*silently drops walkthrough here*
If you thought I was gone, you thought wrong. Yuzu is the reason why I’m awake at 1AM writing up this walkthrough. All I have to say is please just read the story and you’ll enjoy yourself ok bye. (Also, no LC coupons for the season 3?? Lame... I don’t need LC coupons for seasons 1 and 2 /sigh)
As usual, you will need 15 points to get the SHE and 20 points for the EE. Readers have until 8/9 JST to get the EE and earn the collector’s edition. My walkthroughs are written under the assumption that you want the CG’s as well and will give you the least amount of hearts needed to get each ending.

AHHH KASUMI WHY DO YOU HURT ME LIKE THIS. I’m not crying, you’re crying (actually). Man, it was worth the long wait for his main story. From the other stories, you already anticipate the anguish and sorrow that comes from reading this title. So poignant and beautiful, our dark emperor. I was compulsively checking the love 365 app all day waiting for the story to be released lmao..
I’m finding out like I did from Professional Boyfriend that Voltage is doing some funky stuff with the love meter. Or they just gave us some freebies and I’ve stumbled upon them...but I’ll gladly take them. Typically, on the episodes with no LC choices, the choices don’t have an effect on the love meter. But I’ve discovered that for this particular story I did get a point here and there so I had to go back and figure out where those points came from.
Furthermore, we also have limited time freebies: LC coupon for Kasumi and a mission reward of 5 free hearts for reading 3 chapters of Kasumi’s main story, giving us a total of 15 free hearts. Both expire on 2/15 JST so keep an eye out for the expiration date if you want to take advantage of these. But I have a feeling, I’d willingly spend the money even if we didn’t have all the free stuff because Kasumi is worth it and that’s how much I love him lol. I purchased the custom monthly VIP membership bc you only pay $8.99 and get $10.30 worth of coins/hearts. Needless to say, I chose the hearts just so I can spend them on Kasumi's story.
As always, I try to optimize the number of hearts needed to get the desired ending and all the CG's. If you're usually spending more than ~155, I would be concerned/I'd say there is probably a way for you to spend less. Generally, 130-145 hearts is the range you'd expect to be in.
RMD requires 25 points for the Super Happy Ending. (138 hearts or 123 hearts + LC coupon + mission reward hearts). I've also included the number of hearts needed if you just want the SHE in order to get the collector's edition but don't care about getting all the CG's (scroll to the end of the walkthrough). Also, you have until 3/15 JST to unlock the collector's edition.
Alternatively, if you don't care about getting the CG's then you can ignore the choices for the 2nd and 3rd CG's and replace them with the LC choice in episode 26, which uses up 25 hearts instead of the 38 hearts needed for the CG's (you'd only need a total of 125 hearts instead of 138)
If you found this walkthrough helpful or if you have any comments/questions, please feel free to drop a like or reply/message ;u;
Don’t forget you need to get the SHE ending to receive the Collector’s Edition like the ad states above! The walkthrough is below the cut for those who don’t want spoilers.
Well, at least Kazu isn't calling Kei out about his kinks again...

You can trust that I will rise from the dead if there are any stories being released for MK or RMD. I love the 3S boys and they’re as precious as they are hilarious, with Kazu poking into Kei’s affairs and calling him out for his *ahem* hobbies while Yuzu is mostly there for the ride. I have been waiting for Kei's Season 3 and boy it was an emotional rollercoaster. We've come a long way since season 1 and my boy has changed so much since then. In this season, it actually feels like MC is an agent, you know? I've always been hoping for more action and it's also great that Kei is actually constantly present throughout the season. I also like that they tried to incorporate more of Kei’s POV in the actual story instead of just in his POV story.
Until 3/31 JST, readers will receive a bonus of 10 hearts if they read the first 10 episodes of Kei's season 3 (1 heart is automatically rewarded after you finish each episode). To get the collector's edition, you will need to read the premium ending, or Escape ending (EE), by 5/17 JST. Like usual, you will need 15 points for the SHE and 20 points for the EE..
Note #1: Typically I will choose only the choices that get me the most optimal route to fully minimize the number of hearts spent, but in my first playthrough of the story I chose the 8 heart option in episode 19 to get Kei’s POV for more content. So this is optional, but you can replace this with the 7 heart option in episode 2 (I know it’s only 1 heart less, so it’s up to you. Plus it will make the heart count an even 110/150 depending on the ending you choose).
Note #2: The game might glitch on you for Episode 19 on the second heart choice. If the heart countdown meter does not show on the left corner of your screen, then choose "Run away." and you will be prompted to choose again. Choose the heart option the second time around to get the +3 to actually register on your meter. For some reason, it doesn't register on the countdown if you pick the heart option the first time it shows up (or at least that's what happened to me).
To get the SHE, you will need 111 hearts (101 paid hearts + free reward hearts):
To get the EE, you will need need to choose the above choices, as well as the ones below. This will require a total of 151 hearts (141 paid hearts + free reward hearts):

LMAO KASUMI JUST WANTS THE TEA WHILE TAKADO IS JUST DONE WITH MC’S SHIT AND KAEDE STEALING HIS INSTANT RAMEN. SEN IS SUCH A MOM TO KAEDE AND KAEDE LOVES HIM. EICU shenanigans always get me going.
Man, Kaede is one eccentric cutie. All of the Romance MD stories have a sad back story, all very compelling and unique in their own ways. But we get to understand why our boys are the way they are. I do wish this story had more interaction with Kaede in it because it feels like things didn’t start building up until the end. I wanted to see more of the development between MC and Kaede cause it feels like it was very one-sided even up until the end. Don’t get me wrong, this story was good in its own way. Both Kaede and MC had me hollering from secondhand embarrassment but man everyone in the EICU is hilarious.
Though I must say, the 2nd year anniversary RMD LC coupons are a god send holy moly. I’m so glad I didn’t read the story right when it came out because they are only good for the month of August. We get SIX LC coupons worth 10 hearts each like... THAT’S $6 OF FREE MONEY RIGHT THERE. Plus we have until 9/15 JST to get the collector’s edition. So if there are any of y’all who still haven’t read the story, now is a great time to do it.
In order to get to the SHE, you need 25 points. With the six LC coupons, your total spending only comes to 73 hearts. If not, you will need 133 hearts (but still a pretty low amount compared to the usual LC tbh) to get the ending. The asterisks (*) will denote the choices I used my LC coupons on, but it doesn’t matter which choices you use them on as long as they cost at least 10 hearts. Also, just like in Kasumi’s route, there were hidden freebies, what a great find. Happy reading!
Keep in mind per the screenshot below you must achieve the Escape Ending (Premium Ending) in order to obtain the Collector’s Edition!
If my calculations are correct, the numbers below are the hearts and affection points required to obtain each ending:
SHE: 127 hearts/15 affection points
Escape: 160 hearts/20 affection points
All premium options in game: 202 hearts
(Walkthrough is below the graphic for those who don’t mind seeing spoilers!)
* + indicates how many points the option will raise your affection meter
Trust Kazuomi +1 (5 hearts)
“Why not find out yourself?” +1 (9 hearts)
Push his hand away +1 (10 hearts)
Ask what happened +1 (7 hearts)
I don’t want to abadon this. + 2 (12 hearts)
It feels like it’s Kazuomi +1 (8 hearts)
“No, you’re not wrong.” +1 (15 hearts) CG
Get it all out +3 (23 hearts) CG
“Help me fight back.” +2 (16 hearts)
Accept Kazuomi’s invitation +1 (14 hearts)
Play along +1 (8 hearts)
The 800 million yen necklace +2 (15 hearts)
I trust Kazuomi +3 (18 hearts) CG
I take Kazuomi’s hand +4 (22 hearts)
Ask for the whole truth +1 (11 hearts)
“I’ll always be there.” +1 (9 hearts)
SHE: CG
Escape: CG
The SHE & Escape Ending both have their own cgs, making there be a total of 5 possible cgs you can collect.

*intense screeching*
I dropped off the face of the earth because covid hit really hard and my family business had to shut down + virtual classes and finals had me dying on the inside. But, imagine my surprise when I get onto the love 365 app for the first time in weeks and see that Kazuomi’s season 3 came out. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ME AND EVERYONE STUCK IN OTOME HELL. There's just something about the way the MC interacts with the Three S's and the dialogue is hilarious. Kazu is always a treat and I think it's always exciting to see what he does next (isn't that exactly why we love him though?)
And because of anon’s question about whether I’d be posting walkthroughs for Professional Boyfriend, I am going to be posting those within the next day or two. Banri first bc he looks super soft.
Without further ado, here is my walkthrough for Kazuomi my boi. Enjoy!
This walkthrough minimizes the number of hearts you need to spend while also allowing you to get all the CG’s. In my experience, you should never have to spend more than 150-160 hearts and if you do...my heart hurts for your wallet. I think most of the LC routes I've played only needed around 130-145ish hearts. To get the SHE, you need 15 points. If you want the Escape ending, then you need a total of 20 points.
SKIP this first section if you only want the SHE. Only choose these if you want the premium ending as well, they will get you the extra 5 points you need to hit the required 20 points.
To get the Escape ending, you will need a total of 141 hearts:
