Playthrough Strategy:

1. Ending Management: Four separate endings are required. To save time, back up your save file after reaching the point where you can choose an ending. This allows you to reload and choose different endings, covering Immortal Severance, Purification, and Return with one save file.
2. Shura Ending: This ending requires a separate playthrough, as its prerequisites differ significantly. It is recommended to pursue this in NG+ or a dedicated playthrough.
3. Prosthetic Tool Upgrades: Due to the limited amount of Lapis Lazuli available per playthrough, a minimum of one NG++ run is necessary to fully upgrade all 10 Prosthetic Tools.
4. General Approach: While exploiting save files for endings is suggested for efficiency, the guide acknowledges the value of experiencing the game fully. The majority of achievements can be obtained through careful progression and exploration across these playthroughs.
