Gay Option: Zigzagged. At the end of the School Festival, Shin confesses his love to you, but before you could have the chance to answer, he is abruptly killed. How this is played out depends on your gender: If you play as a male, it's a subversion; having an option to date a gay man among other girls only for that option to cut short. However, if you play as a female, then it's being the only straight option among other girls to date that is subverted. |

Your time spent with her is cut short when the treating team in the real world catches on to Satomi's rogue actions and pull the plug on the AI, but you make a full recovery with no ill effects. |

But Thou Must!: The third question of the final exams asks the amount of poison injected to kill Yoshida. You wouldn't even know that specifics of her death, but all three options display '17ml', which happened to be correct. Should you choose to wake from the simulation, the doctor first asks you to try and remember your name. You get a name entry prompt like at the start of the game, but it defaults to "Satomi" rather than "Yuki". No matter what you put in, the protagonist will refer to themselves as Satomi. |

Eldritch Abomination: In this setting demons are distinct from magical creatures such as unicorns and familiars (like Hoshi the talking dog), since they come from other planes of existence and need to be summoned. The ones that appear are pretty freaky, and part of the story deals with who could have summoned them and why. It's all irrelevant, since the whole world is a simulation anyway. |

Happy Ending: In choosing not to awaken, you can request that Satomi reset the simulation so you can live your life in the simulation with the girl you've chosen to romance. After the reset, you decide to remove Satomi from your newfound life — by stabbing at the operation site on your skull to destroy her AI chip. |

Hope Spot: If you spend your time studying outside your room to improve your stats, you get a bonus to that increase if it's raining. The game has a habit of situating events during rainy days, which can be a disappointing outcome if the player had planned to study then. |

Shout-Out: The history lessons state that several historical figures such as Cleopatra or Amelia Earhart were magical girls, a notion that was briefly explored in Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Satomi’s heart-shaped pen is similar to the one Monika has. It’s a subtle clue that she’s the villain. |

Last-Second Ending Choice |
| How To Date A Magical Girl! (Visual Novel) / int_fb2ff597 |
comment |
Last-Second Ending Choice: For all the interactions you've made and skills you've developed, the only choice that really matters is the last, which affects which of the Multiple Endings you see. Bad Ending: You follow Satomi's orders and wake up from the simulation. You make a full recovery from your coma and are asked to recall your name. No matter what you put, you will identify yourself as "Satomi", implying the AI has taken over. Happy Ending: In choosing not to awaken, you can request that Satomi reset the simulation so you can live your life in the simulation with the girl you've chosen to romance. After the reset, you decide to remove Satomi from your newfound life — by stabbing at the operation site on your skull to destroy her AI chip. Mystery Ending: You choose not to awaken, and opt to romance Satomi at the very end. After a moment of deliberation, Satomi agrees on the offer. Your time spent with her is cut short when the treating team in the real world catches on to Satomi's rogue actions and pull the plug on the AI, but you make a full recovery with no ill effects. |
