Description
Welcome to Figures of Happiness, a love story that goes beyond life and death! When beautiful Minamo is killed in an accident, she's filled with regret at not confessing her love for Satoru. When she asks Ryo to loan his life force to her so she can find love, everyone's in for a very bumpy ride!
Story Background
Minamo is a pure and romantic girl who can be quite clumsy at times, and she's in love with the handsome Satoru, a boy in her class. While working at her part-time job, Minamo spies Ryo and Mio as they eat together, their love for each other clearly visible in their eyes. She wishes she could sit like that with Satoru, but she knows that she's too shy to ever come out and confess her feelings to him.

Soon after, Minamo is killed in an accident. Filled with remorse at not seizing her chance for love while she was alive, she visits Ryo and asks for his help. If he'll lend her his own life force, she'll be able to tell her feelings to Satoru. Ryo doesn't know until it's too late that lending Marimo his life energy will turn him into a lifeless spirit!

And so the wheels of fate turn, winding the destinies of everyone together: dead Marimo and her reluctant helper Ryo; the pure Mio and her carefree twin sister Mao; the competitive Kokoro, who won't give up Satoru without a fight; the lonely spirit Izumi; and the perplexing Soul Collector. What twists and turns await this cast of characters before the final act is played? The longest and most complex game ever released by G-Collections -- dont miss it!

WALKTHROUGH
===========
1. General Information
----------------------
Figures of Happiness is a very long, complex game. And it could be split into two parts--pre-possession of Satoru's body, and post-possession. Prior to your possession of Satoru's body, you have to make certain choices that ensure you will be able to take over his body. Otherwise, the game will quickly move to the normal ending with Mio. In addition, you will need to make certain choices in order to open up the character paths. After you possess Satoru's body, you will need to make the "right" choices in order to go on some characters' paths. Minamo and Mio have multiple possible endings, and I will note them in the Detailed walkthrough section below.

In addition, for each character there is an ending that will lead to a credits roll in conjunction with the ending theme song. There are alternative endings where the credits won't appear. So for identification purposes, I will regard the endings with credits roll as the "True Ending" for that character, because there is only ONE such ending for each character (aside from Mio). Also, please note that in some instances, there is a post credits ending. Finally, Minamo has a special "In the Light" path that will be further discussed in the next section.

At various points in the next section, I will put a note "(Album:xxx)" to indicate the sex scene for the character.
2. Detailed Walkthrough
-----------------------
A. Miss Death's Route
---------------------
a) listen to Minamo's request [note: this is not really a choice. If you deny Minamo's request, you will automatically go to a bad ending.]

b) pick up handouts

c) think twice

d) listen to her

e) let off some steam

f) not at all

g) catch her

h) pinch your cheek

i) I have no choice (Album: With Miss Death Part 1)

j) shut up and leave

k) make excuses

l) follow Mao [key decision! You MUST follow her in order to open Mao's path.]

m) flirt with Minamo

n) kiss her gently

o) listen [key decision! You MUST listen to her to move on to part two of the game.]

-----SAVE HERE as Save 1----

p) decide now! [key decision! Same reason as above.]

q) indulge yourself

r) mystify

s) stop both girls

t) I can't decide now

u) Yes, I do (Album: With Miss Death Part 2)

v) Leave the room quietly [key decision! This will lead you to Mao's path.]

----SAVE Here as Save 2-----

w) look after Mio

----SAVE HERE as Save 3-----

x) I can't decide

This takes you to Miss Death's normal ending, and also her post credits ending. In order to get her post credits ending (or "True Ending"), you have to unlock both sex scenes with her.

B. Mao's Route
--------------

Load File 2.

w) chase Mao

----SAVE HERE as Save 4----

x) Kiss Mao (Album: With Mao)

This takes you to Mao's normal ending, and also her post credits ending. The key decision is to return Mao's love towards you at decision (x).

Load File 4. If you choose to "Hug Mao" at decision (x), you will get the normal ending. If you "can't reward Mao's feelings," you'll get a bad ending.

C.1 Mio's True Ending
---------------------

Load File 3.

x) with Mio

This takes you to Mio's True Ending, or what I would call the "Hard Knocks" ending.

C.2 Mio Alternate True Ending
-----------------------------

Start fresh with a NEW GAME.

a) listen

b) don't pick up handouts

c) lend her your life force

d) run away

e) patience!

f) to be honest

g) catch her [key decision! You need to catch her to open Narumi's path.]

h) pinch your cheek

i) get away

j) comfort Minamo

k) dash and shake her off

l) go back to the hospital

m) flirt with Minamo

n) listen to Minamo

o) decide now!

p) indulge yourself

q) mystify

----SAVE HERE as Save 5----

r) stop Minamo [key decision!]

s) with Mio [key decision!]

t) don't say a word [Key decision! You MUST make this decision in order to open the door to Mio's alternative true ending.]

u) stop Minamo

v) tell her what you think

w) confess

----SAVE HERE as Save 6----

x) I still love Mio [key decision!] (Album: With Mio Part 3)

This is the ONLY path that allows you to unlock Mio's third sex scene. Inaddition, there is a special post credits ending. And in my opinion, it's the best ending in the game for Mio.

This storyline is a test of the love between Mio and Ryo. Can Ryo trust Mio enough to tell her the truth about what happened? Can Mio accept what Ryo tells her?

C.3 Mio's Bad Ending
--------------------

Load File 6.

x) despair

This is a stunning ending. What happens if the couple fails the test of trust? This ending answers that question.

D.1 Minamo's True Ending
------------------------

Load File 3.

x) with Minamo

This takes you to Minamo's True Ending. The ending scene is very touching and romantic. But I honestly don't understand why Angel Smile would make this ending Minamo's True Ending.

D.2 Minamo's Alternate Ending 1
-------------------------------

Load Save 5.

r) stop Mio

s) with Minamo

t) stop Kokoro

u) get excited

v) uncover the identity [Key decision! You MUST make this choice to open Narumi's path.]

----SAVE HERE as Save 7----

w) tell Minamo the truth

----SAVE HERE as Save 8---- [note: the big moment finally arrives. How will you respond to Minamo's confession?]

x) don't answer now (Album: With Minamo Part 1)

----SAVE HERE as Save 9----

y) Minamo and I together (Album: With Minamo Part 2)

[note: The game continues on to Minamo In the Light path when you reach this ending for the first time. After that, you will end normally when you play this path again.]

This is the longest path in the game. And it's also very bittersweet.

D.3 Minamo In the Light Route (aka Minamo's Best Ending)
-----------------------------

This is where Figures of Happiness turns weird and metaphysical. Minamo becomes a point of light, and lives inside you. And you will be asked three sets of questions, with three answers each. Here's how you MUST answer:

1) go with the flow of your heart and love

2) I want to pursue the girl I truly love forever

3) accept your fate

At this point, you will go back in time (or is it reincarnation?) and meet up with Minamo first, before hooking up with Mio. Your fate has changed. This is the best ending for Minamo, and it should have been her True Ending.

When you start a NEW GAME, you will be given two choices. The second choice will take you back to this In the Light path again. (And if you replay the game
from the very beginning again, the text messages at the beginning will make a whole lot of sense to you now.)

D.4 Minamo's Alternate Ending 2
-------------------------------

Load File 8.

x) you like her

This choice takes you to a bittersweet ending for Minamo.

D.5 Minamo Bad Ending 1
-----------------------

Load File 8.

x) you don't like her

What did you expect to happen when you reject Minamo?

D.6 Minamo Bad Ending 2
-----------------------

Load File 9.

y) I can't make up my mind

Your indecisiveness wrecks your love for Minamo.

E. Narumi's Path
----------------

Load File 7.

w) keep playing

After this decision, you are pretty much on auto-pilot. The game will continue on with Narumi's route. You will eventually reach Narumi's ending, followed by
a credits roll, and then a post credits ending. You will also unlock (Album: With Narumi) at this point.

F. Izumi's Path
---------------

a) listen to Minamo's request

b) don't pick up handouts

c) think twice

d) run away

e) let off some steam

f) not at all [key decision! You MUST pick this choice to open Izumi's route.]

g) don't bother

h) pinch your cheek

i) get away

j) shut up and leave

k) dash and shake her off

l) go back

m) flirt with Minamo

n) kiss her gently [key decision! You MUST kiss her to open Izumi's route.]

o) listen

p) decide now!

q) remember past days

r) cry out your name

s) stop Minamo

t) with Mio

u) don't say a word

v) go back [key decision! If you continue to pursue Mio, you won't be able to get on Izumi's route.]

----SAVE HERE as Save 10----

w) accept Izumi's feelings (Album: With Izumi)

After decision (v), the game will go on for a while with Izumi's storyline.
You get a better understanding of her background, and her feelings for you. Once you accept her feelings in decision (w), you will quickly proceed towards her ending, followed by credits roll, and an interesting post credits ending.

If you don't accept Izumi's feelings at decision (w), you basically go to analternate Mio ending.

Izumi's path is hard to unlock. While you have to act friendly towards her prior to possession of Satoru's body, I had a tough time figuring out how to meet up with her afterwards. It turns out that you need to reject Minamo as much as possible, post-possession, and then reject Mio as well at decision (v).

G. Kokoro's route
-----------------

a) listen

b) don't pick up

c) think twice

d) run away

e) patience!

f) to be honest

g) catch her [key decision!]

h) touch her [key decision! You must grope Kokoro to open her route.]

i) get away

j) shut up and leave

k) make excuses [key decision! You must go on a date with Kokoro to open her route.]

l) go back

m) promote Minamo

n) listen to Minamo

o) decide now

p) indulge yourself

q) mystify

r) stop Minamo

s) with Minamo [key decision!]

t) stop Minamo [key decision!]

u) funny face

v) uncover the identity

w) check under the pillow [key decision! This decision finally opens the path to Kokoro's route.]

x) favor her

y) accept Kokoro (Album: With Kokoro)

After decision (y), you will go to Kokoro's ending, followed by a credits roll, and then a post credits ending. The sex scene with her is very sweet.

Kokoro's path is by far the most challenging. While it's obvious that you have to favor her at decisions (h) and (k), the fact that you have to catch up with Narumi at decision (g) was a total curveball. But logically, it sort of makes sense in that Narumi and Kokoro are Minamo's friends, and you have to be nice to them along the way.

Figures of Happiness Normal Ending
----------------------------------

Load File 1.

Choose "I can't make up my mind." Ryo's soul will return to his body, and he will continue to live his ideal life with Mio.
