Customers

Customers visit the izakaya at night to order Cuisines and Beverages in exchange for money. Each customer has varied preferences for the properties on their ordered items. Each type of customer may visit the izakaya at one or multiple locations. Rare customers have a bond level that can be increased by tailoring dishes and beverages to suit their tastes. This type of customer will have specific properties desired for each requested dish. If you have sufficiently high bond with a rare customer, you can invite them to your izakaya for a chance for them to show up outside of their standard areas. Special guests function in almost the same way as rare customers except they do not gain bond and cannot be invited to the izakaya.

## The Rating System

Common Customers and Rare Customers rate the meals they receive in different ways. However, most colors are available for both.

* Black (Mad): The worst rating. Satisfaction goes down. Rare Customers will activate their punishment spell cards. Combo is broken. Customers kicked out will automatically give a black rating, but Rare Customers will not activate punishments in this case.
* Purple (Dissatisfied): The second worst rating. Satisfaction goes down. Combo is broken. Only Rare Customers give this rating.
* Green (Fair): Average rating. Nothing happens.
* Orange (Satisfied): Second highest rating for Rare Customers, highest for Common Customers. Satisfaction goes up.
* Pink (Perfect): The best rating for Rare Customers: unavailable for Common Customers. Reward spell cards are activated, satisfaction goes up even faster.

For Common Customers:

* If the cuisine or the beverage does not match the customer's request, they will give a black rating.
* If the request is fulfilled, they will give a green rating.
* If an additional ingredient is added to fulfill a preferred tag, they will give an orange rating. If the requested cuisine already has a preferred tag, it will still be green: a tag must be added that is not present in the original cuisine.

For Rare Customers (and Special Guests):

* Every cuisine like and beverage tag fulfilled by the given food and drink is counted as one point.
* Afterward, any fulfilled cuisine dislike tags are substracted as one point.
* Despite this not being shown for any character, the Dark Matter tag always substracts 2 points (unless it is asked for, ie. during a quest)
* If neither requested tag is filled, the total is reduced to 1 if above that value. If only one is, the total is reduced to 3 if above that value. If both tags are fulfilled, the total is increased to 2 if below that value.
* Ratings are then given based on the point total:
	+ 0 or lower: Black
	+ 1: Purple
	+ 2: Green
	+ 3: Orange
	+ 4 or higher: Pink
* There are a few additional interactions with unique effects.
	+ Giving Koishi a meal shaped after her hat will prompt a unique response and force a black rating.
	+ Giving Nitori any food item containing cucumbers, whether it was part of the recipe or added later, will give an orange rating at worst.
	+ Giving Medicine Dark Matter will prompt a unique response and gives at least an orang rating.
	+ Giving Remilia a meal shaped after her hat will prompt a unique response and forces a pink rating.

If a Rare Customer goes over their budget, they will automatically leave. If they are only in a minor debt, they will leave a mostly favourable message with a green text box. If this debt is too large, they will complain with a black text box and trigger a punishment card.

## Rare Customers

Along with the regular unlocks listed on each rare customer's page, all rare customers unlock the ability to be invited to the izakaya when bond level 2 is reached, the dialogue option *About Ingredients (will spend 30 minutes)* when bond level 3 is reached, and the dialogue option *About Beverages (will spend 30 minutes)* when bond level 4 is reached. At level 5, characters give a unique bonus. Each area has:

* A character that unlocks the *About Gathering* option, a 30 minute dialogue that gives the player the ingredients and beverages given by every gathering spot in the area at 18:00 (Wriggle, Akyuu, Suika, Cirno, Mokou, Alice, Momiji, Yamame, Orin, Kogasa, Tojiko, Medicine, Shinmyoumaru).
* A character that gives an Izakaya Item, an item that can be activated in Mystia's basement, granting a minor bonus while enabled. They could also give a kitchenware instead of an Izakaya item. (Chen, Kasen, Tenshi, Meiling, Tewi, Narumi, Nitori, Parsee, Satori, Nue, Futo, Aya).
* A character that gives an equippable costume (Rumia, Keine, Reimu, Patchouli, Kaguya, Marisa, Sanae, Yuugi, Utsuho, Minamitsu, Seiga, Yuuka, Seija).

The likelihood of a character accepting an invite increases with their bond level: at max, they are guaranteed to accept and will appear at the izakaya sometime during the day. They may not end up reaching the table, however: if they appear late into the day, they may end up stuck in line when closing time arrives and will, as such, leave.

## Special Guests

Special guests behave functionally identical to Rare Customers, but only appear during the night phase. As they do not appear in the overworld (or function as a shopkeeper if they do), they cannot be interacted with to increase bond level, and as such cannot be invited.

Marisa is an unusual case: without DLC1, she is technically a Special Guest, but becomes a Rare Customer with DLC1, as she can be found and interacted with in the Forest of Magic, where the player can bond with her.
