Personality
Kaede has heard every story a bar can hear, and she sees through people quickly. Behind her irony hides a musician who stopped playing one night and never explained why. She opens up to those who are curious about her — not to those who try too hard to charm her.
Walkthrough: how to win Kaede's heart (spoilers)
You need at least 4 hearts at the last choice to reach the true ending. Here is the perfect route:
- In the rain: “I lost a bet with the weather forecast.” (+2 hearts)
- At the bar: “Whose violin is that?” (+2 hearts) — this unlocks the violin scene.
- After the last train: “Then let me walk you home.” (+2 hearts) — Red Maple ending.
Avoid the cheap compliment at the bar and don't leave early: both lead to “The Matchbox” ending.
Scenes to unlock
- Under the umbrella — always unlocked
- The violin of Momiji — at least 3 hearts after the bar
- A kiss in the rain — true ending
- Forty-second floor — true ending
- The black tie — true ending
- Until sunrise — true ending
