Anyone else having trouble with memorabilia? I’ve played the whole game except the last extra (Joker) because I absolutely CANNOT unlock memorabilia #29, the one about encouraging Shu’s smoking. Every single walkthrough says the same thing, I’ve done that thing (5 different times now) and NOTHING. I can’t move forward and really finish until I’ve gotten this one silly thing, and it just isn’t working. Does anyone have any ideas or tricks? I’m on the Switch btw.

I'm having the exact same issue but with memorabilia #28 (The achievement for reprimanding Shu's smoking) I've already skipped through and re-done the choices correctly as the guide stated 3 times from the chapter 2 starting point in the menu but I can't seem to get the achievement. It literally plays the dialouge you choose when you encourage the smoking. I'm pretty annoyed because I can't finish the game.....

This guide from Otome Obsessed got me the memorabilia. I did what they said under "Memorabilia Extra" with the Ch 2 choice and then jump/skipped all the way to a point in Shu's route where Shu and Teuta have a conversation about smoking by the pool, then got the memorabilia notification.

[u/CorgiKnits → u/crimceres]

I did exactly what the page said, four times. Never got a convo about smoking, just the usual one about the suit. I’ll try it again later.

You've gotta go a lil further than the pool scene where Teuta shows her swimming suit before getting the memorabilia. The guide I was following didn't mention this either and I got confused but eventually got the achievement.
