How to play the mini-game
The movie theater is a mini-game that involves pressing buttons that appear on the screen similar to rhythm games. The goal is to keep Kasuga awake until the movie ends.
Many buttons will appear on the screen while Kasuga watches the movie. A meter will also appear on top to indicate the remaining stamina that Kasuga has. If the meter drops to 0, Kasuga will doze off and he will lose the mini-game. Hitting the goat yields 100 points.
Movie Theater Tips
The best tactic to complete the Movie Theater is to quickly press the buttons shown on the screen. Avoid pressing the wrong buttons to save Kasuga’s stamina.
Other modes
One mode is a rapid sequence where you’ll be required to tap buttons multiple times. The highest you can attain during the rapid sequence is 250 points. There’s also rush mode where you’ll need to move as fast as possible. Sheep and chicken will come out in multiples. Focus on the sheep to rack up points.
Avoid the roosters
The rooster sometimes shows up on screen during the sequence. Similar to pressing the wrong buttons, pressing the button that comes with the rooster will drain the stamina. You receive 300 points for not attacking the chicken.
Effects
Watching movies boosts Kasuga’s bond gauge with his friends. Keep inviting party members to join to unlock the bond drama. When the bond drama is unlocked, Kasuga will learn a bond technique that improves the class’ power.
You get points depending on your performance. The lowest you can get is 5 and the highest you can attain is 15.

Might want to change the answer for The Rugged 48 to “Nijuuniro,” it’s a character’s name not a number.
You’re correct. I just made a mistake using the guide.
Feel like you should unlock one of the sheep as a poundmate which puts people to sleep for getting s ranks on them all.
For the rugged 48 the answer is the 1st option.
thank u
Nanba hated the ijincho history movie. And i got no stat increase at all
Style and intellect went up with Zhao.
Yeah, I did the last two with Zhao, got +10 and +5, he didn’t care much for either. So much for “any” lmao
Correct. The guide has the wrong answer.
