  • Like "Shall we date" on Facebook to receive special gifts.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Common question aswered by Solmare

1) As Epilogues are Event Stories, they are available to be obtained only when the event is held.
2) Love Meter/Intimacy Level can be raised by using Jade at the checkpoint where just before selecting Ending, and doing so, your desired Ending will be available to be selected.
3) As playing Premium Stories does not have any influence on obtaining Endings, the Sweet Ending can be obtained without playing Premium stories.

About the Meiko Salon



Actually there are some things you should know in order to earn more points:
  • BASICS: to switch between the guys in Meiko Saloon, click on "Tap me" in the middle of the screen. To see which stamps you still have to complete, click on "BINGO". For more infos on how the whole Meiko Salon works, click on the ? mark on the left bottom of the Meiko Salon.
  • Dress the guy you're currently playing with the highest ranking clothes from his department (Mild, Cool, Cheerful, Calm), because you'll earn extra points the higher those points are, when you play the Meiko Salon and choose your guy.
  • Try to earn all "Bingo" stamps per day. Remember that you can switch between the guys! So first try to complete the "S" Rank by choosing the guys you see in that row. Afterwards just choose the guy you're currently playing and play with him. This way you earn extra points through him and you finish the rest of the stamps as well.
  • Pay attention when there are events. They have triple Boosts or double boost. On these days I would advice you to use the recover items, in order to earn more Marbles, which helps you to get more rare items by applying them on the event page.

    1. You can see it in the gif under the "About My Room & Avatar Items". -> you can scroll up and down the sidebar of your dresser. There you can also find you Boyfriends avatar and his clothes, as well as the accessories. ^^

    2. How come i dont see my boyfriend in my avatar room? I cant equip his accessories cause he dont show up

      Delete
    3. You get the Boyfriend Avatar after your first Avatar Mission (as far as I remember). If you already got that Avatar, then you have to select him in your closet, before you can dress him. If you still can't see the Avatar, although you got and accepted him from your in-box, please contact Solmare directly via the support center in the game, so they can fix this bug for you.

    4. Where do you find those missions? What is the first mission? I can't find them...

  2. How do you save the Transfer Data? I can't find a code or a place to sync since I don't have Facebook.

    Replies
    1. That's a good question. I couldn't find anything (beside logging in on FB) on how to Transfer your Data either. The best solution would be, to send Solmare this question via the Inquiry Form/Help in the game. Hopefully they add a way to transfer your Data, without having to rely on FB.

    2. It says pass checkpoint instead of read story? How do I get the button to say read story?

    3. ....................pass the checkpoint... After you passed the checkpoint, you can resume reading the stories. -_-

  4. What are the "Special Feelings" things for?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I'm not really sure what you mean... maybe the true feelings? for this: If you need to pass a checkpoint (reach certain amount of talent n skill points), you got a specific time limit to do so. If you can do it within this time, you'll get some extra about your chosen characters thoughts of the situation so far - can then be found in the Album. nice gimmick if you want.

  5. How can I get the epilogue / After Story of each character? I'd like to read them but I don't know what to do to achieve them...

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Once you complete the story (I think this works for both endings), you can find the Epilogue in your Album. Just go to the Album, than choose "Story" and then "Event". Scroll down until you reach the end and there you should find the Epilogue.

      Delete
    2. Thanks for your answer, dawn eire! :) I've already completed 3 Storys for different characters (all with sweet ending) but none of the epilogues for them are available to read (all grey...) so I don't know what to do... any further hint?

      Delete
    3. ... got myself finally reply from NTT Solmare, after questioning them frequently... They stated that there was an early bird event in the mid of last year. so for now, the epilogues are not available if you haven't already got them... T_T but maybe they will be offered again if demand is high enough... will see (or not)...

      Delete
    4. What? Seriously?... That's really strange. Normally you always got the Epilogue right after the main story in the Shall we date games (if there was an epilogue)...
      Oh! That reminds me that another gamer said, that the Epilogues are somewhere available to buy. I still need to search the app to confirm that, but since you got a direct reply from Solmare, I'm not so confident, that the epilogues are relly on sale...
      *sigh* I guess, that means we have to wait until they hold another special event or make them somehow available for everyone.

      Delete
    5. As expected, currently Shintaro has been released and there is the chance to get his epilogue... By reading the whole story with sweat AND normal ending within just one week?!? Seriously? How should this be possible? I mean, this would result in investing a large bunch of true money. Thats really not fair...

  6. How do i sell or trade the marbles i recieved. I cant find how to get there

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yeah, that's a bit mean for newcomers... Usually, the current event is displayed on the upper left of main screen. However, there are currently many events and only one can be seen at a time. To see all, just go to the little see more below the event sign and you get a list. There you can choose the event, here moonprincess (maybe also boosting...) eventually, you go to the event screen, where you can apply your collected marbles.

      Delete
    2. Is this about the Makato's temptation? I always go into my message box, because the message about it is still there. If you click it you go there and you can trade you marbles.

      Delete
  7. How can you get all the side stories that appear when you look at the album? There are so many and I'd like to see what they are about and how to get them. Help?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Most of them are from past events. There were only available for a certain time, but Solmare often holds story revival campaigns, so you might be able to read them too, once they hold an event like that. For the other stories, those are Spin off and availble to read at any time. I think you should be able to selevt them, if you go to the message box and select one of them.

      Delete
  8. I'm new to the game and i just cant find where my items go after receiving them from the box. Or is it once a receive them that I have "used" them?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Items like the Storage/Dresser Space will be added automatically, once you accept them in the inbox. Items like Avatar clothes will be added to your dresser, so you can just go there and change into them. Money and Jades will also automatically added. So don't be afraid to accept the items in your inbox, because they are only available to get accepted for a month. Afterwards you'll lose them.

      Delete
    2. The clothes go to your room, the other items are usually jade or koban, which is at the very top of the screen.

  9. I just finished the story with Eduard and spent a lot of money to get the special ending and everything. I'm trying to just be able to go back and re read the story without having to use any more story tickets since I already paid to finish it. Is there amy way to do that? Or if I restart his story will I have to keep buying story tickets. Seems very unfair if so considering it only lets you watch every other premium episode in the replay section.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yes, it is quite unfair, but I'm afraid you can only re-read the Premium Stories you bought again (as often as you want) and for the rest you have to play through the story, while using the tickets, again...

      Delete
  10. Say, where do you find the after stories for the characters?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. If you have finished a route, go to the Album and click on "Story" instead of "Photo". There you should find the stories.

    1. On the Main Page you can see an icon bar which currently ahows Toru's face. Under that you can see "see more" -> click on it an it shows you the current events. Choose the marble events and there you can apply them.

    Replies
    1. Hm... that sounds quite complicated and I don't want to give you the wrong answer and then you loose your progress. Best would be, you send those questions directly to NTT Solmare so they can tell you the right way whithout loosing the progress you made. Just go to the "Help & Settings" menu in the game and then click on "Inquiry". There you can see a link. Click on it and it opens a inquiry form in your email account. Fill in the form and tell them that you want to switch the account. You should get an answer on the same or the next few days (they are pretty fast!).
      Hope this helps! ^^

  13. How do i reset the game? I let a friend play it for a while so i want to start fresh.

    ReplyDelete

    1. That's a difficult question, because normally you can't reset the game since it's liked with your play store account (to save your data). I recommend you to contact Solmare directly via the support center in the game, so they can reset it for you.

  14. For most Shall We Date games there has been boosters to boost the meter level at the end. Does this one have any boosters? I'm nearing the end of a story and I know I'm going to need something to boost it to the sweet ending in time. I can't seem to find them this time. Thanks in advance!!

    1. I've looked throughout the whole app and I haven't found a way to increase the love meter. It might be that at a certain point you get the chance to increase the love meter with Jade, but I'm not sure about that, sorry. Best would be, if you send a mail to Solmare and if there isn't a way yet, maybe it makes them consider adding one (at least I hope so)^^

  15. How can you save the photos from your album in the game?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. You have to take a Screenshot in order to save the pictures. Normally that's pressing the middle button under the phones screen and the power button (to switch phone on/off) at the same time, but depending on your phone, that might be different for you.

  16. i dont really understand this meiko salon thing... is there some system or do I just place the items on the shelves randomly and hope for the best?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. When you click "Bingo", you'll see a lineup of 4 main characters/boyfriends along "Rank S" row, including the one you have currently selected. You want to focus first on getting them to come to the salon.

      You can see what "style" each prefer by clicking Home > Menu > Help & Settings > My Room (Cheerful/Mild/Cool/Calm), which correspond to the symbol (feather/flower/butterfly/moon). Note that if you don't recognize the name of the character, select Menu > Album for photos of each character. To get that particular character to come to the salon, you'll want to dress in clothes with their same style which you can do in "My room". Play around with your clothes to get the highest number of style points with the same symbol. Note that higher 'total stylishness' points also seems to bring in higher variety of characters. Back at the salon, click the girl and choose the main character from the list that matches the "style" you just chose. And then choose one of their items and place it on the brown board.

      For the remainder of the characters, I think it's just random, but your total stylishness seems to increase the chance of having different characters. Also note that if you are dressed in your current selected boyfriend's clothes, he might appear "too much" and you'll end up wasting power points with his repeat visits.

      One suggestion I also have is that you keep playing even if the bingo is full. But do it while wearing your boyfriends' clothes and with his item, since you'll get more bonus 'talent n' skills' points, which is necessary for Checkpoints.

      I hope this isn't too confusing and is helpful!

  17. Can you get a sweet ending without spending money on the game? Cause I saw some of the last items for the avatar check points are super expensice and require jades you don't really obtain by playing the game itself

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I have the same problem. But if I understood it right.. you can only pay with Koban for the normal story. I don't have enough though, but I hope that I will earn them by playing bingo.

  18. Where do I go to apply my marbles? I've tried just about every button I can think of. I clicked the "see more" underneath the box in the upper left corner but it just takes me to more sales to buy things.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Sorry for the late reply! For future events: You have to go to the Event's main page, which you can find in the box you mentioned. After you clicked "see more", you should be able to see all currents Events. Click on the one where it mentiones the Marble collection, or where there is the little marble drawing in the upper left corner of the banner. That should lead you to the event's page, where you should see an "Apply" button. However, there are certain events, where you don't have to apply the marbles you earned, because it runs on auto-adding = every time you earn some marble, it automatically adds to the one you already have, so you don't have to add it yourself. Just check the Event page to see which system they applied for the next event.
      If there still are problems with adding the earned marble, please contact Solmare directly via the Inquiry in the game, so they can help you or fix the bug.

  20. Is there away to raise your love meter, besides picking the right answers. When I started I was a bit confused so I ended up picking stupid answers. I'm near the end and the love meter is so close but I think I'll just miss the mark.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Unfortunately I haven't heard about a way to raise your Intimacy Level -_- It might be that you get a chance to raise the Level once you reach the point where you have to pick an Ending, but I'm not sure about this. Best would be, if you ask Solmare directly via the Inquiry in the app. I'm sending an email to them as well and once I know more, I'm posting it here on this page.

      -Dawn-

    2. I just got a reply from Solmare and it seems like there is a possibility to raise the level with Jade just before selecting Ending, just like I thought. ^^

  21. How can earn epilouge when I already finished the story of that cmakoto. And after I read there came an event of super early bird for makoto

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yeah, that event was a re-run from when they first released Makoto's route. This was to get new players to read Makoto's route. Howver, I heard that you get the bonus as well, as long as you already finished his route once, but I'm not sure about that.
      About the Epilogue - I think you really have to read through his story in time to earn it. But It could also be a bonus for getting both Endings. Anyways. Best would be, if you check in the Album, if you maybe have already unlocked the Epilogue by getting one Ending. If you click on Album, you can switch between Photo and Story and for the Story, there are the Main Story, Event and Meiko Salon. Click on Ebent and scroll down to the bottom. There you can find the Epilogue. Please let me know, if you unlocked the Epilogue by reading to the story once, so I can add the info here for everyone. Thanks!

      -Dawn-

      Delete
    2. I just got a reply from Solmare and you really can only get the Epilogue during the time limited Event when the character get's released, or when they re-run the Event like they did for Makoto -_-

  22. Anyone know how many story tickets one full route will take? I want to purchase enough to play through Okita's route a 2nd time to get both endings.

      Delete
    2. Marbles are items you need to collect for a special event in order to get bonus items. For some events they get automatically applied but for other events you have to do it in order to get the bonus items. To do so you need to go to the main page of the event, which you can find on the left corner. Sometimes you have to browse through the eventd to find the marble event. You can see all events by clicking on "see more" under the icon bar in the left corner. I hope I could help you and let me know, if there is still something you want to know about the game. ^^

  32. I've been playing this game for a while and when I was going through Okita's route, he required me to buy a male avatar item. To pass the stage I had to wear it on, but the problem was I didn't have a male avatar and yes I'm very well aware they let you buy them with 5 jade in one of the challenges. The thing is, I've played 2 other routes and the options to purchase a male avatar doesn't appear for the challenges. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yes, that does seem like a bug. There should always be the option to buy the avatar before you get any other avatar challange where it's required to have your male avatar wear something.
      Best would be you sent the company a mail, directly via the in-game support center, so they can check your account to see where the bug is and hopefully give you the male avatar you need to pass the checkpoint.

  33. Hey :) I'm having trouble with my male avatar. I chose Shintaro's route for the first time I played the game. So there is his avatar in my room but after I had completed his story and chose another character my avatar did not change. Right now I'm playing Yoshiyuki's route but I still have Shintaro in my room as my boyfriend. Between Shintaro and Yoshiyuki I also finished Okita and Oboro's routes. How can I fix this problem?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. During the first Avatar Checkpoint you have the possibility to purchase the male avatar from the current route you're playing. If you don't purchase him then, you won't get another possibility to do so (except for playing his route again).
      Once you have purchased the male avatar, you have to choose him in your storageroom/wardrobe. If you scroll down the symbol bar in your wardrobe, they are located under the purse symbol. It's a yellow symbol of a guy and a girl.
      If you purchased the bodies during the avatar checkpoint and you still don't have them in your wardrobe or your gift-box, then please contact NTT Solmare directly via the ingame support center. This way they can check your account to see, if there is a bug and fix the problem.
      Hope this helps and please let me know, if you have any other question.

    2. Thank you so much. I haven't noticed that I could buy the male avatar. I just though that it would change automatically like in the Wizardess Heart. How exactly can I buy it? The options during the avatar check were two attires if I remember correctly. And do I have to buy it with jades? Thanks again ^^

      Delete
    3. Hi! No problem, that's what I'm here for :D
      As for how to get the male avatar - just like I wrote before, your only chance to get it is during the Avatar Checkpoint. This is the first Avatar Checkpoint in any route and you have to buy it with Jade (but as far as I remember, you get some Jades for free to buy it... or maybe nor. Sorry, it's been some time since I last played that game). The Avatar Item you have to buy for this Checkpoint costs about 5 Jades (so not much compared to the 100 Jades Checkpoint near the end of each route) and as a reward you get the Male Avatar Character plus his undergarment.
      You can get Jades by login daily our exchanging it or taking part in the Marble Collection events.
      Like I said, this is the only way to get the bodies and after passing through this Checkpoint without buying them, you'd have to replay the route (at least until this checkpoint) to get the bodies.
