Koikatu: Interactions
Contents
Introduction
Much like it's predecessor, Artificial Academy, Koikatsu's chat system is the main way to get closer to the girl you are interested with. The player will have 4 chat interactions with a girl (or 5 if the girl is their lover) during each school period. Passive interactions and Girl's initiation are not counted. To start off, it is advised that you use reactive chat.
Passive Interactions
These do not consume chat interactions but do raise Love or H Rating; the amount depends on traits and personality. Spamming the same location can lower the girl's Love and increase anger (up to 100, after which she will end the conversation Angry and break any date scheduled.) However, Passive Interactions are refreshed each time the Player starts a new conversation with the girl.*
| Interaction | Description | ||||||

 Touch |
Touch the Girl. There are 4 touch locations: Head, Face, Chest, and Hands. | ||||||

[Note: this is a rough estimate, favor and H changes can vary widely by personality]

|---|---|---|---|
| Touch the Head/Hair |

| Touch the Lips |
Love+ | Love+ | Love+ H+ |

*Note: using the potential game exploit, you can max love points in just one school period by repeatedly starting and leaving conversation without ever using the chat interactions.
Active Interactions
Unlike Passive Interactions, each Active Interaction consumes 1 chat interaction, but they have a higher impact on Love and/or H Rating. These interactions are the main way to progress quickly into Lover status and maintain it.
Proactive Chat
Start a topic to discuss with the girl. Choosing the wrong topic that didn't match the girl's mood could lower the love rating. Each Personality has a different preference on a Topic. (e.g. Lady personality dislikes perverted topic)
| Interaction | Description |
|---|---|
 Small Talk |
Related to daily life. Light topics that are very easy to get a character to open up and reveal themselves with. With a lover, has a chance to get nicknames for each other. (When already have nicknames, a chance to get nicknames confirmation dialogue) |
| Love |
Talk about matters of the heart. The dialogue will vary depending on whether the girl's a lover or not. |
| Lewd things |
Talk about sexual desires and perverted things. The dialogue will vary depending on whether the girl's a lover or not. |
Reactive Chat
| Interaction | Description |
|---|---|
 Listen |
The Girl will ask the Player a question that the Player will have to answer. The impact on Love Rating or H Rating depends on the question given and whether she agrees with the answer. Successes have a drastic effect on the character's opinion of you while failures can sometimes lower the love rating or not effect it at all. Most of the questions before attaining Friend status are from the girl's nature (e.g. likes to cook, likes animals etc.)* Body size preference questions appear during the Friend status (which use the girl's sizes, see table below), as well as some additional questions based of the personality. In the Lover status, some interactions only require you to listen. |
Table of Girl's sizes if you are asked what you prefer:
| Preferred... | Small | Average | Big/Tall |
|---|---|---|---|
| ...body height? | 0-24 | 25-59 | 60+ |
| ...body size?** | 0-34 | 35-79 | 80+ |
| ...breast size? | 0-42 | 43-75 | 76+ |
*Questions from the girl's nature always have the affirmative answer on top of the negative (e.g. "I like sweets"/"I don't like sweets"), regardless of how the auto-translation looks ("No eye"/"Sweets such as sweets").
**Body size is determined by the average of "Waist Width" ('Lower Body' tab) and "Lower Torso Width" ('Upper Body' tab), rounded down. The skin type "Chubby" has no effect on this.

Favorability Rating
Love Rating: From Acquaintance to Friend to Lover. Starts from a value of 0 to 100. Successfully maxing the rating the first time becomes friend, the second will give the chance being confessed on (or you can confess). Losing points completely while being a lover gives the chance for the girl to ask to break up.
Girl with friendly trait will have a big likeability boost when interacted with, the friend to lover increase remains the same (easier to be friends with)
H Rating: Willingness to have H. Starts from a value of 0 to 100. When fully maxed it glows in white pink (after fulfilled the girl's invitation e.g. lunch).
Girl with slutty trait will have a big H boost just by look/touch them with/without Love Rating not being so high.
