Setsu/Notes

This page details Setsu's Notes and the events surrounding their acquisition.

**This page contains unmarked spoilers!** If you're a first-time player looking for a guide on how to obtain these notes, check our spoiler-free guide instead!

Each Note's section is organized as follows:

> *The text of the note.*
>
>

* **Prerequisites:** Notes the player must obtain before obtaining the Note in question.
* **Role Needed:** Whether the player must be human or Gnosia to obtain the Note, if applicable.
* **Characters Required:** Which characters must be present in the loop for the Event that gives the Note to trigger. If they need to be a specific alignment or role, this will be indicated in parentheses.

Finally, a summary of the circumstances surrounding the Note's unlocking will be provided.

## Setsu 1

> *Strong sense of justice & responsibility. Logical.*
>
>

* **Prerequisites:** N/A
* **Role Needed:** N/A
* **Characters Required:** Setsu

This Note is automatically acquired during the tutorial loops.

## Setsu 2

*See also: Setsu Note 2*

> *Looping in different order than main character.*
>
>

* **Prerequisites:** N/A
* **Role Needed:** N/A
* **Characters Required:** Setsu

This Note requires you to win a loop with Setsu; one of you being AC Follower and the other being Gnosia counts for this. This Note is obtained at the same time as Event Search and thus should be obtained as soon as possible to make obtaining other Notes easier.

If the player actively avoids winning alongside Setsu until Loop 61, the associated scene will have additional dialogue. Doing so without being in the postgame is incredibly difficult and can be a tedious process even then, so it isn't advised to go for this dialogue on a first playthrough.

## Setsu 3

*See also: Setsu Note 3*

> *Dislikes Sha-Ming, sometimes fights with him.*
>
>

* **Prerequisites:** N/A
* **Role Needed:** N/A
* **Characters Required:** Setsu, Sha-Ming

This event will randomly occur at the start of a loop where Setsu has low Amicability with Sha-Ming. The player will begin the loop and note Sha-Ming's conspicuous absence. Setsu indirectly confesses that they couldn't help but launch him out of the airlock in this loop. The player moves on, and the loop proceeds as normal sans Sha-Ming.

This event can occur more than once, but the Note will only be obtained after the first viewing. It presumably can only occur in a loop with 2+ Gnosia or in loops where Sha-Ming is not Gnosia.

### Script

> **Player**Sha-Ming is supposed to be here, but you don't see him.
>
> No, it couldn't be...**Setsu**Sorry...
>
> I couldn't hold back... I... did it...**Player**What's done is done...
>
> Sha-Ming no longer has a role to fulfill, but... time to begin the discussion.

## Setsu 4

> *Federal Galactic Army Special Forces member.*
>
>

* **Prerequisites:** N/A
* **Role Needed:** Human (Part 1 Only)
* **Characters Required:** Part 1: Setsu (Human), Kukrushka (Gnosia) / Part 2: Setsu, Jonas

Obtaining this Note first requires the player to see the Return Of The Saint. To do so, you and Setsu must be Crew-aligned (in other words, human but not AC Follower) and win a loop where Kukrushka was Gnosia. Upon winning, a scene will play where Kukrushka suddenly appears and eliminates you.

In the next loop, the To The Hangar event will begin. After a scene with Setsu the player will need to ensure they, Setsu, and Jonas survive Day 1 and speak with Jonas at night. Jonas will subsequently need to be eliminated (be it through cold sleep or the player playing as Gnosia), at which point the player will be able to visit the hangar so long as Setsu is still alive as well. At this point the Note will be unlocked even if the player can't complete the event itself due to they and/or Setsu being Gnosia.

This Note can alternatively be obtained at the beginning of Setsu's Origins, though it is unlikely the player will do so without explicitly trying to.

## Setsu 5

> *Hopes to save everyone onboard, if possible.*
>
>

* **Prerequisites:** N/A
* **Role Needed:** N/A
* **Characters Required:** Setsu, Shigemichi, Otome

This event is obtained through the Let's Play event, which will only occur if the player is on Loop 65+ or if they have experienced Setsu's Origins. An event with Setsu will play at the start of the loop. To obtain the note, select the "let's play" option; if you don't, the event will end there and you'll have to wait for it to pop up in another loop to get the Note.

Whether the player picks to watch movies or go fishing doesn't matter in terms of obtaining the Note, but it will impact which CGs the player gets as well as what new dialogue option becomes available in Loop 1 during the True Ending.

## Setsu 6

> *Escaped certain death with the “key”.*
>
>

* **Prerequisites:** Yuriko 6
* **Role Needed:** N/A
* **Characters Required:** Setsu

To obtain Setsu 6 the player must first experience A World Without Gnosia and Setsu's Origins. To reach the former, the player must first have managed to keep Bug Raqio alive until the end of a loop where the Yuriko 6 scenes play. Once you've succeeded, win a loop alongside Setsu and an event will play. Following this the Silver Key will break, preventing the user from using Event Search. If the player continues playing, surviving a loop with Yuriko will give them additional dialogue and Setsu will also repeat their hint from earlier.

To progress, set Crew to 15 and Gnosia to 0 and go through the event. After this, Event Search will become available again. Eventually - if not immediately - the player will enter the Setsu's Origins event. To finally obtain Setsu 6, survive this loop with Setsu alive. This loop is seemingly impossible to lose as it rigs everything in your favor, so it won't be difficult to do.

## Trivia

* Setsu's 4th Note claims that the player must be human to obtain the Note, but only the first part of obtaining the Note - viewing Return Of The Saint - has this requirement. Though To The Hangar cannot be completed until both Setsu and the player win a loop as humans, the Note itself can be obtained even if Setsu and the player are both Gnosia.
