• It is possible for Mai or Hayasaka to "survive" instead of Kurumada (Anzu, Hinako and Ranmaru will always be drilled during the banquet), I'll cover Mai and Hayasaka in the next update.

• If you select the coffin that you used a hint on in the first round, you're locked into Kurumada surviving. No matter which coffin you use a hint on, Hayasaka will always be in it.

• Select any other glowing coffin aside from the one that you used the hint on, and you'll always hit Kurumada.

• Like Mai and Kurumada, Hayasaka is willing to sacrifice himself to save Gin and defeat Komaeda.

• In the second round, Mai will always be in the coffin that you use your second hint on. Unlike in the first round, Sara won't select a coffin that hasn't previously had a hint used on it. You can choose the coffin you used the first hint on to kill Hayasaka and have Mai survive, or choose the coffin you used the second hint on to kill Mai and have Hayasaka survive.

• If Hayasaka survives:

• If Mai survives:

• Hayasaka doesn't ask Sara to protect Gin if he's killed in the first round.

• I don't know how much of an impact the “survivor” will have on 3-2, but I set up an indefinitely open Strawpoll for the survivor vote here.
  
  Next update will cover the main differences in the Sou route.

• Reko's speech to Ranmaru after he removes his hand.

• Using the fake ID.

• Messing up Maple's questions.

• Losing the battle against Maple.

• If Anzu (or Sara, if Anzu was killed earlier) doesn't reconcile with Maple after thirteen rounds...

• Return to the control room after trying to return the ID card and finding out the elevators have stopped working.

• In Kanna's route, Kanna stays with Kurumada, while everyone else tries to return the ID card to Maple, which leads to Kurumada running off with Kanna in pursuit. In Sou's route, Sou sticks with everyone else, so Kurumada remains in the control room. (The Shin AI goes on to explain that there's a charger on the floor that can save Kurumada.)

• Finding the photo of Reko in the safe in the charging room.

• Operating the charge machine.

• Komaeda and Reko in the classroom.

• Reko and Sou's forgotten memories.

• Reko's memory doesn't have the most interesting flavour text. Moving on the actual differences.

• On to actual differences.

• Sara and Ranmaru in the classroom after using the steam spray on the consent form.

• After Komaeda tells Sara what she was like in the AI tests without Joe and tags Ranmaru.

• Fail at Ranmaru's charge game.

• Debating whether Keiji managed to escape.

• In Kanna's route, Ranmaru is the one to push the idea that Keiji managed to escape.

• Trying to leave the gallery after finding Maple.

• Returning to the gallery after seeing the picture of the school in the locker room.

• Ranmaru actually removed Joe's picture. This doesn't happen in Kanna's route. If you click on the space where Joe's picture used to be...

• Ranmaru accusing Keiji of bringing Sara into the game.

• In Kanna's route, Ranmaru admits he can't be the one to protect Sara.

• After Ranmaru knocks Sara and Keiji out.

• After Sara wakes up and everyone gathers in the classroom.

• I'm using two separate save files for this update; one failing all minigames and one passing all the minigames, which is why Kurumada is slightly less damaged here.

• Kurumada punched Ranmaru off screen.

• Alice meets the same fate as Reko on this route. Like Alice, Reko survives on Kanna's route.

• Ranmaru's execution after failing the charge game.

• If you succeed at the charge game.

• With everyone distracted by what happened to Reko / Alice the group do not confront Komaeda about the price they paid for their wishes in Sou's route. As a result, it's not revealed that Sou and Kanna are siblings.

• Losing in the second Maple battle.

• If Maple's battery isn't drained after eleven turns.

• Winning the second Maple fight.

• On Sou's route, Ranmaru will “help” Maple (even if you fail to pacify Maple in the first fight with her, she still doesn't want to fight in the second match) by attacking someone at random and making them unusable for a turn. This is in addition to Maple's normal attacks, which also make a character unusable for a turn, though Maple's attacks are scripted in whom they target. Attacks only occur on specific turns and only one attack happens on those turns; so if Ranmaru attacks on a turn, Maple won't attack on that particular turn.

• After beating or losing to Maple, things go the same way as they do in the Kanna route, Maple turns on Komaeda and attacks him, but instead of trying to appeal to Maple, Komaeda runs away.

• On the Alice / Sou path, Sara reflects that Komaeda destroyed Alice's life, which in turn tore apart his relationship with Reko and even rid himself of his memories of Reko after she was killed, before lamenting that Alice deserved to lead a much happier life than he did.

• This part also goes the same as in Kanna's route, Komaeda tries to tell Maple that he loves her. Maple goes to deal a finishing blow, but...

• Maple goes out the same way even if Ranmaru was executed earlier.

• Talking with everyone before the banquet.

• Gin and Mai say the same thing as they did in Kanna's route.

• Not for lack of trying though.

• Kurumada's injuries.

• There aren't that many differences in the banquet; Ranmaru is colder, but essentially doesn't say or do anything differently. Q-taro is the one to work out that Alice accidentally killed the real Hinako (in the Reko / Kanna route, Reko figures it out). Hinako can't be killed prior to the banquet, so the reveal of her being human and her coffin switch with Komaeda is the same regardless of route. If any Dummies are killed prior to the banquet, their bodies are still placed in their respective coffins before the banquet, and the lines after their coffin is drilled reflect that the Dummy was already dead.

• Finding Gin's pod on Komaeda's turn.

• Meister overruling Komaeda's objections to Sara using her wish to force Komaeda to change his selection.

• Hitting Ranmaru.

• After Komaeda is killed.

• Apologies for the short update, but I'd like to take a different approach with the fondness events* this time; namely, getting as many as possible.
  
  The basic story, key events, and endings in Kai's scenario are the same as Mishima's scenario, barring some minor dialogue changes. The one major difference, aside from the fondness events, is a new sidequest (which has retroactively been added to Mishima's scenario), and includes a minigame which is unique to Kai (Mishima has his own minigame, which I will likely cover once we're finished with Kai's scenario). Winning at the minigame unlocks a new ending.
  
  Without the fondness events, Kai's scenario is going to rehash a lot of content previously covered in this LP. I'm planning on two people crafting until the second level base is built and all base facilities are unlocked, and at least one person training. Kai and everyone else will mainly be foraging. I'll still initially take votes every five days, but these will be to decide who will be crafting and training, meaning it's unlikely we'll get a fondness event from them over that five day period.
  
  With that said, please vote for two people to craft and one person to train for days one to four. Please note that Kai's events with Mishima are different from the events Mishima had with Kai.
  
  *Your Time to Shine mechanics can be found here if you want a refresher.

• The gameplay is unchanged, you assign each character to forage, craft, train or rest each day.

• One minor addition, if you click on the base, you get Kai / Mishima's thoughts on the current situation.

• Day 1 results:
  
  Found 4 food, and 35 material (used unique ability to forage twice).
  Found 3.200 yen.
  Trained twice successfully (used unique ability to train twice) and had a craft score increase.
  Found 2,200 yen.
  Failed to find anything, but avoided injury.
  Injured.
  Increased base points by 21.
  Increased base points by 65 (used unique ability to craft twice).
  Found 20 material.
  Injured.
  Found 30 material
  Injured.
  
  Art for the special abilities is the same as Mishima's scenario.

• Day 2 results:
  
  Injured.
  Found 2,800 yen, forging score increased.
  Injured.

  Increased base points by 29, crafting score increased.
  Injured.
  Injured.
  Found 28 material.
  Injured.

• The shop design has changed – as always, I just buy food.

• Unfortunately, I have to send Gin and Gonbee off to rest, they can't take any more damage.

• Day 3 results:
  
  Found 4 food and 3,330 yen.
  Failed, but avoided injury.
  Trained twice.
  Found 1,700 yen.
  Found 2,400 yen.

  Injured.
  Used material to advance base.
  Found 3 food.
  Regained one stage of health, crafting, foraging and fighting score increased (used unique ability to increase all scores when resting).
  Injured.
  Regained one stage of health.

• The facilities are unchanged.

• Reko needs to rest, and I also send Keiji for a rest – as he's training he's not gaining any fondness points, and it's preferable to have the fighters at full health before a battle.

• Day 4 results:
  
  Found 34 material and 3,400 yen.
  Found 2,700 yen.
  Regained one stage of health.
  Failed but avoided injury.
  Found 2,700 yen.
  Found 27 material.
  Regained one stage of health.
  Failed but avoided injury.
  Found 2,900 yen.
  Found 2,800 yen.
  Found 3,700 yen.
  Found 18 material.

• The battle is won, but both Keiji and Q-taro took a battering.

• Who should craft and train on days 5 to 9 (inclusive)? Keiji and Q-taro will need to rest on day 5, but they'll be able to pick up their assigned task from day 6. At the moment, all the foragers have 8 fondness points with Kai, except for Gin and Gonbee, who have 6 due to them needing to take a day for rest. Reko, Nao and Keiji have no fondness points with Kai yet.

• Day 5 results.
  
  Found 4 food and 33 material.
  Found 3 food.
  Health fully recovered.
  Increased base points by 28.
  Health restored by one stage.
  Increased base points by 22.
  Found 22 material.
  Injured.
  Found 26 material.
  Failed, but avoided injury.
  Found 3,200 yen.
  Trained successfully.

• I build a small trap - this restores one stage of hunger for one random character each day.

• Day 6 results:
  
  Found 39 material and 4 food.
  Found 27 material.
  Found 29 material.
  Increased base points by 28.

  Increased base points by 23.
  Failed, but avoided injury.
  Found 2 food.
  Found 2,800 yen.

  Health fully recovered.
  Increases base points by 27.
  Found 26 material.
  Found 2 food.
  Found 24 material.
  Found 3,400 yen.
  Found 32 material.
  Trained successfully.

• I'll go into more detail next update when we'll actually participate in the cooking competition, but the competitions can be quite a drain on food if you have bad luck with RNG.

• Day 8 results:
  
  Found 4 food and 39 material.
  Found 35 material.
  Injured.
  Increased base points by 29.
  Injured.
  Used material to advance base.

  Injured.
  Found 26 material.
  Found 37 material.
  Injured.
  Trained successfully.

• I move Kanna and Sou to foraging today – there are too many people needing to rest due to being at red health / a battle on the next day. Plus, both of them are only two points away from their first fondness event.

• Day 9 results:
  
  Failed, but avoided injury.
  Found 33 material.
  Regained one stage of health.
  Injured.
  Health fully recovered.
