Stormy Skies / Blue Skies Achievements
I'm working on the two Achievements Stormy Skies and Blue Skies, both double for either the good or bad Ending too. For now I try to get the perfect good Ending, I have most choices locked down but some remain kinda subjective or are missing information in the game itself.

Obviously it only counts after the Gender choice.

Good Route:
Confident:
1 - Bot - Nervously Grinning whenever she looked into my direction.
2 - Top - I boomed confidently.
3 - Top - Guess.
Shy:
1 - Top - Trying to avoid eye contact with her.
2 - Bot - I squeaked.
3 - Bot - Succumb.

3 is obviously still hard but I think you would rather make a playful guess if you are confident and be honest if you are nervous to not embarrass you even more.

4 is a special choice in my opinion, both are rather neutral, which makes them neutral positive or negative. You could either:
4 - Top - I've got a feeling it could be left next? (A suggestion which most likely is neutral even if she is dubious and turns right later)
4 - Bot - I left her to it though as I didn't mind where we are, I was enjoying her company. (You do nothing but she gets frustrated as you say nothing. This could be a little bit more negative.)
As you notice, its really vague to find out which one is positive and which one is negative.

5 - Top - Scour the floor for it. (A rather obvious choice for positive, the other option lets you look like an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.)

6 - Top - Hell Yeah! (obvious, its her favorite drink and you would be an idiot to deny that.)

7 - Top - but soldiered through as to not lose face. (Obvious choice, she offers you to try her drink she loves, why would you decline.)

8 - Bot - It is indeed! (shows your interest in sea creatures, which you got a tattoo of and you acknowledge that she saw it.)

9 - Top - It's part of the human psyche, something that can't be helped.
9 - Bot - Just because somebody gravitates more easily towards a certain behaviour doesn't make it right. (<- this one)
I connect this to the question later about if humanity can change. Thought a lot about it, in the light of moral Bot should be the correct answer.

10 - Top - Yes. (Obviously would you be there even if she doesn't care about you, because you want to show her that humans can be different. This basicly creates the bond between her and the character. Every girl, every human likes it if you sacrifice yourself to be there for you.)

11 - Bot - No. (Because we are listening to her and therefore don't notice it at the first try.)

12 - Bot - I disagree. (Because we believe that there will be harmony even if that might not be the case in real life.)

13 - Top - Meekly do as you're told. (Because we are flustered by her beauty and it would look arrogant to get a headstart. It makes more sense to let the race start during the walking to the ocean. It actually is a hard choice because we have no reaction from her, its a shot into the blue... .)

14 - Top - Of course! (Obviously we follow her into the cave we found.)

15 - Top - Oh, and you believe the Rest? (Obviously a teasing question. the other choice nets you the Darwin achievement and is negative.)

I didn't trigger any of the achievements yet but wanted to share my thoughts.
I will update the guide once I found them. If you pick something else please tell us/me and we discuss it.

For the Bad Ending just pick the other choices to knock her off. even if the first 3-4 choices aren't correct you get the good or bad ending.

Disclaimer: I don't own the picture or anything, just found it cute and had no other picture.

We talked about this before, I partly agree, I just would soften the harsh critic a bit but that is just me. Maybe i get to it later and update my guide + telling my thoughts on the choices and if they make sense for such a relationship. =)

the dev has the achieves so that skews data on global achievement stuff. also the vagueness of the right answers in a branching choice game with this many possible variations makes it tedious and pointless tbh, because there is no character development or writing that gives a sufficiently fair amount of clues or feedback upon choosing it often.

tl;dr - badly written main characters cause an otherwise likeable short story to be pretty much ruined by the existence of achievements that only serve to magnify the flaws in the story writing and annoy the player once they enjoyed and played through the 2 variation endings and the omake story (which is an achievement found on the main menu, again not sure what the point of hiding it is since a lot of ppl won't even get to read it if they don't care about achieves (which many ppl don't, actually)

I played a lot of games, saw a lot of anime, movies, red a lot of books and still it was hard for me, even with a pen and paper to track every choice. I changed them one at a time, some were obvious but others were soooo random.

i knew that even before you said that i realized through my many run throughs thtat it was very hard to make out her feelings i've always known that

Believe me, I consider myself quite good at reading between lines of text and reading emotions. but if some choices are just not readible because she lacks a reaction then it becomes random

I know, but thats why I say its random as "you cant read it in the character what is the good or bad choice", some choices are even neutral bad and neutral good. That is a great idea but you have to slighty nuance it better otherwise the choice is random and you have to run through the game xx times and try a lot of different routes.
Thats what I mean with "random". The red line is hard to see if at all.

I know that, got contacted and all. Will check once I have actually time for some games again. But im sure its the most random route you can choose. I tried a lot of different ones and none worked so it has to be random.

somebody else already has both achievements worked out

I tried a lot of routes, maybe I can work on it again today. I have a paper with the choices but that doesn't really help so far. Its just to keep track of what I tried, but whenever i change more then one I could mess up and there is no confirmation either. It really depends on where the author is from and what he regards as positive or negative.
I just assume Kira likes confident guys as that would match real life. I hope that is correct otherwise most of my locked choices might be wrong xD.
