Buzz Researcher and Keywords

Learn how to find Buzz Researcher Keywords in Lost Judgment. This guide details how to acquire each keyword for Side Cases and TownGo app missions.

A whole bunch of Side Cases in this game are based on using Tsukumo's "Buzz Researcher" and finding Keywords. Once you find these words, you use them in the app to determine where the biggest concentration of discussion for that topic is, and you'll find a Side Case at the end of the road.

Getting Keywords can sometimes require a bit of legwork. Sometimes simply entering an area (Kamurocho or Ijincho) at a certain time will trigger a pop of a Keyword on your app and you can search from there. Sometimes you have to find the Keyword yourself. You've probably noticed by now the "Hangouts", basically marked on the map as green word balloons. These mark spots where people like to hang and chat and this is the place to pick up most of these Keywords. Simply listen to the conversation and if the response is "Keyword added" then you've got a new one.

List of Keywords

Here's the list of Keywords in order of how they appear on the TownGo app. If you want to see the list, go to "City Missions", scroll over to the Keyword-based awards, and press Triangle/Y to view more info:

• Yagami, saw, fraud, threaten — All four of these are received at once for Side Case #41: "Takayuki Yagami: Evil Detective?".
• stalker — You can find this in Chapter 3 at multiple spots in Kamurocho. I personally found it a couple of times near Theater Square.
• kappa — This is added in the process of doing "Where the Kappa Roam".
• body model — This is found after you finish the Buzz Researcher tutorial, automatically as a pop-up on the app.
• UFO — This one is actually marked on the map, just outside of Seiryo High. Go to the entrance outside and you'll see some students discussing UFOs.
• listening device — This comes up as part of the story in Chapter 4.
• arachnid man — This is the tutorial Keyword, which you can't miss.
• fleeing overnight — This pops automatically to start the Side Case "Dastardly Detective: The Final Night Flight".
• casino — This is tied to the Casino School Story. This one might have a weird thing where it hasn't appeared in your TownGo list even though you've finished the story. If that's the case, go back to Buzz Researcher and select the word again and then it should log.
• noise — Once you get the Detector, you can search for this one.
• Office Alone 4 and robbery — These two are added in the process of doing "The Café Robber". That case is included in another section because it's not found via Keyword.
• phantom ramen stall — This is established in the process of doing "The Forbidden Taste" and is in the Job Requests section.

Note that not every Keyword you find around the city will be added to this particular list. Vague and normal things like "diet" and "online video" are instead topics to be used for speaking to Girlfriends.
