tomoyo at least twice
  • To get the "I've finally come to the land of Japan" achievement later on, talk to Takafumi at least once
  • To get the "The Great Detective Tomo" achievement later on, talk to Kanako at least once
Optional: To get the "Everyone was playing?" achievement, pick the following choices:
  • "Join them"
  • "I caught a computer mouse in the sink" or "There are 100 Takafumis"
  • "I became a deity earlier" or "The romance won't stop"
"Go to where the fireworks are"

"Tomoyo's stand-in"

July 15th

"No"

[Talk Event]
  • To get the "*Shake* *Shake*" achievement, talk to Tomoyo at least twice.
  • To get the "I've finally come to the land of Japan" achievement later on, talk to Takafumi at least once.
  • To get the "The Great Detective Tomo" achievement later on, talk to Kanako at least once.

July 16th

[Talk Event]
  • To get the "I've finally come to the land of Japan" achievement, talk to Takafumi.
  • To get the "The Great Detective Tomo" achievement, talk to Kanako three times.
Optional: To get the "The Panda in the Forest" achievement, pick "Work on it together" when prompted. Who you pick to help and in what order you have them write song parts in is irrelevant.

"Substitute for Kanako"

July 20th

Note: If the game has already been cleared once, you get the option of making Takafumi create Dungeons & Takafumis here (by choosing "I do" when prompted). This ends the game immediately and launches D&T.

"Avoid asking him directly", or "Ask him directly" then "Heed her warning"

July 21st

Optional: To get the "A single conclusion" achievement easily, save at the choice here and pick "Give up".

"Power through"

"Tomoyo, Kanako, and I will go"

August 14th

"Refuse her"

@Gosyorenta, yea I got that ending too for my first playthrough.

i got an ending which her family got chaos because Tomo caught by her mother, and tomoyo come over in the night for awhile and back to home, it is a bad ending ?

i'm surprised it backed to the menu right away after this scene...

also, was it ended with tomo arc ? i thought there is a last arc when Tomoya lost his memory...

You make up your own.

Alternatively, the second bad end (pick "Don't go" when you should be picking "Quietly endure" and keep playing until after Takafumi arc) is pretty normal compared to the other bad ends in the game.

How would I get the GOOD end? I honestly hate the true ending.
