How to Unlock Date Events
Unlock Dates at Bond Level 4
Date events can be accessed through "Bond" in the Menu, then by selecting "Interact" and choosing "City Hangouts." Only certain characters are eligible for dates, and you must raise their Bond Level to at least 4 to unlock them. "Home Time" is also an interaction feature available only for characters who can go on dates.

| Fadia | Nanally | Hotori |
| Lacrimosa | Chaos | Shinku |
Home Time Requires Specific Furniture
To interact with characters during Home Time, you must meet the Bond Level requirement and purchase the required furniture. Since the same furniture can be shared across multiple Home Time interactions, it is recommended to collect them early if you plan to use the feature often.
How to Get FurnitureAll Characters Have Memory Theater
While separate from date events, the "Bond" and "Interact" menus also include Bond Quests and Memory Theater, which help deepen your relationship with characters. Unlike date events, these features are available for many more characters, making them a good way to steadily raise Bond Levels.

Dates Can Be Done Once Per Day
City Hangouts let you invite an eligible character on a date once per day. These events include unique conversations and interactions while also helping increase Affection.
Higher Bond Unlocks More Date Spots
As Bond Level increases, additional date spots such as restaurants and the Ferris wheel become available for each character. Some locations require up to Bond Level 8, so keep building Affection consistently to unlock every spot.
Dates Increase Bond
Going on City Hangouts increases the Affection of the invited character. To raise Bond Levels more efficiently, make it a habit to go on daily dates once City Hangouts are unlocked.
How to Do Home Time and Benefits
Interactive Actions at Home
During Home Time, you can invite a character to your home which unlocks the Interactive Action feature. Your home becomes available for purchase through Property once your Tycoon Level reaches 5.
Property Guide: How to Buy and Purchase HomesApproach the Character and Interact
The Interactive Actions screen opens when you approach the invited character and select Interact.
Can Invite or Swap Characters
While at home, tap the invite icon displayed at the top of the screen to choose which character to invite.
Interactive Actions While Joined
Some Interactive Actions that do not require furniture can also be performed outdoors while in Join mode. You can switch to this mode by selecting "Join" from the "Bond" screen.
First-Time Actions Grant Affection
The first time you perform each Interactive Action, you'll earn a small amount of Affection. It's worth trying each one at least once to help raise your Bond Level more efficiently.
Memory Theater and Bond Quest Rewards
Bond Quests Trigger via Messages
Bond Quests are triggered after reaching the required Bond Level and completing specific prerequisite quests. When a Bond Quest becomes available, the icon in the bottom-right of the Bond screen will glow red, so make sure to check it regularly. You can also view the unlock conditions from the same icon.
Bond Quest Rewards Annulith & EXP
Once a Bond Quest is triggered, head to the marked destination and follow the quest objectives to clear it. Completing the quest rewards you with Annulith and Hunter Level EXP.
Memory Theater Events Appear on Map
Memory Theater events appear at character icon locations on the Map after meeting the required conditions. If multiple events are available, the event that appears is random, so it's best to clear them whenever you come across one.
Clear Memory Theater for Affection
Once an event begins, head to the marked destination and follow the instructions to progress. After completing a Memory Theater event, you can claim the Affection reward from that event's screen in the Memory Theater menu.
Replay Memory Theater Anytime
After claiming the Affection reward, you can reopen the event screen and select "Meet in the City!" to replay the same event. Keep in mind that Affection rewards cannot be claimed again, so this feature is mainly for rewatching your favorite scenes.
