True Love '95 Guide v1.8 ======================== By Incinerator (incinerator888@excite.com) NOTE EMAIL ADDRESS CHANGE!!! http://www.angelfire.com/nt/incinerator This IS NOT a walkthrough. It is designed to give pointers for the game and present the main areas where you can score 'points' with the girls. Think of this as a 'recipe' for getting the girl you're interest in =). If you want a walkthrough, see Vendetta's True Love Walkthrough for a step-by-step, day-by-day procedure to get nine of the ten girls in one run. Personally, I think it's more fun with the guide, replay the game over and over, but that's my opinion :). This game is SO complex! You could see smoke coming out of my head trying to put together this guide! Being complex, the information in this guide may not be 100% correct. Please send comments and corrections to the above address. Note that this information was mainly ripped from the game and later tested. However, due to complexity, it's extremely difficult to test every single possibility (hence, the high replay value). First revision was completed early morning June 28, 1999. 'Debugged' early morning June 30, 1999. Uploaded early morning July 1 (Happy Canada Day!). Current revision uploaded late evening April 2, 2000 (first update of the year!). Want to find the H-stuff quick? Search for '(lay)' (not the potato chips!). (lay) doesn't always mean it's automatic, though. 0. Table of Contents ==================== 0.5 Quick Questions FAQ 1.

Advanced Tips 13. Tidbits 13.5 Making A Difference 0.5 Quick Questions FAQ ======================= * you CAN'T get Akane (the girl in front of the hotel) * you CAN'T walk around the festival with anyone else but Mikae * ALL characters appear to be available in ALL modes... just that it may be more easy or difficult to get that particular character, since the amount of attributes you get in each mode differs with the mode. 1. General ========== * the girl(s) you lay during the game will be the ones which you can successfully choose at the end (except Anze if your passion isn't high enough and Yumi if you didn't keep your scholarship up?) * always say 'I don't regret it' after being laid if you're chasing that particular girl. * although it's not always necessary, make sure you have a gift for the end of the game to give to your True Love. It's added to the 'points' that girl has. 2. Notes ======== * default name is Daisuke if you don't punch in a name. * the first time you WORK, you'll see Remi's father. * the next time you WORK (or a few times after), Toshio'll drop by to bother you. * Gods of education, strength, art, beauty, and pleasure will visit you in your dreams if you work hard in their disciplines (ie: do that particular thing all day for a few days). Some may not appear in character types outside normal or particular ones. * Gods of education, strength, art, beauty, and pleasure appear only ONCE or not at all during the game. * Gods generally give you a stats boost of about 20 and reduce fatigue. * maxing out your stats (ie: putting the same thing two or three times) sometimes isn't a good idea, since it takes time and after the god's visited you, it's back to the normal 2-3 pts per time spent. * God of luck leaves you an envelope on the ground of 10000 yen, which is the first out-of-the-way step needed to pursue Arisa. * God of games will visit in your dreams if you played the game at the PC club during the festival. * the type of character you have from that beginning affects the way that points come to you, as well as your max limits. * the unusual things you find during shopping can help increase your stats (see Items section). * don't play BlackJack. It's rigged so you'll usually lose when you double up. * Red Bracelet unusual object 'unrigs' the games for the most part (you win 2nd in the lotto if you buy a ticket). (get a lotto on the June 26th with red bracelet and you'll win First Prize. I did this and it won 6 out of 7 times, the 7th time being Second Prize. --Cevn McGuire). * fourth slot in the unusual items shop changes each month (see Items section) * fortune teller shows up after shopping if you spend a lot of time in the back streets (browsing or otherwise). * it's only possible to get the following grades: no.1, no.13, no.131, no.185, no.194. * lottery first place is 50000 yen, second is 10000 yen, third is 5000 yen, fourth is 1000 yen, and fifth is 100 yen. * try to avoid doing something two or three times in a row as it may cause events to not occur. Also, events may not occur if some other unrelated event hasn't yet occured. * BREAK and PLEASURE do not affect passion (except for neglecting it, which may cause it to go down). * Blackjack...play on July 8th and can win up to 32K on the double up, if starting with 10K or more yen. --Cevn McGuire * once a player's "specialty" area is maxed at 160, can go as low as 156 before reupping. When reupping, get 4 points instead of usual 2-3! If max out one area early in the game, then this allows for more points overall, because you don't have to pick that area as often. --Cevn McGuire. 3. Characters ============= Characters as they are listed in the CG ROOM: Mikae Morikawa Remi Himekawa Miyuki Tanaka Mayumi Kamijo Chiemi Fujimoto Misako Sayama Ryoko Shimazaki Arisa Miyoshi Yumi Matsumiya Anze n.b. names do not appear until you've met and spoken to the characters. Anze's name doesn't show up until the end since you don't remember. I had a 90% completion her and STILL didn't have her name I chose her at the end. 4. Character 'Affiliations' =========================== Each girl appears to have some sort of stat or hobby that interests them that you have to keep up. Mikae Morikawa -> NOT Scholarship. Remi Himekawa -> Scholarship (do lots of STUDY). Miyuki Tanaka -> Art (do lots of ART LEARNING) Mayumi Kamijo -> Appearance (do lots of FASHION) Chiemi Fujimoto -> Physical Strength (do lots of SPORTS) Misako Sayama -> no stat requirement (do lots of PLEASURE) Ryoko Shimazaki -> no stat requirement (you need lots of key events, though) Arisa Miyoshi -> no stat requirement (do lots of PLEASURE) Yumi Matsumiya -> save Mayumi from Mikisaki AND Scholarship (do lots of STUDY) Anze -> Passion 5. Character Events =================== Okay, this part's not like a tip sheet in the above section. Continue reading if you want to know when you need to do things to get a particular girl. n.b. save often. Sometimes events occur randomly or may not appear at all (reload and try again). * next to the name denotes probably has some other stats requirement, since I couldn't always follow the directions and get it. Mikae Morikawa * one of the more straight-forward characters, extremely easy to get. * keep all your promises (okay, you might be able to get away with missing one or two, but not the last one) * be nice to her and always try to go home with her * July 9: chance to go home with Mikae after school. Go home with Mikae. * July 14 to July 16: it'll be raining after school. Share umbrella with Mikae. * August 3 to August 14: run in with Mikae in front of flat during daytime if you chose PLEASURE any time of day. She'll set up a date. * August 15: date with Mikae during daytime (DON'T FORGET). * August 26: Toshio trying to pick up Mikae at school. Go after Mikae (this might have an impact, I'm not sure). * NOTE: Mikae's birthday is on September 28th. * September 22: after the exam, Mikae'll set a date during the evening of the 28th. * IMPORTANT: if your grades are too high, Remi'll also ask you for a date. It means you've screwed up, since there's NO way to weasel your way out of it! (correction: if you set Remi's date on the 27th and forget Remi's date, you can still get Mikae. Thanks to DarkHawk for pointing this out). If you set it up on the 28th, she'll walk in on you and Mikae and Mikae's pts'll drop bigtime. * NOTE: Get a gift for Mikae! * September 28: get together with Mikae during the evening (DON'T FORGET). * Mikae Morikawa and Remi Himekawa are opposites (ie: you could only get one but not the other in one run). Remi Himekawa * one of the more straight-forward characters. More work involved. * July 8: run into Remi at school * July 10: run into Remi at school, get ranted at by Kameo * Around July 12: run into Remi at school (rock scissors paper) (I got this one on July 11 for some reason). * July 16: run into Remi during daytime (~5pm) * July 21 to July 23: talk with Remi after school, choose walk home together. * August 11 to August 15: Remi'll drop by. If you have the rabbit pendant, she'll ask about the pendant. Give her the pendant. In any case, she'll set a date. * August 17: date with Remi (at library) during daytime (DON'T FORGET). Say 'don't worry, I've just arrived too' and DON'T say 'love hotel' in the next choice. * IMPORTANT: keep your scholarship HIGH (ie: 160!) * September 17: you ask for a date with Remi, but she says only if your marks are good (ie: no.1). You'll need a 160 in Scholarship and study the day before the exam to make no.1. * IMPORTANT: keep studying! * September 22: Remi'll ask you for a date if you got no.1. in class. Choose 27th unless you want trouble with Mikae (not a factor if you shun Mikae, though). * September 26 or September 27: if you chose to date Remi on 27th, then she'll be kidnapped. Choose the LEFT road for the shortcut (doesn't matter, really). * choose her in the end. * Mikae Morikawa and Remi Himekawa are opposites (ie: you could only get one but not the other in one run). Miyuki Tanaka * not too difficult to get her. Keeping your art level high is essential. * July 8 to July 23: max out your ART so that Miyuki'll notice you (I think you need about 100 (correction: I got her second time with art around 70. Confirmed by Vendetta.)). * July 28 to August 22: run into Miyuki in front of park during daytime or evening (NOT night). She'll ask you if she was a bother, say 'of course not'. * August 17 to August 23: run in with Miyuki at central park (if doing ART) during daytime or evening and set up date * August 24: date with Miyuki during daytime (DON'T FORGET) * August 25: Miyuki'll set another date for the daytime of the 31st * August 31: second appointment with Miyuki during daytime (lay) (DON'T FORGET) * choose her in the end. Mayumi Kamijo * * one of the tougher characters to get in the game. The game seems to be fickle. * July 6: if doing FASHION at NIGHT, run in with Mayumi at the train station at night (almost mistake her for a hooker) * July 14 to July 16: it's raining. Turn down Mikae's offer to share her umbrella and Mayumi'll turn up and walk home with you. * July 17 to July 31: go out for PLEASURE or FASHION during the evening and you'll go on a date/meal with Mayumi. * July 29 to August 15: choose PLEASURE or FASHION at night to run into Mayumi in the back streets (hotel). * NOTE: the following step is CRUCIAL. I had to double FASHION just to get it, and I can't always get it. * August 16 to August 29: choose FASHION at evening? night? and Mayumi'll run into you and drop her underwear. * August 31: run in with Mayumi about her sold clothes if you got her underwear. Give it back and she'll set up a date on September 7th. * September 2: save Mayumi from Mikisaki (if you got Mayumi's underwear before). * September 7: run in with Mayumi (lay) at the train station during evening. Say that you're lovers and go to a love hotel. * choose her in the end. Chiemi Fujimoto * pretty easy to get. Keep high appearance and high physical strength. * be generally nice to her. * keep your physical strength and appearance high. She'll call you a hunk. * Chiemi..no point difference if you say "masc" or "fem" during encounter in park. At the swim meet, no point diff between 'great body' or 'nice suit', although her reaction to nice suit is better. If you don't compliment her on jogging "10K", no further meetings. --Cevn McGuire * July 13 : run into Chiemi at central park if you do SPORTS during daytime. * July 25 to August 15: run into Chiemi during daytime in central park * July 27: opportunity to compliment Chiemi. Tell her that 'she has a great body'. * August 1 to August 15: run in with Chiemi in central park if you do SPORTS during the daytime (catapiller?) * August 17 to August 28: run in with Chiemi at the beach (if doing sports) * August 18 to August 30: run in with Chiemi (lay) at beach if doing sports during evening. * choose her in the end. Misako Sayama * pretty easy to get. * July 2 to July 20: choose PLEASURE at night to run into Misako at the park. * July 8 to July 30: choose PLEASURE at night. If it's the second time you run into Misako, she'll take you to a bar. Say 'I can't believe he dumped you'. * September 3: Misako shows up at the college. * September 4: Choose to help Remi with the festival. Kameo will drop a box on your foot and you'll need to see Misako. Say that you're used to it, you don't have anyone else special in your life and 'going to woo her'. * choose her in the end. Ryoko Shimazaki * complicated to get. You have to get ALL of these events or it WON'T work (I lucked out the first time, then had TONS of trouble trying to get it the next time). * NOTE: the following event is key, or you won't get past the part that uses that info later. * August 1 to August 3: If your (art? passion?) is high enough if you're out doing art, you'll see run into Ryoko's brother in the backstreets and Akane'll think he's a porn movie producer. * August 10 to August 20: Choose SHOPPING or PLEASURE during daytime. Ryoko's brother asks you what you think of Sonoko Takahashi. Say that you like her. * September 1: Ryoko's introduction * September 3: Run in with Ryoko on the roof. Say that OK about being her friend. * September 8 to September 10: Kazuhiko shows you Sonoko Takahashi's CD and you find infer her secret. You'll run into her again and be all thumbs. She'll run after the bus. * September 9 to September 13: Ryoko meets Mikae. Mikae leaves. In class, Ryoko'll notice you're acting funny. She'll later admit her secret. Tell her that you like her and that your opinion of her won't change if she were Sonoko Takahashi. * September 13 to September 17: Run into Ryoko's brother during the morning. * September 17 to September 19: Ryoko and her brother will be talking. You'll think he's trying to convince her into doing a porn movie. The truth'll come out, Ryoko'll get pissed and she'll run away with you. DON'T kiss her. Walk her home instead. * September 18 to September 20: The next day she won't be in class. * September 18 to September 26: Ryoko (lay) shows up to your flat after running away from home if doing SPORTS at NIGHT. Tell her that you love her. * September 19 to September 27: Following the previous day, Ryoko tells you what happened with her brother. * choose her in the end. Arisa Miyoshi * complicated to get. Time-critical. * July 28 to August 3: run into Arisa at beach if doing SPORTS at any time of day * August 1 to August 8: choose PLEASURE during the evening to pick up an envelope (from God of Luck) at train station. Arisa'll pop up. Say 'Ok, I'll hang out with you'. She'll later ask if there's something you like. Say 'Yes'. Choose to go home together. (I had to study during daytime first to get this to work for some reason) * August 9: Kazuhiko gives you back the money you lent him if you're seeing Arisa and on the right track. * August 10 to August 20: STUDY at home. Arisa shows up if you picked up the envelope. Say 'you look better with a smile on your face'. * August 20: if you do sports on this day, Kazuhiko'll come on to you. * August 21: Kazuhiko comes back for his game he lent you. * August 27 to August 30: do PLEASURE during the daytime. You'll run into Arisa at the train station (lay). * September 30: if you went to the beach on August 20th, Kazuhiko'll come over and profess his love. * choose her in the end. Yumi Matsumiya * * probably the toughest character in the game to get. * you have to get ALL of Mayumi's plot, plus: * maintain a high scholarship * September 13 to September 18: PLEASURE at night. She'll be drunk and take you back to her place after you get hurt. Say 'I don't think so', and hug her. * choose her in the end. Anze * not too complicated to get but somewhat elusive. * to have her come back, you have to have HIGH passion (I usually kept it from 90-99. It's important to have it high by September 30 if it drops, though). * August 1 to August 5: Anze-neko (neko = cat) shows up if you do SHOPPING during the evening and if you have the wings of an angel (up August 5). Take the kitten in. * August 10: Anze'll transform if you do FASHION during the evening and if you've taken in the kitten that showed up. * choose her in the end. If you don't remember her, then your passion wasn't high enough. 6. Character Type ================= All types have the following max stats: Passion 99 Appearance 160 Scholarship 160 Physical Strength 160 Art 160 Normal: - different characteristics are about equal Intellectual: - difficult to maintain a high art level? - easier to get scholarship Sportsman: - difficult to maintain a good appearance - easier to get physical strength Playboy: - difficult to maintain a high physical strength - easier to get appearance 7. Items ======== You can usually buy the stuff for yourself often. Unusual items generally don't generally restock if you own one (though I managed to get two wings for some reason). For yourself: Energy Drink (3000 yen) - reduces fatigue by 20 - increases physical strength by 20 Study Book (3000 yen) - increases scholarship by 10 Art Book (3000 yen) - increases art by 10 Adult Magazine (3000 yen) - increases passion by 5 - reduces fatigue by 20 For girlfriend: Accessory (6000 yen) Cuddly Toy (6000 yen) Flowers (9000 yen) Unusual items: Rabbit pendant (500 yen) - increases appearance and art by 5 - give to Remi Misanga of passion (3000 yen) - increases passion by 20 Wisemans jeans (12000 yen) - increases passion, appearance, scholarship, physical strength, and art by 10. Wings of an angel (10000 yen) - appears only in JULY. - increases passion by 20 - required for Anze to appear Red Bracelet (10000 yen) - appears only in AUGUST. - does not appear to do anything immediately - increases luck. Buy a lotto ticket and win. Golden Frog (20000 yen) - appears only in SEPTEMBER. - does not appear to do anything but waste money - clean a man of all sins? Maybe increases all girls pts? 8. Fortune Teller ================= The 9 subjects that the fortune teller will talk to you about are: "You may find luck if you get bad test results on purpose... Or something good may happen if you keep your grades up, it depends on you..." This refers to being able to get Remi or Mikae. You can't get both in one run. If you get high enough marks to date Remi, Mikae'll dump you (only way around it is if you set Remi's date on the 27th and forget your promise). "You will have trouble with water..." This refers to Arisa and the swimming competition. "I see ears...a tail...this animal is...it looks like, no! It's something else." This refers to Anze. "Do not pursue one matter but concern yourself with many matters, you will have more chancemeeting women if you do so." This refers to Miyuki and Chiemi, who you run into only if you pursue their hobbies. "Also, if you make a promise with a girl never break it, you may never be able to make up for it." This refers to all girls in general. If you fail to show up for a date, it is nearly impossible to make up for it (except Mikae's and Remi's FIRST date). "This is serious...a girl is in need of help in the student counsel room..." This refers to Mayumi and Mikisaki's attempt to rape her. "A female teacher... I see a female teacher... A female teacher... (could it be Miss Yumi)" This refers to Yumi after Mikisaki leaves school. "This time it's for real...hum, I see 2 college girls... it's important to keep a promisewith a girl..." This refers to Mikae's and/or Remi's date in September. "By the way, do you like cats?" This probably refers to Anze AFTER she's wiped your memory. 9. Locations ============ SPORTS -> central park, beach, in front of flat ART LEARNING -> central park, school STUDY, BREAK -> at home FASHION -> train station, at home SHOPPING -> train station, love hotel WORK -> train station 10. Key Dates ============= This listing provides a rough date as to when events occur in the game. Not all of them are correct for each girl, though. n.b. some lines have another date included. This is the 'up to' date. I haven't figured it out yet, but it means that the even can either happen a) from the date to that date, or b) specifically on that date. n.b. most things 'at school' will be part of the daytime n.b. some dates are approximate, dependent on other events n.b. save often. Sometimes events occur randomly n.b. some events are dependent on your stats. I haven't worked those out yet, though, so try to keep your stats as high as possible. n.b. try to avoid doing something two or three times in a row as it may cause events to not occur. Also, events may not occur if some other unrelated event hasn't yet occured. * means automatic - means in a specific place + means automatic if another previous event occurred Global * Mikae will drool over you if your appearance is high, be disgusted with you if your appearance is really low. * Yumi'll be happy if your grades are high. * Chiemi'll want to walk home with you if you have a high appearance.

You can save, but that's just about it. + if Kazuhiko came on to you before in August on the beach, Kazuhiko may show up and tell you he loves you (is he gay?!). 11. Frequently Missing Pics =========================== - Mayumi -> on July 14 (up to 16th), if you go with Mikae, Mayumi'll show up and you'll go home with her. - Mikae -> on July 14 (up to 16th), if you don't go with Mikae, she'll see you with Mayumi and run off. - Arisa -> on August 27, choose 'I'm coming' or 'I can hold it' (whichever you didn't choose the first time round). 12. Advanced Tips ================= - MIDI is played through the default MIDI mapper. If you've got a wavetable soundcard and it's set as default, you're in for a treat. - pressing ALT-ENTER can get the game to run in a window. - the file SAVE contains all the slots for your save games. To back up the saves, just copy SAVE. - the file END holds the information containing what's been completed and what's not. 00h means not completed, FFh means completed. To get all the pics, fill the file with FFh (or character 255). To do with in EDIT, create a new file, hold ALT, press the numbers 2 5 5 on the NUMERIC pad, and release ALT. Repeat ALT 2 5 5 255 more times and save the file as SAVE in your TL directory. Tada! Instant fix. Not too difficult. 13. Tidbits =========== * Toshio is dating Ayeka, Sasami, and Ryo-ohki? What about Mishoshi and Ryoko?! (Tenchi Muyo reference) * Akane in the game is making a cameo, probably from another game that hasn't been yet translated (Venus Select) (thanks to Orochi for pointing this out). * if you don't run into Misako after the first time in July, you could still choose her in the end. And she'll know you? Is this right? (thanks to Shooter for pointing this out). * Urusei Yatsura reference (Sakura at Tomobiki) during intro of Misako as school nurse (thanks to Cevn McGuire for pointing this out). 13.5. Making A Difference ========================= If you think about it, if you don't pursue particular girls, something bad happens to them: * Mayumi gets raped by Mikisaki (well, if Yumi doesn't happen to catch him). * Remi gets kidnapped and raped by that panty snatcher. * Anze (probably) doesn't find her wings and spends the rest of her life as a cat.

Rant ==== Feel free to distribute this file, just don't rip off my name from it or start altering it adversely. This represents a weeks worth of work in the little spare time that I have which I could've spent doing something else. Thanks. Kudos to Vendetta for pointing out that you don't need Art 100 for Miyuki. Kudos to DarkHawk for pointing out that you can get Mikae if your scholarship is high by intentionally forgeting the date with Remi (but she's been kidnapped!). Kudos to Shooter for pointing out mistakes in the guide that I neglected to fix after all this time! Kudos to Otaku and PARSLEY for releasing such a great game! Kudos to Vendetta and brian for catching the mistake with the girl item prices. Kudos to Cevn McGuire for pointing out some mistakes and adding some tips. Kudos to Orochi for pointing out that Akane is from Venus Select, another PARSLEY game.
