Introduction
The Interview System of Dark Rose Valkyrie is extremely complex with multiple variations for each Chapter.
In this guide is an attempt to explain as many interview variations as possible for each chapter.

DISCLAIMER: The information inside is drawn from my own personal experience (my playthrough) as well as information found on the internet (interview variations I did not encounter).

Explanation:
In Chapters 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 you will be required to interview the female members of your team in order to find out "if any one of them have defected to the Chimera Army".
  • Basically you do this by interviewing them about their thoughts on a certain Topic and asking about other members in regards to the same topic.
  • One of them will lie about something.
  • The liar is to be reported as the Suspect for that interview. (It's not going to be the same person throughout all interviews.)
  • You are also to provide the suspect's statement that you suspect as a lie and at least two statements from others that contradict the suspect's statement.
  • The number of overall Questions you can ask during an Interview is limited by your evaluation.
  • So the higher your overall evaluation with your teammates, the more total number of questions you can ask them.
Investigator and Helper
You will have a Helper/Aid who you can use to check a statement's authenticity, BUT ONLY ONCE PER CHAPTER INTERVIEW.
  • In Chapter 5, Kengo Shinohara and Naoyuki Kazami will be your Helpers.
  • From Chapter 6 onwards:
    • Kana Hazuki will become your Investigator.
    • The one who didn't turn Chimera (in my Case It was Naoyuki Kazami) will become your helper who will corroborate statements.
    • Kana can also be used in the beginning of the chapter to gather extra information about your allies. (I suggest you max her abilities and use this.)
    • You can only use the helper once during the chapter interview. To check if a statement is corroborated.
    • You cannot use the helper multiple times on different people during the same interview.
    • If a statement is corroborated that means it is true.
    • if a statement is NOT corroborated it DOES NOT mean it is FALSE just that the helper cannot prove it true.
    Variations
    Each chapter has multiple possible interviews.
    However there can be variations in the interview, this means even if the topic is the same, the dialogues and the person lying may change.
    • So two playthroughs may have different variations.
    • You can also save and reload to change the interview (the variations will not change across multiple reloads but the interview may change, so you can reload until you get the interview you want).
    • It is also possible for an Interview to have No Suspect at all, if all the the talks match up.
    Rewards
    Remember, the main objective is to find the liar.
    • If you succeed, then at the END of the NEXT chapter's interview you will be given rewards. (This is one of the reasons making a guide for all the interviews is so challenging.)
    • You need to get succeed in a certain amount of Interviews (and get good/high evaluation with a character) to get the True Ending with that character.
Chapter 5 Interviews
Interview: About Kazami
In this Interview the members talk about Kazami.
There are two variations to this Interview.
In both cases Yue is the culprit.
  • Talk to Amal about Coo and Yue.
  • How he responds will allow you to see which variation to use below.

Variation 1 - Kazami and Coo have similar taste in Movies?
In this variation everyone is saying that Kazami and Coo have similar tastes in films/movies. But Yue says they have mutual interest in Cermics.

Questions
  • Talk to Amal about Coo.
  • Talk to Coo but ask about no one.
  • Talk to Luna about Coo.
  • Talk to Yue about Coo (use Helper).
Report


Variation 2 - Kazami knows about Handloading?
DISCLAIMER: I did not encounter this variation personally. So I'm not sure about it. I found it on the internet.
  • Amal says that he has seen Kazami and Yue go to the compound room multiple times (not sure if together or separately).
  • Yue is saying that Kazami doesn't know about handloading. So she plans on teaching him (implication: in the future). it's been a while (since she handloaded) so she borrowed the compounding room by herself, to review.
  • Coo is saying that Kazami taught her (Coo) about handloading.
  • Coo also says that Kazami borrowed the Compounding room to practice.

Report
Suspect: Yue
Statements: Use the above mentioned statements.

The main issue is that:
  • Yue is lying that she is Planning on teaching Kazami how to handload (Implication being in the near future).
  • But according to Coo and Amal, Kazami already knows how to handload. Either because:
    • Yue has already taught Kazami and they are using the compound room together.
    • or Kazami already knows and is using the compound room alone (separate from Yui).

Interview: About Valkyrie Force
In this Interview, the members talk about each other.
Yue is saying that she and Coo have grown closer because Coo liked her strap.
But Ai and Coo's testimony says Coo was scared by Yue's strap.
