Intro
Finally winter is released! As the author of the autumn guide, it's finally time to make another contribution to the flowers community. Please comment below if you find any mistakes/typos/grammar errors.

This guide is based on the following Japanese guide I used when I played the game:
Japanese Walkthrough on Seiya no Heya[seiya-saiga.com]
Japanese Guide by Metetsu[ganntetu2954.blog.fc2.com]

Edit on 7/9/2022: Add spoiler tags to mystery solutions on first playthrough.
Overview
There are total of 8 endings:
  • GRAND FINALE
    Pre-reqs: RIKKA END
    Condition: All green choices (Lily blooms). You can start from a save file from GOOD END.

  • GOOD END
    Pre-reqs: MAYURI END
    Condition: All green choices (Lily blooms). You have to start from the beginning after clearing MAYURI END.

  • RIKKA END
    Pre-reqs: GOOD END
    Condition: Choose "Rikka-san..." on first choice, then choose not to go to sleep at the end of Chapter 1, 2, 3. Then choose "Give her the present." Green and yellow choices don't matter that much, but don't get too many yellows. (At most ~2 chapters of yellow choices)

  • MAYURI END Actually a bad end
    Condition: All green choices (Lily blooms) if you haven't already unlocked MAYURI END.
    If it is already unlocked, choose mostly green choices with a few yellows to get MAYURI END again.

  • BAD END01
    Condition: Failing to solve Mystery 1 at the end of Chapter 2.

  • BAD END02
    Condition: Failing to solve Mystery 2 at the end of Chapter 4.

  • BAD END03
    Condition: Failing to solve Mystery 3 at the end of Chapter 6. You need certain amount of green choices to get to Mystery 3.

  • BAD END04 A really interesting Bad End
    Condition: Lily level not enough at Chapter 6 (choosing too many yellow choices).

Thus, we planned 3 playthroughs (or 4, including GRAND FINALE) as follows:

  1. MAYURI END, BAD END01~04:
    • Choose all green choices to unlock MAYURI END.
    • Save at three mysteries. Load them, choose the wrong choices, to unlock BAD END01, BAD END02, BAD END03
    • Save at Chapter 6. Load it, choose all yellow choices so the lily doesn't fully bloom, to unlock BAD END04

  2. GOOD END (and GRAND FINALE later)
    • Start from the beginning, choose all green choices to GOOD END.
    • Save at the last choice (Chapter 6 Mystery 3). After we finish the next playthrough, we can load this save to unlock GRAND FINALE.

  3. RIKKA END (and rest of events/CGs if you want to collect them all)
    • Start from the beginning, choose "Rikka-san..." at the first choice. Choose not to go to sleep at the end of Chapter 1~3, and give her the gift at Chapter 3.
    • For the rest, although all green choices will do, to collect the events from yellow choices, we choose yellow choices for Chapter 1 and Chapter 2. Saves at the beginning of Chapter 3, then choose only green choices to unlock RIKKA END
    • Load the save at Chapter 3, continue to choose yellow choices to unlock all events/CGs.

With the reason behind the walkthrough explained, let's get started!

Re: noddy:
My pleasure! I had the same feeling when I finished the Japanese version a few years ago. Fortunately, hiver is not the end of flowers series. There are a few drama CDs happening after it, the official artbook Couleur which includes a few extra stories, and FLOWERS20 depicting each character's future at the age of 20. (All of them are in Japanese, and there might be unofficial English translation now or soon).
Best Regards

Reply to DeTess:
Thanks for the advice! I apologize if this ruins your experience. I decided not to use spoiler tags when I wrote the guide due to the following considerations:
(1) While some people choose to solve mysteries on their own on first playthrough while using this guide, there are others who simply prefer the guide to be foolproof. I don't know which side is the majority.
(2) I checked other flowers walkthroughs (other volumes and other languages) and it seems not to be the common practice to use spoiler tags.
(3) The "Overview" part right before Playthrough 1 serves as a guide for people who doesn't want spoilers: it tells them to choose all green choices on first playthrough.
However, learning that there does exist players who prefer spoiler tags for mystery solutions, I think it is worth trying. I will put spoiler tags for mystery solutions for the first playthrough - until someone else tells me not to do so.

Best regards and glory to Yuritopia :lilywhite:

A silly request maybe, but might it be possible to maybe put the mystery solutions under a spoiler tag, at least for the guide for the first playthrough? That way, people that want to try to reason through the mysteries on their own first won't have to worry about that getting revealed.
Otherwise a great guide!
